§249 The Success or Failure of the Declaration
"The future declares, in the next second my sword will pierce your chest."
As the demon god finished speaking, the destructive magic power wrapped around Eve began to stir again, preparing to meet the final blow.
This time, the demon god did not hide in the darkness and wait for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. He just hovered in the air, holding a blade made of black mud and pointing it at Eve not far away.
Behind the demon god, the deeper darkness transformed into countless tentacles, dancing wildly, trying to swallow everything.
If there was anything wrong, it was that the number of demons was slightly larger - at this moment, wherever Eve looked, she could see the figures of demons holding long swords, and she could not tell which was real and which was fake.
The strange things didn't stop there. Eve had seen several times that the destructive magic she released had touched these figures, but as if both parties were not in the same dimension, the destructive magic just passed through those figures without causing any effect on them.
But the mysterious thing is that in Eve's perception, these figures really exist, completely different from the previous clones that appeared through the future and could be attacked by destructive magic.
Tsk, in the end I can only counter each move with my own tactics.
""Death Sign Nova""
Seeing that she was surrounded, Eve gave up the Black Prison Magic Cannon that could only attack in a single direction, and instead condensed dazzling purple-black stars in her palm.
Since the demon couldn't block her abilities related to destructive magic, Death Nova could still be used normally at this time, but the other magics had been restricted by future limitations.
As the last second passed, the atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense, and whether the declaration could become a reality was about to be revealed.
It was Eve who took the first action. Although she was surrounded, she didn't like to hand over the initiative to others.
At this moment, the Death Nova has been condensed. The originally huge meteorite has turned into a small and dazzling bright ball, lying quietly in the palm of Eve's hand.
Although this small ball looks extremely calm, the power hidden in it will turn into a destructive wave that sweeps away everything once it erupts.
Due to insufficient charging time, this Death Nova cannot reach the power that destroyed Zero, but it should definitely not be underestimated.
As Eve gently stretched out her right hand, the moment before she was about to drop the ball in her hand, the demon also moved.
Those countless figures seemed to be controlled by the same person. They instantly transformed into countless black shadows and attacked. Their target was Eve's chest, just as stated in the declaration.
In terms of numbers, if all of them were hit, it would not be enough to just be pierced through the chest, I'm afraid he would be directly tortured to death.
But what was faster than them was the erupting storm of destruction. The action of throwing the small ball just now was just a bait. Even during the condensation period, the Death Nova could be detonated in advance at any time. The process of condensing into a small ball was just to facilitate throwing it in a specific direction.
But in this wave of destruction, those black shadows seemed to be unaffected and continued to rapidly approach Eve, until the moment their blades touched Eve's body.
As if some restriction was triggered, the moment the long sword in the hands of the demon clone touched Eve's chest, they no longer had the ability to avoid any interference. The storm of destruction immediately tore their bodies apart, but after that, more black shadows continued to surge in like moths to a flame, trying to pierce Eve's chest as the declaration said.
And with the cover of the destructive storm, Eve's fingertips were quietly wrapped with a new magic.
Only the magic she has demonstrated once will be restricted by the demon with future limitations, which means that she can still kill on first sight.
Although the power of Death Nova was terrifying, she didn't think the Demon God would be defeated like this. However, she still had to make the necessary sarcasm, because the fifteen seconds declared by the Demon God had already passed.
"Hey, fifteen seconds have already passed, you crazy-talking charlatan?"
Although she looked a little disheveled at this moment, with wounds all over her body, Eve still acted like a winner and spoke loudly.
"..."
But there was no response from the dark space, as if the demon had died under the Death Nova.
Due to the consumption caused by destroying a large number of demon clones, the destructive storm formed by the Death Nova is now nearing its end, and the dark space is slowly returning to calm.
And in the next moment, a long black knife appeared out of thin air like a knife cutting butter, tearing straight through the destructive magic in front of Eve and piercing her chest.
"You're happy a little too early. Sixteen seconds is the real declaration."
The figure of the demon behind the long sword was a step slower to appear. He looked at Eve's petite body that was pierced in front of him and said coldly.
"And the success or failure of the declaration does not determine the outcome of the battle."
"Yeah, I know. After all, no one would directly tell the true prophecy no matter how hard you think about it."
It was as if it was not herself who was pierced in the chest. With her chest already eroded by darkness, Eve looked at the demon in front of her and a bright smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
“Is the act of making a declaration itself part of making the future a reality? I certainly think so.”
