The battle watched by all! Hermes the Commentator. A little Chaos!

"It seems things are about to start! Let's lace a bet I already know where my money is going!" Hermes declared with a mischievous smile and got off the podium with a smile that extended to his ears. 

"Oh, what's this a little girl appeared out of nowhere!" Hermes shouted, pointing his finger at the screen where Ophis was, "The little girl feels unnatural. No way it's a spirit! and an unknown one!" he looked at the gods around who were fixated on the screen trying to find out who's the spirit it is after all the spirit could be said to be children of gods or their vessels. 

"Huh? That spirit turned into a weapon? A sword!?" he shouted and leaned his body on the podium. "They are about to clash!" He shouted, and auras of both Regal and Scathach burst out, and both attacked. 

Hermes's mouth was wide open seeing what just happened, the slash from Regal's sword and the thrust from Scathach spear created an attack from shockwaves, "Incredible, just a simple motion can create such attacks," 

Hermes commented rapidly with no stop his eyes fixed on the screen, just like all the gods, adventures, and people who were watching. Matter of fact the world was watching, Orario is a place where gods gather but some gods explore the world as well, in each city or country gods are roaming. So when they could use their divinity to watch a war game they did, showing everyone around them as well.

On the battlefield, Regal waved his hands small tornado formed. "Regal formed a tornado in his hands w-" Hermes had to cut himself off there as what happened was instantaneous, the small tornado expanded out to an inferno tornado and covered the battlefield blocking the view. the screen changed and it showed the inside of the inferno tornado.

"What just happened!? that small tornado turned into a blazing storm!? and it was instantaneous, amazing!" Hermes shouted which was heard by all and broke them out of the stupor they were trapped just by seeing the battle. 

The screen showed the battlefield scorched by the inferno tornado, Scathach raised her ankle and stomped, it looked like nothing happened but in the next second the ground shattered from where she was standing which continued out from where Scathach was standing, and the next second the battlefield was shattered. 

"It seems that the Scarlet Empress and The Entity made their move setting the battlefield!"

Hermes shouted making the blood boil of the people who were watching in excitement and some in fear. 

"Scarlet Empress shattered the ground and as a warrior against a mage it gives her some advantages, while The Entity made an Infornoo tornado trapping them in and making a barrier making the battlefield limited and increasing the chances of his magic hitting, Do not forget people and gods The Entity is also a swordsmen so close combat isn't a disadvantage!!!" 

"Oh, they disappeared- o they are clashing! But there is no shockwaves or a sound..?" Hermes's face became confused while the people mirrored his expression. 

Crack! Boom! 

"Oh, the sound and the shockwaves are here! but it sounds like glass breaking?" he continued, commenting just like this. 

On the battlefield, Regal and Scathach were standing still and looked like they were talking, "What are they talking about? And why did they stop!" People all over the world stared at the screen wondering what was going on. 

"Hmm!? something is about to go down! Something changed around them!" And just like Hermes depicted both Regal and Scathach clashed and this time they didn't stop at one but exchanged countless attacks, "It got heated up! Whoa! Their speed is increasing! Were they just warming up earlier!" he shouted, jumped up and down. "Not just the speed but also the power! they are going too fast!" 

"The ground is sinking! everything around them is being destroyed! Their figure is too fast and blurry now they are going too fast to the point that we can't comprehend them! something is glowing their attacks are becoming more fierce!" 

"They pushed each other back, they are disappearing again where did that go!!!" Hermes could no longer see what was going on, "Many elemental attacks are being formed, and they are flying!"

"Stormcaller's Glacier disaster," Regal's voice echoed from the screen, it was loud enough to be heard by all.

"A spell has been cast and look! in the corner, a red blur is heading downwards!" Hermes started to make exaggerated gestures, with a crazed smile but a clear fear could be seen if anyone were to look into his eyes. 

The inferno tornado started to form ice and followed the rotation of the tornado making an incredible blue and red tornado. Ice spears and snowflakes started to fall all around the battlefield. 

"Sky's fall!" Regal's voice echoed again 

"Another spell! The Entity is casting another spell how will the Scarlet Empress counter it!" Hermes could no longer describe what was going on and only said what he could,

"Pyroclasmic Fury"

"The ground turned into a volcano!" Hermes' voice fell while the volcano had already unleashed the Inferno Nova, Hermes could keep up.

Boom!

