章 211: Chapter 211
The jump from fifty to a hundred-times increase in power made him officially enter the realm of mid-Supreme Class, something Atid had to match up quickly before he lost.
Instead of replying out loud, Atid used action.
"[WELSH DRAGON! BALANCE BREAKER!]"

It was complete chaos. Four days had already passed since Igor and Atid had fought, yet neither seemed to relent. They fought without restraint, with complete disregard for the other's life. They fought like enemies who were out for each other's necks.
The only reason they could afford to fight so dangerously was because of the elders above them. In the event of one's death, they could be resurrected. Regardless, no matter how hard they fought, neither managed to inflict enough debilitating injuries before they healed.
The ground in the Heavenly Realm was hard. Despite Atid's and Igor's relentless clash against each other, only a few tens of craters existed. The boys fought with all their might to outdo the other. But between Atid's divine energy and Igor's demi ki healing them, neither could maintain advantage for long.
BOOOM!
Su! Su!
After a particularly violent clash, Igor and Atid separated from each other. With a space of a few dozen metres between each other, both teenagers looked no different from when they started. While Atid's scale armour remained pristine aside from dust, Igor's coat was completely torn apart.
Still, aside from a bit of dirt on his face, his grin remained wider than ever.
Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Su
His aura was still vibrant like it was four days ago. Despite releasing a few powerful techniques, his ability to regenerate ki allowed him to maintain near-peak energy levels constantly.
However, this didn't come without costs. Igor could feel that in two days, he would be too hungry to continue fighting. He was already hungry even now. And with how him and Atid couldn't secure a complete advantage against each other, it was time that this fight was brought to a conclusion.
"Hey, Atid. What do you say we get really wild? I can feel you still have more in the tank."
"..."
Atid considered Igor's words. Speaking from knowledge, he knew if this pace was kept, he could win this battle of attrition. Unlike Igor, his divine energy allowed him to live without the need to eat. And as long as he's in the Heavenly Realm, the amount of stamina he regenerated eclipsed the amount he expended, especially after completely mastering the Balance Breaker.
"Hmph."
But winning like this wasn't the Saiyan way.
"Alright. It just so happens that I have another trick I developed just for you, brother."
"Really? Then…you go first."
Igor was curious to see what Atid had because from the looks of things, it wasn't the Juggernaut Drive.
"Very well, brother."
Slowly, Atid began to float.
"Then observe me carefully, for this form was born from my desire to surpass you."
Atid's scale mail slowly began to glow as his power began to rise.
"[CRIMSON THUNDER DRIVE!]"
As soon as the announcement ended, a crimson thunderbolt struck Atid, completely enveloping him in a bright red flash filled with wisps of green. Igor had to momentarily cover his eyes from how bright it was.
However, the flash ended just as soon as it appeared and once it did, it showed Atid to be in a smaller, sleeker version of the scale mail. Two long jet-like wings protruded from behind while his form gained a more aerodynamic design.
The long horizontal slit where his eyes were glowed green as he looked Igor.
"You have always been faster than me, brother. No matter how many times I boosted myself, I could never gain an edge on you. But now, your only advantage against me is now redundant."
"..."
Igor didn't say anything. Instead, he got into a stance, ready to power-up. No longer was he grinning wildly. Instead, he was serious, serious as he ever would be.
If he were to fight Atid as he was right now, then his loss would be almost a guarantee. And if Atid truly was as fast as he said he was, then Igor didn't think he'd last even five minutes.
"I can feel your power, Brother Atid. You're on a new level entirely."
Slowly, the aura around him began to billow.
"I'll also show you my sincerity by displaying my absolute full-power."
Su Su Su Su Su Su Su Su
His eyes gradually grew fervent.
"No restraints! No nothing!"
Su! Su! Su! Su! Su! Su! Su! Su!
"I'll show you my power in its complete entirety!"
The aura around him violently flashed as his power continued to increase. The pressure in the vicinity suddenly became heavy as his demi-ki came out of control.
"HaaaAAAA!"
GRUUUUU!
With his fists clenched tightly at his sides, Igor summoned every ounce of his power, every ounce of his ki to ascend into a form he had not touched since leaving the time chamber.
Like the jagged edges of a razor knife, his hair grew spiked apart as if it was struck by lightning. But the most pressing change was not only how the veins on his entire bulged, but how his muscle mass noticeably swelled.
So much demi-ki was flowing through him that his veins had to widen in order to accommodate such an overcharge of energy. This widening inevitably caused his muscles to noticeably swell.
However, this didn't seem to cause Igor any pain. In fact, even as he powered up, he seemed to be growing more and more feral…like a wild animal.
"HAAAAAA!"
As his power reached its peak, his skin darkened slightly from the sudden increase in the amount of blood flowing through him. It wasn't until he powered up to his maximum that he released a powerful shockwave.
BOOOM!
.
.
.
Silence…
As the remaining dust around him cleared, Igor was exposed to be standing tall, his hair jutting out like the jagged edges of a rocky mountain. His body had grown more muscular, his chest noticeably swelling with each powerful breath he took. His body was so hot that the mist he released through his mouth was visible to the naked eye.
