Chapter 2019: Desperate Survival
------
Chaos was faster than Drake, touching his face and instantly turning him completely black, as he rapidly faded into ashes.
In that second where the Decay was about to reach his soul, he swiftly swapped bodies with one of the many he had spread down onto the surface.
FLASH!
However, as he moved at lightning speed, Chaos saw him.
Yes, a technique that only took an instant to swamp his soul to another body, she saw him as if time was going slowly.
Her brain began overflowing with Chaotic Energy, increasing her thought process to immense levels.
And of course, she had a body to go along with her fast thought process, as she moved faster than his soul did!
"I won't let you do that again."
"What…?!"
Drake's soul eyes widened, in that instant he was about to take over a new body, he saw Chaos divided into six.
All six of them rapidly conjured a giant wall of Decay Fog, forming a cube of black chaotic energies constantly swirling.
"{Chaos Cube}"
"Fuck!"
Drake gasped in disbelief; his soul was trapped!
TRUUUM!
The Chaos Cube rapidly closed, Decay began to devour his own soul.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck!"
As he felt his very existence beginning to disappear.
"Become one with me, Drake! You already took my soul, take my body."
"What?! But that's…!"
"Do you have any other option?!"
"Dammit!"
Drake's soul was infused into Muramasa himself, as the power of Eternal Soul manifested at an incredible level.
FLAAAASH!
Drake desperately infused his own Soul into the body of Muramasa, temporarily becoming a katana himself.
It didn't change shape or form though, it remained as a sword, it felt strange, and the longer he stayed here, the longer Drake felt he was slowly getting further away from his body.
If he remained in this sword for too long, he would probably die either way!
But right now, this was the only thing he could do.
"{Limitless Path: Eternal Soul Echo}!"
His body moved around, spinning and unleashing black and white light everywhere, manifesting a giant, swirling galaxy around him.
"{Soul Galaxy}!"
SLAAAAASH!
"Hmm?"
The eyes within Chaos' wings widened, as her Chaos Cube was suddenly split apart!
"Impossible. You can do that?"
She was flabbergasted, as she saw Drake flying away as a sword itself!
"So he infused his soul into a sword? Just how desperate was he?"
Although she was surprised, Chaos smiled.
"Oh well, that's perfect. It means that we are pushing him back a lot more."
Chaos instantly twisted and warped space, infecting with it her energies and spreading a pseudo domain everywhere.
"I won't let you escape."
She reached Drake before he could even approach any of his reserve bodies, as a hundred of gigantic hands made of black, purple, and red chaos reached him, each hand with a crimson eye in the middle of their gigantic palms.
TRUUUM! TRUUUM! TRUUUM!
As they moved through space, they warped and tore it apart, reaching Drake within an instant as distance no longer was a problem for Chaos.
"{Eternal Soul Echo}!"
Drake felt strange, his powers constantly transformed and expanded the more he remained within Muramasa, as the sword's soul melded more and more with his own.
"{Blade Soul Storm}!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Until suddenly, his single metallic body exploded, dividing into hundreds of katanas and cutting through all the hands approaching him one after another.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As the Chaotic Hands exploded and shattered space, Chaos approached Drake within a split second, her hand about to grasp his main body.
CLAAAASH!
"Hm?"
However, Chaos was intercepted, Drake's senses were sharper than ever before, as he moved his blade at lightning speed and…
"{Void Soul}!"
SLAAASH!
Fusing the power of all-consuming void with his sword and the eternal soul techniques, all tied with Limitless Ascension…
Drake managed to truly damage Chaos for the first time!
"Ah…"
Chaos eyes opened for the first time, as she saw her left arm flying away, black, miasma-like blood coming from the wound.
Drake managed to cut off her arm!
"I got it!"
He quickly rushed towards her arm, aiming to consume it with Gluttony to gain more power and even things out.
And yet…
"Hmph."
Chaos hand suddenly stopped falling, staying in midair and then beginning to mutate, growing countless hands, fingers, and eyes.
"GRUOOOHHHH!"
"W-What?!"
Drake gasped in disbelief, as Chaos' hand turned into an aberrant, eldritch monstrosity, attacking him with a furious swipe!
CLAAAASH!
"Ugh…!"
The sword fell from the skies, as Chaos and her Arm chased after him.
"What? Did you think it would be easy to defeat me? That you could even hope to devour me? Your Devour has no effect on me to begin with. The Power of Chaos is above Demonic Powers."
Chaos taunted Drake, as her hand and her monstrous arm familiar were about to tear Drake to shreds!
As Drake faced such an impossible enemy, without a body, with only his soul.
What could he do now?!
Muramasa's voice had gone silent for some reason, and he feared he might be taking too much burden by holding his entire soul.
Drake was growing more and more desperate.
He had to go beyond or die trying.
There was no other option.
There was nothing else to do.
"We'll see about that, Chaos! I will be the one to decide whether it works or not."
It was now or never.
He concentrated on everything he had within the center of his very being, as he faced Chaos and her monster.
"{Limitless Path}!"
His sword body suddenly grew several times larger, as the power of Eternal Soul shone the brightest ever.
His surroundings twisted, resembling outer space, as stars shone brightly everywhere, while being surrounded by a giant nebula.
"{Eternal Soul Nova}!!!"
FLAAAASH!
"Ngh?!"
Chaos groaned in pain, the light was so intense, her body began to burn!
"W-What?!"
She was shocked, as her monstrous beast started burning by the light, screaming in agony.
Drake was burning his own soul to create this level of heat, sacrificing his own soul in the process of doing that"
"HAAAAAHHH!"
As Drake roared furiously, dozens of tiny slimes reached him, fusing with Muramasa and him, rapidly beginning to turn into flesh and bones.
FLUOSH!
