Chaos and Order - A Multiverse Fanfic

Prinplup's master still had mockery lingering on her face, the same as she had last night.

She let go of the Pokemon, and commanded, "Prinplup! Use Metal Claw!!"

None could hear her words other than the Pokemon, though.

"Prin…" the Pokemon let out a shout, and then shot itself toward Kai, rotating like a drill. "… pulp!"

The light blue tips of its wings started to glow with a silver light so sharp that it made them look like true steel, full of Mana.

The corner of Kai's lips arched up, then.

If Kai's change of direction, while maintaining his speed, was a shocking thing, then what happened next was just plain dreadful.

Gyarados-Kai's menacing, slitted eyes narrowed like that of a cat.

Ability - Advance Intimidation!

Prinplup was still coming at Kai with its razor-sharp wings aimed at his neck, hoping to behead him.

Suddenly, the world replaced itself in its eyes, a bang rocking its brain.

A primal fear of draconic wrath overpowered its existence. The tips of its wings lost the metallic luster, just when the Pokemon was a few feet away from Kai.

This was the most absurd, indirect effect of Advance Intimidation — It could force the target to cancel the Skill involuntarily.

Especially when the opponent lacked the will to defy Kai's own will.

"No!" the butt-slapped Contestant screamed, taking out her Pokeball to call the Pokemon back.

Too late.

Prinplup's momentum was so great that in a fraction of a second, it brought the Pokemon into Kai's reach, who was already coming at him with even greater speed.

Afro's Tachi flashed, and Prinplup's wings got cut off, blood melting into the seawater like salt.

"NO!!!" the butt-slapped female's face became blue in convulsions, her hatred shooting through the skies.

Kai grinned.

He thrust Afro's Tachi into Prinplup's chest.

"Prin…!!!"

The Pokemon had just let out a mournful scream full of pain and reluctance, when Kai's hand blurred once again, even faster than before, and beheaded the magical creature.

4 strikes!

And Afro's Tachi began glowing with a bloody-red glow.

Four consecutive strikes and one kill had brought Afro's Tachi's Base Damage to a whopping 105 HP, a combined result of its lethal Skills — I will keep moving forward and Ruthless Ritual.

…

The 5th strike, with its 110 HP damage, was enough to shock all, Kai knew.

He would not waste that attack on morons.

With a flick of his hand, a box appeared, and Kai threw the dead Pokemon into his MRB.

Unlike the case upon Contestant's death, where the Pokemon would return to Pokeball by itself and then vanish, dead Pokemon wouldn't return, becoming battle spoils instead.

…

This?!

All Contestants paused momentarily as they saw Prinplup getting killed and thrown into Inventory.

They couldn't figure out why the Pokemon didn't attack and let this mutated Contestant kill it as if it wanted to die.

"I will kill you!" the Pokemon trainer screamed, several whip-like tubes of seawater manifesting around her.

The old man had told Kai about this female Contestant, even though he didn't know about her being a Pokemon Trainer as well.

She possessed water-based Skills, based on Wannai Kinuho Character from A Certain Magical Index Random World.

Alas! Her opponent was Kai.

She had Skills to manipulate water, but Kai had Telekinesis, an Advance Ability. And he was already within the 10 meters limit.

The sharp and threatening whip-like water tubes hurled themselves at Kai, tearing seawater.

Suddenly, they paused midway.

Kai felt a searing pain bubbling in his head. He didn't have full mastery over controlling liquid substances using Telekinesis, but it was still enough to restrict such a low-grade Skill for a moment.

If Kai had used Intimidation again, in such a short time, then others would have instantly recognized what had happened with Prinplup upon seeing the female Contestant's listlessness.

Kai knew he was a genius, but he never believed others were brainless idiots.

A terrified look appeared on the female Contestant's face. She was just about to cancel her Skill, taking out another Item, when Kai's speed increased even further.

One moment, he was several feet away from her.

In the next, the palm of his left hand was already resting on her forehead.

The moment Kai's palm pierced the bubble and landed on her forehead, he closed his eyes.

Within the butt-slapped female Contestant's consciousness, a tsunami of yellow fog came out of nowhere and flooded her thoughts, memories, and emotions.

No matter how much her Mana resisted the onslaught of this yellow fog, without being a practitioner of Occlumency, she had no chance to prevent what was about to happen to her.

When the yellow fog in her consciousness drowned everything, a white room materialized, hovering three inches above the mist.

Over the roof of this white room, Kai's projection appeared, with his hands behind his back, his eyes closed in calm and composure.

With a bang, those eyes snapped open, churning the yellow mist underneath the white room.

The moment Kai opened his eyes, rune after rune escaped from his body in an unending stream, and engulfed the entire space around him.

100…

1000…

10,000…

100,000…

200,000…

500,000…

By the time the number of runes reached the 500,000 mark, the colorless sky of the female's consciousness had already turned black.

These runes weren't normal, to begin with.

Mixed within them were variations, some meaningful, some useless.

The number of these runes represented Kai's one instance of calculations he had allotted himself during every Identity Period; only 1 hour of his meditation over the runes, trying to figure out the Ancient Magical Script.

If it had ended here, then this wouldn't have been too shocking.

"Haa!" Kai slammed his palms together and let out a powerful shout. It was as if a dam broke.

So many runes burst out of Kai that the endless blackness of the sky overhead became even darker, to an infinite degree.

And the number of runes reached…

1,000,000!

Kai's Mana projection laughed like a maniac in the butt-slapped female Contestant, and said, "Have a taste of my calculations…"

In the real world, not even a breath had passed for these things to happen.

To others, it seemed as if Kai had just used some mysterious method to approach the Pokemon Trainer and put his hand over her forehead.

In the very next second, the entire figure of the female Contestant shuddered.

Blood seeped out from her nose, ears, mouth, and eyes.

And then, with a BANG, her head exploded, her skull cracking apart and sending brain matter everywhere.

One breath — One kill!

Kai turned around and eyed the other Contestants who were already looking at him as if he was a maniac.

His face was covered in blood, and the seawater was licking at his face, trying to clean up the mess.

Behind this blood-mist was a hideous grin.

Afro's Tachi kept pulsating with a bloody glow, and Kai shot himself toward the boat once again, his movements unpredictable and murderous.

This was just the beginning of this massacre; this ageless ritual of sacrifice…

And Kai was more than happy to carry it out.
