Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 408: An Extremely Unfair Battle... Part-3.



[World Authority: Shockwave]

[Sage Art: Repulsion: Broken Vessel!]

Ashtel stood there without moving a single finger, yet when the quasar was just a few

centimeters away from him, it got scattered in different directions and never actually reached Ashtel.

*BOOOM*

The massive energy of that quasar was enough to shatter all the planets in this fake solar system.

It was like a scene straight out of a calamity.

That mana-enhanced quasar was so dense and hot that the space-time fabric itself became hotter, and immense amounts of radiation were generated from that quasar attack.

That attack was one hit-kill move; any SS-ranker would have been dead if hit by something like that.

But Ashtel was still standing there completely unharmed; in fact, that attack never ever reached him; it collided with something invisible before it could reach Ashtel and got scattered in all directions.

Seeing this scene, Neo was too shocked to even speak.

"T-this..."

Ashtel patted his clothes, and then he spoke with a smirk on his face.

"Hmm, that was a strong move; if it was me from last year, I would have definitely gotten injured by that, but now it's not enough..."

Neo made his plan according to Ashtel's power level, but who could have thought that Ashtel would end up making such insane progress in just a matter of a few months.

Neo is quite sure that Ashtel's World Authority was only at level 4 last years! Increasing world authority level is not a child's play; it takes decades or even centuries to increase just a single level.

It's extremely difficult!

That's why Neo made his plan to contend with Ashtel by assuming that the other party has level 4 world authority, and worst-case scenario, he might have level 5, which he might be hiding from everyone.

Neo had already overestimated enough from the start, and yet his estimations fell short; he didn't take into consideration how much of an effect Riya's ascension will have on Ashtel.

In the first place, Riya was never supposed to have gotten that 'world's protection', but Rio's 'The Anomaly' changed the entire course of the plotline, and things went a different path.

Due to Rio's intervention, Ashtel got to witness that brilliant sight of the world's power in person and got inspiration.

Right now, Ashtel is not at level 4 world authority anymore.

"Level 7..."

The moment Neo spoke those words, everything in the area went silent; even those braindead puppets instinctively backed off from Ashtel, and the world seemed to have come to a standstill in that moment.

"Hahaha, you finally figured it out, nice!"

Hearing Ashtel's laugh, Neo sighed,

"You are a monster... Just how talented can someone be so blessed by the world!? You d*mned monstrosity!!"

Neo's expression turned hideous at that moment.

He had already overestimated significantly, but he hadn't anticipated that Ashtel would surpass even those overestimations by a significant margin.

The Dragon King Idri has World Authority Level 7, but that was only possible because the other party has put a lot of efforts into training and he's more than 1000 years old!

Ashtel, on the other hand, is not even 100 years old yet, and he's already at a level that's equal to the dragon king!

"This is pure insanity... This is unbelievable... Why, why only you have such great luck, such great talent? I loathe you from the very bottom of my heart, Ashtel Rex!"

Hearing all those words of insults, Ashtel just shook his head, and the same calm smile remained on his face all along.

"Whining like that will get you nowhere... I already gave you two chances to attack me, and you failed in both..."

Saying that, Ashtel finally clenched his fist and spoke in a calm voice.

"It's my turn now... I want to enjoy this battle, so let's do it this way. I will only use my defensive skills and about 5% of my power... to deal with all 13 of you..."

"Otherwise, it would be over too quick, right..."

In that moment, Neo had realized that this battle that he was thinking was in his favor was actually an extremely unfair battle.

This battle where Ashtel has to fight the thirteen of them is actually too unfair for them thirteen instead!!

Ashtel is beyond their levels! They need another few dozen SS-rankers to actually stop Ashtel

now.

Before Neo could come up with a counter to this sudden turn of events, Ashtel's silhouette disappeared from his sight.

'Sh*t!'

[World Authority: Mana Flow!]

Neo used his mana flow to detect Ashtel, but as if Ashtel had gone completely invisible, Neo

couldn't sense him at all!

At that moment, his intuition was his only reliable ally.

'hmm! Sh*t he's going to hit that one!'

Although Neo realized it, it was just too late.

In that mere nanosecond, Ashtel appeared near an SS-rank puppet.

