Titan Rising Online: World Breaker

Chapter 314 315: Despondent In The Face Of Power

?

The moment Deraka stepped out into the water there was an explosion of power, a pressure so powerful that the merfolk closest to him directly burst, their bloody bits painting the ocean red. Those of them that were far enough away, and could see the pup all started screaming.

At first Cole could see, but after the mass self explosion of the merfolk, even with his superior eyesight, Cole was not ab;e to see through haze of carnage. But perhaps that was for the best, because even if he couldn't see, he could hear the screams, and they were jarring and nerve wracking.

Cole wondered if this what what it felt like to bystanders whenever he was fighting. At the same time he has never felt so helpless, Deraka's power was a hint into the  mountains and seas he would have to cross just to be able to summon and use a power like that. It wasn't too long after that realization that the Pup reappeared besides Cole, showing that it never needed to be let out in the first place.

"As you are right now, you are too weak. Your body is barely sufficient enough to serve as a conduit for my power, and above all else boy, you don't have the energy required to keep on this plane of existence for too long, even if you did, you would probably destroy all of reality as we k ow it and force other gods out in order to put a stop to the both of us.

we will let this one slide, but the next time you summon to handle a pack of weaklings like this, we will flay you a thousand and one times for my amusement then we will punish you. And believe me it will be something you will never forget for ages to come. Now by your leave, We will return home, until we see you again, Demon Cole."

And then he was gone, as if he was never there in the first place. But Cole made up his mind at that moment, nothing short of death or perhaps the absolute destruction of everything he holds dare and love would make him summon Deraka. And that conviction would be doubly cemented for when he reaches a higher level, the stronger he was, the more of his power Deraka would be able to assert on the universe whenever Cole summoned him.

A God was no trifle matter at all, and Cole wanted to desperately avoid anything that would leave him with nightmares and sweating like a Christmas goat. There was a commanders chair that Cole fell into, feeling very exhausted as his gaze went out to the bloodied sea, looking to see if any other merfolk were still alive…..there were none. And with that out of the way it mean they had to now take the fight to the Mer-king.

"Ravena, let's go bag us a fish man." Cole said as the ship or rather submarine started moving. She did not respond to Cole though, but Cole couldn't Blame her, whatever Deraka had done she had been a witness to it, even he was shook by the creature he has now bound himself to, he was sure it was the same for her.

Never the less going to look for the Mer-King was not too much of a problem, it was not too long from then that the creature found them. A powerful psychic blast was released across the entire ocean, with enough power to give even Cole  a splitting headache. But compared to what he has just expedience, Cole was not shaken, wordlessly he used [Shadow Dance] to appear within the sea.

[Gravity created a bubbled around him, but it was kept close to his body so that movement would not be too much of a problem for him. He was a little surprised though, all of the media had definitely not prepared him for the fact that the Mer-king would be a man with a shark mouth, a colorful fish tail, an ugly bronze trident, four eyes, and perhaps the biggest surprise…. he was twenty feet tall or perhaps long.

"Where is my daughter invader? Speak swiftly and perhaps I will grant you a quick death." the Mer-king spoke using telepathy, but ultimately Cole did not give a shit. The Mer-King was blasting out his aura, and it was powerful enough to have given Pre Deraka Cole pause, but after seeing the might and power of the monster he dragged out from the soul realm, the Mer-king just seemed like a child posturing at being an adult.

Cole did not even bother to answer as he shot forwards, his body blasting through the ocean as he rushed at the giant of a mermaid or was it merman, Black Malakai held tightly in his hand. He crossed the distance only to get swatted by the Mer-king swinging his trident, but that was small as Cole used [Gravity] to shield himself while his form went through the water.

The Mer-King followed his trident blasting out pressurized air that hit like a mountain. Cole was unable to dodge the first as his chest was blasted apart and his insides were exposed. He gritted his teeth, the pain serving as a wake up call for him. Why the hell was he feeling so despondent, why was he acting so broken.

Deraka might be whatever the fuck he was, but that did not mean it was okay For Cole to feel small about himself, so far he has clawed. Bled and fought his way to his current state of power, some God of Chaos and the Void was not allowed to fuck with Cole's own mindset. So what if he was a god? Cole has slain a demi god before, granted of course it was by accident.

But if he could do that barely into the silver rank, then what could he do once he grows to a higher state of power. He would not be cowed by insurmountable power when he knew that every mountain in front of him could be scaled. Why should he be afraid and his mind in a mess so that big fish with almost no combat acumen and power it had no control over could toss him around.

That was not the way he roles, people feared him for a reason, every floor he has found himself on, Cole has dominated. He has shown a level of power that made even the strongest of the strong cower and acknowledge his existence and superiority. This floor would not be any different.

And Deraka was his familiar, it was his power that would allow that eldritch being a chance to exist in any plane of existence Cole feels the need to summon the damn dog in. He was the master, and if the damn thing was just so powerful Cole had to be the familiar, then he will get strong enough to overturn that status. Cole has always been a dog person, now he would make it a personal quest to own the ultimate Canine, the dog of all dogs, the wolf of all wolves.

[Shockwave]

This time Cole did not hold back when he used this skill, letting the full power of the skill display itself as he released a powerful shock wave, strong enough to create its own ocean current. The very molecules in the ocean seemed to vibrate as the  skill smashed into the Mer-king.

He screamed, as the vibrations tore into his scales and flesh, ripping them and turning them to mush before the Mer-King raised his trident to create a vacuum around himself canceling out the effect of the shock wave skill. He raised his head up to look for Cole, but Cole had vanished, the only thing that could be seen was the dragon ship that listlessly staring at the Mer-King.

Then suddenly Cole was there, right behind the Mer-King as he stabbed black Malakai straight into his waist, right at the spot where the fish half met the man half. [Assassinate] [Black Cut] and  a hefty dose of Chaos energy attached to it. The Mer-King let out a massive screech of pain, but that was just the beginning of the end for this creature, it had made the terrible mistake of underestimating Cole, and now it would pay for it.

[Sin Eater] [Sin Reaper]

The screams of the Mer-King were palpable and extremely powerful, enough  that it created reverberations across the entire. Streaks of golden and  blue light  began to waft off his body as Cole drained the Mer-King. The light show was probably because this was a gold rank being and the deluge of energy Cole was absorbing was much, so much more than he expected…..what rank was this damn thing again.

But Cole did not care as he kept on with the absorption until all that was left a massive dried husk of a corpse, everything that made it vital and alive taken into Cole.
