Chapter 1904 The Celestial Showdown. I
"You have grown bolder, child," Ymir responded calmly to the taunt, his eyes on Felix.
"You're wrong." Felix smiled coldly, "I have just gotten strong enough to match my attitude towards you." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Felix always behaved like this when he possessed the confidence to back him up. Now that his strength was equal to the three rulers and could be considered as their peer, he had no intentions of looking up to them.
Ymir remained silent, understanding that Felix had nothing to them but utter hatred. Although Felix was hiding it pretty well, Ymir could easily see it in Felix's frigid eyes.
Thus, he knew that it was time to stop being sensible and using his words.
"As you wish, little one."
With a slow and conscious motion, Ymir reached behind him, his massive hand gripping the hilt of a sword that seemed to be forged from the very spine of a primordial beast.
He raised the sword high, and as he did, it began to glow with an intense blinding light. Felix narrowed his eyes at the glowing sword, sensing that Ymir was infusing it with his unique radiant divinity.
This made him understand that he shouldn't bother relying on his laws too much as Ymir had turned his sword into an erasing tool.
"Shall we?" Before Ymir's words could register in the ears of the viewers, he dashed forward, his spine-like sword cutting through the air with terrifying speed!
Felix didn't falter.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the center of the battlefield with a raging black sword, meeting Ymir with an earth-shattering impact!
As their swords collided, the divine radiance of Ymir's sword and the chaotic energy of Felix's flames clashed violently, unleashing a shockwave of unimaginable force!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
The air exploded outward in every direction, a roaring storm of light and darkness intertwined, as the sheer power of the collision obliterated everything in the vicinity!
Mountains crumbled, and the sky above rippled like the surface of a disturbed ocean as if reality itself couldn't withstand the clash of such opposing forces!
Athena, Aeolus, Artemis, Hades, and the rest of the viewers across all dimensions could only watch with their breath held, realizing that the time had finally come.
"Both parties are going to go all out..."
The moment Athena said this, Felix and Ymir separated and stood a mere tens of meters away from each other.
For celestials, it was the same as standing nose to nose!
Yet, none of them made a move as they kept gazing at each other's eyes, seemingly frozen in time.
This lasted for quite a while until even the tenants began to question what was going on.
"What are they doing? Why have they stopped?" Nimo wondered in confusion, "Shouldn't my father take the initiative?"
Most of the tenants shared the same reaction, having no clue why they stopped so close to each other.
"You guys are mistaken." Eris broke the silence with a solemn tone, "They are actually fighting each other, but in their own minds."
"Huh?" Candace tilted her head in confusion.
"What do you mean exactly?" Thor frowned, having an idea what was she implying, but not daring to believe it.
"From that single interaction, both of them managed to measure each other's strength and started simulating the fight in their minds." Eris smiled wryly, "It's like chess or similar games, the masters think a few steps ahead, but the grandmasters think up to tens or even hundreds of steps ahead."
"For those two monsters...They can think up to billions of steps ahead, but since both of them can do the same and they know it, the outcome eluded them."
The tenants remained silent, gazing at the two frozen celestials, having no clue how to react to such a ludicrous explanation...But, it made the most sense.
"Amun-Ra attacked straightaway, forcing Felix to react instantly. But, Ymir backed off from the first confrontation and Felix matched him." Lady Sphinx said, "If we can gaze at their minds, I am certain we will see a similar battle ongoing."
Lady Sphinx had hit the nail right on the head.
Right now, Felix was facing one of the toughest mental battles he had ever experienced.
Although he didn't possess all the information about Ymir's powers, he realized that it was nearly impossible to defeat him without exhausting his celestial energy pool.
But, every method he tried was blocked by Ymir, leaving them to keep trading an infinite number of blows!
The same situation was going through Ymir's mind.
'This child's powers are too tricky to deal with.'
He thought as he watched Felix's imaginary form alter reality to block their access to the universe's heart...Since such an move was on his mind, he had its counter already prepared.
However, just as he was about to use it, he sensed that Felix had blinked, which implied the end of their mental stimulation.
As expected, Felix pulled away from Ymir and extended his palm in his direction, his expression as stern as ever.
"They say that thinking too much on an simple task can cause a mental paralyze..."
He paused as millions of gigantic void rifts opened up all around them, each one more grim than the other.
With an faint icy scowl, he continued, "Defeating you is as simple as it can get and doesn't require all of these mental hoops...All I need to do is overwhelm you!"
With a snap of his fingers, gigantic void cannons and rifles had their muzzles emerge from the millions of void rifts around Ymir, all pointing in his direction!
Ymir gazed at the gleaming muzzles akin to an war prisoner about to get executed. He could feel the divine aura emitted from each weapon, making him understand that Felix had prepared those divine abilities way before they created their move.
"You came prepared, but if you think this is enough to overwhelm me, then I am afraid you are setting yourself up for disappointment, little one." Ymir smiled kindly.
Felix narrowed his gaze coldly, not appreciating being talked down.
"Let's find out."
The moment Felix was done speaking, the canons and rifles started firing at once, causing the skies to tremble under the barrage of their assault!
Each bullet or canon ball shot forward with the intent to tear through everything in its path, their auras alone were enough to cut through reality itself!
'Divine Destruction bullets, I see.'
Felix's celestial form was in perfect control over his powers and emotions, he didn't need to merge his laws personas to create the law of destruction.
He could easily create it and with the laws of finality added to the mix, his laws of destruction were getting closer to the same potency as Asna's!
Still, Ymir stayed unfazed and raised his hand calmly, trying to open up portals to devour the incoming destruction bullets, knowing that each one was capable of destroying galaxies!
But, Felix wasn't done.
"Divine Seal of Finality!" Felix roared, his voice booming across the battlefield.
A sigil of radiant light appeared on the skies above, sealing the entire battlefield. The seal glowed with an foreboding energy, making it impossible for any new abilities to be called forth!
"Oh."
Ymir watched with an unbothered expression as his divine portals failed to manifest due to the seal's authority being higher.
He didn't seem too concerned...His lips curled into an small, almost mocking smile.
"Using my own specialty against me, how adorable."
