Hell's Academy

Chapter 212: Fighting Armecolith, Finale

Armecolith had done a lot of thinking in the last 100 days, but had made a crucial decision in the last 5.

When he saw Gorgolith and his older brother, he realized almost instantly that he was in grave danger. If the four stronger Night Lords got out of their array that sealed them in place, they'd almost instantly come to get an explanation about why he'd left them there.

Of course, he could kill Gorgolith, so he couldn't use his knowledge of arrays to free them, but he didn't need to do that. All he needed to do is create a domain that would cause them even a trace of fear! His domain, though not perfect yet, had a very special feature that a Horned or Varlen or Aresoul Domain could ever have. 

A hundred doors appeared around Armecolith while he laughed. 

"You know, Howard. I never planned on telling you what my Domain can do, but I might as well now while you also release your domain. This domain has a hundred doors that connect to my millions of Archelon Zombies. From this moment onward, you won't only be fighting me, but an army! And now, those shadow giants you easily brushed off, they're going to be at least 10 times stronger! What are you going to do about it?"

"I've been holding back too," Howard's Emperor's Ki began to emanate from his body. The next moment, over a thousand Ghost Swords appeared floating in various spaces. The two domains, at this moment, seemed to be fighting against each other. One made of pure light the other pure darkness! 

Domains of around similar strength tended to push each other back. Much like how a seesaw would balance out if two riders were the same weight. This was called domain repulsion. The stronger domain would inevitably dwarf the other domain and push it back towards its user.

This, when Gravanal had been fighting, is one of the reasons he survived against Yesran and his three brothers. Though their domain was definitely capable of unleashing more damage, his Dreamland Domain was at least five times more suppressive. 

Therefore, his domain ended up taking up more space, and because of that he could unleash more attacks, more Ki Projections, from that area.

Yet, with Howard, right now, and Armecolith, it was the other way around. Armecolith's shadow domain almost instantly eclipsed Howard's domain! There was, after all, a difference of a few thousand years of training!

While this was happening, thousands of Shadow beings seemed to appear around Armecolith holding swords while dozens of Archelon Zombies began to appear marching forward.

Howard sighed, and took a deep breath. He didn't imagine it would get so hard so fast.

"Well, I was almost a 100 percent sure you didnt' have a domain. What a surprise. Do you think you can beat me now?" Howard smiled at Armecolith. "Do you think you've won?"

"I already won the second you appeared," Armecolith said, his shadows enveloping the Archelon Zombies fleshy bodies and causing them to float. "Unlike Necrolith, I can strengthen the Archelon Zombies around me. You-you have no chance against me! Look at your domain! You what? Can control 500 meters while I can control 5000 meters?"

"I-I have one part of my domain left that I didn't show you," Howard smiled before his hand moved gently forward. "I-I made this part when I felt my mother's ki for the last time. It-it's the only unique part of my domain that I didn't learn from someone else. I call it the heart of my domain. Though I know my mother isn't with me anymore, I can tell she wanted me to understand it."

"Your mother? Aren't you a pathetic one," Armecolith created a few thousand more scythes in his domain while he looked at Howard's domain getting more and more suppressed. "Wwell, tell me this? Do you think that one part will stop my domain from crushing yours. Do you think it will stop me from killing your grandfather?"

"I think you're pathetic," Howard said before a large powerful surge of Ki began to spread across his body. "My-my mother is making me stronger. You-you by hating everything are losing the true meaning of why you should acquire strength! You acquire strength to protect people! You-you're an abomination! Something I must destroy with my whole heart! Now activate! Great Heart of my Emperor's Domain!"

Boom!

As soon as Howard said those words, what appeared to be a floating woman glowing in all white appeared in front of him. Though she was small, she seemed to have a white dress and two powerful beaming eyes. Yet, from her appearance, Howard's domain seemed to shoot forth and push away Harkel's Domain. 

Hundreds of his shadow giants disappeared while his domain shrunk further and further. What was happening? He held out his hand and then his entire domain blurred and attacked Howard. He-he felt his confidence slipping! At this rate, his chances of winning were 30 percent!

"I-I have to flee! This isn't good!" Armecolith watched the maiden Howard created from his domain slowly began to spin. "What the hell is that thing he created anyway? It strengthened his domain by at least 20 times!"

"This-this is called the heart for a reason." Howard said with a smile while his Ghost Swords slashed through almost every Archelon Zombies with ease. His Ghost Hands slapped away all the incoming scythes while a smile appeared on his face. "I-I found out a long time ago that I got stronger when fighting for others, and on the last moment I was creating this domain, I decided to try and create one unique part."

"I-I had just felt my mother appear and disappear, so I figured, why not try and make something that would make me stronger, like her love for me did. This-this is in her honor! Die! Die so that other people you would kill in the future can still feel love! Take this! Emperor's Domain, Empowerment!"

Howard smiled while the part of the domain that represented his mother slowly flew into his body before his strength surged. 

Almost instantly, the domain that Harkel had seemed to shoot back over a 1000 meters while Howard's Ghost Swords slashed through everything in sight. 

He-he couldnt' believe it! How-how did Howard suddenly get so strong? Just because he loved someone! This was a joke! This had nothing to do with love! Regardless, he had to escape! If Howard's domain really suppressed his domain this much, then it meant it was at least 10 times as strong as his domain! How? How could Howard be so strong? He was so young?! Was he really the demon king candidate. Should he have just left him alone, but then? What about his dreams of taking over the Furnace! No, he could still beat him!

"Hundred doorways open! Archelon Zombies destory him!"

"Hmph, I'm already behind you," Howard seemed to glow with a terrifying white light before his entire body got covered with Silver Ki. "And just so you know, I can only use the heart of my domain once a month at most, but for killing you it's worth it."

Boom!

Howard, with the strength of what seemed the world behind him, sent such a powerful attack into Armecolith's body that the world seemed to split behind him. His domain almost instantly dissipated while almost all of his skulls instantly shattered.

Dropping onto his knees, Howard's fist blurred into him almost a hundred times before he began to turn to dust. He tried to regenerate, but it was pointless! How could this be? How could he have underestimated Howard's power.

"I-I really saw something good in you. Maybe if you ever get a second chance, you'll find true love next time," Howard smiled while the white maiden that represented the heart of his domain left his body. "Yet, until then, I'm just glad you're gone," Howard punched one more time before the last trace of Armecolith disappeared. "Haha, I did it grandfather, aren't you so proud!"

Howard smiled and looked up as the last part of the domain falling down above him. In just a second, his grandfather would be back! He couldn't wait. However, in the distance, he felt an ominous feeling. A feeling that he couldn't explain.

"So, you can only use that ability once in a while. Thanks for that gift, Howard," A woman in a white dress smiled before she started to disappear. "I will let Garan from Arthraku Nation know immediately about what happened between you and Oclen. I expect, by the next month, you'll be resting in peace with your mother, young one."
