Abbadon gathered the energy around his sword. Behind him, he could hear Seraphina mumbling:33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93WDqiIRP1
"Don’t! They will kill you!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZcwKDj0aY
"They touched my woman! They hurt you! What kind of man would I be, Seraphina, if I did nothing?"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbZi0GO2c9
He marched. Whether it led to his end or to victory—no one knew. But he would not stop. He was calm. His head was clear. His walk, slow. And yet, everyone knew the rage inside him—if it could take form—even the earth wouldn’t be enough to contain it. The Queen used her power and hurled stones at Abbadon. At the same time, she summoned storms and launched them too.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZJSmSA4HZ
"Blade of the Dark – Infinitive Horizon."33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaG3KAy76N
The stones and tornados were all cut into pieces. Abbadon went after the Queen. The King landed right in front of him with nothing but his bare fists.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbUC9dev6j
"Let’s see if I destroy your ability first—or if you cut mine!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXzJT9wc8A
Fist and blade met, and the pressure was enough to destroy everything around them. Rick, Seraphina, and Nade used their power to form a wall, which nearly shattered under the impact.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05rgEiyMY7
"Do you really think you can defeat us—me?" the King demanded.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkBVkxgSRD
"You misunderstand something. I’m sure you know how I got the title of king candidate, right? The only reason I never challenged you was because you were the father of my best friend. Well—now I have no reason to hold back!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEaLqi7Bc5
The King jumped back, and rays of light crashed into Abbadon—boom, boom, boom! The Queen didn’t stop. She saw a faint line of violet light through the explosion, and the next thing she felt was the cut across her stomach. She spat blood and yelled:33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mS55EqudF
"You bastard! Be judged and swallowed by the light—Holy Judgement: Eternal Glow!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUo9QTjldU
It was as if a new sun had been born—gold and yellow, massive. The Queen let it fall on them. The King aimed both palms at Abbadon. Slowly, Abbadon’s skin began to dissolve. His flesh tore. Veins burst. And yet, Abbadon stayed calm.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJFtUZlEA6
"Blade of the Dark – Oblivion Singularity!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz141UmekYv
This time, there was no slash. It was as if he had returned the blade to an invisible sheath. First, the King’s power disappeared. Then his arm was caught by an unseen force. The sun divided, then split again, and again—until nothing remained. Not even atoms. Abbadon dropped to one knee. Doubts crept into his mind—until he heard the voice of his woman, Seraphina:33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCHNRfuT0S
"You can do it! I won’t forgive you if you die on me!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NH4QZSyew
"Who’s dying? Me? Never!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13irlHDTeX
He rose again. His pulse strong. His body in pain. His mind craving rest. But his woman was there. He was far from finished.
In the White House
"Fuck!" Sarah cursed. "I have no other choice. I’m sorry, everyone!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT00bQI7by
She typed the word America and entered yes.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRhhxtMlUD
"Damn!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8AZhkdMwW
She ran from the room and immediately saw Dae immobilized.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyM7rDluQM
"Dae!" she shouted. "It’s done! The bombs are heading our way! So you better beat the shit out of that man and hurry back to your woman. Tell her that you love her—because we don’t have much time left!"
Somewhere else
Larah slashed at Dean. He jumped back just in time—the sword barely grazed him.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgVkmlPYAB
"You really want to kill me?"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8WmO9naP1
"You’re forcing me! Move out of the way or die!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgmrl8qeyR
"Larah, please! I love you!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JCNddwjLp
"If you truly love me, let’s destroy this world together!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCSYI2Be6t
"This isn’t a solution!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtosXRLsIu
Larah shook her head and leapt at Dean. He opened his arms.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGY9OyoYty
"Larah, I trust you! We’ll go home together!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUlZRUB9Ln
"You fool!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS6Yj34cKV
She plunged the sword into his chest and released a surge of wicked energy—it exploded. Dean dropped. He was still alive, but unconscious. Larah left him behind and ran toward Sarah.
Back in the White House
"AARGHHHH!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSBSPkiZiy
Dae roared, and energy burst from his body, shattering the spears.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaiGQA8XbL
Voltra, unshaken, said coldly, "I will destroy your body until nothing remains. Let’s see how you heal then."33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiKyO0S0NE
He gathered massive amounts of thunder. Dae dropped to all fours. He closed his eyes and focused. He felt every muscle. (Dae: If what he said about my father is true… then this should work.)33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBheqS6mtrt
Voltra shaped the thunder into a lance and shouted, "Raijin’s Judgement!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKcNoNLipQ
Humans can’t use 100% of their potential—body or mind. The same goes for demons and angels. But Dae’s father was different. He had pushed himself to the point of becoming undead. That was Dae’s goal. He tightened every fiber of his body. Forced pressure into his muscles. Pushed past the limit. His body broke—and healed instantly.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bOdKlwKMZ
Then he unleashed everything. His jump cracked the ground, and the pressure pushed everything back. His legs, strained beyond limit, snapped during the leap. But his arm, bursting with force, pierced the thunder lance and charged straight at Voltra.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZDdhOKjY1
Voltra couldn’t dodge. It wasn’t a fist coming at him—it was death.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fOMbVIXb7
And Dae blew his torso apart.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wexheAUZl
Dae collapsed. His legs and one arm began healing—slowly.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbXbOKS1rk
"Miss President, please… help me get to Rayshel."33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyl77oeheh
"Yes!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SOVeovbIw
"You’re going nowhere!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa76pVnwwK
Larah appeared.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFXXdChLSC
"Where is my brother? He went looking for you!"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Eem4tPRX1
"I did meet him."33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZVXyj1g7b
Dae’s eyes dropped to her blood-drenched sword.33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk5pu1Wk78
"Damn. A bitch stays a bitch," he growled. "I knew you weren’t the right one for him when you chose Ezra! I mean—how much of a hoe must someone be to choose Ezra as a partner?"33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZqpzWWm4g
"Then I am a hoe. And now—you’ll join your brother."33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJdAc04z9e
