Supreme Monarch

After learning of the possibility to the create brand new spell as long as he was able to provided the right parameters for Uriel to work with, naturally, Tyler didn't hesitate in finding various parameters from his already acquired skills and spells for Uriel to work with.

​ Using various elements from his Dark Lightning skill and the Tier 5 ThunderStorm spell, Uriel was able to create Tyler's only 8th Tier spell. A spell that had enough potential to achieved a devastating result without even factoring the use of his innate ability.

In essence, She had ended up creating one of the most destructive spells in his arsenal.

Normally, Tyler hadn't planned on using this spell as it would surely eradicate everything in its vicinity but as they were currently hovering in the middle of the ocean, he didn't have to be worried about any collateral damages.

*CLAP!

'Max Magic - Call Dark Thunder Storm!'

With a resounding clap of his hands, black clouds quickly formed across the empty skies above the scarlet seas as purplish black lightning crackled and danced across the clouds, merging with each other as the majority of them gathered around the shadow king before raining down on him in a storm of devastation.

[Why you!]

Being as massive as he was, the shadow king wouldn't be able to completely avoid or absorb the storm of dark lightning even with his speed being nearly on par with Tyler's.

He also couldn't turn his back on Tyler and teleporting out of the scarlet seas would only waste more of Zerahut's precious time, increasing his chances of losing his body to power of the shadow king.

Before Zerahut could fully organize his thoughts, all the smaller strands of dark lightning had fused with one another, creating several massive lightning bolts that targeted him in the storm, piercing through the massive shadowy frame of the Shadow king.

[DAMN YOU!!!]

Although it seemed as though he had tried to absorb all the Magic energy inside the lightning bolts, this was not just ordinary lightning but the dark lighting of absolute destruction. An attack that could ignore most magical defenses and mercilessly tear apart the body and soul of its intended target.

Without fail, the dark lightning clung to the Shadow king as more continuously located him in an overwhelming surge of power that could no longer be contained even for him, shattering the massive shadow king into countless pieces in an instant.

"I see, so even that wasn't enough Huh?"

Tyler frowned as the oppressive presence of the shadow king had not disappeared even after that but had only spread itself out. It seems it had found a way to protect Zerahut's body form the blasts.

After all, as long as the orb of death remains intact in his core, he could not be destroyed.

•Spatial Lock•

Tyler immediately sealed the space around the scarlet sea as it seemed as though the shadow king might be looking to escape so it could fully recover but that was not an option for Zerahut.

Zerahut was already running out of time as without any life energy to combat the excess negative energy being poured into his core, he would soon be swallowed up by the shadow king's will.

Not wasting time, Zerahut reigned in his thoughts and quickly reconstructed the shadow body around him.

However, he had not regained his previous size and the millions of pierces of solidified shadows scattered around began to morph as they soon formed miniature figures of the shadow king. Each having four blade like arms.

[Fine, I'll admit you're quite strong. Stronger than I ever dreamed possible. You see when I first found this power, i never would've even imagine that there would be someone alive who could challenge it. To think the only ones I worried about were to Five, yet here you are, standing in may way.]

As countless shadow kings formed around him, Zerahut suddenly opened his mouth as he spoke to Tyler in a ghastly tone that almost sounded exhausted.

[However, do not delude yourself into thinking you can win. I can smell the corruption within you. Kekekekeke... just like me, you also don't have much time do you? Fufufufu... If you were finding only one shadow king that difficult, say, what would you do about a million? Attack.]

In less than five seconds, there were already more than a million normal-sized shadow kings hovering in the air having completely surrounded Tyler.

If he could not win with his overwhelming strength alone, then he only need to overwhelm him in numbers that even his slight speed advantage over them would not make a difference.

In only an instant, the state of the battle happening above the scarlet sea had shifted from a 1v1 to one versus a million and at Serahut orders, every single one of them charge it him with staggering speeds.

"Huh, well that backfired quickly."

Tyler spoke softly as he smiled bitterly not minding Zerahut's words, he had hoped his spell would've destroyed most of the shadow king's energy in order to give him the advantage even though it could not completely destroy him.

However, his plan seems to have backfired as the shadow king had noticed it and immediately given up on absorbing the destructive energy and shattered himself before he could be destroyed.

Tyler stared at the horde of shadow figures charging at him as he thought of his next move, while the shadows did not give him any time to prepare, he could still gain some leeway to think with thought acceleration even though in this state their movements were still relatively faster than normal.

'Attacking with magic seems a little pointless. With so many targets I could probably destroy a few if I tried but I doubt that'll do any actual damage. The real problem is the undead king isn't it.'

Tyler thought as he avoided the attacks of countless shadows while trying to locate where Zerahut was as he had blended in with the horde after giving his littel speech earlier.

