I returned home after 'eating' some desserts and drinking a cup of iced tea in a cafe to calm my mind after my encounter with Nicolaas. What should I ask her to cook for me? As I walked nearer to my house, I noticed a room was destroyed to the ground. It was as if the room was erased from existence. Furthermore, I noticed Yang who currently has some weird line on half of his body vertically laying on the ground calmly.
I walked towards him and asked for information on what had happened in the house while I was gone. He gave me what I wanted not through his voice, but by directly giving me his memories.
That piece of shit
That piece of shit
That piece of shit
𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐭.
I reversed time on this universe to try and bring her back to this location, the house returned to normal but she wasn't brought back.
what should I do?
what should I do?
what should I do?
"Finally! That took so long"
Yang said with relief that he now fully regenerated. Does this mean the attack only took 5 minutes earlier than I came here? I should've never gone to that cafe!
while panicking, I remembered that he was Ashura's friend and he must've brought her to him. I went through all of my avatar's memories and views. Five of my avatars are currently being tied up by chains, put in a circle formation, and in the center is Chloe being impaled by a harpoon.

It was real, this was her. I never thought he would do this.
"If you are thinking of rescuing her, well of course you are thinking of that. Let me come with you"
"no"
This is between me and him.
"THIS ISN'T JUST BETWEEN YOU AND HIM! THIS IS ALSO BETWEEN-"
I teleported away to my parents without letting him finish. I teleported into a yard, a well-kept one. There, I saw both of them cuddling on the floor of grasses. With dad sniffing her head and Mom patting his head like as if he was a dog. While walking towards them I saw Yin sitting in a chair eating cupcakes. She saw me and raised an arm to greet me, I raised my hand to greet her the same way as she greeted me.
I melted my hoodie and the mask I was wearing to let them see my body being broken repeatedly as I heal it automatically. Was it painful? Always. But it doesn't matter, it was just pain. Physical pain, spiritual pain, and digital errors. It doesn't matter, they are just the reactions of my body being destroyed. I can just ignore the reactions.
"oh my-"
Getting stabbed, pierced, sliced, cut, cursed, compressed, it wasn't a problem. The only problem I had were the flames. But I can just ignore the problem, it is just temporary.
"Mom, Dad, may I have a word with you?"
They stopped their cuddling, stood up, and faced me.
"I expected you to come here, so what do you want to ask me?"
Jay asked with his usual smile. The only unusual thing was him not drinking tea.
"What I want, is a never-ending armory filled with weapons that if ever it damages Ash, his dimension will be set to 3, powers such as magic, law manipulation, cell manipulation, and whatever it is as long as it is his ability gone. Give or take a few hundred years."
"That can be done, however, what would you lose? After all-"
"There is nothing for free"
I finished his sentence
"Yes...."
He replied with a slight annoyance to his voice due to me disturbing his "speech"
"Two-thirds of my power including dimensions will be gone the moment I defeat him."
"Sure"
A bright white orb appeared on his hand and threw it to me
"And? I am certain you want to ask one more thing. After all, both of us-"
"Ahem"
Mom interrupted him
"What I meant was, the three of us know that you can't defeat him just with this. Currently, you have more dimensions and mana than him. But you still can't beat him."
"You're right. Then two-thirds of the speed of my powers to grow, to be instantly revived in a place I desire. And he has no way of moving, or delaying it."
I can keep trying without any delays. I will crush his morale.
"Done, just use any reviving spells, even the most basic one. The moment you die, [̬̂r̬̂ê̬â̬l̬̂ ̬̂t̬̂î̬m̬̂ê̬]̬̂ will cast and stop time except for you. However, you cannot move not cast any spells except a revival spell. So if you die, you can plan your attacks for the rest of eternity and not even a point in time will move. "
I nodded. I was about to teleport away, but I still didn't want to kill him.
"If I succeed, does that mean he will die? I mean obviously, he will die and it would not even be my fault since the energy around us, will incinerate him"
"No"
Mom replied
"He won't die, his sword will save him even if he no longer can use it. If you shot a bullet on his head or burn him, he will just not feel anything. But he is still alive, waiting for the curse to be expired. And if he ever truly does or gets his concept wiped out. I will revive him myself. But don't worry, I will revive him with the curse"
I nodded after she finished her sentence. He may have been a piece of shit, but I will don't want to kill my brother, so I felt a bit relieved that he won't fully die. But I do want to kill that guy. Permanently.
I teleported to where Ashura was at using the location of my avatars and immediately used 40 percent of my mana for speed, 5 percent for power, 20 percent for defense, and the remaining as unused supply.
"[{<¦ooooh! There you are!¦>}]"
There is something weird in this place. I can barely feel any emotions except being evil. But thankfully I am above such matters. If not, then I am probably just his puppet.
I was planning on just communicating with him with telepathy, but the fact he chose to just speak with magic makes this much more comfortable.
There he was, sitting on a throne with a smile. And beside him was her still pierced with harpoons. I deactivated every avatar I had to stop my main body from being damaged. And he deactivated all avatars too in response to me deactivating them.
