The air around Malacar thickened with anticipation as he turned towards the direction of Astralith and Joker's ongoing battle, only to find his path abruptly blocked. Rogue Mage Zack, alongside Malumnox, emerged as formidable obstacles. Zack's voice dripped with sarcasm as he greeted Malacar. "Thanks for handling Kaipo for us," he quipped. "But now it's our turn to join this little war of jewels."165Please respect copyright.PENANAzjocFcFUSh
Malacar couldn't help but laugh, the sound booming across the shattered landscape. "You think you can scratch me?" he scoffed, eyeing them with a mixture of amusement and disdain.165Please respect copyright.PENANAktkozEzfwP
Zack and Malumnox didn’t waver. They simultaneously transformed into their final forms: Zack became The Astral Swordmaster, his figure cloaked in a radiant, cosmic energy, while Malumnox assumed the mantle of Abyssal Sovereign, his presence a dark mirror to Zack’s luminescence.165Please respect copyright.PENANA8TIADdyHIH
Zack cast a glance towards the unconscious Kaipo, remarking, "He’s nothing without his anti-magic tricks," a hint of disdain in his voice. "And we’ve got a little something for that, should he wake up."165Please respect copyright.PENANAaPqgIoPRxb
Without warning, the battlefield erupted as Zack and Malumnox launched a coordinated assault on Malacar. Zack, with incredible speed, closed the distance, unleashing his Celestial Fury Slash. The air around the blade distorted, ripping through the very fabric of reality as it struck Malacar.165Please respect copyright.PENANAfQv8t0rUS2
Almost simultaneously, Malumnox followed up with Void Annihilation, conjuring spheres of void that threatened to erase everything they touched. The attacks landed with devastating effect, but Malacar merely laughed off the damage, his confidence unshaken.165Please respect copyright.PENANAWfh3HEQrRJ
"If this is the path you choose, then let the true battle begin," Malacar declared, his voice thundering across the realm.165Please respect copyright.PENANAkXdP6bRimY
In response, Malacar tapped into the depths of his Chrono Continuum Jewel, unleashing a series of time-altering abilities. Temporal Mastery allowed him to manipulate the flow of time around Zack and Malumnox, slowing their movements to a crawl. With Epoch Control, he reshaped the battlefield, echoes of past and future clashing in the present.165Please respect copyright.PENANAsq1C27v2G7
Instantaneous Aging was deployed against Zack, attempting to accelerate his aging process, while Temporal Stasis aimed to freeze Malumnox in time. Finally, Future Casting showed Malacar fleeting glimpses of potential outcomes, guiding his strategies and attacks.165Please respect copyright.PENANAqZ0IgyApSB
As the chapter closed, the skies above the Land of Spade bore witness to a conflict that transcended the boundaries of time and space. Malacar, empowered by his mastery over time, faced off against Zack and Malumnox, who were determined to rewrite the narrative of power in their favor. The stakes had never been higher as each combatant pushed their abilities to the limit, shaping the destiny of not just themselves but the universe around them.165Please respect copyright.PENANA26SQ1nphkn
