章節 567: VS Ares part 3

The same as with Ares, Kisuke also healed his existing wounds.

"Hoo? So this is what you used to catch Hades off guard? What an interesting Devil you are..." Ares smiled widely before disappearing from his spot leaving the words, "But that won't be enough."

Eyeing Kisuke like a helpless prey, Ares reappeared beside him and thrust his spear with a speed greater than anything he showed before. However, he was shocked to see that Kisuke just casually followed his movements with his eyes and already raised his left arm out to intercept and his right arm was holding his blade, already coming for the arm that was holding his spear in retaliation.

Nevertheless, Ares only sneered at him and continued his attack, 'Underestimating me, huh?'

Ares' blood-red spear hit Kisuke's arms and immediately felt the resistance from it that surprised him a little. But even then, his spear still easily went through Kisuke's arms, cutting it.

Yet, that's all Ares was able to do as the trajectory of the spear was altered and he immediately felt Kisuke's sharp blade going through his forearm.

Since he already got an advantage, Ares retreated and stopped a distance away from Kisuke who was already missing an arm and watching his severed arm being reduced to nothing.

"It's one of this spear's abilities. It'll reduce the effect of any regeneration skills and would destroy anything that is severed from a body completely," explained Ares as his wound on his arm visibly closed and healed.

Kisuke ignored his disintegrating arm and looked towards Ares who slowly made a shocked face as his arm grew anew within just a few seconds, "This second round will be long~."

Ares then started chuckling and charged at Kisuke in a wild rampage, "Interesting!"

This time, Kisuke properly dodged Ares' attack and tried to attack him from the openings he created. However, Ares' defenses with his shield were just as good as his attacks. Although Ares was moving like a rampaging bull, the finesse in his movements and his expertise with a spear and shield, which was greater than his use of a greatsword didn't disappear, making it incredibly hard to even counter-attack.

After all, Ares is an old existence that was born for war, lived for war, a God of War which represents the most brutal aspect of war.

Their clash moved to several small floating islands, obliterating them with shockwaves. Although Kisuke was faster than Ares, he can't land a decisive blow and could only take off some of Ares's flesh, but his aura would recover any damage he took in an instant.

On the other hand, Ares already took Kisuke's limbs multiple times but it'll just regenerate immediately, questioning the unique ability of his precious spear.

At some point, both of them already stopped talking and just did their best not to get hit by a fatal blow.

'The arranged time with Athena is nearing... I have to finish this up before even more Gods gather. I already expected this, but damn, Gods sure have a lot of hidden aces in their sleeves. Well, I guess that's normal since they've already lived for a very long time,' thought Kisuke while blocking Ares' spear with his palm and thrust his blade towards his throat.

Although Ares was able to dodge, Kisuke's blade still cut a part of his neck. However, thanks to his regenerative ability, it healed soon after, 'Although the city is safe, the realm's stability was already shaken due to this fight. I didn't expect that he could go this far. Just where did he come from? Either way, I have to kill him now before he becomes an even greater threat.' Ares thought as he was genuinely shocked. After all, he's one of the 10 strongest beings in the world.

With both of them coming to a decision, Kisuke and Ares separated from each other with wounds all over their bodies. It became obvious that their regenerative powers are not as powerful as when they first showed it.

Meanwhile, the Gods who're watching were gobsmacked. They all thought that only someone at Sirzechs or Ajuka's level from the Devil's side would be able to compete head-on with Ares, but they realized that they were sorely mistaken and became on guard against the single Devil that invaded them.

While some of them wanted to capture Kisuke, most of them wanted to kill him as an unknown fear took hold of their hearts.

"I must admit. You are strong," said Ares as his wounds heal, "Which is why it's such a shame, but I have to kill you right here, right now. An unknown threat like you targeting Olympus, I'll have you eliminated before you could improve and threaten the very foundation of our Faction."

Suddenly, the golden aura surrounding Ares disappeared and the red aura became thicker now similar to a blood mist revolving around him.

While watching him change again, Kisuke replied, "I don't really have to do anything regarding that since you'll destroy Olympus yourselves. I'm only here for an act of small revenge."

Ares eyed him for a few seconds before muttering, "So you're aware... All the more reason to get rid of you then."

A second later, the blood mist surrounding him suddenly entered the pores of his skin. Soon, a heartbeat loud enough to be heard from anyone in Olympus came from Ares as he suddenly grew bigger, now around ten meters tall.

As his face became warped in a rage similar to that of a Nio statue from Japan, his eyes and hair became pure red and his skin became covered with red markings.

Along with it were his spear and shield changing their size to match his current stature.

And lastly, instead of becoming, even more, pronounced, Ares' aura actually almost disappeared. In an amateurs' eyes, he became a lot weaker instead, but for those Gods and Kisuke that were watching, it's the exact opposite.

'I already expected this, but not to this extent. Dammit! Looks like I'm still underestimating them. Such an annoying mistake,' thought Kisuke as he gritted his teeth in surprise. He then thought of activating the spells and kidou that he prepared but ultimately decided against it, 'No... If I activate those now, I'll be throwing out the benefit I could get in the long run for a short-term benefit. Although it's risky, I'll have to do it.'

