1527 Lair Part 2 (2/2)

The frost dragon held both of its spears and thrust at the Heretic God's ear. The sharp dragon spear stabbed into the Heretic God's ear, resulting in three gashes.

The Heretic God roared in anger and sorrow, yet it was unable to harm the three beings before it. It had a powerful divine persona, but it was unable to bring its strongest powers to bear in a region like that, as the power of rules had been drastically weakened.

That area was considered a restricted area to the gods.

The means with which it laid to counter the goddess' machinations had become something that prevented it from doing anything instead.

Guffen was strong enough. When the Heretic God, which only had a head remaining, turned around, it thrust the other spear into the Heretic God's other ear. The Heretic God howled from the intense pain, shaking the ground nearby. The dirt trembled and the power of earth element was messed up, creating a small elemental whirlpool.

The elemental whirlpool lasted less than a second before dissipating. That was a miracle given that the place was at the edge of the chaotic void.

The frost dragon, however, paid no heed to miracles. Saleen told it to kill that disgusting head, and it would see to it thoroughly. It unleashed dragon breath at the head of the Heretic God, freezing it. Guffen brought his strongest power to bear, and the head of the Heretic God was already breaking up in terms of elemental structure.

The Heretic God knew that it was facing the greatest crisis it had ever faced. The only thing it was able to fall back onto was the fact that he had a level 18 divine persona, which meant that it was able to use some level 18 rules.

However, the place they were in—the edge of the chaotic void—meant that success would depend on luck.

If Saleen was in its shoes, he would have thought differently. The Heretic God was already left with just a head by then, meaning that its luck had apparently hit rock bottom. Betting on luck under such a situation was tantamount to suicide.

”You've forced my hand!” The Heretic God's skull began to shatter while it was in a frozen state, but it was still able to use its power of the Source. What it did was utterly stupid from Saleen's perspective, as he deemed it was just wasting its power of the Source to vent its frustration on him.

”Your soul shall suffer eternal fall in my divine kingdom, your skulls shall become my wine glass, your flesh shall be the main dish for my feast...”

The Heretic God's voice sounded like thunder, but Saleen retorted instead, ”Enough. Curses this long are utterly stupid!”

Saleen used Thundering Sound, cutting the Heretic God's curse off. However, the Heretic God was just as formidable. Despite being cut off, it was still able to surprisingly continue the curse, linking the next lines with those said previously.

There was no way Saleen would let a level 18 god finish its curse. While he had no fear of such curses himself, he was unable to say the same for both Rafel and Guffen. Saleen imitated the Heretic God's tone and chanted the curse as well, using his Thundering Sound.

”Your soul shall suffer eternal fall in your own divine kingdom, your skull shall become my toy, your flesh shall make my lands fertile...”

Due to the rhythm of both chants being exactly the same, the Heretic God was no longer able to continue chanting its curse. Even if it did, every line would have been chopped off. Doing so would have meant that the curse would not have been successful, even if it were to chant until its skull completely disintegrated.

The Heretic God howled in frustration. It truly behaved like a real monkey that time.

The frost dragon saw that the frozen enemy was still behaving in a wicked manner and thought that it was rather embarrassing. It then saw how Saleen managed to stop a level 18 god from cursing, which was new. It seemed that it had signed a contract with someone worth its while. It had been the most powerful of water type dragons, but there were definitely beings more powerful than it was back on the dragon plane.

Saleen the mage apparently possessed lightning powers, and he looked astonishing. It seemed that he was definitely someone rather powerful back in the main plane, which meant that Guffen had nothing to lose signing a contract with him.

That thought lightened Guffen's mood considerably. It brought about Dragon Language magic to bear. The frozen head burst in an instant, reduced to frozen dust.

Saleen was baffled. While his Water Flame would have been able to do the same, it would not have achieved such an effect so quickly and so furiously.

”Mage, hurry up and take its divine persona!” Guffen unleashed another dragon breath, preventing the shattered skull from bringing about new changes. A pitch black divine persona flew out. Lightning coiled around Saleen's hand as he reached out and forcefully grabbed onto the divine persona. He sensed that the Heretic God still lived, hiding its source in the divine persona, making it hard to find and kill.

Saleen threw the divine persona in the Ring of Cosmos, which was filled with Aqua Fulgur, just to let the boundless liquid suppress the divine persona. While a divine persona was indeed mighty, there was no way it could easily handle being exposed to raging lightning power at such magnitude. The Heretic God was completely suppressed by Saleen. It would have only been able to resurrect if Saleen were to show mercy.

The fight was brief yet exhilarating. If they had not sacrificed the Star Shuttle and robbed the Heretic God of its ability to move around, there still would have been no telling which side would have come out on top. Rafel was unable to even interfere with such battles.

Guffen felt a heartache as it looked at its short spears. Both spears managed to harm the Heretic God, yet both were corroded by the Heretic God's powers. The tips of the spears were practically mush.

Saleen chuckled and unleashed Water Flame and Electric Snakes, purifying Guffen's spears and saying, ”The Heretic God definitely had a reason for picking such a place as a base. How about we search and see if there are any secrets hiding. Meanwhile, we can clear a place up to lay down a teleportation portal, then we could all return to the main plane.”
