Chapter 406 398: STRONGEST (2)

Chapter 406  398: STRONGEST (2)

Not a single person could move.

As they saw the Outer God slowly crawl past the rupture in space and slither closer to the world.

The very pressure of the being that was beyond anyone's understanding was far too much for them to bear.

Charlotte was about to start her spell again but stopped when she noticed Eugene Hall glaring at her.

Her eyes trembled.

This was impossible.

Just moments ago, this child was still weak. He was stronger than most, but not strong enough.

Then how?

How did it feel like she couldn't even scratch his toes if she tried her entire life anymore?

Just the thought alone was enough to send a chill down her spine. That he could so relaxedly gaze at her even when the Outer God was approaching just added on to the chill by making her hair stand on end.

A crack resounded in the air, breaking everyone out of their silence.

Eugene, slowly stretching his hand and wrist above his head, yawned as he walked right below the Outer God.

Like sheep running from a wolf, everyone immediately backed away to let him pass.

"I started this thing, so I should end it. Catene, turn into a spear."

At his words, the chains in his hands started whirring.

As if shocked, he stared down at the chains.

"What? You can't!? Both you and your master are utterly useless, aren't you?"

—Whirr.

"I am him? Fuck you. Shut up."

"Ỷ̑Ǒ̸̶̡̧͙̼͓̱̜̱͕͖̥̘̟̌͂̔̎ͩͮͨ̐͢͜͞Ų̧̛͔̤̘̃̓̀̃ͬ̊̎̐̒ͬ Y̠͓͙̗̲̱̱̆ͣͭ̈́̓͊͌̒͌̈́͢͠OU̥̯̠̓ͩͩ͟ Y̵̶̬̩̞̤̦̣͖̞͖̓ͣ̇ͮ̓ͭͫ̋͠O͈ͤ_̣̱̮̞͔̞ͥ̑͛̍͗̊͐ͧͮ̆̕U̯͎ͥͯ Y͇̫_̩̜ͣ̇͢O͈͚Ų̩̎͝͠_̧̧̡͍̘͎̮̘͚̖̲̭̝͖͖͓̦̭́̐ͥ͐ͯ͑̐͋̓ͪ͛͋͞!!!"

Eugene turned his gaze upward as the Outer God started screaming.

Horror struck the faces of everyone watching as the same beam of light coalesced around the mouth of the complete Invasion Navy.

If just a few dozen of its clones could destroy an Island, then the mixture of hundreds of thousands…

"I-It's over…"

Charlotte fell on her back, her eyes quaking.

The rupture in space seemed to be increasing from the energy that gathered around its mouth.

Gasps and whimpers escaped the ones around.

This was it.

There was no countering that.

This place, no, this entire world wouldn't be lucky enough to escape that.

But still.

Still…

"Tweeet~"

Eugene Hall only whistled.

"Not bad. He's stronger than I remember." Eugene looked down at the chains again and tightened them around his hand.

He slowly exhaled and a sword of malicious black formed in his hand.

A simple, thin, sword. If not for its lustrous colors then it would have been no different from any other sword.

Slowly, Eugene Hall lowered his stance.

"D̮̼̀̅_̸̡̗͔̙̮̮͇͇̅̐̇̓ͪͫ̅̓ͯ͟͟͟͡I̱̝̫̯̲͈̰̭̬̺̙͓̰ͦͯͪ̾̇̔̐̊̽̄̑̽̿ͪ͢E̹̐!̵̢̠͎̺̑̏̍̉̋͜!̸̢̧͇̥͚͔̯̘̥͎̬͇ͣ̾͒̓̃̈́̅̇̎̇ͨ̍ͪ͟͜͡ͅ!̸̴̡̠̪̫̪̯̺̤̬͉̯̗̭̺̟̣͉͖̯̭͔̣̪͂̃̏̽̇͊͐́ͦ̍̾ͩ̊ͩ͘͝͡͡͡!̢̡͈̩̭̟̙̙̼̙̜̫̪̘̣̪̹̳̾͊ͧ̆͆̐͒̎ͣͤ̇̀͋͆͘͢͞͝!̴̨͕̣̯̰̻̖̲͎͚͓̦̭͉ͤ̄̆͐ͦ͌͗̒ͣ̆̊̿ͦͭ͂ͯ̃͛̕̚͜͟͜͝ͅͅ"

The beam of light flickered.

The world started screaming in fear as it descended down.

Against the roars of the being, only a light laughter stood.

"For the weakest Outer God…"

Eugene jumped off the ground. Faster than the beam itself could make its way down, he was in front of it.

"You sure bark loud."

Eugene swung his blade.

The world blacked out. Charlotte's ears buzzed as her sight was replaced by complete darkness.

Heavy breaths left her as she fell on her back.

And then, everything returned.

The beam that should have ended the entire world was chopped in half and kicked out of existence.

Eugene floated mid-air and smirked at the Outer God.

Incomprehensible words followed his actions.

"y̷̻̆o̴͖͆ū̸̻ ̸̧̏w̶̨̎á̸̟n̶̩̿n̷̫͗a̸͔̽ ̵͚̓g̴̛̮ẽ̶ͅt̶͕̊ ̵͓̂s̸̬̿e̴̲͆r̶̹͛ì̴͈ó̷̹ṳ̵͒s̸̜͌?̵̜͒"

The Outer God could only widen its eyes even further.

A feral scream left it and hundreds, no, thousands of beams of light spread around the skies and glared down at Eugene.

With the swing of the pure black sword, just as many spears of black formed in the skies behind Eugene.

A battle straight out of a myth, even that was selling it short.

The rays of light clashed against the spears before being eaten up by the attack. Explosions littered the skies like stars on a clear night.

Eugene pressed down on another of his shields and charged upward yet again.

The Outer God's body tentacles stretched out and came rushing at him. With every step, he twisted in the air and chopped off the approaching appendages.

But that wasn't the end. The energy in his swings eroded the appendages and made them turn on each other.

Screams after screams emerged from the Outer God, but that barely slowed him down.

Eugene avoided all the incoming attacks and stopped right in front of the Outer God.

He pulled his foot up.

And stomped it on the Outer God's face.

The Outer God's body arched inward as the impact shook the skies.

In the blink of an eye, it shot through the skies and dashed right back into the gap in the space.

The Outer God barely held on to the crack by lodging its tentacles in the way, but Eugene was having none of it.

"I started it, so I'll end this."

He took in a deep breath and charged in at the Outer God again. His punch landed square on its face and sent it rolling inside the gap in space.

Without turning back, Eugene Hall swung his sword backward.

A beam of black emerged and covered the crack in space.

As if it were all a dream.

The feeble, fickle rupture in space disappeared.

No one moved, no one could.

Even if it all seemed like a nightmare, the destruction around them and what had happened just moments ago, was all real.

There was no denying it.

It wasn't until hours passed and more gates opened in space did the people on the floating island moved. Thankfully, it was the reinforcements they had ordered.

The event was enough to turn the minds of every single Earthling and the coalition between the worlds succeeded.

Under a now one-armed Albert and Luka's guidance, the coalition started making its way toward their world as restorations started once more.

Eugene Hall.

Never came back.

"Now then, Invasion Navy. I thought I'll kill you right here. But won't you serve as good training?"

"GAHHHHHH!!"

"Don't shout. I'll let you die by the hands of the strongest."

In a completely different place, the weakest of the Outer Gods was now held captive.
