The fight was lasting far longer than I wanted, my mana was being constantly depleted and then being filled back up by one of my family members, not that they didn't also have their own share of trouble. Dealing with aliens while also making sure people remained safe wasn't easy.
But that is why I am here, while my firepower may be lacking, there is something I excel at, healing and damage prevention.
Every single step I took, buildings rebuild themself, as if time reserved, with every single wave of my hand, people that were almost dead, clinically dead, but still had a soul inside of their body, or even barely scratched were healed back to peak condition, and wherever my eyes landed, people felt stronger and faster, heroes moved faster or landed bigger hits, civialns helped each other escape from under the rubbles I still hadn't removed.
I had become unstoppable; whatever injury landed on me got ignored, whoever got too close had their chemical structure changed to the water, so I continued moving, helping, saving lives.
The migraines were ignored, and the pain was suppressed, the anger got covered by focus, now wasn't the moment for emotions or something as mundane as pain, what was needed now was pure focus and precision, a building being rebuilt too fast could lead to a hero being by something, a misplaced healing could lead to someone else being healed too late and dying, using too magic too rapidly could make everything I was doing lag for a second and lead to hundreds of deaths.
I moved, and healed, and fought, no matter, until someone got too close, but I stopped myself from killing him when I felt my mana senses warning me of his inclination towards good.
" What the fuck is going on?" I said while landing on the ground to talk to Captain America.
" Big alien invasion, the portal you closed was their main one, but they still have several smaller ones. Loki tried to conquer Earth."
" Again? Isn't this the 4th time?"
" Don't ask, kid, I stopped counting." He had said so while sending his shield to an alien, splitting him in two; the shield then ricocheted back to him, landing perfectly on his arm.
"... That shoulden't be physically possible, but who am I to ask questions about physics when I have a dragon pet?"
Just as he was about to say something else, another big tear in the sky opened, leading to the entrance of dozens of whale-shaped spaceships.
" Catch me if I fall." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽
Before Cap could say something, I had already flown to the sky, my wings covering the light landing of the spaceships, as several magical circles formed behind me, my mind split into several versions of itself as my throat structure changed to become able to produce different sounds all the same time, for those who had no ill intentions, the words simply sounded like gibberish, for the ones who knew magic they understood what I was doing, and the ones who the spell was pointed towards? Fear crawled under their skin.
All the circles fused into one, my voice becoming one once more, and as I said the last word, the sky tore open.
A big tear in the sky leading to a place of unlimited darkness and impossible horrors, a beast of endless madness and absolute chaos, a beast who were a fusion of dimensional and chaos mana, two things I had absolute control over.
Several tentacles came from the tear, each being covered in several pupils filled with darkness, and the ends of said tentacles are mouths covered with thousands of teeth; they moved like snakes, with speeds that were incomprehensible by human standards, and they headed for the spaceships and tore into them with a gluttony only belonging to beings such as these.
Where once stood an army of skyscraper-sized spaceships, now stood nothing, just like a cut from a movie; the tentacles disappeared, as if they never existed.
Talking about things not existing, my current mana pool was gone, and if I were to use any more mana from my familiars, they would be suffering more than I was currently doing.
The wings that had carried me until that moment disappeared, making my body free-fall. Fortunately, Obsidian swooped right in time to catch my fall, making me land on his stomach.
" Thanks, buddy, free-falling without a parachute isn't something I wish to do right now."
Obsidian's head moved towards me, and he produced a worried whimper as he shared my sense of emptiness and pain. My stamina was almost gone, my MP was zeroed, and the only thing close to full was my HP. Thankfully, One with Mana was already doing its job and getting me return into shape.
But time wasn't on my side with time.
Everything screamed at me, mana, my senses, other familiars, and some of the heroes.
And so I did the only thing I could at the moment with the little mana I had recovered, save Obsidian.
The dragon screamed when he felt me using my mana to shift his position to somewhere else. I could feel his pain and sadness; I could feel every single one pains and sadness, their anger, their sorrow, the weakness they felt. They were emotions that I also once shared, and that I am currently feeling as a portal opens above me and lets an enormous ray of pure energy cover my body and destroy all of it.
Where once stood Leshy, the Saviour of Mutants, Destroyer of Worlds, and Demi-God of Mana, now stood nothing.
The silence and tension in the air could have been cut with a knife as everything stopped moving, even the aliens did so as anotherworldly force pushed them to stop.
A rumble slowly filled everyone's ears, the dimension started to crumble, everyone's blood went chaotic, the ground broke as earthquakes happened all over the universe, small reality changes happened all over the universe, water turned into lava, oxygen into fire, every single star in the universe began burning brighter than they ever did, an unstoppable anger making them burn with hate, every single plant and animal in the universe became rabid as they felt their father die.
And what was Mana doing? The first thing Adrian had become connected to? The thing that had changed him the most? The thing that had caused his rise to power, and the most important building block in this universe?
It stood calmly as it waited, for it knew that this wasn't the end.
Thanks for the support from everyone. The list is getting quite long, so sorry if I can't keep up with it.
AN: Is this the end for our hero?
