Energy is released in the form of pure light source, instantly blinding the opponent.
The more output, the stronger the light.
Once hit, even the great Frieza, who could destroy planets with a wave of his hand, would have to cover his eyes obediently!
Tien Shinhan, Krillin, Goku, and Cell—everyone who has used it praises it!
Against a stronger opponent, it is simply a hard-control ultimate move and a divine escape technique!
Eugene's use of this move made Dix, who had eyes wide open and was charging straight ahead, experience what it means to be blinded in his 24K titanium alloy dog eyes!
The eyes are one of the most relied-upon organs for humans.
Once instant blindness occurs, both the body and mind lose control.
This is why flashbangs are very suitable for initiating an attack.
However, the "flashbang" Eugene deployed was a bit too exaggerated.
It forcibly carved out a realm of pure white in the darkness, with light pillars piercing the night and reaching the heavens.
He had developed this idea during his earlier use of Infinite.
However, this was the first time he applied it in actual combat.
The effect was outstanding!
Hearing the screams coming from behind him, Eugene knew that Dix had completely lost his vision!
Due to this sudden blindness, he was falling into chaos.
If not now, when should they strike?
He gave Ryuu a signal. The two exchanged a look and circled Dix from his left and right.
Ryuu, being the more agile, naturally continued her role as a skirmisher and harasser.
Eugene, on the other hand, maintained his style, seeking an opportunity to end the fight with one strike!
Whoosh!
Ryuu wielded her wooden sword with both hands, and starlight dotted her cloak.
Her title was "Gale," and her footsteps were as light as if she were treading on the wind.
No, she was actually flying!
Not by any skill of pushing off the ground, but by utilizing her innate affinity with the wind, she floated in the air!
"—The now distant forest canopy. The infinite stars embedded in the boundless night sky."
The ethereal chant began. Layers of warm and active magic power shimmered on Ryuu's body.
She continuously spun and flew around the disoriented Dix, sometimes striking with the long wooden sword, and sometimes performing dangerous cuts with the tachi (long katana) she wore at her waist.
She did not aim to wound Dix, but merely to hold him in place.
No one can immediately adapt to the sensation of lost sight in a few seconds; even a Level 5 would require a long period of adjustment.
Moreover, Eugene had already sliced off one of his ears!
In his ears, there was only the constant sound of chanting, and the symphony of wind spirits that seemed to come from all directions at once.
Dix roared in frantic anger but received no response.
He wildly and furiously swung his spear in place, the blood-red spear tip tracing countless arcs in the air, creating an impenetrable zone.
But neither Ryuu nor Eugene had any intention of engaging him in close combat.
If you can be a sorcerer and watch your opponent crumble, who would bother getting close to risk a slugfest?
"Respond to a voice as foolish as mine, and once more grant me the protection of the stars. Bestow upon the one who abandoned you the light of compassion—"
"—Come, drifting wind, wandering traveler."
"Fly across the sky, race across the wilderness, move with speed greater than all things. Conquer the enemy with the light of the stars."
An increasingly intense magical glow gathered around Ryuu. Her expression was solemn, and countless large and small spheres of light materialized in the air.
"Go!"
Ryuu gracefully spread her arms toward the monster, which symbolized evil.
"Luminous Wind!!"
The countless light points behind her turned into meteors, bombarding Dix all at once!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Dix sensed the danger, leaping and scrambling across the floor in a desperate attempt to escape. At times, he swung his spear, batting away the incoming magical impact.
But Ryuu's magic was different from Eugene's; it could be released all at once, or it could be sustained as an area-of-effect bombardment!
"This method is quite good too, I've got new inspiration."
Eugene, standing in a corner, raised his eyebrow.
Just then, Dix's movements suddenly changed.
He no longer blindly fled, and the accuracy of his spear became increasingly precise.
It was his left eye!
The Daedalus bloodline that he hated, in this critical moment, surprisingly saved him, as his vision began to recover bit by bit!
