1036: The Ruler's Defeat

The Ruler's Defeat

-----

"Divine Wind And Ice Magic: {Winter's Judgement}!"

Conjuring the power of Wind and Ice within my hands, I unleashed a gigantic Storm akin to the ones that would only appear in Winter. So strong and powerful that the entire weather changed to my magic, the sky turned completely black and snow began falling from the sky, covering Heaven Port.

FLUOOOOSSSSHH!

Icy winds of extremely powerful force drove away the scales of the Leviathan, as I finally reached her once more, grabbing her neck with all my strength.

"I've got you!"

"RAAAAH!"

However, Leviathan wasn't a mere snake I could easily grab. The oceans below her trembled furiously, as countless of gigantic snakes made out of the sea emerged one after the other, attacking me at the same time, trying to entangle around my body.

"Uller! Skadi!"

"Got it!"

"Understood!"

Both unleashed their special abilities, as their bodies gained red auras and began to swing furiously against the Ocean Snakes, probably a high-level divine water magic Leviathan was conjuring.

SPLASH!

SPLASH!

SPLAAASH!

The oceanic snakes were being dealt with, but more and more continued to emerge constantly. I wasn't even able to get to her and she tried to quickly decimate me with everything she had.

"You've really going all out, huh?! Well, me too!"

I quickly generated seven more heads around my body, as I used Magic Transfer on each head to conjure a single powerful spell eight times, and that spell was…

"Divine Primordial Ice Magic: Absolute Zero x8!"

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Eight Magic Circles appeared in front of me, as the power of Absolute Zero was conjured eight times in a row, covering Leviathan with a freezing power capable of overpowering anything! Her internal body, her external body, and even her soul, it was all frozen!

"Now get back to the place you belong!"

I roared furiously, charging my draconic fists with everything I had and then unleashing a gigantic hammer attack by shaping the scales of my hands into an enormous hammer!

CLAAAAASSSSSSHHHHH!!!

TRUUUUMMM…!

The enormous blow hit Leviathan's ice statue, cracking her entire body as countless pieces of it fell from all sides. She was so hard that even that wasn't able to completely shatter her into pieces.

SPLAAASH!

She fell into the water, diving deep. I couldn't even sense her soul anymore, as I had frozen it as well. I don't know if she's dead or alive, but I'll take the chunks she lost when I hit her, quickly storing them in my Inventory Space.

The other monsters were being slaughtered by Benladann and Miranda, as Benladann's axe sliced through everything with ease, generating chaotic explosions of chaos element and spreading further and further, the monsters were already scared of her, many ran away and the hardiest remained, which were being crushed by Miranda as well.

Miranda shapeshifted into a form that combined several monsters together into an even more monstrous and chimeric version of the Chaos Dragon, Ragnarök, the fragment we defeated back in the Frost Tower. Using this form, she began to easily get through the monsters, generating enormous spikes of chaos across the battlefield and impaling the monsters. Some were hardier than others, requiring teamwork. The monsters teamed up, Frost, Kumo, and Kuro unified their strength with the Chaotic Beast and Shiro, slowly breaking through the Shell of the Atlas Sea Turtle while tanking its powerful Earth Magic, ultimately destroying its insides.

"Phew… Is it finally done?" I sighed, looking into the horizon.

I tried to sense the presence of Leviathan…

BA DUMP.

I heard her heart; it began beating once more.

Ah, she's alive.

For fuck's sake.

Maybe I should go down there and freeze her again?

Can I even kill her? I've already thrown at her several Ultimate Attacks.

I think she can tank a bit more, but she seems to be losing at the end, always at the losing end, but tanking and healing relentlessly.

That's the ruler of the abyss for you.

I quickly dove deep underwater, seeking her.

If things come to this, I'll just have to break her soul and devour it. I can't really think of anything…

Else…

Suddenly, I found her, she had unfrozen half of her body, and she was rubbing her nose over an enormous, whale-sized egg floating in the middle of the ocean.

She seemed saddened, as if in pain, licking her egg and then using her body to entangle it and protect it…

"GROOH… GRAAHH…"

"Huh, so you're a mother."

"GRRR?!"

Leviathan quickly looked at me furiously.

Her scarred face and her sharp eyes opened wide angrily, cursing through my body. She did this all our fight, trying to lower my stats. It didn't worked much, but it is her instinctive way to quickly attack opponents.

"You're strong, I have to admit it. I've gotten a lot of your scales and other parts I ended chipping away from you." I told her through telepathy. "I'll take that as a compensation from your annoyance. Thankfully there are no casualties back in Heaven Port, just several wounded."

"GRRRRRR…"

Leviathan didn't attacked me this time, protecting her egg.

Sigh…

"Okay I won't do anything to you, just don't mess with me and leave Heaven Port alone, okay? I am a parent as well."

"GRRR…?"

She seemed to be understanding what I said to her, she simply didn't knew how to speak herself.

"Yeah, yeah, I am a father." I sighed. "I understand how you love your kid, keep raising it. Don't risk your life for pointless things… I know I shook you off with that tremor. I don't want to say I'm sorry but yeah, I admit it."

"GRAH!"

She angrily roared, as if barking me to get off her territory.

"Okay, okay, I am leaving."1

I swam out of the water, as I found a big feast of ocean monsters of high rank to eat, everyone else was resting after the battle.

"Phew, well, that was tiring…" Sighed Benladann.

"But everything's alright now, right?" I wondered.

"Yeah, yeah…" Miranda said. "We have to get out of here quickly though, before people see us…"

"Riiiiight…" I quickly began storing everything in my Inventory Space, as Benladann walked to my side with a smile.

"At the end you forgave her, huh? Was she a mother protecting her egg?" She wondered.

"Wait, how did you know?" I asked.

"I just felt it. There was something in her eyes… in her relentlessness…" She said. "I guess you did the right thing at the end…"

"You think so?" I sighed. "Maybe I should had just killed her and eaten her egg…"

"Hey that's horrible!" Benladann laughed.

"Hahaha, yeah, I was just laughing- Huh?"

As I was looking into the horizon, I noticed gray silhouettes approaching.

They were moving at an incredible speed towards here…

Before I could realize it, the silhouettes took proper shapes.

And they were mechs…
