Chapter 1356 The End Of A Tyrannical Reign

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter
------------
General Quasp instantly got sent flying and tumbled multiple times in mid-air before slamming into the wall of the crater.
The glow on the axe dimmed the moment General Quasp stopped making contact with it.
"Hmm… does the axe blade get dull if it isn't in the hand of its owner?" Gustav questioned but he already knew the answer to this.
"You will never be able to use it to cut anything down, you bastard!" General Quasp yelled from the other end as he jumped to his feet.
"I see... I have always wondered how it would feel to wield a dull axe. Let's see how sharp I can cut with this," Gustav voiced with a smirk.
"You can't…" Before General Quasp could complete his statement, Gustav's figure suddenly appeared before him.
Thwiiisshhh~
A burst of wind spread in every direction, distracting General Quasp from noticing a part of his body flying across the air.
"Oh look at that… I was aiming to slice you in two. This blade is truly blunt."
General Quasp's eyes widened the moment Gustav uttered these words. His eyes darted around, searching his body and then he finally noticed.
"My hand! Arrrgghhh!" He cried in horror as he noticed that everything below his left elbow had gone missing.
He couldn't comprehend how Gustav managed to not just slice through his arm but his entire hand in one go with a blunt axe. Not to mention how sturdy his skin was which would not get penetrated with a sharp blade.
"Impossible…" It was like piercing a person with wood.
"I wonder how sharp it would be if it was in the hand of its owner…" Gustav voiced while reaching out.
Fwwhhiii~
The cleaved-off hand floated off the ground and landed in his grasp.
[Genetic Assimilation Complete]
Gustav's arm transformed into a replica of General Quasp's within seconds.
He dropped the cleaved-off hand and placed the axe in his hand which had adopted the look of General Quasp's arm.
Thhhiinnnnhhghh!
The axe immediately lit up with a blue glow causing a sinister smile to appear on Gustav's face.
"Would you look at that," He muttered with a tone of interest.
All this time, General Quasp watched with a look of horror. His mouth was still wide open as he couldn't find the words to say.
"Now… let's see how sharp this blade truly is," Gustav said before swinging the glowing axe diagonally.
"Nu…"
A blinding blue light engulfed the vicinity as a very sharp arc shot forward.
Twwhhiiiihh~ Twwhhiiiihh~ Twwhhiiiihh~ Twwhhiiiihh~ Twwhhiiiihh~
The arc split into twos and from twos to fours. It kept replicating.
In less than three seconds, a million blue arcs had slashed forward, ripping everything in its path to pieces.
Every piece of matter up ahead came crumbling down like dust, mixing with the pieces of the flesh, bones, and armor of General Quasp.
The crater that had been formed in the ground increased by over tenfold as structures and mountains thousands of feet up ahead became collateral damage as well.
While it looked like it had taken a lot of time for the slices to replicate, in actuality, it had taken only a moment.
Amongst all the ruckus, General Quasp's head was the only thing that had survived the onslaught.
This was because he had dashed forward at the last millisecond in a bid to save himself, unfortunately, only his head got out of the slice range.
Gustav had caught the head which flew across the air after General Quasp's body got obliterated.
"Thanks for the trophy," Gustav muttered before snapping his fingers.
Pah!
The head vanished in the next moment and he turned around to head for Sersi who was half dead.
A smile appeared on her face the moment she spotted Gustav in her line of vision.
"Thank you, Daddy," She voiced out.
"Did you know I was watching the whole time?" Gustav inquired.
She shook her head weakly, "No."
"Then, why did you refuse to tell him anything?" Gustav asked.
"Because it would be a betrayal to father. I would rather die than betray father," Sersi said with a tone of conviction.
Gustav was taken aback by her response because he read Sersi and discovered she was telling the truth.
'We've only known each other for less than two weeks… where did such a feeling come from?' He wondered but now wasn't the time to ruminate on her words.
Gustav squatted before her and placed a healing pill in her mouth.
….
….
….
"How did he…? Quasp would never go down so easily," Emperor Dhios furrowed his brows as he peered forward.
