Chapter 478: Horizon Split
Until now, the pressure he had been releasing—terrifying and overwhelming as it was—had only been a half-measure. A shell. A controlled fragment of the true Concept that churned inside him. He had held back for a reason. Two, in fact.
The first was simple—power. He needed time to channel every last drop of mana, to drain his body completely so that when he finally unleashed the true Concept, it would be at its maximum potential, sharp enough to sever not just matter or energy—but intention, fate, and certainty. He needed the strike to carry everything. The full weight of his will. The culmination of his path.
But the second reason… the second reason was far more dangerous.
Because if he had revealed the full Concept of Severing Sword too early, Drevon—with his experience and monstrous instinct—might’ve sensed the danger. Might have understood the sheer lethality behind the true form of the Concept.
And if that had happened, Max knew what would follow. Drevon wouldn’t wait. He wouldn’t hesitate. He might have interrupted the build-up. Might have attacked, crushed, or killed Max outright before he could even finish summoning the blow.
So Max had gambled.
What do you think?
