Chapter 72: Breaking the Impossible Limit
The ground trembled—
But not like before.
This time…
It was responding to her.
Meera stood still.
Her breathing slow.
Her eyes calm—
But burning with something deeper.
Not anger.
Not fear.
Something stronger.
Determination.
"…You're changing again," the figure said quietly.
For the first time—
There was caution in its voice.
Meera didn't answer.
She took one step forward.
The air around her distorted.
Energy flowed—
Not violently.
But overwhelmingly.
"…This pressure…"
Even the figure stepped back slightly.
"…What are you doing?"
Meera closed her eyes.
Her hands slowly tightened.
"…I was wrong," she said softly.
Silence.
"…I kept thinking I had a limit."
Her energy began to rise again.
Stronger than before.
But perfectly stable.
"…But limits…"
Her voice became firmer.
"…are meant to be broken."
Her eyes opened.
And everything changed.
A burst of energy exploded from her body.
Not chaotic—
Controlled.
Perfect.
The ground cracked beneath her feet.
The sky itself seemed to react.
The figure's expression shifted.
"…Impossible…"
Meera moved.
Not fast—
At least, it didn't look fast.
But in the next second—
She was already in front of it.
Her attack landed.
Direct.
BOOM!
The figure was thrown backward—
Farther than ever before.
Crashing into the ground.
Dust rising into the air.
Arjun's eyes widened.
"…That power…"
"…She really did it…"
Meera didn't stop.
She moved again.
Each step shaking the battlefield.
Each movement precise.
Controlled.
Dangerous.
The figure stood up slowly.
For the first time—
No smile.
"…So this is your true strength…"
Meera's voice was calm.
"…No."
A pause.
"…This is just the beginning."
She attacked again.
Faster.
Stronger.
The figure tried to block—
But failed.
Another hit landed.
Then another.
And another.
The balance had completely shifted.
Now—
She was dominating.
"…You've lost your advantage," Meera said.
"…I'm not afraid anymore."
The figure's energy flared suddenly.
Darkness rising violently.
"…Then I'll force you to be."
It released a massive wave of power.
Stronger than anything before.
The ground shattered.
The air screamed.
Even Arjun was forced back.
"…Meera!"
But she didn't move.
She stood there—
Facing it head-on.
Her energy rose to meet it.
Light against darkness.
But this time—
The light didn't struggle.
It pushed forward.
Overpowering it.
Slowly—
Then completely.
The darkness began to break.
Crack.
Shatter.
Disappear.
The figure's eyes widened.
"…No…"
Meera stepped forward.
Her presence overwhelming now.
"…This ends here."
She raised her hand.
Energy gathered—
Brighter than ever before.
More powerful than anything she had used.
The final attack.
The final moment.
The figure tried to move—
But couldn't.
For the first time—
It was completely overpowered.
"…This is… impossible…"
Meera's voice was steady.
"…No."
A pause.
"…This is my choice."
She released it.
A massive burst of light exploded forward.
Swallowing everything in its path.
The battlefield disappeared in light.
Silence followed.
Deep.
Heavy.
Then—
Slowly—
The light faded.
The ground was destroyed.
The air still.
And at the center—
Meera stood alone.
Breathing slowly.
Her power finally calm.
The figure…
Gone.
Arjun walked forward slowly.
"…You did it…"
Meera didn't answer immediately.
She looked at her hands.
No shaking.
No fear.
Just control.
"…No," she said quietly.
"…This is only the beginning."
