章節 171: Earth and steel
While the fierce battle was taking place in the starry sky, Athena and the others were not idle either. They faced Lakshmana who was known as the shadow of Rama and Hanuman. As a god called the shadow of Rama, of course Lakshmana was not weak, among the many steel gods, he was one of the strongest.
Athena held the death scythe in her hand and faced Lakshmana. while Stella, edelweiss, and Esdeath faced Hanuman.
Athena raised her scythe high, summoning the power flowing within her.
"In the name of Athena, I summon the eternal owl!"
A sparkling light appeared around Athena, and from the darkness, a large owl with shining eyes shot into the sky. The owl circled above Athena, ready to provide support in battle.
On the other hand, Lakshmana, with a dreamy aura like mist, prepared herself, a divine aura emanating from his body. With a swift movement, he swung his arm and prepared to attack. Lakshmana took out a sparkling holy weapon, filled with divine energy, and launched the first attack.
Athena was undeterred. With incredible speed, she jumped to the side, avoiding Lakshmana's attack that destroyed the ground beneath her. Facing Lakshmana's attack, Athena let the owl fly, and counterattacked Lakshmana while Athena attacked with her death scythe, the scythe emitting a dark light that seemed to be able to swallow light. The scythe was Athena's weapon as the goddess who ruled over darkness and the underworld.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Stella summoned her device and prepared to face Hanuman.
" Serve me, Laevatein!"
Stella raised her sword to the sky, and golden orange flames burned around her, enveloping her body in a fiery aura.
Hanuman, who was known as the monkey god, only smiled and sneered. "Foolish humans who oppose the gods!"
With incredible speed, Hanuman jumped towards Stella, swinging his arms with a force capable of destroying mountains.
Edelweiss, who was not far from Stella, swung Testament, her twin swords.
" In the name of the sun, I call upon the power of light!"
A bright aura appeared around her, and the light formed a barrier in front of them. Hanuman's attack hit the barrier, creating an explosion that shook the ground.
Esdeath, who was standing beside Edelweiss raised her hand, and instantly, the ice began to form hundreds of ice spears. Hundreds of ice spears shot towards Hanuman, who quickly dodged and jumped to the side.
"Too slow an attack!" Hanuman challenged, and with incredible speed, he launched a counterattack.
On the other side of the island, Athena and Lakshmana continued to fight. Athena summoned a giant stone serpent to aid in the battle.
"Ancient serpent, arise and destroy my enemy!" With a thunderous sound, many stone serpents emerged from the earth before attacking Lakshmana.Lakshmana did not remain silent. He swung his sword and cut the attacking snake, but in a few moments the snake rose again from the dead. Snakes are symbols of the cycle of life and death, they will continue to rise no matter how they are killed.
The battle between Athena and Lakshmana echoed throughout the island, mingling with the roar of the waves crashing against the shore. On one side, Athena, the trinity goddess who rules over the sky, the Earth, and the underworld, stood proudly, wearing the white Chiton of ancient Greece, with a scythe of death in her hand. On the other side, Lakshmana, the hero of the Puranic epic and the shadow of the strongest Steel, showed calmness in every movement, weapon in hand ready to face whatever came.
Athena, realizing that the attack of the giant stone snake was not enough to defeat Lakshmana, decided to change strategy. She raised her scythe high, and in an instant, divine energy gathered at its tip. With one powerful swing, she released a deadly wave of energy that shot towards Lakshmana. The attack shook the ground around him, leaving a trail of destruction.
Lakshmana, always on guard, dodged swiftly. He spun around and swung his sword, creating a shield of energy that protected him from the deadly blow. However, as he moved, Athena launched her next attack. Her scythe gleamed with dark light as she swung it at Lakshmana, attempting to cut him in half. Lakshmana quickly parried the attack, sword clashing with scythe with a resounding crack.
The force of the clash sent shockwaves through their bodies. Lakshmana felt the vibrations in his bones, but he did not hesitate. He continued his counterattack, swinging his sword with incredible precision. Athena, though surprised, remained calm. She leaped back, avoiding his sharp slash, and summoned the stone serpents to attack again.
The serpents, despite having been cut down before, continued to rise. They surrounded Lakshmana, attempting to block his advance. However, Lakshmana was undeterred. With power and grace, he swung his sword, cutting through the serpents that tried to trap him. The ground around them was littered with shattered stone and snakes, but new ones soon appeared, seemingly unstoppable.
