433: Original Master of the Tower
|
||
|
||
Just as the words left his mouth, the mist in front of him stirred unnaturally.
|
||
|
||
It coiled and condensed, not in the shapeless way it had done before, but with a strange grace—deliberate and focused.
|
||
|
||
From it emerged another warrior… but this one was different.
|
||
|
||
Unlike the previous mist warriors, who had all been vague humanoid shapes, undefined by race, age, or gender, this figure was clear.
|
||
|
||
He stood tall, clad in traditional flowing robes that fluttered faintly despite the stillness of the air.
|
||
|
||
His long white hair cascaded behind him like strands of snow, and his bearing was regal—composed like a swordsman who had seen countless lifetimes.
|
||
|
||
He looked… human.
|
||
|
||
Except for one thing—his eyes.
|
||
|
||
Or rather, the lack of them.
|
||
|
||
Where his eyes should have been, there was only shadow, an unknowable void that neither reflected light nor emotion.
|
||
|
||
Max’s fingers curled tighter around the hilt of his sword as he stared at the final opponent standing quietly before him.
|
||
|
||
His instincts flared like alarms in his blood, sharp and undeniable.
|
||
|
||
‘This guy smells like danger,’ he thought, eyes narrowing as his posture subtly shifted into a guarded stance.
|
||
|
||
The figure didn’t move, didn’t speak, didn’t even breathe, but Max could feel it—presence.
|
||
|
||
A kind of silent pressure that screamed of mastery and absolute calm, like a storm trapped beneath still waters.
|
||
|
||
The white-haired figure radiated something ancient, something too vast to be put into words.
|
||
|
||
“Is this one a human?” Max asked, his voice steady but curious as his gaze flicked toward the glowing red eyes of the tower spirit hiding in the mist.
|
||
|
||
“No,” the spirit replied, its tone deeper than before, as if the moment demanded a weightier truth.
|
||
|
||
“He isn’t a human.
|
||
|
||
He is the original master of the Tower of Truth.
|
||
|
||
He is a Primordial.”
|
||
|
||
Max blinked, caught off guard by the response.
|
||
|
||
“He’s… a Primordial?” The words left his lips almost in disbelief.
|
||
|
||
“The original master?”
|
||
|
||
His heart skipped a beat.
|
||
|
||
He had expected a final opponent, yes.
|
||
|
||
But not this.
|
||
|
||
Not the ancient being responsible for the creation of the entire tower.
|
||
|
||
Not a member of a race Max had no idea whatsoever, if they did exist in the world or not.
|
||
|
||
A Primordial—one of the strongest races to ever exist.
|
||
|
||
Something beyond comprehension.
|
||
|
||
But what stunned him just as much was the appearance of the figure itself.
|
||
|
||
“But… why does he look so much like a human?” Max asked again, his voice quieter now, almost like he was asking himself.
|
||
|
||
There was something deeply unsettling in the resemblance.
|
||
|
||
The traditional robes, the long white hair, the composed frame—it all mirrored the humans of old legend.
|
||
|
||
And yet, the sheer aura of the figure screamed of something far more vast and unknowable.
|
||
|
||
“There are many races that look just like humans,” the tower spirit answered, its voice now laced with the calm wisdom of something that had watched over millennia.
|
||
|
||
“You’ve already seen the elves.
|
||
|
||
Even the demons resemble humans—if you ignore their darker skin and hulking builds.
|
||
|
||
So it should not surprise you that the original master of the tower—though a Primordial—could resemble a human too.
|
||
|
||
Form is but one piece of identity.
|
||
|
||
It is not what defines race… or power.”
|
||
|
||
Max exhaled slowly, nodding as the truth settled in his chest.
|
||
|
||
This was no ordinary opponent.
|
||
|
||
No mere guardian or test.
|
||
|
||
He was about to face a shadow of the very being who once stood at the peak of this place—a Primordial who had forged the Tower of Truth.
|
||
|
||
“Come on then,” Max said, a flicker of excitement rising in his chest as he steadied his stance, eyes locked onto the figure before him.
|
||
|
||
There was something thrilling—almost surreal—about standing opposite a legend, the very creator of the Tower of Truth.
