So, you're choosing to strike out against me, hmm? Despite offering you a chance to have everything at your fingertips? Or are you goign to let your doubts from your failures hold you back?

@souleaterfan320

Doubt has never held me back. I just don't like blind faith, that's all.

*Glances at the sigil, studying it*

That and I find magic of all kinds interesting. Yours is, admittedly, complex. But like I said, it's nothing I can't figure out eventually. Especially since it uses a sigil as a medium. Consider my probing a cursory attempt in that regard.

*Slams the power from Ona's attack into your side*

This is too easy. Please make me actually try?

<Snipped quote by Zyx>

While this is true, they've barely scratched the surface. Though I suppose, that's far enough. I think it's time I up the ante, here.

* assumes a stance, and after drawing in a breath, I open my eyes, now glowing a malevolent purple. A purple hue surrounds us all*

No, no one but us amaranthine can leave here. Time to put the pressure on.

*jets to the Robot, crushing its innards iwth my bare hands, before throwing the chassis at Ona full force as a distraction while I charge up an attack*

@souleaterfan320

*Scowls and jets upward, clasping my hands together over my head and then spreading them, creating a surging strand of energy between them that resonates with such intensity that its presence can be felt*
You have no idea how annoying it is that you talk so much and do so little. Here, you oaf, redirect this one too! It’s all you’re good for!
*The frequency the power resonates with surges and causes instability in reality itself around all of us*

Oh, is the wittle baby getting angry? How about you actually do something useful and give up. Make it easy for me, since that's all you've done so far.

@Zyx

Complex, but efficient. It still strikes my as odd that you chose to rally against me. Are you bored? Are you actually trying to help the 'good guys'?

@souleaterfan320

I'd hardly call it a rally, especially since all I did was fiddle with your magic a bit. Although I suppose you could say I am, in fact, bored. I can sense your power you know. You could have killed them by now, but choose not to. As such, I am left with very little to do but meddle.

@Zyx

So because I chose to not outright flatten my enemies, you think I'm being boring? What point is there to a complete obliteration just to warrant a win? I want to win, of course. And I will. But I don't want it to be too easy. It wouldn't be worth it.

@souleaterfan320

I find it odd that you can think so about a war. Perhaps it's the old soldier in me talking, but the goal here is to win. Personal enjoyment is largely irrelevant to that.

Angry that a cocky, unlikable, crusty pile of filth like you can only get people to tolerate you through brainwashing and then pretend you’re some god?
*Lowers my arms while maintaining the arcing energy between my palms, which increase in intensity so massively that any entity within its range begins to feel violent surges of power burst through them spontaneously*
Guilty as charged. Do something about it.
*Curves my hands toward you, focusing the effects on your position and increasing the potency exponentially*

@Heroic

Why does everyone think I'm brainwashing? It's not a fucking cult. We're a band of brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers. We protect our own and we strive for a better existence for all. Is it that damn hard to understand? ...fucking hell..

*takes in all the energy you give off, and fire it at the microscopic energy ball in front of you, causing an explosion that shreds through several dimensions instantaneously, including the one we're in, killing everything and anything it touches*

@Zyx

There comes a point that in war, an overwhelming force will obliterate an enemy. But as history has shown, rarely does that happen. So even though I have the ability to do so... its not what I want. I could crush all under my boot... but that wouldn't persuade hearts. It would eradicate them.

@souleaterfan320

*Shifts in front of Shinji and the rest swiftly enough to divert the explosion from them with the opposing output from my ongoing attack, but does nothing to prevent the decimation of the realities*
Name one person who likes you that isn’t Amaranthine. Just sayin’.

@Heroic

Those people don't exist. Those that agree with the amaranthine become those of the amaranthine of their own free will. We have only had 3 cases of all that have joined against their will. They have two options: join, and be liberated, or defect to help the Tier Five. The second option makes them an enemy.

@souleaterfan320

Then who are all your followers killing? Entire civilizations are dying at your hands.

@Heroic

People who chose the latter.

*my aura shifts*

The ammount of people I've hurt or killed is nothing compared to the countless lives the Tier Five have doomed. I cannot let them win. Step aside.

@souleaterfan320

I hate to break it to you, but that sounds like a classic case of trying to make wrongs right with more wrongs. So… With the utmost lack of respect, I’ll have to un-politely decline.

@Heroic

So you'll help keep the status quote? Let even more people die? Do you what to know the rough estimate of people I've killed compared to the ammount that the Tier Five have let perish? It's quite astounding.

@souleaterfan320

To be entirely fair, some hearts just can't be won.

*Turns my attention to the other players in the battle*

Their fire, for example, will never die. Not by words nor promises of a better future. So again I say it would be best for you to end them all. Lest they manage to find the upper hand at the very last moment.

@Zyx

...very well. You make a valid point. Let's end it all. Right here, right now.

*closes my eyes, and the rest of the spokes on my crown ignite, and my aura grows unbelievably heavy, as well as my energy reserves amplifying by an obscene ammount*

@souleaterfan320

Deceptive. But news flash, I don’t give a modicum of acknowledgement to the idea of picking between two evils. If I catch anyone else slaughtering innocent people as well, they’ll get what’s coming to them, but you are the scum in front of me now, so you’ll be dealt with accordingly.

@Heroic

Wasting your effort on the wrong person. What a sad excuse for a hero. I can't allow people like you to exist. You're a danger to everyone around you, cherrypicking your ideals....

*with every step I take toward you, existence seems to weep and groan under my weight*
