Samsara of Heavenly Life

Echidna was beyond ecstatic when she finally killed David, a human that can use an Arcanum and miraculously survive even when his existence was erased.

She's confident that he will no longer revive as when he did a flash of blue will always appear immediately but now even when a moment passes it didn't appear.

"Hahahaha!"

Her laughter echoed as she basked in victory, ignoring David's clone as he held Gaia who was still sleeping in his arms.

"Hahaha… I won"

Echidna wiped the tears in her eyes that accumulated in her outburst, it's been so long since she fought to the death and her opponent at this time thankfully fell for her cuteness.

"You won?"

Suddenly a heavy voice sounded in front of her and because of her small form she had to look up at the owner of the voice but all that she saw is a pair of blood-red eyes with a strange Wrigley pattern that give her, a god true terror.

She didn't know why but her body no longer listened to her command and all that she could do was stare at the scarlet eyes that seemed to belittle all of her efforts and even her existence.

Meanwhile, the real David who is still holding Gaia can only rub his face tiredly as it is his first time truly using someone's power by defeating them and after winning against Guy he tried to score one against The Madara to use his eyes.

And if not for all of his passive skills to counter Madara's Genjustsus then perhaps he would really lose even with an Arcanum, but the problem is his clone's personality as it seems that Madara rubbed his God complex to them.

"You, Sit."

Tearfully Echidna can only helplessly obey, now that her Arcanum is on the brink of exhaustion after her last sneak attack, she can no longer resist and can only follow David.

"Aren't you supposed to be dead?"

She timidly asks, however, the one who answered her is not the one that she thought to be the real one but the clone that was holding Gaia in his arms.

"Izanagi, a forbidden technique that can only be used by a certain group of people, a technique that can even rewrite not only death but reality itself and if not for her help I don't think I could use it."

David thankfully glanced at the goddess in her arms that was now also looking at him intently.

After their conversation earlier, they had formed a plan as to what they should do at this point but they would need a volunteer for it to work.

But they had a willing one now as their hostage.

"It's a complicated thing but you will experience it shortly."

Echidna was confused at first but terror immediately came back after she notice that the clone in front of her blinked for a moment and a new pattern emerge from his blood-red eyes.

"Kotoamatsukami"

—------

Meanwhile, the city of Orario was beyond peaceful, too quiet that the last Titan unknowingly to itself was now sweating bullets.

Even with its subpar intelligence, it felt the danger that came from the blue-haired woman with a horn emerging from her head.

But like a prisoner in its cell, it can barely move a muscle nor scream as he did earlier as a pressure beyond his word crashes on his body and if not for the woman ignoring his existence then perhaps it would already be dead.

But it can clearly feel the turbulence above the city that can seem to destroy everything.

Slowly the glow from her horn slowly increased until it became a blinding light, illuminating the tower like a beacon in the dark starless night.

Until.

"アル・フーラ(Al Fura)"

The ringing in everyone's ears disappeared along with the Miasma that covered the whole world.

If anyone could see the magic that Ram unleashed at that moment then they would have seen the world enveloped by a rampaging storm until it exploded toward space.

The Titan stared dumbfounded for a moment as it thought that it would be dead as the power unleashed by the blue-haired woman is enough to kill it countless times but seeing her slowly falling to the ground and seeming powerless it thought that the attack might fail and in exchange damage her so without missing a beat the Titan lunged at its opponent.

But like dust in the wind, all that remained is his consciousness before the wind blew again at their place, it didn't even know that it died without a piece of its body remaining.

Slowly one by one the humans and all living beings started to wake up from their slumber after the effect of the miasma disappeared.

Echidna's plan to control them to appoint her as the only god failed and now as their consciousness was gained a gentle light seemed to cover them.

A feeling of warmth covers them while they look at the horizon where a god seems to descend.

Freya looks at the man that simply appeared in the sky and if not for the quick shake of her soul after seeing him then perhaps she wouldn't notice him.

His hair as soft as snow gently blended on the now star filled night sky while his skin shone because of them, his clothes are now tattered but even then it still added a hint of beauty for him.

Freya even forgot the distance between the 20th floor and the sky of Orario as she called upon him and it was rewarded by his smile that was directed at her. (Hephaestus)

His face which was now vastly different from what she remembered but still the same has the look of someone who is happy and content but mixed upon them is the resolve to do something beyond him.

She didn't know what was happening but her voice now contained worry on them, her call for attention became a scream of desperation until he, her Odr released a gentle light of light.

Freya who was calm is now sobbing, perhaps no one knew what was happening but she can clearly see his soul slowly shrinking, along with the Arcanum he has within.

Loudly pleading she felt a strong arm holding her but it was not even registered in her mind as the pain of losing someone she was looking for a long time had now resurfaced in her mind.

"Please…nooo…."

"Freya-sama"

Ottar along with all the Hephaestus, Freya, and Goibniu Familia was now standing lively and miraculously alive even after experiencing death for the first time.

And looking at the 'goddess' above them they knew for certain that it was her doing that revived them and even in confusion one by one they bow their heads in thanks for 'her' grace upon them.

Seeing Freya's reaction they knew that saving them might be the cost of the 'goddess' life.
