Typhon, the All-Destroying creature!

In the dark void, as Shiva stood holding his newly acquired weapon, fiery embers began to illuminate the darkness, revealing the chained creature that was supposed to be his final opponent.

{....What the hell is that thing?}

The Old Sword exclaimed, its voice almost sounding frightened as it gazed upon the being looming over them.

"Have you heard about the All-Destroying creature who was once called the father of all monsters?" Shiva asked, an excited smile playing on his lips, despite the enormous danger looming over him.

{Father of all monsters...?}

The Old Sword, of course, didn't know what Shiva was talking about, but it was very curious to find out.

"That is Typhon, the bane of gods, the one who fought against the all-father of Olympus, Zeus himself!" Shiva's words resonated in the dark void, and the creature became completely visible to them.

Enormous chains, each link radiating with runes and a power aura, held back a massive, mythical beast with multiple serpentine dragon-like necks and heads emanating from its muscular torso. Its body seemed to be composed of rippling muscles and fiery red scales, glistening with an otherworldly sheen. The multiple necks twisted and coiled, with gaping maws filled with razor-sharp teeth and tongues of flame lashing out, casting an eerie glow across the void.

The creature had a fiery gaze, its innumerable eyes staring at Shiva with anger and hate, inflicting fear into the very depths of his soul. Even with Shiva's title of <Oddity > which provided resistance against fear, Shiva couldn't help but sweat as he stood against the massive creature.

Its form was terrifying and seemed to radiate an aura of destructive power and primal fury against all those who stood against it. In size, it was a bit bigger than the corruption giant, but anyone could tell that the creature was far stronger, its presence exuding an overwhelming sense of dread and potential annihilation.

An earth-shattering roar ripped through the air, a thunderous bellow that seemed to make the very ground quake beneath their feet. The deafening sound reverberated deep into the bones, like the rageful cry of an angry god. The chains holding the beast rattled violently, threatening to tear apart, still somehow holding onto the legs and hands of the beast with an unearthly tenacity.

{Hoy! Hoy! You are thinking of fighting against that?}

The Old Sword exclaimed, taken aback by Shiva's action of standing firm against the multi-headed beast without taking a single step back.

"Fighting? I am thinking of killing it. Be ready to taste the blood of a primordial monster!" Without further words, Shiva darted forward, his posture bent forward to increase his speed, his determination unwavering in the face of the terrifying foe.

"Aghora! Crush that bastard. You guys, aim at the heads." He commanded the corruption giant and his summons while he continued to stride forward. The corruption giant, who received its command, ran ahead, its usual excited expression replaced by one of fright and fear. But an undead was firm to its master's command, so even despite its fears, it ran forward towards the terrifying monster, hoping against hope that it would emerge victorious.

{Please tell me you have some kind of plan to take on that beast!}

The Old Sword spoke hesitantly, seeing Shiva recklessly charging at the beast.

"Don't you see it? That bastard is already bound by the chains; he can't even escape from those. All I need to do is chip away at its life, a bit at a time!" Shiva said, though what he said didn't seem like it would go that well, given the sheer power and ferocity of their opponent.

As Shiva and the corruption giant got closer to the creature, the flames covering Typhon started to burn brighter, the heat becoming so intense that Shiva's skin began to sear and burn.

"You fiery bastard!"

Shiva screamed out aloud, brandishing his sword and preparing to use the death demon combat techniques, sword style!

By then the corrption giant had approached Typhon, bringing down its massive arms onto the creature's torso with a force that should have crushed anything in its path. However, instead of inflicting damage, the corruption giant's hands began to melt upon contact with Typhon's fiery scales. The giant recoiled in shock and agony, witnessing its own flesh dissolve before its eyes.

The Typhon, undeterred by the corruption giant's retreat, seized the opportunity to strike back. Its multiple serpent-like heads lunged forward, their razor-sharp fangs sinking deep into the corrupted flesh of the giant. Lava spewed from their mouths, further melting the giant's already damaged skin. 

A chorus of agonized roars filled the air as the corruption giant writhed in excruciating pain.

Shiva, seeing the dire situation, quickened his pace, closing in on Typhon with his sword poised for a decisive strike. Despite the intense heat radiating from the creature, Shiva remained focused, his determination unwavering. With a swift and calculated motion, he aimed his sword directly at Typhon's nearest head, aiming to sever it from its body in one fell swoop.
