SSS Ranked Shadow Monarch: Summoning Infinite Shadows-Chapter 199: Storm

It didn’t take a second for Geisha to realize that something had gone wrong, and Aren had done something. He frowned.

"Illusion," he called out, then he felt it, a powerful gathering of soul energy behind him.

He turned around only to see Aren in the air, coming with a slash with the dagger of Jotnar.

"Flo, thank you. I stand a chance because of you." He said his appreciation to Flo, but she was already knocked out cold after creating an illusion that was powerful enough to trick Geisha.

A few moments ago, Aren was genuinely lost for what to do. He had thought of so many ways to get out of this, but none worked in his mind. He knew this would most definitely be the end.

Then Flo gave him a solution, a way out. As a guardian spirit with the ability of illusions, she was powerful enough to create massive illusions that could trick towns and cities, but when it came to Geisha, not only would she have to trick his eyes, but every other sense, down to his instinct and soul.

To pull this off, she had to use the riskiest part of her abilities. She had to twist reality. This was no simple illusion, no, she had to actually change what was real into what wasn’t.

Doing this, and ensuring that Geisha couldn’t see through it, completely exhausted her, throwing her into a state of coma after she was done.

Aren held all gratitude for her. If it wasn’t for her, this would have been for sure the end.

Geisha looked at Aren, filled with rage. He roared, "You think anything that you can do will harm me?" He bellowed, the air shaking.

"No, not one bit, and that’s why you aren’t my target." Aren said with a calm expression, then his face shifted into full concentration.

"Huh? What the hell are you blabbering about?"

"This," Aren replied. "Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He let out a thunderous roar as he slashed with the dagger of Jotnar, putting every single bit of soul energy that he could muster into that attack.

Instantly, the blade ripped the space right behind Geisha, a rip that spanned for fifty meters instantly. Buildings instantly got uprooted from a distance and started getting pulled into the tear in space.

Geisha turned around, he felt the pull of the tear. He looked at it, he finally understood the plan Aren had. That tear instantly caused multiple tears to start forming all around, more tears ripping through the space, instantly causing a spatial collapse of insane magnitude.

This created a spatial storm, rips forming, things getting pulled into the void, distortions happening, everything was getting twisted.

Even for someone like Geisha, this would be an issue, especially at his current strength.

He looked up at Aren. "This is suicide, you’ll die as well," Geisha stated.

"Yeah, but I’d have caused you a great deal of harm when it’s done," Aren said.

"You brat," Geisha said in anger and tried to lunge, but his movements caused even more spatial distortions, cracks and more, one even happening right on his body.

Slash!

It cut through his skin, blood gushed out, but the wound healed almost instantly.

"There is no escaping now," Aren said, but the next moment he also felt a very powerful pull, one so strong he wouldn’t be able to get away from. It was coming from one of the cracks.

"Shit," Aren cursed. He instantly tried to summon a shadow that would go ahead and then he would switch with, but the tears and cracks consumed them too.

While he was standing there, Geisha decided that he would still get Aren regardless, so he took his first step and a hundred massive cuts appeared all over his body instantly. They healed instantly, but another set replaced them.

Aren looked at this in shock. Was Geisha that serious to get him? Fear started creeping in on Aren, but he gritted his teeth and resolved his mind.

"I’ll let you have me." He said. His tendrils burst out of the ground, but they were ripped apart by the space. Still he refused, using more and more until two finally wrapped around him and shot him into the air.

A crazy amount of slashes tore through Aren’s body. He was instantly losing tons of blood, and to make matters worse, Geisha shot after him, also getting ripped up badly, far worse than what Aren was facing, but he ignored it all, eyes on Aren. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Aren could sense him coming, so he clenched his jaw, ignored the pain, turned in the air and locked eyes with Geisha, and then unleashed another slash with the dagger.

That was the final blow. Space collapsed into itself as all the rips and cracks connected, creating a space storm entangled with the void, and right at the center was Geisha.

Aren thought he had done it. ’I’ll make it out,’ he said in his mind, only for him to feel the pull of the storm like a black hole.

"Shit, shit, shit." He cursed as he started thinking of ways to break free, but nothing was working and he was getting pulled back into it.

’Shit, so nothing works now. I can’t stop it, no ground to use my tendrils, I lack the soul energy to use the hammer, I’ve lost all momentum.

I just have to use all my defense and tank it, maybe I survive.’

He shut his eyes, preparing for the worst, but then a hand grabbed him. He opened his eyes, only to see Aiden there, along with Zero and Elena. Zero created a platform for them to stand on, Elena was doing her best to counter the gravity of the storm, and Aiden, he reached in and grabbed Aren.

"What’s up bro, we came to check on you," Aiden said.

"I don’t think I’ve ever been this happy to see someone before," Aren said.

"Save that for when you take me out," Aiden said with a chuckle and pulled Aren onto the platform.

Elena immediately fought the gravity more, while Zero pushed them away from it.