Kisuke then glanced at his beloved blade, 'Oh my dear Benihime, are you ready?'

Kisuke heard Benihime's sonorous chuckle in his head, 'Anytime~ Though I would have to remind you. You can only keep it for five seconds or less. Any more and your soul will become too strong for your current body to contain. If that were to happen, the destruction of your body will be the least of your concerns.'

'I know. If my body were to be destroyed in that state, my soul will continue to mutate endlessly until I lose my sense of self. And to be honest, although I'm interested in how my soul would mutate, if I can't observe it then that idea goes to the trash bin.'

Chuckling was again, Benihime replied, 'The fact that you're still interested in that, makes me proud, master~.'

However, Ares didn't let Kisuke reply to Benihime as he suddenly appeared in front of Kisuke with a speed that doesn't befit his size. And instead of his spear, Ares smacked Kisuke to the ground with his shield.

Creating multiple shockwaves by breaking the speed of sound several times, Kisuke crashed into the ground, creating a gigantic crater, pulverizing the earth around him, and starting an earthquake that is more powerful than magnitude 10, shaking the whole realm for a few seconds.

Kisuke's body was mangled and despite his regenerative abilities, he couldn't heal as fast. Not just that, when Kisuke tried to move, he found himself pinned in place by something unknown, 'That's the shield's ability?'

Not letting this chance go, Ares threw down his spear, impaling Kisuke in the chest, "Gaha!!!!"

As soon as the spear went through him, Kisuke could feel his life force being absorbed and his soul energy being dispersed.

28th00: I thought Hades was the only Olympian in the Top 10? There're so many characters in the Top 10 that it should just be called top 50 at this point, honestly.

Goyya: Although top 10 sounds amazing, in this case, it's anything but that. After all, no one really tracks these ranks and who knows when it was last updated. At this point, the top 10 are just as credible as hearsays. On top of that, these top 10 are only for glory and those who don't care about it would rather hide their real strengths. Not to mention, those below the rankings doesn't mean they can't contend for the rank. It's really just a loose term when you think about it.


章節 568: VS Ares part 4

Kisuke grabbed the spear impaled in him and tried to pull it out but the spear suddenly grew roots made out of Ares' own blood that entangled with his organs, "Don't bother. Those won't let go unless you're dried dead."

Ares and everyone who was watching saw Kisuke slowly dry up and the light in his eyes disappeared.

Inside his haze, Morpheus frowned, 'Should I risk it?' But while asking that question in his head, a change suddenly occurred as Ares suddenly panicked and willed his spear to return to him.

The onlookers were shocked at his sudden action, but before they could make sense of what was happening, the dried-up Kisuke suddenly appeared in front of Ares with the light in his eyes back, albeit, a bit strange.

Ares hurriedly put up his shield in front of Kisuke as it lit up and met Kisuke's fist.

Ares was about to counter-attack with his spear, however, he was shocked to find the strength behind Kisuke's punch, "What!?"

Similar to Kisuke's state earlier, Ares was thrown to the ground, breaking the speed of sound several times and created a large crater that caused a huge earthquake. Nevertheless, Ares was able to keep himself on his feet and looked up to Kisuke who'd lost his entire arm that he used to punch due to the rebound effect of his shield.

However, the strange and bad feeling Ares had didn't disappear and as he stared at Kisuke's cold eyes, he came to the decision to use his trump card. Getting into a throwing stance, Ares' spear became an incorporeal and spiraling blood-red flame, "Extinction Spear!"

Those who're watching were more surprised than ever and the Gods immediately moved to secure the stability of the realm, "Ares has gone crazy!" Was shouted by one of them.

Athena and Nyx who came just now to watch in secret since they'd done their task were horrified. They wanted to help but it was already too late.

Throwing his spear towards Kisuke, it became ten times larger as it traveled the distance. Kisuke tried to evade it, but he was held in place by some unknown force once again, forcing him to make defensive maneuvers.

Putting a hexagonal shield in front of him, the spear engulfed and went through Kisuke, tunneling a hole through space and breaking the boundary of the realm. If the Gods didn't do any preemptive stabilization, the damage to the realm's boundary would be much larger.

The flame disappeared and the spear returned to Ares' hand. However, its shine already disappeared and there were some cracks on its shaft and blade.

But Ares didn't mind this and intently stared at the spot where Kisuke was.

Right now, only less than half of Kisuke was seemingly unconscious and only half of his upper body is remaining and most of it was charred black. Seeing this, Ares clicked his tongue, 'Tch... I wasn't able to fully obliterate him. He's a lot more durable than I expected. Nevertheless, the problem with him is already over.'

Ares then turned around while contemplating, 'But what was that strange feeling from earlier? What was he about to do?'

Athena couldn't help but grit her teeth in frustration, 'Our only hope...'

But then, Nyx suddenly nudged her, "A-Athena... L-look!"

Athena sighed and looked towards the direction that Nyx was pointing and her eyes became wide open, "W-what is that...?"

