The World Serpent

In the Vast Void of Space, The Demon Serpent floated and gazed upon the World from afar. It has been a while since it exited the Atmosphere of the Continent. The Fight between it and the World was currently on hold as the Demon Serpent saw a Notification Window in front of its sight. Ego was also curious about the Notification Window, so the two of them started reading it.

\'I see... So this is the Three Plans.\' The Demon Serpent thought to itself while gazing on the Notification Window. The Monotone Voice of Ego also echoed within the Demon Serpent\'s mind.

<From the Three Plans, It is clear what plan we should use for dealing with the World.> 

[Plan One: Destruction of the Continent of Debilis. By destroying the Continent, The Enemy might get terminated during the Destruction of the Continent, which will solve the Current Problem of the User. The Power needed to destroy the Continent is dependant on the Energy within the User. There is a possibility that most User\'s Energy will get absorbed for the Continent of Debilis to get destroyed.]

[Plan Two: The Introduction of Hellfire. With the Hellfire Skill and Other Astral Related Skills, It might be possible for the User to harm the Real Body of the World. It might not terminate the World, but it could force it to stay outside the Continent for Years to come. Such is a good plan if the User doesn\'t want to destroy the Continent of Debilis.]

[Plan Three: Tactical Retreat. The User can retreat if needed as there is no reason for the Heir to stay within the Continent of Debilis. The World wouldn\'t be able to enter the Realm of Piksyon, which would be enough for the User to go stronger and find ways to eliminate the World.]

The Three Plans were simple. One was a Complete Elimination, The Other was a Knock-Out, and the Last One was a Retreat. For Ego and Persia, The Complete Elimination in exchange for the Continent of Debilis would defeat the purpose. Retreating was also not a good way as Persia wouldn\'t accept it. With the two choices out of the way, It seemed that Ego and Persia only had one plan for them. 

\'Let\'s go with Plan Two. Do you agree, Ego?\' The Demon Serpent thought as it wanted its partner\'s approval. Seconds passed by as the World finally took its gazed towards the Two of them. Ego\'s monotone voice echoed within the Demon Serpent\'s mind as it replied. 

<Plan Two is agreeable. There is no need to eliminate the World. Giving ourselves time will result in good favors.> 

From the agreement of Ego, It seemed that the two of them would go with the Second Plan. The Agreement of the Two got detected by the System. A New Notification then appeared in front of their sights near instantly after their agreement. The two of them looked upon it as they started reading it.

[Plan Two accepted.]

[Proceeding for Planning Details.]

[Step 1: Increased of the User\'s Power.]

[Step 2: Optimization of the User\'s Skills.]

[Step 3: Bring out the Full Power.]

\'The detailed plan?\' The Demon Serpent found itself confused though Ego already guessed what the System was trying to say. It was a simplification of what they should do. It applied to the Astral Skills they had. Ego noticing such simple things gave her the best conclusion about the current plan. She then spoke with her monotone voice. 

<The Plan might be simple.>

<Step 1: Activation of Augmentation Skill.>

<Step 2: Using the Best Astral Skills we have.>

<Step 3: Using all of our Energy.> 

From Ego\'s explanation, The Demon Serpent nodded in understanding as it set its sights towards the World. With the plan in mind, it released its thoughts. \'I guess we should start.\' It then slithered towards the World under the Vast Void of Space. The Talk of Ego and the Demon Serpent almost happened instantly. It meant that nothing had changed while they talked to each other.

The World noticed the Demon Serpent and released its distorted voice. 

*Feel my Full Power!!!*

The Vast Void of Space started to distort and released Silver Lightning Bolts. A Strange Portal was opening which led to a Realm unknown yet known to the Demon Serpent. It was the Astral Realm, which was a Strange Realm according to Statera. An Opposite Side of the Material Realm, which had no limits. It was where the Soul Cores, Gods, and the World Cores resided. 

The Demon Serpent and Ego could see a glimpse of the World through the Portal. Everything was perfect for the plan. The only thing they needed to do was to activate it. With such thoughts in mind, Ego and the Demon Serpent began Operation Knock-out. Their thoughts rapidly accelerated, which caused every skill and cell of their body to get micromanaged. 

