Angle's Arrogance? My Pact with the Succubus Queen!
Chapter 420: Seven Cores. That’s Enough to Eat!
But after devouring the Time and Space cores back-to-back, the four perfect gene chains inside Logan started repelling each other.
The silver energy of the Time Rule clashed with the black vortex of the Devouring Rule in the chaotic helix structure. Meanwhile, the Space Rule and Soul Rule rubbed against each other.
In an instant, Logan's vision went black. Everything blurred into pure chaos.
About three seconds later, Logan's body began to spasm. His muscles twitched uncontrollably, like electricity was tearing through his spine.
He forced his pain signals to shut off. Only then did he sigh with relief, wipe the cold sweat from his forehead without expression, and mutter: "Five more left!"
While Logan was adjusting, none of the Demigods across from him dared to strike.
They were genuinely terrified. They refused to gamble on whether Logan was faking it to spring a trap.
Seeing this, Logan smiled and flipped them off. "You bunch of cowards. If you'd actually moved earlier, you might've made things difficult for me!"
Thor·Green cursed: "You bastard!" and raised his hand to gather the Creation Rule.
Emerald light rained down from the sky. Each drop held healing and reconstructive power, trying to mend the wounds of Aion and Valen.
But Logan didn't give him a chance. Logan formed a seal with his right hand, and his skill, [Myriad Laws to Ruin], activated.
Nine rule-lights spun and intertwined in his palm. A disintegration field spread out above his head.
The emerald light rain released by Thor·Green was sucked into the center of the vortex. Instantly, it broke down into raw creation energy particles. Just like the lightning particles before, these creation rule particles were absorbed from afar by the Creation Mother Star in Logan's familiar world.
After absorbing a massive amount of creation rule particles, the emerald planet erupted with life. The Ancestral Spirits girl sensed the energy influx at the core, and her Staff of Life blazed with light. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
While stopping his healing, Logan thrust his left hand forward. Truth Chains pierced into Thor's core and wrapped around the creation core.
Thor screamed: "How… how can you break down a Creation Rule?!"
"Your Creation power is too weak," Logan said. He yanked hard, and the green crystal was pulled straight out of Thor's core.
Logan had already cut off his body's pain feedback. Right in front of all the Demigods, he devoured the creation rule crystals. In an instant, his internal creation gene chain reached perfection!
The pain was gone, but the wild aura emitting from Logan was so intense it felt almost solid.
It was a terrifying form born from clashing, collapsing, and chaotic rule fusion. It was grotesque and horrifying.
Seeing Logan like this, the remaining Demigods turned pale with fear.
"Stay back!" Mars·Black roared in rage and struck.
[Chains of Destruction!]
Six pitch-black chains, thick as arms, pierced straight down from the sky. Wherever they passed, the air caught fire and erupted with deafening cracks.
Logan once again used [Myriad Laws to Ruin] to break down the chains.
The Creation and Destruction Rules clashed in the disintegration field, reducing the destruction energy back to its raw particles.
Then, with a sharp command from Logan: "Mars, your Destruction is mine now."
Several Truth Chains pierced into Mars's spine simultaneously, locking onto his internal Destruction Rule nodes.
Through the agony, Mars's pupils shrank. He looked down at the chains piercing his chest. "Impossible… Destruction Rule…"
In his sight, a pitch-black core was torn straight out of his body.
Logan picked up the black crystal and swallowed it whole.
Now, both the Destruction and Creation Rules inside Logan reached perfection at the same time. They clashed within the chaotic helix structure. The emerald and pitch-black lights annihilated each other, and every impact sent violent tremors through Logan's entire body.
Suddenly, Logan's vision went black again. His right knee buckled, and a sharp throb pulsed in his temple.
Here is the translation, carefully paced and phrased for natural Western web novel/fantasy reading habits. All original English terms have been preserved exactly as requested, with simple, direct vocabulary and tight sentence structure.
It felt like two tides crashing inside his veins. Every impact burst a fine mist of blood, sweating out through his pores.
This wasn't physical pain anymore. It was a deep shiver in his soul.
Through the intense agony, the scar on Logan's arm suddenly flared to life.
The Observer No. 1's cold voice echoed through the lingering connection in the scar. "Logan, did you think you'd won? You got greedy for power that wasn't yours. You devoured the core of the Divine Rule from so many Demigod."
"Right now, those Divine Rule that don't belong to you are tearing each other apart. Your body won't last long. It will collapse under the strain. I won't even need to lift a finger. I'll just wait and finish you off."
A drop of blood slipped from the corner of Logan's mouth, but he only gave a cold smirk.
Logan sent a response through the scar, his voice driving straight into The Observer No. 1's mind. "You old fool, what you sent over was just an appetizer."
"And after I'm done with them, I'm going to digest your real body. You haven't finished chewing up those 128 plane cores from the graveyard, have you? I'll eat them one by one, right in front of you."
The Observer No. 1's will tremble violently. He never expected Logan to track him down through the scar's soul link. "How dare you! You're asking to die!"
Blinded by rage, The Observer No. 1 tightened the scar's grip on the remaining Demigod. "You useless trash! Kill Logan now! Don't care about the cost!"
