Chapter 82: The Archer Of Nullification!

Project: INFERNO


(Onara and Zakato was then continuing their fight after a few minutes has passed.)
"Kazuya: She's holding her own!"
"Shibuto: You can do it Onara!"
(Onara continued to battle Zakato's nullification attacks. She then began strategizing how to counter his arrows.)
"Onara(Thinking): His arrows are Nullification.. They can cancel any void attack I throw at him. I can't roll the dice and risk hand to hand combat, no matter how skilled I am with my polearm his defenses are flawless. If I can time it, I could nullify his arrows back..."
(Zakato's bow strings began glowing and he squinted his eyes to pinpoint Onara's exact location. He then quickly drew three dark aura colored arrows which was homing on Onara.)
"Zakato: Darkened Cleve!"
(Onara slid back from the arrows and noticed they was homing in on her. She then quickly drew her katana and quick slashed the three arrows in half, the aura dying on all three.)
"Onara: Not a pretty bad trick there, homing arrows? Two can play at that game..."
(Onara's ten lances then homed each other on Zakato which triggered his defenses and aimed for his bow. Onara then gripped the handle of her katana to time the incoming strike.)
"(Thinking): I can't resort to any void attacks for the time being, if I can break his nullification, I can win this fight! Thankfully, all that training actually paid off, I know one attack that can cancel any special ability.."
(She then remembered what Gaito taught her a few days ago.)
-One week ago-
"Gaito: This ability can only work if your opponent is a nullifier. You need to center into your soul and chain it completely. Instead of letting your soul erupt with elemental power, lock the power inside it and you will become absolutely immune to nullification. Well, to a specific element you will be. Since you're a void elemental, I can guarantee it'll surpass any nullification attack."
-Present-
(Onara then focused deeply and sees her own soul with a raging black aura which is her void power. She then seals it shut which the black aura expanded around her soul and around her body on the outside. Zakato fired another homing arrow which suddenly then engulfed in black flames and dissolved after reaching Onara.)

"Zakato: Elemental Armor?!"
"Onara: Seems like the timing was just right, your special ability is pretty good against an elemental user... But the nullifying effect from your arrows are finished against me now!"
(Onara rockets herself towards Zakato with both her polearm and katana, striking at fast speeds which Zakato tries to counter by thinking and defending at the same time. Onara then lands a direct hit on Zakato and slashed his bow in half, the crack from the wood snapping being heard across the arena. She then sheathed her katana and placed her polearm on her shoulder.)
"Out of respect, I will let you concede. Nullification is your only elemental power, without that bow its useless if you don't know any other weapon to combat with."
"Zakato: You are right, Empress Shiori. This bow was my own weapon and without it, I am vulnerable... You have won this bout fair and square, I hereby concede!"
(He bowed to Onara out of respect as Choryrth calls the match a win for Onara. The spectators then continued to boo at Onara out of biasedness. Shibuto and Kazuya heard the audience.)
"Kazuya: QUIT BEING SORE LOSERS! YOU HAVE TO GIVE THAT BOW GUY CREDIT! HE MANAGED TO LAST A GOOD WHILE AGAINST ONARA!"
"Spectator #2: OH SHUT IT KID! YOU FANBOY!"
"Spectator #3: SCREW OFF!!!"
(The boos was becoming more and more obnoxious until Choryrth forced the dark skies to clap a massive boom of thunder which silenced everyone in the arena.)
"Choryrth: SILENCE! All of you and your ignorance shall cease, this is a time of combat for honor! Not some pettiness over Onara's victory! Zakato, you have fought well. I guarantee you will become stronger in the future.)
(Zakato bowed to Choryrth with a thank you.)
"Zakato: I thank you, Mr. Lord Choryrth!"
(He then went to the sidelines as the ring was cleaned from the debris and cracks.)
"Choryrth: Let the next challenger come to the ring!"
(Meanwhile in a far away dimension, ripples of the cosmos was showing as scattered debris was floating across the endless abyss. In a a nearly destroyed universe lasted only two remaining planets where explosions was coming from an opposing planet which was eighty percent relevant to Earth. One individual was blasted afar and stood on his feet, still eager to fight but was covered with blood, scars and several wounds and was missing his right eye and left arm.)

"???: I enjoyed our time together in this everlasting fight, but I'm afraid... You unfortunately do not match the strength of my soon-to-be-found archrival. Even if you were to go all out and attacked me with every single attack and ability you had, it would only weaken your stamina and elemental mana. Such a shameful example of desperation for justice and peace."
(The remaining defending fighter whom was named Amaruta Kawaromao then walked towards the exact individual which Goxius saw past his time orb and gripped his bloody right hand and generated his hand into steel claws.)
"Amaruta: Even... IF.. I'm not a match against you... EVEN IF YOU TRY DESTROYING THIS DIMENSION..! I WILL FIGHT UNTIL MY FINAL BREATH YOU MONSTER!!!"
"???: Is that so...? Oh.. How pitiful if you believe you can save your own home at this point. The damage I've caused is far than catastrophic, you had your chance to save not just your family, your home or your friends... You had the opportunity to save your master, your lovely wife and this dimension while you were at it. I killed the others, sure. But to think you could defeat me, you and your second-rate fighters while the top fighters of this very dimension was wiped out without even breaking a sweat! The way even your own lovable master died was SO pathetically dishonoring... Shall I tell you about it, Amaruta?"
"Amaruta: SHUT UPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
(Amaruta ran then pounces towards him which the humanoid did not bother moving but then said two words towards Amaruta.)
"???: PAIN INFLICTION!"
(Suddenly without lifting a finger, Amaruta collapsed to the ground which large streaks of cuts opening and bean spewing blood out of the wounds. All fighters in the dimension was killed by the humanoid's unmatchable power. He then leaves Amaruta dying without a last word.)
"Knitemare: It appears you do not understand who I am... I'm known as the Elemental Lord. You expect me to waste my time with you? A second-rate delinquent who rushes into a battle without recognizing your own foe? Before you perish into endless darkness, let my name curse you for eternity as long as your soul survives... My name is KNITEMARE. Now.. down comes the curtains for the final breath of this entire dimension shall be eradicated from the cosmos..."
(Knitemare raised his hand to the sky which he then generated the massive, blinding ball of light which was combined with every elemental power he has then warped himself to the far outside of the dimension and launched the elemental orb at the remains. The blinding light then expands even bigger than it was last time and explodes the entire dimension from existence, Knitemare had a displeased look on his face and counted more destroyed dimensions, universes, galaxies, solar systems and so on. He then rocketed himself to the next nearby dimension for another fight.)
