Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital

Wyatt was in a tough spot as he saw a fast and boundless crescent blade of wind heading his way, and a blinding flash of lightning coming down from above. Both were closing in on him quickly at an incredible speed, making it difficult for him to escape by retreating in the direction where the attacks were heading. 

These attacks were not just lethal, but also incredibly fast, leaving Wyatt with no choice but to face them head-on despite his previous judgment not to because he couldnʼt retreat. So, Wyatt decided to try something bold that he had been thinking of trying out ever since he was able to physically enter the one with world state. 

Wyatt decisively harnessed his soul energy manipulation skill to its extreme limit to vibrate his soul pathways with enough fineness to enhance his physical connection to the world through a ʼone with the worldʼ state to its limit. While simultaneously entering the one with the world state spiritually with the help of his calamity soul gem. 

By entering the ʼone with the worldʼ state both physically and spiritually concurrently, Wyatt experienced a moment of omnipotence. It was as if the time had come to a halt as his connection to the world strengthened such that it transcended their previous relationship that made him a part of it. This time, he had not only become a part of the world, but he had become the world itself. 

To put it in simple words, 

An employee of a multinational corporation (MNC) will be regarded as a part of the MNC and gets to take advantage of the perks it provides. Similarly, in the past, when Wyatt had physically or spiritually entered the one with the world state, he integrated himself into the world to the extent that the strength of his existence could. This allowed him to experience the worldʼs advantages, like absorbing its limitless energy from his surroundings to recover faster or increasing his affinity to its rules to comprehend them faster. 

However, a CEO of an MNC will be seen as the corporation itself and can access all its benefits and create more benefits according to their desires, by entering the one with the world state physically and spiritually simultaneously Wyatt had transformed into the world itself to the extent that the strength of his existence could. Enabling him to wield the worldʼs power within that domain.

As that moment of omnipotence passed, time started to move normally. However, Wyatt was no longer the same he had undergone a profound transformation. His body expressed boundless presence even though he was only 110ft tall and a few feet wide in size. While his eyes radiated with bottomless depth. 

As the lightning lance and crescent wind blade drew closer, the environment around Wyatt underwent a transformation, enveloping him within a spherical space where he stood at the center. This gave rise to the apparition of a world. When the lightning lance and crescent wind blade converged upon this apparition, they were unable to breach its formidable barrier, dispersing into the surroundings once the power driving their assault had been exhausted.

Observing the manifestation of the worldʼs apparition enclosing Wyatt effortlessly diverted his razor-sharp crescent wind blade capable of slicing through the fabric of space itself, along with the lightning lance that could penetrate the void with ease, Belphegorʼs brows knitted in a deep frown. His expression quickly turned grotesque as he sensed the profoundly alarming energy emanating from Wyatt. 

Before Belphegor could respond, Wyattʼs voice echoed in his ears, saying, ”Get over here.”

Before long, Belphegor experienced an immense invisible force akin to the gravitational pull exerted by celestial bodies, drawing him closer to Wyatt.

In reaction to this compelling attraction, Belphegor summoned all his might in an attempt to oppose it. If not for the fiery fur enveloping his form, one would observe his taut muscles and veins stretched to their limits as he strained to counteract the irresistible force that sought to bring him closer to Wyatt.

Abruptly, Belphegor sensed the tremendous imperceptible attraction shifting into an equally powerful force, propelling Wyatt toward him at an astonishing velocity. Just as Belphegor comprehended that his immense efforts had not shattered the grip on him, but had transformed into an impelling force propelling Wyatt nearer, emulating the interaction of gravitational forces among celestial bodies, Wyatt was before him. His fist clenched, surrounded by an ethereal semblance of a world, aimed unswervingly at Belphegorʼs chest.

