Chapter 166

Varek's blood-red eyes narrowed as he raised his hands, the sound shields shimmering around him. He took a deep breath, the air around him vibrating with power as he prepared a massive sound attack.

Looking at the scene Max had an idea and acted on it.

Just as Varek opened his mouth to unleash the attack, Max's hand shot out of the cliff like a ghost, holding a silver mirror card to Varek's mouth.

"[Mirror Prison]," Max muttered, his voice echoing faintly.

Wooooooooooo!

The mirror card absorbed the sound attack, its surface cracking under the immense pressure. Max didn't wait, he released the attack immediately, the card shattered first as the energy exploded outward in a deafening BOOM!

Varek was thrown backward, his body slamming into the ground. His sound resistance saved him from fatal injury, but he was visibly stunned, his shields flickering weakly.

Max left the cliff with a smirk his right hand bloody, he wanted make a move, but Before he could follow up, a sudden mental message from Lucy echoed in his mind:

'10... 9... 8...'

Max's eyes widened. He had completely forgotten about the cannon Lucy and Mok had set up in the mirror world, earlier when he landed he took the opportunity to have them repeat the same movie used in the dungeon, but he seemed to forgotten about It the Heat of the fight.

"Crap," Max muttered, his mind racing.

Max phased into the mirror world through a mirror card. Inside, he saw Lucy and Mok standing next to a massive cannon, its barrel glowing faintly.

'6...5...' Lucy's voice continued.

Max didn't have time to explain. He located a fragment of the shattered silver mirror card he used earlier, this one was the nearest to Varek, and phased back into the real world, appearing right in front of the stunned bat-man.

Before Varek could react, Max shoved a simple ring with a mirror gem into his mouth.

"Bon appetit". Max said, his voice cold.

He phased back into the mirror world, but Varek wasn't a pushover as he clawed down, injuring Max before he could disappeared completely, just as Lucy reached the final count.

'1... BOOM!'

The cannon fired, its shot passing through the mirror in the ring inside Varek's stomach. The explosion reached the real world, a blinding flash of light followed by a deafening roar.

K-Booom!....

From inside the mirror world, Max watched through his Mystic Eye as Varek's lower body was obliterated, the force of the blast sending debris flying in all directions.

.

Max looked at the bone deep gush going down from his chest to his abdomen.

"that's painful!", he muttered as he took out a bottle of Emerald water and drank it.

After that, he hesitated before creating a mirror image, and closing his eyes going out in the mirror body, he could handle the headache later, but for now it's better to be safe then sorry.

...

"what was the saying injured dogs bite harder or something..." muttered Max as he exited the mirror world through a silver mirror card he had left earlier, a bit too far away from the scene.

He walked closer examining at the scene. The area was filled with radiation, the ground scorched and smoking.

.

Varek lay in the crater, his body broken but still alive barely. His blood-red eyes glowed faintly as he struggled to move, his voice a low growl.

"Wow! You're still alive! Call me impressed." said Maw as he clapped with an amused expression on his face.

"You... ..."
