Chapter 2217

2217 - Master Wrath

“…This time, in the middle of the front… try to stop me.” Robin spoke weakly, with a calm tone.

“Wha—?!” The Dark Executioner tried to speak through her damaged throat; Robin’s words were unbearably insulting and heavy!

Then

*Thump*

The pan of the Scale tipped again, and one of the crystals he had been tossing upward disappeared.

Robin, having fully regained his strength, pointed at her and repeated his words as the engravings coursed wildly over his body: <Master Spacetime \ Fourth Lev–>

But he stopped mid-technique; the target was no longer before his eyes.

*Whoosh*

The Executioner moved with immense speed to the side in a zigzag line, then raised her hand to her neck and passed it over for a moment, causing the blood to vanish and the wound to heal. “Fourth Level of Space-Time? Why do you have the Fourth Level of another Master Law?!”

For the first time since her appearance, the Executioner raised her voice with a hint of panic; she had taken Robin’s threat about taking half her life seriously for the first time.

She knew, since the symbols appeared, that Robin had knowledge of four other Master Laws, but how had his understanding of them reached such a terrifying level? And at the same time, had his understanding of Truth reached a level where he could lend it to a spiritual creature?!

"This is not something a human should attain!"

Then she raised her voice in anger, "Hasn't that filthy cheat had enough by finding a trick and granting you the techniques and keys to four Master Laws, but also giving you High Levels of them?!"

"...?!" A bell rang in Robin's mind immediately. He looked around frantically, trying to find the Executioner moving with illogical speed. "Do you mean the All-seeing God?"

"This universe is no longer measurable and should not be part of the system!" The Executioner took a sharp turn toward Robin, raising her Scepter. "Today, I will kill you myself. When the Legion arrives, it won't stop at mere punishments; you will be fully erased for this cycle, and I will personally see to it!"

"A...?!" Robin stepped back slightly.

All the resolve and momentum he had gathered for battle began to fade. His mind struggled to connect the amount of information he had heard, and he seemed to withdraw from the fight!

"Hmph!" The Executioner showed a slight smile when she saw the scene, then thrust her Scepter forward as she advanced toward Robin.
<Void Gap>

*Whoosh*

The overwhelming aura of the Scepter could be compared to the aura of a Seventh Level Displacement Gear, but unlike the Displacement Gear, this spear-tipped Scepter was made for killing.

*Swoosh*

Something like an arrow emerged from the spear, instantly merging completely with the void around it as it headed toward Robin's head. When it touches his head, it will erase him entirely—no blood will remain, not even a Soul Domain!

For Robin, who appeared to be in a state of shock, this strike was enough to kill!

But—

*Eeek*

The pupil of the Huge Golden Eye moved to look toward the Executioner.

“…?!” The Dark Executioner slowed down. That gaze… that gaze seemed to look directly at her very essence!

Feeling insulted that a human like him had threatened her, her expression turned to hatred and anger, but she quickly showed a smile.

The arrow was about to arrive.

The battle

was over.

At that moment, the huge eye sent Golden Threads toward the Gear of Determinism.

*Crrr*

The Gear of Determinism began to move until it reached the broken tooth and stopped with a strong jolt, then three threads emerged from it.

*Thoom*

Upon receiving the thread, the Scale sacrificed a crystal from Robin's hand automatically, turning it into a Pure Energy Sphere floating beside him.

*Tam*

The Net Cube twitched and moved Robin forward by a very slight amount.

*Hoom*

The Ouroboros Ring glowed and used the Energy Ball to create something resembling a mirror in the spot where Robin stood—a strange, broken mirror—which then took on a certain deflection.

"What?!" The Dark Executioner cried out, everything happening at a terrifying speed.

Master Laws cooperating automatically? Is that even possible?!

Whoosh

The Arrow of Void Gap finally arrived to tear off Robin's head, but it found something else.

Crash

The arrow struck the strange golden mirror and shattered into ten pieces, each fragment deflecting in a different direction.

"..?!" The Dark Executioner stood, following the arrow's shards with regret and shock.

But her shock soon deepened.

"No…."

She finally understood the role of the Gear of Determinism in all this.

Whoosh

Whoosh

Whoosh

The ten fragments struck the foreheads of ten Adult Space Beasts.

The beasts didn't even have a chance to scream, nor did they know what had happened.

Their eyes went dark, and the energy within their bodies stopped circulating… their spiritual domains had been pierced with terrifying precision.

"Haha, thanks for the assist, Master!!" Arkalon felt a tremendous pressure lift off him after the death of the ten Adult Space Beasts, and he was already thinking of a way to make use of them.

As for Robin… he didn't look toward the Executioner, nor did he reply to Arkalon.

But he remained standing there… muttering.

"You threatened me… you made your point as clear as crystal…"

Then he gritted his teeth hard.

"You told me you would imprison me in an eternal hell the moment we were forced to meet before the two tasks were completed."

Then he showed a weary smile.

"As a little blind candidate, I went to try to enlarge Nihari and oppose the Syndicate for you… things I've started to feel how trivial and shallow they are. I took your threat seriously and your games as divine commands… but,"

Then he shouted,

"What the hell is going on here?!"

A massive braid of Robin's soul force began to intertwine and coil around a specific point within his Soul Domain, forming something resembling a hammer.

"Throw me into an eternal hell? After everything I've seen today… I want to see how you'll manage without me!"

Then he raised the hammer high.

"After what I heard today…

Even if you actually throw me into hell, I want my answers first!!"

*BOOM*

The hammer came down on the Soul Shard of The All-seeing God, sending massive waves rippling through the entire Soul Domain.
