The supreme entity arrived before them in an instant.
Space itself seemed to twist as the enormous figure crossed the distance between them, its arrival carrying a weight Kael felt before he even understood what had happened. The invisible barrier that had separated him from the entity had done more than block its attacks. It had shielded him from the aura radiating off its body.
That barrier was gone now and Kael finally felt it.
His body stiffened as an overwhelming pressure crushed down on his existence. His breathing turned ragged, his muscles locked up, and for a moment he felt entirely insignificant beneath the presence looming over him.
He felt like a bug, no, even that was too generous, a bug at least got noticed when it was crushed underfoot, but before this entity, Kael felt like something that didn’t deserve acknowledgment at all.
The pressure was too much, and his consciousness trembled under it.
His instincts screamed at him to run, but his body wouldn’t move, there was nowhere to run anyway, he hung suspended in the endless void, fully exposed before something that could erase him without even trying.
Then the golden blob floating in front of him reacted, a wave of light bursting from its small body and wrapping around Kael. The pressure vanished almost instantly, and he gasped as the aura was shoved away from him.
Kael stared at the golden light. Only then did he notice what he’d overlooked.
That blob was no bigger than his fist, yet its aura was just as overwhelming, rivaling that of the supreme entity standing across from it.
Kael’s eyes narrowed as he looked between the two beings, realizing he’d somehow ended up caught between existences so far beyond him that measuring their strength was pointless.
"You need to get us out of here. Now."
The blob’s voice was tired. Annoyed. Like a babysitter who’d been stuck with an unruly kid far longer than their patience allowed.
Kael blinked.
"Say what?"
"You need to get us out of here."
"I don’t even know how!"
"Then figure it out!"
Kael opened his mouth to answer, but he never got the chance, the supreme entity was already moving.
Its massive body appeared above the blob in an instant, both hands clasped together like a gigantic hammer. Kael’s eyes widened at the sheer size of those arms as they came down with enough force to crush everything beneath them.
The blob didn’t flee. Instead, it expanded, radiant light erupting from its tiny body as it swelled into a massive sphere of brilliance
The two forces met in the middle of the void. There was no sound, no shockwave, nothing but the space between them simply vanishing.
A disk of pure nothing formed where they collided, an empty circle where even the idea of space had been erased. The void around it warped violently as the disk kept expanding.
Kael suddenly felt himself pulled toward it. His body lurched forward.
"What?"
He fought to resist, but there was nothing beneath his feet to push against. An invisible force dragged him closer and closer to the place where existence itself seemed to have been wiped out.
Then the golden sphere pulsed, and everything stopped, Kael froze, the entity froze, even the expanding disk seemed to pause, as if time itself had been forced still.
Then the disk reversed. The nothing folded inward, collapsing on itself, the enormous circle shrinking smaller and smaller until it became a single tiny point of blinding light.
It shot toward the supreme entity.
The entity raised one hand and caught it.
BOOM!
The condensed point of nothing detonated in its palm, golden energy tearing through the entity’s arm and shredding it into streams of golden mist.
But the next moment, the mist gathered itself back together, flesh and energy knitting piece by piece until the arm was whole again, as if it had never been touched.
