CHAPTER - 162 - REALITY_MANIPULATOR! /13.2/

A chunk of the floor below Nagase folded upward like it was rising to eat him. Kuroyami growled and teleported using NIGHT_KING, grabbing Nagase and slamming them both into a safe corner.

"Tch..." Kuroyami gritted his teeth, his eyes shaking. "This isn't magic. It's worse. It's like the dimension is convulsing."

BZZZZRRRRRRRR!!!

Electric pulses lit up like a spiderweb as Kaminari charged his body full of electrons. A spiraling tower of warped scaffolding collapsed above him.

He raised both arms.

"INDREUS... SHIELD!!!"

BOOOOOMMMMM!!!

Lightning exploded outward in a radial shield, incinerating the falling junk into molten sparks.

"I'm getting real sick of reality trying to kill me," Kaminari hissed, panting.

Arata's entire body was coated in a thin shell of rock—copied from Akari's blessing. He stood atop a spiraling staircase that now rotated upside-down, upside-down gravity pulling him toward the ceiling.