"What is that devastating Spell!!!" the Inferno Nova was blasting concentrated blue flames to the sky which expanded and covered all the corners of the Inferno tornado blinking the screen. 

"What is this blue flame? Nothing can be seen anymore, except those flames!" Hermes was now in an awkward position barely balancing on one leg while half of his body was in the podium and about to fall off. 

Because of the defending blast of the volcano Regal two spells, he cast Glacial Thunderstrike and Tempest Crystal went unheard, All looked at the screen waiting for the outcome but,

BOOOM!!! 

another defending explosive sound came, and the blue flames that covered the screen disappeared and showed what had happened but none cared for that and looked at Regal who was blocking a throw from Scathach, suddenly Regal's figure was replaced by Scathach while Regal was forced downwards with tremendous speed. 

Hermes who was about to speak slipped his balance and fell off hitting his head and groaning harshly on the floor, his connection with the screen was cut off so no one knew what had happened to him nor did they care. 

Scathach took a throwing stance in the air while her spear glowed, and the tip of the spear radiated a deathly aura. Hermes got up and reconnected. 

"That Spear is the legendary weapon! Gáe Bulg!!! a weapon with the ability to reverse causality and hit the target no matter what!" He managed to get up but this time he clutched the podium and leaned his whole body on it while his leg was in the air, if anyone was watching him they would burst out laughing.

Many gasps came mostly from the gods as they understood what Hermes was talking about, their faces distorted into solemness and fear, while some people gasped as if they understood...

Regal who was on the ground was shown, his sword disappearing in the eyes of the people watching, they couldn't see what was happening but were still watching. Rehal lunged his right hand and ripped out his heart raising it to the sky as if it was an offering, the Spear that was thrown could even be seen by the people, just a red line. 

And then it happened the screen showed Regal's wrist and the heart he was holding disappeared. Many didn't even know what Rega was holding only the advantures above level 4 could tell. 

Regal's figure disappeared as well, while the spear Gáe Bolg was nowhere to be seen. 

Ruphas who was watching the battle from the sky almost entering space dived down, while Yue who was sitting on top of Babel tower stood up, Both had solemn expressions. 

In the Realm of Regal, Buddha got up and his divinity licked a bit, while the Luna who was watching from the roof expanded her wings while a very dense breath attack gathered. 

In the prayer chamber under the guild, Ouranos gritted his teeth and got up the whole chamber trembling. 

Someplace far from the Orario, in a small village inside a house. an old man's eyes glowed blue while lighting cracked around him, on his side a boy with white hair and red eyes was reading a book with excitement. The old man was Zuse while the boy was Bell. Zuse's eyes returned back to how it was a moment ago and checked if Bell noticed it, while he didn't. 

And in a faraway land in a dark cave, a pair of dragonic eyes opened. 

Back on the battlefield, the air crackled with thunderous roars, everything was forced up and crumbled like sandcastles, and the world seemed to tremble which it did. An inferno tornado which was set as a barrier was almost torn apart, the sky lost its color, and from the deep in the earth where the spear was embedded glowed with blinding brilliance. 

People around the world felt as if the world was ending, the blinding brilliant light disappeared and silence fell, the faces of the people became horrified, some dropped to their knees while some cried in silent tears, and a sense of imminent doom was felt in the city of Orario, the whole world was filled with fear. 

 In the city of Orario, the ones who could act did so, Ruphas reached the ground raised her hand, and chanted,

"Hex Shield Matrix"

This spell is one of those spells that the previous Ruphas created, the souls of both the previous and the new ones are merging so the new Ruphas also knew this spell. 

multiple hexagonal shields appeared and covered the city of Orario, the shield pulsed with a tremendous amount of mana but it wasn't enough. 

Yue who was standing in the tower of Babel floated up and touched the shield, she started to pour all her mana, strengthening it. 

In the prayer chamber, "Fels!" Ouranos called out, his tone was serious. Fels who was watching from the shadow showed himself, "Inforce that barrier, also when this battle ends all advantures above level 2 must guard the city against the dungeon," he ordered and his divinity poured out cracks appeared in the prayer chamber, and with only a few noticing he strengthened the city wall and the ground while doing everything he could to make the shield Ruphas created strong enough to hold on. 

Buddha who had stood up, his eyes were glowing with a flower pattern. he smirked and sat down nonchalantly. Buddha could see into the future, and although it was just a moment, it was enough to make him not take action. 

