Bottom A, Top O - Chapter 136

“It doesn’t matter if you believe my words or not. I am telling you the truth and now that I did. It’s time for you to retreat,” Narukami said. He had little hope that his words were enough to make Armageddon retreat.

Although he had advanced. That only increased his survival chance, not winning.

“What if I don’t want to? What are you going to do?” Armageddon asked in ridicule as He looked down on Narukami.

The latter, who was kings of all kings and rulers of all rulers in all of his past lives, hated the look Armageddon gave him.

The arrogance embedded in his bone seemed to wake up as he could not withstand that look.

Narukami gave Armageddon a sharp look of fury. Armageddon shivered for a few brief seconds. Narukami was not like a human, but instead a deity like Him.

No, more powerful and destructive than Him. Armageddon could also see corpses stacked like mountains and a sea of blood in Narukami.

“?!”

This human… Who is he?! Armageddon said inwardly with wariness and shock.

“Hei, God of Destruction. God of Chaos. Can you repeat what you said earlier?” Narukami asked as his voice was deep and cold.

Armageddon felt chills he never felt before. No, it wasn’t that He never felt it, He just forgot about it. He was a deity that stood at the peak of many beings, only a few deities with fingers could count that could strike fear in Him.

But this time, it was from a human. It was humiliating.

Armageddon hastily regained his calm as He looked down at Narukami. He was interested in what Narukami might do to Him.

“Are you deaf? Do you think you are allowed to order me around? Die, brat!” Armageddon extended his right arm as it aimed at Narukami.

The latter did not say anything in return.

Is he so afraid that he can’t utter a word? Armageddon thought to himself but the next scene made him think otherwise.

Narukami’s aura rapidly improved and beyond what an ordinary Level 9 had. It even matched Level 10 Sorcerers! Similar to the Blessed of the Gods.

His aura stopped increasing. It was no different than Hikari’s.

“As expected of her descendant. She also has this ability and it’s a headache facing her. Now let’s see how long are you going to last!” Armageddon’s right arm exude a dark light and shot out at Narukami.

This dark light erased anything in its way. The air tightened as it got closer to him.

Narukami raised his hand as he opened his palm.

“Hand Gesture: Scatter.” Lightning then condensed before his palm before shooting out at the dark light.

It clashed and caused a loud and powerful explosion. Shockwaves spread and everything in its way fluttered wildly. The trees tried their best to not get uprooted, animals lowered their bodies as they did their best to not get blown away and a nearby lake formed wild and vicious waves as it crashed into the land.

This lake was different from the dried ones.

Contrary to the chaos, the figures who were the cause remain in place as they cover themselves in protective shields of spiritual energy.

Not waiting for the explosion to calm down, Narukami went past through it without any trouble and arrived at Armageddon’s side

Arrows of lightning were shot out at Him. Armageddon easily dodged them but different cases of Narukami’s attacks.

Sending consecutive attacks with a pitch dark dagger with no rest, Narukami gained the upper hand.

Armageddon was troubled as He did not expect Narukami’s attack speed and power to increase greatly.

They were fast and lethal, each blow enough to cause Him tremendous damage!

He should’ve expected this but now it was too late for regret. Avoiding Narukami’s attacks with three to five slashes, Armageddon found a chance to knock back Narukami and made a distance between them, five hundred meters to be precise.

“Not bad but this is weaker than her attacks.” Armageddon shook His head.

Chuckled, Narukami spoke as he mocked, “then why do I see injuries? Are you old enough to feel numb, old man?”

Armageddon’s slashes were cut deep but it quickly closed on its own. The dagger had the incredible effect of trapping a soul by a single slash and torturing it but that was futile against a deity.

For the latter, it was no different than any normal blade, though twenty times sharper and had great ability. Basically, a treasure.

“What an interesting toy. Give it to me!” Armageddon yelled as He rushed towards Narukami.

“Come and get it,” Narukami said as he prepared for the upcoming attack. He poured his spiritual energy into his eyes, so as to perceive the other party’s movement.

