Chapter 457 Tricking a Demon is not advisable for Halloween

AT THE SAME TIME, AT THE BATTLEFIELD SITE.

Two enormously powerful figures, who were both releasing ungodly amounts of power, continued to unleash their prowess as they repeatedly clashed with each other.

Sounds of destruction and chaos filled the area of their battle, making any unassuming bystander shrink back in fear.

Just the results of their clash alone was enough to intimidate any weaker beings, as there’s just nothing that can compare to the apocalyptic scene that these two had unleashed.

"Why don’t you just die, huh?" One of the figures, who appeared to be a red-skinned demon-like humanoid, shouted out as he waved his hands. Numerous weapons, the kind that can annihilate the existence of life itself, sprung out behind the demon, unleashing deadly blasts that destroyed matter around him.

"Boom boom boom!"

"S**t! Just collapse there and die already!"

From the way that this demon talked and moved, it seems as if he was extremely frustrated at this point.

As for why he was acting like this, the answer to that lies on the person that this demon was fighting against.

"I won’t die because I am strong. Just accept that fact already, Traveler Malthus." The opponent replied, with his blue armor rippling in response to the demon’s attack.

An ethereal shield, one that was seemingly made up of lightning and spatial distortions, materialized and blocked the demon’s attack.

"Pishh..." The frighteningly ferocious beams of death that the demon has sent dissipated like bubbles in face of this shield, as if it was nothing else but scrap paper against it. Only the aftershocks of these attacks remained, which proceeded to unleash their wrath on the surroundings.

This naturally drew more frustration from the demon himself, who looked like he was about to tear off his head in sheer irritation.

"Hmph! I can accept the fact that you are strong. But for you to last this long against me? That is something that I cannot accept!" The demon, who was no other than Traveler Malthus, replied angrily as he brandished more weapons behind him.

This time around, the weapons pulsed with more sinister and deadly aura, something which was able to elicit a slight frown on the blue-armored person.

"Your power is Soul Manifestation, and it allows you to materialize your ability from the power that lies in your soul." The blue-armored person said as the weapons behind Malthus continued to increase. "That means that as long as you apply the proper variables and factors on your power, you can essentially be unbeatable."

"..."

"in your case, your Soul Manifestation allows you to summon and manifest all kinds of weapons. That kind of power.... is extremely flexible and reliable. " The blue-armored person continued to say as he began waving his hands around him. "Only your imagination is your limit with your power, although your soul power is also important."

"Cut the crap already, you puny one! Why would I waste my time on you, when you are just a portion of the real Traveler Alex, huh? Instead of delaying me, just receive this attack of mine so that we can be done here!" Malthus bellowed angrily as ignored the blue-armored person’s words. "Tsk, I already attacked you many times, and yet you still did not dare to attack me back? What the hell is wrong with you? Do you think that you can just get off fighting me this way?"

In face of this provocative words spoken by Malthus, the blue-armored person, who turns out to be Blue Alex, only shook his head as he said,

"Original Alex’s protocol to me is simple: I must delay you as long as possible." Blue Alex said monotonely as more and more shields appeared around him.

Just like earlier, Blue Alex only used his power for defensive purposes, with none of these shields leaking an intent to attack. They were only there to defend Blue Alex, and they seem to be doing their job pretty well.

"You accursed rat! So you are indeed delaying me!" After receiving this sudden confession from Blue Alex, the already irritated Malthus looked like he was about to blow up already.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was fighting now, then Malthus could have continued cursing. But instated of doing that, Malthus began takin deep breaths to himself to calm him down, a method which seemed to have some partial success.

"Hmph, even though I don’t like what you are doing, I can certainly say that you are doing a fine job on delaying me. Not many can do this." Malthus said in a more subdued tone. "However, you should know that the powers that I used on you earlier is not my real power. That’s just-"

"Its just around half of your real power. I calculated it already." Blue Alex said, interrupting Malthus’ monologue. "I don’t know why you are just using half of your power earlier, but that played right into my plans. So I thank you for being a great help in this battle...."

"Hah? You think that I helped you out with this? Idiot! I just suppressed my power earlier so that I can measure your strength!" Malthus said as he let out a barking laughter. "You said that you were calculating my power? Hmph, then good for you! But you should know that I am also calculating your power, and the results of that calculation is up to my expectations..."

Without waiting for Blue Alex to give his reply, Malthus continued to talk as he materialized more and more weapons behind him.

"You may be a Sixth Stage Being, but compared to my real power, you are still weaker than me. Don’t try denying that. My calculations earlier had verified that." Malthus uttered as he stared down at Blue Alex. "Maybe if you were combined with the original Alex, you might still have a chance to win. But now? If it was only you that is fighting me, then you’re already doomed!"

"..."

"My playtime with you is over already. Now, receive my real power and die like a coward that you are. I hope that your original body will feel devastated by your death." Malthus declared in a lofty tone as he crossed his arms. "Nothing else can make me happy more than that..."

"..."

