BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 - Thunder.
At the time when Leo was falling like a meteor, the reality marble in Ryuudou temple was experiencing a \'shocking\' battle… Literally.
Lightning dyed the whole space with its golden color as everything was burning and crushing. This wasn\'t like any normal lightning, its effect and damage was far higher than the natural one, which turned the fake Fuyuki city in Shinji\'s reality marble into dust.
86% of the signs that showed this place as a city vanished in the first 3 seconds when the lightning fell from the sky. The ferocity and the loud sound of thunder made all other sounds disappear, leaving the thunder roaring across the reality marble.
However, even with all this power from Baal, one of the nine pillars that administer the Spy Satellite, which was boosted with Solomon\'s magecraft, Shinji\'s reality marble is still stable without any disturbance in its stability.
Although they are called the 72 Demon Gods pillars, they aren\'t the real demons. They are familiars that make up a huge ritual with Solomon\'s temple. But they aren\'t weak because each one of them is based on those 72 demons.
Solomon looked at the lightning with a cold face while observing with his Clairvoyance, suddenly, he squinted his eyes slightly because the lightning started to change.
The whole storm started to rotate at one point before the clouds in the sky joined the rotation with the lightning. In this scene that broke a lot of physics laws, Solomon didn\'t flinch as he saw a figure in the center of the storm.
Shinji was kneeling on the ground while sweating and his breathing slightly rushed. His hands were shaking as his magic circuits were fully lit on his body. He didn\'t care about the burns on his body as he was pushing his magecraft to its limits.
The mana was rushing from his body like a fountain, yet the huge mana amount didn\'t seem to belong to any human.
The Rubik cube next to him was going like crazy as it switched from a spell to another to protect Shinji\'s body.
However, his efforts weren\'t in vain as the whole storm of lightning was revolving around him. Dark clouds and golden lightning became a giant tornado around Shinji, which made a terrifying picture.
"No stop" Solomon said those words before his mana rushed and several magecraft activated inside his temple.
In Solomon\'s eyes, Shinji\'s mana doesn\'t belong to his body, but it came from an alternative source, which probably the Holy Grail, but what he cared about more is the \'Flow\' of the storm.
The storm power was strong, but Shinji was able to rotate it around him, even if the correct choice was to stop it because it was clearly exhausting for him to handle this amount of power.
So, this means that Shinji can\'t stop the flow. Keep flowing without stopping, this one of Shinji\'s Origin features that Solomon found.
Using this discovery, you can just keep throwing this guy with everything you got and exhaust him until he can\'t use his reality marble, but in this state, Solomon didn\'t wait because it wasn\'t necessary.
Taking a deep breath, Shinji stood up slowly as he looked at Solomon\'s in the sky. With his movements, the storm was rising up before he clenched his fist and waved forward.
The Rubik cube calculated the trajectory and reality marble protected Shinji before he tossed the whole lightning storm of Baal towards Solomon.
The whole storm moved like a behemoth that darkened the sky while moving forwards towards Solomon\'s temple. With its movements, the fake Fuyuki city was destroyed further, even the forests at the side were affected.
At the temple, the Demon Gods pillars looked at the dark golden tornado rushing towards them before they started their formation.
More than 10 Demon gods went next to Baal before they linked their ritual with him. When that happened, Baal, who was on a cool down because of overusing his ritual, returned to work as his eyes glowed.
Several laser beams rushed from the Demon Gods and turned into a huge formation in front of the temple. It seemed like a shield made from a lot of laser beams, but with all those holes, Shinji didn\'t think they\'d be able to stop it casually.
However, the Demon Gods pillars proved how wrong he is. Like water extinguishing fire, the lightning vanished against the shield, which was a counter magecraft ritual based on Baal, who caused the storm in the first place.
Shinji was breathing heavily while looking at the performance of the Demon Gods pillars, but what worried him is that all of them were glowing, which means all of the 72 pillars are performing magecraft with Solomon.
"Dammit! Medea, open the gate!" Shinji saw this as he knew that he couldn\'t help it.
His words seemed to trigger something in Solomon and now he isn\'t wasting anything at his disposal. Except using the 3rd Noble Phantasm, all the Demons Gods and the temple rituals were at their top performance.
When Shinji finished those words, he jumped from his place because several Demon Gods were bombarding him with laser beams, which didn\'t give him the luxury of resting or even thinking.
However, at the core of the reality marble, a woman was sitting inside a ritual with a golden sword sheath at its center.
Medea looked at Avalon in the center of the ritual before several magical-circles appeared next to her before the whole ritual started shining.
"But Shinji-sama, that thing is…" Medea tried to say something, but Shinji stopped her before he said in their link {Don\'t worry, I can take care of myself}
Medea was hesitating inside, but her hands didn\'t stop as she activated the ritual before the whole reality marble became connected to something.
Inside the reality marble, Solomon finished his magecraft as the whole temple was glowing.
