DEVIANT-Chapter 438 - The Face behind the Beyond

438 The Face behind the Beyond

Thud!

Alex took a bold step forward as he intended to chase but then a blue blur was already right in front of him, slashing out madly.

Hmph!

Buzz!

Alex raised his feet coated in black flame scales as he kicked at the blade with immense force, creating a wild explosion as Belial’s figure was blown into the air.

Xiu!

Alex appeared above the fleeing figure of Belial and he gazed at him with disdain written all over his face.

“I exist to destroy. I destroy to exist... You cannot compete with me” Alex sneered as he prepared to attack but then a scorching bright light shine brightly drawing his attention away.

Above the clouds, a lone figure stood with his muscles bulging rapidly. The armor of the cosmic spirit of sun had shattered due to his rapid increase in strength, leaving Alex terrified. This was the first time he was seeing someone with who his power could keep rising.

.....

If he was three stars in the rating a moment ago, now he was already four stars and still rising!

Hmph!

Alex kicked the air and shot toward the figure above. Since his man is proving to be the main problem between him and Belial, Alex concluded it’s best to kill him before things go wrong.

“I don’t remember giving you permission to harm my rising star” A cold voice rang in Alex’s eyes sending shivers down his spine.

Swoosh!

Boom!

Alex was blown back and sent spiraling down to the ground.

“Kill him” The Beyond’s voice rang but it wasn’t from the body of a fat man in the attire of the pope.

God descent!

Alex frowned as he realized what happened. The beyond is still cautious of him but that didn’t mean he couldn’t join the battlefield safely. Now that Alex has shown himself it would be hard to believe the Beyond won’t make a move against him.

“Understood” Belial responded to the Beyond’s orders as he gripped the hilt of his blade and took a stance.

Universal sundering slashing!

His eyes raged with power as his movements remained unseen yet thousands of sword lights danced dangerously around his location waiting for Alex to fall in.

“Impudent!” Alex’s eyes blazed with fury as his descent was halted abruptly his heartbeats began ringing across the battlefield.

The world trembled as his body released crazed black energy which rose to the heavens hastily while taking the form of a mighty black furious Buddha!

Infinity core: One true God!

Alex threw an open palm down and the mighty hands of the Buddha descended on Belial like a mountain falling atop a human.

Not good!

Belial paled and quickly slashed out at the black palm with all his might at this moment he knew death was around the corner.

Boom!

Alex frowned as he noticed his attack didn’t hit his required target. His cold gaze shifted to the heavens above and he saw the pope standing with Belial in his hands. He wore a meek smile and radiated majesty.

“Space power,” Alex said with a deep frown on his face.

Even though the Beyond was only residing in the body of a mere mortal, the pope’s strength could be rated four stars. His involvement in this fight will make it even more difficult but Alex seemed reluctant to withdraw.

He planned to put an end to this war tonight and conquer the northern province by morning.

Hastening his plan is the only way he can make it in time to aid his other half.

“One true God? You are cocky enough to use such a name... It would be an honor to consume you” The pope said as he revealed snake-like tongue while licking his lips.

Seeing this, Alex could only frown as he felt a strange feeling about the Beyond. it felt like there is more to this being than what even he and the god of death knew combined. 𝒇𝚛𝙚𝙚𝘸𝙚𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎𝘭. c𝑜𝘮

If the Beyond managed to consume all the gods of his god vein then he is qualified to become the sin of greed but for a reason, he wasn’t chosen.

Alex felt like this did not happen because he failed to meet up to expectations but something more.

Thud!

The pope descended from the heavens majestically and began walking toward Alex with confidence in his eyes.

“Belial...Sun... Support me. I will lead the attack from now on” the beyond said calmly leaving Alex disturbed.

Buzzz!

Alex suddenly felt the world around him distort as if something was meant to happen but it failed. Strangely he was the least stunned among those on the battlefield.

“The Beyond failed to steal his time?” The Cosmic spirit of the sun was stunned.

In their final battle against the God of death a thousand years ago. They were able to shift him out of the realm because the Beyond was slowly stealing his speed until he wasn’t fast enough to evade the trap.

Even now not many know that just like the God of death who ascended and became the sin of greed. The Beyond was among the pioneer gods created by a god vein.

They were gifted with the most unique power in the universe but something unexpected happened. The greed of the Beyond was so strong, he became a sin while he was still mortal and consumed his fellow gods.

All the cosmic spirits present are powers belonging to the gods of that God’s vein.

The real ability the Beyond was born with was not spatial magic. It was time, magic!

“The power of time” Alex muttered with a frown as his face turned paler by the moment.

The enemy far supersedes his expectations and that is what he finds most terrifying about the lady.

At this point, Alex truly believed that the Beyond wasn’t stripped of the sin of greed. She simply ignored the title and her duty, that’s why she seemed to vanish from existence, waiting patiently for the birth of a new sin of Greed that she will consume.

Damon Ross has been her target from the very beginning!
