The Hero of Hypnosis

"I see that you're taking this seriously now, huh?" Kai couldn't help but laugh at the situation. He would have never expected Malgus to split the continent in half. But then again, he did say that he would shape the place in his own image, so maybe this was the start of that.

"I recognize your strength, truly. The only person who made me use my true form was Rolimont. And seeing as you wield his blade, I say it was destined to be this way."

"Destiny? Nah, I don't believe in that shit. The only thing I believe in is sexy women and being overpowered." Kai tossed the hero's sword to the side, not even wanting it in his inventory. The blade floated on its own and flew toward Saintess Celeste.

"Let's see what's in this divine shop."

Divine Abilities

Power of Destruction - Able to destroy anything and everything you touch. As for how much you wish to destroy, it is up to the user. Cannot destroy beings or things as powerful or more powerful than you - 5,000,000 SP ]

'Just what I was looking for. Rip to my SP though.' After purchasing the ability, Kai realized that if something like destruction power was only 5-mil SP, then getting into the hundred millions or even billions would give him power akin to a god, or maybe even beyond.

"Alright, time to party!"

Malgus swung his scythe, his body bursting with demonic flame as shadows curved into a dozen jagged blades. They shot toward Kai like a storm.

Kai laughed manically, sprinting straight into them. His fist glowed with Destruction—every blade that touched him disintegrated into dust. He weaved through the barrage, then drove a punch into Malgus's gut. The Demon King staggered, black ichor spraying, but his clawed hand instantly lashed out, carving across Kai's ribs and sending him tumbling back.

'We're relatively equal in power right now, so my destruction cant kill him outright. But even though I like being OP, this fight is really making my blood boil with excitement!'

Malgus slammed his hands together, releasing a tidal wave of curses that warped the air into a storm of screaming faces. The ground shriveled and cracked beneath the weight of the spell.

Kai grinned, vanishing into the storm with a blur of speed. His leg snapped upward in a flaming arc, coated in Destruction. The kick tore through the curses, erasing the spell in an instant before it connected with Malgus's chin.

The impact launched the Demon King skyward, his body crashing through a mountain and leaving it in ruins. Kai landed lightly, cracking his knuckles.

"How does a mortal possess such power?!" Malgus roared. Above, he spread his arms, wings of shadow unfurling as he bellowed. Darkness flooded down like a black ocean, threatening to swallow Kai whole.

The shadow ocean surged down, drowning the battlefield in choking black. The pressure crushed mountains flat, the sky itself groaning. Magma rose from the split earth, and the ground shook once more.

Kai just whistled, raising his fist. A small spark of Destruction flickered around his knuckles—quiet, subtle, almost unimpressive. Then he punched the air.

The spark detonated into a dome of erasure, tearing a hole straight through the ocean of darkness. The shadows split apart like curtains, leaving a clear path as Kai shot upward like a cannonball.

"Sup bitch!" He drove his knee into Malgus's chest midair, the impact echoing like thunder. Malgus coughed blood but snarled, grabbing Kai's leg with both hands and swinging him down. Kai slammed into the earth hard enough to flip entire landmasses, a crater spanning for miles blooming around him.

From the pit, Kai's laughter rang out. "Okay, okay! Now that's more like it!"

Kai shot out of the crater like a missile, dust exploding behind him. His fist, coated in Destruction, slammed into Malgus's jaw, snapping his head back. Before the Demon King could recover, Kai twisted midair and buried a heel into his ribs, the strike detonating with a concussive blast that split the horizon.

"What's wrong, Malgus? You slowing down?"

Snarling, Malgus unleashed a wave of curses that warped the ground into screaming faces. "Enough games! I'll drown you in eternal torment!"

Kai smirked, raising his hands as space itself cracked. "Yeah, yeah. Eternal torment, blah blah blah. You villains really need new material. I literally have a book of villain lines, and what you said was definitely in it."

Reality folded, dragging them both into a void of pure Destruction. Malgus's shadows crumbled instantly. His scythe shattered against Kai's arm.

"Impossible…!"

Kai blurred forward, fists and legs tearing Malgus apart piece by piece, every strike erasing more of his existence. Finally, he seized him by the throat, Destruction burning in his palm.

"Don't take it personally, Malgus. You were fun. But… you're out of your league. If I wanted to, I could have killed you in an instant."

He slammed his hand into the Demon King's chest. Malgus screamed as his body unraveled, erased until nothing remained.

Kai dusted off his hands as the void collapsed, spitting him back into the ruined battlefield.

"Ohohoho! I just thought of a badass title! How about the Slayer of Demons?... Nah, feels like that was done already. Whatever. I'm going back home."

Everyone was in shock. The civilians, the king, the church, Gracia, and even Kai's women were shocked. They knew he was strong, but to kill the demon king like that? They would have never in a million years guessed that Kai was capable of doing such a thing.

"Pwahahaha! See, I told you not to worry." In the divine realm, Leo enjoyed watching his son beat the shit out of the demon king. Gracia, who was next to him, could only stare at the screen in front of them that showed the entire battle.

"Hmm. Those divine skills are too powerful. Having the weakest skills be only 100k points is too cheap. I'll bump those up to 1 million instead, and I'll push up the points for Arcane. Yeah, he'll love that."