He dare not hold back.

In a flash, Armageddon was already on his side. Narukami did not see his movements at all.

In his viewpoint, Armageddon ‘teleported’ to his side.

Thankfully, he was prepared and so, he tilted his body to the back as Armageddon sent a punch aimed at his chest.

It cut through the air as it let out a whistle.

Swoosh!

So close! Narukami’s eyes narrowed in danger but he couldn’t heave a sigh of relief yet as the next attack welcomed him after he dodged.

It was a kick coming from behind. Armageddon went to his back and landed a kick or that should have happened but Narukami dodged it at the last moment by shooting out a high output of lightning fr his legs, causing him to shoot to the air like a spring.

The ground cracked as it formed a deep crater and once in a while, lightning flickered.

Armageddon got hit by what Narukami had done. His body jolted backward for a few meters as it formed a trail of dust before stopping.

Narukami was not kind enough to give the old man rest and so, he formed many magic circles around Armageddon and they shot out different kinds of projectiles.

Missiles, arrows, cannonballs, bullets, swords, spears, rockets, and many others. They were in purple lightning, not physical materials.

Boom!

All projectiles were condensed in one spot. The result was obvious. A massive explosion with lightning snakes flashed. The sound was deafening like roaring thunder. The ground shook as though there was an earthquake. The air reverberated.

The explosion formed a mushroom cloud as it soared to the sky. One could see for thousands of kilometers away. It was a terrifying sight.

The suspect who caused this watched with emotionless eyes as he was in the air.

Narukami was confident Armageddon had His tricks to survive that. There was no way a deity was defeated that quickly and so he waited.

In the process, Haru, Yeanne, and Hikari met with each other and watched the spectacular dark mushroom cloud.

“Is this his doing?” Haru blurted out as he was in disbelief.

Hikari nodded as she said with full of praise, “He is more powerful than one imagined.”

Haru nodded as he agreed. If this was earlier, Haru might doubt her words but now, with what was in front of him, there was no way he could underestimate the mysterious person’s capability anymore!

“Just who is he? What is his relationship with your Lady, Hikari-san?” Yeanne could not help but ask. This question had been in her mind after what Narukami said as he spoke Amaterasu’s name.

“I cannot tell you all much. But I can give the two of you a clue, that person is a precious person to my Lady,” Hikari said rather ambiguous

“Precious person?” The both of them recited in wonder.

“At any rate, Armageddon’s vessel must be eliminated. We should divert our attention to Him first. What do you think, Hikari-san?” Yeanne said as she suggested.

Haru snapped from his daze and accepted her suggestion. The same goes for Hikari as she nodded.

“We should scan the area to see if Armageddon is still alive,” recommended Hikari.

“Okay.” Haru then scattered his spiritual energy as he scanned the area to pick up a presence. He mainly scanned the center of the explosion, Yeanne just a few hundred meters away from the center and Hikari outside of it.

They changed tasks every time they did not find anything. Yeanne then scanned the center as Haru took her position but it was fruitless.

After that was Hikari’s turn yet they did not get anything.

Haru frowned upon the finding.

“Hum… I don’t get anything, how about you guys?” Haru pondered.

“Nothing,” Yeanne shook her head and she asked:

“How about you, Hikari-san?”

“The same as you, His presence cannot be detected.”

“Even to you?” Haru was surprised as he pinched his chin, pondering many things about what had happened to Armageddon.

One must know that Hikari was the best among the three of them. If she couldn’t find Armageddon, let alone them.

“How about we meet with the mysterious person and ask for his help?” Haru told them his idea and wanted to know their opinion.

“That’s a good idea, we should go now. Perhaps Armageddon cooked up some plans as we searched Him,” Yeanne agreed and Haru moved his head up and down.

“No need, he has already left,” Hikari abruptly said. Upon hearing that, they were slightly surprised.

“Why? Is it possible that Armageddon’s vessel is dead?” Haru asked doubtfully. No way a god’s vessel was that weak!
