"Your body is the only thing that needs to be big, you don't need to talk big as well." Hel snorted. The slime might have successfully avoided the previous attack, but that wasn't her best as well.
She raised her hand as if commanding the Death Avatar.
A pair of red eyes flashed within the skull as the Death Avatar's hands started to move toward each other, leaving only a ten feet gap.
Death Lordship.
"!!!" The slime felt something weird the moment the skull joined its hands. At the same time, the skull was releasing black-colored energy.
Suddenly, an invisible pressure surrounded the slime, trying to crush him.
'This is… her power?' The slime hurriedly used his Dissolve power to disintegrate the surrounding pressure.
If she was the only person he fought, his ability would work. But Theo and the Heavenly Sovereign were there.
With a flick of his fingers, the Heavenly Sovereign summoned a trigram. Eight elements emerged from it and erupted.
These eight elements flew toward the Goddess of Death, specifically the area around her.
"Hmm?" The slime felt the power of eight elements near the Goddess of Death, causing a disruption in his own power. He had been using his Dissolve power like radiation, allowing him to dissolve everything around him.
But the Heavenly Sovereign had seen through it and used his power to complicate his process just by having all the elements near it.
Theo, of course, didn't plan to let the Goddess of Death hog all the glory. When she and the Heavenly Sovereign restrained the slime a little bit, Theo and his clone clasped their hands, using the same technique.
Reverse World.
They turned the elements that the Heavenly Sovereign sent into something else, complicating the process even further. With this, there was no way the slime could dissolve the power from both of them.
In addition, Hel's power could finally show its true might.
"!!!" The slime was startled because the attack didn't hit physically. Instead, it hit his very own existence.
The pressure that she exerted earlier was superficial.
The slime felt himself return to the beginning when he was only a small creature. He had been trying to survive and swallow everything around him.
But eventually, he reached a place where he swallowed one of the most polluted water. In addition to the Magic Power's existence that allowed him a small microorganism to grow, the contaminated water gave him a chance to grow even further.
The polluted water contained nuclear waste, chemicals, and even other industrial waste discharge.
Due to it, he, who wasn't supposed to become this big, managed to overcome the limitations of his species and evolved within a short period of time.
The more he dissolved and swallowed the others, the further his ability developed. The world also acknowledged his existence, but the smarter he became, the more his heart was filled with desire.
Before long, he killed King Class Monsters and World Class Monsters. At that time, he finally realized that the world was also there. That was the time he dissolved the world's love.
It was said that an equal love was fair and just. But the slime had a different way of thinking. Equal love was just a restriction for someone to get more.
The world's equal love meant they were given the same chance and opportunity. They had the same system and similar abilities.
But due to it, it became a restriction for others, who were more capable of achieving a bigger thing. That was why there were two people that would get the most benefits in front of equal love.
The first person would be the one that managed to become the favorite. They would be showered with a lot more things and become the leader.
Unfortunately, this was impossible for the world. The world had maintained its balance for a very long time. That was why the slime knew he couldn't become the favorite child of this world.
Hence, he took the second path, which was to become someone who wasn't affected by that love.
That was right. He dissolved the world's love for him, allowing him to gain a freedom that no one ever had before.
The power system the world had didn't affect him anymore. And he could finally do things more and gain a lot more things than anyone in this world.
And one of them was the ability that he was going to show.
"It seems that you have underestimated me too much." The slime's voice was full of anger. There was a strange confidence mixed in it.
Theo narrowed his eyes before seeing one of the realities. Theo shouted, "Move away!"
"!!!" The Heavenly Sovereign and the Goddess of Death were confused by that reaction. But when they saw Theo and his clone had already leaped away, they tried to do the same.
All of a sudden, a red light appeared in front of everyone.
The Death Avatar covered Hel's body, protecting her. The Heavenly Sovereign formed a trigram that became solidified, turning it into his shield.
Meanwhile, both Theo and his clone used the Blink Skill to get away.
The red light shone brightly before they exploded.
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
"!!!" All of them were utterly shocked when they saw the explosions.
"What? An explosion? This power… isn't it…" The Heavenly Sovereign gritted his teeth as though he was frustrated despite successfully blocking the explosion.
The Goddess of Death clicked her tongue while saying, "That's possible. Just for a moment, I see the Death Energy coming from him. His body has dissolved and absorbed a lot of things, so it won't be strange that the body still has the remnants of the things that have been absorbed."
Theo narrowed his eyes, finding another thing. That explosion earlier wasn't registered by the world's system. There was only one instance when it happened.
Theo warned everyone. "All of you have to be careful from now on. That ability earlier… comes from the power of an Order or Reality. I'm afraid the slime can utilize that kind of power…"
