Chapter 73: Breaking the Impossible Limit
Silence fell again.
But this time—
It wasn't empty.
It was heavy.
Filled with pressure that felt like it could crush everything.
Meera stood still.
Her body trembling slightly.
Not from fear—
But from the strain of everything she had pushed through.
Her limit…
She had already crossed it.
Yet she was still standing.
"…You're forcing something your body cannot handle," the figure said quietly.
Its voice carried no mockery this time.
Only observation.
"…This will destroy you."
Meera didn't respond.
Her eyes were fixed forward.
Sharp.
Unshaken.
"…Maybe," she said softly.
A faint glow began to rise around her again.
Different from before.
Not explosive.
Not chaotic.
But deep.
Like something hidden—
Now finally coming to the surface.
"…But I won't stop."
The air shifted.
A low vibration spread through the ground.
Arjun's eyes widened slightly.
"…What is she doing…?"
Meera slowly raised her hand.
Her energy gathered—
But not in bursts.
It flowed.
Smooth.
Endless.
"…This isn't about power anymore," she whispered.
"…It's about control."
The figure's expression changed slightly.
"…Control?"
Meera took one step forward.
The ground didn't crack.
It stabilized.
"…You pushed me to my limit," she continued.
"…So I went beyond it."
Her energy expanded outward.
Not violently—
But overwhelmingly.
Filling the space around them.
"…And beyond that…"
Her voice steadied completely.
"…I found something new."
The light around her shifted.
Becoming sharper.
Denser.
Stronger.
But perfectly controlled.
Arjun felt it instantly.
"…This isn't the same power…"
"…It's something else…"
The figure stepped back—
Just slightly.
"…Interesting…"
For the first time—
There was caution in its voice.
Meera moved.
Not fast—
But precise.
In a single step—
She appeared in front of it.
Her hand raised.
No wasted movement.
Just one strike.
BOOM!
The impact sent the figure flying backward.
Farther than before.
Harder than before.
It crashed into the ground—