Golden patterns rose beneath the skin of Leon, Felix, Titan, and Norn as the scars forced them to drain their own cores.
In an instant, Demigod Leon·Stanley's eyes turned pure gold. He began to burn his remaining core power at a crazy rate.
[Ten Thousand Thunder Tribulations!]
The lightning scepter erupted. Blue-white storm clouds rolled out for a hundred miles in every direction.
[Eternal Winter Domain!]
Felix·Evans called it out. The air around him snapped into a frozen dead zone, dropping to near absolute zero.
[Heart of Magma!]
Titan·Titus slammed his fists into the ground. Molten rock erupted beneath him.
Behind the others.
Norn·Karl gritted his teeth through the searing pain in his eyes. He forced his Prophecy Rule to run, locking onto Logan's next move. "He's hitting three hundred meters up and left! Right now!"
Four massive strikes came down at once. Logan's position was locked.
There was no room to dodge.
He had to take it head-on.
Instead, Logan's lips curled into a grin. He raised a hand and activated [Myriad Laws to Ruin]. "You don't know a single thing about my power."
Before the four Demigod could even blink, everything unraveled.
The thunderstorm shrank back into raw lightning particles. The frozen field broke apart into biting cold mist. The molten rock dissolved into chunks of the earth and Inferno particles. All of it poured straight into Logan's familiar world.
At the same time, Norn's predicted space coordinate came up empty. Logan wasn't there.
His prophecy was completely off. Logan had broken it.
"Trying to use a Prophecy Rule on me?" Logan scoffed. "You're way too naive."
He vanished and reappeared right in front of Norn. He was too fast. Even the Prophecy Rule couldn't update its prediction in time.
[Truth Chains!]
Dark-gold chains shot out, piercing straight into Norn's eye sockets. Norn screamed as his eyes burst open.
The chains wrapped around the golden core inside his head and yanked it out. It was a pale gold crystal, its surface etched with glowing Prophecy Rulerune.
"Your Prophecy Rule is mine now."
Logan swallowed the rule crystals in one go. Instantly, his internal gene chain for prophecy snapped into place, perfect and complete.
Right then, seven Divine Rule inside him flared to life at the same time. All seven rules clashed against each other in the chaotic helix structure.
Silver-white Time collided with black Devouring. Emerald Creation clashed with pitch-black Destruction. Whitish-gold Space rubbed against silver-gray Soul, while pale gold Prophecy darted through the chaos.
Every impact sent violent tremors through Logan's frame. His ears rang louder, his right knee buckled, and a sharp throb pulsed in his temple.
Logan made a quick hand seal with his right. The black hole beneath him spun at full force.
Its diameter expanded, spinning ten thousand times a second to swallow the conflicting energy inside him. It ground the clashing rules down to dust and forced them back into the chaotic helix structure.
Logan planted his feet firmly, raised his left hand, and wiped the blood trailing from his lips.
He lifted his head, his gaze cold as he locked onto the three remaining Demigod.
Leon's lightning scepter slipped from his grip and clattered to the ground. The electric arcs along its shaft died out completely.
Felix's Eternal Winter Domain shrank to just three meters around him. The biting cold had faded to barely a whisper.
Titan's left leg was snapped clean. He fell to one knee as his own Tenfold Gravity Field backfired, pinning him to the ground.
"Three left."
Logan wiped the sweat from his chin. A cold smile curled his lips. "I'm devouring them all today."
Far away, The Observer No. 1 watched in real-time as the seven divine cores were crushed and reformed inside Logan by the black hole. Even his cold will flickere with a rare shock.
He cranked up the scar's grip again, trying to force-draw the final remnants of their cores to trigger a Self-Destruct attack.
But the scars inside Logan were locked shut. The remote link was completely severed.
Logan raised his left hand, staring at the Truth Chains coalescing in his palm.
The surface of the chains shimmered with the light of the seven Devouring Rule he had already consumed. Two more sets of rule light were simmering nearby, eager to break through.
He took a step forward, closing the distance to the last three Demigod.
Golden patterns completely swallowed Leon·Stanley's eyes.
He reached out, yanking the fallen scepter back into his grip. Burning his final reserves, the electric arcs along the shaft flared wildly. Ten Thousand Thunder Tribulations tore through the sky once more.
Felix·Evans's face had drained of all color, but he gritted his teeth and held his ground.
Eternal Winter Domain spread out from his feet. The temperature plummeted to the edge of absolute zero. The freezing air snapped into millions of fine ice crystals, laying down a half-meter thick sheet of ice over the ground.
Unable to stand with his broken leg, Titan·Titus propped himself up on both hands and slammed his fists into the volcanic rock.
A tectonic Shockwave rippled through the cracks beneath him. A hundred-meter fissure tore open in the earth. Magma blasted upward, colliding with the Frost and detonating into a cloud of white steam.
The three strikes merged into a single, crushing torrent heading straight for Logan.
The lightning scorched the air until it burned. The freezing cold hardened the magma into black glass. The Shockwave ground the earth into fine dust.
Logan looked up at the crushing weight of the three converging rules. He let out a sharp scoff. "Three rules, working together?"
He formed a quick hand seal with his right. His voice cut through the chaos, cold and sharp.
"Myriad Laws to Ruin!"
