Chapter 65 - History's Greatest King

Multhi: He stood up after landing inside the void, staring up at the towering Titan before him.

Xalmorgoth: "You INSULT me by standing here before me, such a small, meaningless man. An elemental has no place against a Titan!" Power surged throughout its body, growing larger, now at 200 feet.

Multhi: "I was once just a man, and nothing more, a king without a kingdom. Nothing more than a prince with nothing to claim." He spun his staff, the entire void beginning to fill with a strong blizzard. "But then I grew up."

Xalmorgoth: "Meaningless speeches!" The beast built up hellfire in its mouth. Four large demonic wings burst out from its back, and three spiked tails formed. It blasted hellfire down on Multhi.

Multhi: A gust of wind blasted him underneath the beast. He gripped his staff as ice formed around it, glowing deep blue as it turned into a massive hammer. He was barely able to hold it, but found the strength to bash the beast from underneath, sending it flying back across the whiteness.

Xalmorgoth: It shook it off. Its tail tips opened up, black holes of hellish energy forming as it fired each one down toward Multhi.

Multhi: His eyes widened. He tried to fire ice at them, but it just got absorbed. "Shit..." He closed his eyes. "Willpower is the strongest weapon...Father learned that from Star." He shot golden ice, shattering the black holes into nothing.

Xalmorgoth: He looked around at the blizzard, flapping his wings, burning the clouds into nothing. "You need that to fight, don't you..."

Multhi: "Shit." He gripped his staff tighter.

Xalmorgoth: He flapped his wings toward Multhi, burning his body before he could react, launching him back against the void. "This is PATHETIC, you are not worth my time." He stabbed his fingers into the void wall, beginning to pry it open.

Multhi: He knelt. "Father...Mother...I call upon you, grant me strength, grant me freedom..." A rumbling energy began to build, catching the attention of the Hell Titan.

Xalmorgoth: "What are you trying now, BOY?!" He looked over at him, his eyes widening as he saw the silhouette of a...giant tortoise for a second. "You...are connected to him." He ripped his hands from the rift, focusing his attention on Multhi. "Of course you are."

Multhi: He stood up slowly, his eyes burned with a ferocious yet determined blue. "I do not know what you speak of. The only thing that runs through my blood is my parents' will. It is their strength that strengthens me." He summoned a massive sword of ice, slashing one of its arms off. "I need not the fury of the storm to defeat you."

Xalmorgoth: "Ngh!" Its arms regenerated just as fast as they were cut off. The environment of Hell began to form with every step of the beast, it growing stronger with every minute. "This will not go as you expect, child!"

Multhi: "It is I who should've said that to you, beast." He put his staff on his back, his hands burning with frostbite as he fired deep blue ice beams at the beast's legs, freezing them in place and stopping the growth of Hell.

Xalmorgoth: He warmed his legs, breaking free. Hell began to spread throughout different places inside the void. "YOU don't even know what you truly are, do you? All of that power and you barely know how to use it!" He blasted Multhi straight with hellfire, causing an explosion the second it hit his body. "Heheh~ WHAT?" His smile shattered.

Multhi: His entire body turned into that same deep blue ice. He turned normal as the flames died down, but his body was burning more and more from the frostbite. Using the power was taking a negative toll on his body. "Damn it..."

Xalmorgoth: "You are losing strength fast, BOY!" He laughed as a spike of hellstone stabbed through Multhi's chest, his blue blood dripping off the end.

Multhi: "Ngh! Agh!" He coughed up blood, but his strength would not let him fall. He used his wind to slice through it, plugging his wound with water and then freezing it.

Xalmorgoth: He grinned, his jaws spreading wide. "You cling to life so desperately...GOOD." He lunged forward, all six arms striking down at once.

Multhi: He forced his body to move, barely dodging as the attacks shattered the void beneath him. "I don't need to last...I just need one opening..."

Xalmorgoth: "PATHETIC!" One of its tails whipped around, smashing into Multhi's side and sending him flying.

Multhi: "AGH!" He skidded across the void, his body cracking with frost as he forced himself back up.

Xalmorgoth: It roared, its wings beating violently, tearing the void apart as it shot forward like a comet. Each claw strike sent massive shockwaves, tearing fissures through the frozen ground and sending chunks of ice and stone flying.

Multhi: He rolled under the swipe, summoning a wall of jagged ice spikes that erupted from the floor, impaling the void around the Titan and slowing its momentum. The force of the impact sent shards spinning like deadly stars, cutting through the air.

Xalmorgoth: It slammed its tails down, crushing the ice spikes into a cloud of shards, then whipped its spiked tails in a sweeping arc, tearing rifts through the void itself, sending Multhi skidding across the ground.

Multhi: He slammed his staff into the frozen floor, sending a surge of deep blue energy spiraling upward, lifting him into the air. He launched a barrage of ice hammers from the ground, each hammer the size of a small building, smashing into the Titan's arms and legs, staggering the massive creature backward.

Xalmorgoth: It roared louder, sending a shockwave of hellfire outwards. The hellish environments forming around it amplified its strength, and it had already grown to 350ft.

Multhi: He panted heavily, trying to keep himself on his feet. "This has to end...My future people need me to be there, to protect them, to carry them."

Xalmorgoth: "Leaving yourself open!" Its tail slammed down on where Multhi stood. Silence fell over the void until there was an ice-crackling noise. A glowing blue light formed under the tail, spreading fast. "HOW DO YOU KEEP STANDING!"

Multhi: He held his hand up, gripping the giant's tail. "My Willpower is greater than yours...My strength is greater than yours, and MY LOVE FOR MY PEOPLE IS STRONGER THAN YOU'LL EVER BE!" Somehow, he found the strength to throw the beast across the void, the shockwave splintering the frozen ground beneath him.

He launched himself into the chest of the beast, enduring its burning heart, slamming his staff straight into its core. Its entire body began to freeze rapidly, ice spreading through muscle, bone, and blood, locking every movement.

Xalmorgoth: "NO, YOU BASTARD CHILD! RRAAAGHHHH!!! QUAVKI YOU BASTARD, I'LL SEE YOU IN HELL!!!" Its body thrashed, trying to claw its chest open to grab Multhi, but the ice spread faster than it could move. Within moments, it froze completely, and all of the hellish environments that had grown around the void disintegrated into nothing.
