Ron's aura turned gray.
The unpleasant sensation of being consumed by dark power began, and his vision darkened.
The large body, which had been trained throughout his life without a single apostle, now exuded a dark and ominous aura.
The shapeless sword also lost its unique transparent color and began emitting a murky gray.
As a result, it lost its singularity of being invisible, but its power was so enormous that it didn't become a weakness in the first place.
Zipple's magicians could now realize how immense the pressure of the Shapeless Sword was once it took a visible form.
The sky and the ground were filled with the gray aura of the sword. Furthermore, as the Supreme Sword opened up, the power increased even more, and wherever they looked, it was filled with gray swords.
But now, Zipple's magicians were not afraid.
The power of the Demon God Orb that had opened up was strengthening not only Kelliark Zipple but also the other magicians and Zipple's fleet.
The dragons roared incessantly. It was because they lost their composure due to the energy of the Demon God Orb, but they didn't attack their allies.
They awaited orders like a well-trained fighting dog.
An order to bite the enemy.
Gaaaaa-!
Except for Kelliark, it was Belot who showed the most overwhelming presence.
With the energy of the Demon God Orb, Belot spewed black fire, and the heat was incomparably stronger, pushing away the nearby gray swords.
Hoo....
Ron slowly collected his breath and assumed the stance.
The pattern of the newly engraved Supreme Sword lightly covered his slim body.
His condition was far from perfect.
That's why the Supreme Sword couldn't last longer than the Sword Saints, but that didn't matter.
The fight probably wouldn't have been too long.
Suddenly, Ron Hairan felt there was something in common between the Demon God Orb and the "White Stone," which constantly screamed Kaak, kak and terrible sounds.
The White Stone, the greatest enemy of the Hairan patriarch.
An ominous stone, a wedge pointing to the end, and the previous Hairan patriarch referred to the White Stone by many names like that.
No one knew the true name of the stone, and no one had been able to cut it.
The meaning of the stone's existence, only transmitted from patriarch to patriarch, lay in "cutting."
Only when you reach the level where you can cut it can you stand out in Hairan's history.
And yet, there was no one in Hairan who had managed to cut the stone.
In the end, the stone plunged Hairan into a crisis, and it kept whispering the language of destruction while keeping Dante captive.
The Demon God Orb was the same.
The White Stone and the Demon God Orb.
If he didn't cut them, Hairan would disappear from the world starting today.
"Come, shameless monsters."
As Ron lifted Rashid, it seemed as if a gray mountain suddenly rose in front of Sword Emperor Castle.
The aura of the sword formed a barrier in the place of the collapsed and broken walls.
Black gleams emanated from Hroti again. That black power pierced through the layers of gray barriers without hesitation.
However, before Kelliark could confirm that the black gleam reached Ron, he had to face a sharp sword flying through a crack in the gray barrier.
However, the energy of the sword quickly dissipated before touching Kelliark's face.
Just like dust disappears before touching fire.
The power of the Demon God Orb was protecting Kelliark and the fleet.
In an instant, more than a hundred sword auras shot one after another, disappeared in the same way.
Kelliark slowly reached out to the image left by the disappeared sword aura.
He could only feel the faint warmth generated by the power of the Demon God Orb countering the sword aura.
He didn't act to defend himself seriously or to avoid it.
Although Kelliark only showed a slight will not to be hit, he completely blocked Ron's sword aura.
'...Cyron, have you always felt this way when you see those who oppose you?'
Kelliark thought as he swung Hroti again.
The gray swords that Ron shot were ruthlessly shattered every time he swung his Hroti.
The attacks of magicians, dragons, and fleets, which had been constantly blocked by the shapeless sword, were much more effective than before.
Ron hadn't dodged any of their attacks even once until the Demon God Orb opened up.
Before the attack approached him, he cut them with a formless sword wind or blocked them while staying in place.
But now...
Ron was sweating as he walked back and forth between the castle wall and the gray aura he had formed.
Ron didn't stop at this fact.
He simply held the sword in silence, observed the battle, and counterattacked whenever he had the chance.
With each passing second, scars grew on the engraved pattern of the Supreme Sword.
[Kwaaak!]
Like a tidal wave, Belot's black fire rushed toward the castle.
The gray barrier exploded, and 30% of the left side wall was completely destroyed, and Ron prevented Belot from entering through the gap.
As Belot charged, the space distorted, creating a shockwave and a roar.
Ron's Rashid, who turned to face it, hit Belot's head but didn't cut it.
It was as if the swords clashed and fought for their strength.
When the clash ended, Belot was the first to retreat, but it was Ron who was bleeding.
A handful of warm and hot blood rose up his throat.
"Kagh...!"
He spat blood, and before it could touch the ground, black fire and gleams covered Ron.
The fire pierced through his chest, and the gleams hit his shoulders.
