Chapter 1191 - Just Seconds Are Enough!
Those that Noah Osmont lay claim to...could not be touched!
This was an unwritten rule that everybody knew and followed in the Infinite Cosmos, but there were outside of it that didn't know.
Far from Primordial Empire where a shocking battle was beginning for Noah's first Writ of Challenge, in the Novus Universe of the Infinite Cosmos.
Noah's Universal Body was floating in space as he gazed at the glimmering Galaxies before him and a huge illusory screen, a woman lying beside him and gazing at this same scene!
Before them was an enormous illusory screen the size of a world that showed all of the events currently occurring in the Cosmic Battlefield, the woman beside Noah intently staring at everything occurring.
Her skin was a dark cream and glistening resplendently in the starry space, her smooth flowing dark hair falling even on Noah's chest that was filled with billions of Galaxies as her hands were currently tracing the pectoral muscles of this Universal Body as she spoke.
"I haven't seen you get that angry for me yet." Her voice came out in a pouting manner as shockingly, the Inquisitor Athena, the War Princess that was the future weapon of the Celestials in Noah's past Novus Galaxy...this young woman was actually pouting before Noah!
It was, of course, her main body and not the clones that she and all the others had sent to experience new lands and fight in the Primordial Empire.
At such a scene, even Noah could not help but smile as he traced his galaxy colored fingers over her hair and spoke out mesmerizingly.
"Senior Sister, not many have been able to get the jump on you with your {Precognition}. And we only just got back weeks ago after all that mess."
Noah's voice seemed to be reminiscing as when the events of the Celestials concluded, he and Athena had become estranged as he didn't know how to proceed with her who had been an enemy before, but she was someone that he had made his!
After months passed and from the push of Barbatos, Noah worked on his relationships as his and Athena's was one of the first to fix, forgoing what occurred in the past and focusing on who they were now as they returned to their relationship of Junior Brother and Senior Sister.
"Mmm, I'll see if I can draw attention to myself more like Sis Barbatos so I can be the damsel in distress next time." Athena spoke with a light smile as she gazed into Noah's galactic eyes and continued. "How does the strength of this Daolord and the one that is about to move measure up?"
The eyes of the War Princess flashed with intense light as under her {Precognition} ability, she already saw Daolord Ray moving even before Noah and the others did!
At such a question, Noah's eyes became sharp as he answered lightly.
"Maybe it would have taken me a few minutes to take care of them if it was the me of just a few days ago. But now? Even a few seconds are enough!"
RUMBLE!
His voice rang out in a domineering fashion as Athena had a bright smile appear on her face, the happiness not being capable of being hidden as this War Princess had long since returned to her King!
---
Back in the Cosmic Battlefields where the fist of Daolord Ilyad was stopped by Noah's single palm.
Because of her actions of targeting a woman that was claimed by Noah, this Daolord was about to learn a painful lesson!
BZZZT!
Ruination and Primordial Essence vibrated intensely in the surroundings, Runic Tattoos lighting up on Noah's right hand as they shone with a gorgeous multicolored glow.
Noah's palm closed in on the fist he held as his expression flashed with a trace of coldness and brutality, immensely powerful barriers of a Daolord being broken as an instant later, the cracking of bones resounded as Daolord Ilyad stared at her hand in shock and disbelief.
Her finger bones were gradually becoming disfigured as she actually stared at them in shock, the voice of Daolord Ray resounding in her ears as he very quickly appeared beside them!
"Ilyad!"
THRUM!
His figure tore through the veil as he appeared right above Noah, a fist pulsating with rapidly rotating Runic Dao Tattoos thundering towards Noah's head as it wished to pulverize it into a mass of brain matter!
Yet…
Noah raised his other hand above him as his palm released a shocking force that absorbed the strike of the Daolord, his palm enclosing on the fist of Daolord Ray as well as his arms moved to bring both of these beings before his eyes.
…!
Silence!
Silence pervaded the surroundings after such a scene as when a second passed, people truly began to comprehend the fact that Daolord Osmont had seamlessly not just stopped the strike of a single Daolord, but two of them and at the same time as he didn't even look like he broke a sweat!
"This…"
Azazel felt a chill in his heart as he recalled what he felt when he faced this being initially, his senses having saved him as his power was on par with Ilyad and Ray, and yet they were being matched in a terrifying fashion right now!
Far away from him on the seats where Daolords and Antiquities from the House of Stormdust were sitting in, the bodies of nearly all of them rose in somberness as they stared closely at the scenes within the Cosmic Battlefield.
Only a single being remained seated, and it was a being that nobody would expect to actually attend a Writ of Challenge such as this that held the low stakes of a single Cosmos.
It was someone known throughout all the factions of the Primordial Empire, someone that had the title of Forefather as they were just below the Family Heads in ranking!
It was Forefather Julius that had passed on the message from the Family Head that Ray and Ilyad would be ones that Daolord Osmont would choose, and also the one that had told them to be careful.
He had warned them and wanted them to take the warning seriously, and of course he took this warning even more seriously himself as someone of his stature actually came to watch whatever unfolded at today's stage!
A being that deserved a word of caution from the Family Head was someone that Forefather Julius had to pay attention to, and his thoughts were affirmed as he watched the shocking scene playing out before him.
It was the shocking start of the first Writ of Challenge in recent years!