With the spread-out presence of the shadow king, it was difficult to locate the one Zerahut was in as his aura was being masked by the shadows oppressive presence.

The worst part about this fight was that the shdow kings could phase through one another and attack him in numbers that wasn't even physically possible, they could even extend or transform their limbs to make fit very versatile attacks.

In such a situation, Tyler decide to teleport around the battlefield while avoiding attacks without ever striking back, it would be a waste of time if he tried to pointlessly waste his mana in his current state.

Moving around trying to locate the source of this mess, he soon spotted the faint distinctive red glow of Zerahut's core and Tyler headed straight at it.

"Found you."

Without giving him time to speak, Tyler appeared before the shadow king that had Zerahut inside him and stretched forth his arm, grabbing the head of the shadow wrapped around him.

"Devour everything into the bottomless pits of the Abyss."

As though on cue, the solidified shadow around Zerahut began to be sucked into Tyler's palm. Well, they were being consumed by the hungry glove that remained invisible on his hand.

As the shadow king was made entirely of shadows, it was in essence made of Magic and thus, could be consumed by the Magic artifact Tyler had on.

However, the moment the entire shadow figure was consumed, Zerahut was nowhere to be found. It seems he had used some kind of shadow swap ability to escape at the last moment.

Meaning, unless Tyler took care of all one million shadow kings around him, he would never be able to find much less lay a finger on Zerahut.

"How unpleasant this turned out to be."

Tyler frowned as the shadow kings around him continued their assault, he then cast a fireball spell but they quickly absorbed the attack and multiplied even more. He used gravity manipulation to bundle a bunch of them in a ball and then spatial vortex to shred them to pieces but they only reformed themselves in a matter of seconds.

As the shadow king did not possess a soul and was just pure power, even conceptual and spiritual attacks did not seem to work unless he deals with the source.

While a black hole infused with his soul energy would solve all his problems, it would also destroy Zerahut's core, which was the only thing Tyler needed if he was to save himself.

At this point, the negative corruption was rapidly spreading around his body the more he used his skills and he could no longer move his arms or legs. If it was to get to his mana body then he would lose his ability to use his skills and Magic and would surely die, or perhaps he would ne reincarnated in a while giving as he had an immortal soul.

'Now then, how do I destroy a million shadow king— who are only a little weaker than ordinary demigods— while making sure at least one of them survives. Doesn't even matter which one.'

Tyler was pondering this situation as he instinctively avoid every single attack from the horde of enemies. To avoid attacks from over a million monsters almost as fast as you, was not an easy feat at all.

The only reason he was able to do this was because of his skill, FutureSight combined with Spatial Awareness, Spatial Perception, and Magic Sense. If he were to combine them with skill combination he would get a truly overpowered skill called Absolute perception but right now, he was simply using all of them individually at the same time with the help of Uriel.

Although Tyler tried to avoid having Uriel help him with everything in order to gain more real world and battle experience and not get lazy in his mindset, there was no person alive that would be able to individually combine so many skills without actually combining them and reacting in the fastest unit of time possible.

In fact, Uriel already had a plan to easily handle Zerahut from the get-go but Tyler wanted the battle experience which was why he normally didn't seek her help during battles unless there was no longer anything he could gain from the fight. Or he was in trouble like he was now.

Tyler weaved his way through a million shadow kings as he attempted a few skills to gauge what worked and didn't work even if it meant their numbers increased a bit. With spatial teleportation, he could always escape their encirclement, and lucky for him, Zerahut could not seal his teleportation abilities.

Even if he had an artifact or ability that could, as long as he was not stronger than him, Uriel assured him that his authority would overrule such restrictions.

'This should work.'

Having finally come up with a plan, Tyler quickly gave Uriel another combination task as he teleported above the horde of shadows and a massive yet highly dense ball of energy appeared above him.

This was the majority of his remaining energy as he was putting his all into this attack else he would have to escape. Even for him, using so many skills and his constant use of teleportation in such quick successions took a lot out of him.

The dense ball of energy then split into smaller balls of energy the size of golf balls and there were over a million of them spread out as far as the shadow kings.

•Force Imploding Magic bullets•

Having Uriel infuse the force implosion skill into a million Magic bullets, Tyler came up with a new attack even if it wasn't yet a new skill.

The horde of shadow kings had not wasted any time in chasing after him but they were a tad too slow as his technique was already completed, and in the next moment, over a million spirally Magic bullets shot down on the million shadow kings with an accuracy that was only possible by Uriel herself.

Upon impact, the entire body of the shadows collapsed on themselves and disappeared without a trace, leaving only one behind as he couldn't believe his eyes.

"Pardon me, but I'll taking your core now."