Luna who had charged up an attack was holding it and compressing it, making the attack even stronger. She stopped at a point when the breath attack was condensed to the size of a basketball, she started to channel her mana towards the shield with no hesitation. 

This all happened instantaneously. 

all sound vanished, and a deafening explosion shattered the eerie silence, ripping through the air with a force that seemed to me unfathomable. the screen changed and it showed everything from above Orario.

The inferno tornado, which stood and the barrier was ripped apart and engulfed while flattening trees mountains, and everything on its path. 

The shockwave came and clashed with the shield Ruphas had created, and it held out with no signs of taking damage but it was pushed back a bit, Ruphas frowned seeing things, and held them tighter which others who were helping also put in more effort.

she had enchanted the shield to cancel all the sound, if not then just the sound of the explosion would have killed all the people and even advantures who were level 1 with no resistance and maybe also killed most of the gods. 

Another shockwave came followed by another, the shield glowed in a blue light being powered more and stopped being pushed back, in the screen the explosion's expansion seemed to slow down and come to a halt and everything seemed to be frozen in a moment and a eerie stillness covered the world. 

In this suspended moment, the world watched, even on the opposite side of the world where it was night the screen showed the battle and the people got up and watched, no one dared to speak, in just the opposite side of the world but in every corner where a god was the people gathered and watched with anticipation and fear.

The explosion which seemed to stop seemed to make it move and it expanded rapidly like a raging beast but then it stopped again with a deafening roar and the explosion collapsed upon itself and disappeared as if it never existed. The sky was distorted groned, the battlefield was destroyed and in its place, there was a ginormous crater, the crater was so big that it could fit more than 10 Orario and it was deep to the point the tower of Babel could be stacked and still not reach the surface. 

The remains of the explosion faded and in the center of where the explosion started a lone figure was seen. 

"It's The Entity!" Hermes who was still connected to the screen voiced out and broke the silence and everyone seemed to break out of their stupor but still no words were spoken, "It- it-IT NOT OVER YET!" Hermes exclaimed with terror, the people who had gained hope seeing the explosion disappeared imminently and fell into despair again, while the ones who held anticipation were now in fear, while the crazy ones laughed in joy. 

The figure on the screen cleared up and showed Regal almost in his full glory, with only his pants protecting him, a few noticed something off about Regal but couldn't tell what was wrong.

The rings around him were the first to catch his attention while the orb in his hand was ignored, but then Hermes had a wild guess and he involuntarily spilled it out, "That o-orb he is holding is-s-is it the e-explosion?" he muttered and that was heard clearly by the people, making thing more chaotic. 

Regal's third soul ring moved in front of him while the orb combined with it. and Scathach resummoned her spear charging the same attack. 

The people of Orario were horrified some got down on their knees and cried and begged while some tried to run out of desperation but the majority stood and watched. 

Regal and Scathach unleash their attacks, and the ones who were on Orario and were still watching were awed while those who watched from the screen were standing up and watching with anticipation, all their fears watched away or suppressed just by seeing the final clash, even though they couldn't understand. 

Regal's attack on the Cosmic Nova burst out with infinite colors and engulfed the spear while also expanding and coving more of the sky and raging towards the boundless space. The Cosmic Nova slowly started to dissipate and showed what was remaining. 

The scar it had left was beautiful and the people who watched were awed, but then

On the screen, the spear Gáe Bulg was shown its tip still having the deathly aura, it started to fall and gain speed, and the people who were watching looked with their eyes wide open, the spear fell and missed Regal and headed to the deepest part of the crater and embedded it seld inside while creating another crater. 

A moment of silence fell and the world watched in fear for the continuation of the battle but the the Screen shifter to Scathach who was missing an arm and a third of her leg, started to fall with no semblance of trying to continue the fight. Regal appeared next to Scathach and caught her. 

The screen zoomed in on them, and the world watched when Regal kissed Scathach, the two landed on the ground and Regal placed Scathach on his lap. he seemed to say something but the screen couldn't catch it. 

but "Abyssal Embrace," Regal's voice echoed. and a deathly aura covered his hands while he creased her face, Scathach's body was covered in an eerie black glow and she closed her eyes. 

"☥ ⚛ ✰ ✦ ☍ ☬ ☍ ☬ ⚛ ☥ ☉ ✰ ☍ ☥ ☠ ☥ ☍ ☥ ☠ ☯ ☬ ☠ ☮ ☯ ✪ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☮ ✰ ✪"

A voice echoed from Regal while he picked up Scathach in a princess carry, making her head lean on his shoulder. 

