Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse Chapter 206

Chapter 206 - Unruly!
Agares worked hard to reign in his mind as he carefully looked at the appearance of the powerful figures of the same level as him without making any moves. Just the six of them at the PHANTASMAL level meant they held more power than those at the same level in the Demon World at this point in time.
If they were brutal enemies with the mindset to kill, not many of them would be escaping death today. Agares began tasting the waters carefully while sending messages to all the Rulers in the Demon World to not make the first move as the results would be catastrophic for them. He was sending even more messages to Barbatos as she would have the most answers, but he was getting nothing in return. Frustration was in his heart as he began carefully.
"I welcome Esteemed Guests to the Demon World. May this old man know how he can be of help?"
His wings were spread out as his powerful voice resounded out from the capital. The Demons that heard it felt shame while Noah just looked down impassively, his mind working on many things as he recalled all the locations of the many names of the Rulers he had in mind. Multiple skills began to activate, but [Persuasion] was at the forefront as he began speaking.
"Some of the forces of your world have been very active in plundering and causing pain across a few worlds, and I am here today to rectify that."
Dangerous words spread out without fear from Noah as they reached the ears of every Ruler in the Demon Capital. Expressions of rage and apprehension were abundant as many of the Rulers continued to hear Agares’s commanding voice to calm through the communication channel.
They used to be extremely powerful, and would never stand for arrogant words like these to be said to them!
But, their most powerful Ruler was dead! Many more of their leaders followed him as they faced True Death with which they had no answers to. Now, enemies they did not know came down upon them, and their power was nothing to laugh at. Many of the remaining Rulers were wrathful, but they were apprehensive even more.

Agares followed the lead of his Ultimate Skill, Tactician, as he saw a path appearing in front of him. It did not lie when it showed him that many Rulers would die today, but the path which showed his survival, and the survival of the Demon World, was gradually becoming clear.
He kept his mouth shut as he continued to listen, as this was the best course of action that Tactician pointed out. The golden-haired man in the air was surprised at their level of control as he continued speaking.
"Belial, Asmodeus, Dantalion, Furcas, Malphas, Andras, Valac, Naberius, Marax, Phenex, Orobas, Haures, and Gaap. All of these Rulers...will die."
BOOM!
The words struck out as if they carried immense weight and damage, shock appearing on all the Rulers, but even more so on those whose names were mentioned.
As if on cue, shining white blue lights descended from the skies in the form of monoliths that struck and landed down all over the Demon Capital. There weren’t too many, but they were extremely large in size as the moment they landed, they began pulsing with a red light.
"Outrageous!"
A deadly shout rang out from a corner of the Demon Capital as one of the remaining PHANTASMAL ranked Rulers erupted out. His figure was that of a giant, having the blood of the Golden Titans coursing through him. He was ranked fifth, the President, Marbas.
He carried a powerful cane as his voice erupted out and his figure floated into the skies, ignoring the commands of Agares who continued to watch the situation closely while using his Ultimate Skill, Tactician, at its fullest. The decision that Marbas was taking to confront the invaders at this moment...his skill told him that it was extremely deadly!
"You cannot trounce on the dignity of Rulers of the Demon World by bringing some measly beasts that carry the same rank as me and think you can shout some arrogant commands without consequence."
His body floated in the air as the cane in his arms wiggled out and expanded into a gloriously shining suit of armor that wrapped around his large body. His already large size erupted out even larger as he neared the same size as the Calamities floating in the skies around Noah, his power seemingly boundless as his eyes bore towards Noah with pride.

