Rui's mind had entered a comfortable bliss.
It comforted him.
Eased him.
Soothed him.
And yet, a voracious hunger consumed him.
It drove him.
Spurred him.
Frenzied him.
Two opposing forces acted on his mind.
His being.
An existential tug of war.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
He felt released.
From the world.
From the shackles of the Human nature.
An endless peace surged within him.
Nothing mattered anymore.
Master Uma. Chairman Deacon. The Virodhabhasa Faith.
They ceased to exist.
Nothing mattered to him.
He was at peace.
And yet, a voracious hunger consumed him.
Hunger for victory.
For power.
Ambition.

The weight of a thousand Martial Art.
No Martial Art was beyond his reach.
Everything was his.
And yet, he offered them to the void within Rui.
One by one.
The battle raged as the void consumed every single Martial Art that he had to offer.
Until there was nothing else.