His gaze zeroed in on Atid, his eyes glinting as his lips spread in a very, very wide grin.
"I want to fight…"
Igor wasn't normal. That manic gaze…it was completely beyond his usual scale.
"I WANT YOU TO FIGHT ME!!!!"
GRUUUUU!
"..."
Atid got ready.
"[BOOST]"
He wasn't completely sure what was going on with Igor, but the killing intent the redhead was releasing was not normal.
[Something is wron-]
Tswii!
"FIGHT ME!!!"
BOOOM!
Igor's strike was powerful. Atid could barely block it before it struck. As such…
SUUuuuuu…
...he was sent flying. Fortunately, he didn't enter the confines of unconsciousness so he was able to maintain awareness and correct himself.
Psshhhhuaaaa!
With the thrusters on his back coming to life, he rushed forward with such fast acceleration that Igor who was about to give chase…could barely see the fist strike him.
BOOOM!
With a quick feint, Atid changed direction and struck him with a powerful gut punch. Igor who had raised his guard to block a punch to the face …
"HAHAHAHA!"
…laughed despite Atid having landed a powerful attack in his midsection. With swift decisiveness, Igor grabbed his opponent's arm and heaved him over his shoulders.
"?!"
Atid struggled to escape, but Igor's grip was too strong. He was helpless as Igor performed a powerful takedown by slamming him into the ground.
Booom!
And it didn't stop there.
"Hehehe…"
Keeping a firm hold on Atid's arm, Igor cackled once more before heaving him up and slamming him into the ground again.
Booom!
And again.
Booom!
And again.
Booom!
It wasn't until a few slams later that Igor threw Atid into the air, ran forward, and gave him a powerful soccer kick to the stomach.
"?!"
SUUUuuuu…BOOOM!
Atid ploughed right into the ground. The pain of having his back used to dig a long trench paled to the absolute pain of having his guts kicked like that.
"Argh…"
Getting up, he felt a bit light-headed from the previous impacts he had to suffer through. But he knew one thing. Even if his view of the world was inverted, he would never stand in one spot when fighting Igor.
Su! …BOOOM!
Having retreated, he had barely dodged a stomp that would've no doubt seen his lungs into early retirement.
Keeping his distance from the manic redhead, Atid inwardly questioned himself.
[Did his defence rise or is he impervious to pain?]
He had put in a lot of power into the first gut punch, yet Igor shrugged it off like it was nothing. He was sure Ddraig would know, but the old dragon was asked not to help him.
"Tch."
Su!
Evading again, he landed on the ground just as Igor grabbed his afterimage in a bear hug.
[He's berserk. He either has very thick skin or his sense of pain has been dulled.]
"[BOOST!]"
[Don't think too much, Atid. If one punch won't do it, then how about a hundred?]
"[BOOST! BOOST! BOOST! BOOST! BOOST! BOOST!]"
After boosting his power seven times in succession, his power increased by over a hundred times. Yet, that would quickly dwindle with time.
Tswii!
In a flash, Igor appeared in front of Atid with his hand outstretched. He tried to grab his head, but Atid calmly swayed to the side. Immediately, the world seemed to lose all of its colour as Atid entered the Zone, a unique ability of his new state.
[I am one with the world.]
In his view, everyone including Igor, turned pale blue with Igor being the brightest shade. Numerous little matrix lines seemed to infinitely shoot into the horizon, all while everything else remained frozen in time.
Calmly, Atid got into a stance as if he was preparing to punch the now-frozen Igor. Yet…
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
…light blue phantom versions of himself stretched from his body and continuously punched Igor, all while the original reeled back his fist. Igor remained completely frozen in time, unaware that havoc was being wrought on his body.
Suuuuuu…
Soon, all the phantoms slowly seemed to be reabsorbed into Atid's body before finally, he punched forward.
Gu! …*SHATTER!*
With that one punch, the pale zone shattered like glass as the colours of the world slowly bled in. As time resumed its course, Igor's manic grin slowly fell as a flood of pain registered throughout his body.
"Ah…ah…"
He stumbled forward, his eyes open in shock. His hand moved to his chest where he held it tightly.
"Ah…"
His steps were faltering. His eyes were losing. They were gradually rolling to the back of his head, indicating his impending unconsciousness.
But before Atid could release a sigh of relief, Igor suddenly exploded with untold power.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
On instinct, he evaded the scene and opened a few metres of distance between them.
"...what?"
What he saw astounded him. By all rights, his technique should've knocked Igor out if not outright killed him.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Yet somehow, said redhead was laughing wildly in front of him.
"YES! YES! YES! This is the feeling! THIS IS THE FEELING!!!"
Igor raised his head to face Atid, his palm covering one half of his face. Even as blood leaked out of his mouth, his singular visible crimson eye did little to hide his excitement.
"Give me more…"
His power spiked up even more.
"Give…me…MOREEEEEE!!!!!!"
GRUUUUU!

I vaguelly remember this transformation from when Igor first entered the Demigod State. It was in chapter 121. At the time, his limit was 110x. Looks like he improved(?) on it…to an extent.
On another note, you can read five extra chapters on my p.a.t.r.e.o.n.
Until the next chapter.
