Chapter 567 - VS Ares part 3 (2/2)

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.
