Chapter 1319 Battle Within ORIGIN [Pt 2]
"LEWWIIIIIISSSSS!!!"
Karlia''s voice reverberated through the nk canvas of ORIGIN as she lunged towards the two.
Legris was right in front of Lewis, smiling evily as he brought his hand closer to thetter.
If he managed to touch Lewis, that was the end.
The fact that Legris could match Lewis by transforming his body into an incorporeal state meant that Lewis could not evade the assault.
He could not defend against it either.
''It''s over!'' Legrisunched his hand to obliterate his foe.
Unfortunately for him, he underestimated the speed of Lewis'' partner.
Not Karlia… but the Automaton.
~Matter Amplification~
Instantly, nano portions of The Urs burst forth, creating a wall between Lewis and Legris, while alternating their mass and density so that Legris couldn''t easily phase through them.
Of course, Legris could easily destroy them—which he proceeded to do—but that gave more than enough time for Karlia to close the phantom gap that existed between her and the two.
~WHOOOOOSSSSHHHH!!!~
The moment Legris destroyed the severalyers of Urs''s mechanical barrier, Karlia was already far above him.
"Hup!"
She sent her right leg crashing upon Legris, the full force of her strength reinforcing the attack.
Normally, the world around them would shatter as a result of the shockwave, but ORIGIN did not.
As the firmest foundation that held the entirety of existence together, it was built tost.
If it could withstand the continuously growing power of [All Things], surely, it could withstand the sh of two Primordial entities.
"Haha… nice one." Legris muttered, though he remained unaffected by her strike.
The moment she struck, he had raised his hand to block the strike.
"Hmph!"
~VWUUUMMM!!~
An instant repulsing effect pushed Karlia back, causing her to be temporarily suspended right above Legris.
He took this chance to reach out for her, a sickening smile on his face.
''Immortality or not, if I absorb you, it''s all over!''
Karlia was suddenly pulled back, however, by The Urs.
She used a certain frequency that was exclusive to the two of them, independent of the presence of other concepts, to draw Karlia to her.
As a result, Karlia was barely able to escape Legris and his attempt to destroy her.
"Tch."
Lewis reappeared behind Legris, his fist hardened by an armament that was made from immensely condensed Nether.
Of course, Legris knew such things were incapable of harming him in the slightest, but he felt it would be insulting if he let such an attack hit him.
He swiftly dodged Lewis'' first strike, which was followed up by flurries of various techniques generated through Martial Arts.
Legris noticed the kic energy movement and flow of Lewis was in a constant state of flux, moving in the offensive, and he could guess what would happen if he was hit.
''There''s no point if he is unable tond an attack, though.''
As long as Legris was superior to Lewis, and the entire concepts that they based their knowledge and skill of Magic on didn''t exist in this ne, all of thetter''s efforts were useless.
''I can just destroy him. Unlike Karlia, he isn''t immortal.''
Legris strengthened his fist and decided to go for a powerful blow rather than his ssic ''existence erasure.''
~VWUUUUUMMMM!!!~
The power that rose from him was enough to attack Lewis'' body towards him—like objects that were naturally pulled to a ck hole.
"Die."
Despite the defense of Lewis'' Grand Mage Mode, and the several enhancements he had on, he knew full well that he could not survive a single blow from Legris.
The only reason he had been able to keep up this far was due to Karlia sharing her power with him through [Connection].
He was not Boundless, and neither was he a Primordial.
He was a mortal.
And death… death was certain.
''The Urs won''t be able to generate a defense for this in time, and Karlia won''t make it in time…''
Was this the end for him?
~VWUUUUUUUUMMMMMM!!!~
Much to Lewis'' surprise, a crimson blur rushed past him as he felt power drain from him.
The crimson blur was none other than Karlia, and he felt his [Connection] with her end.
That meant only one thing.
''She increased her power''s efficiency and utility by removing my ess to it!''
As a result, Legris'' powerful strike hit Karlia, turning her body into several chunks of mincemeat.
She took his ce and died.
… At least temporarily.
~VWUUUUMMM!!~
Lewis was dragged towards The Urs, and not too long after, Karlia''s body reformed right beside him.
Both of them appeared unscathed, but they were both shaken by how close they had been to losing.
This was an extremely close fight, and it was also too one sided.
Any single mistake would code them everything.
As for Legris, he was watching them from a distance, a deep frown on his face.
His arms were folded, and he was ring at them in silence.
''This tricky trio… they''re annoying to deal with.''
In this ce where concepts were broken down until they were rendered nonexistent, the use of Magic was pretty much impossible.
All conventional Spells required some kind of concept to operate.
The only exception here was the individual.
''I can use Magic to affect myself and others, but nothing native to ORIGIN.''
And the same applied to them.
''That''s why Karlia still has her immortality. This is troublesome.''
What made it most annoying was her ability to evolve to be even more powerful after every fatality she received.
''That hit she received just now… she''s gotten more powerful after it.''
The only way to eliminate her was by erasing her existence.
However, that required physical contact.
''The Automaton is equally problematic. I''m sure they''ve developed a countermeasure to prevent me from destroying it.''
As all these factors yed over in Legris'' mind, he smiled broadly and showed his sharpened teeth.
''There''s no need for me to continue this farce.''
It was about time to end it.