*Boom!!*
Like a shockwave, a wave of mana rushed to the surroundings as it raised the dust and ashes to the sky, but it didn\'t hurt anything else which made Shinji confused.
However, that didn\'t last long because he saw the ground moving. All the trees, rubbles, rocks, buildings, and anything on the ground were gathering together in numerous spots around the reality marble.
In the eyes of Shinji, all that was destroyed by his battle with Solomon started to gather into golems.
Hundreds? No, it was ten thousand golems rising from the ground. Their average height was 30 meters while some of them reached 100 meters in height. This was a terrifying scene for anyone, but this didn\'t shock Shinji more than the effect of these golems.
Usually, the golem magecraft is used to create guards or familiars to stop the intruders because it\'s easy to use.
However, to use it in a real battle, especially between servants, is a stupid act, but Solomon was different.
His Golemancy, which is a part of Kabalitic magecraft like Leo, who uses Numerology, is far stronger than any magi.
Each Golem here can face a servant based on their physical capabilities alone, even the stronger Golems can put servants into a disadvantage despite using their Noble Phantasm, which shows how terrifying his magecraft after he got a huge source of mana.
Waving his hand, Shinji shot a wind blade at the Golems, which cut them in half, but they recovered immediately by using dirt and stone on the ground.
Shinji felt a little helpless against this immortal army because he can\'t control the flow of mana from Solomon\'s temple and he always kept his eyes for a sneak attack from Solomon or his Demon Gods.
"I really didn\'t want to use this now…" Shinji sighed before he waved his arm as the flow of time and space was changing.
Solomon wanted to teleport and attack, but the flow of time and space was very chaotic, which made him unable to calculate the correct teleportation position.
Shinji made the space and time chaotic on purpose, even if they were leaving wounds on his body, but he didn\'t care as he grabbed something from inside the space.
A red glow filled the ground as a giant gem that had the size of a boulder appeared next to Shinji. Its glow and waves of mana made all the area next to it filled with mana.
"Philosopher\'s stone?" Solomon sensed the similarities of that gem with the philosopher\'s stone, but its size and aura was very strange.
Raising his fist, Solomon shot a large beam of light towards Shinji while the Demon gods started casting spells. Fire, ice, lightning, darkness, curses, a lot of spells were shot at Shinji, even the golems rushed towards him.
However, putting his hand on the gem, a red wave of mana crushed all the attacks in the air, even the Golems fell like broken dolls, which made Solomon frown.
That was more like using alchemy to change the properties and effect of the attacks and Golems in an instant, but is that possible in Alchemy?.
Shinji didn\'t waste time as he left the protection for his reality marble and grabbed his Rubik Cube. With a twist of his hand, the Rubik cube surfaces changed into a red magical-circle, which glowed like a gem.
The cube rose above the gem on its own before a red magical-circle appeared on top of Shinji.
Solomon and Demon Gods didn\'t stop the attack, but they gathered more power and tried to slow Shinji. No matter what, the glow of the gem got weaker when they attacked, so it shouldn\'t take long to break it.
"Tell me, King of Magecraft. Didn\'t you know that Gilgamesh and Enkidu met a while ago?" Shinji said those words with a smile from the flow of space and time moved and teleported him far away from the gem.
Solomon listened to those words before his eyes widened slightly. He didn\'t waste any moment, even with the danger of alarming Beast VI, and opened the temple slightly. A large beam of light was shot towards the gem and magical circle as it burned everything in its way.
*BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!*
A large explosion hit Shinji\'s location and turned it into a sea of flames, but Solomon didn\'t stop, more and more attacks landed on the gem position as Solomon\'s expression became slightly grim because he could feel it… The divinity in the air is rising.
*Thump* *Thump*
The echoes of a giant footsteps were heard from the sea of flames, but that wasn\'t all.
Clouds, a lot of clouds, even more than what Baal caused appeared in the reality marble before they shone with blue lightning.
Suddenly, it appeared. A golden body filled with the raging divinity manifested in the sky. With a size taller than a mountain, each step was shaking the earth and all the golems lose their balance. The spells and attacks from Solomon and the Demon Gods were crushed by the blue lighting that was filled with divinity.
Once upon a time, in an era that man and gods walked together, there was a goddess. After some events, the goddess was insulted by Gilgamesh and attacked by Enkidu, so she has a huge grudge against them.
In a manner of a curse more than a blessing, she swore \' If one day, those two were to meet again on this planet. I would exert all my divinity, all my soul to protect humans\'
That goddess was called Ishtar and Solomon was looking at one of the results of her curse or blessing to the world.
A Divine Beast that even the gods weren\'t able to control, a monster that caused 7 years of famine and destruction upon the earth has appeared in this reality marble.
Solomon looked at the strongest divine beast of Sumer as he prepared his temple. He has to admit that he has no idea how Shinji was able to use something that belongs to Ishtar, even if it doesn\'t seem in his command.
Thunder and lightning were roaring across the sky before Gugalanna, the Bull of Heaven, roared as the whole area was shaking.
