Chapter 480 Victory?

-----

I swung my blade vertically, as an aura of red color emerged out of my sword, slicing through the wind itself and generating a shockwave that shook the surroundings. The entire ground began to tremble and anything else started to crack and crumble.

CRAAASH!

However, Celeste suddenly turned into shadows, evading my blow and suddenly emerging right above me, her sharp claws pointing at me from above.

"Abyssal Maws!"

TRUUUMMMM…!

Space itself distorted, opening a black hole within as an enormous and grotesque demonic jaw emerged from within the abyss that Celeste invoked, attempting to eat me whole.

CRAAASH!

I quickly intercepted the jaws of enormous size, easily surpassing ten meters, as I used my bare arms to stop them. My Berserk Aura continued to enhance my physical capabilities through the roof, allowing me to hold into both jaws and forcefully open them until I dislocated them.

CRACK!

"GRAAARRRR…!"

Whatever demonic entity was that, it quickly pulled back from the abyss it came from as it ran away from my very might, Celeste, however, did not waste any time. Hundreds of shadow spears emerged right behind me, raining down over my body.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

I swung my blade and unleashed countless maddening attacks. My consecutive slashes carried the power of the Berserk Aura, enhancing every single attack I unleashed. Although some shadow spears reached my body, I ignored the pain of their magical power piercing through my skin, as I suddenly charged all my energy into my legs and jumped off the ground with sheer physical strength.

BOOOMMM!!!

The ground below me exploded into pieces as I reached the skies, where Celeste suddenly conjured another powerful Demonic Magic Spell, concentrating all the darkness she could conjure and the demonic energy she held.

"Hellfire Execution!!!"

FLUOOOSSSHH!

An enormous portal to Hell once more opened in front of me, as from within, a titanic red and demonic hand emerged, holding an even more titanic sword of over thirty meters of height, attempting to slash me in half with it.

CLAAAASSSHHH!

I intercepted it with my sword, unleashing all the power I could as I gritted my teeth. I felt as if my eyes began to bleed the more I tried to resist this insane amount of power.

Crack… crack…!

CRASH!

My sword couldn't resist the pressure any longer, shattering into pieces as the Demonic Blade suddenly reached my body, only for my arms to stop it as if I were trying to stop a boulder from falling over me.

"Unnggh… GRAAAHHHH!!!"

"Cry all you want! This is it, Sylph! I've had enough of you! Die!"

I suppose… I have no other choice but to use that.

FLASH!

I began to channel all the pain, agony, and blood I've lost into my chest, a flash of red lightning emerged, boosting all my physical strength once more, as my eyes began to emit red electricity. My entire body felt as if it was a bomb about to explode.

"RAAAAAHHH! [Berserker Maddening Charge]!"

FLAAASH!

Without wasting a single second, I unleashed the powerful ability within my [Undying Berserker] Class, [Berserker Maddening Charge], an ability that can only be used every 24 hours, and channels all damage I've taken into a powerful charge that breaks anything in my path.

CRAAAASSSH!

The enormous Demonic Blade shattered into pieces before my might, as the hand hold the Blade was also destroyed as I ran across it as if there was nothing in front of my path.

"Wh-What?!"

Celeste reacted in shock, as I suddenly reached her face and pushed her down with all my might, using my arms to grab her shoulders and then pushing her down the ground from the sky where we were fighting!

FLAAAAASSSSHH!

"Let me go!!!"

Celeste screamed and struggled, using her spear-shaped tail to attempt to pierce through my entire body, but it was futile, her attacks were being easily reflected by my incredible temporary endurance.

"You're a monster…! A MONSTEEEERRR!"

Celeste cried in horror as I pushed her down the ground, like a falling meteor, I suddenly began burning and so was her entire body consumed by my flames.

BOOOOOMMMMM!!!

We hit the ground with a devastating explosion, the surroundings shook as the ground below us began to be destroyed. Without realizing it, we ended deep underground, ending up falling inside the sewers of the city, and even below that, generating an enormous crater. My flames evaporated anything in our way, only leaving the two of us.

"Unnggh…"

I ended vomiting a mouthful of blood, as my entire body suddenly went back to normal. I felt as if my soul was about to leave my body, I barely kept myself awake.

What… have I been doing?

I cannot remember a single thing.

I only remember that I was fighting Celeste and… I used a Class too strong for me to control.

And…

I was thinking…

​ About killing her.

I could only think about killing.

I am… not like this.

Why was I being so bloodthirsty?

Did Celeste really die?

Did I killed her?!

Desperately, I dragged my body across the ground, suddenly finding her body in the floor, she seemed completely defeated. Her strange form she had before which I can barely remember was no longer there, and her arms and legs were broken, her eyes bleeding, but somehow, she was still alive.

"Y-Youu…"

I suddenly heard her voice.

"Celeste! Are you okay?!"

I ran to her side desperately, feeling like a monster.

I wanted to stop her, I wanted to beat her but I had been trying to kill her all this time…

It doesn't make sense, after all the stupid things I've been talking about, I ended losing my temper and acting like a mad monster.

"You're… worried about me…?" She asked.

"It wasn't my intention to…!" I muttered.

But I quickly couldn't find any more words, there was no way to explain my behavior other than because I was mad at her.

"You're mocking me even more now, huh? Now what? Kill me already… didn't you wanted to do that?"

"Kill you…?"
