Chapitre 6: 6. Power of Divine Descendant
The Void shark hit head on was instantly annihilated.
It quite literally got blasted into nothing more than a plume of blood mist on direct impact, and with said impact, the lightning spear exploded, spreading the web of golden lightning out and frying many of the surrounding void sharks into a pile of charcoal!
The void sharks saw this tragic sight and backed up as they let out a tragic and mournful wail. But what made the captain frown was that although the void sharks backed up, they didn't completely retreat.
Instead, he could see them gathering some distance away. As they gathered together, he could see that the dorsal fin on the backs of the void sharks started glowing an even deeper purple. At the same time, purple lights began to flicker between the dorsal fins of the dozens of void sharks, resonating and harmonizing, creating a terrifying multiplicative effect.
As the captain saw this, his cold blue eyes narrowed even further as his expression turned completely ugly. The void sharks weren't retreating; instead, they were just regrouping to form an even stronger attack!
"How dare a mere monster stand in front of me! Not only do you invade the domain of the gods, you dare treat a vessel under the banner of the gods as prey!"
Although the captain felt slighted, what truly enraged him was that after breaking into the divine pathways, the void sharks still dared to remain.
It wasn't an insult against him but one against the gods! His divine ancestors were being mocked, and by some brainless creatures no less! Seeing that they dared to confront him, he wouldn't hold back.
Since ancient times, the punishment for ignoring the domain of the gods had always been one thing—complete and utter annihilation!
The divinity in his body began to bubble as he finally moved.
[Feat of Renown: Ogre Slayer!]
The captain let out a low growl as a tragic wail emanated from his body. It wasn't like that of a raging beast, but more like the tragic wails of a butchered animal. Even the most ruthless killer would feel cold after hearing such a tragic cry, much less these ignorant academy aspirants, but the captain didn't seem to notice or care.
Slowly, an 8ft tall phantom appeared behind the captain. It was bulky and muscular, emitting a wild aura that made one not dare look at it, just like an ogre from legend! Even the captain began to change. His bones crackled as his height jumped up a few centimeters, and muscles in his arm ballooned and squirmed as a familiar call escaped from his mouth.
Caelum brontē doru (sky thunder spear)
With the ancient call, a familiar golden spear coalesced in the captain's hands once more, only this time it was much larger, and the golden color was even darker. The giant arm of the ogre phantom merged with the captain's normal arm holding the spear.
If before, when pulling back his arm, the gathered power felt like pulling back a bow, now it was like pulling back a catapult—no, it was even more than that. Now it was like loading a howitzer! The very air around him began to tremble and shake as an unbelievable amount of power was gathered, the golden lightning erupting like a raging hurricane.
The captain's blue eyes flashed with a mystical divine light as he fired the spear.
"BOOM!"
For a few seconds, the world turned completely white. It wasn't as if he had fired a spear but more like a laser beam! The void sharks roared and charged towards the beam, with their entire pack wrapped around with an ominous purple energy.
The two energies clashed beautifully for a few seconds, but it amounted to nothing more than that. When a descendant of the gods got serious, how could mere monsters be a match?
The tide of golden energy didn't stop and swept across the entire group of sharks, painfully annihilating them on a molecular level until there was nothing left behind but a pile of ash.
Be it the aspiring students, the watching soldiers, or even a few unlucky passengers, all that were on the deck just paused in silence to admire this truly overwhelming display of might!
Watching his enemies get annihilated, the captain spoke out to the people below.
"Watch and watch properly! This is the power of divine descendants, the power of the gods! This is the power you will all be capable of in the future. So remember, with the blood of gods in your veins, nothing is impossible! Spread the glory of the gods throughout the cosmos and your power will be eternal."
The captain waved his hand, and the giant phantom and scattering lightning instantly disappeared, but this didn't make him any less intimidating to the people watching from below. His figure only grew mightier in the mind of the aspiring cadets watching on from below.
Aiden on the deck floor looked to Oliver with shock still evident in his eyes.
"Are all divine descendants that strong?"
"I don't know about the elders of my family, but I can guarantee that amongst the regular people in the family, absolutely none of them are his match. Even within the world of Olympus, such a man can never be considered weak!"
"The power of the gods, huh."
Aiden's anticipation for Olympus Academy just seemed to keep growing with each passing day.
...
Time continued to pass after the attack of the void sharks, and Aiden didn't have to wait too long before they arrived at the destination they had all been anticipating and waiting for, Olympus Academy!
Maybe it was because they had encountered enough bad luck, but after encountering the void sharks, their journey had been completely smooth.
Later, Aiden learned that encountering monsters inside of the gods' divine network was an extreme anomaly. Some people have been regularly using the divine network for decades and never ran into monsters inside of it.
They were really just that unfortunate.
