72: Glass

[Flashback Continues]

Klein stared deeply into All for One's face... No, into Nothing's face. He didn't know who this 'Nothing' person was, but he knew that this person was dangerous because of the feeling he got from them. It was dreadful... Like when he died, even though he wished to forget it, he still remembers how it feels to die. Suddenly, nothing opened their mouth and a black liquid started to pour out of it, Klein could feel the Void Energy within this liquid... No, this was pure, liquid Void Energy. Klein watched as eyes appeared within the black liquid, white eyes with red and purple pupils.

"HEHEHEHE" Nothing began to chuckle, from the liquid not only eyes appeared but also mouths, which started to chuckle with them. Soon, thousands of voices started to chuckle and laugh out loudly, they soon started to speak in a different language that Klein could not understand but it shook his mind if he didn't have a mental barrier to protect his mind, he would become insane by now. Or maybe he is already insane? That's also a possibility. "YAHAHAHAHAH" Nothing broke the body's jaw in a laughing attack, the broken jaw moved with the laughing Nothing as they shook their head wildly. "FINALLY! I AM FREE!" The black liquid began to grow and morph around Nothing, creating a shell... Klein moved his hands and tried to use [All Mighty Powers: Erase (SSS)] but it didn't work, why? Because it uses Void Energy to erase things from reality, and because Nothing is made of Void Energy, he is immune to it.

So Klein will have to use the opposite energy to damage Nothing and the opposite of Void Energy is Cosmic Energy. Klein had to focus now, his hand glee white with some sparks of white lightning as Cosmic Energy was being channeled through his body, soon the shell hat was surrounding Nothing cracked and a mass of black, bulbous liquid-like flesh and tentacles appeared... Nothing was happy, he no longer was no one, he no longer was nothing, for they were now something and everything else should be nothing, everything else should no longer exist.

The creature's thousands of mouths shouted a monstrous screech, making Klein's mental barriers shake, this was a strong mental attack probably (SSS) near (Z) rank to shake his mental barrier aggressively like that... Klein pointed his finger towards the creature and a pure beam of Cosmic Energy shoot towards it, hitting it, and exploding, pushing black liquid everywhere. Klein did not end there, he used more Cosmic Energy to blast every single black dot on the ground as it regenerated and multiplied, each black drop was growing fast into a clone of the killed monstrosity. It continued, 2 became 4, 4 became 8, 8 became 16, 16 became 34, 34 became 68, 68 became 136, and this continued. Klein was tired of this, so he raised his hand, channeled a great amount of Cosmic Energy through his body, and slammed his fist on the ground, a white flame spread out of his body in a circular wave.

It was like throwing a rock in a still, calm pond of water, the ripples spreading fast and the center of the ripples being the start of it. This wave of white fire extended for hundreds of kilometers, everything it touched that wasn't considered an enemy was ignored completely by the flame, but the black liquid burned and was being destroyed. Klein watched as the black liquid moved and wrapped around his feet, pulling him, he used Cosmic Energy to push and burn the liquid away, but now and more of these tentacles of black liquid began to appear, they all had mouths that were laughing and making him feel a pain in his head as the mental attack he was suffering was getting stronger slowly.

However, his body was also adapting quickly to this, making his mental barrier stronger too.

Suddenly, the mouths stopped and started to scream. Klein could not hold anymore as his mental barrier broke, and the screams sounded different from before, they were calling him... But suddenly, the screams gave in to the whispers he was hearing before, the whispers wanting him to destroy every living thing... His theory was right, there was an Inheritance for this ability, the desire to destroy everything was there as he looked at the black liquid that took the opportunity when Klein had to deal with the mental attack to wrap around his body. Suddenly his flesh began to melt and become the same black liquid, but it regenerated faster than it was being melted... Klein could not hold anymore, he hasn't committed genocide in centuries! He has controlled himself to not destroy a whole country, but now he doesn't care anymore. Klein gave in for one second...

Just one second was enough for his mind to be invaded, but because he could not be controlled, Nothing could do... nothing. Nothing had to leave as what he saw was not even something they wanted to deal with, what they saw was enough to make them want to return to the void immediately... What he saw was the one who gave Klein his [All Mighty Powers: Superior Adaptability (EX)]. He saw the Omni-Being who runs the Afterlife Battle Royale... He saw the Gamemaster, and the Gamemaster just looked at the concept that was trying to control the mind of one of his winners but failed miserably. Of course, not even he could control this winner anymore, this winner is completely out of his control, which makes him his favorite. And because he is his favorite, he will watch intently the show that will now happen.

Klein held his head as the whispers stopped.

Klein sighed...

With his sigh, a single sound was heard by every living entity in this universe.

Glass breaking.
