"Got you" Chris.

*FLASH*

Caliburn, who finally had Chris in sight, took advantage and attacked with everything he had.

"That won't work this time" Chris.

Chris's hands that had become like dragon claws without losing his human form, were covered by the fusion of armament and dragon armor attacked the energy beam.

*FLASH*

At the moment of the crash the whole place was filled with bright lights that anyone who saw them could lose their sight for a while.

*Boom*

*Crunch*

In that second interval in which the power clash happened, Chris took the opportunity to grab Caliburn and began to use her intention to remove her from the stone.

*FLASH* *FLASH* *FLASH*

Caliburn, who felt how she was gradually removed from the stone, lost all decorum and attacked Chris with all her might.

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*

Since Chris's body was covered by the power of nihility (nothing) besides the sound of the explosion from the crash nothing else happened.

"If that's how you want to play, I can also help you overload yourself" Chris said annoyed.

Six white wings appeared on Chris's back surrounding him and Caliburn.

Now all the energy released by Caliburn instead of dissipating into the environment will be isolated by Chris's wings causing the tension on the sword to increase, causing it to reach its limit faster, in a sense Chris was trying to suffocate Caliburn using his own power.

*Crunch*

Things were going well at first, but after a short time progress stopped.

(Because I can't move the sword from the stone anymore) Chris.

(That's because you don't have a clear image in your intention, trying to visualize something without understanding it is why Caliburn rejects you) Rhongomyniad.

What Rhongomyniad said was true. Chris had tried to visualize a king.

In the time of Chris's more than a thousand years of life, the lower and upper planets he visited were innumerable, the people he met were also many among those people. Chris met various kings and rulers of all kinds.

When he tried to withdraw the sword, all the teachings and knowledge he obtained from these people he was imagining, but after all he did not understand any of it, the ideals and ambitions of those kings and queens, if Chris thought about it now there were many times that It seemed to him mere hoax and nonsense, his desire was the absolute, divinity itself and power, so an individualist like Chris could never understand the concept of a king that is formed by the ideal of a person who rules by governing his people.

There were kings who took the welfare of their people as their main objective and protected them while maintaining a balance.

While others used raw power to impose order whether persuasion or coercion must be used.

Although Chris approved of both methods, things like wanting to rule or own the various worlds under his control were things that never mattered to him.

His family had millions of servants who serve them and also several worlds under their control, but Chris was never interested in this and the position of family patriarch who has to take care of these things was something that even Chris disliked, even when His grandfather was the patriarch and his "Father" was his successor, he was never interested in being the one to continue.

If his family found any problems either internal or external Chris would simply decimate him whether he had to come to a consensus or force his way through.

(A king is someone who kills so others don't have to,

A king is someone who spills blood so that those close to him don't spill it,

A king is someone whose will always burn)

(Note: relatives = relatives, family)

At that moment the first paragraph of the King of Knights technique that was the same in both versions appeared in Chris's mind.

(I see that's the way things are) Chris.

In that sudden moment of illumination that appeared in Chris's mind, he could understand what was missing.

His image of a king is not someone who rules over all people, it is quite the opposite, for Chris a king is someone who will be at the top of all, but does not follow people or order them, but is someone who expresses himself with his own actions is someone that people instinctively trust instead of expecting him to go to them, the king will only follow the ideals he believes in and fight for them, Chris's goal is supremacy, the people who will recognize him will instinctively follow him he doesn't have to do anything else, Chris's concept of a king is no different than the faith that believers have towards a god.

*Flash*

*break*

Reacting to Chris' realization despite not having a complete picture the aura of a king began to overflow from his body allowing him to draw the sword from the stone.

"THAT'S IT!"

The soul fragment that ruled the temple cried out in astonishment, but what he was looking at was not the sword in Chris's hands, but his gaze was directed over his head.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Chris.

Chris changed his vision up trying to see what was above his head, but he saw nothing when he released his perception, he could see that a crown that was floating on his head with a distance of only one millimeter, when he moved his head, the crown did with the.

"What's this?" Chris.

"That is the king's intention," the soul fragment replied.

"I don't understand" Chris.

When Chris used the king's intent, he did not visualize anything, so the intent should not yet be formed and incomplete, as it is possible for the image of a crown to materialize.

"The king's intention is different from other intentions, it does not have a defined image since it changes depending on the people, but what all the different intentions of the king that people have visualized have always had in common is that there is a crown that characterizes it, this is the symbol that will always be intended by the king," the soul fragment replied.

What Chris could understand from the explanation is that he has been able to get in touch with the king's intention, but he has not visualized it, so it is still incomplete, but when he understood it, the crown materialized.

"You can leave the king's intention for another time right now you have another problem"

"What do you mean I have another problem" Chris.

"You should have noticed it when Carnwennan and Rhongomyniad accepted you as their master."

What the soul fragment said was true when Carnwennan and Rhongomyniad accepted Chris as their master they overdrawn his powers, but he controlled them and there wasn't much of a problem.

"Since Carnwennan, Rhongomyniad and Caliburn are ancient rank weapons once they accept a master a part of their energy will flow towards you and it seems you have been holding back your energy to avoid advancing right"

Chris felt more bitter hearing these words, the overdraft of his powers didn't matter to him what really depressed him is that when he entered a weakened state he had spent most of his time training in the mystic lake to accumulate power for his advance, after that when he returned to his original form he made love with Beatriz since she awakened his divine physique and formed two divine sparks the amount of power inside him increased by several folds, after that he came to test this temple, since I only use his mental force and I fight with the intention, I do not exhaust any of his energy, vital (Prana or QI) and magical (Mana) until the last two tests, but due to the constant pressure of these tests these energies are they overdraw causing their accumulated power to increase, if to this is added the energy that they will receive from 3 ancient range weapons it is very likely that they will not be able to control their powers in advance, even though they have total security If he succeeds, the injuries he will receive will not be light and he will take a long time to recover.

"I guess it can't be delayed any longer" Chris.

Chris returned to his normal appearance as the Caliburn entered his body.

The magic circle of contracts with spirits disappeared from his hand and appeared on his left arm next to this magic circle another appeared, but with different patterns and with 3 figures inside forming a triangle each of which had a different shape in its shape. inside one had a dagger another a spear and the last one a sword.

Wasting no more time, Chris sat cross-legged and began to circulate his powers.

Chris didn't know what the time difference was between the temple and the real world so he had to speed up his progress as fast as possible.

"This kid is very strange even with the low level of existence the skills and abilities he has are top notch, if he were in the realm of god the scandal, he would cause would be no small"

As the master of the temple the soul fragment could see all the people who entered or see the challenger performing the first 3 tests, but among all the people he met none was as absurd as the young man in front of him.

Upon entering the temple, he scans the body of the people obtaining the data from him, but in the case of Chris, no information could be obtained showing that there is something that protects him.

The only thing he could think of was the power of darkness that had the ability of concealment, but such perfect concealment is only held by the primordial gods of darkness.

"Something must be amplifying his power of darkness, but I can't guess what it is."
