Chapter 454: Who Will Be First (2)
“The concentration of the holy power is rising rapidly.”
“The causality is also rising rapidly.”
“Space and time are starting to expand.’
“The coincidence rate of the land and heaven is beyond 60%. There isn’t much time left until the dimensional union.”
The control room was a mess, and Jamie stood there with his arms crossed and staring at the large screen.
The scene of the battlefield could be seen on the screen.
The army of the Sun God had an amazing number, and the multi-race troops of the Black Tower were fighting against them. At present, the forces of both sides are at odds.
Even though the three major forces and the Valkyries arrived, the enemy also brought in similar reinforcements who were directly blessed by the Sun God.
Not just that, there was one Apostle.
“Blazer’s Apostle.”
The guy who was the Apostle of the Sun God was now a God. It was a similar case to Ricky’s but also different. It was because Blazer became a God by strengthening his powers.
That fact was surprising enough, but what was even more surprising was that he had an Apostle. An Apostle wasn’t something that could be made overnight.
It was the act of making a life before birth and making it theirs.
‘I thought Sarah was the only Apostle.’
But Sarah was the Apostle of Gaia, so her role was different from the normal Apostles.
She could use the powers like the other Apostles, but she didn’t have the characteristic feature, which was the descent of her God.
And this Apostle called Epina could do it. So this would be a crucial battle that could turn the tide of the war.
The difference that Ann worked hard to create until now turned into zero because of that.
“In the end, it turned out just as we had initially expected.”
Abset had an uncomfortable look. Just like he said, this wasn’t good.
On the other hand, they thought that they wouldn’t be defeated so easily either.
But they were able to prepare something like that?
‘Ra. You are so meticulous.’
No, was this even right?
Honestly, he didn’t know.
It wasn’t easy to understand his actions because he didn’t know what he was thinking.
However, he wasn’t sure if this was a disadvantage.
“It looks like we will put the one who’s been on standby into the game.”
With an Apostle appearing, the enemy’s holy power could descend at any time.
And in order to respond right away, measures had to be taken so that they could move.
“God of War…”
“No.”
Jamie thought, and he interrupted Abset.
He said,
“Go and prepare him.”
There was one God who was best suited for this.
“HAHAHAHAH!”
Epina burst into light and swung his sword. Despite his sloppy movements, Hasyath blocked it in a hurry.
What could be seen wasn’t everything. The opponent wasn’t just wielding his sword but also holy power. It felt like many tentacles were flying.
Hasyath’s eyes shone blue.
[Ability]
[The Blinded World]
It was the authority that could make him move accurately and pierce the slightest gap in the opponent.
The tentacles with holy power were all cut down.
Hasyath burrowed into Epina’s arms, and the blade that seemed to have split into dozens pierced his body.
However, the smile didn’t vanish from Epina’s face.
[Ability]
[Infinite Erosion]
Holy power came out of his body. Hasyath sensed that the opponent had vanished and moved back.
But the tip of the blade touched the holy power a little, and starting with that, the entire sword began to be taken down.
“No matter what you do, you cannot reach me!!”
The aura that soared to the sky fell on Hasyath’s head in one swoop. It was a super huge aura blade that made Blazer the strongest swordsman in the past.
But Hasyath wasn’t scared.
He had lived a long time and had come face to face with many strong men.
And there were opponents he couldn’t defeat among them, but he had gained experience.
He held his sword.
The blue light in his eyes didn’t vanish.
“Unless you are overwhelmingly stronger than me.”
Hasyath’s force changed.
With the sword hanging diagonally, he relaxed his body.
And at once, he clenched the muscles all around his body. His fighting spirit exploded, and his aura turned dark red.
His sword turned black.
“I will not lose to anyone.”
Even if it was an Apostle. He swung his sword upward, which had been directed downward.
Epina’s huge blade of aura and Hasyath’s dark red aura blade collided as if the sky had split.
Shiiiiing!
An optical illusion occurred, as if the sky and land were connected as one. The space collapsed, and the two energies spread out like a light, engulfing the battlefield.
[Ran’s monster and the unknown one are having the most absurd fight.]
[Is it the power of position? The world had changed a lot while we were away.]
[Enough, we just do what we have to do.]
The dragons moved to the other side so they wouldn’t get caught up in this, and so did the other races.
Hiyan was a bit overwhelmed by the strength that Hasyath gave out.
‘You were hiding so much strength?’
She had known Hasyath since he was a kid. Even then, Hiyan was the head of the High Elves, and Hasyath was the son of the Ran King.
From an early age, she saw him grow and observed him as he became King. However, even though she shared such a long life with him, like humans, Hasyath was a child to her.
“You have surely grown a lot.”
She mumbled as she flew towards the enemies.
“Don’t mind the other side. We will move here.”
At the same time, the distorted space returned to its original state, and a dark red aura rose to the sky. The energy of Hasyath spread through the vast land.
“This is…!”
Epina couldn’t hide his shock as his super large aura blade broke down.
Not only that, there was this beast shining in blue right in front of his nose and growling.
Both of his arms trembled.
It seemed that his muscles would burst out.
So how did things turn out like this?
