How-not to be an Olympian God!

Alex listened with astonishment.

"If we did cause this, then, shouldn't we intervene?" Alex inquired

When he said this, the wind got stronger and the tent was flapping in all directions.

Children's cries filled the tent while their parents all closely cuddled so the tornado would blow no one off.

As he looked at this scene, Alex decided to go by himself to stop the tornado and defeat this 'Jinni'.

He took out Athena's spear and the system compiled its information.

(Spear of Victory)

Quality: Divine

State: Great

Additional Information: The goddess Athena was born with this deadly spear in her hand.

Alex clenched his fists around the spear and Hermes asked him, "Do you need any help?"

"I-I'll...manage..." Alex was unsure if he would be able to defeat nature, even with his new prowess.

Athena defeated even the fiercest of waves using only this spear and her shield, so he should be able to calm the raging tornado.

Alex left the tent and swiftly stitched the entrance to avoid the sand entering into the tent.

A few kilometers away, Alex could distinguish a beige maelstrom of sharp wind approaching in their direction.

The waters of the oasis were turbulent from the wind and the large fire kept on flickering intensely.

Alex wielded his Faith Energy and diverted it into augmenting his speed. As usual, the world around him slowed down and he became much faster as well.

He bolted in the direction of the tornado and the rotating sand became denser and denser and started obstructing his view.

At the extreme wind speeds of the tornado, the fine grains of sand turned into mini-bullets and wounded Alex's body.

It was painful but his accelerated healing made up for it.

He resumed his run through in the direction of the tornado and because of the ample amounts of sand that were rotating, movement became hard but Alex pushed his way through.

Here, the wind was so strong that if he didn't actively push his body weight onto the ground, it would propel him into the air.

In slow steps, he advanced with the spear tightly in his hand.

Soon enough, Alex couldn't keep his footing and was thrown into the air.

'This is disorienting!' He could feel his body rotating around the eye of the tornado. There was no way he could control himself with only his body weight.

He couldn't see the ground, but Alex assumed he was probably dozens of meters in the air.

Like a funnel, he felt his body approaching the center of the tornado.

'There should be the Jinni in the center...!' Alex had to think fast.

'Bingo!' He came up with a way to find the Daimon. He would use Link to see if there were any nearby targets he could form a connection with, and if so, that would pinpoint the location of the Jinn.

Normally, Link should work on any conscious being.

Alex closed his eyes and tested out his hypothesis while balancing his body in the air.

"You fell into the trap!" Alex said out loud.

*Cough* *Cough*

'I forgot there was sand everywhere.....' Alex coughed out sand.

Earlier, he felt the Link connection retreating in a manner that indicated the receptor refused to connect.

Alex was lucky, if the Jinni just ignored his technique, he wouldn't have known where the latter was or if it even existed, but now, he discerned the exact location of the Jinni.

Alex wielded the heavy spear and

*BAM* *BAM*

The heavy spear moved like a thick and viscous liquid encased it, but it was just the wind.

By moving the heavy spear with his incredible strength, which he augmented further using Faith Energy, Alex was able to form temporary depressions where the pressure and wind speed weren't as high.

Then, using the momentum he accrued from the tornado, he would move to that specific spot.

By wielding this spontaneous technique, he was able to slowly navigate to the location of the Jinni.

When he was close, he still couldn't see anything due to the sand, but Alex determined he was close enough to perform the last part of his plan.

'I'm not sure inducing sleep will work on a spirit, but here goes nothing...' Alex consumed his Faith Energy and cast out a sleep-inducing spell with the effectiveness of the strongest sleep medicine in the direction of the Jinni.

At first, he thought it didn't work, as the tornado was still raging wildly.

'F**k!' He cursed.

Suddenly, he felt the wind speed around him plummet and his body, which was previously held up in the air with the wind, also plummeted.

Alex chose to Incarnate into Hermes and stabilized himself in the air with his wings.

Under the moonlight, the winged Alex looked like an angel and only lacked a halo.

When the tornado had entirely calmed down, Alex went down to examine the situation.

A giant hole had formed around the former eye of the tornado, and strangely, a whiff of smoke was in the air, even though there was no fire.

The black smoke then turned into a humanoid shape.

Alex descended and looked at this strange scene.

A man with ash-like skin and horns was hovering in the sky. He had an appearance that could induce nightmares.

The man had his eyes closed, but he opened them, revealing his scary red glowing eyes.

The Jinni stared at Alex and exclaimed in a crackling voice, "You dare counter Anemo?"

The Jinni referred to itself as 'Anemo', the Koine Greek term for 'wind'.

Alex didn't say anything.

"Saidi(1), I didn't know you were so strong!" Yazid's voice rang out from a distance.

Alex turned around and saw the man galloping swiftly on the camel's back.

He halted next to him and said, "Sir, I will take care of Rih. This Jinni and my tribe go back a long time..."

Yazid referred to the Jinni as the local word for wind, 'Rih'.

Alex actually didn't know how exactly to vanquish a spirit, so he nodded and left the man to his job.

As he galloped towards the Jinni, Anemo tried to cast something but Alex didn't let him and immediately put him to sleep.

When Yazid reached the Jinni, he poured a strange liquid into the spirit's smoke body.

Surprisingly, as soon as the liquid came into contact with the smoke, it made a strange noise and the smoke turned a lighter color, then disappeared.

Yazid then came galloping back, got down from the camel, and kowtowed to him, "Thanks to you, Saidi, a threat of the desert has been eliminated.."

Alex made him stand up, waved his hand, and asked the man, "What's the liquid you used on the Jinni?"

Yazid gave him the flask with the liquid and informed him, "It is a liquid that purifies and burns sin. It also burns the skin."

Alex poured some of the liquid onto his hand and it left a tingling sensation.

'I don't think that's a 'holy liquid', it's probably just an acid that reacted with the gas that made up the Jinni...' Alex concluded.

He gave back the flask and kept his thoughts to himself.

After that, they went back to the tent.
