657: The original incarnation's first death

The original incarnation's first death

When the New Gods heard Erste's question they showed varying reactions, but most of them showed anger, extreme anger. Anger at the human for looking down on them, anger at their subordinates for losing to a human, and anger at themselves for actually feeling fear.  1

"Heh, how arrogant you are human. It seems that you need to be taught a lesson." 

One of the New Gods teleported in front of Erste and as he was about to make a move, Erste was able to move before him and was about to slash at the other party, but before the weapon in his hand could reach the New God something grabbed hold of Erste's forearm. The New God was faster than Erste and quickly blocked the incoming attack. 

"Now let me show you-" 

The New God couldn't finish what he was saying as Erste gathered mana into his forehead and then suddenly smashed his head on the head of the New God. Despite being the person who attacked Erste's head was the one bleeding while the New God remained unscathed but the power of that headbutt was greater than the New God expected as he felt a little dizzy. 

The New God's grip on Erste's hand loosened. Of course, Erste did not miss this opportunity and quickly attacked, there was not even a single thought of backing away. The New God noticed that the weapon that could harm him was about to hit so he was forced to sacrifice his arm to escape. 

The New God's right arm was sliced clean off and flew upward, normally he could regenerate a new arm instantly but the weapon Erste used didn't allow him to do such a thing. The New God teleported away in shame.

"What are you doing?! Come on, you New Gods like to play with humans right? Then come here and f*cking play with me!" Erste roared at the New Gods who all flinched. 

"Don't get ahead of yourself human!" 

The New Gods were truly mad now and quickly surrounded Erste, two of the New Gods grab hold of Erste's hands, and another took the weapon that could kill them. This time the New Gods no longer spoke any nonsense and quickly restrained Erste. 

Once they got the weapon away from Erste, the New Gods used a spell to wrap chains around Erste's wrists and legs. 

"See, if we really wanted to we could kill you any-" 

Thinking that they had already won one of the New Gods was about to gloat but then something unexpected happened. Erste suddenly roared and stepped forward pulling the chains restricting him, the chains pulled out a part of the ground. 

Still, restricted by the chains but the ground holding him down no longer bothering him, Erste used the chains bound to him as weapons and swung them at the New Gods. 

One of the New Gods had been slapped by the chains, as Erste was about to continue to attack, the other New Gods grabbed hold of the chains. Erste did not care about the New Gods pulling on the chains stopping him from moving forward. 

Erste who was held back for a few seconds suddenly burst with greater power actually pulling the New Gods holding the chains. Erste quickly charged at the New God holding the weapon he needed. Seeing Erste's target the New Gods holding the chains pulled with all their might. 

Erste's two hands were then ripped away from his body and blood sprayed all over, but that didn't stop him from charging at the New God holding his weapon. The New God was frightened by Erste's incredible momentum and before he could make a move, Erste had already bit the hand of the New God. Erste with unbelievable power was actually able to tear off the New God's hand reclaiming his weapon. 

Holding the weapon in between his teeth, Erste killed the New God in front of him. The same as the first New God he had killed a part of the other party's mana had entered Erste's body, but unlike the first time Erste did not receive any new authority but he was able to quickly assimilate the new mana into his body.

Erste did not slow down as he charged towards the nearest New God. The New Gods were still shocked by the sudden death of another one of their companions, but then they saw Erste charging at them, this time they took out their own weapons to defend themselves. 

The battle between the two sides was intense, despite losing his hands Erste's combat prowess did not decrease but instead, it continued to get better and better.

...

Even though Erste's power was growing rapidly as he killed more New Gods, in the end, the New Gods were able to suppress him. This time there was no more talking to the other party, and the moment they had him restrained they killed him. 

Even as Erste was dying there was that vicious look on his face as he never let go of the weapon in his mouth. The New Gods continued to stab him, afraid that he would suddenly move and attack them again. Just one human being who had just gained mana had killed a lot of them, it was the first time they had experienced such fear and shame, worst of all it came from the human they so despised. 

The New Gods felt Erste's life force had been depleted and his current body was truly dead. Once they had confirmed his death after checking several times all of them sighed in relief. 

"What was that?! How come he was so strong?" 

"That was the authority of strength of the first New God he killed, but that authority was supposed to be a weak one, but in that human's hands it became something else entirely." 

"DAMN, DAMN, DAMN!!! Just a single human shamed us so much. After the world resets and he is resurrected I'll make sure to torture him. No, I'll kill him again and resurrect him again to kill him again." 

"I'll join you as well, damn that crazy human. I need to kill him a few more times before I'm satisfied." 

After complaining a bit more, the New Gods who were still alive left the planet.
