Chapter 35: Azu appears the match begins
---Moments before the battle---
In the hallway that leads to the VIP section of the gods
"Zeus, what are you changing the match up and so suddenly at that?" Odin the Chief God of the Norse Pantheon. Questioned as he glared at Zeus who had his back hunched and his expression solemn, his eyes were darker than usual while the air around him felt overbearing.
"What makes you think... we would win...?" Zeus slowly asked while he met eyes with Odin who frowned, the two ravens, Huginn & Muninn, who rested on his shoulders silently tried to hide themselves not daring to even make a sound. "Currently, the humans have won 4 battles... while we the so-called almighty gods have won 3... the humans need 3 more wins and we lose..."
Odin narrowed his eyes, "Why do you think we would lose? Is it because of those... three?" He questioned, the wind started to pick up making a vortex having Odin and Zeus in the very center. Odin's menacing aura started to leak out making the ground and the wall crack. But Zeus just stood there as if this was nothing and well, this was nothing.
"I dont have the confidence to win..." Zeus stated making Odin pause, "The boy is very strong... I can't tell how strong but... he is the strongest on the human side... followed by the two beside him..." He added making Odin's expression scrunch up, "They are different... nothing a human should be," Xeus added and walked passed Odin who stood there without a word.

"Why is he fighting Zeus!!!??? There is no way there he will win!!!" Goll exclaimed as she looked at Brunhilde who was gritting her teeth in rage.
"Geirölul, did you find him....?" Brunhilde questioned in rage as she glared at the Geirölul beside her.

"Huh? Nowhere, he just disappeared! That bastard ditched me! And he didn't even bother to acknowledge my existence!" Geirölul shouted while her fingers dug into her dress.
"Hey, sweet pie! You can't really be upset here!" And out of nowhere, a melodious and gentle voice came, causing the focus of the one who heard the voice to look at the direction it came from.
"Azu..." Scathach spoke out the name and immediately turned her head away not making any kind of eye contact.
Buddha was looking at the wall with his hand on his chin admiring the wall as if it were a piece of grand art, "This wall is so good to look at~!" He jokingly remarked making the three Valkyriegive him a weird look while, "Buddha noticed it and turned to them, "What? You should join me in admiring the wall,"
"Sigh... dont look into her eyes... you three are weak so you will die," Scathach stated making Goll open her eyes and mouth wide, Geirölul frowned while Brunhilde unhesitatingly looked at Azu who was surveying the god audience. "You can look at her but just not her eyes," She specified making Azu giggle.
"Oh come on! it is not that bad, you would just fall into a little slumber!" Azu playfully said making Ruphas lip twitch.
"little slumber you say... I almost lost my mind when I first met your eyes..." Ruphas complained as when she had returned she was face to face with Azu and of course, she was lost in the endless eyes.
"Have to admit that little slumber was probably the best one I had and also the worst one~! I almost died there..." Buddha could help add in making Azu giggle more. Buddh seriously looked at Valkyrie, "Absolutely do not look her in the eye," he solemnly stated making Valkyrie curious and take a glance but fortunately Azu was more focused on the gods than them so they didn't make eye contact.
"Your name is Geirölul, right? Well, I will answer your unasked question! Regal doesn't need you to fight or kill Zeus, if he let you join hands with him you would be more of a burden than any help!" Azu happily said making a nerver appear on Geirölul's forehead. "And as for why... that is because you are mortal and not a god," she stated making the Valkyrie and Buddha pause.
And just at that moment, Zeus entered the arena followed by Regal
"See that ring he is wearing?" Azu pointed out while her eyes fixed upon Regal, "That ring is a god! Ophis the little loli dragon god of Infinity, chaos, and nothingness!"Azu grandly introduced but her words didn't match her tone which was grandiose,
"That little girl is a god...?" Buddha could not help but question as he looked at Regal's hand where the ring was. "Seriously... I thought she was just a dragon spirit..."
Scathach shook her head while also looking at the ring. "She is a god, and she is very clingy to Regal... She sleeps a lot but when she wakes up she is not leaving Regal's side," she helplessly muttered making Azu laugh.
"Oh right!? if it wasn't for Ophis waking up from her sleep the two of you wouldn't leave, I pity that she woke up... I was really enjoying watching it~!" Azu teased making Scathach have a blank face. "Poor Ophis, her innocent mind had to process everything... now the little girl no longer has an innocent mind... worst case she would join you best cae she would join me in watching~!" Azu commented making Scathach's poker face almost break.
"Sigh... you really got popcorn and movie glasses just to watch up brawl..."
"Yes, I did! Now back to the arena, the match is about to start!"
----------------
Zeus and Regal stared at each other with smiles on their face as if they were going to fight a life-and-death match but were just there for a friend reunion. "Want to make a bet?" Regal playfully asked making Zeus smile brightly.
"~Sure! why not! I would be really happy to play another game!" Zeus happily said making the audience that were only gods caused another uproar which was naturally ignored by both Zeus and Regal.
"Alright then! Let's bet on the length of the match!" Regal matched Zeus's enthusiasm, Regal took some steps back which was followed suit by Zeus taking the same amount of steps Regal took while backing off.
"~Hmm, I would say more than 10 minutes ~! How about you!" Zeus's body started to bulk up and he grew with massive muscles.
(Image here!!!)
"Ho? Then I will bet under 10 minutes~!" The Growth Weapon Ophis which was taking a ring started to Morph into various shapes then it became black liquid that slowly went up Regal's arm and covered his whole body except the head.
Regal was wearing a plain t-shirt and shorts so it was visible but there were some tattoos-like markings that were taking shape on top of the black liquid.
"What is happening!! Regal Titanborn's body is covered in a black substance! And he isn't bound to any Valkary is he planning to fight Zeus with physical might without any Valkary to help!!!" Heimdall exclaimed as he got on a flying machine and took flight.
"Start the match already," Regal stated making Heimdall flinch and back off to the other side of the arena immediately.
"THE ROUND #8! ZEUS VS REGAL! A Match Between the Godfather of Cosmo and The Enigmatic Human!"
The match has begun!
Zeus being the Godfather made the first move, he walked over to Regal at a leisurely pace with a childish grin but his eyes were different they were murderous and filled with battle lust.
And the first attack was made!
