OBS Chapter 1450 Kill The Emperor
Chapter 1450 Kill The Emperor
~BOOOOOM!!!~
The ground beneath Neron cracked as he launched forward, propelled by the overwhelming force of Aether surging through his body.
The Emperor's golden aura met his attack head-on, and the resulting collision sent a shockwave through the chamber, shaking the very foundation of the palace.
~VWUUUUMMMM!!!~
"You're strong, Neron," the Emperor admitted as he deflected the strike with a shimmering golden shield that materialized in the air. "But you're blinded by rage. It clouds your judgment."
Neron scoffed, slamming his foot into the ground to steady himself.
"Judgment? You think I need clarity to kill a monster like you?"
Without waiting for a response, he stretched his hand toward the Emperor, summoning a massive spear of Aether that crackled with violent energy.
He hurled it at him with lethal precision, the air screaming as it cut through the space between them. The Emperor raised his hand, and a radiant golden barrier formed around him, absorbing the impact. The force of the collision sent chunks of stone flying, tearing the walls of the chamber apart.
The Emperor's golden eyes remained calm, but the cracks forming in his composure were evident.
"You have no idea what you're doing," he said, his voice still measured.
"I know exactly what I'm doing," Neron snarled, vanishing from his spot and reappearing behind the Emperor in an instant. His fist, cloaked in raw destructive Aether, drove toward the Emperor's back. The Emperor twisted at the last moment, catching the blow with his palm. The sheer force of their clash sent out another shockwave, and the chamber shuddered violently.
~BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!~
The Emperor gritted his teeth as golden light wrapped around his arm, reinforcing it.
"Do you even realize what your power is doing to you?" he asked, his voice strained as he pushed back against Neron.
"The more you use it like this, the more it consumes you."
"You're stalling," Neron growled, summoning a blade of Aether in his free hand.
He slashed upward, forcing the Emperor to leap back. The Emperor landed gracefully, his golden aura shimmering around him like a shield.
The Emperor managed to shield himself, but the strain was evident. His golden aura flickered, and he stumbled slightly.
"You're finished," Neron said, advancing on him.
The Emperor hesitated, his hand hovering over his chest. A faint glow emanated from beneath his robes, and Neron realized what he was about to do.
"You're going to use your Arcana," Neron said, his tone mocking. "Is that your last resort?"
The Emperor didn't respond, but the glow grew brighter.
Neron didn't give him the chance. Activating his Original Magic, he stopped time, the world around him freezing in place. He stepped forward, standing directly in front of the Emperor.
"Too late," he whispered, placing his hand on the Emperor's chest.
With a surge of Aether, Neron accelerated the Emperor's time. The Emperor's body began to wither and age, the golden light in his eyes dimming as he disintegrated into dust. His Arcana, a shimmering card marked [The Emperor], fell to the ground.
Neron picked it up, his expression cold and unfeeling.
As the flow of time resumed, Neron turned to see the Midas Guards surrounding him, their weapons drawn, their faces a mix of fear and determination.
"You're all going to follow your Emperor," he said, his voice devoid of mercy. "One by one."
The Empire would burn, and he would make sure of it.