This time, around a million weapons of all sizes had materialized behind Malthus, with each one oozing murderous auras that made the nearby people shrink in fear.

Unlike the weapons that Malthus used earlier, these weapons were definitely of a higher-grade. Even the stoic Blue Alex acknowledges the fearsome prowess of these new weapons, so much so that he slightly backed away when they appeared.

"I thought that your real power will be around Peak Sixth Stage, but now that I see it, your real power is about to reach Half-Step Transcendence. How interesting...." Blue Alex muttered as he stared at the aura released by Malthus. "Is this your real power all this time? It doesn’t seem like it..."

"Heh, why do you waste your time asking those questions? Instead of asking like a demented duck, you should use your remaining time to save yourself!" Malthus shouted out as he pointed his fingers at Blue Alex’s body. "I don’t know why you are trying to delay me, but whatever that reason was, I think it is of no use to you anymore. Just accept your death, and perish with the thoughts of your failure!"

"Failure? I’m sorry to say this Traveler Malthus, but ever since you began fighting with me, my victory is already assured." Before Malthus could unleash the ’hell’ that he had been itching to release since earlier, Blue Alex suddenly said these words, with his cold, calculating eyes staring at Malthus like he was just a lab subject. "Even if you attack me now, my allies had already succeeded on their plans, and there’s nothing that you can do to stop it."

"Huh? What are you-"

"Look above you. What do you see, Traveler Malthus?" Blue Alex coldly said as he interrupted Malthus. "When we were fighting earlier, you were too busy on trying to kill me that you were unable to observe your surroundings. Now, I am giving you a chance to see the truth. Go on, Traveler Malthus. Go forth and observe what you had allowed to happen."

"What nonsense are you speaking this time, puny one? That is just..... You little s**t! Is that the-"

"Yes, that’s the Blue Moon, now destroyed into thousands of pieces by one of my clones. If you were not busy with me earlier, then you could have prevented this from happening." Blue Alex replied faintly as he saw Malthus’ reaction on the destroyed Blue Moon.

"You little...." Malthus’ face was twisted in extreme anger at this point, making him appear even more fearsome compared to before. He looked like he was about to eat a person alive, something that might make any child cry in fear.

Only Blue Alex remained calm in face of this ferocious appearance, and he even appeared to be enjoying what he was seeing, although he did not express it on his cold face.

"That’s it, you little s**t! I will end you right now to end this f**king farce! I don’t know what you are trying to pull here, but will make sure that it will fail! Now, go and die already!" Malthus bellowed as he commanded his weapons to unleash all of its fury towards Blue Alex.

"Even if you kill me now, it is too late for you to stop us from winning." Blue Alex breathed out, with his body pressurized by the power released by Malthus’ weapons. "All your plans, whatever they are, will be in shambles now that we made our move. So just watch and marvel at my original’s method to win!"

"Boom!"

It was at this point that another sudden change had occurred in the Four Moons World.

Unlike the destruction of the Blue Moon, or the sudden appearance of the Cosmic Guard, the change this time around had a higher impact on the world itself.

Even Malthus can verify this, as he inexplicably stopped himself from unleashing his attack.

"..."

He, along with Blue Alex, could only stare at the skies above them with open mouths, observing the new object that had just appeared above them.

An illusory planet, one which was as large as the Four Moons World itself, loomed all over them in a domineering fashion.

No signs of life could be felt from this planet, although one can see many weird and overarching structures strewn across its surface. There were also spurts of unknown energy leaking out of this illusory plane, which fortunately dissipated before they could reach the surface of the Four Moons World.

With its massive body hovering near the Four Moons World, almost everyone in the world saw it, and all of them had the same reaction as Blue Alex and Malthus.

"..."

Even though this planet does not appear to be real, the pressure and its sheer size was enough to make Malthus sweat inwardly.

Even if Malthus was already near to the point of perfect recovery, he realized that there’s something intimidating about this illusory planet, that not even him can take it lightly.

Once he reached this line of thought, Malthus let out a grimace before he looked back at Blue Alex.

At this point, Blue Alex was also staring at the illusory planet with a surprised face. But within that surprise also lay a victorious expression, something that informed Malthus on what was actually happening.

"So that illusory planet is part of your plan? Hmph, so this is where you laid all your hopes then. Tsk, I hate to say this, but this looks like an actual winning plan for you." Malthus thought to himself as he observed the illusory planet’s gargantuan body. "But do you think that I will just allow your plan to work? Hmph, since you displayed such a large planet to me, then I will just have to attack it!"

"Swing...."

Malthus’ weapons, which had been pointed at Blue Alex earlier, now swiveled and changed their target.

Obviously, their target right now was the illusory planet itself. There’s just no way that Malthus will not attack it, not with the way that Blue Alex had hyped this up.

"I don’t know what you will be used for, but whatever that is, I will never be able to know that. After all, you will be destroyed by yours truly." Malthus said calmly as he added more weapons on his arsenal. "If you were just a lot smaller, then maybe you could have a chance on surviving against me. But since you chose such a large form, you can only blame your fate for meeting me..."
