Established Pinnacle: The Enigma

Chapter 221 Year Of Dancing Dragons III: Ancient Might

Then as if he thought up of something, he hurriedly added, "Even a professional Swordsman, would pull up on their targets with their swords still in their sheaths.

"Only two kinds of people will pull up on their targets with a sword in their hands." He said with an innocent expression. All his words were deliberately planned beforehand.

The young man could smell the insult coming from a mile away, but he still asked. He was curious as to how Enigma viewed him this time around.

"Which are?"

"It's either that person is a madman, who has already killed another person, or a beast or something else before pulling up on their targets. They are also quite stu-- I mean, ignorant most of the time.

"And the second type are the fakes who believe that they are Swordsman but are nothing but a pile of rotten dung, trying to create a better view on themselves either than being called a 'piece of shit' or a 'shitty low-life'.

"With how things are, I believe sir to be the first kind right? There is no way you're a piece of shit trying to scam innocent lives, like mine... despite your appearance. There's no way, right?" He concluded there with a smile.

The entire area was left in silence as the unrefined young man looked at Enigma in silence. Regardless of what choice he made, he was being insulted here!!

It was just about choosing the one with the least insults and a way out. But still, there was an insult within both types. And Enigma made it worse by not giving him a choice to think about it.

If he thought about it, then he was indeed a piece of shit trying to scam others. Meaning that he would be trying to scam Enigma into thinking he was not.

But if he instantly agrees, that means he is putting a tab of 'insane person' on his life. 'Wait, why think it through? Everybody already calls me a fuckin' lunatic!!! Including my seniors and juniors.'

Without another thought, the unrefined young man grit his teeth and held his sword tightly. His bloodshot eyes stared grudgingly at Enigma. "You are just brat as of now, far from your prime, I'll teach you how to speak to your elders!!!"

With that, he lightly kicked the floor and shot forward towards Enigma at unpredictable speed, being faster than time itself!!!

Enigma, couldn't see anything and just found himself implanted onto a mountain after blinking once. His speed, though quite terrifying, was not as fast as the opponent.

After all, he was fighting a genuine fucking Ancient God by himself!!

'He's fast.' An ethereal voice told him from within his mind, and he also knew it. But, it was fine since he didn't feel any pain at all. And he also did not expect the same voice to say anything more.

His stomach had a golden glow, as if he had swallowed a light bulb. The glow became dimmer and dimmer until it was no more there at all.

This was [Adamant Coated Will]'s defensive capabilities. Every part affected will glow golden, thus making him Invulnerable to even Divine-level attacks.

As with his current Semi<Higher Existence> level, the peak would be considered beings capable of affecting the entire Chaos.

And if the effects were decreased because of his weakness, and Realm Suppression, he still had terrifying Defense of a whole Reality at this moment!!!

He lightly pushed himself out of the crater on the mountain and lightly landed. He looked up and his eyes met the baffled expression of the young man.

"Do we... perhaps have enmity between each other, from the past perhaps?" Enigma carefully asked. Not knowing his childhood memories made him doubt a lot of things.

But not knowing about the past, only made things worse for him. It was as if, even with [Cosmic Knowledge] and [Reality Awareness], he was still kept in the dark about everything.

"No. Do people need enmity to do their jobs?" The young man responded with a scoff, preparing to descend. Enigma sighed and pursued the question,

"Job?"

"Yes, we were paid to uhm... yeah, kill you. That's it. Anyway, enough chitchat, I'm going to kill you now." With that, he burst towards Enigma at a much faster speed compared to before, halting time itself.

But his sword slashed through nothing but air, as far up in the sky, Enigma looked up and bitterly smiled. His eyes seemed to be filled with sorrow as he thought out loud.

"Life really is beautiful, Fate unfathomable, Karma detestable, Death terrifying and Peace rare. Why... is it that you still try and taunt them? Even at your weakest." He finally looked down with a light smile.

"I said enough talking!!! I'm coming up now." Despite his words, he still told Enigma that he was attacking, which Enigma chuckled to.

"Well who am I to act all sagely? It's rare to meet someone who could entertain me, and act as a test of how powerful I truly am." Golden currents of lightning flashed around his body, every now and then, making him resemble a God of Thunder.

This was his Unique Skill [Divine Speedster], it reciprocated the connection John and Jim had with their source of speed, to fool it into giving him speed as well. But for him, it borrowed the Universal Rule of Speed (Motion).

Averagely, Enigma was faster than even Killer, in her Runic God Killer form. In fact, he was even faster than Goddess Abigail, if she did not use her Cosmos or her boosts.

Being Cosmic in terms of speed, covering said distance in mere seconds if he so wished. The distance of a single Cosmos. Octillions of Universes. Octillions of 100 Billion light years. A Nigh-Infinite amount of miles!!

But yet even then, the Ancient Goddess of Discord and Abomination alone, who was not a speed type God, could already travel at a speed which was billions of times faster than him, if she focused all her boosts on Speed.

Which was why she was able to play around with Killer even with the Monstrous power of a few Multiverses. And this was an Ancient Goddess, who focused on her whole Physique and not any single Stat at that point.

But after absorbing her, Enigma's speed had increased greatly. He could outrun even God Lords at least, even when suppressed, but this man... was far faster than the Goddess of Abomination, who was a genuine Ancient God as well.

'As expected of the second strongest amongst you guys.' Enigma commented bitterly, as even when he knew what the results would be, he still chose to move on. 'I told you, now be careful. He's bitter.'

According to her, even if she focused on her Speed alone, this man, would still be greatly faster than her, as even when he was a mere High God... he was beyond Reality in terms of Speed itself!!

'He's either a nigh-Cosmic God as well or a Speed-type Perfected High God right now. Definitely the former though.' Goddess Abigail spoke through his mind. 'He's even faster if he focused intently on speed alone.'

She added. Enigma was surprised. He knew he was in trouble, but not to such an extent.

But he still smiled. It was useless anyway. The Unique+ [Divine Speedster] could increase his speed by thousands of times, meaning that he could match this young man's speed.

...Probably.

The young man appeared besides Enigma instantly, as if he was always there to begin with, and sent his sword towards Enigma's neck. Enigma ignored the sword and threw a punch towards the young man in response.

A punch that tore through Space itself, with the force of entire Universes held within. He realized that, the young man was fast, yet not durable.

And indeed it was so.

With a click of his tongue, the young man stopped his sword midway and hurriedly pulled back. But Enigma did not let go and pursued with similar speed.

Surprised by the sudden attack, and Enigma's reckless battle style, the young man could only use his sword to defend against the punch.

BOOOOM!!!!

The point of contact shattered the sound barrier and released a sound akin to an exploding Universe, the young man being sent flying through multiple trees, like a shrapnel cutting through flesh.

Unstoppable Force pushed him back, acting upon him with the weight of an entire Multiverse upon him, all the way until he crossed through the next forest.

...!!!

And the moment he stopped himself, he didn't wait to catch his breathe and made a rotational slash backwards, using the previous momentum of the punch to increase the speed and velocity of his swing, and might.

BOOOOOOM!!!

The sword and fist clashed together, resulting in the young man being thrown away once again. Speed wise, they were the same, but Enigma was stronger in terms of might.