"☥ ⚔ ⚛ ☥ ☉ ☥ ☬ ☯ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☥ ☿ ☬ ☥ ☠ ☥ ☍ ☥ ☉ ☥

☯ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☮ ☠ ☬ ☥ ☮ ☥ ☠ ☬ ☯ ☥ ☥ ☊ ☬ ☬ ☬ ☬ ☠ ☍ ☯"

Regal's voice echoed again and it was heard by all, none could understand what he spoke not anyone not even the gods. Regaled stepped into the air and flew, avoiding all the destruction while taking small steps toward Orario.

"✰ ☥ ⚔ ☿ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☮ ☥ ☠ ☥ ☍ ☥ ☥ ☥ ☠ ☬ ☍ ☥ ☯ ☬ ☯ ☯

⚰ ☥ ✰ ☯ ☬ ☬ ☥ ☯ ☥ ☬ ☯ ☥

☥ ☍ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☠ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☠ ☥ ☮ ☥ ☥ ☬ ☥" 

Regak words were incomprehensible but people all over the world heard them and felt at ease all looked towards the screen, watching Regal take small steps. 

"☬ ☮ ☬ ☠ ☬ ☤ ☥ ☬ ☯ ☥ ☬ ☯ ☬ ☥ ☮ ☿ ☬ ☥ ☠ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☠ ☬ ☥ ☮ ☥" 

Some people got on their knees and bowed while some watched with reverence while printing Regal's figure on their mind.

"☥ ☯ ☬ ☠ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☉ ☥ ☬ ☠ ☬ ☥ ☬ ☯ ☥ ☬ ☥ ☥ ☬ ☉ ☬ ☍ ☥ ☮ ☥ ☥"

Regal's chant ended and all could feel it, None understood what he spoke but all watched in awe for them Regal was a godly being someone who was unstoppable. A legendary existence. 

Regal fourth soul ring glowed and the world watched how Scathach's limbs returned and all her wounds disappeared.

Regal and Scathach disappeared leaving the world to wonder what would happen now. 

---Regal's Realm---

Regal and Scathach appeared on the rooftop of the mansion, Luna who was there greeted them with a small nod while looking at the concentrated ball of breath she had made. Regal gestured for her to deal with it and made a ball just like Luna just with little mana and absorbed it back leaving nothing. 

Luna's eyes brightened and she started to absorb the breath she condensed. Regal chuckled and blinked into the living room, where all the familia were gathered with the executive of the Loki familia. 

"Welcome back! you two made a grand show!" Buddha greeted them with a grin he was looking into the future so he already knew they would arrive. 

"That was the point, I had plans and this is something that would help me with something," Regal said while walking to the second floor with Scathach still in a princess carry, "Head to the dungeon, it won't stay quiet, and dont bother up for the time we dont get out." He stated.

"Hey, both of you are in horrible condition, you, might be able to hide it from others but not from my eyes," Buddha commented, and took his lollipop out and changed its flavor. he looked at Regal from the corner of his eyes, "Just like I said." he muttered. "Rest up well." 

Regal looked back and gave him a bitter smile he had blood trailing from his mouth, "Fu... well, your request is coming up soon," Regal said and disappeared. Buddha just smiled and looked around.

"What!? you heard what the guy said, get going to the dungeon," Buddha shouted with annoyance from the look everyone was giving him. 

"Where did that lazy god who always lost go...?" Shinoa muttered and since the room was silent everyone heard it, those who knew what she meant laughed while others were confused. A vein showed itself on Buddha's forehead, the games on his phone were a misery and a blessing for him, he wouldn't give u but couldn't win as well. 

The system taunted him from time to time which added to his frustration and the games became a sore spot for him

--------------

A day passed and everything calmed down in Orario, almost everything returned to how it was before the battle, the majority of the people tried to forget the battle but couldn't and started to do what they did every day some other people did the same and eventually everyone did so. Some wanted to talk about the battle but because of the atmosphere, none dared to speak out first.

but people all over the world talked about the battle, some embarked on a journey toward Orario while some headed to the site side of Orario, the world was lively.

Hermes went above and beyond and told everyone what had happened, the outcome of the battle, the destruction, how and why they were safe, the deaths that were caused by it, and the legends of the two who fought while also explaining why this is the greatest thing to happen to Orario and also pointing out the disadvantages and finally ending it with some secrets of the dungeon.

