World End: The Successor's Contract

Chapter 76 The Final Fight



The wind blew as the warm sun gazed down on the wasteland, fire burning the ground and broken equipment laying scattered everywhere.

In the midst of this unpredictable chaos, stood two men, one willing to take on anyone to save his world and another who thrives on destroying what is left of the world.

Two opposite mindsets, driven by the same motivation and passion with neither side wanting to give in to the other.

One of them, Zeno, the Successor, who was chosen by the Goddess herself to rid the world of evil and another is a demon, born from sin and given the title pride.

"Lucifer, you seem to be enjoying yourself." Zeno voiced out, walking toward Lucifer with flames surrounding his arms.

Lucifer laughed, "From that tone, I can guess you remembered." He uttered glaring back at Zeno almost instantly, "Great, now I don't have to explain why I want you dead,".

"This is a path you can choose to sway away from Lucifer, mistakes can still be rectified, I'm sure the goddess would…"

"Would what?! Uhn Zeno! What? You don't get the right to tell me what's wrong after you took everything away from me!" Lucifer raged.

"You think you're better than me, is that it?! All I asked from you back then was your loyalty and trust and what did you do… you betrayed me,".

"We've had this conversation before." Zeno uttered calmly, "You set the demon of sins free, Lucifer, no crime comes without punishment.

Others learn from their punishment but you chose to take the other route and seek revenge, hurting the innocent and thriving on destruction… I don't pledge loyalty to someone like that,".

"Is that so?"

Zeno sighed and reached out to Lucifer, "You're still my friend, and I'm willing to help you but you have to face your punishment first only then can you…"

"Don't give me such BS!" Lucifer screamed.

"You think I gave a shit! No one no one has been able to get under my skin as you have… I loathe you, despise you, I wish I could watch you die… and I'd be the one to do it!".

Zeno pushed his hand down, "Should I take that as a no then?" He asked calmly.

Lucifer glared, "You know what… I think it's good this is happening. 700 years ago, our fight was interrupted so we never really knew a winner… I say we try it… I wanna see what the freaking Successor is capable of!".

Whoosh!

In almost an instant, Zeno appeared in front of Lucifer, with his blue eyes glowing and his right hand clenched with the intent to punch.

Lucifer was shocked, the uncalculated speed at which Zeno used to get close to him even at such a distance was unbelievable.

Lucifer immediately snapped out of his thoughts and closed both his arms together to block the punch thrown by Zeno.

The punch pushed Lucifer back, with his arm brimming with smoke from the blue flames, leaving Lucifer still shocked by the earlier action.

He slowly lifted his hands down only to see Zeno appear beside him, "What the he-!".

Zeno placed his palm over Lucifer's face and slammed him to the ground while hurling Lucifer's head into the ground as he ran.

He sped past Uta and was headed toward the exit of the Carnon. All of a sudden Lucifer yelled and twisted his legs around Zeno's arm before using them to bring Zeno to the ground.

Lucifer had his leg on Zeno's leg and began dragging him on the floor while he flew. Lucifer's face was still badly burnt from the blue flames but it was healing.

Once they got to a point, Zeno slammed his hand on the floor and a huge wall appeared in front of Lucifer.

Lucifer took a sharp turn only to meet a magic circle waiting for him in front, he didn't panic, instead, he grabbed Zeno's legs and tossed him in front of the magic circle with a smile.

Before the magic circle could fire any beam, Zeno waited till the last second of the blast before he disappeared, leaving Lucifer to face the blast unexpectedly.

Lucifer immediately placed a frontal barrier that blocked the blast, and while he was doing this he noticed his position was getting covered by a huge shadow.

He looked up to see Zeno falling to his position with a huge rock with him. The rock collided causing a huge force to spread around the area.

Zeno landed on the ground and slowly started working towards the boulder, he used his hand to slightly lift the boulder giving Lucifer a chance.

Lucifer pushed the boulder up completely and grabbed Zeno on the neck before whooshing to the sky.

"I'm gonna make you pay for that!" Lucifer yelled.

They flew past the clouds before Lucifer let go of Zeno and fired multiple fast moving spikes at Zeno.

Zeno flew around the clouds, dodging all the spikes swiftly before flying toward Lucifer with a powerful spear that brought them falling to the ground at full speed.

As soon as they hit the ground on their backs, they both started chasing each other around the nearby forest while breaking multiple sound barriers.

Blur of red and blue energy sped toward the villages while they engaged in their combat, throwing punches and crashing into buildings at random.

The fight immediately drew the attention of nearby citizens who had Zeno and Lucifer speed past their cities and caused huge destruction with their booms.

They are moving so fast that they arrived at five different cities before moving back to the Carrion with each one landing a punch on the other's face.

This sent them crashing to the ground a few meters away from each other.

Coughing, Lucifer slowly stood up from the ground with his body covered in burns from Zeno's flames.

Lucifer immediately healed himself while carrying a weird grin on his face, "That fire… it's something else." He said.

"We don't have to do this, these flames will kill you, slowly but still very effective." Zeno uttered, "there's nothing wrong in giving in".

"What are you talking about… give in? I'm just getting started" Lucifer responded with a grin.