Athena, seeing her attempt fail, strengthened her attack. She summoned a bow and arrow imbued with the authority of death, the power of death on the bow was even capable of killing the immortal god of steel on the battlefield.
The arrow filled with the power of death shot out quickly and hit Lakshmana's shoulder.
Lakshmana who was injured by Athena's attack, immediately got up, ignoring the pain he might have felt. As a god of steel who possessed the authority of steel protection and immortality, his wounds healed slowly. He readied his sword, pointing the tip towards Athena, ready to launch a more ferocious attack.
"Aegis of the Gorgon, protect this goddess of death!" Athena summoned the Aegis shield to block Lakshmana's attack. Lakshmana's attack was like a small stone thrown into the sea, only causing a small splash before disappearing.
Lakshmana immediately retreated when he saw his attack was blocked. Seeing Lakshmana retreat, Athena immediately shot an arrow imbued with the authority of death.
However, with his experience and sharp instincts, Lakshmana jumped to the side, avoiding Athena's arrow that shot out at a terrifying speed. He watched Athena closely, looking for a gap in her defense. Despite his injuries, his fighting spirit remained strong. With a swift movement, Lakshmana struck again, swinging his sword with divine power, trying to break Athena's defenses.
Athena, sensing the approaching energy vibrations, summoned an owl to inform her. The owl flew low, observing Lakshmana's movements and signaling Athena. With a quick decision, Athena summoned the cut stone snakes, directing them to attack from all sides. The snakes, though destroyed many times, continued to rise and attack, adding to the pressure on Lakshmana.
Lakshmana turned his attention to the snakes, trying to cut them down one by one, but Athena gave him no chance. In an instant, she shot forward, her scythe gleaming in the darkness, ready to strike. With incredible speed, Athena attacked from an unexpected angle, trying to catch Lakshmana by surprise.
But Lakshmana had learned from Athena's every move. he quickly spun around and parried the scythe with his sword, creating sparks of light as the two weapons collided. The force of the clash sent dust flying into the air, and thunder echoed around them. Lakshmana felt the pressure from Athena's scythe, but he did not give in. He launched a counterattack, swinging his sword with deadly precision.
Athena, though cornered, did not lose her composure. She leaped back, and held the Aegis shield in front of her. Lakshmana's attack hit the shield hard, sending shockwaves that made the ground tremble. Athena used the moment to gather energy, preparing a new attack.
"With Athena's power, I destroy life, my arrow is the most beautiful end."
Athena drew her bow once more, an arrow glowing with a dark aura ready to be released. She took careful aim, waiting for the right moment. Lakshmana, sensing the threat, prepared to jump, but Athena was faster. She released her arrow, which shot like lightning, piercing the air with a thunderous sound.
The arrow struck Lakshmana, but this time he could not fully dodge it. Although he tried to block the blow, the arrow still hit his right arm, piercing his skin and leaving a scar that gleamed with death energy. Lakshmana felt a sharp pain, but he quickly gathered his strength and healed the wound. However, each attack from Athena weakened his endurance even more.
Athena saw her opportunity and immediately launched a follow-up attack. She raised her scythe high, summoning the power of darkness that swirled around her.
"By the power of darkness, I destroy you, Lakshmana!" She swung her scythe with full force, releasing a wave of dark energy that hurtled towards Lakshmana.
Lakshmana sensed the threat approaching and ran to the side, but the wave was faster. Although he tried to dodge, the wave slammed into his body, pushing him to the ground. Lakshmana fell, feeling the weight of the power of darkness and death pressing down on him. Even so, he would not give up. With strong determination, he got back up, using all the energy he had left to fight Athena's attack.
"For honor and courage, I will fight to the end!" Lakshmana shouted, raising his sword. He gathered all his remaining divine power, preparing to launch a final attack.
"This is the end of your journey!" Athena stepped forward gracefully, her scythe emitting a terrifying dark light.
With a single step, Athena shot forward, her scythe glowing with the power of death. Lakshmana, despite his injuries, swung his sword vigorously. The two weapons collided in a blinding explosion of light, creating a wave of energy that shook the island.
However, Athena's power was greater. She aimed her scythe at Lakshmana's heart, and in one swift movement, she stabbed it into his body. Lakshmana felt unbearable pain as darkness and death coursed through his body. Athena withdrew her scythe, and Lakshmana fell to the ground, breathing his last breath.
In the distance, the sounds of Stella and the others' battle still echoed.