Instantly, Belphegor harnessed his time rule mastery to immerse himself within a secondary time flow. However, Wyatt was in close proximity to the devil as he used time rule that Wyatt was influenced by his time rule master thereby enabling him to seamlessly enter into the secondary time flow alongside Belphegor. This allowed Wyatt to drive his clenched fist, imbued with a fraction of the worldʼs formidable might, directly into Belphegorʼs chest without any suspense. Belphegor gaped in astonishment as this unprecedented turn of events unfolded before his eyes.

The unknown chain coiled around Belphegorʼs body swiftly reconfigured itself, adopting a defensive stance against Wyattʼs punch. Upon encountering Wyattʼs fist, the enigmatic chain promptly commenced siphoning off its kinetic energy but Wyattʼs punch packed such immense force that the chain struggled to absorb its entirety all at once.

Hence, even though the chain displayed an astonishing capacity for absorbing force, it fell short of fully neutralizing the punchʼs impact. Consequently, upon collision, the unknown chain fractured into fragments, propelling both Belphegor and the hourglass relic fastened to his back backward before they plunged into the molten lava beneath. 

Although Wyatt contemplated a sequence of successive strikes after his initial punch landed, he exercised restraint and opted instead to focus on salvaging the shards of the unknown chain before they descended into the molten lava below. Bolstered by his recently acquired might, Wyatt held a steadfast belief in his capability to confront Belphegor head-on.

Gathering the fragments of the mysterious chain, Wyatt carefully deposited them within a storage card. He then employed his soul pupils to meticulously scan the lava in search of both the Hourglass relic and Belphegor. Soon, he pinpointed the profound depths where their respective soul pathways lay concealed beneath the molten surface. By tracking the movements of their mass of soul pathways, it became apparent that Belphegor was rapidly advancing toward the submerging Hourglass relic. It was not surprising that Belphegor was able to swim in the pool of lava created by the fusion of his rule domains. 

Once again, Wyatt placed greater importance on securing the Hourglass relic rather than launching an assault on Belphegor. After all, the Hourglass relic was a true relic that possessed time-related abilities. By obtaining it, he would not only acquire a true relic with the strength to govern by time rule, but he would also deprive Belphegor of one of his most potent support items, thereby incapacitating Belphegorʼs ability to utilize time-based rules.

After all, this hourglass relic helped Belphegor to wield his time rule mastery without the need to synchronize it with the time of this world. Deprived of it, Belphegor would find himself bereft of the capability to effortlessly create new time flows as he pleased. Consequently, resulting in a substantial reduction of his overall power.

Wyatt employed his profound perception of his soul pupils to target the soul pathways of the hourglass relic. With a remarkable application of imperceptible force, similar to gravitational attraction, he endeavored to coax the descending hourglass relic toward his position. As a result of the force, the hourglass relic ceased its descent and swiftly reversed its course, ascending rapidly to the magmaʼs surface.

Belphegor, realizing the situation, unleashed a powerful roar and charged ferociously toward the hourglass relic. Utilizing its mastery over the surrounding three rules, Belphegor harnessed the power of his three rule domains enveloping the area. The rules governing these domains converged to lend their support, propelling Belphegor forward as he raced towards the hourglass relic hurtling at an astonishing speed towards Wyatt.

No matter how hard the devil tried, his efforts ended up being in vain as the hourglass relic ended up in Wyattʼs possession. Seeing this unexpected twist, Belphegorʼs ugly expression went through a drastic change. The grimace on its face turned into a disturbingly wide grin that was just as repulsive. This left Wyatt confused, as he had wanted to enjoy seeing Belphegor suffer losing one of his precious true relics. 

Promptly sensing a vampiric force siphoning his life force, Wyatt swiftly comprehended the reason behind Belphegorʼs unsettling grin. Subsequently, Wyatt came to the realization that the Hourglass relic possessed a consciousness of its own, deeming anyone besides Belphegor as mere sustenance. 

Feeling the vampiric energy sapping his life essence intensified, Wyatt attempted to cast aside the Hourglass relic, yet his efforts were thwarted, for it clung to him tenaciously, akin to a relentless leech. No matter the strength of his endeavor, he found himself unable to rid himself of its grip.
