Birth of the Demonic Sword Chapter 1783 - 1783. Non-existence

Chapter 1783 - 1783. Non-existence

Noah instinctively waved his hand toward the pointy structure shooting toward him. Slashes came out of his fingers and pierced the void to interrupt that attack, but they didn't register any impact. They continued to fly through the blackness as if nothing had ever stood on their path.
King Elbas didn't miss that interaction, and the curiosity flowing out of his figure revealed how surprised he was about the event.
No energy was flowing through the void. The two experts didn't even sense the barriers among the dimensions bending to give birth to that attack. No trace of life had appeared among that blackness either. It was as if the event had never happened at all.
King Elbas and Noah were inscription masters who had studied fields that most experts would never approach. Their knowledge crossed normal understanding and allowed them to identify the nature of strange features in instants.
However, they had never seen anything like that. The void had moved without radiating any energy. Space seemed to have become an enemy in that environment.
'This doesn't make sense,' Noah cursed in his mind as both experts flew closer to the hole in the sky. 'How can something do anything without laws?'
The void was pure emptiness. It didn't contain energy or laws. The true meanings that ruled the dimensions worked on a separate layer of existence, but they had no connection with the blackness. After all, space simply existed everywhere.
Noah and King Elbas exchanged a glance. They were missing something. The void was showing abilities that didn't reflect anything they had learnt in their long lives. It was alive without being alive. It was attacking without radiating energy. It imitated space, but the layers among the dimensions didn't move during the last event.
"Do you still want to go back?" Noah asked while wearing an excited smirk.
"Shut up," King Elbas snorted. "This is different. We can't let an unknown threat exist before bringing the others here."
The Demonic Sword materialized in Noah's hand, and King Elbas drew an upper tier fiery spear from his space-ring. Both experts prepared for a battle, even if the void wasn't giving them an opponent.
"Do you know what this is?" Noah asked as the dangerous sensation intensified again.
"I thought black stuff was your thing," King Elbas laughed.
"I get it," Noah said as his smirk broadened. "Let's go crazy."
Noah and King Elbas didn't let the void move again. They pointed their weapons forward and released massive attacks that filled a large area with destructive power.
King Elbas' higher energy fused with the spear and resonated with its golden flames. The radiance that came out of the weapon almost overcame the whiteness before a massive golden sea filled the void.
A piercing slash shot out of the Demonic Sword, but the attack didn't disperse while flowing into the distance. Instead, it created a sharp trail of energy that expanded as dark matter flowed in its insides.
The two attacks touched, but Noah and King Elbas made sure that they didn't affect each other. A golden sea of light and a dense sharpness filled the area around the two experts and prevented every strange attack.
Noah and King Elbas kept their eyes and mental waves on their attacks. They had launched massive techniques that would force every lifeform to leave the area.
Something eventually moved inside the attacks, and Noah shot ahead. He flew through the scorching golden light and activated the unstable substance to endure King Elbas' powerful technique.
The faint trace of foreign energy had appeared among King Elbas' attack. Noah didn't manage to sense from where it had come from. Still, his instincts had reacted to that movement, and his body had shot after it.
The golden light didn't manage to slow him down, and the foreign energy was fast. It ran undisturbed across King Elbas' attack and tried to disperse deeper into the void.
Noah didn't want to get too far from the hole. He placed the Demonic Sword on his forehead and unleashed a storm of black slashes as his consciousness expanded.
The attacks didn't aim to hit the strange energy directly. Noah only cut its path ahead and forced it to retreat toward him.
Noah didn't know how to describe what he saw once the foreign energy entered his vision. A tiny black dot that turned out to be a small human figure was moving through the golden light while black slashes continued to materialize inside the attack and block its path.
The tiny human didn't have any facial features, and it also lacked hands and feet. It almost resembled a small and incomplete doll, but its insides were empty. Actually, it didn't have proper edges even.
'What in the world is that?' Noah wondered as he approached the creature and surrounded it with his dark matter.
The golden light burnt the external layers of his black sea, but Noah had enough higher energy to waste. Also, he didn't want to make King Elbas retreat his technique since he had no idea of the creature's capabilities.
'What?' Noah shouted in his mind when he saw that even his higher energy couldn't stop the creature.
The tiny human figure moved freely through the sea of dark matter, and Noah's technique didn't even sense its presence. That creature didn't seem to exist, but Noah could clearly see it.
'Why did it run away from my slashes then?' Noah wondered before giving sharp features to his higher energy.
The tiny human suddenly panicked when it saw walls of sharp dark matter closing on its position. A cage soon formed around its figure, and the creature finally stopped attempting to escape.
King Elbas flew toward Noah when he sensed that he had stopped. The golden light vanished and revealed a fuming Noah that didn't feature any injury. The scorching attack had tried to pierce his skin, but the unstable substance had prevented it.
King Elbas couldn't hide his annoyance when he saw that Noah didn't suffer any injury, but his curiosity eventually took over his mind. The expert placed his eyes on the small dense sphere in Noah's palm that radiated an intense sharpness.
Noah modified the nature of the dark matter to allow King Elbas to see the insides of the cage. The expert's eyes widened when he saw the tiny human figure trapped inside the dark matter. His consciousness tried to inspect that creature, but his mental waves didn't manage to touch anything.
"How can something like this even exist?" King Elbas asked as his annoyance grew.
The expert was in front of one of the most interesting creatures in the entire world, but his senses could barely perceive it. Even his scanner couldn't gain a read of that strange being. All his items failed to see anything.
"I don't think it actually exists," Noah explained. "It doesn't have matter or energy. It's a mass of emptiness that can pierce almost every material and spell. It's closer to the non-existence, to be honest."
"Can something like that even appear in our world?" King Elbas asked.
"Who knows?" Noah replied. "Heaven and Earth might have destroyed and rebuilt the world countless times as far as we know. They might have experimented in different types of life forms during those attempts."
"Do you think they threw the failures into the void?" King Elbas asked while putting a hand under his chin.
"I don't know what to think," Noah sighed. "Why would something immune to everything even run away in front of my sharpness?"
