Against The Gods With An Anime System - Chapter 130

Up there, in the skies above the Wasteland of Death, twenty elders of the Burning Heaven Clan were desperately trying to kill one guy, Mesa Uchiha. Mesa Uchiha on the other hand, wasn’t even trying to dodge their attacks. Using his Kamui ability, he let all of their attacks phase through him harmlessly, while he himself was laughing and trolling them at their futile attempts, thus further angering them.

After a while, he got bored of it all. So using a burst of speed, that none of the twenty elders could follow, he appeared about half a mile away from them and called out to them in a loud voice: “To all of you idiots! I have grown tired of our little game here! If you want to settle this? Come to the center of the Wasteland of Death, where the two Flood Dragons used to be! It is there where we shall finish this!”

Once he said what he wanted, he disappeared from there. Having used the Flying Raijin Jutsu to teleport to the cave where the Azure Dragon God Trial used to be, he found Jasmine, Ophis and his clone sitting in front of the cave, gathered around a table, playing poker. And from the looks of it, Ophis was winning, seeing as how she had a mountain of ch.i.p.s before her, while Jasmine and the clone Mesa had just a few stacks.

“Heey guys! I am here!” Called out Mesa to them.

“Finally! Sure took your sweet ass time! Come! Take over from me and finish this game!” Said the Mesa clone at the table, right before he dispersed into a cloud of smoke.

Standing there for a moment, all of the clone’s experience flooded into Mesa and moments later he had big grin on his face: “…… That’s quite the trap you guys set up. I am impressed.”

Sitting down at the table with them, he picks up the clone Mesa’s cards and joins the game. Looking at Ophis, he declares with great vigor: “Prepare yourself Ophis! For I shall defeat you! Mark my words!”

And all he got in response, was her looking at him and scoffing at him and his declaration with a genuine ‘Aqua smirk’.

‘Yeah… I think I have let her watch too many episodes of Konosuba. Now she’s doing the ‘Aqua smirk’ But on the other hand, she is getting more expressive.’ Thought Mesa as he focused on his cards and defeating Ophis.

A while later

There in the distance, black dots started appearing the sky and there were getting closer by the second. Once they got closer, it became visible that these figures were the twenty Burning Heaven Clan Elders that were chasing Mesa earlier. As they got closer and closer to the cave, they saw that Mesa was sitting in front of the cave at a table with two other girls playing a card game.

“That little maggot! How dare he look down on us like that! I will make sure to torture him till he begs for death!” Roared Fen Jueran and blasted towards him.

“Great Elder! What do we do with those two that are with him?” Asked one of the elders.

Pondering the matter for a while, Great Elder Fen Jueran gave his answer: “Kill them. We cannot have any witnesses. It is unfortunate. But they only have their own luck to curse that they are in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

And so, the twenty elders had soon enough surrounded Mesa, Jasmine and Ophis, who themselves didn’t pay any attention to the group of elders. A furious roar came from the sky: “Mesa Uchiha! Let’s see just where you can run of to this time!!”

And with that, Fen Jueran sent out an enormous fire dragon of more than one and half meter thick that descended from the sky and landed on top of Mesa’s and the girls, while they still didn’t pay any attention to them. In an instant, over a hundred meters of the surrounding land was blown flat, and purple colored flames burned in a few places here and there. But Mesa and girls were completely fine. Everything in a 5-meter radius around Mesa and the girls was completely fine, whilst they themselves were preoccupied with their card game and ignoring the elders.

Looking up from his cards, Mesa looks around himself and at Jasmine and Ophis and asks: “Is it just me, or did it suddenly get a bit toasty here?”

Looking up from their cards themselves, they look around inquisitively, before dismissingly answering Mesa and to continue their poker game: “Meh, it’s probably nothing.”

Meanwhile, the elders were stunned. Great Elder Fen Jueran had launched an incredibly powerful Profound fire attack that was supposed to kill Mesa and those two girls with him. Or at the very least, it was supposed to cause horrific burns to them. But instead, they were completely fine and everything within a 5-meter radius around them was completely fine. And to add insult to injury, they dismissed Great Elder Fen Jueran’s attack as if it was nothing but a mild temperature increase.

Feeling his blood boiling with fury, Fen Jueran concentrates a massive amount of fire into the palm of his hand and launches himself at Mesa for a palm strike. Once upon them, he strikes with everything he has, only to collide with a barrier that protected Mesa and the girls.

Following his lead, the rest of the elders join in on the attack, launching massive fireblasts against the barrier, in hopes of breaking it. Launching many pythons, spears and walls made of purple flames, the Burning Heaven Clan Elders were exasperated to find that not only were there attack not working, Mesa and the girls were ignoring them.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

“All in. Who’s with me?” Said Mesa and pushes the rest of his remaining ch.i.p.s to the center of the table.

“Bring it on.” Declares Jasmine confidently and pushes the rest of her ch.i.p.s to the center of the table as well.

And with that, all eyes land on Ophis, who casually matches their bets with a few ch.i.p.s of her mountain of ch.i.p.s.

“Alright. Show your hands!” Calls out Mesa and confidently turns his cards around: “Four of a kind! Four Aces!”

“Hmmph!” Scoffs Jasmine and she lays out her cards: “Five of hearts to nine of hearts! Straight flush! I win.”

And with that, she goes for the pile, only to be stopped by Ophis. And with a very unusual smug grin on her face, she shows her hand, shocking Mesa and Jasmine: “Royal Flush!”

And just like that, Ophis won the game and took the rest of Mesa and Jasmine’s ch.i.p.s for herself. And to hammer home her victory, she scoffs at Mesa and Jasmine with a genuine ‘Aqua smirk’ and says: “Losers. I win.”