\'Activate, Augementation.\' The Demon Serpent thought to itself as its Silver Body started shining with Silver Light. The Augmentation increased the Demon Serpent\'s Power by a Thousand though it was temporary. With the increase of the Demon Serpent\'s Power, Ego then activated the Astral Related Skills. 

<Activation of Skills, Hellfire, Elemental Manipulation, Heaven\'s Chains, Disassemble, and Dominion Authority.>

After the Monotone Voice of Ego reported the Skills within the Demon Serpent\'s mind, A Sharp Pain throbbed within the Demon Serpent\'s Body. \'Ah!!!\' The Demon Serpent couldn\'t help but release a sharp scream. Despite its high-pain resistance, It wondered why it could feel pain. The Answer then echoed within the Demon Serpent\'s body. 

<Each of the Skills spoken has been augmented by a Thousand.> The Answer of Ego was clear, and the Demon Serpent nodded in understanding. The Demon Serpent continued to slither towards the World as the Astral Portals kept surrounding the Demon Serpent and attacking it with Silver Lightning Bolts. 

The Demon Serpent calmly dodged the Silver Lightning Bolts though it seemed that avoiding everything was near impossible. With Ego and the Demon Serpent holding their skills, It was impossible to use other Skills for defending the Demon Serpent. It resulted in the Demon Serpent getting bombarded with the Silver Lightning Bolts. 

One would wonder, The Demon Serpent has its Elemental Nullification Skill. Why would it be afraid of the World\'s Silver Lightning Bolts? The Answer was Clear. The Silver Lightning Bolts weren\'t elemental attacks; It was an Astral One. \'Tsk.\' The Demon Serpent thought to itself as its Soul was getting punched and kicked by the Silver Lightning Bolts. 

\'This Bastard.\' The Demon Serpent wanted to rip the World into shreds, but it knew that it couldn\'t. The only thing it could do was knock the World out and retreat. The Demon Serpent continued slithering through the Chaotic Void of Space full of Astral Portals. Silver Lightning Bolts kept hitting its body as it felt its Soul getting ripped apart by each hit. 

Then an unexpected notification appeared in front of its sight.

[You have gained Skill, Inferior Astral Resistance.]

[You have increased your Proficiency with Inferior Astral Resistance.]

[Inferior Astral Resistance(0/10)-> Inferior Astral Resistance(7/10)]

The Demon Serpent gained a new skill that was named Astral Resistance. It was a Defensive Skill that it needed. Notifications continued to appear on the Demon Serpent\'s sight. The Silver Lightning Bolts efficiently increased the proficiency of the Astral Resistance. The Demon Serpent smirked to itself as it continued slithering within the Chaotic Void. 

The World gazed upon the Demon Serpent from afar as it found itself confused. Why was the Demon Serpent still moving despite it being it with thousands of Silver Lightning Bolts? Was it Astral Defence High? It questioned itself though that didn\'t mean anything as it was impossible for the Demon Serpent to kill the World. 

The World was prideful as it was a World Core. A World itself. A Puny Foreign Serpent wouldn\'t be enough to kill or destroy it. The Battle in front of it was merely something it wanted to do since it got bored during the Centuries that passed. But the World then detected something strange. The Demon Serpent was a Thousand Times powerful than before. 

\'Checkmate.\' The Demon Serpent thought as Ego folded the Space in front of it. The Demon Serpent then opened its jaw as the Skills within itself started to create an Orb of Light. The Orb of Light got surrounded with Chains and Hellfire as it then compressed every skill to itself. The Dominion Authority kept the Orb of Light from hurting the Demon Serpent, while Disassemble was for the Skills to fuse. 

The Orb of Light then propelled itself out of the Demon Seprent\'s jaw. It hit the Space Wall created by the Space Fold. The Orb of Light continued pushing through as the Space Wall bent under its force. The Space Wall broke apart as the Space Fold deactivated by the Orb of Light already got through the Space Wall, which made its Energy spread across the Space that got folded. 

The Pure Silver White Energy spread across the Vast Void of Space. It entered through the Astral Portal, which caused the World to scream.

*AHHHHHH!!!*

To the inhabitants of Debilis, The only thing they could see in the Dark Night Skies was a Silver White Nebulae.. A Beautiful One that covered the Twinkling Stars and shone over the Continent.