Ares who was already walking away felt some movements and hurriedly turned around, "He's still alive?"

Slowly, Kisuke's eyes opened, and coldly stared at Ares who was preparing for another attack to finish him off. But before Ares could continue his movements, a sudden heavy pressure that was placed directly on his soul came crashing down and he almost buckled under it, 'I-Impossible! Even if I'm weakened by that last attack, for something like this...!'

In front of all the onlookers, Kisuke's missing body parts suddenly grew back, but not just that as a white-colored tail similar to that of a dragon also grew behind him along with his other horn.

His Devil wings, meanwhile, entirely disappeared and were replaced by swirling black energies that formed 12 pairs of wings.

Finally, a thin jet black halo that was radiating black rays outwards appeared on top of Kisuke's head and around his horns.

"What are you!?" shouted Ares at him as he tried to resist the pressure coming from him.

However, Kisuke didn't answer him. No. It's more like Kisuke couldn't afford to talk to him as he was trying his best to regulate the energies within him.

Since he couldn't stay like this for much longer, he put forward his left arm and manifested a black ball of energy, a black Cero.

He then lifted his right and placed Benihime within the black Cero. A second later, the black Cero morphed and followed the shape of Benihime, covering her with dense and destructive energy.

Seeing this, Morpheus immediately shouted to his fellow Gods, "Hurry! Activate the formation! Move everyone out of the city!"

Instead of trying to defend the city, Morpheus figured out that it'd be better to move the citizens away from inevitable harm.

The other Gods also had the same opinion after seeing Kisuke's current state and used their Divinities to activate a certain spell that would instantly evacuate everyone in the city of Olympus.

While maintaining eye contact with Ares, Kisuke lifted Benihime on top of his head and brought it down, "Kireru, Benihime (Sever, Benihime)."

Ares wanted to get away, but similar to Kisuke from earlier, he was held by some strange force resulting in him receiving Kisuke's attack head-on.

A black flash went through Ares and the city behind him in an instant, before the God of War and the metropolis were split into halves, while the former was making an uncomprehending face.

After releasing that attack, Kisuke instantly reverted to his human form and fell down from the sky. Before he reached the ground, he immediately activated several of the defensive barriers that he'd prepared before coming here.

Athena and Nyx watched the city divided into two by a large crevice with an unknown depth. However, they do know that Kisuke's attack just now created a large split in the realm's boundary, and if not fixed asap, the Dimensional Gap will slowly eat the realm.

But while they were watching this spectacle in horror, something else scared them even more, "Heya~ Sorry for being late~ Though it took a while, I was able to gather everyone's attention~!"

"Hii---!!!" Nyx immediately hid behind Athena in fear. Her former trauma resurfaced with greater intensity.

Athena looked outside towards the tattered Kisuke inside his multi-layered barrier and the Gods who were to break it open. She then looked back to the grinning Kisuke in front of him, virtually unscathed. She wanted to ask how he's uninjured, but upon closer look, his aura was weak and turbulent and instead asked, "Will you be okay?"

"Thanks for the concern, but I'll be fine after some rest," replied Kisuke.

Athena wanted to ask more but it was not her place to inquire deeper.

Kisuke then looked towards Ares who was split in half before muttering, "So that shield really has that ability."

Athena also looked towards Ares' corpse that suddenly started moving and as if time rewound, putting himself back into one piece. However, his overwhelmingly large muscles were gone as he became skinny to the point that everyone could see his ribs. In addition to his very weakened self, the shield on his left arm was split into two despite not taking any damage from the attack before.

"The Spear of Mars that is capable of annihilating any life and the Shield of Mars that is capable of reversing fate," uttered Athena, "The shield became a substitute to the fatal attacked he received, but in exchange, it siphoned most of his Divinity and would take years to return to his former strength. But most importantly, it'll take at least a century to repair that shield. You just took away his second life."

"Well, I already understood that the moment I 'killed' him," Kisuke then turned around and said, "Let's go. We don't have much time."

28th00: That Void-Dragon-Angel form has to be from all the blessings and the relation he has to Ophis. His Angel parts should be from his devil heritage being incredibly malleable and reverting to pre-corruption stat through use of Ophis' void? Something like that. Magic wish rock plot device lets you cheat with measly 'barriers' like that after all. I wanna see Phis-chama fandragon over that form and say with sparkles in her eyes "Dragons are the strongest!", since Mr.Hat became a dragon when he got stronger, it has to be true!

Goyya: From this point, Void has nothing to do with his transformation. It's mainly from his Hollow, Shinigami powers, and the power within his Physical Body, completely merging temporarily thanks to the Hougyoku. Although his appearance was influenced by his Devil Lineage. Ajuka will be commenting about this later and Kisuke will explain some of it through monologue.

Ehem. Thank you very much for reading until this point.

Due to some IRL stuff that I need to take care, the next update would be 4-5 days and I could only guarantee 1-2 chapters by then.

I only posted 4 chapters in pat reon today but I posted 5 here since I know a lot of people would throw their pitchfork at my direction if I were to stop at the previous chapter.

Hope you enjoyed that and have a great day~!
