The G.o.ds had already realized what happened and fully believed and followed Arima's words by going through the Heaven Gate.

But when they reappeared on the other side, what they felt almost made them go back instantly. The great pressure of the World Laws was weighing on them along with a colossal aura.

Thousands of miles away from them, the light shrouding Arima had turned black and his figure was strangely expanding over time.

His aura was also growing dangerously, to the point Layla started to find it overbearing. Under that black and red light, Arima's body kept becoming bigger.

The silhouette of his robe was gone but the shadow of his wings and tail were just enlarging threateningly. Dark lightning erupted from Arima and covered the sky like a spider net. Thunder roared and it even felt like the gravity was turning stronger just because of the physical manifestation of the aura.

When Arima's height reached around fifty meters, you would need to be dumb to not understand what was happening. The Law of Libra had indeed worked beautifully and triggered the Final Resonance.

Even though Arima was experiencing tremendous pain at the moment, it couldn't be compared to what happened during the Life Judgment.

In the end, the Final Resonance wasn't something like a perfect fusion as in Layla's case. Each time Arima and Night resonated together, they were not actually mixing their abilities and appearance. To be exact, Arima approached the state of a true dragon after each resonance.

And at the moment, the final result was nearing what Arima thought was the Eternal Dragon. When the black light reached its highest glow, a pair of red eyes opened in the shadow and an ear-breaking roar resounded.

h.e.l.l's shaking became even stronger, the sky cleared up and the lightning vanished. A huge tornado was formed by a single flap of those wings and Arima's figure was temporarily lost.

When the wind died down, everyone could now see what was the result as they looked at the giant figure standing on the ground.

A very tall body reaching eighty meters. When the wings were deployed, they would span for more than a hundred meters.

The pitch-black dragon was standing surprisingly straight. The dragon's physique was quite different from Night's. It really looked like a human. The scales covering him were quite large but the muscles defined by them looked like a lot like a human.

The legs were slightly bent but they were just as much as a normal bipedal animal. Red lines were spread on his body and formed Arima's sigil on the chest. There was continuously a brighter hue of red circulating on these lines like a photonic circuit.

Like with Night, there was a silver mane going from the top of the dragon's head to the end of the tail. When the dragon opened his mouth, steam escaped and even electricity sparkled naturally.

Arima opened his eyes. He scanned the Téra with his crimson and purple eyes and his pupils became even thinner. Like an overlord, Arima was standing there with his arms crossed, glaring at the horde of monsters.

"{…Wow}" Karma mumbled as she felt Arima and Night's power. The soul in which she was residing became even wider and denser than before.

The dragon grinned and opened his mouth "I like this sensation a lot" Arima and Night's voices were superimposed and sounded deeper and powerful.

Arima took a few moments to get used to the feeling of having different physiology. He waved his tail and broke the ground with the wind pressure.

He snorted and black fire escaped his nostrils. He uncrossed his arms and closed his hands repeatedly. He then stretched his right hand and purple light appeared for him to grab. When he pulled on it, he drew a really terrifying and large katana.

It looked more like a saber rather than a katana. There was no sheath, the fascinating red and purple blade was exposed for everyone to admire. The chain hanging from the handle had coiled around Arima's arm and reached the shoulder.

Arima didn't even look back at the astounded G.o.ds and took a step forward. The earth crumbled and the dragon disappeared. The sound of thunder echoed and the sky above the Téra was already being covered by thick and dark clouds.

The purple lightning that connected them time to time even made Zeus frown. But when they fell down on the ground, they made him sweat like crazy.

Around them, above the circular gathering of Téra, the lightning started to fall and create a sort of impenetrable wall of purple electricity.

A scary explosion would come with each lightning bolt. h.e.l.l didn't even need Heaven's collapsing to shake. Thunder which continued to resound stronger every second, the trembling that never stopped and finally the huge dragon who split in half hundreds of Téra with a single swing of his blade.

Arima landed in the middle of the stampede and started going wild. As expected, the Téra were strong. Each one of them had at least the strength of a first divine and the stronger ones seemed to be even stronger than the limit of the Heavenly Realm, at the level of Ifrit.

Arima grabbed one of the bigger Téra with his claw. He lifted the thirty meters tall monster easily and crushed its head before throwing it at the others.

The smaller and weaker ones would simply die or be vaporized by the dragon's lightning and movements. A single move from him would cause lightning to explode and a crater to form right under him. When he turned his back, it was his tail that would fight against the Téra.

"{Those guys, it seems that they can't use magic}" Arima remarked as he deflected a giant blade-like arm. He then grabbed the fifty meters tall Téras and inhaled before blowing a cruel and unstoppable dark flame.

"{That's fortunate}" Night responded.

"{Indeed}" Karma immediately agreed.

Arima snickered and kicked the ground as he flew up. He spun in mid-air and deployed his wings. He looked at the ground and took an Iai stance. Karma was ignited and charged with black fire and lightning.

