Y/N POV

"Critical... Surchargem... Overload."

Critical Overload was originally a means to help me escape any deadly situation by drastically enhancing my body by filling me with the 'anti-Od' that authorities utilize to inflict their abilities on this world, while also filling me with mana. Over time, I've learned to activate it on command, without the need for me to be in mortal danger to utilize the ability.

"I can't even feel my body anymore... is this what it means... to be at the peak? The true zenith?"

I looked down at my hand and my extensions. My entire body glowed with red, green, white, and black colours to it, and I saw a clear symbol of Valgren's dragon scales across my limbs, underneath the light. I pointed my palm at Reid, and a jet of black flame shot out faster than the speed of sound at the sword saint, akin to Valgren's own flames.

"Shit!" Reid rolled to the side as he looked, still flabbergasted at my transformation. Guess nobody has shown him an abomination like this before. "Ya think turnin' into some glowin' light will allow yaself to beat me? I've cut light down, I tell ya." He raised his sword and zoomed towards me before cutting my entire body in half, but I merely smiled.

"Hehe... gehahahahahaha!"

I could only laugh in this situation as I realized his powerlessness. After completely being fused into mana, there were no particles for Reid to destroy or harm, no flesh for him to cut. And my form reassembled itself faster than any regeneration technique, leaving him confused.

"What in the-"

"I'm pure mana now, Reid. And this world ain't have no stuff like Haki that allows you to cut intangible stuff and keep your opponents in pain. Even if you can cut me, you can never harm me while I'm in this form." Hehe. Time to show off a little.

Sheathing my swords and forming spheres of fire, wind, yang, and yin mana, I compressed them into one sphere before letting loose the laser beam of destruction. "Quartile: VIUL Radium."

Reid blocked it with difficulty before slashing it apart, but I was already on the move. "Quartile: VIUL Fulmen."

A third extension popped out of my back and enlarged itself before gathering mana onto its hand, forming a giant thunderbolt pulsing with all four kinds of mana. As Reid stared at it in contempt, I threw it down onto him, causing him to yell in pain and shock at the same time. Not giving him any time to react, I took out all five swords, and performed a sideways swing as if using a broom. "Gotoryu- Bulk Sweep."

Reid was sent flying into the wall of Electra before he could recover from the lightning shock. When he recovered and stepped out of the smoke and debris, my authorities have all recovered from his absolute severance. My Dominator's Domain was reactivated, placing me under less mental burden as it evolved into its final form.

"Dominator's Domain, Fourth Gear- Law Alteration."

The fourth alternation of Dominator's Domain allows me to reinstate the world's laws of physics, either allowing me to erase a law completely or adding a new law that affects anyone in this domain. The more laws you add, the time that the domain holds decreases exponentially.

"So, Reid Astrea, feeling like giving up now?" I taunted at the swordsman as my extensions rotated their swords to generate wind currents that lifted me up like a helicopter while I floated above the Sword Saint, sneering at him.

"You cocky brat... don't think ya can just play around like this. You don't even know how to cut. Even now, you can't hurt me with ya swords. A shame, isn't it? Maybe they're better off with me instead."
