Chapter 747 Chapter 747: No
"People are dying, Megawoman."
"Maybe if you just stop!"
"Now, now. Where would the fun be if I stopped, m'lady?"
"Stop doing a British accent! No one talks like that anymore!"
"How do you know I'm not from that part of the world?"
"Because I know who you are, Riley!"
"Oh, but do you?"
Megawoman and Darkday were now on top of a building. Or to be more precise, they were on top of a building that was floating above the city of Miami; the people that were inside, very slowly disappearing one by one as Megawoman was rescuing them while having a casual conversation with Darkday. Her silhouette, very slightly flickering more than a thousand times in a single second.
And soon, with the last person now safely a kilometer away from the battle and hidden underground; Megawoman's silhouette stopped flickering. Her eyes which were barely visible from all the wind blasting on her face, now glowing red.
No violent beam gushed from her eyes, however. Instead, she placed her palms together, before a large sword, a zweihander, emerged from her hands. The zweihander almost looked crystal; it was dark, but there were hints of red glimmering across it when glanced at in a certain direction.
"That's new, Megawoman. Where have you been hiding that?" Darkday's helmet tilted to the side as his visor reflected the fading light from Megawoman's weapon.
"I just don't use it," Megawoman slightly moved the sword to the left, revealing her eyes that also reflected Darkday's silhouette, "But I am now since I am going for the kill."
"How generous of you, Megawoman. Will you finally be the lucky one to actually end me?" Darkday let out a small chuckle as he too, placed his palms together and summoned his own zweihander made with Hannah's abilities; compressed to the point that the light looked solid.
"Oh..." Darkday then stretched the zweihander away from him and looked at, "...Very sneaky, Megawoman. You're copying what I'm doing and compressing your Themarian energy, very sneak—"
And before Darkday could finish his words, the glimmering reflecting on his visor disappeared. And even with the threat of Megawoman's attack, Darkday just stayed standing on the roof extremely still.
His frozen silhouette did not last long, however, as he suddenly plunged the zweihander toward the floor—causing lava to instantly crawl throughout the entire building and turning the entire infrastructure into magma in less than a second.
One would think the magma would rain down on the city below, but no—instead, it flew up due to a turbulent gale that was blasting from below; the fiery debris, quickly turning cold as they soon floated above the skies and out into space. Darkday quickly looked down, only to see Megawoman wiping her lips.
"Oh...?" Darkday could not appreciate the view, however, as the image faded away; with Megawoman now directly behind him, slicing his entire body in half.
Megawoman's eyes, however, did not leave Darkday's cleaved body as she watched the two halves start to drop—and as soon as they turned into sand, Megawoman quickly waved her sword behind her.
"Oops."
The blade, however, quickly halted in the air as she saw Darkday... holding an old man and using it as a shield, "You almost killed him, Megawoman."
"M...Megawoman?" The old man quickly glanced at Megawoman, "Is... Is it really you—"
But alas, Darkday pushed the old man's head toward the halted zweihander before he could finish struggling with his words.
"You!" Megawoman gritted her teeth as Darkday let go of the old man's corpse.
"Well, he was going to die sooner or later," Darkday shrugged, "In fact, each and every one of these people is going to die sooner or later. So, what is the point in trying to save any of them, Megawoman?"
"Life, no matter how short, is precious. I have told you that so many times," Megawoman almost roared as she rammed her entire body on Darkday. Darkday blocked the sudden attack with his telekinetic barriers, but it wasn't enough as it completely broke his entire arm,
"But you are clearly incapable of learning anything other than murder!"
"That is not true, Megawoman," Darkday clicked his tongue several times as he grabbed Megawoman's wrist to prevent him from being completely eviscerated by the zweihander, "I don't learn how to murder, I invent new ways...
...like this."
And as he said that, the sky that was already dark started to dim even darker; the clouds, compressing as rumbles of thunder could be heard growling throughout the city of Miami.
"You... could control the weather?" Megawoman looked around.
"It is actually one of the earlier powers I received," Darkday let out a small chuckle as he allowed himself to be hit by Megawoman's weapon; the blade made with compressed energy, going through him like he was foam. Darkday, however, used this chance to embrace Megawoman once more and lock her even just for a single second,
"I know the power looks boring, but watch this."
And as soon as he said that, rain started to fall from the clouds. It looked normal at first—but soon, several deafening explosions blasted into the air. And it wasn't the sound of thunder, no. The sound was more akin to that of an Armalite, or perhaps a minigun.
"You..."
Megawoman completely ripped Darkday's entire body in half again—but it was too late. The rain... did not fall gently at all, no. All of them dropped toward the ground at several Mach speeds. no(veluSb/c-o)m
Megawoman tried to clap her hands to clear the rain, but two Darkdays caught both her arms before her palms could even touch each other. Of course, this only delayed Megawoman for a fraction of a second as the clones' arms were ripped away from their torso, but that was enough.
That was enough to completely erase the entire city of Miami.