Banging their heads against the table in frustration, Jasmine wondered why they kept challenging Ophis in all these games, if they were destined to lose against her every single time. And Mesa gave them the answer that truly summed up why they persisted: “Because we are idiots who don’t know when to stop fighting a losing battle. I honestly don’t see us stop doing this any time soon.”

“…… Yeah, me neither.” Said Jasmine in resignation and looked over to the group of Burning Heaven Clan Elders that were still busy trying to break through the barrier without success: “So, are you gonna deal with them now?”

Looking over towards as well, Mesa was just tired of dealing with them after having lost again against Ophis, but he knew that they wouldn’t go away any time soon: “Yeah, I guess so.”

Standing up, he snapped his fingers, removing the sound isolation barrier that isolated all the noise from the outside. And once he did, he immediately heard Fen Jueran yell at him.

——————————————————————————————————————————————

Gnashing his teeth in sheer fury, Fen Jueran was livid at Mesa and the girls ignoring him and the elders that were with him. First he mocked them when he let their attacks pass through him harmlessly, then he told them to come here so they could finish this once and for all, only to be ignored so he could play a game with two other girls, who also were ignoring him and the other elders and dismissing everything they were doing. It was only after a while that Mesa Uchiha finally stood up and confronted them. But from the way he looked like standing up, it was apparent that he thought of it as nothing but a vexing task, mocking them even further.

In all his years of being second in line to take over the position of Great Elder after Great Elder Fen Moli, he had always been treated with respect, awe and reverence. Even those of the other Major Sects and the Imperial Family had the common courtesy to treat him and the Burning Heaven Clan with respect. But here is a kid, at least three times younger them him, who not only doesn’t give him and the Burning Heaven Clan the respect they deserve. He shows them nothing but contempt and ridicule. And now, he never thought he could be this angry.

“You filthy maggot! How dare you mock continue to mock us like this! Today, I’ll guarantee you a torturously, painful death and have your corpse in pieces!” Roared Fen Jueran to Mesa. Mesa and the girls were very unimpressed. Jasmine was resting her chin on her hands and looking at Fen Jeuran with disinterest. Ophis wasn’t even looking at him, she was solely focused on munching on her cookies. And Mesa himself was also very unimpressed, picking his ear and flicking away the ear booger, while Fen Jueran was screaming at him.

After Fen Jueran was done screaming at him, did Mesa finally respond to him: “Are you done now?”

Before he even let Fen Jueran respond, he put his fingers in his mouth and whistled very loudly. Immediately after, the ground start shaking, soon followed by two incredibly powerful Profound Energy signatures appearing out of nowhere. These Profound Energy signatures were at the beginning stages of the Tyrant Profound Realm, far greater than anyone had every had in the Blue Wind Empire. Feeling these two powerful energy signatures closing in on them, Fen Jueran and the other elders’ hatred and anger towards Mesa, was immediately replaced by fear at the mysterious Profound Energy signatures closing in.

And it didn’t take long before they all saw the source of those two Profound Energy signatures. There, coming out of the cave, were two enormous golden dragons. With both of them at the beginning stages of the Tyrant Profound Realm. And to make matters even worse, they immediately came to Mesa’s sides and laid down next to him.

“”MASTER! How can we help you!””

‘MASTER?! He subjugated two Tyrant Profound Realm beasts?!’ Was the immediate thought that ran through the minds of Fen Jueran and the other elders.

“Ah Ran and Shaw. It’s so good to see you two again. I brought you lunch.” Said Mesa as he pointed at the Burning Heaven Clan elders and continued: “These people just tried to kill me. So have at them!”

“RUN!!!! HE SET US UP!” Yelled Fen Jueran in desperate fear and immediately took to the skies to fly away at top speed, as did all the other elders, with the two golden dragons hot on their tails.

As they all flew away at top speed, against all odds, they managed to stay ahead of the two golden dragons. But just as they thought they were in the clear, they suddenly and heavily, collided against a barrier, trapping all of them inside it like rats. Using their most powerful attacks in a desperate attempt to break through the barrier, they were horrified when to see that all their attempts had no effect whatsoever against the barrier.

Coming up from behind were the two golden dragon. And from the looks of it, they had known about the barrier: “Hahahaha…!! Foolish humans! Our great master had set up this barrier long before you foolish humans came here! And now! All of you are to become our food!”

And like that, a slaughter was taking place. Ran and Shaw, the two golden Tyrant Profound Realm dragons, were greatly enjoying watching and hearing the elders scream and beg for their lives and desperately trying to stay ahead of them and trying break through the barrier in vain as they were hunting them like caged animals.

———————————————————————————————————————————–

Meanwhile

Mesa, Jasmine and Ophis were enjoying a relaxing cup of tea. Mesa had already redeployed the sound isolation barrier, ensuring that they wouldn’t hear the desperate screams and pleadings of the elders around them. Taking a nice long sip, Mesa commented with: “Ah, this is nice. Don’t you agree with me?”

And Jasmine and Ophis both nodded agreeing with him.

—————————————————————————————————————————————-

“PLEASE! SPARE ME! I DON’T WANNA DIE!” Desperately pleaded one of the Burning Heaven Clan Elders that was caught in Shaw’s claws. But ignoring his pleas, he bit off his top half and proceeded to devour him whole. After a few hours of playing with their food, Ran and Shaw had devoured all of the Burning Heaven Clan Elders and came back to Mesa’s side. And like he had told them to, they had saved all of the storage rings from the Burning Heaven Clan Elders. And with all of the rare pellets, medicines and other treasures that recorded the Burning Heaven Clan’s profound art, he sold them to JARVIS for a nice 150,000 system credits. And with that nuisance out of the way, Mesa gave Ran and Shaw a tiny amount of draconic power from Ddraig and Albion and then continued on his way towards the Frozen Cloud Asgard.
