Chapter 244: Nonsensical Transformation
[: 3rd POV :]
As Daniel recovered from the monstrous attack of the 9th Winged Beast, a frown creased his brow.
It was a creature unlike any he had ever encountered, its very attacks were mysterious and unbelievable.
Despite his confidence in his own abilities, Daniel couldn't help but feel a twinge of uncertainty gnawing at the edges of his mind.
"So... this is the 9th Winged Beast,"
He muttered, his voice tinged with a mixture of amazement and excitement.
Though he knew that he possessed superior stats, the sheer magnitude of the beast's skills was enough to give him pause.
"What's wrong, mortal? Weren't you the one who was confident enough to challenge me?"
The beast's voice carried a mocking edge, its words echoing through the land with chilling clarity.
Yet, Daniel refused to be cowed by its taunts.
Without warning, a powerful force slammed into Daniel's face, sending him hurtling to the ground below.
Cracks spiderwebbed across the earth as he landed, the impact jarring his senses and leaving him momentarily stunned.
Despite the pain coursing through his body, Daniel's lips curved into a grim smile.
His eyes glinted with excitement as he pushed himself to his feet, his blood boiling with adrenaline-fueled anticipation.
"I guess this time, there's a real challenge,"
He remarked, his voice filled with a steely resolve.
Though the odds were stacked against him, Daniel was more than ready to face whatever trials lay ahead.
For him, the thrill of battle was a drug, and the prospect of overcoming such a formidable opponent only served to achieve his goal.
Eventually, Daniel made a bold decision.
He knew that the 9th Winged Beast's power lay in its control over time, but he refused to let that intimidate him.
This was no time for holding back – it was time to unleash the full extent of his abilities.
"Seraph of the End," he muttered, his voice echoing with raw power.
Instantly, a transcendent energy radiated from his being, causing the very fabric of reality to tremble in awe.
The air crackled with electricity as the dimension around them quaked in fear of his unleashed might.
As Daniel's transformation took hold, his appearance underwent a dramatic change.
His eyes blazed with an otherworldly star, their depths shimmering with an allure that spoke of both divine and infernal forces at play.
Above his head, three halos materialized in a breathtaking display of colours – black, dark purple, and dark crimson.
Each pulsating with an intensity that defied comprehension.
On his forehead were a pair of golden curved horns, it was imbued with an aura of ancient power.
From his back unfurled a pair of ethereal wings, one embodying the essence of darkness while the other radiated with the brilliance of light.
As his transformation continued, Daniel's skin took on a slightly darker hue, representing the dragonic features that emerged with each passing moment.
A long tail extended from his back, its sinuous form twisting and coiling with a predatory grace that hinted at untold strength.
Sharp fangs protruded from his mouth, gleaming with a menacing glint that spoke of the ferocity lurking within.
On the other hand, his hands morphed into claws of formidable size and razor-sharp edges.
Instead of starting at the 1st Stage, Daniel took the 10th Stage where all of his stats had increased terrifyingly by 51.2 million times.
At the same time, the consumption was 512 million Mana per second which wasn't an issue considering that his Mana gauge was trillions and his recovery rate was endless.
However, this wasn't the end of his transformation.
First, he invoked the state of Karma Calamity, a transformation that elevated his strength to unprecedented heights.
With a surge of energy coursing through his veins, all of his stats increased by a staggering 1000, imbuing him with a power that bordered on divine.
But Daniel wasn't finished yet.
As ancient tattoos spread across his body like tendrils of dark energy, his form radiated with an otherworldly aura.
The combination of Seraph of the End and Karma Calamity infused his being with a deadly potency, enhancing his abilities to a level beyond imagination.
With a flicker of readiness in his eyes, Daniel activated his Samsara Eyes, causing them to undergo a mesmerizing transformation.
The stars within his gaze now shimmered with a new intensity, their celestial light imbued with the power of ancient symbols – circles and triangles – that danced within their depths.
