The Planet Lord lay at the bottom of the crater, stunned by how easily Arthur had knocked him down.
Despite the immense power he was currently wielding, Arthur's attack had broken through his multi-layered barrier, wounded him, and worse yet, the wound refused to heal.
On a side note, Arthur hadn't even used his Progenitor Authority. He had simply attacked with pure anti-divinity, this time putting actual intent behind the strike instead of casually throwing out a punch.
The power of his Unique Authority had then gone on to negate the temporal energy that had previously allowed the Planet Lord to recover from Arthur's earlier punch.
Still in disbelief, the Planet Lord tried to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he caught a flash of silver in the sky and immediately rolled away, just in time to avoid Arthur descending on the spot he had occupied a second earlier.
