Fifteen storeys tall.
verted into meters, it is more than 55 meters aboveground. In respect to gravity, it takes more than five seds to nd to the ground.
‘A human ego. I'll see how it goes.’
Aleph was aware of his sudden as. Instead of striking from afar with one blow, he forsook his stealth advantage.
All of it just to see whether the Current Era's situation could be replicated.
A few seds had passed. The fifth herrscher—a gray-haired girl—finally noticed the person from above.
Immediately, the temperature around her radius dropped sharply. She half-expected for that person to be turned into an ice block, or suffer from frostbite, yet…
Crack-!
Buzz-!
A metaphysical sound rang as two domains cshed. In the end, she was not able to directly affect Aleph's body, only his surroundings.
“It's that human..!”
Her pupils shrank. From Anna's knowledge, she knew about the fourth herrscher's demise. It was an insta-kill, something that shouldn't have been possible for humans.
Just then, a shog thing occurred.
Aleph's figure disappeared suddenly. When he reappeared, it was half a meter behind her.
Bam-!
His feet sunk into the crete. The momentum brought by his fall was transferred when he blinked.
Not all of these momentum were killed as he prepared for a roundhouse kick.
His entire body spun, bringing these remnant forces at his feet.
Anna only saw a blur before her body flew like a ragdoll.
Bam-!
Boom-!
Her feet remaiu the ground with the help of the ice she created.
Shatter-!
Shatter-!
Her entire path was filled with ice shields that were inteo gradually kill the impa her body.
By the time the fifteenth ice shield broke, she raight into a building.
Boom-!
“Huff..!”
Anna could not believe it. The figure of a mere human in her eyes turned into a demon.
It was rightfully so, with Aleph using his cursed energy at its highest output to enhance his entire body. His capacity rivaled that of a new Herrscher's!
“I refuse… to believe this!”
Blood dripped on the er of her mouth. The honkai energy that kept ing out of her core ent frantically patg her external wounds with ice.
As she tried to recover, the entire ndscape ged. Her inability to properly trol a herrscher's authority limited her to altering a huge portion of this city.
The temperature dropped even lower. All the undead and honkai beast in her radius were turned into ice blocks.
Everything happened within two seds.
Anna was feeling smug about it when a familiar figure reappeared in front of her.
Aleph, with MOTH’s standard battlesuit (i.e., a durable skinsuit), tried to grab her.
The alteration of temperature became the worst around Anna. The molecules in her viity had their movements slowed down. It wasn't a mere deprivation of heat—it pletely turhem into a state.
However…
Shatter-!
Crack-!
Slowly, a series of crabsp;appeared on her impregnable fortress. An imaginary white light was g her authority out. No matter what she did, she couldn't affect his body directly.
Aleph's hands became a bit paler when it touched her neck.
Everything happened ihan three seds. For the sed time, Anna was not able to react.
“Stop. I know you uand me… uhers.”
A cold tone, parable to her winternd, came out of him.
It was met by a sarcastic ugh.
“Huh. You are askio spare these lowlives? What if—”
She couldn't even finish speaking when she was thrown like a ragdoll. Her sight turned into a blur as she felt the weightlessness.
‘He fell for it! Then…’
Anna did the exact opposite of what she was told. Major Anna's memories were extremely precious to her. It opened up numerous ways to win a fight due to her specialized training in Fire MOTH.
If someone seemed invincible, the first thing to be targeted is their mentality.
She was about to expand her nd of frost throughout the ey when she jolted.
Anna, no, the fifth herrscher's trol over her authority was disrupted.
“You human..! You already asked for it! Why are you being hypocritiow?!”
Anna's body was sent flying to a buildioreys tall.
“This is truly the simplest way…”
Aleph returhe Herrscher's gaze with his own. She was firmly stu the tenth storey's walls.
“If I didn't have the surgery, it'll be twice as difficult. The achievements it gave me, too…”
{Sing finished.}
{Result: The power you came in tact with pced several targets in a state of entropy. Its effects ma as a form of ice. There is a high ce of its user not knowing its true potential…}
Great Sage listed off the results of the Herrscher of Ice’s powers.
‘It wasn't specified in the game… but herrschers are on another level.’
If it weren't for Aleph's extremely tough body further enhanced with cursed energy, he would end up like the inal killer of the fifth herrscher who ended up suffering from severe frostbites.
Moreover…
‘Their powers are enough to be put on that list.’
The knowledge he got from the sanctum allowed him to see how other worlds viewed certain powers.
There are abilities so dangerous they created a “Super High Risk Esper Ability” list. All of the herrschers’ authorities would fit in that list.
Unfortunately for them, they were all killed in the early stages.
Psshk-!
The temperature on their battlefield dropped once again after fluctuating. It was several times colder than the peak of the tallest mountain in Aleph's previous life, Mount Everest. The infrastructures began to be stuck with ice.
‘I o vince her… or let her human side e out. Too bad I only have ohing…’
Aleph's figure disappeared. He leaped more than forty meters high, leaving numerous cracks on the frosted t.
For the third time, the Herrscher of Ice repared. A ing pn ut into pce.
“W-wait a moment!”
Bam-!
Boom-!
Crack-!
Aleph's fist sunk into the t near her face. The entire wall colpsed in an iffy. Anna's body fell to the office’s floor. Nobody resent except for a few undead—former humans on their supposed night shift.
She looked up and saw his expressionless gaze. She couldn't glean anything from his expressions.
“I… there's a…”
In hopes of pulling out a fast ohe herrscher acted.
{Result: There are 70.82% ces of her lying. The shaking of her irises indicate…}
The world remained blue in Aleph's eyes. Not once had he celed Elemental Sight during the entire csh.
He was able to see through Anna’s past image. Her expressions indicated that she deliberately pnned for this.
As such…
“For the st time, I advise you to stop doing anything… while I still have the patieo wait.” He spoke ftly.
“Let her out, herrscher.”
