THE VILLAIN'S POV - Chapter 718: The Last Thousand Steps (3)
Chapter 718: The Last Thousand Steps (3)
Frey raised his sword again toward Zibar and Abraham, his eyes sharp and merciless—so sharp they sent shivers down Zibar’s spine.
“Ten Thousand Steps of Shadow…”
“You’ve got to be kidding me…” Zibar cursed, launching himself at Frey with all his strength.
Zibar’s blade was mere millimeters from Frey’s face ..
but Frey teleported away at the last instant before unleashing his attack.
“Nameless Judgement.”
—BOOOOOOOM!!!!—
Before Zibar’s eyes, Frey’s attack tore the very fabric of space once more, roaring straight toward him.
Zibar gritted his teeth and poured out the entirety of his power, saturating Katarina’s blade with a vast surge of aura.
“Void Eater!”
From Katarina’s sword, Zibar released a massive dark crescent .. equal in scale to Frey’s attack.
And within seconds, the two colossal blows collided in an unprecedented clash, devouring each other violently.
Zibar’s dark aura versus Frey’s Black Hole aura.
After a brutal struggle, Frey’s attack began to overpower Zibar’s ..
a portion of the strike tore through, carving a monstrous dent into the Katarina armor. The armor attempted to distribute the damage evenly, but it was useless against the overwhelming quantity of aura in Frey’s strike.
The clash continued for a long, thunderous moment…
until everything finally dispersed.
Zibar had managed to block the attack .. barely but his face turned to stone the moment he sensed the aura moving again.
Horror spread across his features as the aura drifted back toward Frey, who raised his sword yet again, his killing intent erupting like a storm.
“Ten Thousand Steps of Shadow…”
Just hearing those words ..
Zibar’s body exploded with power, and Abraham erupted into a blinding burst of stellar light, each unleashing their full strength at once.
Both shot toward Frey at the speed of light, ripping the air apart in a desperate attempt to reach him .. but they couldn’t.
They couldn’t reach him in time, not with Frey bending space itself.
Before their eyes…
Frey tore the world open once more.
“Nameless Judgement!!!”
Frey roared with every fiber of his being, unleashing his strongest strike again .. swallowing them both in the abyss of the Black Hole.
Zibar and Abraham were devoured by the attack, resisting with every ounce of their formidable power, refusing to fall.
Soon, the aura cleared .. revealing a colossal crater carved into the earth…
a hollow wound in the land where everything inside had been erased.
Zibar and Abraham still stood .. but barely.
A crack split across Katarina’s armor.
Abraham’s aura-forged body bore a deep wound glowing with starlight.
They were injured… yet still standing.
But Zibar found no relief.
Because the aura stirred again ..
—and Frey lifted his blade.
“Ten Thousand Steps of Shadow…”
With every word Frey spoke, the earth trembled, quaking as if struck by a cataclysm.
At the same time… he shook the hearts of his enemies just as violently.
“Frey Starlight…!!! How far are you planning to go?!”
Zibar lunged again.
Abraham followed.
But the only thing they met head-on was—
another blazing Nameless Judgement,
devouring them both in a horrifying torrent of darkness.
“Until death.”
Frey answered coldly, reclaiming the aura back into himself.
Before that terrifying sight—the masked young man raising his sword again and again, unleashing destruction without end—
Zibar found himself… afraid.
When he looked at all the power Frey had unleashed…
his own words echoed mockingly inside his skull.
Had he truly… called this monster “weak”?
Weak? Him?
The thought struck Zibar like lightning ..
before the darkness swallowed him once more.
Both Zibar and Abraham resisted to the very end, unleashing 100% of their power, holding nothing back for any future battle. They poured every drop of strength into this fight.
Why?
Because the man standing before them had climbed far above what they had anticipated…
to a level where, for the first time since the battle began…
they felt danger.
Frey Starlight unleashed Nameless Judgement again and again ..
an endless barrage that shook the entire planet called Earth.
Waves of Black Hole energy and violent aura tremors rippled across the world until every living being on Earth could feel it.
Every creature sensed it ..
the tragic, world-shattering struggle of Frey Starlight.
Far away, within the Shadow Sect…
Many individuals rose to their feet, staring at the horizon in disbelief ..
instantly recognizing whose aura that belonged to.
Among them, Snow Lionheart understood more than anyone.
“Frey…”
Realizing what was happening, Snow shot into the sky without hesitation ..
a beam of light tearing through the heavens as he raced toward that dreadful aura, a terrifying look on his face.
And across the world, all of Frey’s companions felt it as well ..
knowing he was now fighting a life-or-death battle somewhere far beyond their reach .
In the meantime…
Frey continued unleashing Nameless Judgement one after another without pause.
Every strike sent Abraham and Zibar flying, their bodies carved open by wounds that grew more and more gruesome. Despite all their power, neither of them could reach Frey … who was firing off a catastrophic technique over and over as if it were nothing.
This wasn’t Nameless’s doing.
This was Frey—and Frey alone.
With each swing of the blade, Nameless .. watching from afar .. narrowed his eyes.
“How strange… He called himself weak, yet he’s suddenly executing my technique with near-perfect mastery.”
Frey was anything but ordinary.
At first, he could only restore 30% of his power using the ability Nameless taught him.
But during the battle, everything changed.
“Right now… he’s recovering more than 90% of the power from each attack he launches.”
As if he had learned ..no, mastered .. this technique centuries ago.
For the first time, Nameless was genuinely impressed by the young man called Frey Starlight.
With that recovery, Frey could unleash Nameless Judgement endlessly, his body barely holding together under the recoil.
It must have been excruciating .. yet Frey endured it without blinking.
“Frey Starlight… you are not weak.”
Nameless whispered, then fell silent, witnessing Frey’s final rampage.
Frey’s frenzy lasted longer still.
Only a few minutes .. but to those witnessing it, they felt like an eternity.
The devastation left behind by Frey’s assault erased an enormous region from the face of the earth. What remained was a colossal meteor crater carved into the world.