|
||
|
||
A being from an ancient race thought to be myth.
|
||
|
||
A Primordial.𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
|
||
|
||
The idea of testing himself against such a figure wasn’t just daunting—it was electrifying.
|
||
|
||
And then, without warning, the mist warrior moved.
|
||
|
||
He didn’t glide like the others.
|
||
|
||
He ran, thundering across the field in a blur of pure motion, his white robes fluttering behind him like trailing banners of mist.
|
||
|
||
But almost instantly, Max’s sharp gaze caught something strange—something that didn’t make sense.
|
||
|
||
“Huh?” he muttered under his breath, his eyes narrowing.
|
||
|
||
“He isn’t using any mana… not even infernal energy… not even soul force…” He frowned, but then his frown slowly twisted into a grin.
|
||
|
||
“Could he be planning to…?” he murmured, the realization dawning.
|
||
|
||
And just like that, he understood what was about to happen—and welcomed it.
|
||
|
||
With a deep breath, Max put away his sword.
|
||
|
||
He rolled his shoulders, stretched out his arms, and then charged forward with a wild grin etched on his face.
|
||
|
||
No mana.
|
||
|
||
No aura.
|
||
|
||
Just him.
|
||
|
||
As the distance between them vanished in seconds, the mist warrior raised a clenched fist without hesitation—raw, bare-knuckle power aimed straight for Max’s face.
|
||
|
||
But Max didn’t flinch.
|
||
|
||
He matched the motion, his own fist cocked back and filled with nothing but physical force, and with a roar of exhilaration, he drove it forward.
|
||
|
||
BOOM!
|
||
|
||
The collision rang out like a thunderclap, a deafening shockwave exploding from the impact as both fists collided mid-air with terrifying force.
|
||
|
||
A violent gust of wind burst outward, tearing through the surrounding grass and flattening the mist in every direction.
|
||
|
||
Both figures were blasted backward from the sheer force of the impact, their feet skidding violently across the vibrant green grass.
|
||
|
||
Max gritted his teeth, digging his heels into the ground to stop his momentum, a fiery thrill surging through his veins.
|
||
|
||
His knuckles throbbed, but his blood sang.
|
||
|
||
This wasn’t a duel of energy or aura—it was a battle of bodies.
|
||
|
||
Of strength, skill, and raw, unfiltered combat.
|
||
|
||
‘His physical body is comparable to mine!’ Max was shocked knowing that his body was super strong because of the Black Dragon Chaotic Bloodline and because of the Dragon Scales.
|
||
|
||
And yet he could only match the original owner of the tower.
|
||
|
||
This was unbelievable to Max and at the same time he felt that this much had to be expected from the legend who build the tower.
|
||
|
||
‘But that’s just his physical body…’ Max thought, eyes sharpening as his battle spirit flared.
|
||
|
||
‘How would he compare to my raw strength?’ With a deep breath and a focused will, he unlocked the force sleeping within him—activating the full might of his three hundred Draconic Essences.
|
||
|
||
RUMBLE!
|
||
|
||
The ground quaked beneath his feet as a monstrous pressure erupted from within his body, like the roar of a caged beast finally breaking free of its prison.
|
||
|
||
Power surged through every vein, every muscle, every bone in his body.
|
||
|
||
His skin tightened, bulging slightly with coursing veins as raw strength rippled through him like waves in a storm.
|
||
|
||
It was not magic.
|
||
|
||
Not mana.
|
||
|
||
Not aura.
|
||
|
||
This was pure, unfiltered physical power, forged from his unique essence—a force few in the world could comprehend, let alone withstand.
|
||
|
||
The instant the pressure was released, the mist warrior reacted.
|
||
|
||
His body blurred forward, his speed now matching the ferocity Max had just unleashed.
|
||
|
||
Seeing the movement, Max didn’t hesitate.
|
||
|
||
His figure vanished, the spot where he had stood exploding into dust as he blasted forward like a missile, propelled by strength alone.
|
||
|
||
The air around him screamed in protest, the force of his movement tearing through the mist and shattering the ground behind him.
|
||
|
||
And then—
