475 Flames That Burn Divinity
Helcan started to feel uncomfortable despite showing seemingly absolute tolerance to pain previously because Vaan’s flames were no longer just burning the physical world; he was learning to target his soul — his divinity.
Thus, Vaan required practice. And due to time-constraint, he had to improvise.
From white flames to dark grey flames, then light grey flames, Vaan continued to apply different concepts — different actualizations to manifest flames with different effects.
Each time he got closer to his goal, his flames also became fainter in color. At the same time, Helcan’s incarnation also felt increasingly frustrated and furious.
“Stop it! I said fucking stop it! Don’t you dare use such disgusting flames on me, you wretched human!”
“And I should stop because you said so?”
Following Vaan’s retort, he trapped Helcan’s incarnation in a cage of very faint grey flames, leaving the person nowhere to run—not because the person couldn’t, but because the person didn’t want any contact with his flames.
“Dammit! I gave you a chance to serve a great Rank 6 divine being and above billions of lives, second only to me in my divine kingdom! And yet you dare refuse and anger! Don’t you fear my wrath?!”
“No, but you should start fearing me.”
“How impudent! You are but a mere Peak-stage Demigod, while I am a Peak-stage Divine Spirit! The gap in our power is as vast as the earth and sky! Even if this incarnation can’t exhibit my full power, there’s nothing you can do that would make me feel threatened! To you, I am everlast—Arghh!!”
Just when Helcan’s incarnation became heated in his speech, he was struck by something that made him feel pain unlike anything he had ever felt before and definitely on a completely different level compared to the previous flames.
If the early flames were like small tugs on his soul, the latest one was like a butcher knife that cleaved into his soul!
It was a gut-wrenching, soul-tearing sensation that reached the very core of his entire being! Helcan didn’t just feel threatened; he actually felt fear — fear towards a mere Peak-stage Demigod!
“You!” Helcan’s incarnation pointed his finger at Vaan with an intense glare and barked, “What kind of flame did you just use?!”
“You didn’t see it? Try taking another look,” Vaan smiled coldly after he finally succeeded in manifesting his special concept.
Of course, he didn’t give his enemy another chance to make a comeback or escape; he struck Helcan’s incarnation with the full might of his new flames that seemed invisible to the naked eye.
“Arghhh—!!!” Helcan’s incarnation squealed like a pig getting slaughtered.
He couldn’t see Vaan’s flames, but he could clearly feel his divinity… burning away! His divinity was getting burned away by a Peak-stage Demigod’s Fire Authority!
That said, Vaan’s flames weren’t really invisible. There were outlining distortions and tears in space that made it seem like his flames were hidden.
However, where the main body of his flames should have been, nothing could be sensed. That’s because there was nothing there at all!
“T-T-This is…! But, no, that’s impossible! How? How can you wield such power?! No one in Chaos should be able to wield the power of nothingness anymore! How?!”
“Well, I am someone who can pick up the slightest details and learn from it. But as for what I learned, why should I tell you? Also, this isn’t Chaos; this is Pangea! So just go ahead and fuck off back to Gehenna, you son of bitch!”
After giving Helcan’s incarnation the middle finger, Vaan watched him burned to nothingness, body and mind, by his Flames of Nihility.
Indeed, Helcan had been right on the mark regarding the nature of his Flames of Nihility.
He had implemented the powerful concept of nothingness into his comprehension of the Fire Law, though it had taken him numerous attempts before he succeeded.
The concept of nothingness was something he had come to learn after hearing about Chaos and chaos cycles from Narvim. And he experienced first-hand its destructiveness when he found the Realm Fragment in the Red Goblin Mountains.
The Realm Fragment wasn’t sharp because it was a dimensional shard; it was because of the remnant power of nothingness attached to the concentrated power of existence.
In order for Chaos to exist eternally when all chaosverse were fated to fade to nothing… It had to be because it was overflowing with the power of existence to counteract nothingness.
This wasn’t a difficult conclusion based on logic.
In order to manifest the Flames of Nihility, he had to understand that fire isn’t just about the state of being hot; it was just one aspect of the Fire Law. The main aspect of the Fire Law is the ability to burn and destroy.
Since nothingness also had the power to destroy, it was possible to create a link and manifest the flames that could burn away one’s existence.
The power of existence made anything possible; the only limit was one’s imagination and level of existence.
Chaos, Gehenna Realm Within a star system with seven planets, Helcan’s furious roar resounded throughout the barren-looking red planet, which was also the fourth planet in the star system.
Helcan ruled the entire red planet; it was his divine kingdom. And in this world of red, the denizens of his Divine Might Kingdom all felt his fury during his outburst. Even the other Great Devils were alerted by it.
“Dammit—! I swear if you step into Chaos, I will use everything at my disposal to kill you! How dare you harm my source of divinity!”
Helcan bellowed with rage within the walls of his shiny, red stone castle that looked like it was made from the crystallized blood of countless warm-blooded beings.
After Helcan’s incarnation was burned to nothingness by Vaan’s Flames of Nihility, his soul was damaged.
Although he could exploit his divine kingdom’s resources to recover, restoring the soul damage would take several hundred years. The extent of his power was also reduced during such a period.
Considering Chaos was full of chaotic, turbulent situations, being in such a state was the same as allowing others to exploit him.
“Someone seems rather feisty today. What happened?”
“Piss off, Balmodan! I have no interest in entertaining you today!”
Helcan glared menacingly at Balmodan, finding his self-invited, sudden visit unwelcoming.