"He would have been a strong opponent if I hadn't taken him by surprise," Gustav replied while raising General Quasp's head.
'Damn it! This is a difficult situation!' General Borl swore internally.
"Say… would you two be able to handle an attack from this?" Gustav questioned as a massive six-foot-long axe appeared in his grasp.
"What?"
"He has Quasp World Splitting Axe?"
General Borl and Emperor Dhios voiced simultaneously and in the next moment, their faces were filled with even more disbelief as Gustav's right arm transformed into a replica of General's Quasp hand.
The world-splitting axe emitted a bright blue glow as Gustav raised it
Fwwommshhh~
Wind began to gather immensely around the vicinity causing both opponents to shrink back in fear. They knew how powerful and heavy the world-splitting axe was. A weapon as large as Gustav's entire body yet raised with ease like a piece of paper.
"Get him before he swings!" Emperor Dhios shouted before dashing forward.
Thwwwoosshhh~
They both streaked forward, appearing before Gustav instantly.
General Borl grabbed the axe handle while a large scarlet glowing sword materialized in Emperor Dhios's grasp.
Swwiiiihhhh~
He swung sideways powerfully.
Gustav's figure vanished, causing the blade to slice through thin air. The axe was left in General Borl's grasp who found it difficult to lift on his own.
Gustav reappeared behind Emperor Dhios and sent a fist hurling at his spine.
Emperor Dhios managed to react in time, raising the side of his sword to block the fist at the last moment.
[Power Boost Has Been Activated]
Boom!
The moment Gustav's fist collided with the sword, a loud thunderclap-like sound reverberated across the vicinity.
Twwwhwhhiii~
Emperor Dhios got pushed back by the unfathomable force of Gustav's punch and slammed into General Borl, causing both of them to get sent flying.
He grabbed hold of the world-splitting axe which got blasted out of General Borl's grasp the moment both of them collided.
The axe lit up once more and he proceeded to swing downwards powerfully.
Slash!
A massive blue arc instantly ripped downwards, gathering so much energy, that space twisted in its wake.
The slash multiplied immediately, turning to millions of glowing blue lines descending from the sky like a divine punishment from the great heavens.
"Emperor!" General Borl yelled as he put himself before Emperor Dhios before the slashes hit.
Dhhhhiiiinnnnnn!
"Arrghhhh!" He roared while thrusting his palm forward and shot out a powerful red beam at the descending powerful blue lines.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of explosions and powerful collisions rang out for the next couple of seconds, synching with the scream of a living being in turmoil.
Gustav stood in mid-air, waiting for the smoke and debris to clear as the collision of attacks had reduced the vicinity to shambles.
"Still alive… good," Gustav muttered while snapping his finger.
Pah!
The axe in his grasp vanished as he descended from the sky.
Fwwhhhiiii~
In his line of sight was a crater that was thousands of feet deep and hundreds of miles wide.
Gustav landed before a figure who had a bloodied slab of meats splattered across his body. He knelt in place with a visible look of horror.
"I used a lesser amount of strength this time to reduce destruction so you would be spared," Gustav said to Emperor Dhios who was stained with blood from the pieces of General Borl's body parts.
'That was not his full strength? Even Quasp would not be able to use the world splitter to cause this much destruction…' Emperor Dhios's will to battle was shattered completely at this point.
'MONSTER...' This word rang in his mind continuously as he recalled that Gustav was just a twenty-one-year-old.
"Why… would you spare my life?" Emperor Dhios asked.
"Don't give me that look like I am showing mercy. I am not," Gustav said while walking towards him.
"It is not my place to end you. I will let Dahria and the people you had under your tyrannical reign decide what to do to you," Gustav added while grabbing Emperor Dhios by the hair.
Fwwhhiisshhh~
They both vanished from the vicinity in the next instant.
It was finally over. The battle that shook the planet. The battle that kept the people of Abruikis awake for the entirety of the night…
And as it came to an end so did the eleven years of Emperor Dhios' tyrannical reign.
The day would later be remembered all across the planet for centuries to come...
