Supreme Harem God System-Chapter 2006 A Battle with one’s own self.

'Shit.'

Nux cursed.

Just as he expected, the instant the other Nux noticed something out of the norm, he increased his speed. Their exchange, which usually lasted for a few minutes, was now lasting for about 30 minutes. Even when he tried to distance himself, the other Nux followed.

Obviously, the longer the exchange continued, the more mistakes Nux made. A part of his mind was still trying to comprehend the Law of Causality. In simpler language, he was facing his own self, with 95% of his mind focusing on the battle, while his own self was going all in.

Even though Nux was still able to hold on just fine for a few minutes, the moment the battle became longer, he faltered.

And the other him didn't miss that.

Finally, his other self distanced himself from Nux and instead of attacking Nux and taking advantage of his weakened self,

His other self started looking around.

'He realized it.'

Nux narrowed his eyes.

His other self realized he was trying to comprehend something. Yes, instead of using his advantage, he was trying to understand what his opponent was trying to do,

Exactly what Nux would do. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

'Tsk.'

Nux snorted as, suddenly, he dashed forward and attacked his other self.

This time, the one who was trying to create distance between them after a small exchange was the other Nux. He was trying to understand what Nux was trying to comprehend.

Something that Nux couldn't allow him to do.

So he went all in.

He used 99% of his mind in the battle and attacked continuously, forcing his other self to focus on him.

The other Nux realized what Nux was trying to do, so he decided to do something unexpected as well.

He rushed at Nux and retaliated against his complete assault.

Yes, he had dropped everything and decided to attack instead.

The other Nux realized that Nux now held the advantage. However, to realize that advantage, Nux needed time. So the other Nux decided not to give him that.

The race between the two changed.

Now, the two no longer had the same goal.

Nux now wanted to comprehend the Law, while the other Nux wanted to overpower and defeat Nux before he comprehended the Law.

'Tsk!'

Again, Nux clicked his tongue. The other Nux's punch grazed his shoulder again. This had become much more common. Even when he was using 99% of his mind in this battle, the 1% advantage the other Nux had was showing.

More and more of his attacks came close to connecting. The same exchange had now been going on for about 2 hours. During this, Nux tried to distance himself more than once, but he failed every single time.

The other Nux was now superior.

His attacks had now started connecting. Nux's face, abdomen, legs, shoulders, hands — they had all started bruising and slowing down, and the other Nux was pressing this advantage even further.

Now, it wasn't a battle between two equally skilled Nux.

It was now a battle between a peak-conditioned Nux and a somewhat bruised Nux.

It was a battle Nux was destined to lose. If he took a few more full-blown attacks, the advantage the other Nux had would become too big, and the battle would be over in a matter of minutes.

He needed to do something, and he needed to do it now.

Therefore, Nux suddenly took a kick to his stomach and, using the force generated from it, he jumped back and… ran away.

His breathing had become somewhat ragged. He had been fighting to his limits for hours now. Let alone him, even his other self, who was focused solely on fighting, looked somewhat exhausted.

Nux, however, didn't have time to care about all that. No matter how bad the other him's condition was, it was far better than his own. He needed to succeed here.

The other him was obviously not going to let him do whatever he was planning and chased him. However, by the time he caught up, he realized Nux had paused on his own.

The other Nux frowned, unable to understand why Nux would even do it. For now, however, he didn't give Nux time to rest, recover, or comprehend, so he dashed forward. But then,

He tripped.

Nux grinned at the sight.

The other Nux's body language changed. He was… confused.

Just like how Nux was the first time he had tripped. Of course, Nux didn't give him more time to think and,

Bam

He punched his face.

For the first time ever since the battle started, Nux had hit the other Nux. Of course, the other Nux fought back, and another exchange started, but this time,

Nux was winning.

The ground beneath them was uneven, and because of that, the other Nux stumbled more than once even when he was stepping correctly.

After all, stable footing wasn't the only thing needed to avoid tripping here. One had to understand the concept of causality, which Nux now somewhat did.

Of course, what he knew still wasn't enough for him to gain an advantage. Heck, he couldn't even completely prevent himself from tripping and had tripped a few times as well.

Just that… his situation wasn't as bad as the other Nux, and that was all he needed.

The battle continued. Both Nux fought as they stumbled and lost their footing again and again.

This battle, however, gave Nux a bigger advantage than he was hoping for.

The more he stumbled, the more he realized how causality worked. Not just that — since the fight slowed down because both of them became careful of their surroundings, he could now allot more of his focus to comprehend causality instead.

Yes, by now, the other Nux understood the problem as well. However, even if he did, with the advantage Nux held, he knew the race was already lost.

The only thing he could do now was to defeat Nux before he comprehended the Law, but with the terrain now like this, it wasn't easy.

The two battled at a standstill again, as more and more hours passed by.

By this time, both of them were much more exhausted. Their movement speed had become incredibly slow, their bodies were in no condition to keep up with their brains, and of course, this was much more advantageous for Nux.

He could now shift even more of his focus to comprehending causality, and his comprehension speed rose even further. The other Nux, now that he had no other choice, started comprehending the Law in the back of his mind as well, not giving up even when the battle was lost.

Soon, the battle turned into a battle of attrition, where both sides took rest, battled again, tried surprise attacks and dirty tricks — anything that could help them win.

This continued for decades, until finally,

Nux formed his Law.
