GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Then he took another step forward and he disappeared. He didn't become invisible. He just moved so fast that they lost track of him.

They don't know how he did it. All they know is that he suddenly has a supreme beast in his grasp. This Supreme beast was far behind the warriors and hidden within the army. So it is understandable why he is shocked and surprised that he landed in one of Legion-5's four arms.

"Do you feel it yet?" Legion-5 asked the helpless Supreme beast.

His voice was like the call of death. The supreme beast he was choking didn't answer. He tried to resist but both his divine sense and all his divine abilities did not respond. Even his mind seemed to be unraveling. It was simply because Legion-5 was touching him.

Legion-5 encouraged him, "Feel it. Let it drown you. Lose all hope."

The supreme beast began to evaporate in his grasp. His existence was unraveling into its basic components in the hands of the Shadow of Despair.

"Let the shadow of despair swallow you up and bring you to peace."

The surrounding enemies weren't just watching him. They were attacking him with everything they had. But most energy attacks didn't reach him before they were unraveled.

They are not the accumulated and concentrated attacks that they used earlier so they can't withstand the power of order spreading out from him.

Only physical attacks can touch him at this point. But any attacker or attack that gets close to him might bear more damage than they can manage to inflict on his armored figure.

The supreme beast in his hand didn't dissolve completely. He cried out in pain for a while but he was ultimately saved by the Mechanical Emperor. Legion-5 could have prevented the teleportation that whisked away his prey from his hand but he didn't.

"How lucky," Legion-7 said. "I wanted to see what it felt like to have your existence disintegrate."

Legion-5 agreed. "Supreme beasts are truly lucky. I am one of them so I too am.."

He was already shooting towards another target but he was interrupted by an attacker. Someone glowing in bright white light collided with him in the air. He grasped the punch meant for his face so he was not harmed. But then something exploded in his face.

The explosion washed over him and took a layer out of his armor. It was an attack far more powerful than the combined attack that struck him earlier.

The explosion was so powerful that his scales broke and layers of his white armor turned to ashes. However, it regenerated instantly with the use of his time rewind divine ability. He didn't use Origin energy to regenerate because he didn't want to underestimate this person.

He was ultimately unscathed but the shockwave of lightning and thunder that the explosion caused harmed the enemies around him though. It was like a rolling cloud of death. Everyone it touched was saved immediately by the Mechanical Emperor. They couldn't resist the attack at all.

Only Legion-5 and the person who just attacked him remained in the vicinity of the explosion. The explosion had cleared out their surroundings of enemies and created a ring of space around the two of them.

The smoke of the explosion cleared to reveal his pristine armor and the expressionless face on his armored head.

"Interesting." Legion-5 observed. "You must be the one that blocked my attack earlier."

She didn't say anything. The space between them suddenly became charged with power and energy. Then a torrent of plasma lightning exploded out of her into him. He was struck at point blank and sent flying.

It was the same attack as the previous one. It was very powerful and very concentrated. He struck the ground in a sorry state but the attack didn't let him go. It fell on him even as he hit the ground.

The attack struck him and the ground in equal proportion. It sought to eradicate him and the ground. The ground was shaved to form a crater filled with lava. Even the lave evaporated until only a bowl-shaped deep depression in the earth was left.

This time the attack damaged the supreme beast army more than before. Another death zone was created but it was in the midst of the supreme beasts so a lot of their manpower died. The warrior that struck him looked at everything in the air while struggling not to pant.

"Did I get him?" she asked hopefully.

She got her answer soon enough. There was a chuckle from the depth of the crater. The bottom of the crater cannot be seen due to the cloud of ash-saturated superheated air obscuring sight and the radioactive energy around it that is destroying divine sense. But his divine sense was unharmed.

His divine sense spread outwards so his chuckle appeared in everyone's mind and helped them to determine the situation at the bottom of the crater.

The female warrior said to him, "Do you remember me now weirdo?"

There has only been one Supreme beast to call him a weirdo so he surely remembered her.

She continued proudly, "You said that I should prepare myself for a beating the next time I meet you. I did more than that. How do you like my preparation now?"

Legion-5 chuckled. "Very interesting. My own attack was used against me. Isn't that the power reflection divine ability? How adorable."

The attack she struck him with twice was his super-

concentrated dragon breath. She had absorbed it earlier when he attacked them with it. Then he punched her away. She returned and used his own attack against him now.

She thought it was a good move so she didn't like Legion-5 call it adorable. So she frowned in displeasure.

"You don't think it is adorable? That's unfortunate. I only consider it adorable because its weaknesses are glaring."
