BXBX NOVEL Chapter 299 A Death Threat
Back within the forest, the Four leaders, along with Teach, watched in stupor as the battle of Gods unfolded itself.
Teach was also surprised, this was the first time he found himself gazing at the power of Transcendentals ever since he was born... which was not even months ago.
As for how they could all keep up with the speed of the two fighters, it was all thanks to Teach. He slowed down the actions transmitted by the mirror-like glass he summoned, at a much slower rate.
Thus allowing the Four fellows to be able to read along the battle, and watch how fast they were. Of course, only two picoseconds had occurred outside, but to them, seconds had passed by.
\'Unless I were to increase their innate perception, this was the only way I can help them properly watch the battle, and enjoy it as it is.\' He thought to himself.
By simply slowing down the process recorded outside, to them inside, an easy feat. Thus, by now, as they were still experiencing the battle, Enigma and the Transcendentals were done fighting.
But that was for them and their comprehension, as for what Teach saw? It was exactly what was happening. Thus he could not help but reminisce of the fight, hoping to revel in the power of Gods in his thoughts some more.
Back to the time when only two picoseconds had flashed by, and the battle was taking on a different level of power. When things really turned exciting!!!
"...."

Enigma was here not only to defend his people, and the forest under him, but also because he needed resources. And he needed them from not only a single being.
Which is why he knew, \'The longer the battle lasts, the more chances they would be for the other three fellows to join in, one way or another.\' He thought.
Thus giving him a reason to target them. After all, the current him was not so keen on just taking their lives for no apparent reason. Whether they could revive, or not.
Especially ones like Aeneas, and the last of the Four Transcendental Gods who had yet to open their mouth ever since they appeared. As well as the two watching from a distance.
...Under normal circumstances, he wouldn\'t want to kill them. But only under normal circumstances. The current him only required a chance, \'Just a single chance, and I\'ll act to sever them from the Laws themselves.\'
He would happily slaugh– ah, pardon that, happily collect resources from them. That previous term was a bit too vulgar for someone the likes him.
BOOOM!!!
His thoughts were cut off, as powerful waves of power exploded out of Sun God Sane\'s body.
Power levels that rivaled the force of an entire Universe according to the System Battle Analysis. A genuine Universe.
But Enigma\'s defenses were within the millions of Multiverses in equivalence. \'And one thing I\'m was curious about, was whether the damage of the opponents, ignores my damage completely.\'
\'Or rather, it just deals the intended damage, regardless of defense. There was a difference between the two after all.\' He thought, his thoughts transcending time.
\'The first, meant that even with defenses of a Reality, a person with a single ton of True Damage could still deal extreme damage, as if the opponent was just an ordinary being with no defenses whatsoever.\'
\'While the Second, implied that even with the defenses of a Reality, a person with Universal True Damage would be able to deal that amount of damage. Yet that was all.\'
\'They would not kill the opponent, as they opponent still required damages worth Realities to truly feel genuine pain or death. The target only ignored damage worth the attack.\' He was curious which was which.
"...."
He silently thought, as Sun God Sane finished making his preparations. Right at that moment, a couple tens of picoseconds more had gone by, almost making a hundred.
"Now that\'s more like it!!" He roared out in excitement, as his body exploded out into bright light so intense, it literally colored everything in absolute white, overshadowing the darkness he had brought out.
The light intensity was even capable of blinding even Gods themselves, as even Enigma was forced to cover his eyes. He could also barely sense anything, including himself.
"HOOOOOORRAAAA!!!"
BOOOM!!!
And at that moment, a powerful war cry sounded out within the whole God Realm, followed by an explosion so powerful, it delt unbearable damage to the soul itself.
It even reflected through the material plane, as air itself was pushed back, and space shattered. But unfortunately, the one who was supposed to receive the damage, did not receive anything.
"...."
The sorounding light slowly died down, revealing Enigma standing before the large fist of Sun God Sane. A fist so large that it was more than twice his size, towering his small frame.
It was a few inches away from him, as it was stopped by a thin, well decorated rune-barrier he summoned. A Runic Barrier manifested through "Chantless Rune".
And it reflected his damage into defense. Thus it was worth a wall formed by millions of Multiverses, Quintillions of Universes grouped together, in simple terms.
And his curiosity was satiated. \'I see. So this is how True Value damage works, huh.\' He thought to himself.
He now knew how True Damage delt damage to opponents. It applied both his previous guesses into one, thus making it the more Unique.
It ignored all that was not True defense, or at least Divine defense, while dealing Absolute damage. Thus Enigma\'s defenses should have been ignored at this moment, but they weren\'t...
"Calculating damage-– Your excellency has recieved damage of equivalent to an imploding Stella Universe"
"You have defended the damage by applying "True Defense" Runes within your "Cosmic-Barrier Protection""
Enigma read through the Analysis and nodded to himself. Just as he thought, Advanced Divine Arts were higher ranked Divie Skills as well, in their own right.
