Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Limit Break

Billy stopped moving, he released his energy.

Embloid are one's true spiritual energy, but magic is the full manifestation of one's embloid, i can't sense him since he doesn't have mana, anything i sense now is myself and the space around me, i will have to pay him back for these awesome gift, brute strength won't help me.

Billy begins blasting himself with energy projectiles.

As expected i am not feeling anything.

"What are you doing, why are you blasting yourself Billy?" Ren appears behind Billy.

Billy was shocked.

I was so focused on attacking myself till i break i didn't notice his movement, wait, is that even Ren?, what if these is another illusion of his?, i can smell him, and i can see him, but my body is refusing these to be Ren.

"When will you stop with these mindless game of yours?"

"Mindless game!, it's not mindless when i can't really even tell just how strong you are, you are powerful enough to shatter these illusion, but for some reason you don't want to."

Billy smiled and punched Ren, but it turns out to be just a shattered particle from the moon.

Another illusion, so there is a slim chance he his not even here, very good.

In the pocket dimension.

Lora,Sylvia,Mio,Tanya and Lilly were all watching the battle.

"I have never seen Ren use these type of ability before."

"Me neither."

"But even so,it looks like Billy is struggling with these level of power set."

"Billy isn't even close to going all out yet!"

"What!"

"Yes, it's true Ren's illusion ability is good and all, but once Billy let go of his limiters ability on that level becomes child play."

"Ehh!, so you want to brag about strength, well sorry for you, Ren isn't fighting at full force either."

Lilly smiled.

"What's funny?"

"You can't compare what they are holding back against each other, Ren is probably using about 30% of his strength, meanwhile Billy is about 3-5% in."

"What?!"

"That's a bare minimum of 6 times stronger than current Ren."

"Can you now see why Ren stands no chance against him?"

"I won't be so sure about that."

"What?"

They all looked at Elsia.

"Elsia what are you talking about?"

"You can only gauge a strength you fully understand, what about if your opponents power is almost endless, what do you do then, i have been the one closest to experiencing master's power, and every time i think i understand his power, he just hit me with {you are no where near understanding my power} then i will venture into understanding through almost endless evolution, what i thought was is limit."

"That's true." Lora said.

"Now you too, everything big brother has been doing since, has been under limit, he has been restricting himself and suppressing himself,that power you think you understand is about billions of time still what he his holding back."

"There you have it Lilly, don't write Ren out of these fight yet, we do not know the type of power Billy has displayed for you, but i promise you, if Ren goes all out, not only Billy but the entire world will fill his presence."

Lilly looked at the girls in surprise then back outside to the battle.

I have always thought i was better at bragging about Billy's power, but watching all these girls defend a single boy with no system, no magic,almost want to make me reconsider, you guys are too interesting!.

Billy released his aura, the space around him start shaking and shrinking.

"Ren, you are amazing, these much power has never been used against any opponent i have faced so far,including clones of myself, who are supposed to be on equal strength as me,but you Ren has forced me to use more power than i expected,rejoice!"

"Thank you."

Ren begins to clap for himself.

"Good pat yourself at the back, cause now i am getting serious."

"Bring it on."

Billy shattered the entire illusion, he touched his palm.

"A scratch, so that was the type of power i gave out, if my attack is strong enough to damage me, then i do pack quite some power in my attacks."

Ren looked at him.

"Is that something, strong guys do?"

"Yes, you can't understand the beauty behind my attack,because you do not know what it feels like."

"Ehhh!"

"One's attack can be so powerful that it destroys mountains and islands but if reflected back it must not do any significant damage,for my attack to leave a scratch must mean, my attack power was slightly greater than my defense."

"I get it now, so in summary you are not as durable as the attack you throw."

"Defense and offense walks together, so my attack and durability are equal."

"Wow!"

"Now that i have increased my strength by 10 folds let's see how long you can keep up with me."

Billy instantly slashed through Ren's cheek, but he barely dodged it and a slight cut appears right on his cheek.

"Ohh you managed to dodge that one, what about my next attack, would you be able..."

He appeared right in front of Ren.

"To dodge these next attack."

Sending a powerful strike that knocks Ren back hundred of meters away.

In the pocket dimension.

"He his strong."

"No joking."

"I have never seen Ren knocked back so far."

"Same here."

"But Billy just increased his strength, he his able to move these fast because of his power increase."

"That's true."

"But why is Ren not going all out?"

"Do you think he has a plan?"

"He always have a plan,but i can't watch him getting all broken like these."

"Don't worry Ren is just getting started."

In space, Billy instantly appears beside Ren.

"Is these some kind of strategy?"

"Strategy, no not really, you are strong, far stronger than i thought, but, your greatest mistake will be you attacking me."

"What are you talking about, did i hit you to hard that your brain is malfunctioning?"

Ren smiled and touched his bleeding cheek.

"So these is what blood looks like,i have always wanted to see what it was like to bleed, but i guess i won't get to understand what it is."

"What are you talking about, you are ...."

Everyone was shocked as Billy had the same cut on his cheek, while Ren's injury vanished.

What did he just do, did he heal himself and attack me so fast, no, the cut is too similar to the one on his face.

"Are you surprised, what you just experienced is called damage transfer."

"Damage transfer?, what are you talking about?"

"Yes, yes, you do not know about me, and what i can do, so i will take my time to explain to you, you know i do not have a system, so i can not possess any extra ordinary skill, but who needs the system when you can copy moves just by learning basic embloid control, if you are very good at it, you should be able create your basic skills like attack reflection or as i like to call it damage transfer."

I have heard damage transfer, works almost instantly, but his reflection ability took quite some time to reflect it, is that one of the flaws to using basic embloid control?

