SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

716 Unstoppable Force Vs Immovable Object [Pt 2]

Serah had realized that her Arcana was capable of destroying concepts during one of their many training sessions when she had sparred with Neron, during the group's preparation week.

She had completely rendered time useless and had even been able to fight a Neron who couldn't use his time abilities.

All the time around her burnt up thanks to her abilities, and he was left with only his other abilities. Of course, Neron still won, but in Serah's defence, she hadn't gotten the hang of her abilities yet.

If she had, no matter what Neron threw at her, it would have been rendered meaningless by her unstoppable power. After practising it and learning how to apply it to her other abilities, Serah finally found a name for this power—UNSTOPPABLE.

Combined with her INVINCIBLE, and Mage Mode, Serah found the perfect name for this new combination of hers…

"INVINCIBLE: UNLIMITED!"

"Nice name." Karlia commented in response to Serah's declaration.

"Thanks. Everyone said it sounded repetitive."

"Nah. It's cool. Mine is called Perfect Immunity. As if immunity doesn't already mean perfect resistance."

As both ladies spoke to each other, they understood more about these abilities of theirs—as well as their personalities. Before long, they realized something.

They were both curious!

"I want to see… just how far you can go!" Serah grinned devilishly.

Of course, she considered her power to be invincible. She knew it was capable of destroying anything and everything. This opponent of hers would suffer the same treatment that everything around them would get.

Utter annihilation.

"This is worth studying. When I win, I'll be taking that Arcana to study it. I wonder if I can tap into the secrets of unlimited energy through it." Karlia's smile was just as malevolent.

She had thought this encounter would be a waste of time, but her mind changed the moment Serah revealed this trump card of hers.

'I am yet to possess perfect offensive abilities—just passive defences.'

"One more question before we fight. Why do you not use your Arcana to fight? It could help, you know?" Serah asked with both curiosity and excitement.

She didn't want any holds barred. Her confidence reigned so high that she was guaranteed victory even if Karlia used every arsenal at her disposal—Arcana included.

"Ah, that. I actually have."

"What?!" Serah was surprised.

Had there been any effects that she hadn't noticed yet? Or, could it be…?

"It's not exactly what you think. You see, my Arcana isn't an offensive type. It's called [The Lovers], and its essential function is to completely merge two properties and make them one or perfectly separate the distinct properties of an object—Thus, it can also reverse its effects. I mean, I could use it in combat as well, but I prefer to use it for my research and experiments. Alchemy can be pretty useful when attempting to—"

Karlia stopped before she could finish her sentence, after realizing that she was already getting carried away with her explanations.

Her Arcana was actually back in her facility—as it was serving its function. She could summon it at any time, but what was the point of disrupting the process?

"It's thanks to the Arcana, I was able to merge all the various resistance and abilities I obtained over the years, granting me Perfect Immunity. I've also merged several other abilities to make them more powerful, so… I don't really need it in a fight."

"I see…"

To be fair, even in the eyes of an invincible being like Serah, Karlia was just too impressive. She seemed to have too many abilities at her disposal—none of which she had even seen yet.

Still, no ability could stand a chance against invincible power.

"Here I come!" Serah's grin widened, and her eyes turned bloodshot as she sped towards Karlia.

Even the wind was nonexistent—sound as well—as Serah appeared before Karlia. There was no oxygen or any other element around. The only things present… were these two.

'Normally she would have been destroyed, but her resistance is strong. A direct hit should do it.'

In one swift thrust, Serah sent her fist flying in Karlia's direction.

However…

"I didn't say I would let you hit me, though."

Karlia was right behind Serah.

'I didn't even… see her move!'

Space should have been warped so how did she do it? Teleportation was impossible, movement should have been greatly impeded due to spacial and gravitational malfunction.

How could she have gotten behind her so fast despite all that?

"I simply moved. I told you before… I'm strong."

'Tch!' Serah had to admit that her opponent was powerful.

Ultimately, she needed to also do better. Be faster. Stronger. Quicker. Karlia was avoiding her attacks because she knew the damage they would cause.

In essence, her Perfect Immunity wouldn't work!

'One hit… I only need a hit!' Moving swiftly —much faster than before—Serah launched another attack.

This time, Karlia didn't get out of the way—perhaps she couldn't due to the sheer speed—causing her attack to connect. However, it didn't hit Karlia directly. Rather…

'An energy wall?!'

A wall of power blocked Serah's fist. Such a thing should have been impossible for a mere energy wall, as her attacks would have eaten right through it. However, Serah recognized the properties of the shield.

'T-this is… [The Sun]!'

"Hope you don't mind. I borrowed some of your energy to deflect the attack. I have to say, though… it's hard to even take any." Karlia's smug smile vexed Serah.

"Rarrrghhhhhh!!!" In a fit of rage, her power increased—intensifying to the point whereby even someone as powerful as Karlia wouldn't dare to take power from it.

"Yikes…"

In a brilliant move, Serah ascended to the sky. She joined her palms together and created a massive blast of energy. One that would utterly envelop the entire region in pure, unstoppable power.

"Eat thisssss!!!!"

A brilliant, yet dangerous orb of light manifested at the edge of Serah's joint palm, and it was pointed at Karlia.

This time, though, the succubus appeared worried—thus, giving Serah the sign to release the energy. And then…

With nothing in its path, the ball of concentrated power went straight for Karlia.

Rather than attempt to escape, Karlia hurriedly charged in the direction of the blast—a determined expression on her face.

'I can decide to escape its range. I'm fast enough, but…' Her gaze went to the massive structure beneath.

It was her research building!

'It most likely won't survive the blast!'

As such, Karlia decided to make the ultimate sacrifice—take on the blast, and try her best to contain the explosion.

'Whatever happens… happens!'

Thus, both the Succubus and the ball of destruction clashed… creating the most devastating silent explosion ever.

It lit up the entire island—no, the whole world.
