The Extra Who Shouldn't Exist novel Chapter 272

Chapter 272: Chapter 272 : Light vs Darkness (2)

A faint hum filled the air as Kyle’s broken body began to pulse with dark light.

A system message flashed before his eyes.

[ 1000 Abyssal Points have been consumed to regenerate the body. ]

In moments, every wound vanished. The holes torn by lightning closed completely, and not a trace of injury remained—his body shining with abyssal perfection.

Evelyn’s eyes widened slightly, her expression tightening.

’That regeneration... that’s not natural.’

Kyle smiled faintly, brushing nonexistent dust from his shoulder.

"You’re different. Not normal, are you?" she said coldly.

He chuckled. "Neither are you," he replied lightly, then whispered, "Activate skill—Night’s Embrace."

[ Night’s Embrace has been activated. ]

The entire world went dark.

Evelyn blinked—and suddenly found herself elsewhere. The ground beneath her had disappeared. All around was a void infused with pure abyssal energy, endless and suffocating. The air was thick, alive, whispering in forbidden tongues.

Her perception—gone. Her divine senses—sealed.

She could not tell direction, distance, or space. Only darkness remained.

But even here, her rage did not fade.

"I see..." she muttered softly. "This is your world, isn’t it?"

Kyle’s voice echoed from every direction, smooth and distant.

"Correct. Here, I rule. In this place, your light means nothing. Your senses, your power, your will—they all belong to me."

Suddenly, a blade emerged from the shadows behind her—its edge slicing deep into her back. She gritted her teeth, refusing to scream. The next instant, dozens of arrows of abyssal energy materialized, piercing through her body in rapid succession.

Yet through the pain, her voice remained steady.

"Let there be light."

Radiance erupted from her body—golden and blinding. A domain of light exploded outward like a sunrise devouring the night. The abyssal darkness recoiled violently, evaporating under her holy radiance. Her wounds began to knit instantly, every trace of corruption erased.

For the first time, Kyle’s voice wavered slightly. "Interesting."

---

She raised her hands, her voice calm but filled with fury. Two swords of light materialized in her grasp, their edges humming with pure divinity. Across from her, Kyle conjured a single abyssal blade, black as death and long enough to split the air itself.

Without warning, they moved.

Light and darkness clashed at incomprehensible speed. Each swing released waves of energy that tore through the void, annihilating fragments of the dimension itself.

Their weapons collided, again and again, creating shockwaves strong enough to collapse entire planes. In one exchange, Evelyn’s swords slashed through Kyle’s neck, severing his head cleanly—only for it to reattach instantly, black mist swirling where bone had been broken.

In return, Kyle struck with a flurry of cuts, his sword slicing across Evelyn’s limbs. Deep crimson marks appeared, but her flesh shimmered with golden light and healed in seconds.

Sparks of divine light and abyssal flame danced across them as they battled in silence, their forms little more than blurs of gold and black.

Between strikes, Kyle smirked faintly. "So she really does have the same regenerative abilities as her brother. Interesting test."

Evelyn didn’t answer. Her blades glowed brighter as she charged, cutting a gaping hole straight through Kyle’s chest—crushing his heart. But before she could even exhale, his body pulsated again. The wound closed instantly.

She stepped back, her golden eyes narrowing.

’He’s devouring my light... my divinity... little by little.’

Clicking her tongue, she thought, ’But I can still kill him.’

She dashed forward again, her blades singing. Her strikes drove Kyle back step by step, pressing him harder with every movement. She carved deep wounds into his torso and arms, forcing him to kneel briefly.

Kyle laughed under his breath. Then his counterattack came—a sweeping wave of abyssal energy that exploded against her chest, sending her crashing through multiple layers of void.

Their battle became an endless exchange of power—Evelyn surging forward with divine fury, Kyle answering with consuming darkness. Each regeneration matched the other perfectly, their forces locked in eternal collision.

---

Meanwhile, Kyle’s thoughts raced in the midst of the chaos.

’At this rate, the fight will drag on far too long. I have other matters to attend to.’

He exhaled softly and spoke under his breath,

"System, use ten million Abyssal Points to break through to Monarch Rank directly."

[ Breaking through to Monarch Rank... ]

The air screamed. A massive concentration of abyssal energy poured into his core, the darkness of entire realms converging within him.

Evelyn felt it immediately. Her eyes widened in alarm.

’What is that...? I have to stop him!’

The universe around them began to tremble. The domain’s abyssal energy spun violently, condensing into a vortex of consuming darkness.

Evelyn clenched her jaw.

’I can’t let him finish that transformation!’

Golden energy surged from every pore of her body. Her twin swords glowed intensely, the runes inscribed on their edges igniting with celestial symbols. Light gathered violently around her, enough to tear apart the entire domain.

Silas’s world—the domain he had created—began to collapse from the sheer power.

Evelyn stepped forward, her aura of divinity expanding until her voice echoed like thunder itself.

"Divine Judgment: Trinity of Dawn."

Her sword aura divided into three immense waves of power, each one representing a stage of destruction and rebirth. The first wave, blazing with purity, rushed forward as she swung.

Kyle instantly erected an abyssal barrier around himself—a perfect sphere of condensed darkness. Black energy coiled and thickened, forming a shell strong enough to distort space itself.

The collision between the golden wave and the abyssal shield split the void apart. Stars were born and erased in the explosion of their collision, light and shadow devouring each other endlessly.

The explosion from Evelyn’s first strike ignited the dark dimension like a second sun. Darkness cracked, splintered, and screamed in protest against the divine light that had been unleashed.

Kyle stood at the center, his black barrier trembling violently. Cracks spider‑webbed across its surface as fragments of abyssal energy bled from the edges.

Evelyn’s golden eyes narrowed. Her second sword rose into the air, blazing brighter than the first.

"I won’t stop until you’re erased from existence," she declared.
