Chapter Text
An impact occurred causing the air to vibrate around. The clash occurred because two people were fighting in the air below them surrounded by rocky hills.
One of the fighters threw a punch right at his opponent's face, the impact was so great that it threw his opponent several kilometers away.
The person who received the blow adjusted himself as he approached the ground, he managed to land standing still, but the impact of the blow from his opponent was so strong that his body was dragged backwards causing destruction to the ground he was on. After a while he was finally able to stop.
Issei rubbed his cheek that was hit by Veldanava, Veldanava's punch was so incredible that it could penetrate his defenses so easily.
He looked up, far ahead of him Veldanava was standing in the air, not moving an inch after he hit Issei.
Issei steeled his body, he stared intently at Veldanava and focused all his attention on the older Dragon. Then he jumped and charged towards his brother at a speed that the naked eye couldn't see, the ground exploded due to the result of Issei's jump.
Even so, Veldanava could still see Issei clearly. Issei already knew that, therefore he changed the direction of his jump and disappeared from Veldanava's sight.
Veldanava's eyes narrowed, he was predicting where Issei would attack from, then he felt something strong from behind him, he quickly turned around and caught Issei's punch with his right hand.
The result of the collision of the two of them made the ground beneath them erode by several meters. The air trembled and a strong gust of wind blew the rocks away.
Even though the resulting effect was extraordinary, Veldanava didn't move at all. He was still in place while resisting Issei's attack. Which frustrated Issei. He had done everything he could to deal a single blow to Veldanava, but so far to no avail.
Veldanava didn't budge at all. He still gripped Issei's punch tightly.
“Nice plan, doing a feint move and taking advantage of your speed to create an opening,” Veldanava said to Issei, “I commend that, but…”
In the next move, Veldanava disappeared in an instant and appeared behind Issei.
"That's not enough."
Issei turned around quickly when he sensed danger from behind him, but it was in vain. Veldanava moved faster than Issei and instantly rewarded Issei with a punch to the stomach, which left him breathless.
“Gah!”
The result of the blow sent Issei flying straight to the ground, a tremendous impact occurred when Issei hit the ground, creating a huge cloud of dust that obscured the view. But Issei's body didn't stop there, his body was still dragged in and stopped a few meters from the ground.
Silence ensued.
Veldanava looked down where a cloud of dust covered the land, he stared at the location where he believed Issei was. He wondered what his brother would do next.
The explosion of power dispersed the accumulated dust, revealing Issei who was completely unharmed at the location where he fell. Only his clothes were dirty from the impact.
Issei then jumped and landed on the hill, not taking his eyes off Veldanava at all. He knew that if he let his guard down a little, then that very instant his defeat was decided.
After a moment of silence, but no one moved to make an attack. They both just stared at each other.
Veldanava then smiled and Issei smirked, both of them immediately moved in unison, continuing their fight.

Several days had passed since their battle began, their battle did not cover a single place, but covered the entire planet. That planet wasn't even worthy of being called a planet anymore, it had been devastated by the impact of the two True Dragons' battle.
There is hardly any land left on the rocky planet, everything has crumbled to dust, causing the planet to appear smaller. Thunderstorms struck everywhere, sea waves raged, earthquakes occurred incessantly. It could be said that the planet was in its dying period.
And what's worse, Issei and Veldanava didn't even fight at full strength, from the start they only used physical strength. If they had used their full power, the planet would have ended long ago.
Issei threw a punch but was immediately blocked by Veldanava's one hand, he knew that his attempt didn't work but he kept trying, he disappeared and appeared behind Veldanava in an instant, Issei gave a direct kick to the head but was restrained.
In less than a second, Issei had thrown over fifty attacks all of which Veldanava was able to dodge. The two of them fought at the speed of light that was impossible for the naked eye to see.
Soon they kept their distance with Issei who continued to stare at his opponent, not breaking his concentration.
“What a monster…” Issei thought with a sour expression, he had used Thought Acceleration and quickened his mind a million times to plan his attack, but it was all useless as Veldanava easily read it.
Issei sighed and smirked slightly. The opponent was a true monster that was impossible to beat, but Issei wouldn't give up. They fought not to determine win and lose, but to increase Issei's fighting experience which Veldanava was happy to help.
Just as Issei was preparing to attack, Veldanava suddenly said something.
“I think it's about time we stopped,” Veldanava said, taking Issei off guard a little.
"Hah? Why?" Issei asked a little disappointed.
"This planet won't last much longer, isn't that our time limit?" Veldanava said.
Issei looked around him and realized that their fight caused the world a great destruction.
"I think you're right," said Issei, he relaxed his body and calmed his strength.
"Let's move," said the older Dragon.
After that they used teleportation and moved to Veldanava's house. Issei immediately plopped down on the terrace of the house and took a deep breath.
"Good work. You've made a lot of progress,” Veldanava praised.
"You're kidding, right? I couldn't even throw a single punch at you,” Issei replied.
“Indeed, but your speed is amazing and you are very good at dodging.”
"Ha ha, I guess I'm used to it."
