The World's most Overpowered Side-Character

"Huuuhhh!!" Lars sprung to his feet and held out his hands towards her. "HRAAHH!!" The General exclaimed, releasing dozens of those same attacks at her, but with ease Ikaris dodged them one after the other making countless speed mirages as she contimued movung faster until he had lost track of her completely within the chaos, forcing himself to stop. "Above Celestial!?" He roared in fear and rage.

"There is nothing above the Celestial realm, nothing is above me, I am the greatest, you are a freak of creation!" He held his hands hight when Ikaris's crimson eyes revealed her position within the falling dust and debris.

[Goddess Ikaris, your mana is out of control!] Alpha warned her again, but the goddess ignored the warning and pressed her hand against her forehead leaving a seal upon herself.

"Nothing scales beyond my power!" Lars's energy quadrupled in an instant and a great green phenomena appeared over his head, taking a spherical shape as it condensed and grew even larger, scaling to the size of the destroyed moon they had been fighting on since the second half of their encounter.

"You have the nerve to even utter such a sentence as the Eighth General, there are seven within the Emporium alone who you couldn't lay a finger on, aren't there?" Ikaris asked creating a small ball of mana in her hand and applying [flame] to it as it began rotating rapidly.

"I asked you earlier, and you did not provide a satisfactory answer so it has been eating at my mind this whole time; why would a Celestial work under the same people who want to see him dead? Now that I have fought you, the answer is an underwhelming one..." Ikaris watched the sanity in his eyes disappear once more as the mass above them grew larger yet.

"You are a delusional fool who thinks that the Emporium would spare you once their goal is completed-"

"Haaaaahh!" The man screamed angling himself towards her and lowering his hands as all the colours that composed their surroundings were displaced by the bright green of his attack and the glow of the small ball in Ikaris's grasp.

"Forced Sun," Ikaris calmly spoke the name of her attack after drowning out the system.

In an instant there was a great golden ball of burning mana rapidly expanding beyond the size of the one Lars had manifested.

Their attacks clashed, but with Ikaris's released power being fed by the collective within her, the [Forced Sun] which she had created rapidly overpowered and ate her opponent's attack swelling and swallowing him as well while she continued to push it in the opposite direction of the system they had been fighting in.

"That is amazing-"

"It is far from over," Dr'ul urged Hudor to shut up with her hand raised in a geature of silence, keeping her gaze focused on the mana particles being pushed together as Ikaris's attack continued to densen faster than it was growing, by the time it was outside of the system the sun which had dominated the area for aeons had started to become less spherical because of the massive gravitational pull Ikaris had created with the largest [Forced Sun] technique used since Sol had created it.

It continued to grow, deep in the depths of the void where nothing else could get harmed the mass of burning mana grew exponentially larger surpseeing the size of the system until it could swallow thousands of suns easily, the edges became so defined that they seemed alive as it warped and folded into itself, repeatedly contracting and then further expanding again, much like a heartbeat, and at one such pivotal point Ikaris had her hand rested against it seeking Lars's signature.

"Even with this much power," Ikaris looked at her arm and the golen crack that had appeared across her skin revealing the boiling mana beneath her fighting to come loose. "He still refuses to die."

She rested her other hand against the Supermassive burning star and closed her eyes. "Burn away, Lars of the Emporium," Ikaris seemed to pray while another crack opened up across her other arm, and then one more across her forehead.

"Be vanquished; you have done enough, you have suffered enough, you have killed far too much; so begone, cease to exist, little dog," Her eyes widened and a smile appeared across her face as several more smaller cracks conjoined with the large ones and an especially large one appeared in her back spewing mana into the void behind her. "Accept your fate and disappear with this..."

[Incalculable amounts of mana have been detected, your vessel will shatter unless you release this mass and retreat]

"I will keep going, I will force it to concede," Ikaris spoke, grinding her teeth when she finally sensed a new realm right before her, she seethed and pushed through the pain eating at her inside and out, she bore the weight of thousands of stars collapsing and the [Forced Sun] trying to absorb her as well with a weight of gravity that put the greatest of black holes to shame.

"You are my power, you are mine to control, mana, you will listen! You will yield! You will obey me!!"

Ikaris let out one final agonising scream hissing while her physical vessel shattered completely and her Atlan divine body manifested in its place, summoned so that her soul would not diminish.

[Primordial-Grade Mana Manipulation; Divine Denigration]

The great mass began to tremble, the gravity which it possessed began working against it, now with a new and far more durable body, Ikaris gave it one more push and the void around her collapsed on itself shrinking the great explosion to the sixe of a singular star which ate and turned everything within it to matter and mana, and then she gave that burning mass another squeeze and it vanished with a loud cosmic roar that blasted her backwards into the system she had tried her hardest to prevent from collapsing.

It sent ripples of energy far beyond the galaxies, crashing past the edges of every sector and shattering the walls of Klalla-Nova in every direction, it all happened instantaneously, her evolution was announcedd to every Celestial grade being and higher for dozens of collectives across the Grand in a great spherical globe, but then as soon as she had achieved this new power, it slipped from her grasp, she devolved into a Celestial once more and continued crashing towards the warped sun behind her.
