[Chapter 117] The Extent Of My Will

'Is.....it dead?' I ask myself as I cough out a mouthful of black smoke. I look over to see that the suit I was wearing is now an orb again, laying in my hand, but the white veins that would pulse on it are gone.

I store it in my ring as I slowly get up, struggling slightly, seeing destroyed forest surrounding me as shrubs and trees alike are flattened against the ground. I suddenly see a massive headless corpse yards away from me, causing me to jump back in fear. I stagger as I land, realizing that explosion hurt me more than I thought, then I suddenly begin to look at myself in surprise. "I shouldn't be moving at all from that explosion, what is going on?"

That's when I see it, my entire other arm is now a stub, the white gear now having black spots. I look down to see a massive hole in my stomach, burnt all the way through, letting me see my insides.

I swear as I quickly try to put mana into my suit, the pain suddenly flooding in. 'This.....fucking...sucks.....' I think with gritted teeth. The suit is back to its clean white self as it wraps around my wounds, reducing the gory scene by a large margin.

I hear a thud and look over to see the massive corpse has a front leg planted on the ground as it begins to move again, hundreds of vines suddenly growing where the head was as a rough gargling noise resounds. 'This thing isn't...fucking.....dead?!'

I stand up as a green light glows from its now vine filled head. The corpse looks around as eyes form and mandibles are created, the second it sees the capital, it screeches with hatred. The titan suddenly charges at the castle, it's loud legs hitting the ground, causing tremors to echo from underneath.

I raise my arm as I yell, "No...you....fucking...don't!"

The earth trembles beneath me as massive black tentacles erupt from the ground, wrapping around the queen with a vicious grasp. She freezes instantly as she begins to look at them before screeching. She struggles as she slowly walks forward, pulling with all her might against this sudden force.

I suddenly feel blood pouring from my nose as my vision goes black in one of my eyes, pain suddenly flooding in as my face is covered with blood, but I continue to resist. 'You are....not getting...the fuck away from me!'

She screeches as the tentacles suddenly tighten and begin to drag her planted feet back, clearly frightening her. The mana crystals begin to glow as she plants her feet on the ground and begins to pull forward, causing a stalemate of strength.

"You....are about...to feel my wrath bitch! Absolute darkness! Soul manipulation!"

Light and darkness flow from the stump on my hand as everything brightens around me as the shadows slowly gather into a large box, attached to a bolted base on the ground. Colors of black vary as a thick wire grows from the machine and attaches to my arm with a large metal plate.

"Take this!" I yell as I begin to send every drop of mana I have into the stump on my arm, the shadows from everywhere disappear as the suddenly gather on me, causing the wire to glow white. The box opens as a sphere surrounded by rings suddenly begins to spin as a large ring floats above it, aiming directly at the queen.

White arcs of electricity form between the sphere and the rings as specks of white light begin to gather in between the sphere and the separate floating ring. I watch as the queen stops and looks over at me, seeing the glowing box.

She screeches in fear as she feels a dangerous energy floating off from it, she begins to try and run in the opposite direction, only to be stopped by the tentacles that grip onto her tightly. She screeches even louder as the crystals loose their color all over her body and begin to glow on her legs with an incomparable brightness as she suddenly charges the opposite direction of me.

My hand begins to deform as the tentacles begin to grow thin. I quickly react by growing scales on it, causing it to slowly take shape again as the tentacles barely hold.

My insides feel as if their melting with the multitasking I'm doing, that's when I glance over and see the rings spinning so fast that it's impossible to differentiate them. 'Checkmate.' I think, too tired to speak, a beam of white energy suddenly shoots from the sphere as it hits the immobile queen who is screaming in fear and pain.

Her entire body slowly disintegrates from where the beam hit, causing her to screech loudly as her inside melt. She suddenly glows with a bright light before exploding silently, a massive green orb about the size of a person's body landing directly beside me, some residual vine flesh he going on it. Before I black out, I make one last effort and store it into my cyan storage ring before blacking out, faking onto the ground silently. A Ping being the last thing I hear before I am cut off from the world.