"[{<¦aaaaah!- ¦>}]"
He shook both of his hands
"[{<¦dont worry, that isn't her. That is merely my avatar¦>}]"
Her appearance changed from that of hers to Ash's. Wait, so if that isn't her, then where is she?
"[{<¦ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ! I fooled you! ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ¦>}]"
He laughed like a maniac
With a snap of his fingers, an orb appeared and inside was Chloe sleeping comfortably
"[{<¦ummm why are you sleeping? You ruined the moment, oh well¦>}]"
He muttered to himself feeling disappointed in her sleeping. But, I felt relieved that she wasn't hurt.
"Where is he?"
I asked hoping for him to rat out where his friend is. Chances are low, but he might
"[{<¦He? Who?¦>}]"
He tilted his head with an innocent puzzled expression. Is he dense, or is he testing my patience? I let out a sigh and made my question much clearer
"Nicolaas Schmidt, where is he?"
"[{<¦Who? ¦>}]"
He asked again with the same puzzled expression.
"I pity you"
"[{<¦ ひひひひひひひ! You, pity me?! ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ what for?! I already won!¦>}]"
I summoned a sword and attempted to slice his neck, but he dodged and instead cut my left shoulder. The impact unleashed so much energy that it incinerated everything in a 30-kilometer radius. Only being stopped due to the barrier erected by Dad who just appeared with Mom to watch our fight.
I regenerated my body and kept teleporting in random places to confuse him, but it didn't work. He just stood still with a smile. Then I died. I revived instantly just behind him, but he teleported away.
He began to wag his pointing finger towards me with a now bigger smile than usual.
"[{<¦nice try, but that won't do¦>}]"
I felt pierced in my stomach. I teleported away and was freed from the harpoon. There I saw dozens of harpoons coming for me. I erected a barrier to protect me from the assault, but I felt my back pierced. He can summon them anywhere?
I tried to teleport away, but I felt burned by flames. I died again.
But now, I won't do the same mistake.
I revived myself far away and saw him slice the air in a 360 degree by turning around. I found a chance, I teleported towards him, summoned a lance, and pierced his body.
But it was deflected by a barrier. I felt my concept erased by the blast that came after the lance was deflected by the barrier. However, due to my dad's blessings, that won't do a thing. I revived myself not too far away nor close to him, but enough that we can talk to each other comfortably with magic.
(author notes: if they just speak normally, they won't hear each other because they are moving so fast that the fourth dimension (only dimension left) is now moving up and down like a wave.)
"[{<¦ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ! Just because it worked last time doesn't mean I will keep using it. Let me ask you a question, after all this is a fight between misfits, freaks, and hypocrites. Will you obey my law, or will I obey yours?¦>}]"
I instantly used law manipulation to remove the concept of movement for him but he easily neutralized it, and with his law manipulation, I died again.
I decided to not revive on the same 3rd dimension as him and instead revive at a point in time, 3 microseconds away from where he was. But he just teleported towards where I was.
"[{<¦ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ ひ! Was that a joke? Can't you understand what omnipresence is? ¦>}]"
He just laughed as I sliced the space between us to try and cut his head off, but he just teleported a few meters above me. I raised my head and saw him laughing at me like a weirdo showing off his teeth while pointing a finger at me.
So the concept of evil is still here. I see, that is why I can barely feel anything that isn't evil. He must've also destroyed the concept of love, peace, and many more.
Finally, he stopped his annoying laugh, but he still retained his smile. I have a bad feeling about this. He summoned
He stared at
I quickly teleported near him but below him to try and aim for his legs. Just 1 hit is enough. But he just raised both of his legs and supported his foot with a magic circle.
After missing, I teleported behind him at a now equal height. I tried to pierce his back, but he just teleported his entire body to now face me. He transformed
But instead of blocking it, the sword I used to try to pierce his back was destroyed by just the spear's touch.
I summoned another weapon, now a dual knife but I couldn't move. He just stared and me with a glee face. He slowly raised his spear above and head and it turned into a greatsword. The greatsword turned pure black with fangs coming out of its blade.
He began laughing at my position. Unable to do anything. I can't move. I tried to move all of my body across all planes, but even they can't move.
"[{<¦let's test this shall we?¦>}]"
It's not going to work Ash!
He swiped his sword down and I died. And this time, I will be the one going to test something. I revived myself inside him. But he quickly teleported away the moment he killed me.
He just laughed at my poor attempt to try and hit him.
I just stared at his eyes, and I died again.
I revived myself near him but he teleported away and I died again from his gaze. He didn't even teleport away in front of me. He just teleported away below me a couple of kilometers away and I still died just by his gaze.
The amount of information he can release is just brutal. Even if I don't directly see it, just the amount of information that touches my body is enough to self-destruct my concept
This went while after some time and he just laughs at my attempt while he kills me instantly with information the moment I revive.
