Hero of Darkness-Chapter 1006 Pulling the Curtain

The transition from the present Kahn to the future Kahn marked a significant power shift. The future Kahn showcased an array of new and spectacular skills, many of which surpassed the capabilities of the current Kahn.

Even with the various skills that had allowed Kahn to navigate through life-threatening situations in the past, he had not reached the level of overpowering his opponents with effortless one-shot attacks until this moment.

The battlefield became a showcase of unparalleled strength, with the future Kahn unveiling skills that surpassed even the creative imagination of his present self.

The discrepancy in power was evident, and the enemies faced an adversary whose abilities seemed to transcend the limitations of conventional understanding.

The Apostle of War mode proved to be overwhelmingly superior to Kahn's Asura and Shura modes. Future Kahn effortlessly dispatched the resurrected saints with single moves, displaying a level of mastery that made his opponents seem like amateurs. Despite the immense power exhibited, the future Kahn had not yet unleashed some of his most potent techniques, such as the Dimensional Cut.

Despite holding back, he effortlessly turned the tide of the battle, showcasing his dominance in combat.

The contrast between the current Kahn's approach to battling saints and the future Kahn's effortless dispatching highlighted the vast difference in combat prowess. While the current Kahn relied on a combination of abilities, strategic thinking, and various tactics, the future Kahn showcased the ability to eliminate opponents with a single move, seemingly disregarding conventional restrictions such as ranks, elemental affinity, and bloodlines.

It displayed the stark difference in combat and experience the future Kahn had along with the capacity to completely overwhelm his opponents in a fight where he was hugely outnumbered.

Kahn in his titanic form with a Wolf's head and Dragon Wings shifted his attention to the next saint called Neamon Stragvor, the 4-meter tall bare-chested brawler class warrior. This time, he simply pointed his palm towards the saint who flew in the sky 4 kilometers away.

"Get over here!" he commanded.

"And soon, despite being a 5th-stage saint himself, this brawler-class saint felt like his entire body was suppressed by an imaginable force.

"Argh!" he screamed in fear.

"Why can't I activate my domain?!" he exclaimed and looked at Anakin's direction.

"Activate your domain? Are you an idiot?

He is a 5th-stage saint himself who is providing his own world energy to keep you all alive and give you strength to fight.

On top of it, he is using his Divine Weapon which eats a Hero's Soul Essence.

Even as we speak, he is losing his levels and world energy drastically.

And on top of it, his Domain of Chronokinesis is also active." revealed future Kahn.

"This guy is expending so much of his energy that he can't even move from his place to assist any of you in this fight. Yet, you expect him to give you enough supplies to activate your domain?" explained Kahn.

This was the true reason why the Hero of Time was only watching from afar and not directly fighting Kahn despite seeing him obliterate his party members.

Using his domain and the divine weapon simultaneously had already constrained him to a degree that he was akin to an immovable object.

"And this is why you shouldn't have resurrected them, Gideon.

Using your Divine Weapon and Domain at the same time was already such an idiotic move. It's like you still haven't learned anything despite me beating you multiple times." said future Kahn in an admonishing tone.

"If only had you focused on fighting by yourself instead of relying on your allies in this timeline.

Besides, did you forget that I fought these losers and killed them the last time we battled?

The being that responded was none other than Kravel, the War Deity.

"So by now… the Hero of Time must be fighting the future Kahn." he stated.

"Correct. But I'm more concerned about the task he gave us before we sent him to the current Kahn of this timeline through the transcendent rune." said the God of Darkness solemnly.

"I have gotten Yama and Mors to accept 2 of the subordinates as their Apostle.

However, the Deities that could bless Armin and Rudra are mostly from the enemy camps who serve the God of Life and Goddess of Knowledge.

Originally, I wanted to propose Rudra as the main candidate to Mors.

But when I got there, he had already found Jugram who was far more suitable because of his bloodline." stated Kravel.

"I see. This seems like a better choice to me.

Rudra… I have no hopes for him anyway. He will either be useful or stay like an expendable pawn in the future while others become far stronger.

And he is no match for the Kahn of now no matter how noble his bloodlines are." spoke God of Darkness without much concern in his voice.

But next, God of Darkness smirked but his expression couldn't be seen because of the skull he had for a face…

"As for Armin… There is one deity though. She is most likely to take him as her apostle." he stated.

"She?

I do not think it will happen given how much she detests you, the Death itself." responded Kravel in an incredulous voice.

"Yes, I know. But she loves this world. Her genuine concern for saving the world far exceeds her hatred for me.

And did you forget about her falling out with the God of Nature 3 thousand years ago when we initiated the hero summoning for the first time?" stated God of Darkness.

"I remember. She was the only deity who opposed bringing humans from other worlds whose souls allowed them to become a Demi-God in our world.

Saying that they would break the great balance of life with their existence." replied Kravel.

"Yes. And after how close we are to nigh destruction, she will be forced to act up in the form of choosing Armin as her apostle, especially since he is a walking-talking personification of both nature and sentient plant species." spoke God of Darkness in a devious tone.

"Make use of her desperation." he spoke and commanded Kravel.

"As you say, my Liege… I will contact Demeter." he responded and bowed.

Finally, when Kravel was about to leave…

"What do you think will be the result of the conflict?" asked God of Darkness.

"Between Kahn and Hero of Time?" asked Kravel.

"No, Between Kahn and… Kahn." spoke God of Darkness.

"Because in the end, whether it is the Future Kahn or the Current Kahn..." said God of Darkness with a bemused and sinister tone.

"Only one will remain."