"Why didn't you reflect my attack earlier than now, or is that some kind of flaw?"

"Flaws, i don't do flaws before i use a skill i must have a 99.99% of success, i only delayed the transfer for more damage."

"More damage what are you talking about....."

He spits out blood.

"You feel it don't you?"

"What did you do to me?"

"Simple poison."

In the pocket dimension.

"Poison, but that's impossible."

"Yes what type of poison will work on such powerful opponent?"

"Don't tell me.."

Back to Ren.

"You host behave like you automatically gained immunity to poison, just because you are highly resistant to poison, what about a poison that adapts it's effectiveness, you didn't notice when i scooped some, i knew it will come in handy,but i never thought you will allow me use it on you."

"How did you do it?, it should have affected you?"

"When there was a slight bruise on your hand, i noticed you didn't pay any attention to me, you were only focused on explaining yourself, i already infected you with it then, but the final straw came when i had to transfer the damage i took the poison and transferred everything as part of your damage."

"Just how crazy are you?"

"You are clearly stronger, you don't want to fight me with everything you have, so you decide to crush me, you ignored strategy and focused on strength, that is why you can't win."

"I see, so while you are flexible with your plans, i was only falling into your trap."

Billy begins to laugh.

"What's funny?"

"You really are worth calling my rival."

"Rival in what?"

"After these all whole battle i will announce you my rival."

"Why?"

"You have managed to surprise me twice, and i bet you already have the necessary tool to win these game 3-0."

"Honestly i am out of those i just want to throw hands with you now."

"Is that so, then no tricks, just straight hands."

"Yes."

"Fine by me, bring it on!"

Billy charged straight towards Ren with a full punch but Ren caught the punch and almost strike back but was blocked by billy's leg.

He stopped my hand with his leg, i knew it, he has been holding back, and he is flexible.

Billy twisted his body and with enough boost in his feet he delivered two kicks simultaneously on Ren's chest, kicking him to the surface of the earth's moon.

"He got me with that kick, i was definitely not expecting him to be a skilled fighter, but i guess he does have is own style."

Ren stood up from the moon dusting his clothes.

"I will admit it you are better than i thought, but i am just getting warmed up."

Ren instantly appeared right in front of Billy, with a punch straight in the face, and he followed him with a nice drop kick and then finally kicking him towards the planet itself.

He has increased his speed, now i am the one who can barely keep up with him, Ren you are really amazing.

"But i am not giving up!"

He charged towards Ren.

"Is that so, then i am not giving up also!"

"Come at me Ren, fight me with all you have!"

"With all pleasure."

The two were flying across both planets, destroying everything around them as they fought, their attacks were much stronger than earlier.

In the pocket dimension.

"Those two are really something else."

"Look at them going full force at each other."

"It looks like they are both enjoying the fight."

"I agree."

"Their power is almost equal, while Billy is stronger, Ren is faster."

"I can see it."

"But their strength and speed is not that far off from each other, i think they are equal."

"But with these much intensity, they are bound to not only destroy these close by planets but the sun will also vanish with these much intensity."

"Calm down Mio, our sun isn't as fragile as the planet, it's at least a million times stronger."

"For real?"

"Yes for real."

Back in space, Ren and billy were fighting with all they have burning through their last reserve of energy, with the shock wave from each of their fists colliding sending shock waves to emptiness of space.

"You are not going to quit right now!, are you?"

"I should be asking you that."

"Ohh don't worry i am just getting started."

"Same here."

"Limit break 5%"

"Are you sure you want to use that much power now?"

"If i don't win at least once, then i am still no where near my goal."

"Your goal?"

"Yes, i want to become the strongest, in the universe."

"Nice dream, but strength will bring all but peace to you."

"I don't care as long as i am the strongest, i will fight."

"Nice spirit, then make sure you do not break until you reach your goal."

"I won't!!!"

In the pocket dimension.

"What's with these overwhelming strength in the air?"

"Billy's limit break isn't just a power up, it's a massive jump in power, with just a percentage break, his powers, increases exponentially, his power are amplified beyond numerical value, and he his using 5 %."

"So you guys do have tricks as well?"

"Yes, with just his first attempt he was able to catch up with light beams, and punch so hard it bends space itself."

"What?"

"That's impossible!"

"Yes it sounds impossible, but for billy there is nothing impossible, and ever since then he has gotten stronger and faster."

"Is that so, i will like to fight me."

"No Elsia, you can't just be fighting everyone you see."

"But i want to fight him too."

"Not you too, Ellen."

Billy and Ren's striking strength was so great that it was affecting the pocket dimension where the girls were.

"Don't hold anything back Ren!"

"Same to you, don't you dare hold back!"

The two were covered in blood as they still kept on going.

Ren, you are truly interesting, even without any system, you got these strong, your family has the wealth and status to lie about your strength, everyone thought they were lying, we were sent to test out your strength and it looks like you didn't disappoint your parent, anyone would be proud to know you, but...

"I am still not giving up, even if it breaks me, i will never lose to you!"

Ren smiled.

"You are strong but it looks like your body can't keep up with that much power."

Ren used precised pressure point attack to weaken him before kicking him straight into the near by moon.

"You are strong, but that strength burns too bright for your own body, you will die if these fight goes longer than these."

With that Ren delivers the final blow, knocking Billy out

From the damaged pocket dimension the girls flew out.

"Ren!"

"Big brother!"

"Ren."

"Master."

"So you won?"

"Barely, the power he harnessed during the final moments burns through his life energy, but thanks to his immortality, it won't be a problem to him."

"Told you Lilly,Billy might be strong but he his no where near as skilled and strong as my brother."

"I will tell that to Billy as well."

"Now then let's get back to earth."
