Primordial Soul's Rebirth

"What the hell?!"

Makrum almost had his eyes pop out of the circuits as he looked at the scene behind Alex.

'Those were 800+ freaking Aquathrens!!'

Makrum couldn't believe that in the short seconds that he looked away from Alex, the 800+ Aquthrens were killed by Alex in just that interval.

'How is that even possible?!'

Makrum was confident that he could kill them all as well if given time that is, but he wasn't sure if he could fight them all at the same time.

Looking at what Alex did….

Makrum could only grit his teeth as he blamed his already dead subordinates for provoking a monster like Alex.

However, Makrum was just trying to shift the blame on others, after all, he didn't stop them, and he even agreed to all that.

He looked back at the dead Aquathrens….

Some of them were shredded as if they were cut into pieces, some of them had their bodies twisted in a strange way, some of them had their head crushed, some of them looked burned, and some of them had their heads blown away, but one thing was common, none of them were even moving.

Meaning: they were all dead.

Alex smiled as he looked at Makrum's shocked expression before he looked at his bloody hands.

He jerked the blood of his hand, and then he looked behind from the corner of his eyes.

'This is what happens when I use my full power huh…'

For the first time, Alex used all of his powers at the same time, well, other than his incubus transformation and the zone.

'Temporal pause is pretty useful…

I guess I have to thank the good man Stephan more for this when I return back to Orange Country.'

The first thing Alex did was pause the time in his surroundings.

As he did that, the Aquathrens in the surroundings stopped moving, and this made it easier for him to kill them.

He increased the power of his gloves to the max before he coated his fist with different kinds of abilities.

He didn't back down from his words and he didn't use any mage attacks, all of his attacks were purely physical, but because of the magical energy coated on his fists, the damage was no less than a mage's attack.

If that was not enough, the power of his gloves was pushed to the max, which is Epic-rank.

A single punch of his would cause the sound barrier to break along with taking out more than 10 Aquathrens that couldn't even move from their places.

'But it did take a toll on my mana…'

At the speed at which Alex used his mana, the instantaneous regeneration couldn't do anything.

Alex was using two or three abilities at the same time, and all of them at maximum power, which would take away almost 80% of his mana.

The mana did recover the next instant, but his doing the same thing again and again in just a matter of seconds strained him mentally.

[You have a very powerful ability, but there is a limit to what your body can take.]

Sophia commented as she knew exactly what Alex was going through.

He would use the pyre of adjudication, space element, and destruction all at the same time.

The pyre of adjudication would burn the enemies, the space element would tear them apart, and the destruction energy would outright disintegrate them.

Alex used all other abilities as well, he didn't even leave out the poison mist ability he had.

But overall…

'It was fun…'

The speedy movements of his body, the feeling of him pushing his body to the limit of SS-rank as he was moving faster and faster every instant, all of this was fun for him.

That was also the reason why even now he had an excited smile on his face.

But that excited smile looked predatory to Makrum.

'I did make him fall for a trap, of course, he would be angry….'

Makrum thought as he looked back at Alex.

'Let's do it…'

Makrum's eyes then became determined as he focused everything on the mana flow inside his body.

Makrum had been at a power level where he could do many things with mana, things that the ones at lower ranks couldn't even think of.

*Inhale*

He took a deep breath to calm his nerves.

He was going to do something that would kill himself, after all, and the fact that he had to do it quickly was not helping here.

He could see that Alex was already in front of him, but from the looks of it, Alex seemed to have something to say, so he decided to get it done by the time it was over.

It was a short time, but he could do it.

He had to do it.

He had already made up his mind, and he was not backing down anymore.

Makrum knew that he was going to die, but he would not give Alex the satisfaction of killing him.

"You were the first one to ever land a hit on me, and you were the first to make me fall for a trap.

I commend you for that, and I will give you a quick death in return-"

Alex cracked his knuckle as he looked at Makrum with a smile.

But then he sensed something odd from Makrum.

[Use your eyes, now!]

Sophia couldn't tell him what was happening, but she could guide him or show him the way.

'All right.'

Alex nodded inwardly before his eyes turned black and his pupils turned golden.

'What the….'

He could see it clearly now.

He finally understood why the mana around Makrum felt strange.

'Is he trying to….?' He asked Sophia even though he knew what Makrum was doing.

He asked just for confirmation and he got it the next second.

[Yes, he's trying to explode himself.]

'I see…'

Alex nodded his head, but he didn't stop Makrum.

He observed the process with utmost focus.

The most that blast could do was take out Alex's limbs, but that would be healed instantly by Alex's regeneration.

However, there was a big IF about the explosion even happening.

Alex was focusing on every detail of the mana movement, he was ready to kill Makrum any second to stop the process.

Alex knew that the amount of control he had over mana after he had reached the Epic rank was enough for him to do the same thing, but he never tried.

[I won't allow it, it's very risky.]

This was what Sophia had told him.

Alex didn't know what she meant by 'allowing' but he listened to her nonetheless.

After all, he didn't want to take chances of himself being blasted.

So, he continued to observe the process as it might come in handy later on…
