Chapter 499: Battle
\'He already killed Bryson?\' A grim look appeared on Charles\'s face.
\'It\'s no use in suppressing my power anymore.\' He muttered to himself.
Then, he looked up at the sky and released his full wisdom power.
The next second, the whole surroundings ignited suddenly, and fires, lavas balls, and sparks appeared all over the place while burning everything in its path!
At that moment, the whole Museum\'s entrance was enveloped in reddish flame and burned fiercely like wildfire.
Nearby knights, horses, a few priests, and even some bishops got affected by the fire and screamed in pain.
Meanwhile, Charles casually flew up towards the sky and soon stopped as he reached 300-meter high.
Then, he calmly looked at Pope Gabriel and activated [Accelerated Thoughts] and [Eyes of the Runes] skills.
At that moment, a row of information appeared in front of his eyes.

...
Upon seeing the information, Charles\'s face changed slightly.
\'His wisdom power is on par with the Rank of Legends (Rank-6)! He is not a Pseudo-Legend but a True Legend! I\'m no match for him.\'
Without waiting for the Pope to say something, he took the initiative, raised his hand, and showed his two fingers.
"You have two options now, Pope Gabriel. First, you can use your divine power and battle me to death here and now. Although you might become a victor at the end of the battle, your Holy See will be no more for sure." While saying, he cast [Fallen Angel\'s Wings] on himself, flapped it twice, and flew a few meters backward.
In the meantime, the white-haired Pope gazed at him coldly and asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Oh? What is the second option would be?"
While maintaining the calm look on his face, Charles grinned evilly and replied.
"Let me walk away from here and promise me that you will not chase after me."
A strange silence appeared in the dark sky, followed by an eerie sound of the wind. Even though the wind was caused by the surrounding atmosphere, Charles felt like they were suddenly attacking him in anger.
At that moment, a teeth-gritting sound also came out of Pope\'s mouth as he tossed Bryson\'s head away and gripped the golden crozier tighter.
Soon, a deep sigh echoed in the sky.
"Victor was right about you. You are indeed a shameless demon hiding in a human\'s skin. Tch, then I will choose the third option."
He paused for a moment, looked up at the dark sky, and added.
"The World!"
Just as he spoke, an invisible ripple came out of his body and spread in all directions.
Simultaneously, a white light appeared below his feet, moved in every direction, and covered the whole Holy See like a dome!
Upon seeing this, a frown appeared on Charles\'s face.
He instantly pointed his finger at the dark sky and cast Rank-5 [Rain Fire] spell.
The next instant, a dense amount of fire-elemental energy came out of his soul and spread towards the sky like wildfire.
In a blink, the whole sky turned entirely red as the clouds started to transform into pure chaos fire and started raining fireballs!
Most of them were football-sized ones, some were 1-meter radius in size, and some were even as large as a single-stored house!
On the other hand, Pope\'s face remained calm as water.
Still, he was surprised inside.
Although Pope did expect that this young man would give him some trouble, he truly underestimated Charles!
\'He is indeed stronger than anyone I have faced before.\' He thought.
But he didn\'t get anxious, though.
In truth, he had the authority to control this Faith Plane and had absolute confidence in killing Charles!
Meanwhile, the fireballs fell from the sky and crashed on the dome endlessly.
As more fireballs crashed onto the dome, Charles noticed an odd phenomenon.
Although the fireballs damaged the dome from time to time, an invisible power came from the surrounding atmosphere and recovered the damaged areas continuously!
\'Something is wrong!\' He closely perceived the surrounding air and soon felt a small amount of divine power flowing through the whole surroundings.
\'Wait! It\'s the same with Cardinal Smith. He used divine power when he tried to assassinate me but couldn\'t use such power in my pocket dimension.\'
At that moment, Pope of the Light Church seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and asked a strange question.
"Do you know why we called this world as Faith Plane?"
Without waiting for Charles\'s reply, he moved closer towards Charles and spoke.
"Unlike other worlds, this one is a unique plane. As long as you control a particular territory or domain and make the citizens have complete faith in you, you can become an absolute being in that territory. For example, if the Aetas Kingdom citizens became your true believers and started worshiping you as their God, you\'ll be able to get the approval of the World\'s Will one day and become a true ruler. That\'s why your spell won\'t have much effect against this dome."
Meanwhile, Charles furrowed his brows and soon nodded his head in understanding.
"That\'s why you want to unify the plane and become the true ruler of this world? But how could Cardinal Smith borrow this divine power from you and use it to battle against me? Are you also working under some Demon-"
Before he could even ask those questions, Pope suddenly appeared before him and slammed the golden crozier against his body at an unimaginable speed!
Even with [Accelerate Thoughts] skill, Charles only managed to see blurry images before the golden crozier gave him a devastating blow.
Although the nature leaf activated on its own and created a forcefield, it couldn\'t even manage to stop the crozier for 0.1 seconds before breaking into pieces.
\'I didn\'t even get any warning visions!\' His eyes turned blurry as he thought at that moment.
He felt that his rib bones were broken from inside for a moment.
In a blink, his body flew in the eastern direction while ripping through the air, tore through the nightmare forest trees, and soon landed on a rocky surface.
He felt like his body was broken into pieces as he coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked at his surroundings in shock.
Only then did he notice that he had already flown more than a few km away from the Holy See and landed at the base of a lone mountain!
