Chapter 296 - Poseidon (8) (2/2)

Or, ht of his brother as a “friend” Then those words he was saying right noere atonement for back then

‘It doesn’t ain There wasn’tto see the end of this so—

Creutz paused while chasing after Triton on the Flying Dragons and looked back at the sudden sound

‘What is that?’

His eyes widened

Far away, coluainst each other as they soared up into the sky He could feel the heat all the way here

Kang—

Pung!

The colu The water evaporated into steam, and only bare land was revealed

It was already after the castle and cliffs of Triton had crashed into the oceans

Only the blue energy from above showed that this was Poseidon’s holy territory Yeon-woo and Benteke’s fight beloas brutal

It was a continuation of the battle at the River of Souls Injuries appeared and disappeared on their bodies over and over again There were burn scars faintly left behind

But just like in their previous battle, neither of the—

The longer the fight went on, the faster Benteke’s spiritual body synchronization progressed It was because as he released the holy power he had been holding in, it expanded faster

Benteke didn’t look huht with holy power

There was a new arm where his arm had been cut off, and even when he was injured critically, he recovered quickly and attacked

Benteke actually had the upper hand in ter behind on the firepower

However

Kashi+ng—

“Thirteen”

Vigrid diligently slid across Benteke’s neck

Norular vein being cut, but the synchronized body quickly healed

Still, this was enough to shock Benteke

While Benteke was forced back, Yeon-woo quickly closed the distance between them and attacked him repetitively Black Aura shot out from him

“Fourteen, fifteen…”

Every time he counted, deep injuries appeared on Benteke’s vital points and were healed again

If Benteke’s body was a real one, the nu would’veAnd powerful The vortex that he shot out with his spear was so destructive that you would probably be shredded if you came close to it

Yeon-woo also looked like he would be swept away, but he continued to avoid the vortexes and created a huge hole in Benteke’s body

He had begun to see and understand s

However, the problem was…

‘It’s not…the same as before’

It was the fact that Benteke’s condition wasn’t the greatest What did it ? Hisaround his spear like he was releasing a beast, but it fell short of what he could do before

Especially his fighting spirit and tenacity

The fighting spirit that used to grip the battlefield couldn’t be felt anyht it was a sha!

Benteke’s speed had increased, but it seeh it with Draconic Eyes

It was plain to see

The spear separated again to create six vortexes The sharply spun water came at him from all directions in inds

〈Six Combat〉 It was a skill earned by martial artists who had reached the pinnacle of spearmanshi+p

Swoosh—

Yeon-rapped his wings of fire around hi the flaws and cut the inds As fire and water collided, explosions rang out

Then

Swek—

The tip of Vigrid landed in Benteke’s chest, piercing through a heavy fog

Puk!

Benteke laughed A laugh of disbelief escaped his h his heart

He was flabbergasted seeing his body trying to recover even after his heart was pierced His body was no longer his

But now, even this kind of healing didn’t see froeneration speed

〈Residual Poison Blood〉 A heavy, toxic air was spreading in the atmosphere

“Kehaha!”

At first, when Poseidon said he could never win, he wanted to prove hi, but he felt like he knehy he had said that

He had almost died nineteen times

Even if he was in his normal body, there was almost no chance he could’ve won

However, he didn’t feel wronged It was natural for the weak to be sed by the strong Like he had sed Lana, he was going to be sed by a new strong opponent

Still, there was one thing he had that others didn’t have

‘I didn’t lose’

So for hi that was a shaht properly because of this damned…God…’

Benteke’s ht His spiritual body instantly turned black It was a sign that the Residual Poison Blood had begun to take effect

Yeon-woo gripped Vigrid again to end the fight

Just when he was about to take Benteke’s head, the air suddenly changed

The air that had been filled with fighting spirit and heat cooled down A cold wind that felt like it was going to freeze Yeon-woo’s skin spread around him It was hard to breathe, like he was underwater

Benteke’s eyes turned into a clear blue

Descent

The original owner of the body disappeared, and Poseidon, as connected through channeling, sed Benteke’s soul, and he was even trying to take over his body now The body was now coredient for the descent was added on

Martyrdo and the others who died for Poseidon had become a kind of a sacrifice and pushed his descent forward

As long as he could achieve his end goal, he didn’t care about using the deaths of his followers

He thought that the life of a mere mortal could be sacrificed anytime for a God’s will

『We Finally Meet』

Although he hadn’t completed his descent yet, the environment shook with just his presence It was a heavy holy power, equivalent to when Agares had been trying to manifest

However

“Yeah Nice to hed with a relaxed attitude even in front of such a fierce holy power

『What Are You……!』

Poseidon was about to finish his descent when Yeon-woo suddenly opened his left palrid was, in his heart

“S”

Clack, clack—
