Chapter 499: You look good
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
Another layer suddenly appeared around the beast and it was again unable to move at all, it kept releasing loud cries and throwing attacks madly towards Jayden.
And it was impossible for Jayden to dodge any of those attacks as he completely focussed his mind on manipulating time, in such a short time almost a quarter of his energy was sucked away and he managed to reverse the time by over fifty years, the area that was being affected by it was kept getting shorter and the centre of it was the Empty beast.
Its body was going through many phases in an unnatural way, the energy being released was too much to handle for this world and since Jayden couldn’t control it fully yet so cracks extended to all over it and it looked like that this world was getting injured.
Even the energy was slightly leaking out of it, but Jayden paid no attention to any thing else and soon brought the area of effect to only ten meters around the demon.
*BOOM* *BOOM*
The mountain and big rocks around began to explode, then the Empty beast suddenly released an attack aimed towards Jayden which directly hit his chest and even devoured his heart.
” COUGH COUGH ”
He coughed out several mouthfuls of blood and could feel that if nothing was done soon then his body would stop functioning and it wouldn’t be long before his life left his body.
Because of the last attack even his energy was suddenly reduced to only a little more than a quarter of his entire internal energy, his eyes were slowly closing on their own, but using the last of his concentration he kept reducing the age of the demon and after some more minutes the beast could no longer release any attack, Jayden slowly floated towards the beast and looked at it with his barely opened eyes.
Around its gaseous body physical body slowly began to appear, and its age had been reduced by more than a hundred years as it fell on the ground and soon became unconscious.
After a few more minutes, the demon finally had a physical body so Jayden stopped using his time ability and arrived near it, he couldn’t even see it properly and just took out a sword from his spatial ring after which he covered it with Nether flames and then he directly plunged it into the head of the demon.
*BANG*
As the demon was killed a loud explosion sounded, and Jayden was thrown back as he finally fell unconscious and lost all the sensation of his body.
After that Jayden also fell unconscious and from his arm the tattoo came to life as Eve tried to wake him up but after sensing that he was fine and his body was again regenerating she finally relaxed and looked towards the body of the beast.
Then she walked over to it and after staring at the Empty beast’s body for a few seconds two jelly like hands appeared out of its body and without much effort it tore open the body of the beast, then it pulled the heart out and devoured it.
Right now the entire Nether World was completely silent, the cracks that had formed all over it were still there and the Nether World seemed to be injured.
Eve’s body also began to change drastically she hastily returned to Jayden’s body and also fell unconscious over his chest, they both could no longer feel what was going on around them.
Jayden body had also started healing by now, his body parts had started to grow, and the effects of nothingness disappeared as soon as the empty demon was killed.
Time passed and after an unknown amount of time, Eve woke up and she saw that Jayden was still unconscious so she began to tap on his chest with her soft jelly like hands while calling out to him.
” KIU KIU KIUUU ”
Under Eve’s constant calling, Jayden finally began to open his eyes he looked down at Eve and caressed her head.
” I’m fine, don’t worry. Looks like we were able to come out of it alive. ” Jayden said as his head fell back, and he sighed in relief.
Even though Jayden had not noticed it yet but using the Time Manipulation had also changed his body, after taking in a few long breaths he sat up and looked around the Purple world which seemed to be in a really bad condition.
” I think it will be fine after some time, it seems to be healing on its own. ” Jayen mumbled and stood up, Eve also looked excited for some reason more than normal as she jumped on his head and shoulders.
Then he looked towards the dead body of the Empty beast but now there was nothing there, not even the gaseous body, he couldn’t understand what happened so he looked at Eve with a questioning gaze while asking:
” What happened to that beast? Have you already eaten its heart? ”
” Kiuuu kieeu ”
After she responded Jayden nodded his head and decided to check her new transformation later, now he wanted to let this world heal so he opened a portal and just as he was about to walk through it he heard Anna’s voice in his head.
” Wait you… Jayden you look nice. Anyway, you did great, I’m sure that soon your pet will become much more stronger, and… You really look good. ” She said and fell silent, Jayden couldn’t understand what she meant but he just said:
” Thank you? ”
Not paying much mind to her words, he began to walk out of the portal, he arrived back into Murim’s world he floated in the air and began to fly in Hecate’s direction, while flying he checked his body’s condition.
” Nothing seems to be wrong but I only have half of my total energy, I guess it is to be expected after such a long battle and so many injuries. ” He mumbled and slowly began to fly in the air while talking with Eve, both of them were quite excited by the new ability Eve would be able to use soon.
Hecate was sitting on a tree branch, Jayden had placed a couple of arrays around her so no demon would be able to sense her presence and he was sure that if a demon really found her then she must have some way to defend herself.
” It has been so long, I have a bad feeling about this I knew it he shouldn’t have faced that beast, it was still too strong for him to handle. ” Hecate mumbled, she had stayed at this place for over two days, and there were yet no signs of Jayden coming back.
She had expected the worst to happen and regretted that she had not stopped Jayden earlier from fighting that beast.
” If he didn’t return in an hour then I’ll go and check, though I hope that he could survive this. ” She mumbled and stared into the distance.
After a few more minutes had passed, Hecate could finally feel someone approaching her at not so fast pace, she finally sighed in relief after sensing that it was really Jayden.
