MIGHT AS WELL BE OP-Chapter 1006: Unique

Before Aura Nova could act, Anthony moved first, a faint smile spreading calmly across his face as though he were merely initiating a casual exchange rather than unleashing devastation.

Quantum Manipulation: Particle Ray

At his command, the particles within the separate plane trembled violently, shaking with immense force and pressure. They collided into one another in rapid succession, compressing and refining themselves as they elongated into radiant white rays of condensed quantum force, numbering in the thousands.

Then, with explosive propulsion and a booming echo that reverberated through the dimension, they detonated forward, each ray rocketing toward Aura Nova without the slightest hesitation.

Aura Nova did not delay. She vanished in a blur from her original position, one of the Particle Rays tearing violently through the space she had just occupied, obliterating it. But the moment she reappeared elsewhere, another Particle Ray materialized beside her with terrifying speed. She vanished again instantly, refusing to be pinned down.

This time, she did not remain stationary after reappearing. She shot forward through the clouds, streaking across the sky like a missile as she dodged one beam after another in rapid succession. The sky itself seemed to fracture under the relentless barrage. She glanced briefly over her shoulder, and all she could see were endless streams of Particle Rays pursuing her endlessly, adjusting their trajectories with unnatural precision despite her overwhelming speed.

Omniedit: Command: Code Replication: Instant Reversal

Without hesitation, she replicated the very skill Anthony had used earlier to nullify her own attack. Her mana boiled violently and erupted outward as she imprinted her thoughts and will directly upon the framework of reality itself, rewriting its structure with domineering authority.

But in the next moment, the Particle Rays collapsed upon her regardless.

A catastrophic explosion erupted as the beams tore into her body mercilessly. Her form was blasted backward through the sky. Both of her hands were obliterated at the shoulders, her stomach ruptured violently, half her face was torn away, and part of her waist was shredded apart. The impact was absolute and unforgiving.

With rocketing force, she slammed down into the ground from above. The collision tore open a massive ravine, as though the maw of an abyss had been carved into existence. Dust and debris surged skyward in a towering plume, obscuring everything within.

Aura Nova felt agony rip through every nerve in her body. She gritted her teeth and endured, her mind racing frantically as she tried to understand why her Code Replication Command, executed through her Omniedit innate ability, had failed.

What she did not know was that Anthony’s Quantum Manipulation was called unique for a reason. It was not merely rare, it was absolute in its exclusivity. It could not be copied, replicated, or imitated by any method or law. Even if Lucian could somehow replicate fragments of Anthony’s arsenal, Quantum Manipulation would forever remain beyond reach.

Omniedit: Command: Logic Hijack: Perfect State

Her mana detonated outward again in a violent surge. In less than a fraction of a second, her body reconstructed itself flawlessly. Though her innate regenerative capabilities were formidable, they were insufficient for a battle of this magnitude. Thus, she directly edited her own state of existence, restoring herself to perfection in less than a blink.

Before she could even steady herself, a voice echoed through both her ears and her consciousness. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Anthony’s voice.

Quantum Manipulation: Void Encroachment

Aura Nova’s senses screamed in warning, the space around her cracked like brittle glass under unbearable strain. Then it shattered outward in a violent detonation. Before she could teleport or activate another defensive measure, her surroundings were ripped away entirely.

She appeared within the Void. An endless expanse of darkness and oppressive madness stretched infinitely in all directions. There was no sky, no ground, no orientation, only consuming emptiness. In the next instant, the Void began to encroach upon her in real time.

She felt her vitality being siphoned violently, as though invisible jaws were snapping pieces of her existence away. Her mana drained directly from her core. Her skin lost its radiance. Her deep blue hair paled subtly as her life force thinned. Whispering voices invaded her ears and mind, insidious and relentless, seeking not only to devour her physically but to fracture her mentally.

But Aura Nova resisted. If there was one defining trait she possessed, it was stubbornness.

Her mana exploded outward defiantly, surging against the Void’s oppressive pressure. Yet the Void devoured it instantly. It consumed everything indiscriminately. Still, she did not falter. She simply forced out more mana, overwhelming the void with sheer output.

Omniedit: Command: Overtime Cascade: Shattered Reality

The moment she activated the command, the Void seemed to pause. It trembled violently from within, as though destabilized by a foreign corruption. Cracks of distortion rippled through the darkness itself. Then reality imploded inward and burst outward simultaneously. The Void shattered under the cascading overwrite.

In the next instant, she was expelled, vomited out violently from the Void, reappearing upon the highest layer of reality within the separate plane.

The moment she manifested once more, Anthony did not grant her even a breath of reprieve. He did not allow her to think. He did not allow her to steady herself. He released the next attack immediately, almost as though he derived enjoyment from forcing her into perpetual survival.

Quantum Manipulation: Rampaging Titan

At his command, the sky above convulsed violently.

Pure red lightning crackled into existence, its energy suffocating and insurmountable. Every lightning streak converged upon one another at impossible speed, compressing and coalescing as they formed the colossal outline of a wingless dragon forged entirely from annihilating quantum force.

The moment Aura Nova reappeared fully, it descended.

The dragon tore downward like divine judgment unleashed from the heavens. Space fractured in its wake. Wind shrieked violently. Light itself distorted and scattered as the attack carved its path forward with apocalyptic dominance.

All Aura Nova’s sky-blue eyes could perceive was crimson. Still, she refused to remain helpless.

Omniedit: Command: Source Edit: Void Portal

Mana, space, and void bent obediently to her will. A massive Void Portal tore open before her like a spiraling vortex of devouring darkness. The instant the red dragon descended, it crashed directly into the portal with overwhelming weight. The portal trembled violently under the strain, its edges fracturing as though on the verge of collapse.

But Aura Nova refused to yield. Her eyes burned with pure determination as she reinforced the structure through sheer will and control.

Then reality flickered, a second portal, an exact replica, tore open directly before Anthony. From it, the same red wingless dragon erupted downward at point-blank range, its destructive mass crashing toward him with identical fury.

Another opponent might have been caught off guard by such proximity. At such range, even reaction time bordered on impossibility.

But not Anthony.

He simply smirked, flowing seamlessly into his next command with effortless grace and ease.

Quantum Manipulation: Space Swap

At his command, space itself obeyed. In an instant, he and Aura Nova exchanged positions. Aura Nova’s eyes widened in shock yet again as her surroundings inverted. Before she could transition into another defensive command, the red wingless dragon tore into her frame with catastrophic intensity.

The entirety of the separate plane glowed red, as though that singular color had eradicated all others from existence. The impact consumed everything within sight, and the heavens themselves seemed to scream beneath the weight of Anthony’s wicked assault.
