Chapter 166 - 166-The Great Goblin Ruler
"W-What have you done!?" The Great Goblin Ruler stated in shock. Everything around him was burning. The molten hellscape created by the giant explosion from the meteor impact obliterated everything. The Fortress disappeared as if it didn't exist. What replaced it was a crater exuding black ash to the heavens.
The meteor wasn't enough to kill him, but it did injure him. He was currently standing on a wasteland built by his foolishness. He didn't expect the Occidental Guardian to be merciless. He gritted his teeth and turned his gaze towards the Girl atop the Heavens. He shouted towards her once again.
"What have you done!?!"
"Oi, oi, oi... Why are you blaming me, Little Goblin? Who was it that dared to invade my land? Why are you expecting mercy from the one you wanted to eliminate? Your foolishness seems to know no bounds." Persia ridiculed the Goblin Ruler. He was rather idiotic to expect mercy from her. Foolish as he was, Persia expected great things from him only to be disappointed.
"Y-You!!!" The Goblin Ruler couldn't counter Persia's words. It was his foolish choice that led to the destruction of his army. Though, he still couldn't believe that the Occidental Guardian would instantly attack the Fortress. What if they were innocents within the Fortress. Well, if Persia did hear his thoughts. He would probably get tortured for his insolence.
"What? If you're worried about the future of your species. Don't worry, all of you will have a reunion later." Persia smirked as the Goblin Ruler started biting his tongue. Tears started escaping his eyes as his power got stronger and stronger. It seems that the power-up was related to sadness or sorrow.
'Is this the Little Goblin's Origin Skill? I don't know the name of such a Skill, but for it to be fueled by sorrow. Such a worthless Origin Skill.' Persia shook her head in disappointment. An Origin Skill fueled by emotion was rather dangerous. Especially if such Emotions were related to Anger, Hatred, or Sorrow.
But to reach a conclusion of the Goblin Origin Skill being worthless. Persia would have to test it before concluding the worth of such an Origin Skill. With such thoughts within her mind, Persia smiled as she created a Sword using her Azathoth Creation. It was unfortunate for the Eternal Sword to be dismantled, but Persia would rather use something that doesn't contain the essence of anyone other than herself.
"You Bastard, I will destroy you." The Goblin Ruler said while crying. It was kind of creepy, but Persia had known that his current actions were related to his Origin Skill. Hearing the words of the crying Goblin Ruler, Persia smirked and replied with a ridiculing voice.
"Can you?"
As her words echoed, the Goblin Ruler disappeared from his spot. He reappeared right behind Persia and was about to punch her. But before his punch could reach her, Persia teleported towards the back of the Goblin Ruler. She then swung her Azathoth Sword towards the Goblin Ruler.
*BOOM!!!*
The swing of Persia created a shockwave, which replicated the thunderous sound found within explosions. The Goblin Ruler dodged the attack of Persia and retreated away from her. As Persia's sword passed through the air, the molten hellscape got split apart by her sword. A crevice found itself created by Persia's sword.
"Was that the only thing you could do, Little Goblin? Why did I expect more from you? That was rather disappointing." Persia continued ridiculing the Goblin Ruler. It was a good way to see the potential of the Goblin Origin Skill. Even though she wanted to finish the battle as fast as possible, she needed to check the Origin Skill of the Goblin Ruler before killing him.
"Y-You!!!" The Goblin Ruler shouted while crying. A Strange Light then enveloped his body. It began absorbing the rocks around him. It seems that the Goblin Ruler was about to transform into a Giant. Though, Persia gazing at the Goblin Ruler knew that it was bigger than a Giant.
"Intriguing, your size is approximately 2 kilometers in height. That's rather gargantuan." Persia uttered as she looked at the Goblin Ruler with interest. It seems that the Goblin Ruler lost control of his sorrow. He was turning into a Gigantic Monster with Six Legs. Along with Pincer-like Arms and Monsterous Tentacles, Persia couldn't help but release a sly smile.
"The stronger you are, the better. I can test a lot of my skills towards your puny body." Persia then began activating her skills. The First Skill she had activated was Disaster Manipulation. She began thinking of the disasters she could use and finally found the perfect ones for the situation.
