Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

"Time for round 2."

Ezequiel did not hesitate to unleash all the power he had managed to regain during these few minutes as he prepared to face the new Venganza.

'He became more powerful after his evolution. Still, I should be able to face him if I push myself beyond my limits.' That thought crossed Ezequiel's mind when he saw the Depravita vanish from Dis' sky.

There was no fluctuation in space-time, his emotions, or karma, yet Venganza managed to teleport right in front of him!

Ezequiel's instincts kicked in and sent a punch bathed in black-white lightning forward.

Venganza only smiled as he saw that punch, and just as the attack was about to land, he vanished again.

"Good punch, although I think it missed its target."

A sense of absolute and utter shock appeared on Ezequiel's face as he heard a voice coming from behind him.

'My Omega Law, energy, and soul force twist the Space-Time Laws around me, so how can he teleport like that!?' Ezequiel was confused, but that did not delay his next attack. He twisted his body and fired a punch that carried all his power.

"¡BOOM!"

The punch managed to connect this time, but there was no happiness in Ezequiel.

Venganza's naked palm stopped that fist that carried all of the Supreme Neo-Demon's strength. To make things even worse, the Depravita of Revenge kept smiling, and he did not seem to exert himself at all.

Ezequiel's face showed anger, and he unleashed all the power left in his Sun of Freedom.

The Sun of Freedom extended from Ezequiel's body, engulfing the Depravita of Revenge, but instead of pain, the smile on his face only grew wider.

"Hahaha. That will no longer work against me. I have transcended my nature, and Will Force in its raw state no longer affects me." Venganza did not attempt to hide the happiness in his soul. He glanced at the Sun of Freedom for a moment before turning toward Ezequiel and raising his fist.

Ezequiel felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and before he knew it, Venganza's attack sent him flying away. The punch was so fast that he could not see it.

'What a shocking speed!' Before the Supreme Neo-Demon could even finish that thought, Venganza appeared next to him and fired another punch, sending him flying away.

Ezequiel's mind worked incredibly fast as he attempted to find a way out of this predicament. He was severely wounded and exhausted. Although he could use the Sun of Freedom to enhance his body, it was not a great offensive weapon.

And even if the Supreme Neo-Demon had the strength, there was still the problem regarding Venganza's unique teleportation abilities. He was pushing his perception to the limit but found nothing.

"You are wondering how I am doing this right. How can I teleport like this, as if I were everywhere at the same time?"

Venganza's voice surprised Ezequiel, and he could not hide the curiosity in his eyes. The Depravita of Revenge noticed it, and he just smiled as he carried on with his onslaught and began to talk.

"The short answer is that I am everywhere, especially in a place like Baator. I am in every corner of this place because I am revenge and wrath."

Ezequiel frowned as he was beaten up since that explanation only confused him more. He had already immersed himself with Concepts, yet he could not do anything like that.

Luckily, Venganza's explanation carried on. Of course, his attacks also did the same.

"Your True Will became a Concept gaining immense potential and unique traits, but that is it. My evolution was much more challenging than yours, not only due to the Universe Will's loath to my kind but also because my entire existence fused with the Concepts. I am this universe's wrath and revenge, and unlike the True Will Path of Power, unless someone can defeat me, no one else can take control of those two Concepts."

Venganza had just finished speaking when he launched a specially powerful ax kick on Ezequiel, sending this one crashing into the ground.

"¡BOOM!"

A blast occurred as Ezequiel's body generated a massive canyon on the land mass. Venganza did not chase and chose to remain in the sky, looking at the surroundings with a carefree smile.

However, the Depravita of Revenge could not relax for more than five seconds since Ezequiel flashed to the sky with a furious expression on his face.

Despite his rage, Ezequiel's body was surprisingly well. Venganza treated him like a punching bag for several minutes, yet there were almost no new wounds on his body.

It was precisely that lack of wounds that drew Ezequiel's rage.

"Why are you holding back!?" Not even defeat could draw more rage in Ezequiel's soul than the feeling of his enemy looking down on him.

Venganza responded to the Supreme Neo-Demon's rage with a serene smile.

"I don't hate or feel anger toward you. It is true I'm not too fond of your attitude, but that is no reason to harm you, much less kill you. Clearly, I am stronger than you, so I don't see a reason to continue fighting." Venganza raised his hand, stopping Ezequiel from interrupting him, before carrying on.

"Do not misconstruct my words. You are powerful and possess a monstrous destiny. However, I have transcended and evolved, so you will not have a chance against me until you rise to Rank 9 and your Omega Law obtains the power to fight against Concepts."

The Depravita of Revenge words carried no emotions. He was not being cold, just stating facts.

Ezequiel's rage diminished after hearing those words. Still, his eyes soon glowed with silver light as battle intent emerged from his soul.

"I will not give up. If you want to be declared the victor, you will have to beat me until I can no longer stand up!"

Venganza looked at the Supreme Neo-Demon with confusion. "Aren't you a little childish for a True Godking?"

"Hahahaha. Maybe I am. But this is what I want to do, and I will follow my soul's desire." Ezequiel laughed as the power of his Sun of Freedom grew stronger.

Venganza only sighed before shrugging his shoulders. Since the other party wanted to keep fighting, he would do it. The Eye of Wrath on his forehead glowed as his aura reached a level that made all Dis tremble.

"I guess I will have to beat you to a pulp then."

Ezequiel and Venganza flashed toward the other, ready to unleash a last blast of attacks. However, just as their fists were about to clash, someone appeared between the duo.

The man showed an incredible level of martial skill as he grabbed the wrist of both the Supreme Neo-Demon and the Depravita of Revenge before pushing them into different directions.

Venganza regained control of his body immediately, and a meaningful light appeared in his eyes as he stared at the one that interrupted the fight.

"So you are back. I was unsure what would happen and thought for a moment you had vanished. If I am honest, that would have been easier for me, but this is more interesting."

Everything happened very fast, and Ezequiel did not see the person that interrupted the battle. As he turned around and stared at the newcomer, his body trembled.

The man looked at Ezequiel with a smile that seemed capable of bringing light to the entire universe.

"You have grown stronger, Little Ez."

When Ezequiel heard his childhood nickname and saw those eyes, he knew that was no incarnation but the real one.

"Master!"

That word sent shock waves through the entire Prima Universe.

Zatiel Daybreak returned!