‘It makes no sense. I am the Apostle of God, and that one is just a human, not even one of the three great races. So why am I being pushed back? An Apostle should be invincible.’
Right.
Except for the Gods, the Apostles had no opponents in the world. Not just the dragons, but the Rans and the High Elves couldn’t stand in front of them.
But there was one variable.
Three years had passed.
The warrior who was considered the strongest in the history of the Rans was Hasyath. And he worked with all his might.
Even in front of a strong enemy, he struggled not to fall easily. This was why the Apostle couldn’t defeat him.
‘This is impossible.’
He felt that something was wrong.
Hak!
Cracks opened where the blades clashed. Epina’s eyes shook as Hasyath spoke with murderous intent,
“I told you. I won’t give you the time to call your God.”
His hoarse voice rang through his ears, and the sword began to gnaw at the blade of the Apostle.
Epina shouted, his veins about to burst out,
“Do not make me laugh!”
[Ability: Infinite Erosion]
Everything that existed would begin to erode. But not Hasyath.
The dark red aura that covered his body burned more, not letting Epina’s ability touch him.
“Don’t you know that ability can be canceled with a stronger force?”
“Y-You, are saying you are stronger than me?”
“No.”
“Kuk. You should know your place. You cannot be stronger than me. This has to be a coincidence. Even if I can…”
“I am not stronger than you. I am.”
Hasyath’s body raged more, and he realized something.
What has been his growth in the past three years?
He felt helpless as he encountered that monster in the Rotomo Strait. His daughter was chosen as the God of War, and he didn’t feel jealous about it.
He didn’t want to be strong like that. However, it felt like his past hardships had been useless, and he couldn’t do anything after that.
The World Tree that had been entrusted to Sara was now beneath him.
So he felt it.
“I am overwhelmingly stronger than you.”
Hasyath was born for this day. His sword split Epina’s sword in half.
Epina didn’t even have the time to say anything as the blade dug into his shoulder. He hurriedly tried to grab the blade with both hands, but the sword cut through his body faster.
“N-No.”
His vision changed, and his body got separated.
A huge amount of blood poured out. Seeing that sight, Epina tried to generate holy power. Since he was an Apostle he could reattach his body as long as not a long time had passed.
He had lost a lot of blood, but if it was a miracle of God, he could be revived.
“Abandon that false hope. I will not let you live.”
“Damn it.”
Hasyath thrust his sword into Epina’s head without hesitation.
It was noisy everywhere.
The clashing sound of blades, magic exploding, arrows piercing, and someone shouting in the middle of all of that.
Yet, in such a place, Hasyath felt at peace. He had this strong feeling that he had served the purpose of everything in his life, and there was nothing more for him to do.
So he thought about stepping back, but then something came out of Epina’s head.
It was a black hand, and it grabbed Hasyath’s sword and broke it.
Then someone began to crawl out of Epina’s head. He brushed his back straight and swept his head.
A large greatsword was thrust into the floor.
Anyone would say that he had a filthy appearance, but Hasyath didn’t avert his eyes.
He looked at the black man in front of him. He wore a light outfit that was easy to move around in.
It was a man with no distinctive features other than his dark skin.
That was a common skin color on the southern continent, so Hasytah wasn’t surprised.
“You don’t seem surprised.”
The black man brushed off all the body fluids on his body and asked, without even looking at Hasyath.
To which he replied,
“Maybe because my purpose is done.”
“I see. Things are so twisted.”
The man tapped Epina’s head, whose shape was hard to figure out with his foot.
“I could have come in a more complete form, but it is unfortunate I came here like this.”
And he turned to Hasyath, who noticed his eyes were clear and transparent.
“If I had met you at a much later time, the fight would have been good.”
“So you are Blazer.”
He roughly knew him. The one who appeared from Epina’s body.
The body of an Apostle could only be used by a God. And the black man, Blazer, gripped his sword, which was stuck into the floor, with a sad expression.
“At this rate, my master will lose his face. I don’t want a great warrior like you to go to waste, but I hope you understand this.”
It was then.
Anne’s amplified voice came from far away.
[New God! The rate of causality has appeared! A God has appeared from somewhere!!]
“It is too late, even if you know.”
Blazer lifted the great sword and took a stance.
“Everyone will die.”
A tremendous holy power rose.
Hasyath felt like he would bounce back, but he managed to stay in place. It was a power on a whole different level from those he had met until now.
It felt so creepy that this God wasn’t even in a perfect state. However, he didn’t feel afraid.
“Now, it is your turn.”
Hasyath mumbled something that couldn’t be understood.
And the answer came,
“You worked hard, Hasyath.”
And Blazer swung his sword.
The enormous sword rushed to change the tide of the battle at the same time. However, the sword couldn’t advance any further.
A golden light shone, and then the two blades collided in a cross.
Blazer frowned.
“Not the God of War. You are…”
“Let’s see the end of this today. I will completely collapse the 12 Gods’ system.”
“Mercy and Punishment.”
At the appearance of Ricky, Blazer laughed as if he were having fun.
“This will be fun.”
“This isn’t a game.”
Ricky spoke with his golden eyes shining.
“The thing I’ll start with is ‘violence.’”
Then black mana began to fuse with his golden holy power.
