Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 1832: Helping Emil

Emil could clearly say that he had never received such a brutal beating in his life before. He was bleeding from all his face's orifices, his left eye was swollen, and several of his ribs had broken.

Manipulating the laws of physics allowed him to easily resist tremendous damage or even nullify it entirely, however, when it clashed against the Esper God's ability, it seemed as if it was unable to target something in specific.

Indeed, he had to use Mind Marble constantly to just stay alive and not explode into pieces, all while trying to fight. As he was very unexperienced, it was impossible for him to win against this entity in a fight of fists.

"It seems you're getting tired!"

The Esper God smashed Emil's face another time, sending him flying through the skies of the city and then landing over a tall tower-like building, a bank.

BOOOM!

As he slammed into the metallic walls and reached the bank's storage, countless starlight stones were blown away and started raining from the skies, the people gathered around celebrating, grabbing as many as they could.

"Uuggh...!"

Emil tried to make sense where he was, his Mind Marble acted by instinct, shaping the laws of physics around him to protect him from lethal damage once more.

"Hahh... Hahh..."

He was gasping in exhaustion, his brain was literally being fried the more he overused the power of Mind's Marble, he needed more experience and practice before using it for so long. "His powers are too much even for me..." he muttered. "I was able to free myself from his Mind Realm but... I lack the ability to fight like he does! If only I- No, I can't drag them into this... At the very least, I think they're safe. I should go far away, as far as I can so I can drag him with me!"

Emil was already thinking about his death, the Esper God was simply unstopable, however, their powers when clashing, would generate huge explosions.

He thought that it might be worth giving it a shot to go all-out, releasing all his psychic powers within him and attempt to blow up the Esper God.

Even if it means dying alongside it.

"It's the only way to save everyone from this monster...!"

His resolve was growing rapidly, even more when he knew that the thing he was fighting had killed his kind and stolen their psychic powers to grow stronger.

"There you are!"

And just as he made his resolve, he appeared, a man made of white and green light, with a larger form, and an even more muscular silhouette.

His hair had grown long, resembling dozens of rivers made of white light with green glow to them, constantly glowing.

His presence alone was clearly divine, he was a god among men.

"It seems you're hanging by your last thread," the Esper God spoke with a loud voice.

As he stepped into the building, his surroundings began to disintegrate into ashes and disappear rapidly.

"So? Have you reconsidered it now? Although I could kill you, your powers might even escape me after your death, so I was thinking we should solve this peacefully. Simply surrender your mind to me and become one with my soul and powers," the entity said. "Let us continue our endless ascension together, Emil! We shall bring despair and destruction to all those who have tortured and killed our kind!"

"..." Emil remained in silence. "Is there no other way?"

"Other way?! No!" said the Esper God. "There will never be another way! Only like that will I ever feel fulfilled! Will I ever feel like I have a purpose!"

"I know what you mean, I really do," Emil muttered.

"Then why do you keep resisting?!" the Esper God angrily asked.

"It's because... I think it's just wrong," said Emil. "These people... they're all living their own lives, you know? None of them knew of our tribe's suffering. They don't have any fault in this... they don't deserve to die. Nobody does, to be honest..."

"Why..." the Esper God asked. "Why are you so damn soft?! Is it because you were raised in that village?! With that people that treated you well? That helped you as you grew up?! Is it because of that?! You... simply don't harbor these emotions the rest of your kind has! You're not like them... Hah! You're not even pure-blooded, a mere hybrid!"

"I know..." nodded Emil. "And I rescued them all, and there's nothing that has made me so happy... My mom, I don't know where I'll ever find her but... I'm happy with jus this."

Emil shed a tear as he smiled back at the Esper God.

"I simply can't understand you..." the Esper God sighed.

"Me neither, I can't understand you," said Emil, standing up. "That's why..."

FLUOSH!

His Mind Marble expanded, suddenly no longer resembling a spherical marble but a cube with

sharp edges.

"That's why I have to stop you."

"And how are you planning on doing that, you pathetic twat?! You can't even move right now! and whatever you do to-"

"I've figured out something as I've felt my brain melting away the more I used my power. When I gather the force accumulated through manipulating physics, it creates a "leftover energy" of sorts," said Emil, smiling lightly. "Shall we give it a go?"

"Huh?"

FLASH!

Suddenly, a blue sphere appeared over Emil's hand.

"{Repulsion}"

TRUUUM!

"Ungh?!"

It was so fast the Esper God couldn't even react! In a mere second, he was hundreds of

kilometers away from the city.

The power of Repulsion Energy generated through the manipulation of physics within Mind's

Marble...

It was much more than he had ever thought possible!

"What did he...?!"

Emil appeared above him, bleeding from his nose, eyes, and ears.

"R-Re... Repulsion!"

"АААН!"

TRUUUM!

Before he could do anything else, the Esper God was pushed down into the dry lands beneath him, shattering the ground and leaving a gigantic crater.

BOOOMMM!!!

"Uuaaggh!"

He felt countless tiny cracks appear through his internal psychic body, which he rapidly began

to regenerate!

However, even then, he felt surprised.

"He can damage me to such an extent?!"

He gritted his teeth as he rapidly flew towards Emil, amassing psychic force into his fists until

they became gigantic.

"Die, you bastard!!!"

"Ugh...! Ah, I can't... move?!"

Emil realized too late that, as he fell, his psychic powers no longer responded.

"{Celestial Horizon Cleave}!"

CLAAANK!