It reminded Issei of his past, when he was caught peeking at the girls from the Kendo club changing clothes, he and his friends were immediately chased by more than twenty angry girls holding Shinai.
Issei and his friends were immediately beaten mercilessly, but that didn't reduce Issei's level of lewdness. After dozens of times being caught and beaten by the girls, Issei slowly began to be able to dodge their Shinai attacks.
Issei accidentally smiled remembering his past memories.
"Okay, now I'll go first."
Veldanava's words brought Issei out of his nostalgia. He got up and looked at his brother.
"Hmm? Go where?" Issei asked confused.
"There are some things I need to take care of."
"I see. Do you need help?”
“No, I can take care of it myself. If I need help, I will definitely let you know.”
"Okay then," replied Issei. He then lazily fell asleep again.
If his brother said he didn't need help, then Issei wouldn't help him. He knew best that Veldanava was capable of taking care of whatever he was about to do.
"I'm leaving now."
Right after he said that, Veldanava disappeared. It seemed to have gone wherever it was headed.
Issei closed his eyes and tried to feel his brother's presence. Normally, Issei could easily find Veldanava's whereabouts, but this time he couldn't find him anywhere. That means there's only one thing that can cause it.
Veldanava had gone to a place that Issei had never been to or could not enter.
Seeing his efforts in vain, Issei opened his eyes again and saw the scene above him. No matter which way he looked, there was only a colorful view of the universe around him, which he never got tired of looking at.
After a while, he stood up and stretched his body.
“Now what will I do…” Issei pondered.
It's not that Issei doesn't have any activities, but he has so many things he wants to do that he's at a loss as to what to do first.
He then looked at his hands, he thought about continuing to make skills and master them. Recently he had learned how to make Skills from Veldanava that would help him in battle or other activities. But after the battle he had with Veldanava made him lazy to do heavy things for now. So he gave up on doing that for now.
"I guess I'll just take a shower," Issei said with a sigh, but he had a happy expression on his face. Because taking a shower after doing daily activities reminds him of his home.

Years have passed since Issei got his new life, he has also been in a long sleep several times so he doesn't know exactly how many years have passed, it could be days, years, or even millions of years have passed. Isse could have used his perception to find out but he didn't because he didn't have the will to do so, so he just let time flow.
Issei currently stands before a planet nearly half the size of Earth. It's a barren planet devoid of any beauty, making it a perfect training ground.
Issei refocused himself on the planet in front of him, the purpose of his training this time was to try out the skills he had designed all these years, those skills had been perfected recently and Issei wanted to do a trial to see the results.
Issei reached out his hand and pointed it at the planet, he then strengthened his focus. Since this was his first attempt he had to be careful not to make any mistakes.
“[Black Hole],” Issei muttered.
Right after that, a dense black hole-shaped energy pool formed within the planet's core. The black hole then sucks whatever is around it with a very strong suction force, before long the surface of the planet crumbles like paper and is sucked into the black hole.
That intense pulling force also reached where Issei was standing, but Issei wasn't affected by the tug at all.
Several asteroids scattered near the planet were sucked in and disappeared into the black hole, even a very large satellite was also attracted and disappeared like the previous asteroids.
Issei then clenched his fists and the result was that the black hole shrank and disappeared as if it never existed. But then from where the black hole disappeared, a tremendous shockwave occurred and blew everything nearby. Even a small planet that was very far from Issei's current location was destroyed and scattered due to the very strong vibration effect.
Issei looked at his handiwork with great satisfaction, he nodded and smiled at the success of the skill he had made all these years.
This [Black Hole] skill created by Issei is one of the Ultimate Void Skills, by combining thousands of elements in this universe and using the Void attribute as a basis, Issei is able to create one of the most dangerous celestial bodies in this universe.
But there is one problem.
“Must be careful to use it in the future,” Issei muttered while looking at his clenched hands.
Issei hasn't even used the maximum power of this skill but the damage done is very severe. That's why Issei put this skill into the Ultimate level, which means the level of damage caused by the skill is very large.
Besides the Void Skill, Issei has also created several other skills, including the five elemental skills commonly found in anime and manga: Fire, Water, Wind, Lightning, and Earth.
Each skill also has a tier, which Issei ranks based on the damage it causes. Starting from the lowest tier, which deals very little damage, to the Ultimate tier, which delivers devastating damage. Black Hole is the latest skill Issei has added to the Ultimate tier.
“That's a good skill, Velmeer,” said a voice from behind him.
Issei turned his head and saw Veldanava coming to visit him, “Hey, brother. You’re awake.”
“Yeah, I want to go for a walk a bit,” Veldanava said while standing beside Issei, “It looks like you've just been training.”
“Yeah, I just tried the skill I just made.”
“I can see that the skill is very powerful,” Veldanava said while looking around him.
"I guess I have to be careful using it," said Issei stretching his body, "By the way, what are you doing here, brother?"
“Ah, about that… I'll begin it."
Issei's body immediately froze when he heard Veldanava's words, he then slowly turned his head while widening his eyes.
"Serious?" he asked.
Veldanava nodded in response with a smile.
“Yes, I will begin the Age of Life.”
Time began to flow.
