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~!

章節 569: Zeus

Truthfully speaking, Kisuke felt relieved when Ares was revived, 'Whew~ That was really close. If he stayed dead, then all those preparations were for naught!'

Athena and Nyx silently led Kisuke towards a certain corner of the city. The three of them then arrived at a very normal stone house. But the moment, Athena opened the door, Kisuke immediately felt the fluctuation in space.

When they entered, the inside of the small stone house was actually a palace, "Whew~ What a neat trick~!" commented Kisuke as he looked around.

"This way, please," Since they didn't have much time, Athena didn't entertain Kisuke and immediately led him to the innermost room and knocked on its door, "Father, I'm back."

A deep manly voice came from inside the room, "Come in."

"Excuse me," Athena opened the door and the three of them came into a wide luxurious room.

Kisuke entered the room last and immediately checked the room for an instant before turning his attention towards the tall man standing by the window, overlooking the divided city. The man turned around and smiled at Kisuke, "Welcome, Kisuke Urahara. I'm Zeus, the former leader of Olympus. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise~ It's nice to meet you," replied Kisuke.

Zeus is an old man with white hair and a beard, but despite that, He's emitting a vigor comparable to playful youngsters, giving him a contradictory aura.

"I want to entertain you and have a good talk but," Glancing towards the 'Kisuke' inside the barrier he continued, "I can see that you can't afford to stay any longer."

Kisuke nodded at him, "It's really such a shame," Kisuke then unsheathed his blade from the cane, "Well then, please let me finish my business here."

"Kisuke?" asked Athena in confusion at his sudden action.

However, Kisuke just ignored her and stepped in front of Zeus. He then lifted his blade and aimed for his heart.

"W-what!? No! Stop!!!" Athena was about to intercept Kisuke but Zeus looked at her and signaled her to stop.

Zeus then looked towards Kisuke and apologized, "I apologize. Although she's very smart, compared to other Gods, she's very inexperienced."

"If she was, I wouldn't be here, nor she," Kisuke plunged his blade through Zeus' heart without any hesitation.

Nyx, especially Athena, jumped in fear as they didn't know what's going on. However, before the latter lost her patience, Kisuke took out his blade, leaving no wound nor scratch on Zeus' body.

"Impressive," muttered Zeus as he touched his chest and recalled the earlier sensation that an itch was directly cut down.

Thanks to his experience with Apollo's poison, Kisuke was able to devise a method that allowed him to cut it down directly using Benihime's help. Not only is this method is a lot faster, but it's also a lot safer as this won't give the poison any time to react to anything that disturbs it. However, as a consequence, only Kisuke is capable of doing this.

Kisuke sheathed back his blade and replied, "Thank you for your compliment."

However, Zeus shook his head, "It's me that should be grateful."

"It's a deal that I and your daughter agreed on. No need to be thankful regarding that."

"I'm not just thankful regarding that. I'm also thankful that you didn't plant another poison to control me as you have to my daughter."

Athena's body shook, awakening her from her stupor due to earlier events, "F-father... How?"

Kisuke couldn't help but smile and said, "I believe Athena-san couldn't have told you that."

Zeus sighed, "As you might have expected, I'm her father. And not just that, she's also the daughter I dote on the most. Considering her state sometime earlier and the current situation, I was able to connect the dots. Though, it was mostly speculation before this."

Kisuke chuckled after hearing his explanation, "As expected of the former leader of an ancient faction~"

Nevertheless, Zeus ignored Kisuke's flattery and looked at him with suspicion, "Hence, we go back to my previous point. Why didn't you plant a poison of your own to control me? If it's enough to control Athena, it should be enough for me too."

"Zeus-sama. What I want is not a slave but an ally. I hope that answers your doubts."

Zeus became silent and closed his eyes as he combed his beard with his right hand. However, that didn't take long as he opened his eyes again after a minute and sighed, "So instead of Athena, your aim was actually me from the start, huh? Really impressive."

This time, it's Kisuke's turn to be surprised.

On the side, both Athena and Nyx were confused with their exchange, "Aiming at you from the start? What do you mean, father?" asked Athena.

"It's only my guess and I only have a general idea," Zeus replied to Athena before looking back to Kisuke, "But if you don't mind, could you enlighten me on your thought process? I'm really curious about it."

"Very well," Kisuke nodded at him, "It all started when I encountered Athena-san for the first time and figured out that there's some power struggle within your faction."

"Huh? But I don't remember ever telling you anything about that at that time." Athena became incredibly confused.

Kisuke looked at her and replied, "You didn't but I got that idea when you briefly talked about your faction."

"Then you're just guessing! And what use would that be?"

"Ever since Hades started snooping around Kuoh Town, I also went through some things to prepare for the future. And I encountered you in Greece, putting you under my control became one of my strings against Hades. More specifically, you became the string for me to create a connection with the leader of Olympus, Zeus-sama," Kisuke then shrugged his shoulders, "However, due to this annoying poison, most of those plans were thrown out of the window."

"S-so you didn't control me so that you can order me around but to connect you with father?" asked Athena with an unbelieving face.

Kisuke nodded, "That's the main idea, or else, did you think Serafall-sama would have trusted you when you made contact with her? I specifically gave her some clues to trust you."

Athena became even more confused. All this time, she thought that Kisuke only 'enslaved' her so that he could order a God around or out of necessity due to the situation they had at that time. Being told that she was controlled so that he could make a simple connection to her father, she just couldn't accept it, not her and her pride, "B-but what if instead of making a connection, you became hostile with my father!? After all, although not exactly, he noticed the situation I'm in!"

Kisuke sighed in response, "Have you forgotten or are you just too worked up? You can't reveal my identity to anyone. And even if you can, it doesn't really change the situation I'm in because it's only a matter of time before Hades discovered me after dealing with his men."

"And please remember that I did that with the power struggle in mind. I placed my bets on the fact that I would give a hostile faction against Hades a signal. Be it a good or bad signal, it didn't really matter that much. The important thing is that there are options that would open up."

Zeus nodded at his words, "He's correct. Since I noticed it, I have two choices and also took a gamble of waiting to see what's going to happen."

"S-so you two, without meeting each other, played a waiting game using Athena?" asked Nyx in disbelief.

Kisuke and Zeus looked at each other before closing their eyes and rubbing their chins, "Hmm... You could say that," both of them replied.

Editors:

28th00: You gotta remember, Zeus and them have had thousands of years and a revision by the Romans to 'grow up' from their chaotic days in the beginning. They're all very old and experienced now. Mostly. The leaders at least.

Goyya: That's why Kisuke can't just fool them. They have the same amount of experience or even more.
