Dead.

Hades and I stared at each other and saw that he was not happy, it seemed that he disliked the fact that he could not deal with the god that had been mocked before easily.

Suddenly, I began to feel as if he had activated his divine energy, in fact, a black mist started emanating from his body, and he touched the ground again, but instead of the skeletons many soldiers exited from Elysium, it just looked as if they had been reinforced by the power of death.

With my swords embedded in the ground, I stepped forward as several ancient Greek words and magic blue circles appeared around my right arm and forearm and began to spin rapidly.

I pointed my hand at the Elysium champions Army and unleashed my magic power into the arms of "Draw..Snap ... Magic blow!"

Another secret, in my few spare times, I tend to create new magic spells to add to my arsenal, for example, this spell releases a barrage of magic shots of enormous destructive power from the palm of my hand, my magic shots have a temperature of around 3000 degrees Celsius.

The army of Elysium started running towards me but I really started shooting magic bullets at them, they didn't have any chance because in front of the barrage of magic bullets, most of them died instantly, after that my firepower focused on Hades, but he made a field of energy around him in order to protect him.

Seeing this, I decided not to waste my magic energy and stopped firing, instead backed off and grabbed my sword from the ground.

I was covered in a magical white light before this light turned into Fafnir's Armor that covered me from foot to mouth to head, and I began to feel that the brutal strength of Fafnir started flowing into my body and interacting with the blood of the dragon inside.

What? Do you think everyone knows how to use their divine energy to change clothes, but I don't know? Thanks to the armor, my physical strength and my physical and magical resistance were doubled.

Hades rushed towards me at a much higher speed than before and apparently strengthened himself with his divine energy, I would have done the same if it weren't for the fact that my divine energy had a weak effect on my physical strength all I could do was infuse my muscles and bones with magical energy.

Again, we entered into an exchange between his spear and my swords, and I noticed that the strength behind his attacks was much higher.

After doing this for some time, Hades ran back before disappearing again, but this time he almost immediately appeared beside me and tried to stab my heart, but I managed to dodge him ... barely.

When his spear hit the ground, I immediately hit the head of the spear with my feet and waved my sword towards Hades' head, leaving him no choice but to abandon the spear and back off a bit.

I immediately threw the spear away and darted towards Hades, but he rushed towards me and entered into hand-to-hand combat.

I was planning to take advantage of this opportunity but two skeletons came out from the ground and grabbed my arms, and I had to give up the swords in order to pull my arms out of them, which means I have to engage in hand-to-hand combat with Hades.

As expected, most of our moves consist of wrestling and the basic movements of punching, kicking and tackling.

Suddenly, fog started gathering in Hades' right hand and pulling his hand back to punch me, I instantly crossed my wrists in front of me and created the Heliotrop rune.

When Hades punched me, a small energy barrier appeared in front of me, but it was able to block Hades's punch.

The barricade disappeared immediately after that and I immediately retreated several meters back.

However, Hades did not give me any time and pointed his hand at me "Hell's fire!"

A sea of ​​black flame blew from his hand towards me, I instantly made a magic shield around me but it started cracking in just seconds, causing me to use my divine energy to create an energy field around me.

Obviously, this flame is so powerful and extremely hot, that the earth is beginning to turn into lava, and I can even feel the tremendous heat even though I am protected by my energy field that will not last long.

I began to resist the thrust from the flame and began walking against the current with difficulty, slowly approaching Hades, I had to stop him or else I would die.

And I don't want to die, at least not now. No, I don't want to be 'non-existent' again, yes, I want to be eternal!

On thinking about this, I nibbled on my teeth and started approaching Hades faster.

But Hades suddenly stopped and rushed towards me while concentrating his divine energy in his other hand and punched my energy field with enough force to break it (because it was already damaged).

While I was amazed, he kicked my chest and threw me to the ground. He immediately sat on top of me and began punching my head from both sides with all his might. I tried to resist him, but ....

"* Sound of cracking *"

The god of the underworld, Hades, looked at the corpse of the Asgardian god under him without an expression on his face, only, nothing.

Although he did not imagine that the young god of wisdom was close to him in strength and skill, in the end, he managed to win and kill his opponent.

Hades stood up and walked a little bit away from the corpse, and could not help but wonder, would his soul go to his underworld or into the afterlife of the Norse gods? If not, he would demand mistress death to have his soul, after all, it was he who killed him.

He will collect his body later, Hades opened a portal to the underworld in front of him and was about to cross it, but ...

Hades felt pain from his neck and could no longer touch his body. The world turned around him and saw his body without a head while the god who had just killed him was holding a sword in his hand, and his consciousness faded.

"That was tiring!" I said as I looked at Hades' corpse and head, they magically disappeared while the gate leading to the underworld closed.

"Hahaha! I am a genius! Worship me, humans! I just killed the god of the underworld!" I said out loud while I couldn't suppress the sense of joy.

That's right, you must be wondering what happened, I, Valli trigevson the great, will explain.

While I was not skilled at illusion magic before, when Hades destroyed my energy field, I did use my divine energy, and a combination of mind magic and illusion, in order to make him think he killed me, even though penetrating his mental resistance required most of my divine energy.

I held a Stygian blade in my hand and went to pick up my other sword, maybe I should send Hades a letter of apology for killing him, or maybe not because he might think I'm making fun of him.

I removed Fafnir's armor and put on my previous elastic armor.

Because soldiers and skeletons were saturated with death energy, my ring could not absorb the stamina, so for the first time in a century I am physically and mentally tired.

I walked into the woods where Zagreus retreated and started calling for him, but I couldn't find him.

"I already took him to Olympus." A familiar voice came from behind me, when I turned around and found that she was Athena, wearing a golden shield and helmet, giving off the aura of the Goddess of War.

"Hey, you told me that you would meet me at the exit of the underworld, but the only person who welcomed us was your uncle," I said to her while not hiding the inconvenience, a little bit of anger, in my voice.

"Regarding this, I really apologize but there was a field of energy preventing me from entering this place. The only reason that enabled me to capture Zagreus was that he had gone out of the field," Athena said while bending her head slightly towards me, and since I am the great god of wisdom, Valli trigevson, I could have known that she didn't fake the apology in her voice.

I'm not going to lie, I thought for a moment that she was deliberately not coming, but when she said ... I can actually feel the after effects of a large range energy field.

"It's okay…" I said while I couldn't muster up enough strength to speak, I said as I fell towards her, "Can I sleep on you?"

"No!" "I was told you fought Hades," she said as she slightly hit my head to push me. "What exactly happened?"

Upon hearing it, I couldn't help but force myself to smile and say, "You have to start calling me the great God Valli!"