Eve had heard a lot of arguments about this in her previous life. There was a routine process where a person wanted to stop the prophecy from coming true after hearing it, but accidentally brought about the predicted ending with his own hands, and then regretted it and tried to change the prophecy again.
Then, after hearing the story, many people would come out to argue whether things would have developed in the direction of the prophecy if there had not been this prophecy. This would then turn into a war of words, and finally deviate to the point where they would ask about each other's immediate family members and personal health.
Ahem, I've gone off topic. Since I've heard many similar stories in my previous life, Eve started to consider this possibility after hearing the Demon's so-called declaration of the future.
If the other party wanted to make that future come true, then his declaration should also have a purpose, such as letting her relax her guard after fifteen seconds, and then taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack or something.
However, this also happened to be in line with Eve's plan. Now that they were in this dark space, the demon had an absolute geographical advantage. If he wanted to make his attack directly contact the opponent's body, the safest way would be to do so at the moment the declaration was realized.
If the declaration was to come true, the demon god would have to appear before her and pierce her chest with his blade, right within her reach.
And this is exactly her goal.
§250 Origin of Extermination
'What is this guy thinking?'
After responding to Eve's ridicule, the Demon God looked at Eve, who had been pierced through the chest by him but suddenly smiled. Suddenly, a warning sign flashed through his mind, which made him feel strange.
It was obvious that his strength had begun to erode the opponent. Considering his previous injuries, considering this guy's current condition, let alone posing a threat to him, he probably couldn't even move a finger.
What's more, he is only using part of his will to control this body. Even if this body is completely destroyed, it will not have any impact on him. So where does this warning sign come from?
Destruction magic? Unlikely. The previous attack should be the opponent's strongest move.
The power of that destructive storm was indeed terrifying. In order to prevent this black mud space from being shattered, he even urgently attracted black mud from other abysses to replenish it, and only then was he able to barely hold on.
In order to withstand that blow, he also sacrificed all the possible clones that appeared in conjunction with the future declaration, which can be said to be a heavy consumption.
Of course, the fact that he can now pierce Eve's chest is also thanks to the sacrifice of those clones.
The death of each clone is equivalent to eliminating an unrealizable future, so the probability of him achieving his declaration in the remaining future becomes higher and higher.
In the end, the reason why Eve failed to react to his move was because the outcome of this knife had already been determined. No matter how he stabbed, the end point of this attack would end by piercing Eve's chest.
As for if Eve did not resist, the result would not change. She would just be pierced directly, and the declaration would still be fulfilled. It can be said that the last blow was an unsolvable killing game.
Just as the demon was about to say something, Eve spoke before him.
“Is the act of making a declaration itself part of making the future a reality? I certainly think so.”
Wait?! She'd already considered this possibility? Was she planning to launch the final attack after the declaration, when the opponent's guard was down?
But what if I've already thought of it? What can I change? My power has already eroded the other person's body. I'm afraid this guy can only show off his strength with words.
Haha, she is still too young. I believe that after my training, she will become a capable chess piece in the future.
But at this moment, an accident happened——
"Got you."
Eve, who should have been corroded to the point of being unable to move, thrust her hand straight into the demon god's chest. At her fingertips, a dark magic circle flickered with a dangerous glow...
—·—·—·—·—·—·—
'It worked. '
Looking at the demon god that appeared before her and the blade that pierced her chest like a declaration, Eve smiled knowingly in her heart.
Although she didn't know how the other party avoided her perception and broke through the protection of her destructive magic to pierce her chest and fulfill her declaration, the fact that the other party was within her reach was enough.
"Origin Extermination" is the name of the magic that is now wrapped around her fingertips.
In contrast to the magic of resurrection and reincarnation, this is one of the few magics in the origin magic that has the ability to directly kill.
Compared with the two spells whose effects sound powerful, the effect of this spell can be said to be a bit simple. In a nutshell, it gives the user the ability to directly cause damage, and it is limited to direct contact.
To be honest, this move has serious limitations. This kind of damage to the origin cannot be added to other attacks or weapons. It can only be used by hand, and you also need to find the location of the opponent's origin in the opponent's body before attacking.
That is to say, you need to use this magic to reach into the opponent's body and stir it around, then after finding the origin, crush it with a "snap".
To be honest, Eve felt that for most people, even if she didn't use the Origin Kill, she only needed to wrap the destructive magic power in her hands and then reach into the opponent's body and stir it around randomly, and the opponent should be dead. There was no need to use the Origin Kill at all.
