Chapter 257: Demonic Void Apostle
"Wiik! Wiik!"
The wiik-bat came towards Luna and started to flap around her, and she raised her hand to try and get it away. She was trying to focus on Mark! Get away!
"Wiik! Wiik!"
The wiik-bat was relentless as it tried to get Luna's attention, and Luna had to turn to it and shout at it to leave her alone. But after the bat refused to leave and started to grab her hand, Luna finally noticed that it was trying to tell her something. It was constantly touching the marks on her hand!
Luna looked back at Mark and knew he was the one who sent the wiik-bat to talk to her! But, would something like that work? It was a gamble that might not even work if they tried it, and they could be wasting valuable commands.
But if it worked, then Mark would win!
Luna tightened her hands around the railing and she shouted out an order. It was better to try and fail than for her not to try at all.
"Mark!! I command you to not lose against Merlin!!"
[The master of PAWN has given an absolute order. The order is ambiguous and cannot be completed directly. The game is recalibrating the order for possible reinterpretations. The game has converted 'Do not lose to Merlin' to 'Do everything within your power to defeat Merlin'. The recalibration shall consume an extra command seal.]
[The master of PAWN has issued an absolute order. This order cannot be disobeyed. The system shall do everything in its power to support the user. Pain receptors have been turned off. Mental limiters have been disconnected. The user's body might experience major discomfort after the battle.]
Two of the magic lines on the back of Luna's hand turned white and she looked at it in shock as she realized that she must've made a mistake while giving her order! Did the system take an extra seal to correct her mistake?
Luna did not get any of the messages that the system just sent to Mark, so she was just hoping that her order would be accepted! She was just glad that the game did not reject her order because of how ambiguous it was!
Mark felt his entire body filling up with power as the system started to augment his muscles and mana flow to make his body go far beyond his limits.
[Mana Flow has been optimized.]
[Fear Index has been eliminated.]
[Current power output: 100%]
[Current power output: 120%]
[Current power output: 140%]
[Current power output: 170%]
[Time before temporary system shutdown: 5 mins]
"RARGGGHHHH!!"
Mark felt like he was high on cocaine!
It was the only way that Mark could explain what he was currently feeling in that moment! He could feel a massive well of power surging from somewhere inside him and he started to push back against the asteroid that was trying to crush him! The asteroid slowly came to a stop and Mark roared even louder as he pushed back against it and raised it slightly in the air!
Mark then used that small space between him and the asteroid to pull back his fist!
[Critical -]
[System Probability index maximized]
[Divergent Fist]!!
KA-BOOM!
The asteroid never stood a chance against the superpower punch from Mark. The crack that had appeared in it suddenly widened exponentially before the entire asteroid shattered into a million pieces and scattered in every direction!
Woosh!
Merlin's eyes widened as he saw Mark appear right beside him in a flash! His hand was outstretched towards Merlin's face and Merlin immediately tried to bring up a defense to block it.
[Demonic Killer's Aura] has been activated!
Ba-Dump!
[[Demonic Killer's Aura] activation successful.]
[The opponent will be under the [Fear] condition for one minute.]
'What?'
Merlin's eyes widened as he felt his heart shake in slight fear! This was the first time that something like this would be happening to Merlin in a very long time. Was he feeling afraid right now!? Merlin couldn't understand what was happening and that prevented him from reacting quickly enough to stop Mark from grabbing his face!
Mark pulled Merlin forward before slamming him through a building and sending them both through it!
Boom!
They crashed through the building and Mark slammed Merlin into the ground before tossing him like a ragdoll towards another building!
Boom!
Merlin flipped himself upright as he slammed into the building and quickly activated one of his best defensive spells as he saw Mark right in front of him! Is he trying to barrage me with attacks without giving me a chance to counter!? Doesn't he know that won't work against someone like me!?
PHWOOM!
A massive windblade appeared in the air beside Mark and Mark used his momentum to grab Merlin once more before slamming both feet into Merlin's chest and pushing them apart! The windblade flew between them and slammed into the building at the side harmlessly before Mark rushed back in for another attack.

"Enough!!"
Merlin was no longer smiling now! He pulled himself out from the building that Mark just pushed him through and shouted angrily as he activated a wide array of spells all at the same time. But it was at that moment that he truly messed up.
Mark has been saving his mana for a long time now. Mark knew that with the addition of mana, he would be a lot stronger than he was, but Mark didn't even try to use his mana. The [Demonic Void Apostle] constitution gave Mark an innate skill that would work against anyone regardless of who they were, so long as they only had half of his mana.
Merlin had both his mana as well as Morgana's mana, and knowing how in tune with magic those two were, Mark knew that it would be impossible to try and bring Merlin's mana down to half of his own. But now that Mark was a bishop, not only did he have twice as much mana as before, but he also had a master whose mana he could draw from.
And the combination of all these conditions gave Mark the upper hand in terms of mana.
[The opponent's mana had dropped to half the user's current mana capacity. [Demonic Void Apostle]'s innate spell has been activated.]
…
i. The Bishop will be granted a 200% boost to their current magic capacity.
ii. The Bishop's master is allowed to share their mana with the bishop to boost the Bishop's mana capacity.
…
Mark pulled on Luna's mana and Luna felt a massive drain as her mana obeyed Mark. She grabbed her chest as a strange feeling erupted from her chest and spread across her whole body. What was happening?
Mark was standing on a skyscraper opposite Merlin – who was floating in the air and activating his magic spells once more. There was a line of blood leaking from the side of Mark's head and his singlet was completely shredded, but he stood tall with a nasty grin on his face. This fight was over.
