Each swing of Khalos's arms produced different effects. He could produce gales of wind, and torrents of hale from swinging his arms. He could summon pillars of ice, earth, and fire that could freeze, pierce, or burn through Ren. Khalos could even create beams of light and trap Ren in a prison of darkness. Khalos was like a force of nature which was expected of a God.
Ren who was receiving everything that a God had to offer was not cowering in fear nor was he repentant in fighting a God, instead, he was smiling that vicious smile of his. In the midst of the New God's rampaging fist, Ren who was unable to counter was smiling fiercely he was enjoying every moment of this battle.
Each and every attack Khalos made was lethal which made Ren even more excited. On the other hand, Khalos was confused as he had hit Ren with different spells from all angles, and Ren was even bleeding here and there, but instead of looking anxious, he was smiling. Seeing him act like that Just made Khalos angrier.
Khalos's twelve arms merged into one and were glowing with different colors. Khalos then punched forward with such speed that it distorted the space around him. Ren had already seen the attack coming but he knew that if he blocked with Snertal his sword would break in two.
Ren made a quick decision and let go of Snertal. He absorbed Snertal with his shadow and blocked the incoming attack with his own hands. The power of this strike made the ground which was several miles below the two get destroyed from the pressure. Ren had difficulty catching his breath as he was blown away his whole body feeling a myriad of things.
Ren could feel his body burning up and at the same time freezing, he could feel it being paralyzed and at the same time, he was poisoned. While he was flying rapidly towards a mountain Ren quickly tried to cleanse his body of the symptoms he was feeling. As he was doing that, Ren had hit a mountain but that didn't stop his body from flying backward as part of the mountain shattered when Ren's body hit it. Ren then continued to fly a few more miles backward before being buried deep into the ground.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKhalos teleported to the area where Ren's body had crashed into. It was an uninhabited island west of the main continent. Khalos smirked as he saw Ren's body that was full of cuts burn marks, bruises, and other assortments of injuries. Yet even though Ren looked like that he was still smiling as he communicated with Silika through their link.
'Silika I'm going to use the scythe.'
'So he's that strong?'
'Yeah, this is so much fun! Since he has given me a wonderful fight, I want to fight him with the best that I can offer.'
'If the two of you go all out, this world might break.'
'Don't worry about that, like I said before this world seems to have grown stronger. That's one of the reasons why this New God is able to descend here. If it was before the restrictions of this world would've killed him.'
'Alright, then I hope you have a fun fight.'
Silika was no longer a weapon spirit as a few years before Henrietta and Lara had successfully created a body that was similar to what Silika had when she was still the Half-vampire Elizabeth. So right now the two of them shared ownership with the Death Scythe. So if one of them wanted to use the weapon they needed the permission of the other person.
...
Khalos waited for Ren to come out from the hole he was buried into. He wanted to see what the arrogant human looked like at this moment after getting smashed by him. As he waited Khalos felt an incredible pressure coming from the area Ren landed on. He then saw Ren coming out of the hole he created when he crashed onto the island.
Ren was now wearing a black cloak and was holding a Death Scythe. Khalos could feel a divine power being emanated from the Scythe.
'That's a True Death Scythe and based on the divinity I sense from it, this belonged to a rather powerful world deity. How did he get something like that? Did one of those Fakers give him that?... Well, it doesn't really matter if he has a divine weapon or not, I will still beat him.'
Ren looked at Khalos who was flying above his head and laughed.
"Allow me to thank you Khalos, this has been a blast! So to show you my appreciation I will show you everything I have to offer!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe cross-shaped needles of the scythe pierced through Ren's body and started sucking his blood. The black cloak Ren was wearing started to turn red. Ren then changed the position of the scythe and was ready to do an upward slice.
When Khalos saw what Ren was doing for some reason he felt something he has never felt before. He couldn't understand it but he unconsciously backed away, it was at that moment Khalos understood what the unfamiliar feeling was. This was the same feeling he had given thousands of mortals and even some New Gods. He was actually feeling afraid.
The moment Khalos came to that realization he got very angry not only at Ren but at himself. How could a God be afraid of a mortal?! Khalos roared in frustration as he charged downward wanting to vent his anger at Ren. When Ren saw the incoming Khalos he was feeling thrilled, as he thought that the New God was having as much fun as he was.
Ren slashed upward and everything within a hundred miles was sliced in half. The island Ren was standing on, the sea that was in front of him everything within the path of the slash was sliced in half.
Khalos barely evaded the strike and saw that a few of his fingers were cut off. Ren then appeared in front of Khalos, he was about ready to slice Khalos in half. Khalos intercepted Ren's attack by separating his arms into two pairs and holding down Ren's forearms. After blocking Ren's attack Khalos was about to kick Ren away, but Ren had overpowered him and he was pushed back.
Before Khalos was about to get blown away by Ren's attack he was still able to counterattack and was able to hit Ren at his side. He could hear some of Ren's ribs cracking from that strike of his. The two were blasted away in different directions.
Ren who was aching all over, having his skin burned, his body with a few holes here and there, and had numerous bruises was having the time of his life. He laughed as he felt so alive at this moment when death was so close, Ren then got up and charged at Khalos. On the other hand, Khalos had two of his arms sliced off. He wanted to regrow them but to his surprise, he could not do so.
'That Death Scythe isn't just a normal scythe of a world deity! It was actually able to render my regeneration abilities null?!'