Because of this, the fleet and dragons bombarded him as soon as it calmed down a bit.
It was the first time he suffered such a unilateral attack after earning the name of Sword Emperor.
The Demon God Orb continued to mock Ron.
Zipple's magicians, dragons, and Belot felt this way.
They were already intoxicated by victory and madness.
But Kelliark thought differently.
Does the Demon God Orb... feel uneasy?
Does it consider Ron still a threat?
Kelliark couldn't understand why.
The battle was truly overwhelming.
Although Ron still had some power left, Kelliark was only using a part of the Demon God Orb's power.
Even if he didn't understand it, he had no doubts. Currently, there were more than thirty gods dwelling in the Demon God Orb, and the total sum of their wills produced an absolute conclusion.
Kelliark's gaze landed on the ground.
He saw Jin and his group, who had just entered the castle to escape the aftermath of the battle, and Octavia and the Spectres chasing them.
Ron was unable to exert all his strength to prevent the impact from reaching there.
'Maybe it's because of the divine power of the shadow residing in Jin Runcandel.'
The Demon God Orb was superior to Andrei's, but it still wasn't in perfect condition.
Shadow.
The Demon God Orb could never be completed unless the power of Solderet was obtained.
Even if the power of all the Gods except him and the gods who had already died or disappeared was combined.
"Where are you looking, Kelliark!"
Ron's sword cut through the onslaught and arrived right in front of Kelliark.
Unlike before, this sword energy couldn't be casually dissipated with a simple will.
While swinging Hroti to erase the sword energy, he felt pain in his wrist.
It was surprising that he could feel pain despite assimilating into the Demon God Orb.
He thought that maybe the ancient race that disappeared after resisting the gods had also provoked the gods' anger in a similar way.
"Don't worry. For now, killing you is the priority."
Like a tumor, spheres of black fire began to form in the sky.
The five Decimating Flame Orbs Of The Dark Sky transformed by Kelliark and strengthened by the Demon God Orb were aimed at Ron.
In terms of sheer power, it surpassed the Second Version of Riol Zipple's Legacy.
Even when Ron saw that, he didn't retract the power used for ground defense.
Kelliark frowned as if he were displeased.
"Did my words sound like lies?"
Following Kelliark's staff, a black flame orb fell first on Sword Emperor Castle.
Belot continued pressing Ron to prevent him from avoiding the black flame orb.
But Ron had no intention of avoiding it in the first place.
Shh...!
Gray Rashid made a resonant sound, and the pattern of the Supreme Sword engraved on Ron's body became thicker.
Ron's gray eyes were steadfast as he looked at Belot and the black flame orb.
Emperor's Sword, the first decisive move to kill.
Rashid emitted a gray glow.
Huge energy enveloped the darkness scattered all around, enough to make even Belot, who was strengthened with the Demon God Orb, reflexively step back.
The ceaselessly emanating gray light from Emperor's Sword occupied its place, revealing the majesty of the Supreme, and at that moment, the expression of the Demon God Orb floating like an ominous moon wavered.
'This sword is like...'
Kelliark couldn't help but think of a sword he had faced some time ago.
The Supreme Sword was originally a sword modeled after Runcandel's sword, for the decisive battle against Runcandel.
That's why all Supreme Swords resemble Runcandel, but that doesn't mean they are mere clumsy imitations of unblessed bodies.
The Supreme Sword was made to defeat Runcandel.
Meteorite Destroyer.
It resembles the meteorite shower from Runcandel's Third Final Movement.
The sword Kelliark remembered was the Third Final Movement of Runcandel, directly used by Cyron, and the First Final Movement of the Supreme Sword.
It was a sword forged to surpass Runcandel's meteorite shower.
The air split in half along the direction of Rashid's trajectory.
The gray aura of the sword emerging from the gap took control of the space that the black flames had engulfed, and regained dominance.
Kaaaaaaaaa!
The voice of the Demon God Orb conveyed more anxiety and rage than before.
It seemed to say:
"Do you dare to think that humans can possess such power?".
Belot retreated and roared.
It was impossible to block the gray aura of the meteorite destroyer.
As soon as Belot dodged, Kelliark threw the remaining four flame orbs at once, but the speed didn't come out due to the repulsive power.
It wasn't much, but they dispersed even before reaching the wall.
The five flame orbs had already lost their power, and their form couldn't be called an orb.
"You just said a moment ago that you didn't know you would use the power of the Demon God Orb against me.... I say the same.."
"It's not just hidden power...... by any chance, are you getting stronger by facing me?"
Kelliark squinted his eyes with such conviction, and Ron, holding a handful of scattered black flames, closed his fist, extinguishing them.
"No matter how this fight ends today... You and I will lose a lot. And the real winner won't be you or me. It will be the new generation."
