Chapter 197 - The Unattainable God
Rygar activated his Demon Eyes as soon as he finished speaking. Immediately, everything around him began to slow down.
Every detail, every movement, every trace of mana in the air became sharp, revealing a world hidden to ordinary eyes. The silhouettes of the soldiers around him gathered by the hundreds, assuming new positions with speed and precision.
Some ran to encircle him, others took firing positions, and others spoke with their commanders seeking orders.
There was no one very close to Rygar anymore, only the charred remains of bodies and floating embers, illuminating the field with the red-orange glow of the flames left by his Hell Slash.
That strike had opened a circle of destruction around him, a ring of death that isolated him from his enemies for a few seconds, which was exactly what he needed.
The troop movements—mages, shooters, and elites—were being executed with astonishing coordination. They had prepared for this, for him.

He had the Beast God Style Prediction, a sixth sense akin to future sight, which allowed him to detect any direct danger to his life.
He had the Golden Demon Eyes, which allowed him to see and understand any magical trap and observe his situation calmly, slowing his perception.
