Lumisha stepped back one more time as she was surprised.
"You think you can fool me with some false act? Never. Your false charm and act might be good enough for a regular being to be attracted, but it can never attract me in such a way like this," Marco spoke up one more time.
A storm of purple lightning came out of Marco's body as he released an incredible amount of magic power.
As her true intentions were caught by Marco, Lumisha smiled, a smile filled with desire and evilness. She laughed a bit loudly.
"If so, then why don't we feast?" Lumisha shouted.
Lumisha released deep blue magic power from her entire body. The storm of magic power from both sides created an extremely strong quake in the Secretive World.
Lumisha sent a huge mana slash toward Marco with her left hand. The blue mana slash rushed toward Marco at incredible speed and was about to land on his chest. At that moment, Marco instantly vanished and reappeared a bit farther away.
Lumisha sent multiple slashes right afterward toward Marco from both of her hands.
Marco easily managed to dodge them without much problem. As a being with purple lightning as his main attribute, his speed was exceptionally mind-blowing.
As Marco was continuously dodging her attacks, Lumisha seemed quite annoyed, judging from her expression.
Lumisha geared up her magic power as the flow increased. She drew a magic circle right in front of her on the ground. A deep blue magic sword came out of the circle.
She grabbed the sword and flew toward Marco at a speed completely impossible for even 6th-layer beings to perceive.
She appeared right in front of Marco's face and swung her sword toward his neck.
As she was incredibly fast, Marco was barely able to dodge the sword by instantly stepping back. Lumisha jump toward Marco and swung her sword toward Marco's neck one more time.
But this time, Marco didn't dodge it. As soon as she was about to swing, Marco threw a punch toward her sword and instantly shattered it into nothing.
As he broke the sword, he was about to punch Lumisha's face, but Lumisha instantly stepped back.
Marco smiled a bit and glared toward Lumisha with narrow eyes.
"Speed is indeed my strong attribute," Marco spoke up, smiling.
"However, I don't think I'm really weak in strength either. That sword was nothing more than a piece of paper to me," he added.
"Even though he's weakened, a true spirit has to be strong after all," Lumisha thought to herself.
"I don't see any other way than using that," she added in her thoughts.
Lumisha drew a giant magic circle covering almost the entire Secretive World. The sky vanished from sight due to the magic circle's presence as it isolated the world from the outside.
"The world that belongs to the ones who can't stop and will never stop. Those who can't keep up will fall under the law of nature," Lumisha spoke up, slowly and calmly.
"That spell… is it…" Marco thought to himself, incomplete.
A dark barrier covered the entire world. Marco's body seemed frozen as he stopped moving.
A smile of victory appeared on Lumisha's face.
"A false world where the flow of time is completely meaningless. No matter how fast or strong you are, Mister Marco, you can never defy the law of the false world. Everything here in the false world runs according to my imagination," Lumisha spoke up. She continued smiling.
Lumisha drew a magic circle and summoned another blue sword covered with poison magic.
She flew toward Marco. As soon as she got in front of him, she swung her sword toward Marco's chest.
At that moment, the frozen Marco instantly broke his frozen state and landed his punch on Lumisha's forehead, throwing her far away.
Right afterward, Marco released his lightning magic power and destroyed the false darkness world within moments.
The blown-away Lumisha returned in front of Marco. She healed her forehead wound. However, the pressure of Marco's magic still lingering inside her forehead kept the pain.
"Even though I healed myself, it still hurts. I hate you, true spirit," Lumisha said, an incredible force of anger coming from her eyes.
"No one has ever been able to put even a single sketch on my face, and you… you dare to hurt me," Lumisha whispered.
"I hate you. I hate you. I hate you," Lumisha continuously whispered calmly. She seemed desperate and out of control as she covered her entire face with both hands.
"I hate you!" she shouted, releasing a deadly amount of magic power from her entire body.
The pressure of her magic power was far greater than before. The Secretive World started to shake again—much more strongly and densely. It was clear the Secretive World had never felt such pressure.
Marco wasn't showing any expression as he smiled.
Lumisha flew toward Marco so fast that he completely failed to perceive her presence. She appeared in front of him and was about to land a punch on his face.
Marco raised both of his hands in front of his face and tried to block the punch, caught off guard by Lumisha's blitzing speed.
As her punch landed on Marco's hands, he was blown far away from there.
Without wasting time, Marco instantly reappeared in front of Lumisha. Even though he took a serious attack, he didn't appear hurt anywhere on his body.
"You are a true spirit. You are the true spirit that defines destruction. It's not your true nature—lightning is not your symbol of power. It's false. It's false," Lumisha continued whispering.
The purple lightning magic power disappeared from Marco's body. Marco smiled a bit and stared toward Lumisha.
A piece of red glowing flame appeared in Marco's chest. At that moment, an incredible amount of red flames completely covered his body and made him glow with magic power.
The flow of red flame magic was so great that it covered the entire realm itself under it's pressure. It was far greater than anything that Lumisha able to show. Due to Marco's massive magic power pressure, Lumisha begun to sweat as she was staring toward Marco with fear.
"I knew it. You are the true spirit of destruction. Those glowing red flames are the symbol of your destruction," Lumisha spoke up. But this time, she spoke normally instead of whispering, as if she had returned to her senses.
Marco lifted his hand and pointed his index finger toward Lumisha. A red flashing mana beam appeared in front of his hand.
"With this one, I shall conclude the battle," Marco said without much expression.
He released the beam. The beam flew toward Lumisha and hit her chest. She was expressionless as it completely blitzed through her and penetrated her chest.
Her eyes and face changed—the strength reflecting from her face disappeared. She fell to the ground as the spirit left her body.
