Odyssey of the Blind God

Chapter 757 Fated Fight (4/10)



The lofty walls of the Divine hall were half-destroyed. 

In some parts, it was hard to tell whether a wall even existed in the first place. The same could be said about what was inside the walls.

The space above and around was distorted, looking totally different from before. Cracks in space could be seen everywhere in the Divine Domain.

If someone else from the Universe were to see this palace, they would be utterly dumbfounded.

Everyone would have expected a fierce battle to have taken place, but the reality was bound to surpass their wildest imaginations. 

Thus, even if someone would have wanted to help Nial in the battle, the problem was \'how\'.

Everyone participating in the Second Great War was a powerhouse, who was amongst the strongest in the Universe. Despite that, only a few would be able to follow Nial and the Advocate\'s movements.

But being in a secluded space nobody could enter even if someone wanted, nobody witnessed the terrific battle between the two powerhouses.

Another explosion erupted nearby, and the ground continued to rumble from their simple clash. 

\'What should I do?\' Nial was in a tricky situation.

He unleashed the vast majority of his power, knowing that he had to defeat the Advocate soon.

However, even now it felt as if the Advocate wasn\'t giving her all. She evaded his attacks easily. It was almost as if she could see where he was heading even before he knew where he was about to go.

Nial grit his teeth as he continued to give his all.

But the Advocate did not seem fazed in the slightest.

She and Nial had been fighting constantly for several hours, yet she didn\'t show any signs of being exhausted. 

There had been a few instances in which the Advocate had been astonished, or even shocked, but that was already it. Her protection barrier was still fully erupted.

Even then, it didn\'t feel as if the Advocate was getting stronger as their fight progressed. It was only that Nial felt as if he was fighting against an endless stream. His opponent was solid, yet, he couldn\'t hit her properly.

His attacks hit either nothing or their trajectory was diverted. It was frustrating, but not something Nial could change just because he was annoyed.

\'I cannot break through her evasive movements. I only need one fully empowered attack to finish her, but I cannot get close enough, forget about hitting her…\'

Nial was not too worried about his stamina. He was still doing fine because he had more than enough energy to use. However, that didn\'t prevent him from worrying a bit.

\'...I have only one trump card left…\' 

Nial didn\'t think that he could use Dominion right now. Using his only trump card, Dominion\'s full power after it had been enhanced with Psy\'s accumulated power of centuries, would lead to a devastating loss as of this moment.

He had to find an opportunity in the everlasting battle he fought. If he were to take a look at it from a long-term perspective, he had more than enough time left. Nonetheless, he was not too sure how long he could keep his Cursed Divinity fully unleashed. 

Furthermore, he was in the territory of the Advocate. That didn\'t make things easier for him. On the contrary, it brought him quite some problems. The divine energy in the Divine Hall was abundant and it could be absorbed by the Divine Goddess. 

She replenished her used-up divine energy rather easily using the divine energy in the air.

Nial thought of absorbing the divine energy in this place as well, but he recalled the incident with the Divine God of Truth. That was enough to restrain him from attempting to use Devour and the Heart of Gluttony to devour divine energy and turn it into reinforced dark energy.

If it worked out well, he would be much stronger than he was right now, regaining some of his former combat prowess. However, if the Goddess of the Divine Eye schemed something evil in her domain, Nial may actually end up in a worse position.

It was high risk with low rewards, something Nial would rather avoid if possible. He could devour his body and life force to create darkness. That was more cost-efficient than touching the Advocate\'s stuff.

Seemingly as if she was trying to mock him, the Divine Goddess began to use her Divinity as well.

Precisely, it was the first time that Nial could actually feel her using her Divinity. She may have been using it passively all the time to evade his attacks easier but Nial just didn\'t notice it. However, now that she actively used her Divinity, big changes occurred on the battlefield.

The Divine Goddess\' movements turned razor sharp and she counterattacked even before Nial issued his attacks. It was quite obvious that she could predict his attacks even before he made the move.

\'Prediction? Clairvoyance? Or can she just deduct my movements from the way my muscles react? What is it?\' 

Nial wanted to figure out the Divinity of the Divine Goddess, or precisely the special powers of her eyes. From his own experience, Nial could tell that the golden eye was an enhanced version of the silver eye. With the silver eye, he could see the circulation of mana. Precisely, it was possible to see all types of energies as long as they were in his sight of vision.

The golden eye could see the innate potential of any being and a few more pieces of information about them. The additional information was always different. That being said, Nial was not sure if the Divine Goddess could see the same, or if it was a little different.

Her Divinity should be stronger, especially since she used divine energy to empower them.

The Advocate was already at an advantage, so what was she trying to do by using her Divinity? Was it really necessary? Did she want to end the battle right now? 

Nial was not sure, after all, the Advocate\'s combat style didn\'t change much, if one was to ignore the sharpness in her movements.

But there was one thing that irked him.

\'If she has my eyes…are they not totally flawed?!?\'
