Everything will be my way!

Chapter 258

When the cloud dispelled, everyone saw Kyon completely unharmed.

No one could believe their eyes. The world-class professional fraud seemed to be taking part in the tournament! The fire, the cold, the electricity, and the darkness did him no harm! It was pure nonsense! And only a few people noticed the color of lightning suddenly turn into bright blue at the epicenter of the cloud as if the darkness itself was scared of Kyon Stone…

Kara, Juno, Diana, XiaoBai, and even Bai breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Kyon safe and sound

Juno believed with all her heart that Kyon had some new tricks up his sleeve, otherwise… – {My family will fall to the very bottom of the ranking… I want you to save us from this abyss!} – She was convinced that she was worried about her family only.

Princess Kara fidgeted in her seat. Would this bastard ever stop surprising her?! Would he ever run out of tricks up his sleeve, or he had an infinite number of them? But it wasn’t her biggest worry. ���� {Why didn’t Timothy’s darkness hurt you? If you are immune to it, why did you use the light element as protection against my darkness at Juno’s party? Was I so unimportant in your eyes? JERK!} – Kara clenched her fist until her knuckles crunched. The events at the party were a humiliating stain on her reputation. She had lost on the spiritual level, after all. And now Kyon turned out to have been playing with her without showing even half of his real talent! Kara had to interrogate him thoroughly. She’d love to see him try and evade her questions this time! She would strangle the jerk on the spot!

Timothy had been surprised for the first time in many years. It wasn’t normal… It wasn’t even possible! How could the Wrath of the Evil God fail to hit the target almost two phases weaker than him? It didn’t even touch him! It was as absurd as if Timothy had failed to crush an ant… And now Kyon was standing there with an arrogant grin on his smug face! He didn’t even wince! Who the hell was he?!

Of course, Lovr was bluffing. He had only a couple of grenades left… Nothing else would even scratch Timothy! Except, maybe…

«Bravo.» – Kyon sarcastically applauded. – «Bravo, Timothy. You truly deserve to be the most powerful young fighter in Boston. I can’t imagine an opponent stronger than you, unless, of course, members of the royal family. I must admit, your latest “serious” attack has exceeded all my expectations…» – He brushed an invisible speck of dust off his shoulder with exaggerated indifference.

Timothy stood stone-faced. Kyon was mocking him… And deservedly so!

«It would be impolite on my part not to return the courtesy. One must respect their elders. So, let’s get started.» – Kyon finished in a calm tone, his face relaxed, his eyes closed. He stretched out his hand, raising the Scourge to heaven.

There was a long pause. The audience looked puzzled.

«What the hell is he talking about? It sounds like he had been going easy on his opponents! Without those weird firecrackers, he wouldn’t have been equal to the task even fighting with Kiyan, let alone Timothy! Kyon will never defeat him, not in his lifetime!» – The spectators yelled angrily.

Similar comments were heard everywhere. Kyon was strong and powerful, no doubt about that, but his latest victory was gained by the foulest treachery. No one would respect a dishonest champion who had been using dirty tricks to win. Anyone could win this way, even the poorest weakling.

Timothy was alert, ready for anything. After a long wait, he relaxed a bit, but then suddenly, he looked around, anxious.

Vlada, Kara, Juno, the sect envoys, Fernand, Lana, and Gina froze at once, stunned. The hearts of the spectators, even those who hadn’t connected with their souls, started beating wildly. Everyone could feel the enormous pressure formed by a domineering aura.

It was devoid of tyrannical, unbridled power, or mortal danger. No one could distinguish any particular element or emotion in it… The aura was radiated by someone quite young and inexperienced like a spring chick. But even this barely sensible will could tell that in the future it will command all things.

Normally, when two practitioners release their auras, they come into conflict with each other. If the opponents are about equal in strength, there will be no special effects. If the difference is great, then the strongest will win, oppressing the spirit of the weakest, as it was the case when Lee and Kiyan met at the entrance to the arena. However, this aura was much more mysterious. It doesn’t matter how strong and powerful practitioner might be, they couldn’t reach and crush it. The aura was higher than anything like the sky that protectively extended over the trees, the mountains, and the clouds. It was rather discouraging. Those who felt this mysterious aura experienced a wide range of emotions, like anger, rage, humility, apathy, protest, etc.

It came as a shock even to Gina and Lana. Their mighty auras could bring even kings to their knees, while simple and serene vibrations of this aura had occupied the “upper tier,” completely ignoring any attempts to influence it.

Gradually, all attention was concentrated on Kyon, the source of the unusual aura. He was still standing with his eyes closed, holding his black sword pointed towards the sky.