However, the severe restrictions brought about a terrifying effect. For the high-level guys who had a dozen recovery methods per person, this ability that could not be resisted and could directly cut off the opponent's source of life could sometimes have a decisive effect.
Moreover, for the demon god at this moment, this magic is one of the very few means that can directly attack his consciousness itself rather than this body.
Of course, in order to prevent possible erosion, Eve also made additional secondary preparations.
At this moment, Eve's self-healing ability as a vampire has been restricted by future limitations. In order to avoid exposing the fact that she still has a body with dragon blood, she chooses to fill her vampire body with the magic of destruction. Every time she is injured, she will take the opportunity to protect the wound to integrate the magic of destruction into it, replacing the part of the vampire element.
It can be said that although she still looks like a vampire, her inner self is no different from the dragon mode that is filled with destructive magic. It's just that her body has not become as mature.
In other words, her body is now entirely made up of destructive magic power, and the demon's erosion has no effect on her.
In order to avoid the devil's suspicion, Eve also thoughtfully did some tricks on her chest, leaving a little magic power of the vampire state, so that the devil would think that he had successfully invaded her.
However, she was still a little short of the final attack because she needed some time to find the origin of the demon.
Taking this into consideration, she pretended to be careless and mocked the Demon God even though she knew that the enemy would most likely launch an attack after the declaration.
Because Eve knew that if her attack missed, the demon would never give her the chance to get close again, so she had to win with one strike, otherwise she would be beaten into this miserable state in vain and would have to hide her trump card.
She casually chatted about the future declaration to buy time, and Eve concentrated on feeling the place where the origin was hidden in the body of the demon.
'found it. ’
Right at the heart, that is where the will of the devil resides.
With a smile on her face, Eve suddenly attacked the demon in front of her. Her fingertips, wrapped in destructive magic and the origin of killing, pierced straight through the demon's chest and caught the demon's origin in her palm.
"Got you."
Just like a chess piece knocking on the chessboard to declare a checkmate, the battle is about to end with this blow.
§251 Defeat the Enemy
"Origin Extermination"
Accompanied by Eve's soft whispers and the pain from the deepest part of his body, the demon knew that he was doomed this time. In the end, he unknowingly underestimated his opponent again.
He thought he could rest easy as he was just controlling a body with his will, but he was slapped hard in the face by reality.
The other party had no intention of destroying this body from the beginning. After all, it was just a shell. If it was damaged, it would not have any impact on him.
This guy has always been aiming for something more deadly and crucial—his will hidden within this body.
Although he didn't know why the other party had this method of attack, he was completely screwed this time.
Chirp——
With a strange sound, the origin grasped by Eve's fingertips was crushed into countless pieces without any resistance, and then returned to nothingness.
What followed was pain that was enough to drive ordinary people crazy countless times. This pain originated from the source and could not be resisted or adapted to. It was like skinning a person alive inch by inch again and again when they were in the most sensitive and awake state. It was a torture that could not be described in words. Even with the powerful will of the demon god, he could not help but groan, and it was obvious that he had suffered a great trauma.
"Die here."
Restraining the pain from the bottom of his heart, the demon stared at Eve in front of him with a ferocious expression, and completely gave up the idea of eroding her and keeping her as a chess piece.
Everything in this body was burned and turned into power to maintain future limitations, ensuring that the seriously injured Eve would be unable to escape. Then the body itself began to expand little by little.
The originally stable energy bulged out on the skin of the body like boiling water, forming small bags and then erupted. The turbulent flow formed by the black energy danced wildly, almost destroying everything.
Although most of the energy has been used to maintain the effects of future limitations, the power of this body formed by the remains of the demon god and half of the world tree after self-detonation cannot be underestimated.
Even this dark space that had withstood the Death Nova began to tremble. The black quagmire turned into countless tentacles flying all over the sky. From time to time, some tentacles would explode into powder all over the sky, followed by an even more terrifying chain of explosions. It was obvious that the demon had pressed the detonation button.
A newly created body, half of the world tree, five pieces of demon remains, and a space that consumed an unknown amount of abyss black mud. The demon spent a lot of money to completely destroy the seriously injured Eve, but he was destined to lose everything.
"..."
After a final, resentful and serious look at Eve, the demon's will completely disappeared in this space.
The Origin was damaged, even though only part of it was a serious injury. This directly cut off his ability to control this space. Therefore, the Demon God could no longer confirm with his own eyes whether Eve died in the explosion. He had just made all the attacks he could.
