Chapter 272: 272. Reduce to Oblivion
Grey Orion gritted his teeth and unleashed the black hole that he taken inside his dimension space.
A black abyss, perfectly round and eerily silent, suddenly appeared before him, radiating a dark, oppressive power. The moment it appeared, the surrounding water was sucked toward it with an unstoppable force, spiraling into the void.
But the abyss wasn't satisfied with just the water—it began devouring everything around it. Trees, rocks, even the very air were pulled in, vanishing without a trace. The pull was so overwhelming that even space itself began to warp and collapse, as if reality was being torn apart, leaving only a deep, consuming darkness behind.
"This!"
Rosaline was shocked by what she witnessed. She and the others were waiting for Grey Orion to enter his dimension or become intangible to survive their attack, but they never expected him to literally spit out the black hole that Merlin had used earlier.
However, Rosaline could tell that the black hole before her was much stronger and more unstable than before.
"Even I'm getting pulled in."
She couldn't believe the power of this black hole.
"Everyone, retreat as far as you can!"
Morkel's shout reached the others, and they quickly retreated. But all of their faces were grim.
"Isn't this Merlin's?" Morkel asked, his voice trembling with solemnity.
Rosaline nodded. "He used this attack earlier—Absolute Space. It caused enough spatial disturbance to alert you guys, but it suddenly vanished in the middle of perfecting the technique. I thought he hadn't mastered it fully and it disappeared."
She looked at Grey Orion with a grim expression. "But it turns out he took the entire attack inside his separate space."
She added, "And for some reason, the power and scale of this black hole are countless times stronger than before."
Morkel frowned at her words.
"Damn it!"
He cursed. Instead of the situation going their way, it had worsened.
Kitsuri soon joined them and asked, "But how did it suddenly appear here? It felt like teleportation. It's different from how he enters his separate space. And why didn't the Space Teleporter work? I already planted it deep beneath the ocean. If he used his other space, we should be inside it now, but we're still here."
The instant Grey Orion disappeared, the black hole vanished as if it had never existed. But the peace was fleeting. A moment later, the entire ocean and surrounding land began to cave in, drawn toward the spot where the black hole had been.
The force was unstoppable. After swallowing the vast ocean, it turned its hunger to the land, tearing trees from their roots and obliterating forests. The ground cracked and crumbled, disappearing into the void.
And that was just the start. The suction extended far beyond, pulling in distant lands, once-green forests, and the ruins of destroyed cities.
The destruction swept across the continent, even reaching the Emperor Heaven Palace. Its towering spires and grand halls were sucked into the void, along with everyone inside, their screams lost to the darkness.
But the Ten Seats intervened at the last moment and took those in the palace away on a void shuttle.
Just after that, everything was sucked in.
If someone were to look at the planet from space, they'd see it shrinking rapidly, its surface collapsing inward as if being devoured from within. The sight was terrifying—a planet unraveling before their eyes, on the brink of total destruction.
For the Ten Seats, witnessing this catastrophe up close, the fear was overwhelming.
They stood frozen, watching in disbelief as the planet contracted at an alarming speed. Continents and oceans folded in on themselves, disappearing into the void. The collapse was happening so fast that they could only reach one chilling conclusion: the planet would be gone—either reduced to atoms or swallowed entirely—in just a minute or two.
There was nothing they could do but stand there, powerless, as the world they knew was consumed by the unstoppable force that had been unleashed.
But not entirely. There was still one thing that remained: the medallion, still shining with golden light, with Luna.
"It's gone!"
Rosaline, Morkel, Suzan, Armin, Kitsuri, and Pyro were all shocked and devastated. Their faces were pale as they took a moment to process what they had just witnessed.
They couldn't believe that a planet—a 3-star planet—was destroyed in their presence just like that.
Not only in their presence—one might say a blunder of theirs caused a planet to disappear from the horizon.
