Memory of Heaven:Romance Written By Fate Through Beyond Infinity Time-Chapter 402 Skies Ablaze, Time Torn — Magic Showdown Against Chronos
Chapter 402 - 402 Skies Ablaze, Time Torn — Magic Showdown Against Chronos
Omega World has lost its form.
The sky is a fragment of time, and the land is the shreds of shattered will. In the midst of a battlefield where the past and future collide relentlessly, three figures stand against a singular grand entity—Chronos, its true body towering formless, composed of shards of ages, ancient cities, and echoes of all possibilities that have been canceled. The hissing sound of the wind heightens the tension, as if time itself holds its breath, witnessing the impending confrontation.
Joanna, illuminated by Michael's celestial light. As that light radiates, her silhouette sparkles as though crafted from stars. She feels a surge of power within her, a burning confidence, ready to face this great challenge.
Zeus, wielding the heavenly lightning of Olympus. Electricity surrounds him, dancing in the air, evoking the fury born from the anger of the gods. Every recess of his mind churns with memories of past battles, and in this moment, he vows to safeguard the world from emptiness.
Rui, her body consumed by forbidden cultivation techniques. Purple flames envelop her, bestowing a terrifying, mysterious aura. She feels every heartbeat as if connected to the dark power that urges her to fight without relent.
And the battle began—not merely between magic and power, but between meaning and will. Waves of energy radiated from Chronos as he launched his attack, creating a deafening tide of time. The assault struck like dark waves crashing onto a shore, obliterating everything in its path.
Chronos extended his arms, adorned with shattered clock faces. Each clock ticked ominously, reminding them that time was the most potent weapon. With a single motion, Chronos altered the temporal fabric, threatening to snatch away everything they held dear.
"Aeonic Collapse: Heart of the Erased World"
This incantation compressed a million years into a single point and hurled it toward them. If struck, their existence would be condensed as though time had never known them. In the tense atmosphere, fierce winds roared, and the stars in the sky seemed to vibrate, bearing witness to a conflict not just against power, but against destiny.
Zeus advanced first, raising his hand and shouting:
"Olympian Decree: Lightning Excommunica!"
A golden lightning strike descended from the eight layers of the sky, colliding with Chronos's time projectile and shattering it into a vortex of energy. The sound of the explosion went unheard—silenced by the very time that was being erased. A powerful aura of electricity enveloped Zeus, showcasing the immense strength and authority of the god of thunder in battle, as if both heaven and earth were united in prayer for his power.
Joanna unfurled her radiant wings and ascended. Her body shimmered, and sacred flames began to surge from within her chest, forming a spell that was beyond earthly origins:
"Flamma Domini: Lux Veritas Purge."
The flames were not merely hot; they ignited with a sense of forgiveness, incinerating the lies that time had once sown. This fire of Michael charged toward Chronos, aiming to unravel the endless knots of his will. Emerging from the depths of his soul, this fire carried the weight of centuries, penetrating the darkness of the Omega world, saturated with doubt and deception.
Chronos screamed silently, his body cracking under flames that were not fire—lights igniting memories. From every smoldering crack, his worst memories spilled out, revealing the dark tales of a past marred by neglect and unpardonable mistakes. Pain and regret began to tear at his soul as the light forced the fragments of darkness to retreat.
Rui stood atop the shattered pillar of time, her body marred by wounds, yet her eyes shone with an unrestrained spirit. In every heartbeat, her courage resonated, as if time itself acknowledged her presence as an unexpected challenger in this fight. The fragments of the collapsing world crackled beneath her, a testament to the resurrection declared in each of her movements.
She lowered her head, tracing a circle in the air with blood. A shiver ran down her spine, feeling the power flowing from that circle—a connection between past and future, inviting extraordinary strength that would strike Chronos even harder.
「極限歸無・天燼嶺焚」
Jí Xiàn Guī Wú: Tiān Jìn Lǐng Fén
(Limitless Return to Nothing — Burning the Mountain of Heaven)
An illusionary mountain rose behind him, formed from the souls he had passed, sacrifices, and self-denials. Rui glanced at the mountain, delving into each face that comprised it—they were memories etched in her life. She unleashed this technique towards Chronos, as the mountain crumbled and transformed into a black river of fire, flooding the path of time.