The puppet reacted by instinct and used its world authority to defend itself.

[World Authority. Bane of Light!]

The other party tried to turn his body into the photons of light to escape, but it was too late.

The other party's world authority was barely at level 1, it's currently even weaker than Jin's, thus it operates slowly and wastes a lot of mental energy.

Ashtel punch was faster.

[Sage Art: Shattered Fabric: Broken Cosmic Null!]

*BOOOM!**CRACK!!*

Just one punch from Ashtel was enough to directly smash a hole in the space-time fabric

itself!

The power in that punch was enhanced by a level 7 world authority!

The difference between each level of authority is extremely vast!! With each level, the efforts needed to improve become 10 times higher!

The gap between an individual with a level-1 authority and a level-7 authority is as big as the gap between a newborn child and a level-6 authority holder, SS Ranker!!

*BOOOM!*

A crack in the spacetime fabric spread out, and that SS-ranker died right there on the spot

from just one punch!

And this wasn't even the end-an extremely powerful gravitational wave, a shockwave that traveled through the space-time fabric itself, spread out in all directions!!

It was so fast and so powerful that the entire spire of Ascension started to tremble and show a

sign of cracking!

All the puppets nearby were pushed away by extreme gravitational waves; the crack in the

space-time fabric just kept spreading wide and wide!

"W-what did you do!! Why is that crack still expanding!?"

Neo was shocked beyond belief. Looking at that crack in the void, Ashtel shattered the space-

time fabric as if it were some fragile glass!

Usually, such cracks start healing and closing on their own, and it barely takes a few seconds.

But the crack that Ashtel created just kept expanding!

"Oh, this... I am actually doing it on purpose; I will use it to smash this entire 'Spire of

Ascension' to bits! Quite neat, isn't it?"

Neo gritted his teeth when he heard those words.

Just when he was about to say something else, a robotic voice was resounded in the entire

floor 100.

[ERROR! You are too big of a threat to the Spire of Ascension!]

[ERROR! The Spire of Ascension has been damaged!!]

[Ejecting the powerful threat!]

"Hoho, so now you want to eject me out after finding that I am too much for you?"

A gigantic portal opened below Ashtel's feet and tried to suck him inside; the portal looked

similar to the one that had brought him here in the first place.

"You want to eject me? But did I give you permission for it? Just shut up for a while..."

[World Authority: Shockwave!]

[Sage Art: Shattered Gap: Broken Order!]

Ashtel raised his fist and punched the space-time fabric around the portal!

*CRACK!!!*

With that attack, Ashtel shattered the portal into pieces and forcefully stopped it fromNôv(el)B\\jnn

teleporting him.

In fact, that punch created another shockwave that damaged the Spire of Ascension even

more! "Yeah, not stay silent like a good kid... I will leave on my own when I am done with my work; don't order me around..."

After becoming an SS-ranker, Ashtel has ever taken orders from only two people in the entire

human empire. The first was his wife; she asked him to protect Link and raise him well, and he agreed to it without daring to talk back.

The second person who dared to order him around was Riya; she was the only one who dared

to come forward to save Link when he was going too strict on training him and beating the

living day lights out of him.

Ashtel had already acknowledged Riya's courage when she tried to protect Link with her fragile body from a literal SS ranker!

Aside from these two people, Ashtel has never even thought about taking orders from others.

Ashtel doesn't believe in gods and origins; he doesn't care whether the spire of ascension gets

destroyed or not.

"Let's start, shall we?"

After shattering the portal and creating another massive crack in the spire of ascension,

Ashtel cracked his knuckles and glanced at the rest of the puppets with a smirk on his face.

"It's not every day I get to flex my powers so much; let me enjoy this a bit more... Try to survive as long as you can, for my entertainment, that is..."

If not for the fact that Neo was controlling their mind, those remaining eleven puppets would

have already started running with all their might after seeing that terrifying look on Ashtel's

face.

This battle that was supposed to be one-sided and extremely unfair for Ashtel became completely opposite.

This matchup of thirteen demigods against one was in fact still unfair for those thirteen

instead!!

Neo gritted his teeth but still didn't retreat though.

'I just need to hold him here for two more hours; one hour has already passed... Once two more

hours pass, my plan will succeed!'
