He had to first tear down their mind and Origin before he could easily take over their souls, and Ragnar's defenses had barely been torn as Noah chose to carry out a two-pronged attack.
One was his deadliest attack that relied solely on the strength of his soul.
[Subjugate].
The skill that actually came out to be the ultimate decider of today's battle as if Ragnar shook it off- everything would be for naught!
His other form of attack…was the Cosmic Ender of Reality that lent him its mental strength while dividing half of its attention to cast deadly skills against the now stationary Champion of Reality.
The Undead Ender was joined by the three Archaic Kings as while frozen in a mental battle with Noah, the Champion of Reality had to take attacks on all sides!
Both he and Noah were still as it truly turned into a battle of the strength of their souls, with the side that gave out first losing everything as over time…the defenses on Ragnar who was about to change to his ultimate form were slowly being ground down.
BZZZT!
The space between the gazes of the two beings fluctuated madly and with immense waves of deadly soul power as their battle was actually occurring in a place where even the watching Europa could not see at this moment.
Hidden in the folds of space, this Primordial gripped her bucket of popcorn as she ate from it with increasing frequency- her eyes blazing as she watched the silent clash of willpower and souls between two beings!
"Bah, why did you take it down to such a stalemate of souls? If Ragnar had achieved his ultimate form, this battle would have continued for another day as I gathered more data!"
…!
Her thoughts were on other things entirely as her eyes flashed with ingenuity, her thoughts actually revolving around what she had seen in this battle within the few minutes that it was going on.
"I need to reduce the time it takes to adapt to new situations…even though evolution is a stupendous concept, if you can't adapt in time to gain the resistance you need- you will still die!"
She made notes on how to improve her system as she nodded to herself, her gaze not being able to see the mental battle currently occurring between Noah and Ragnar!
In an unseen mental world.
BZZZT!
Cerulean blue lightning covered more than half of this world as at its very center, a figure of a human being could be seen standing opposite to a huge ancient looking bird that held ten pairs of wings and three heads that each held sparkling purple crowns.
The ancient beast had abundant feathers and scales that shone with a purple luster- its three pairs of eyes on its head shining with a somber light as this existence was the true Archaic Beast Form of the Champion of Reality!
He wasn't of the human race as Europa had said, but this creature was still majestic as an Archaic Beast as its three purple crowned draconic heads glanced at Noah coldly.
"What is all this for?"
The voice of the Champion of Reality reverberated in the mental world as it saw the countless arcs of blue light threateningly rush over to occupy everything.
Noah's figure was filled with utmost seriousness as towards this Champion's question, he only replied calmly while making sure to use his anomaly of a soul to devour everything in this mental world to be his!
"For your System. For your power! I have no qualms with you as I can promise you after your Subjugation, a whole new world will be opened."
His words were laced with soul attacks as they thundered down, the arcs of cerulean light spreading out even further as the three purple crowned heads of Ragnar blinked calmly!
It could feel its immobilized body being injured more and more by the Ender of Reality outside, while its soul was trapped inside this mental space as its defenses were also ground down.
It was a terrifying attack that just turned out to succeed because the strength of his soul was not enough to stand against this being during the initiation of this attack- and just because of that…the whole battle was decided!
This being that wasn't even in the Cosmic Realm actually had a soul more powerful than an existence in such a realm, making one wonder exactly what he had done to achieve it.
As the shocking battle was decided by such a simple yet ultimate factor of the soul, Ragnar found himself exceedingly calm as while watching his mental world be devoured, he asked a question that had been bothering him all this time.
"Did this have anything to do with Europa? Is she watching right now?"
Even though it was calm, sorrow could be felt within his voice as he thought of how Europa was the one to tell him to send his Archaic Kings into the Ancestral Treasure Dimension, and everything had spilled out from there as he had to know.
As he was about to be dominated under the mind of someone else, Ragnar wanted to confirm if this was the case!
"Yes."
WAA!
The confirmation from Noah was the strongest soul attack to arrive yet as the cerulean arcs of blue light destroyed any purple radiance emanating from Ragnar's soul, nearly devouring him whole as his voice continued to echo out!
"I see."
His three pairs of eyes gazed at the storm of blue lightning as he locked his gaze onto Noah's brilliant eyes.
It was a gaze of resignation as it sealed the fate of the Champion of Reality, but Ragnar did it nonetheless as he had to look at the depths of the eyes of the being before him to say his last message!
"She nonchalantly toyed with me and then threw me away when something more interesting appeared. I will warn you now that no matter how beautiful or enticing she seems…she will do the same to you."
RUMBLE!
The cerulean arcs of light descended with even more ferocity, Noah's mental state being unperturbed as the last words of Ragnar continued to come out!
"Be careful of the untouchable Primordial that makes herself seem ever so close within reach. Be careful that like me, you do not perish in the hands of the next toy that she finds more interesting than you."
…!
With such words being left behind, the entire mental word was encompassed by a gorgeous blue light.
OOOONG!
With the expansion of the cerulean light…a Champion was dominated!