Chronos was thrust backward.
Chronos raised his hand, chanting an ancient incantation:
"Reversal Codex: Null Genesis Rebirth."
The world began to move backward. With each passing second, the distance between them closed in, as if time itself were trying to escape from the power of Chronos. The wounds they had inflicted upon him healed, while their own wounds reopened. Their recent victory was nullified.
Yet Joanna shouted the name:
"Michael, in the name of Light—personal time stabilization!"
In her desperation, a ray of light filled Joanna's body, granting her the courage and resilience to fight against the changes the world was undergoing. And their time—Joanna, Rui, and Zeus—was enveloped in a spiral bubble that could not be rewound.
Zeus called forth lightning from the heart of a dead star:
"Thundara Magna: Spark of Primeval Rule!"
All around him, the shimmering lightning sparkled like twinkling stars, illuminating his face filled with determination and fighting spirit. His bravery against Chronos ignited the spirit of all his companions standing beside him.
Joanna unleashed the heavenly fire crafted from seven phrases of the book of Harmonia:
"Ignis Septem: Devourer of Falsehoods!"
The blazing red flame scorched the sky, creating an orange hue that lit up the darkness. In her heart, Joanna felt the power of Harmonia flowing, an unwavering belief in fighting for the truth.
Rui, in his greatest cultivation technique, summoned the spirit of Qayin within him as a catalyst:
"Kōng Lún Zhōng Jié: Nì Yīn Pò Jiè Zhǎn"
End of the Empty Wheel - The Cut That Breaks the Final Cause
With every word she spoke, the wind whipped around her, resurrecting shadows steeped in mystery from the past. The soul of Qayin merged with her power, transforming her into more than just a woman—she became the embodiment of all hope.
The three forces united.
Lightning, fire, and the will of the soul.
As if welcoming the impending assault, the sky roared with a thunderous sound, as though the universe itself had joined forces with them. The energy they created trembled and hummed, signaling that the decisive moment had arrived.
They struck the true body of Chronos... and for the first time, the indomitable god of time screamed.
The sound of that scream reverberated through space and time, creating ripples across the Omega world. In that tense moment, all remnants of Chronos's power seemed to fade, as if the darkness that had shrouded the world was beginning to crack.
His body exploded in a spiral of light and darkness.
The tremors shattered the fabric of time in Omega. The sky fractured into six massive shards. The Black Sun dimmed—only to reignite again. Amid the eerie silence, the three forces converged, light and dark clashing in an explosion that rocked the cosmos.
Tapi saat debu mulai turun... Chronos masih berdiri. Tak terpengaruh oleh kehampaan di sekelilingnya, tatapannya penuh determinasi, menyiratkan bahwa ia tiada akan menyerah. Energi mengalir dari tubuhnya yang hancur, mengubah rasa sakit menjadi kekuatan baru. Setengah tubuhnya hancur. Namun dari pecahan waktu itu... ia menyusun tubuh baru, lebih kuat, lebih mengerikan. Kini ia menyerupai jam pasir hidup, dengan kepala manusia tanpa wajah, dan detik yang berputar di dadanya, berdarah. Suara berdetak itu menggema, mengingatkan semua orang bahwa waktu bukan hanya sebuah konsep, tetapi sebuah kekuatan yang tak terhindarkan. "Kau pikir... waktu dapat ditebas?"
"I... am the idea of continuity. And ideas do not die."
Joanna staggered. Rui fell to his knees. Zeus gazed up at the sky. Carved in darkness, they felt the weight of the decisions that lay before them. The three of them were trapped in uncertainty; courage and fear battled within their souls.
And Chronos... began to move forward.
"Now... your time is up."
Step by step... time started to freeze around them. Each step Chronos took seemed to drain the spirit of his opponents, creating an ever-thickening tension. The sound of his footsteps clashed against the void, carving out a predetermined fate.
Yet in the final moment, a faint light appeared from the west...
Was that reinforcements?
Or something more ancient than time itself? Behind the silhouette of the light, the wind blew, bringing forth new hope, as if reminding them that although Chronos was eternal, hope could still ignite in the darkness.
