Chapter 8 - One Man, Ten Thousand Shadows

"House Voss Secret Art: Midnight Domain!"

Following Theron's yell, his veins bulged and blood vessels burst; however, under his newfound immortality, these wounds healed almost instantly.

At his center, above the sky and beneath the ground, tens if not hundreds of kilometers of space became instantly covered in darkness.

His fallen shadows rose once more, with various beings added to their ranks.

From tens, to hundreds, to thousands, to tens of thousands, with all kinds of dragons, giants, and monsters roaring to the sky as they paid homage to their master.

Even the original twenty family members he brought, although fifteen at this time, had been caught up by this move.

"Ha-ha, Obsidian Sea, although from all of this, I can already tell today's events were a trap."

"Because of that, after I kill you, I'll also go and kill whoever is behind you!" he said as dark shadow energy like smoke began to rise from his body.

Facing two eighth orders, he had no reason to hold back.

Not only that, but using Midnight Domain, especially to an extent as large as this, his body would have long since collapsed due to mana overload and over-strain.

However, taking advantage of his sudden Immortality, Theron decided to let the world know once more what it meant to challenge the man closest to God.

And the cultists, seeing him like this, although shocked by his sudden change, still showed no signs of retreat.

"Should I say that you are indeed the king of darkness?" said the white robed on the right

"However, no matter what moves to make, today is your death!" said the white robed on the left

"Void secret technique: Abyssal Sacrifice!"(x2)

Saying this together, the remaining black robed cultists behind them instantly began to clutch their chests in agony

"Argh!!!!!"

"Help!!!!"

"Lord Demon God! I don't want to die!"

Sadly, none of their prayers came true as they all soon died, blood leaking out from all their orifices, their veins bulging, each of them wearing a facial expression filled with pain and agony

A scene that made Theron, who was about to attack, hesitate.

"Damn! Although I've fought you bastards many times over the years, your heartlessness never seems to amaze me."

Looking at them kill their subordinates, Theron knew he had to kill them before whatever they were planning worked

"Shadow army attack!"

"First-class shadow magic! Shadow hand!"

Once again using shadow hand, Theron condensed a giant hand made of shadow mana, slapping toward the white robes

However, unlike before, under the Midnight technique, the hand this time was several kilometers long

*Boom!*

With a loud bang, under this attack, a small earthquake occurred as even the tectonic plates of the continent felt a slight shift

For this fight, surrounding empires had long turned their gaze as the concentration of mana served as a bulb letting top powerhouses know something was going on there.

"Ha-ha, King of darkness, you are too late!"

Under his dark palm, a voice that sounded like multiple people were talking at once resounded throughout the air

Before anyone could react, a monstrous creature soon made its appearance.

At a staggering hundred feet tall with eyes all over its body, a body which was akin to a huge blob of slime, and two familiar faces on its chest

It seemed that the white robed had successfully summoned and merged with whatever that spelled called over.

"Hahah! Theron Voss! We said earlier! Today you will die!"

A voice so loud, the surrounding air trembled with each syllable.

Looking at the giant monstrosity in the sky, as if making a decision, Theron's eyes suddenly became firm as he took out a cigar and a lighter from his pocket

"Hey Alfred, most of you guys have followed me for years, and I'm sure you know that I'm not this strong."

"A few minutes ago, I was at my limit; however, a strange force suddenly entered me, healing my body and constantly replenishing my strength."

Taking a puff from the cigar, Theron, without turning back, spoke to the troops he had brought with him and their leader, Alfred

A person who was not only the captain of the Voss mage corps, but also his personal secretary and seventh-order mage

"Haha! Perhaps some God paying attention here suddenly decided to help me, or some unnatural power."

"However, what remains sure is that using this power, I have to stop these cultists from making any further moves!"

"Hahaha! Alfred! You know, I really wanted to be there to see my son be born! However, duty calls!"

"Perhaps that makes me a bad father! But still…!"

"This Bad Father is the strongest man in the world!"

Not giving them a chance to react, Theron directly activated his final move

"House Voss Secret Art: One Man, Ten Thousand Shadows!!!"

Yelling this, his skin suddenly turned pitch black, his pupils bright purple as the midnight domain suddenly began to collapse inward with him at the center

Ten meters, twenty meters, fifty meters, one hundred meters until it met the height of the void aberration.

"Haha!Obsidian bastards! Take my punch!"

*Boom!*

Punching the blob of slime, a huge amount of pain ran through his body as his vision became blurry

Feeling the load on his body, he felt like he was going to die at any second. If one could look at the soul, one would notice that cracks were appearing in his soul.

Obviously, this mode was a last resort for him.

Had it not been for Damien, who used his DP, he wouldn't even have been able to launch this move, much less throw a punch

However, comparing the speed of his healing to the cracks, Theron calculated that he had at most twenty-four hours to defeat this monster in front of him.

"Damn mortal! How dare you attack this great one!"

"This body is a void body granted by my lord! Die and repent!"

Yelling back angrily, the blob stretched out a hand from his body, hitting Theron directly in his stomach, knocking him down on one knee

However, even then, Theron just laughed

"Ha ha, if that's a body granted by your God, that means he must be some ugly bastard."

"No wonder under your hood you all look like shit!"

Pressing his palms on the ground, he instantly launched another attack

"Shadow thorns!"

Under his command, huge shadow spikes of over a hundred meters rose from the ground, stabbing and trapping the monster

But even he knew that was nowhere near enough, for this battle of titans was not ending anytime soon.

Rather than looking at the state of both parties, it was obvious that things had just begun.