But even as his transformation reached its peak, Daniel knew that there was still more power to be unleashed.
With a resolute gesture, he invoked his Ultimate Skill, Unstoppable, enveloping himself in an aura of invincibility.
For the next minute, no damage could touch him, and he gained absolute resistance against all manner of debuffs, poisons, and curses.
His already formidable stats were multiplied by fifty, ensuring that he stood as an unyielding victory against his foe.
As if that wasn't enough, Daniel activated Freedom Fight, summoning a cloak of pure white gas that surrounded him like a shield.
The ethereal substance swirled around him, offering both protection and empowerment in equal measure.
But Daniel's arsenal didn't end there.
With a flourish, he utilised the Book of Solomon, summoning a thick grimoire of light that materialized before him.
The ancient tome pulsated with untold knowledge and power, serving as a conduit for his divine abilities.
Finally, with a sense of anticipation coursing through his veins, Daniel invoked the Eye of Karma.
As his eyes underwent yet another transformation, the symbol of Omega appeared within the starry depths, radiating a power that transcended mortal comprehension.
With this final augmentation, Daniel stood ready to face the 9th Winged Beast with all the might at his disposal.
As Daniel's transformation reached its climax, the 9th Winged Beast watched with a mixture of surprise and intrigue.
At first, there was a glint of curiosity in its gaze, as if it were fascinated by the spectacle unfolding before it.
However, as Daniel's power continued to grow, that curiosity gave way to something far more unsettling – fear.
"You, Mortal! Where did you attain such power!?" the beast demanded, its voice laced with intense emotion.
It was clear that the sight of Daniel's newfound strength had struck a chord of terror within its very essence.
The beast couldn't comprehend how a mere mortal could wield such unfathomable power, let alone exist with it.
"This shouldn't be! You shouldn't be existing!" it declared, its words tinged with desperation.
But despite the beast's growing panic, Daniel remained unfazed.
Instead, a smirk danced upon his lips as he regarded his adversary with a sense of amusement.
"I remember someone saying the same thing," he retorted, his voice laced with a hint of mockery.
It was clear that Daniel relished the opportunity to defy the beast's expectations, to prove once and for all that he was more than just a mere mortal.
But the beast was not about to back down.
As it realized the true extent of Daniel's power – powers that defied the very laws of nature.
"No matter what, I have to kill you!" it exclaimed, its voice echoing with a fierce resolve.
It was clear that the beast saw Daniel as a threat, an anomaly that threatened to upset the delicate balance of power that had been imposed upon them.
"Well, time to find out whether you could kill me or not,"
Daniel replied, his voice dripping with confidence.

As the beast's declaration to kill Daniel hung in the air, time seemed to stand still for a fleeting moment.
In that frozen instant, the blows of impact hurtled toward Daniel with menacing speed, each one aimed at his vulnerable form.
With a resounding clash, the attacks struck Daniel head-on, their force enough to send shockwaves rippling through the air.
Yet, to the astonishment of the beast, the blows seemed to dissipate upon impact, their power absorbed by the intricate tattoos around Daniel's body.
In the blink of an eye, the tables had turned.
As time resumed its normal flow, the very same attacks that had been intended to harm Daniel now found their mark on the beast.
With a deafening boom, the creature was sent hurtling through the air, its massive form tumbling end over end until it came to a crashing halt against the ancient ruins.
For a moment, the beast lay sprawled on the ground, its gaze fixed upon Daniel with a mixture of shock and disbelief.
"What... had you done, Mortal...?" it gasped, unable to comprehend how its attacks had been repelled with such ease.
"I'm not sure,"
Daniel replied with feigned innocence, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips.
In truth, he knew exactly what had transpired, but there was no need to reveal his hand just yet.
"Now, it's my turn," he declared, his voice ringing out with excitement as he prepared to unleash his own onslaught upon the bewildered beast.
With his transformations now, he was more than ready to defeat the beast.
