CH-10. 7 Commanders Vs Ravi

After making his new castle, the second thing Ravi did was to fasten the time of his dimension. So that he could stay here for a longer time and when he went outside not much time would have gone.

"Hmm, this much must be fine." Ravi said, as he fastened the time inside his dimension. Now if he stays for 1 hour inside his dimension then only 1 minute will pass in the outside world.

Now that all the arrangements were finished, Ravi turned and looked at his 7 commanders, who were still standing in a straight line with their heads down and their right hand on their left chest, other than Kamish.

After feeling so much power inside him, Ravi wanted to fight some strong opponents and who could be better than his 7 commanders. They all were strong, and on top of it they could resurrect in an instant even if some dies during the fight, which means he could fight them as much as he wanted.

"Let's play a game shall we." Ravi said gathering his 7 commanders' attention which he didn't needed to because from the moment he appeared in his dimension, their attention was already on him completely.

"You 7 will fight me on one time and whoever impresses me the most will get the chance to go outside with me for one day and stay inside my shadow the whole time."

Ravi announced his offer and the reason why he did this was because he knew that his commanders wouldn't dare to fight against him out of respect.

Hearing their King the eyes of the 7 commanders shined with determination and motivation to impress their King. The most excited one was none other than Beru, who even looked at the other commanders with a wide smile on his ant face. 

"Kekekeke, get ready to lose you six." 

Seeing him acting like this the other commander didn't say anything and decided to ignore him, and Ravi also didn't mind because in Solo Leveling he liked Beru the most out of all the other shadow soldiers.

.....

In an open ground, Ravi stood in the center. His presence was an unyielding force, the very embodiment of the Shadow Monarch. Around him, his seven most powerful commanders were standing Bellion, the leader of his immortal army; Beru, the formidable Ant King; Tusk, the great magician; Igris, the silent knight; Greed, the insatiable reaper; Jima, the deadly assassin; and Kamish, the colossal dragon.

Ravi's eyes glinted with excitement, "Let's start the game." and he commanded.

Bellion was the first to respond, his massive frame surging forward. His long sword, crackling with dark energy, swung towards Ravi with blinding speed.

Ravi was many times faster than Bellion and could see his sword coming towards him, he raised his right hand with his claws out, covered them with his energy and met the attack head-on, his claws blocking the assault. The clash of their weapons echoed through the shadow world, sending ripples of power through the air.

The ground under their feet cracked like spider webs in who knows how kilometers, sending strong winds in all directions. 

The reason why Ravi covered his adamantium claws was to make them more stronger. 

Ravi using his ruler's authority pulled Bellion down, putting him on his knees and with his left land punched him but with not his full strength, sending him away with a loud sound. 

Boom!

Beru, with his insect-like agility, darted in next. His claws slashed at Ravi with a ferocity that could tear through anything. Ravi sidestepped, his movements fluid and precise, countering with a flurry of strikes with his own claws that forced Beru back.

Tusk began chanting a spell, the air around him shimmering with arcane energy. A torrent of black flames erupted from his staff, engulfing Ravi. But Ravi just raised a finger, absorbing the flames into his shadow and redirecting them towards Greed, who was approaching with his scythe ready to strike.

Greed deflected the flames with a spin of his scythe, his eyes locked onto Ravi. He vanished in a blur, reappearing behind Ravi to deliver a lethal strike. But Ravi was ready, his shadow tendrils wrapping around Greed and throwing him aside.

Igris and Jima attacked in unison, Igris with his relentless swordplay and Jima with his trident, precise strikes. Ravi didn't move from his place and took their attacks and countering with devastating efficiency. His claws clashed with Igris's, while his shadow tendrils parried Jima's trident.

While blocking and attacking their attacks with ease, Ravi raised his leg and with great strength struck the ground, sending Igris and Jima away by the strong pressure. 

Rumbling!

Ravi struck the land so hard that the whole land was shivering, showing a little bit of his strength, and don't forget that this is his dimension made by his own power, which means it's not weak.

If he had struck the land with his full strength, then the whole dimension would have been destroyed.

Roar!

Kamish, the most fearsome of them all, roared and unleashed a torrent of dark flames from above. The ground trembled under his might. Ravi looked up, with a smile on his face. Using his ruler's authority he controlled the flames and sent them again towards Kamish, making the former dodge it.

The battlefield was a whirlwind of darkness and power, each commander giving their all. But Ravi was relentless. He blocked their every attack and attacked back without even moving from his place.

By getting Shadow Monarch's powers, Ravi not only got the information of how to use them but he also got his fighting techniques and his mindset. The time he buys a power it makes him more confident in using it and the fear inside him gets erased.

Bellion charged again, his blade humming with power. "We won't disappoint you, my liege!"

Ravi smiled, with a fierce and proud expression. "That's what I expect from my commanders."

With a burst of lightning speed, Ravi closed the distance to Bellion, Bellion's sword and his claws clashing once more. Ravi's power surged, overwhelming Bellion and sending him crashing to the ground.

One by one, Ravi faced his commanders, each clash a testament to their loyalty and strength.

Beru fell next, his body collapsing under Ravi's relentless assault. Tusk's spells were nullified, and he was struck down.

Greed's scythe was shattered, and he was subdued. Igris and Jima, despite their coordinated attacks, were overwhelmed and defeated. Kamish, the last to fall, roared defiantly before succumbing to Ravi's might.

The whole land was completely destroyed, big craters and holes were formed on it.

As the dust settled, Ravi stood tall amidst his fallen commanders. His shadow world was silent, the echoes of battle fading away. He looked upwards at his loyal soldiers, a sense of pride swelling within him.

Using his ruler's authority he put those who couldn't fly in the air with others who could, so that they wouldn't come between the fight.

Ravi looked at the destruction he caused while he was playing and with just a flicker of his finger cracks, craters, holes and the destruction he caused was restored to how it was before.

"Well done." He said softly, his voice carrying through the shadow world. Hearing him the 7 commanders in an instant appeared in front of him and kneeled down.

"You all fought well, but the one who impressed me the most."