"WAAAAH!"
Cheers came from some of the Legions surrounding the Demon Capital as this show of power finally came out from their side. This was the one that earned the title of President, the one holding yet another Ultimate Skill, the Seven Deadly Sins- Pride. The series of Seven Deadly Sins were not just reserved for those ranked high in the Demon World, but were held by the beings that fit their characteristics the most!
An example was the 32nd ranked Asmodeus, the Ruler that appeared in the Draconic Kingdom of the Beast World and tore apart the strongest Mythical Beast by using the Ultimate Skill, the Sin of L.u.s.t.
Marbas was the one Ruler that signified Pride at its fullest, his ever so expanding body towering higher and higher until it passed the size of the largest Calamity in the skies. His large horned head rose up arrogantly as he spoke towards the beings in front of it.
"What gave you the courage to descend to the Demon World and demean its Rulers while the holder of the Sin of Pride is right in front of you, boy?"
Arrogance!
The words carried with them extreme pride as Marbas fully believed in his power in the face of beings at the same level as himself!
The golden-haired man that was the target of these words did not reply, only looking up at this figure with a calm expression. He breathed out lightly and stretched his neck as the golden trident floating in front of him shined out.
[Spatial Lock] was used as the entire surrounding space became hard to move in.
OOONG!
An eruption of essence occurred next as Noah’s body rapidly changed, the form of a terrifying Dictatorial Kaiju- Hydra making its appearance. The Hydra was welcomed by blooming flowers of bones as the abilities of the Ultimate Skill, Bone Master, were activated.
A maddeningly powerful exoskeleton wrapped around the humungous body of the Hydra as an unending flow of bones erupted out to surround the large body of Marbas in less than a second.
"OOOH!"
A large scream came out from the encircled Marbas as his large fist struck out and created a small opening in the encirclement of bones, but they quickly closed in again as yet another skill was activated from Noah.
[Sundering Hellflames] were activated as a tremendous amount of mana was used without reservation, every single section of the field of bones and on the body of Marbas erupting out with dark red flames that continued to burn endlessly.
Noah wasn’t done as on top of all of this, its large body disappeared from its location to appear right above the head of the maddened Marbas whose body was surrounded by bones and flames, [Space Destruction] being cast amidst all of this as the space where the upper body of the giant resided was cracked.
"ARGH!"
A piercing scream rang out from Marbas as he took horrendous damage and felt his skull and muscle become deformed, but the attacks were not done! The shining trident appeared yet again as [Heart Piercer] was cast in conjunction with [Plasma Beam] as a beam of light erupted out, descending down toward the already mangled head of Marbas!
BOOM!
A shocking amount of essence was used in a few seconds as the people watching felt an overwhelming power erupt out, and when just a few seconds passed, they opened their eyes to see more than 75% of the head of Ruler of the Sin of Pride missing.
OONG
Noah was not done as he cast yet another Ultimate Skill without reservation, this time activating {Gluttony} as the middle head of the Dictatorial Kaiju- Hydra, stretched its mouth unnaturally wide as a black veil erupted out to cover the entirety of the body of Marbas.
POP!
The moment the black light wrapped around Marbas’s body in its entirety, an eerie sound occurred as the large body disappeared, nowhere to be seen as only a single powerful three-headed hydra remained in the area. The sea of bones and blazing flames surrounded this powerful being as its booming voice quaked across the Demon Capital.
"Who dares to still stand in my way?!"

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep! Cover art by @tahraart on Instagram. Link to discord: https://youtu.be/91wX0NRjJqg Have a good one, Pistol. **** THE STORY IS ON TEMPORARY HIATUS. WE WILL BE BACK IN 2 MONTHS. SORRY EVERYONE.

The Skies of Aurora (To be rewritten in the future)
The Skies of Aurora A world full of thousands of islands spread throughout an endless sky with no ground to be seen beneath them. Here we find Shawn Blake, who lives a quiet life near a dungeon on the Isle of Fallen Snow. Very few people ever visit the Isle of Fallen Snow because there is only one dungeon that has a connection to the island in all of the endless Skies of Aurora. Thanks to that, Shawn has been able to live peacefully on the island with nothing but his training to worry about, despite being a hybrid of more than one of the five ruling races. However, unfortunately for Shawn, his peaceful life is about to come to an end as some visitors make their way to the Isle of Fallen Snow for reasons unknown. The world of Aurora is a world of endless skies full of floating islands separated by open air with the void far below them, and the only way to get from one island to another is through portals that are located at the end of each dungeon. These portals are connected to the central portal on another island. This book is a litrpg, fantasy, and sky world all in one. I hope you enjoy my book, and I welcome any and all suggestions.