Time's up.
Eugene quietly took a step forward.
Amidst the noise, the sound he made was almost negligible.
"Ha—"
Cerulean streams of light spilled from his nose and mouth, and a scorching, compressed point of magic power brewed in his throat!
Giant Breath—Ten Second Charge!
!!!
A chill went down Dix's spine as a soul-searing magical aura appeared in his sensory range!
His feet moved; every muscle, every cell, produced the urge to flee for his life at that moment!
But even a Level 5 adventurer couldn't outrun this roar!
Boom!!
A circle of vacuum ripples shot through the air!
At the center of that huge circle, blood sprayed from Dix's ears and nose. Like a powerless kite, he was sucked into the storm and sent flying backward!
Every inch of skin on his body cracked open, and blood poured out profusely, only to be instantly pulverized by the wind pressure into a crimson mist!
Bang!
The ferocious monster scraped a deep trench across the floor, half his body buried in the rubble, before finally coming to a stop.
Eugene unhurriedly walked forward.
Behind him, the ruined half-wall still exuded an air of extravagant wealth.
In front of him, it was a wasteland.
"Ugh... Ah..."
Dix, with one eye, one ear, one arm twisted backward, and covered in blood, still tried to struggle to his feet.
But just as he painfully propped up his body, Eugene's fingertip glowed white, and he waved it from a distance.
Both of Dix's knees were instantly pulverized!
"Gah aah!"
The man, whose entire body was racked with pain, could only watch Eugene approach, completely helpless.
He was still wearing his intact formal suit.
"How does it feel?"
Eugene asked out of the blue.
"I..."
"If you're going to kill me, just do it quickly..."
Dix's lips trembled. In the end, he couldn't even manage to utter a threat.
He was in agonizing pain right now; he had never experienced such torment in his life.
It was an internal and external pain that felt like it was tearing his soul apart.
Aside from his injuries, this was also a consequence of the backlash from his berserk magic.
Every power comes at a cost.
"Does it hurt that much?"
"Compared to those talking monsters, what you're tasting is only a small fraction of what they felt."
His words stunned Dix.
A moment later, a look of disbelief appeared on his lips.
It was because of this?
This guy had caused all this chaos, severely wounded him, and nearly killed him—all for this?
To make him experience the pain those beasts had endured?
"You lunatic!"
"You've gone mad!"
"We are people! We are adventurers! What's wrong with killing two monsters?"
Dix roared in defiance. He didn't understand why Eugene would judge him from the perspective of an Xenos (alien monster).
Eugene was silent for a moment.
[Your mark is mine, and my mark is still mine.]
His form rapidly shifted. Under Dix's shocked gaze, he completely changed his appearance.
A Minotaur, radiating ferocity and possessing a burly figure, appeared before him!
"You, no, this is fake..."
Dix's eyes trembled.
He seemed to want to say something.
But Eugene wouldn't waste any more time.
Pfft!
He summoned the cutlass and easily severed Dix's four limbs!
"AAAHHHH—!!!"
The scream caused Ryuu to turn her head away.
Eugene's voice was hoarse and deep:
"You shall repay your tyranny with pain."
He extended his finger, and under Dix's terrified gaze, he plucked out his one remaining eye.
"You shall repay your arrogance with an eye."
Finally, he grabbed Dix's hair and ended the opponent with a clean decapitation.
Blood flowed like a waterfall!
"You shall repay your sins with blood!"
As many evils as you have committed, so many debts you must repay!
Eugene lifted the head, which was filled with terror, scrutinized it with satisfaction, and then stored it in his system space.
[The clock strikes twelve.]
He transformed back into the handsome man full of mysteries.
"Alright."
"The debt here has been collected."
Eugene turned his gaze toward the deepest corner, his eyes flashing with a cruel light.
There, Terry's face was as pale as paper, his soul nearly having flown away.
"It's your turn."
