The mont Zanko crashed into the ground, the scarlet flas devoured the surrounding energy before converging onto his body. A massive explosion followed, crushing the Neo-Angel even deeper into the earth. The power of the Imperium Dream had risen significantly with the evolution of Cain's soul force and True Na, allowing its destructive abilities and raw strength to be expressed in a far deadlier way than before.
Cain tightened his grip around Sky Devourer, ready to continue the onslaught.
Suddenly, his eyes sharpened.
He turned sharply to the side just as a red solar eruption blasted toward him, taking the form of a dense column of plasma so intense it appeared capable of lting the sky itself. The attack ca from Hanzo, the Neo-Angel unleashing everything he had in a single strike. For a brief mont, Cain considered using Redirection. However, as the flas approached, he sensed sothing deeply unsettling. The plasma carried a form of consciousness, as if it were alive and hostile. This was most likely Hanzo's unique power.
If Cain allowed those flas into his body, they would tear him apart from the inside long before he could transmute them in his stomach.
Taking a single steady breath, scarlet flas gathered along the edge of Sky Devourer.
Cain responded with pure strength.
With one decisive slash, he split the pillar of red plasma cleanly in half.
Hanzo clenched his teeth as he saw his strongest attack severed so
easily. Refusing to give up, he continued pouring energy into the flas, attempting to overwhelm Cain through sheer output. Unfortunately for the Neo-Angel, Cain not only continued sundering the pillar, but began walking forward. Step by step, he closed the distance between them, his presence oppressive and relentless. When they were less than ten feet apart, Cain's Chaos Wings flared. Massive amounts of power were drawn from the surroundings into his body, granting him a short but explosive burst of strength and speed. In an instant, he flashed forward and appeared directly before Hanzo.
Hanzo attempted to retreat-but he was too slow.
With a single slash that carried every ounce of Cain's strength, Sky Devourer severed the Neo-Angel's left forearm. It spun through the air, trailing blood and flas.
Overwhelming pain assaulted Hanzo, yet his focus did not break. His eyes glowed with cold resolve and burning emotion as his dismbered arm suddenly exploded into dozens of serpents forged from red flas. The creatures lunged toward Cain from all directions, hissing with lethal intent.
The Scarlet King could not help but feel a flicker of surprise at the Neo-Angel's power and determination. No matter how much Cain wanted to continue his direct assault, he was forced to deal with the incoming threat.
Sky Devourer collided with the fla serpents again and again, scarlet destruction consuming the red fire that forged them. Cain destroyed the creatures at an astonishing speed-but not fast enough.
Zanko returned to the fray.
The Neo-Angel's chest was shattered, bones clearly visible beneath scorched flesh. Even so, his Salvation Incarnation wings flared with power. Zanko seized the sky itself, twisting and morphing it around his arm to amplify his strength before unleashing a devastating strike
21:47
toward Cain.
2/5
The Scarlet King barely managed to raise his sword into a defensive stance.
The power and pressure behind Zanko's fist were imnse. It truly felt as though the sky itself was collapsing, crashing into Cain's body. Even with his overwhelming strength, Cain could not fully endure it. He was blasted into the ground with trendous force, the impact shaking the earth and triggering violent earthquakes across the battlefield.
Not even a heartbeat later, Hanzo pointed his severed arm toward the crater where Cain had landed. He ignited his own blood, releasing a torrent of red flas that burned hotter than the sun. The inferno engulfed the area, generating an overwhelming explosion that swallowed everything in its path.
Zanko and Hanzo hovered above the devastation, so exhausted that remaining airborne required imnse effort. Even so, their eyes were filled with cold resolve and unwavering determination.
It was clear the duo had not reached their level through luck. They had forged their strength through sheer will, through repeated battles where their lives were placed on the line again and again.
That combined strike should have been enough to destroy any normal
Middle Alpha-Oga Overgod.
Yet even then, the two Neo-Angels did not lower their guard.
Their gazes remained sharp as they prepared to dive forward and ensure the destruction of the body and soul of the Scarlet King.
Before they could move, however, thin purple lines manifested all around them.
The World Matrix was summoned, and the next second, darkness swallowed everything.
A sense of dread and horror unlike anything they had ever
experienced washed over the Neo-Angels. Unfortunately, by the ti they realized what was happening, it was already too late.
They had been trapped within Chaos Arts.
Before either could counter, a voice echoed through the darkness.
"Chaos of Worldbreak: Ragnarök."
In the next instant, a single point of light appeared within the void. It expanded rapidly, transforming into a massive arc that split the darkness apart and surged toward the duo.
Hanzo, the fla-wielding Neo-Angel, only took the aftermath of the attack. A deep cut tore across his chest, shredding internal organs,
but he survived.
Zanko was not so fortunate.
Ragnarök cut through him entirely, slicing through reinforced flesh
and splitting his body in half. His entrails spilled as his massive form collapsed. Though Neo-Angels possessed unique abilities and overwhelming endurance, they did not have instant regeneration. Being cut in half was a fatal wound.
Zanko did not have ti to suffer.
Before he could even analyze his condition, Cain seized him by the head and blasted his mind with the full power of the Imperium
Dream, forcing the Neo-Angel into a deep coma.
A cold smile appeared on Cain's face.
He turned toward Hanzo as the Scarlet Throne rose behind him, its
presence devouring Zanko's fate and existence without rcy.
