Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

The scene on the first Treasure Island was fantastical to say the least as a portion of it was covered in a Mirror Reality, those locked within unable to extricate themselves out as these beings couldn't even recover any of their resources!

"Gazer…"

The Primordial Wolf Guard called out ruggedly as his body stopped healing, looking towards the Gazer for direction as the two of them could see the beat-up figure of the Scorcher of Realities hand her Primordial Relic over to an existence that seemed to release waves of power at the Fourth Firmament of Ascendancy.

Granted, they shouldn't feel a sense of apprehension or fear from this being, but this single action of Natalya caused the Primordial Wolf Guard and the Gazer to feel a sense of unknown Trepidation!

BZZZT!

Tendrils of essence wrapped around the enormous purple blue eye that was the Gazer, his Primordial Relic rising before him and spinning with power as many things crossed his mind.

The aurora of wings behind his figure glistened in the light as his word echoed out.

"We are contained in a dimension of space that stops the regeneration of any resources, and it just so happens that we are down on the last drops of our mana and Essence."

"..."

His words were calm, but one could sense immense wrath and unwillingness within them as he continued!

"Such a dimension capable of holding us must require droves of resources and Essence of Reality…so we simply must survive the next few attacks before this dimension will fade. If your mana is drained, utilize your physical body! Do what you must as the only goal is to survive!"

WAA!

Beings of their stature were reduced to such a state that they actually had to struggle to make sure they survived! When had this ever been a reality for Primordials? In the past hundreds of millions of years, nobody had even dared to raise their hands to attack the Gazer or the Primordial Wolf Guard.

But now, even a Fourth Firmament existence raised a Primordial Relic towards them as when they recalled the three arrows that had shot from nowhere to start off this battle and the one that had even managed to kill snow- they knew they couldn't underestimate this being!

Looking at the incandescent crimson blue Primordial Relic gathering a terrifying amount of Essence, the Gazer's single expansive eye focused on the holder of the bow as his voice echoed out loudly.

"I am a Primordial who is a sworn brother with the Royal Wolf Emperor of the Cardinal Royal Wolf Bloodline…an existence that has lived an immeasurable number of years and formed connections across the vast races under Primordials. Can you really aim with the goal of killing someone like me?"

WAA!

Delay. This was the Gazer's next tactic as he brought up his status and connections! Any strands he could pull to cause tike to pass and wait for this domain to fade!

Yet the being pulling back the bow paid no heed as his left hand had even been wrapped by terrifying flames that tore his skin apart, but the fingers of his right hand continued to pull the bowstring back as endless rivers of mana surged into the forming arrow that carried an illusory form of a Reality as Essence of Reality also flowed into it!

"I have a unique Nomological Edict that makes even 8th and 9th Firmament existences come to me for aid. With it, I can help you find whatever your heart desires…can you truly allow yourself to jeopardize the life of someone like me? To cause the loss of such an Edict from these Infinite Realities?"

…!

A unique Edict that caused his tenth Ascendancy Halo to be painted gold!

It would truly be a loss if such a concept was forever lost in the rivers of time.

This was what the Gazer used to plead his case as he and the Primordial Wolf Guard actually felt a suffocating aura of immense and unavoidable danger form as a mere Fourth Firmament existence pulled back a bowstring!

They didn't gaze at the Destiny Goblin, nor at the wounded figure of Natalya Rostova. But their eyes were on the weakest being on this Forsaken Treasure Reality as these prestigious Primordials actually pled their importance and lives to him.

And this being…

OOOM!

This being simply got lost in the feeling of the attack he was initiating as he didn't even reply to the gazer!

There were too many things for him to be careful and account for at this moment as for the first time, he had to use a large amount of the Essence of Reality simultaneously.

With all of his passive Generation of this unique resource and what he had already used up when forging the initial portion of his Primordial Epitaph- he currently only had 246 Units of the Essence of Reality.

From the Heartsplitter Primordial Relic, he had called upon the terrifying ability of <Reality Shatterer> that formed an arrow capable of vaporizing an entire Emerging Reality, and such an attack actually required one to pay the price of 150 Units to achieve such a reality-altering effect!

Then, there was Noah's own <Resplendent Treasure Cache>.

The ability capable of being utilized during a nexus event as the cast of it alone actually required 100 Units of the Essence of Reality- being the highest resource requiring ability in Noah's arsenal due to its terrifying effects! On top of all this, Noah had to spare 10 Units every minute to have RUINATION keep active the Mirror Reality and account for any attacks the Gazer and Primordial Wolf Guard might throw out.

He was spending the Essence of Reality freely as if he had it, Noah seeing it deplete at such a fast rate that it made him feel stifled! It allowed him to feel what all existences felt who didn't have infinite mana, with them having to utilize everything they had sparingly and with purpose as they couldn't just freely spam abilities!

Now, Noah was forced to recognize this feeling because of the limited Essence of Reality!