"[Forta.s.se Aeterna Noctem] (Flamboyant Eternal Night)" Arima chanted and swung his katana. The wave of lightning and fire reached the ground and exploded with a loud detonation.

From the G.o.ds' position, it looked like a bouquet of fire crowned by a halo of lightning. It certainly was a breath-taking sight. Particularly if you could feel the energy it was producing.

"Let's go now" Layla spoke up and flapped her wings. The G.o.ds looked at each other and then realized that Layla was going toward the explosion and not Arima who was already somewhere else.

They instantly understood that she was trying to take advantage of the hole Arima had created to go through the horde. Chulainn was the first one to follow and started running to catch up with her. Gabriel was next and the rest followed suit.

Meanwhile, Arima didn't leave the zone of the explosion because he wanted to but because he was pushed back by a strange Téras. It was ten meters tall, not that big, but its appearance had something really special compared to others.

That Téras was the one that looked the most like an actual human. Even if its face was emotionless and its eyes uneven and closed. The limbs and body structure were the exact same.

And at the same time, it was also the strongest he met until now. Arima grunted. He planted his sword on the ground and chains loosened up. He would not be fast enough with Karma to catch that guy.

He started using his body to attack that Téras. Most of the time, it would evade but Arima wasn't inexperienced enough to strike mindlessly. By making good use of his tail and the continuous lightning that was falling here, he was leading the fight.

Even so, he was stunned by that monster's strength. If it wasn't for the fact that Arima raised his physical limit to 200% he would have been completely overwhelmed by his opponent.

"(This physical strength is unreal!)" He complained in his mind and his pupils contracted when the enemy he was fighting vanished right in front of him.

The next instant, he felt that he was. .h.i.t in the back and ended up in the middle of a giant crater before he could defend himself.

"(No way, he became even faster!)" Arima immediately sensed something and called Karma. The katana came to him and arrived in his hand at the speed of light.

When Arima grabbed the sword, he immediately used it to block a shadow that was charging at him from the side. The shock of the impact went through the blade and numbed his hand.

"[Fulgur Anguis] (Lightning snake)" Arima chanted without any hesitation and transformed into a being made of pure electrons. He escaped through all of the collapsed Téra who had been killed by his clash with the abnormal monster and soon reached the sky.

Once he had a considerable elevation, he released his magic and stared at the ground hastily as he also gathered Time magic into his body.

He spotted the Téras who hit him and extended his hand "[Fifth Destruction Art, Spatium Horti]" Among the Kind Demon's Arts, the Fifth Destruction Art was definitely the one who needed the least mana and time to cast while also being very destructive.

The dark sphere immediately locked in the Téras and the red roses bloomed on its surface "[Gaudete] (Burst)" Arima activated the hidden effect and the sphere began to twist in all kind of strange ways.

But before it could explode, cracks appeared on it and the Art broke soon after by the Téras' punch "…Seriously?" Arima was dumbfounded.

"{That may be the first time someone ever managed to stop one of your Arts}" Night commented and Arima clicked his tongue.

As he was about to continue his a.s.sault, a figure suddenly appeared above him, totally unaffected by the chaos of lightning around.

Even with slowed-down Time, Arima was late. But he still managed to parry the shadow with Karma before turning into a comet which crashed on the ground and dug out the soil and the stone as he was buried hundreds of meters underground.

Arima roared and a ma.s.sive pillar of lightning fell on him and erased every Téra around while the earth around him was also obliterated.

He flew out of the giant hole he had just created and landed on a flat zone where, except two Téra, nothing else was present.

One of the Téra was the one he was fighting since the beginning while the other was the one who punched him and sent him miles underground.

That one was a lot bigger than his abettor. He wasn't as big as Arima's current form, but he was still sixty meters tall and quite large. He didn't really appear as a human like the other but he still had a clear appearance contrary to the other Téra who seemed to be a mix of different animals.

In one word, he was a giant, shadowy bear. Arima smirked as he stared at them. The lighting had stopped falling and even the other Téra didn't approach anymore. The battlefield was quiet and the two in front of Arima didn't seem to want the first move.

Arima looked around "{So these guys have intelligence, huh?}"

"{What's so surprising about that?}" Karma inquired innocently and Arima chuckled.

"{They were born barely twenty minutes ago. If they have this kind of intelligence already, it means they will be quite dangerous if left alone in the wild for too long}" Night answered her.

Arima silently agreed and glanced at Layla's group. It seemed that they were going to make it through "Okay" He spoke and the Téra raised their heads as if they wanted to listen.

"(They want to learn…?)" Arima thought and shouldered Karma. He smirked and spread his mana across his entire body "[Terminus Confractus, CD] (Limit Break, 400)" His physical strength raised by another 200% in no time and the Téra immediately felt that change.

"Come at me with all you've got" Arima taunted while waving his fingers "Let me learn more about you all" He grinned and thunder roared before the rain started to fall heavily.
