Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse



Across the Havens of Extremity

Near the Styx Regality Plane.

A thin golden Boundary stretched out for light years as it released waves of golden destiny, reverberations booming within as a great battle unfolded.

Towards a corner of this domain, one young man floated with an aura of sharpness and power as he seemed like a blade ready to strike at any moment.

He watched.

With every ounce of his Aeonic Soul, he watched every single move that the trapped enemy made as his goal was to ensure that escape wasn't even a possibility for him!

After all, the enemy had something as unpredictable as the Eyes of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform!

BOOM!

A golden light exploded out as the surroundings were filled with golden Treasure Caches releasing beams of light that snaked around the whole domain- giving the two Noblesse Reverends that had joined the fray trouble along with the main target of today's venture- Oppenheimer!

On top of the Planar Domain of Loot, seas of crimson blood occupied and encircled all other areas as the multicolored light of Quintessence formed into unique constructs that also closed off all sides.

The only being at the center of this all was Oppenheimer as his body moved with contained calmness and a somber expression!

He currently faced the attacks of all Dimensional Rulers here as a valiant Eowyn was at the forefront, her golden hair radiating might as she merged with the golden light of Loot while swinging a massive blade that held a half-crescent moon at its hilt- the grandeur of Ruination also being put to use.

On top of Eowyn and Arthus, Lilith, Guinevere, and other Dimensional Rulers who were all utilizing the Boundaries that stemmed from a single man, the roaring figures of Kazuhiko and the Emperor Penguin were among others who weaved in and out to release attacks on all sides that made sure Oppenheimer couldn't make an escape in any direction.

Even though he held the eyes of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform, he had not been able to leave this whole time!

Every point of space was covered with Boundary essence as if there were any gaps...the dreadful light of an Undead Legion buzzing with Boundary Essence filled it as Barbatos sat atop an Aeonic Abyssal Bone Dragon also watching everything closely.

It had been minutes since the battle began, and Oppenheimer still couldn't break out as the only reason he had survived so far was the multicolored glow released from his eyes.

It rebuffed and reduced the might of the attacks of the inhabitants of the Infinite Plane that had reached the 8th Boundary Layer easily as it was the only reason this being was still alive!

But after these few minutes, the cost of keeping this up was wearing him down as his soul could already feel the strain.

His golden destiny that always showed him innumerable routes only had a few lines he could follow- with most of them requiring him to sacrifice everything just for the possibility of escape!

So for the first time since the encirclement began...

"Why would you all so vehemently do this?"

WAA!

His booming voice filled with majesty echoed out as he weaved across the cylindrical beams of light coming from treasure chests, the light of Destiny knocking back the flippers of an arrogant Penguin at the same time while the tentacles of the Kraken barely grazed his body!

There were too many enemies around him as his voice continued to ring out.

"I alone worked to save you all when a Noblesse located our Plane of Existence. My methods may have been brutal, but it was the only way as the other option was complete annihilation!"

...!

He always showed the serenity and regality of an Emperor.

After all, he had risen and reigned over an entire Age- even coming to end an Era!

And even now, he had only taken a few of his Boundaries to the peak of the Seventh Boundary Layer due to the Eyes of Clarity, and yet he stood against multiple beings who had achieved the 7th Boundary Layer in multiple Boundaries.

He was brave and indomitable as anyone at the same stage wouldn't be able to match him!

Yet now, he spoke with a sense of urgency as the innumerable routes he always had were slowly dwindling amidst this trap.

"Hah! You worked to save us? You decimated the forces of the Dream Dimension among multiple others just to cement your reign, you ripped apart my Aspects of Existence in front of my own father!"

BOOM!

Eowyn bellowed out with burning anger as from her body, blue flames rose as a tinge of Manadynamics bloomed!

Oppenheimer released tendrils of Destiny to block this off as he replied.

"This was in a time of war where each of us was fighting for the title of True Emperor. I had to dominate a certain few to gain the might to save all the 9 Minor Planes and the Desolate Mausoleum. The reason you all stand here today and why Desiderius did not deserve everything was because of me. Me!"

...!

Anger seemed to be rising from the visage of the True Emperor of Destiny.

How long had he worked for this? How far had he come?

He came from nothing to overcome Destined and Chosen Emperors as today...it would be the same!

The eyes transplanted on his sockets gazed and calculated everything as an instant later, they turned towards the direction of the devilishly handsome youth who seemed to be silently weaving and controlling the direction of this whole battle.

Unseen tendrils of Destiny and Providence surged from him as Oppenheimer could see one of the few remaining pathways...was this being.

And so...

SHIING!

Space twisted and contorted from the usage of the eyes of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform as Oppenheimer instantly appeared before Henry, spears of Destiny booming out while his voice emanated out.

"The only reason you were even born was due to me ending an Era and giving your father the chance to stand atop a new one. All of you owe your lives to me!"

BOOM!