"A Giant like you will probably need dozens of Disasters to effectively exterminate you. Why don't I start with a category 10 hurricane? Along with Ten Giant Tornadoes. Let's also include an Earthquake. Having a flood might also be good. And the last one should be a Volcano Eruption." Persia was putting all disasters she could think of, and she began summoning them all at once.
Clouds began gathering within the heavens. A Storm was forming along with tornadoes also performing their landing. For some reason, water started to gather, and the earth began shaking. Cracks began forming as an underground volcanic explosion happened below the Giant Monster. With the combination of such disasters, Persia couldn't help but marvel at such scenery.
"For the finishing touch, why don't we throw more meteors?" Persia uttered as meteors started falling down from the heavens. They pierced through the biggest storm that ever happened in the Realm of Piksyon. As the meteors impacted the flooded and shaking earth, lights began illuminating along with shockwaves.
*BOOM!!!* *BOOM!!!* *BOOM!!!* *BOOM!!!*
The Giant Monster created by the Goblin Ruler began crumbling down due to the power of all the disasters. It was rather fun throwing disasters towards her enemy. It was better than what she had expected. It wasn't hard, and it wasn't complicated. It was fairly simple and easy. She could also see the effects of the Disasters, unlike a typical Energy Ball explosion.
"That should be enough." The battle was easier than she had expected. Persia was disappointed at the power of the Goblin Origin Skill. But before she could continue with such a thought, A Gigantic Hand started heading towards her. Persia looked at the hand with interest and noticed that the Goblin Ruler was still alive.
If he died at such attacks, calling him a Great Ruler would have been spitting on the Great Ruler Title. Anyway, Persia didn't bother dodging as she didn't want to take the experiment further. It was best for her to destroy the Goblin Ruler before the other Great Rulers reinforce the Little Goblin.
"Alive and well, I guess you really are a Great Ruler," Persia said sarcastically. The Goblin Ruler didn't have any legs left. It seems that the Volcanic Eruption completely destroyed his legs. Though, he might be able to recover it. There might even be a Great Ruler within the Great Army of the Plains that has an Origin Skill related to healing.
"This isn't the end, Occidental Guardian. The Supreme Commanders will destroy you and the Occidental Region. The Great Army will conquer everything, and you can't do anything to stop it." The Effects of the Goblin Origin Skill seemed to be fading. The Goblin Ruler wasn't crying anymore. He managed to gain his sapience back but unfortunately, he was about to die.
"I appreciate the warning, Little Goblin. Are you finished talking?" Persia questioned as she wanted the Little Goblin to stop talking before dying. Seeing the aloof attitude of the Occidental Guardian, The Goblin Ruler couldn't help but get angry. "Your pride will be your end, Occidental Guardian!!!"
The Goblin Ruler started shouting towards Persia. Persia was prideful, and the Great War wasn't a problem for her. If she was alone, she would have charged towards her enemies and started devouring them. But that was if she was alone. Persia wasn't alone anymore. She had a family waiting for her.
Persia wanted to let her family grow. This Great War was a good chance for them to grow into something better and stronger. Gaining experience, wisdom, and knowledge would be the best rewards of the Great War. The Supreme Commanders or the Great Rulers of the Plains were simply a tool to achieve that.
"Maybe or maybe not, Unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to see that." Persia's golden eyes then began illuminating radiantly. She was about to activate a technique that would guarantee the death of something. It was a technique she had used against the World Administrator she recently fought.
Persia activated the Elemental Manipulation Skill. She used it to fold the space in front of her. After folding the space in front of her, Persia raised her Azathoth Sword towards heaven and started swinging it down at a fast speed. As the Azathoth Sword and the Space Fold touched each other, a strange sound echoed.
*TANG!!!*
After a while, the Azathoth Sword passed through the Space Fold. With that, everything in front of Persia got hit by a Sword in an instant, which correlates to Light Speed. A Bright Light then enveloped everything that got included in the Space Fold. Nothing was left behind, and the molten hellscape got included with it.
As the Radiant Light faded, what replaced it was something shocking.
Persia looked at the scene with a prideful expression. What she was looking at was a Gigantic Rift that seemed to have no bottom. It had a width of a thousand kilometers, and its length was unknown. Everything that Radiant Light touched seemed to disappear afterward.
"I should call this technique, Execution.. It deserves such a name."
