Chapter 1050 Betrayal
The Deities would need a few seconds to fully bring out their powers so Kisuke went on ahead to one of the unsuspecting Deities and immediately decapitated him and a few others around him, 'What the heck? They're not prepared to defend themselves? Are they really that confident?'
The enemy Deities soon got their bearings and the simultaneous explosions of Divine Power pushed Kisuke back, stopping his charge, "Enough of you, scum!"
A Deity doused in flames and holding a spear came charging towards him and Kisuke responded by pointing his palms towards him, "Hadou no 58, Tenran (Orchid Sky)"
The wind instantly gathered around Kisuke's palm and turned into a tornado that blasted right through the flaming Deity.
The Deity then defended himself by increasing the intensity of the flame around him. This move of his was effective as the intense heat forced the blades of wind away from him. However, he was dumbfounded when he saw Kisuke smirking at him as if he was an idiot. Immediately, a vein popped in his head as he prepared to gather his flames to burn him to a crisp.
Sadly that wasn't set in motion and had to stop when he heard screams behind him. When he looked back, the Deities behind him that hadn't fully prepared were engulfed by a firestorm of his own creation that incinerated them, "N-no!"
Kisuke watched how the intensified flames burned the poor Deities until they were charred, 'That's some very strong flames. Even I wouldn't be able to easily get away unscathed if that hit me. Too bad, they are too much of an individual to fight in a proper group battle.'
Kisuke noticed that the strength of the Deities in this world varied greatly as they could be a lot weaker or stronger than their counterparts on Earth. However, there's one thing that is very consistent among them and that is their mortality is a lot higher compared to Earth Deities, 'They're too soft... I thought Deities like Freya were the standard, but it looks like I was wrong. Well, they couldn't age and they've forsaken the system so this is probably the biggest drawback.'
"Imbecile!!!" Shouted the flaming Deity, but in the end, he couldn't even approach Kisuke as a spear made out of lightning pierced through his head, obliterating it.
Kisuke looked at the other end of the spear and saw Zeus with white lightning arcs crackling throughout his entire body.
"Are they all this easy to kill?" Kisuke asked for confirmation.
Zeus shook his head, "No. Not normally."
"I see."
"But watch out for Deities with Divine Authority of Healing. It's possible for some of them to revive these dead Deities."
Kisuke now knows which targets to look out for and raise their elimination priority to the top, 'Still... No matter how unprepared and easy to kill, there are hundreds of them in the immediate vicinity and thousands could still swarm this place.'
Thankfully, Kisuke knew that they wouldn't be able to use their full power because of how crowded the place was and it'd immediately turn into a royal rumble once enough friendly fire was done, 'Still, it would be a lot more dangerous for us with most of the firepower contained in a small space. Any wrong dodges or block could mean the life of an ally.'
Soon, it wasn't just Zeus who started massacring the Deities, but also the others.
Freya would stun the Deities briefly before cutting off their heads with her Divine Sword. Meanwhile, Loki would transform her own body into various weapons including biological ones like teeth or claws. Kisuke, Yoruichi, and Serafall were shocked when a row of teeth suddenly appeared along her spine and snacked on the Deity attacking from behind.
"A shapeshifter, huh... I wonder to what extent?" Yoruichi muttered being very interested in her ability.
As for the other Gods and Goddesses, Takemikazuchi summoned a single blade and started bisecting the enemies with a single stroke. Hermes would fly around at a blinding speed but in a very silent manner and cut the throat of enemies with a dagger. Hephaestus summoned numerous shields to separate the battle between the Deities and the mortals.
Ganesha started laughing maniacally while waving his hands around while a gigantic hand mirroring his own would appear out of thin air that would slap or flatten his enemies. Meanwhile, Kali would make a circle by joining her hands together and when she looked through it, a black ball would appear that generated enough gravitational pull to shred the enemy Deities into pieces.
'Back on Earth or here, these Hindu Gods really are something else.' Kisuke thought and turned his attention to Artemis, who was putting holes in the Deities with her almost undodgeable arrows of light and then to Miach and Demeter who were working in tandem.
Thanks to Demeter, the Gods, and Goddesses on their side could fight without much worry by keeping them healthy. Since they had to do it fast, they would need to make some sacrifices in the form of injuries by focusing on attacking instead of defending. But thanks to Demeter, the wounds on everyone's body would instantly disappear and reappear on her body where it could heal much faster.
Still, everyone's wounds appearing on her were way too much for her to handle so Miach helped her with the healing process.
Since they were a very integral part of their assault and pretty much the weakest link, Astarte decided to stay beside them to protect them. And out of all the Deities here today, it was her that scared Kisuke the most.
As the Goddess of Love, Astarte has a similar ability of charming others albeit not as strong as Freya's. But the most terrifying part is that whoever she touched would rapidly be drained of their life force as if blood is being drained from them.
If this is in the Upper World, this ability would have been essentially useless with regenerations and vitality being supported by the system, but here in the Lower World, it became one of the most horrifying abilities.
Finally, the three old Gods were doing the heaviest lifting. Zeus with his lightning-clad body, Odin with his never missing spear, and Ouranos with a bulked-up body that exuded incredible strength and unbridled violence.
The initial assault went well, but as far as everyone is concerned, that's it.
After eliminating about 30 or so Deities, the rest were able to gather and finally properly hit back, immediately changing the tides of the battlefield to their disadvantage.
And when everyone became in the defensive position, Kisuke looked at Yoruichi and Serafall and nodded at them before yelling, "Retreat!"
Everyone heard it and carefully retreated while covering each other's backs. However, it was then that all their hope came crumbling down.
The children and the Xenos were able to return to Hestia's barrier but as the Deities were about to leave through Yoruichi's portal, it suddenly disappeared, along with the extreme weakening of her aura.
Everyone hurriedly turned to her and was stunned and horrified to see both Yoruichi and Serafall, gasping for air while their mouths were gurgling with blood. On their chest, an arm was sticking out and holding their hearts that were still beating.
"Yoruichi! Serafall!" Kisuke shouted at the top of his lungs while propelling himself towards them.
The hands that are holding their hearts clenched, crushing them into meat paste, "You!!!"
But before he could arrive, another pair of arms appeared from behind them and grabbed their necks. " "K-is-uke." " Were their last words before their necks were snapped and the light of life disappeared from their eyes.
The arms then tossed the corpses away, fully revealing the four armed man, "Odin!!!" Kisuke uttered a blood-curdling scream while waving his sword and releasing a blood colored wave.
