Lord Shadow

Chapter 1660: Comparing with the Heavens



BOOM!

The physique that Azief have improved once more

"Hoh!" he thought to himself as he look around him

The space around his body cracked and exploded into rifts of voids.

The pressure of his body bends the gravitational force around him causing the space rocks to be bended out of reality

The space around him feels like it is bending even more, like a space that could be seen near the black hole.

Distortion and curvature of space around Azie body seems to be brought down.

Only a truly enormous amounts of mass energy could produce such change of curvature toward space.

More and more thunder struck. Even though the beast had stopped appearing from the sky, the thunder keep falling.

But the thunder bolts did not stop. Azief embraces it like he is meeting an old friend. His body is nourished but his energy also grows.

"What about this feel like punishment? It feels more like a blessing" Azief thought to himself.

He could only say these words because he already stacked his body with so much advantage that even the Will of the Universe punishment seems nothing to him

It's not that the divine punishments is weak. It is that Azief had become too strong for even the Will of the Universe to pose a threat towards him.

And maybe the Will of the Universe also sense this

The feeling of being underestimated and look down upon. That gigantic face that is in the sky shows its displeasure.

The frown on its nondescript face become even more noticeable.

At least, its look like that to Azief, the closest being to that face. Hikigaya and Jean who is watching this from afar notice nothing, as their concentration is focused on the lightning bolts and the laws that is used by the tribulation clouds.

They have their own gains.

It is the same for the people below the sky, the people on Earth that managed to see some parts of the battle

They could not see it clearly but they could feel it. And just feeling it, gives something for them to ponder upon.

And what about Oreki and Raymond?

On one side of the world is Oreki meditating in the clouds.

Every once in a while, the wisp of the aura of the tribulation thunderbolts would descend toward Earth.

Oreki could tell this is Hikigaya doing.

Because the concentration of the destructive aur is just right. Just enough to oppress him but not kill him

Just enough for him to merge the destructive aura into his thunder and lightning

Azief is breaking though near Mars

And on Earth there is two people also attempting to break through to Divine Comprehension realm

Oreki is at his crucial moment to breakthrough right now

The sea is purple in colors because the sky is purple and reddish. A gigantic mirage of a face could be seen in all corners of the sky.

The sight is terrifying like it comes out from some kind of doomsday drama. Around Oreki, it was like the space itself is being torn apart one segment at a time.

Only void darkness could be seen.

Before that void is also torn apart the next second by the energy. The clouds came, pushed by a violent gust of wind, tempest appears and the air cracked with energy, as dark brooding clouds assembled.

Overhead, the clouds seems to have a life of its own. These clouds gathers, the powers of Heavenly Will gathers. Above, Death Monarch is fighting the Will of the Universe.

But on Earth, Oreki is fighting the Heavenly Will of Earth.

Oreki is ready to breakthrough. The clouds bellies is pregnant with the fury of the elements.

BOOOM!

Distant rumbles of thunder served as herald of a punishment tribulations. A divine storm that would paint the heaven and earth with its own chaotic masterpiece.

Oreki waited.

A second passes before the first droplets of rains began to fall.

Tik!

Tok!

Tik!

Tok!

To him, it sounded like the sound of the pointer of a clock. Lightning and thunder, these are

his methods. And this is his path.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The most suitable path for him.

The strongest path he has. And he smiles.

He clench his fist, and thunder roars with a simple movement

Just a simple movement of clenching his fist, and the air expands around his hands.

The rapid expansion creates shock waves and sonic shock, creating sound of thunder, rumbling through the skies, the seas, the mountains and hills, drowning the songs of the worlds, and for a moment causes the mirage of that gigantic face to waver a little.

The air is now charged with an otherworldly energy.

But Oreki recognizes this energy.

And he laughed

"let's do it!" All those who wanted to breakthrough always laughs or smile. Maybe, because

they are crazy, the whole lot of them

Always pursuing that peak of strength

Always betting their lives on the line.

Even confidence should have a limit.

But maybe because they are crazy like that, they could move froward with the kind of

mentality that shook heaven and earth.

That invincible mentality that they could compete with anyone!

Maybe only with that kind of mentality they could become a figure that changes the world!

He is a lone figure cloaked in lighting, and just like Azief did in his fight against the Will of the Universe, Oreki stood there on the air, looking at the clouds above his head, at the heavens, his gaze is defiant.

The brewing tempest, the roaring of thunder, the flashing of lightning does nothing to

dissuade him

Today is the fated day.

Today is his fated chance.

Today.... he must break through!

The rain, like liquid silver, cascaded around him, each droplet refracting the ethereal glow that emanated from their form.

Each droplet is heavy. Each droplet posses corrosive power. Destructive, dangerous and lethal.

With each lightning flash, Oreki was momentarily outlined in an eerie radiance, casting long shadows that danced and swirled around them.

The thunder, a booming symphony of nature's wrath, reverberated through the atmosphere, punctuating the storm's crescendo.

Yet, despite the tumultuous chaos overhead, Oreki stood untouched, surrounded by an invisible shield that repelled the storm's fury.

He too has his own tricks. He too has his own lighting. Azief prove his strength by using the laws and his already powerful might physique to compete with the Heavens

Oreki method is different

He uses the method of lightning.

Which of their lightning is stronger?

Which one holds more laws?

Which one is hotter?

Which one is more dangerous?

More lethal?

More purifying? This is the tribulation of Oreki, the Thunder Monarch, the Lightning King, the Spear of

Heaven!

His way of transcending the tribulation is comparing with the Heavens!

Is your lightning more powerful that mine? Is your thunder more dangerous than mine? Compare it with me! And if I won, acknowledge it!

Oreki hair billowed around him catching the occasional glint of lightning, as if the storm itself recognized a kindred spirit in the midst of its own creation.

In the midst of the deluge, Oreki raised his arms, as if beckoning the storm to unleash its

might. Thunder rolled, lightning crackled, and rain poured in torrents, yet Oreki beneath this

celestial assault remained unscathed.

The storm, instead of a menace, seemed to be a companion, swirling and dancing in response

to the mysterious force that resonated with the very essence of the tempest.

And as quickly as it had come, the storm began to wane, the clouds parting to reveal a sky that

bore witness to the celestial communion.

"One lightning has been proven. Nine more!" The clouds parts for a moment and then

converge again.

Oreki is about to breakthrough and he brought all the sky thunder to compete with him! What

a glorious battle!

What a heart shaking scene!

And what ambitious person, he is! The Lightning King, the Thunder Monarch, the Heavenly

Spear of Japan

Oreki!

On another side of the world, there is Raymond, clad in armour, formed by the force of the

Earth.

He is facing the sky, his eyes determined.

"It's now or never" he thought to himself

There is a trident in his hand and he is gripping that trident tightly.

Below him is the sea, deep, dark and unfathomable.

The sea is in turmoil, the waves are high, the winds are screeching, the water is charged with

energy and evaporates above, misty wisp of gas making the area seems full of mist

the sky is in chaos, there is no clouds, only the sight of the night sky revealed above.

Raymond smiles at this.

He chuckles and he laughs.

His gaze become sharper; his grips become tighter.

He is facing the heaven above, the clouds above his head crackled with energy

He smiles, the essence of the Earth, the energy of the Earth rises up deep from within, from

the west to the east, from the north to the south, from below and above, from right and left, from every direction there is, the energy of the Earth surges towards him

In this moment, Raymond could feel everything that is on Earth.
