I remained lying in the muck, the prismatic light of the Unbridled state bleeding into the dark water around me. I didn't need to move a muscle to seize control of the battlefield.
I looked at the Beneath One and Siegfried. With a single thought, I accessed the Law Manipulation interface of the world. I didn't attack them with fire or steel; I simply targeted the "Concept of Breath."
"Law Manipulation: Atmospheric Exclusion."
In a perfect circle around the Slayer and the Demon, the oxygen vanished. It didn't just dissipate; it ceased to exist. Siegfried's victorious sneer collapsed into a mask of purple-faced agony as he clawed at his throat, his lungs heaving for air that wasn't there. The One Beneath thrashed, his shadow-form flickering violently as the void I created began to collapse his very essence.
Then, I turned my gaze inward.
"Time Manipulation: Chrono-Regeneration."