\'Thus the "True Defense" Rune that allowed me to temporarily turn my Defense into True Defense was sufficient. The Barrier by itself, was also capable of defending me for a while.\' He thought casually.
"It\'s seems, you, by yourself, is not enough to represent this so-called New Era." Enigma spoke up in apparent provocation, when everything calmed down to silence.
He was not arrogant, but nor was he humble. He was representing the Old in this fight, in response to the challenge the young Sun God issued out.
\'Thus, I am looking forward to what this ending Era has, that they could claim it theirs to such an extent. And yes, I am being painted to be the bad guy in this situation, and I actually don\'t mind.\'
"Who said I am all by myself?" Sun God Sane\'s gigantic Stella form let out a devilish smile as he inquired, pulling back his fist during the process, ready to lay out yet another punch.
One still carrying the force of an exploding Universe, the force of a Reverse Big Bang, a force capable of destroying all things, instead of creating them.
p An dD ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.cO,,m "Oh?" Enigma let out such a word of curiosity, but was not expectant of anything. He knew that, this battle was not a one on one battle, and he was still going to patiently wait.
Not even a single nanosecond had gone by ever since they began fighting and conversing. Thus he could still wait for the other fellows to join in on the battle.
\'But little did I expect that time, to be now. And as for the main question, it would be, who amongst them would attack? Or would they all attack at the same time?\' He thought in intrigue.
\'And how? How would they attack a being capable of defending millions of Multiversal damages?\' He was at least expectant of knowing that much.
"Yeah, Hahaha. So– DROP DEAD!!!" Sun God Sane threw out a punch so powerful, that for an instance, it seemed to carry an illusion of a Universal Sun. A Sun so great, it eclipsed the size of ordinary Universes.
Now imagine if such a Star, went Supernova... no, it would not be considered a Supernova anymore. But something more terrifying. More devastating.
A Meganova.
The fist exploded towards Enigma at terrifying speed that, once again, transcended Time itself. It was as if, to the fist, Distance and Speed did not apply to it.
"...."
But Enigma only waited, with a hint of expectations. He waited, along with his Runic-enhanced "Cosmic-Barrier Protection". While comprehending the information coming from Fate and Destiny.
And as those two judged, the fist instantly arrived before the cosmic-like barrier he formed, just an inch away from making contact.
And at that moment, something strange occurred. Or rather, it was expected considering that everyone here were Transcendentals.
The cosmic-like, runic-enhanced barrier, slightly flickered in and out of place, becoming more transparent and Illusory as if it was a mere visage of its former self. \'Oh..?\' And Enigma slightly exclaimed at that.
The fist bypassed the barrier, and fell towards him with the unprecedented force of a much more powerful Reverse Big Bang. \'I will have to give you praise for this.\' He added to his thoughts.
As to him, it was clearly too slow.
Even with the Realm and World Suppression, Enigma\'s Speed that was worth an entire Reality\'s worth of distance per second, was still Hyperversal.
And in the current time ratio they were moving at, he could still instantly traverse Qaudrillions of light years. Instantly. Right before even Time itself could respond.
Basically, he was nigh-omnipresent at a Universal scale!!
\'But it brings yet another question. Does True Value also affect speed?\' He had such a thought, as he was using everything here, including this whole battle, to verify most of his hypothesis.
He immediately wanted to prove yet another one, as he was about to slightly pull back a bit. But things were just beginning, Sun God Sane really said it before...
It was not a one on one battle.
「DON\'T MOVE!!」
Such words rang out directly within the deepest parts of his consciousness, a consciousness so vast and grand it could comprehend even CHAOS itself.
The words sounded Absolute and Strict, like a Commander from High Above that could not be rejected. Enigma had such an impression as his body truly listened without hesitation.
\'Ah? A Commandment Inducement type of a Skill, you say?\' He thought, as his thoughts not only Transcended Time, but it was to a degree where not even all Cosmic Gods could compare.
Everything came to a halt as he had these thoughts. \'According to the information from you guys, this comes from the cloaked lass, right? Both Abilities come from her?\'
He lightly inquired from Fate and Destiny. For once, he did not use the System to view the templates of someone else, as Fate and Destiny were already enough.
To him, anyone could be laid bare before his will with just but a single one of these authorities, that were at 45% each, perfected High God level.
\'They were below Transcendentals, I know, but if used together, as they had great Affinity towards each other, it added up to 90% authority, which was Absolute towards even Elder Gods above themselves. Thus I am nigh-Unstoppable here.\' He wilfully thought.
Even Transcendentals could be laid bare for him to see through to an Irresistible Degree. What was there for him to fear, or worry about when he could always be ahead of his opponents?