"[{<¦ひひひひひひひ! This is getting boring, just give up will ya?¦>}]"
He finally decided to use
I revived at a decent amount of distance away from him and launched a ginormous beam toward him with 30 percent of my mana. It incinerated him but the beam quickly disappeared and he was there perfectly fine. Then the beam came to me like he reversed its concept that was meant to kill him.
I set up a barrier that was enough to protect me from the beam but it disappeared before the beam hit it. I repeatedly tried to set up a barrier, but they always disappear. No, they weren't broken, it was as if they never existed. The mana just comes back to me.
The beam hit me and I decided to revive again inside of him. He quickly teleported away, so I summoned an odachi. I cast a magic circle near my foot, and with it, I thrust myself at him and aimed at his neck.
But I felt my neck got cut off. And to make it worse, it came from the blow I was trying to hit him with. Thankfully, the sword never hit me and only the kinetic energy did. I revived easily, summoned a pair of brass knuckles, and continued my assault.
But despite me trying my hardest, he always dodges or teleports. But I found a great opportunity, turning the brass knuckles into a spear and aiming for his face. But I felt impaled on the back of my neck. It was my spear.
What the hell? I never felt a disturbance in space. No, not even on the higher dimensions that the world cannot comprehend. It was as if the spear that I was holding in my hands was never supposed to be on my arms and was supposed to be stabbing my neck.
I was hit by the spear, so what will happen? Did I lose?
I revived myself and still felt normal. So it can only work on him. I sighed in relief that nothing happened to me. But at the same time, maybe I can use this to my advantage, no I will use this to my advantage
"Your sword-"
I said to him calmly, and by a miracle, he stopped laughing
"Your sword can change reality correct?"
He started laughing again and made a pinching gesture while leaving some space between his fingers.
"[{<¦almost there-¦>}]"
I was impaled by multiple harpoons on my back while I was down. I died obviously and just revived near him.
"And I just remembered something- that place, you were sending my avatars into. The place where they get burned for an eternity while for you it just lasted in an instant. You are not sending me there because you don't want to correct?"
He clapped his hands as fast as he can.
"[{<¦correct!¦>}]"
Then he stopped clapping and his tone changed into something serious.
"[{<¦but even if send you there, it would be useless since the moment I send you there, there might be a big possibility our dad will just bring you back in here. So, give up will ya!¦>}]"
He teleported in front of me, so I teleported away, but I found myself still in the same position. He stabbed me in the face with
I revived again and cast a big orb toward Ashura. He just dispersed it tho with a small beam he sent to me. It penetrated my chest, but I just healed it instantly.
I summoned two sabers, one for each hand. And he responded with the same. One saber for each hand. But two new arms appeared, so now he has 4 sabers.
We dashed towards each other and clashed our blades. We clashed our blades while attempting to gain the lower ground until we reached the bottom of the barrier. We clashed our blades once more and locked them in place.
Trying to hold down 4 arms was much more difficult than I thought. I made the saber explode sending shrapnel everywhere. I just let it hit me, while Ash protected himself with a barrier. I dashed, he teleported away and in an instant, I teleported to the same area where he was at. I trusted my blade but the barrier still haven't cracked. I just backed off until he summoned a long tail behind him.
I set up 13 barriers to protect myself but the tail easily destroyed half of them. Then it stopped. I teleported below his legs, summoned a spear, and tried to slice his leg. The barrier broke but before it can hit him, he just teleported away.
I spotted him instantly and cast a spell meant for slicing. It diced his body before he can think of anything. But it just disappeared. The attack was as if it never happened.
Then, a tail appeared behind his back. It was blue. No matter what the eye can see, even if you can only see black and white. No matter if the concept of 'blue' doesn't exist. It was always blue.
I cast a magic circle on my left leg to dash toward him. But before I can dash, my physical body exploded as if it was a nuke. But it didn't kill me, I easily regenerated my body due to it not being cursed. But my new body just exploded like the last time.
it was as if the mass of my body was turned into energy. No, that is the answer.
I decided to not fight with a physical body and instead just brought my soul to the physical plane. And I died again due to him killing my astral body and spreading it to all my bodies.
I revived myself close to him but he just teleported away. After teleporting, I just stared at him from the distance until he just started laughing maniacally.
"[{<¦you lesser, your trash, your mom is gay. How dare you try to touch me?!!¦>}]"
He started insulting me like a kid from a certain shooter game I used to play. And on top of it all, isn't he also insulting his mom?
He started laughing again. This guy is giving me the creeps.
"[{<¦YOU BUG! You are a lesser, you should just give up. You lesser, you lesser¦>}]"
He started insulting me once again.
He stopped insulting me after a creepy laugh of his and we started our fight once more.
I summoned a spear, and it just disappeared, so I summoned another spear but it just disappeared again. And with plane manipulation, he damaged my soul. I teleported away and regenerated my soul.
Fighting him without a physical body is more difficult. He teleported away and I saw him at my right side. I blocked his sword with a barrier but it disappeared so I teleported away.
He started insulting me once more after I teleported away. 99 percent he is just saying that to piss me off and to reduce my morale. And 1 percent he is totally serious.
