Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 4991

Chapter 4991: Finite I

An existence he could not touch.

An existence he might not be able to see.

By all means, Noah had hit a brick wall. His Geodesic Negation had passed through the armored titan like wind through empty space. His Maws had phased through platinum surfaces without finding purchase. His most devastating offensive forces had proven meaningless against something that existed on levels his authority could not reach.

And yet no despair took him, for he had to keep moving forward.

There was always a path. There was always an angle. There was always something that Infinity could find when bounded powers declared impossibility. He simply needed to discover what that something was, and he could not do that while standing still and accepting defeat.

This gaze of defiance burned in his eyes as he looked up at THE Primordial Armor.

Beowulf saw it.

The massive armored form rose from its position beside Noah, platinum plates shifting with amusement that communicated itself through their arrangement. The helm tilted as if examining something mildly interesting, and the visor oriented toward those defiant eyes with appreciation that bordered on mockery.

"As expected, there is that gaze of defiance."

"Well, if you wish to make things difficult, I can also take the easiest path."

The armored titan gestured casually toward the broken figure of Alexander still suspended in corrupted air behind its massive form.

"The Peacemaker. The one you came to save. I will collapse him in the next few seconds if you do not open yourself up to me."

A pause.

"Do we want to have that melodrama?"

...!

Noah looked ahead with expression that had gone somber, his blue-gold eyes taking in the scene before him with calculation running beneath their surface. The threat was clear. The leverage was obvious.

But Noah’s voice, when it emerged, carried words that seemed incongruent with reality.

"But you no longer have the Peacemaker."

...!

The statement made no sense.

Alexander’s broken form still hung in the corrupted air behind Beowulf, cellular fragments twitching with the aftermath of torture that had lasted eons in subjective experience. The Peacemaker was exactly where THE Primordial Armor had placed him, suspended like a trophy, like leverage, like bait that had successfully drawn the Infinity-bearer into confrontation.

But the moment the words were uttered, something changed.

SAA!

A neon light flashed across the corrupted Wastes with speed that made Absolute perception seem slow.

At Noah’s side, a certain space had become empty.

Skoll was no longer there.

The loyal companion who had stood beside his master throughout this confrontation, the very good boy whose Infinite-enhanced form had waited with serious expression while impossible odds accumulated around them, had moved.

And the lifeform that had been as fast as an Absolute when it was not an Absolute, now carrying Noah’s Infinities burning in its foundations, could traverse across those Infinities even faster than Noah himself.

This was why Noah had brought Skoll along.

For this moment.

"Ho?"

THE Primordial Armor turned to look behind itself with visor communicating appreciation through platinum arrangement. The space where Alexander had been suspended was empty. The broken Peacemaker’s cellular fragments no longer hung in corrupted air behind the armored titan.

"A decent surprise, Infinity-bearer."

"But..."