Suddenly, the gusts of cold storm wind swept throughout the arena, exceeding the speed of Charlie’s sandy hurricane… A white cloud formed overhead. It must have absorbed all the moisture from the atmosphere… A thick layer of dust spun around at his feet, taking its own flight path, absolutely ignoring the chaotic wind… The stands on the northern side of the arena got covered with hoarfrost. The spectators huddled together, their teeth chattering from the freezing cold… Those on the southern side felt as if they were sitting next to a giant roaster. Dry hot air was burning their skin. Then out of nowhere, a bolt of lightning almost hit the long-suffering judge… And if this madness wasn’t enough, sinister inky-black mist emerged from the ground, and golden like the sun mist condensed high above…

And then something happened that overshadowed even the miracles that had just taken place. Kyon’s eyes sparkled in triumph when he finally opened them. Then the wind, the clouds of dust and vapor, the flash of lightning, the heat and the cold, the darkness and the light rushed to the tip of his black sword…

At the behest of their master, all the eight attributes made up a crazy spinning ball the size of an adult’s head. The trajectory of each super concentrated element was arranged to complete the circuit (sphere). It was just like the cycle of the creation that Kyon had devised in Juno’s mansion. The circuit made sure that the opposite elements could coexist. It went as follows: the light, the wind, the heat, the darkness, the water, the cold, the ether above, the earth below, the pure energy in the middle. The eight elements were inactive as if waiting for something.

This unattainable-perfect balance of the nine elements united in a single sphere made everyone dizzy. Nobody knew how could the 9 elements coexist when the opposite attributes interfered with each other. Didn’t the heat and the cold level each other when attacking the same target? Didn’t the darkness and the light elements create a spatial attribute with no destructive potential?

«HE’S GODDESS’S MESSENGER!» – XiaoBai roared reverently, raising his hands to heaven like a prophet. Kyon asked him to do a dramatic scene yesterday.

«Goddess’s messenger?!» … «He has mastered nine elements?! Is it even possible?!» … «His aura… It’s awesome! Kyon Stone is definitely goddess Danna’s messenger!» – The audience hummed in confusion, grasping their heads.

Kyon was endlessly happy that stupid Timothy had given him enough time to prepare the full version of the technique. Without wasting time, he rushed to Timothy, clutching the Scourge with both hands. The nine-elemental destructive sphere, also known as the annihilation sphere, rotated on the tip of the sword.

The sight made Timothy cringe. Even if the difference in their cultivation was two phases, he wouldn’t dare confront this damned never-before-seen thing! Gods know how dangerous it might be. However, it didn’t seem to be very powerful. It must be at the end of the superior phase max.

{Goddess’s messenger? I don’t give a crap! I won’t lose!} – Timothy firmly decided to win and waved his hands. His body got covered with a thin film of bright moonlight. His unique body’s ultimatum technique formed with the light attribute granted short-term resistance to any element slightly increased speed and quickly healed any wounds. It was definitely not the time to go easy on him now!

Everyone knew that the genius in the Brown family bended 4 elements, but he had never used the light before! It was clear that Timothy was dead set on winning.

Keeping his distance, Timothy began to fire at Kyon with the paired techniques of the ether and the darkness. As expected, they harmed neither his opponent nor his sphere! It seemed to have the same resistance as its owner!

«You can run away all you want, coward. I can maintain this technique as long as I need it!» – Kyon chased him, adding fuel to the fire.

It was a rather weird and unexpected sight: the generally recognized Brown number one was cowardly trying to escape his opponent, who was 18 stages weaker than him!

{How is it even possible?!} – The same question echoed in everyone’s mind.

{How long am I going to bounce like this?!} – Timothy thought irritably. Upon reflection, he decided to provoke Kyon to launch his crown technique. Timothy was certain he would be able to protect himself or just dodge… As soon as this damned upstart lost his precious sphere, it would be the end of him!

Timothy reduced the distance between them and with a scream: – «Don’t you dare to underestimate me!» – He menacingly swung his sword, pretending to launch a terrible ether wave…

All the spectators held their breath.

Kyon activated the “flash of light.” His body sparkled with dazzling light so bright as if a few suns had risen at once… Everyone who saw it experienced short-term blindness, nausea, itching and pain throughout the body, ringing in the ears, dizziness, and disorientation.

It had the strongest impact on the judge and Timothy. In a brief moment of confusion, Timothy reflexively jumped back…

{What a fool!} – «Take this, quitter!» – Kyon exclaimed valiantly, cutting the air with the Scourge. The annihilation sphere fixed on the tip broke away from the weapon and crashed into the chest of the retreating opponent.

As soon as it touched his flesh, the sphere enabled the crucial command. All at once, the eight elements collapsed into the core where the pure force, the 9th element was located. They united into a single entity that went beyond understanding.

Everything seemed to go into slow motion. Kyon could hear distinct heartbeats thundering in his ears.

*flash*

The ripples flowing from the epicenter of the collision wrapped the space like in a curved mirror. With a dull thud, it spread in all directions in a flash, refracting the light and the sound waves as well as the matter, including the earth and the air. When the flash reached the protective barrier that had successfully blocked the noble phasers’ attacks, it instantly snapped and crumbled like glass. As for the nephrite that maintained it, it simply turned into dust.

Timothy’s light and either barrier, along with pure energy, had absorbed the lion’s share of Kyon’s supernatural attack, but its remaining power was enough to bite into his rib cage to the bone. The injured area looked very strange. There were no burns or cuts; blood didn’t squirt in all directions either. There was no flesh at all as if an invisible scalpel cut it off, smooth and perfect!

Timothy shuddered. He touched his chest with a vacant stare and then collapsed on his back like a sack, either from serious damage or severe pain.

The silence that fell was complete.
