Chapter 1912 1912. Laughs
'Come on!' Noah cursed in his mind as his eyes went toward the sky past the storms. 'What's the point of doing this over and over?'
The results obtained after many attacks that featured the peak of his battle style vanished in mere seconds. A simple ray of white light had been enough to fix the avatar and bring it back to its top condition.
The creature launched its wave of gales from the edges of its range. Those attacks could maintain their power until they reached Noah now since the giant's internal structure was whole again, but he didn't dare to use his blades to stop them again.
A crack opened next to the gales when they crossed the afterimage that Noah had left behind after performing his movement technique. The giant saw the dark world expanding again before a deep hole appeared on its chest.
Noah had launched a piercing attack after reappearing in front of the avatar. The hole created by his thrust was narrow, but it reached deep into the internal structure that regulated the storms contained inside the brown alloy.
The narrow hole pierced many tunnels inside the giant and created a new passage where the winds could leak. Yet, the gale that came out of the new opening ended up being far stronger than the previous attacks. The fissure was thinner than the normal cavities that the avatar created, so the winds that came out of it benefited from a more intense flow.
That gale didn't have the dense properties that the avatar could apply to its attacks, but it was so fast that it managed to hit Noah. A hole appeared in his shoulder as he completed the preparations for his movement technique, but he didn't let that injury interrupt him. His mind had alerted him about its arrival. His body couldn't move as fast as his thoughts, making dodging it impossible, but it allowed him to maintain his concentration.
Noah vanished and reappeared behind the avatar as a crack that led to the void appeared on his path. The dark world expanded, and another thrust came out of his blades. The quick gale arrived and pierced the side of his waist, but he didn't slow his offensive at all.
That was simply a test that Noah needed to check which abilities would bring him near his victory faster. His previous approach seemed to be more effective, but he didn't mind launching two more thrusts to be sure of that. He didn't even care about Heaven and Earth since he had already developed a plan for the next descent of the light.
The four narrow holes on the giant's body never stopped releasing intense winds capable of piercing Noah's innate defenses, but the creature's attacks managed to retain the same power. Noah resumed his previous approach at that point, and a series of deep cuts opened on the brown alloy after a few exchanges.
The avatar was powerless against that speed. Noah's technique appeared as the final movement method. He only needed to activate it from a neutral position to be unstoppable.
Still, the weaknesses of the movement technique became evident once the cracks connected to the void surrounded the giant. Noah had to retreat again at that point, and the avatar could use the intact patch of sky among those black openings to launch attacks after him.
Noah had to rely on his swords to fend off a few waves of attacks, and the condition of his body inevitably worsened. The storms in the area continued to provide nutrients that stabilized his most severe injuries, but their energy couldn't fix him completely.
The drawbacks of the cursed sword continued to hurt his body even when the giant didn't manage to hit him. The injuries caused by the weapon were superficial at best, but they created problems since his condition was already pretty bad.
The black hole played a crucial role in keeping everything in its place. Noah could continue to rely on his superior resilience even if most of his muscles and organs had only a thin layer of dark matter covering them.
Heaven and Earth waited until the storms blew around the giant and closed the cracks connected to the void to send their light again. Noah was ready for that, and a black shadow came out of his body before a long fissure shattered the area between him and the descending white ray.
Thick black lines spread through the ray of light when Night appeared on its trajectory. Noah had to create a tunnel for his companion to make it reach the descending whiteness on time, and but it immediately spread his destruction after it arrived.
The Pterodactyl's innate hatred toward the light and Noah's understanding of that energy fused to spread destruction meant for the blinding ray. Almost a quarter of that descending fuel turned black as lines spread on its structure. Night didn't hesitate to fuse with the world and shoot upward while releasing cries that resembled a crazy laugh.
Everything had happened too quickly for the avatar to understand the nature of Noah's plan. The light descending to restore its structure shattered into a rain of white particles that tried to disperse into the world. However, a second fissure spread through the sky, and Noah's consciousness unfolded in the area.
The storms disappeared in an instant, but his mental waves didn't stop there. Part of the energy meant to heal the avatar fell in the fissure created by Night, but the rest fell prey to Noah's consciousness and transformed into nutrients for his body.
Noah's condition had been terrible, but his body healed in an instant after receiving the energy meant for a middle tier puppet. He even felt a surplus of fuel that his flesh didn't hesitate to absorb to increase its power.
'This is the right feeling!' Noah shouted in his mind as a roar escaped his mouth.
His body had already classified rank 9 materials in the lower tier as ordinary food. Noah had to go further to obtain something that could satisfy his current hunger, and the energy contained in the light seemed to meet those requirements.
Black flames gathered in his mouth and shot through the sky as he raised his head toward the sky. His roar expressed his ecstasy and conveyed his feeling to Heaven and Earth. If the rulers continued to heal their punishments, Noah would simply take that energy for himself.
His chilling gaze then turned toward the brown avatar as Night materialized next to him. Noah couldn't contain his hunger now that he had confirmed how effective middle tier materials were for his body. He had finally found a prey worthy of his time, and his various plans about Heaven and Earth vanished from his mind.
Noah didn't care about hurting the rulers anymore now. He only wanted that brown alloy for himself. Of course, he wouldn't refuse more energy from Heaven and Earth if they decided to send it.
Night returned inside Noah's separate space as a large crack that connected his position to the avatar's head opened in the sky. The giant had grown used to that battle style by then, but it couldn't do anything to stop it. Even launching attacks in every direction and in advance couldn't work against him since he could move forward or opt for a weaker technique.
Moreover, Night had countered the only flaw that Heaven and Earth had managed to find in his battle style, and its laughs resounded through the sky even after it returned inside the separate space. The Pterodactyl continued to express its happiness as it inspected the battle with great attention. It couldn't wait for its chance to destroy Heaven and Earth's whiteness again.