The heart of the people of Orario was in chaos, the advantures were the most chaotic, some who were stuck at level 1 for a long time were disparate while some hearts blazed with determination. 

Many people left the city, getting a place to live in Orario was already difficult and it wouldn't allow advantures to leave without a good reason but this time no one stopped them, the guild even helped them to get out, this was on orders as if they tried to stop them it will only bring trouble and more work so they just toss the people out and restricted the entry. 

The east side of Orario was completely closed off. 10 meters from the East gates of Orario the crater started, some members of the Ganasha familia were deployed there to make sure that people dont go there or crow the place, but almost no people did and only a few advantures came to check but they were turned back.

In the dungeon, the Fraye Familia and the Loki Familia were in a corporation, which was overseen by Ruphas who promised to beat the shit out of them if any of them fought or acted hostile. 

Alan who is the second biggest simp of the Freya Simp Army was not having it so he questioned Ruphas, which ended with Aline being hung on the ceiling of the 18th floor with his hands tied and legs broken, his tail used at the rope to tie his hands while his mouth was stuffed with a crystal Ruphas broke from the crystal ceiling.

He was left there while everyone watched him, with amusement and fear, amusement because of the poor cat's fate and fear of being done the same. No one spoke or showed any hostility matter of fact they became friends when Ruphas was around and if she was in the same camp or checking up on them they became best friends. 

Ruphas wasn't someone who would let things be light so her arua was constantly out, Otter was acting how he always des and didn't bother much which gained the approval from Ruphas. 

Otter wanted to challenge her before but he was completely sure that she would not even glance at him and just end it the moment it started. Otter was the most stand fast now more than when the Zuse and Hara familia were around, he was sure that every one of the Buddha familia was a legendary being or a figure as for people like Killua, kurapika, and Shinoa who weren't strong he guessed that they were being cultivated and didn't look into it further.

---

Hermes right now was being detained by his familia for going overboard, in an office room Asfi was sitting behind the deck while glaring at Hermes. 

"Lord Hermes, do you know how much chaos you have caused?" Asfi asked to which Hermes tilted his hat and raised his hands in surrender, then a bright smile appeared brightening the room. 

"Yes I know what I did, it was necessary! also, it was incredible and I could hold myself back," his tone was casual and uncaring to the maximum. Asfi just sighed she knew him to understand that Hermes would do it again he was given the chance and there was no stopping it. 

"Ugh! My work will just pile up if I talk to up!" She said irritated and ignored him, Hermes just smiled and left. 

Hermes had announced to the city of Orario his estimates of the destructions, Hermes had concluded the death and estimated how many died which was more than 200 thousand, and made it clear that the destructions left behind were never going to be forgotten. The scar on the sky could still be seen but it wasn't so much anymore but in the night it looked spectacular. 

Hermes also mentioned the shield that was created by Ruphas and how she protected the city and what would have happened if she didn't, making her a hero in everyone's eyes. He then took out the small book and spoke about Scathach legends while making Regal a mysterious being that roamed the world and was worshiped as a god. Hermes blew their legends to new heights and sometimes even made random stories, that made their legends more grander. 

He proceeded with how their presence was the greatest thing to happen to Orario and emphasized that Scathach is a legendary teacher who taught many heroes in the past. 

He also mentioned some points about the dungeon that no mortal should know, he mentioned that the dungeon was growing and was trying out new things. he mentioned the three grand quests being proof of it and the possible slaying of the Black Dragon soon. 

Hermes didn't stop and went on and on until Ouranos shut him down.

-------------------

In the Regal's Realm. 

In a very large room that looked to be made for an empire but with modern furniture instead of the medieval one. The the center a massive bed was present and there were two figures there. 

it was Regal and Scathach, Regal was leaning on the bed frame while Scathach was on his chest sleeping peacefully. Neither had changed, Scathach hadn't woken up, while Regal hadn't gotten up from his position after settling down.

Regal's eyes opened and he looked at Scathach whose face was inches away from his, he creased her face and her eyes twitched and fluted open. 

"You finally woke up," he muttered gently while Scathach pushed Regal's chest and got off of her sleeping position, Regal's other hand was around her waist and didn't let her go, she looked at him with a little confusion than a realization struck her and she smiled. 

Regal pulled her close and hugged her their nose touching. "So, how was death?" He asked with a smile.
