Chapter 1876 I Leave it to You.
Before he could finish his curse, Felix noticed the genuine shock and perplexity in Ares' eyes, making him realize that he had nothing to do with this.
"Our reign is near its end?"
Suddenly, Amun-Ra familiar merciless voice resounded in the area from the depth of Ares' soul.
Out of nowhere, his majestic divine eagle-shaped face manifested in front of Felix, his eyes were as cold as a frozen lake.
Ares and Felix were left startled for a brief moment before their expressions turned murderous.
"Amun-Ra."
"What have you done to me?!" Ares uttered with a vicious look.
He could feel that both his soul and core were in the process of self-implosion. A process he hadn't initiated at all.
The worst part? He tried to cancel it but to no avail!
"You are a fool if you thought we would let you face the Paragon with your core at risk of being stolen," Amun-Ra sneered coldly. "We provided you with everything needed to defeat him, and yet you made the idiotic decision not to use them. Useless trash like you belongs in the dumpster."
"Now perish!"
The core and Ares' soul began to glow with a dangerous intensity, threatening to unleash a cataclysmic explosion!
Felix's pupils thinned out as he sensed the impending disaster, knowing that he couldn't let Ares' core be destroyed like this.
All of his endeavors would be thrown down the drain...To make matters worse, Ares' core would be reborn by the universe's heart just like Demeter's core.
In other words, the three rulers would own five cores, making it more difficult to obtain them.
'I can't let this happen.'
Felix narrowed his gaze coldly as he summoned his celestial black flames. Then, he channeled them into the core, enveloping it in a cocoon of intense flames!
The flames were absorbing none other than Amun-Ra's divine presence on the core!
Felix knew that it would be nearly impossible to stop a unigin's core from self-explosion when it was being affected by celestial powers.
After all, he couldn't even abuse his laws and a make wish when the core was being protected by Amun-Ra's divinity.
"Paragon..." Ares slitted his eyes, "I will assist you."
He already knew that his life was pretty much done for as he couldn't stop his soul implosion and even if he succeeded, his core's destruction would spill the end of him.
Hence, he was left with only one choice and that was to direct his will and energy to stabilize the core from within!
Meanwhile, Amun-Ra merely smirked with malicious glee. "You think you can control it? How foolish."
He intensified his endeavors to accelerate the core's implosion, causing the sphere's glow to grow more violent!
Felix gritted his teeth, feeling the strain as he pushed more of his celestial black flames into the core.
He held absolutely nothing back, causing the two forces to mix around each other, and creating a mesmerizing scene. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
As the intensity of their power grew, each tried to outmatch the other, Ares realized that his core was going to implode against their endeavors.
He switched his gaze to Felix and gave him a slight head nod, a faint smile painted across his determined visage.
'I leave it to you.'
Without saying anything, Ares closed his eyes and accelerated the explosion of his soul instead of fighting it!
'Ares...'
Felix was stunned at first, but swiftly, he figured out what Ares tried to achieve by actively extinguishing his soul.
He hardened his expression and watched with unblinking gaze as Ares' soul exploded like a star, a cataclysmic supernova with the intensity of a billion suns!
Felix extended his palm and used the Devouring Abyss of his gluttony embodiment, wanting to feast on all of the released energy.
'He is seeking to transform this energy into celestial black flames.' Eris remarked, causing the tenants to cover their widened mouths in shock.
They couldn't see a single thing amidst the heart of the explosion, but they were able to spot a massive whirlpool of energy getting sucked into Felix's massive Devouring Abyss.
After the energy was consumed, it straight away went through the process of deconstruction and came from the other palm as a new dose of celestial black flames!
This helped Felix increase the intensity and quantity of celestial black flames in his struggle, unlike Amun-Ra!
Amun-Ra had it even worse as he didn't expect Ares to accelerate his soul explosion, causing him to get erased with him!
After all, he had merged part of his soul with Ares' soul, not his core.
"Damn it! They have caught on quicker than expected." Amun-Ra cursed hatefully while watching the spectacle of Felix fighting against his remaining divinity.
He was no longer in contact with the divinity, which meant he couldn't increase its strength. If it was up to him, he wouldn't have bothered to explode Ares' soul, knowing that he would be removed from it.
But, he knew that as much as his little merged wisp had control over Ares' decision, it couldn't stop him if he wanted to blow his soul or core!
He could decide for Ares, but not resist the decision.
"Argh!!" Meanwhile, Felix grunted in difficulty while his entire body was illuminated by the stone of reality's inscriptions giving it their all to deconstruct the insane amount of energy.
"You can do it, Felix!"
"Keep pushing, you've got this!"
The tenants kept cheering on Felix with looks of concern, knowing that it would suck terribly to lose Ares' core in such a fashion.
Fortunately, Ares' sacrificial decision came at the perfect time.
Amun-Ra's divinity tried its absolute best to resist the black flames' intense devouring power but to no avail.
Without a host to keep it fed, it ended up getting fully consumed, leaving Ares' core surrounded by a massive cocoon of celestial black flames.
Felix immediately reached out with his hand and caught it. Then, he wished in his mind for the universe to halt the self-explosion!
Without a symbol manifesting in the open, the wish was granted almost instantaneously after a faint glow of green light bathed the core.
The radiant intense light started to slowly fade away bit by bit until the core returned to its normal appearence.
Felix tightened his grip on it and stopped the deconstruction process, knowing that he could always absorb this energy later on.
There was nowhere for it to go in the Great Nothingness.
Instead, he lifted his head and gazed above into the pitch-darkness. His gaze were dark and devoid of warmth pierced through the vast expanse of the Great Nothingness to fixate on the distant forms of the three rulers.
For others, there was nothing at the other end. But, for Felix? He seemed to be truly staring at them.
This was all he did, staring at them as the black flames dancing around him kept flickering ominously, reflecting the icy ferocity in his eyes.
Then, with a tone that echoed like the final toll of a death knell, he spoke a promise that sent shivers through the void, "Enjoy your fleeting reign while you can. I am coming for you next, and there will be no one to save you."
"No one."
