In a blink, Freyâs blades tore through Dragoth without mercy, unleashing a torrent of destructive aura shells.
Fighting like a lunatic, Frey realized he was no longer sane ..life had pushed him far beyond that point. All he could do now was create illusions, sanctuaries of the mind.
Every time he fell into despair, Frey had forged a new version of himself ..stronger, fiercer, more unbreakable.
And this Freyâthe current oneâwas the ultimate embodiment of all that accumulated suffering. A merciless beast.
"LOOK AT ME!! Look at the monster Iâve become!!!"
"Ten Thousand Steps of Shadow â Frey Starlight Style: Nameless Judgement!!!"
BOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!
With one devastating blow born of madness, Frey split the very world in half, obliterating Dragothâs body as he tried to resist.
"THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED TO SEE, ISNâT IT?! THIS IS THE MADNESS YOU DEMANDED!!!"
Grabbing Dragothâs mangled face, barely holding together...
Frey dragged him across the battlefield, grinding his face into the ground and anything standing upon it.
"I am a killing machine! I was born to slaughter! Born to destroy! And yes...death and destruction! Thatâs exactly what Iâll deliver!!"
Frey screamed into Dragothâs face before tossing him away ..only to chase after him like a beast.
"The boy is dead... the weakling who cried and suffered from your games is gone! He no longer exists!!"
He hurled Dragothâs body again and againâthen paused suddenly, gripping his opponentâs shattered face once more.
"Look at me," he said, slamming Dragothâs face into the ground once again.
"LOOK AT ME!!!"
Screaming madly, Freyâs body erupted, unleashing utter devastation.
"Ignition."
With a single word, a nuclear-level ignition shook the world once more, firing a colossal pillar of dark aura toward the sky.
From that blast, Dragothâs body was completely obliterated ..leaving behind nothing but his head... and a fragment of his chest.
Dragoth couldnât break free ..Freyâs grip remained firm.
"What do you see when you look at me? What exactly do you think resides inside me? What is it that you expect of me?! Thereâs nothing left... nothing but the void."
"The voidâand a raging hunger... an unending thirst... a madness with no bottom!!"
Freyâs body trembled uncontrollably. His eyes lost their light and quivered in their sockets.
Everything... slipped away.
"DEATH! Thatâs all thatâs left!!"
Hurling Dragothâs body toward the sky, Frey brought his swords down upon his enemy.
Words no longer came from his mouthâonly meaningless, chaotic scribbles as he lost himself completely.
His sword unleashed a blazing violet arc that shook the world. He had lost the clarity of mind even to name his attack.
The Nameless Judgement became a wailing elegy ..mourning his current state.
Frey unleashed it once... then again... and again...
The sky turned violet. His hand burst from the sheer pressure, flesh and bone scattering across the battlefield.
But he didnât care. He kept attacking until nothing was left of his enemy but ash.
He walked across the battlefield, whispering words that held no meaning...
He had become the killing machine he once dreamed of.
The monster who could endure anything.
The monster who would never stop fighting ..no matter how brutal life became.
A beast who would fight... until death.
Frey started walking... then running... then leapingâflying.
With terrifying speed, and a black, ominous aura crawling over him...
He charged toward anyone who dared raise their sword against him.
"Kill them," said all the versions of Frey at once.
"Rip them apart. Annihilate them. Every single one who dared curse us with this life."
"Donât stop running. If you canât run, walk. If you canât walk, crawl... but donât stop. Not until every last enemy is dead."
Leaving behind the crater of destruction he had created...
Frey abandoned everything and lunged forward ..toward where his enemies awaited.
He spoke rapidly, but what came from his mouth wasnât language... just whispers from the depths of hell.
He covered a monstrous distance in a blink ..threatening to obliterate anything in his path.
But his berserk advance was haltedâ
When a massive pillar of light descended from the sky, engulfing him mercilessly and obliterating everything around him.
Frey crashed violently to the ground, but he immediately twisted back up, scanning for the source of the attack ..
Only to see her floating high above in the sky... looking down at him with blatant contempt.
"Is this the answer youâve chosen, Frey Starlight?"
Waving her wand, Beatrice prepared for battle.
"Iâve lived long and seen much... but Iâve never encountered anything like you..."
Even the eternal witch herself hadnât lived long enough to witness a creature so twisted and deranged as the one before her.
Frey crawled slowly along the groundâbefore vanishing entirely.
Even in that state of madness... he could still teleport.
He erased the distance in an instant.
Magic resistance triggered automatically, preventing Beatrice from reacting ..
And his swords threatened to erase her from existence.
But she didnât say much.
"Heâs all yours, Beleth."
At the moment she spoke his name.. just as Freyâs blades were mere inches from her face ..
A colossal fist emerged from the void, slamming into Freyâs right side and shattering his body.
One strike crushed his bones and tore through his flesh ..sending him flying away like a ragdoll.
The figure who struck him descended from the sky, charging across the ground toward Frey.
"This is the monster youâre all afraid of?!"
His voice was harsh and gravelly. His body was massive ..well over three meters tall.
His hair was a wild, bloody red, and his eyes were consumed by shadowâonly a cursed red gleam shone through.
He bore two hornsâone of them brokenâand his body was covered in some strange, black substance.
He collided with Frey, mercilessly crushing him.
"I came from far away just for the chance to enjoy a good fight! Donât disappoint me!!" he roared with laughter.
Beleth â Demon of the 18th highest rank.
One of the demons of the Black Faction.
He laughed maniacally as he raised his massive fist again, aiming to pulverize Frey further ..
But his smile vanished instantly...
When Frey disappeared ..reappearing behind him in less than a heartbeat.
One moment ..then hundreds of violet slashes tore into Belethâs body, shredding him without mercy.
"Donât underestimate him!! Fight him with everything you have!!"
Behind Beatrice, hundreds of celestial spheres materializedâbombarding the battlefield mercilessly, targeting Frey.
"I know, damn it!" Beleth growled.
Unaffected by his injuries, he charged forward, his fists blazing with seething dark aura.
He collided with Frey head-on, even as Beatriceâs infernal barrage rained down upon him.
Amid the chaos, Frey never stopped talking.
He kept producing sounds from his mouth.. but they werenât in any language.
Just meaningless, guttural scribbles.
"What sort of curse are you trying to place on us, Frey Starlight?"
