Chapter 603 The End of the First Round (4)
”This fucking mortal!” Hades formed a fist with his right hand. As he tightly clenched, his hands turned white. After hearing the mortal’s words, he felt immensely humiliated. Since when had anyone else spoken to him like this?
Never!
”Don’t, husband!” Persephone tried to stop her husband from doing anything foolish. However, he wasn’t listening.
Hades jumped through the window, his rageful scream echoed far, and wide. The spectators widened their eyes in shock. Was this really happening?
”Fool!” Zeus screamed, and stood up. However, he was stopped by Shiva before he could leave the comfort of the viewing room.
”Calm down. This is good thing.”
”How is this good? Hades is ruining the tournament!”
”No need to worry, just watch.”
Isaac’s friends, siblings, parents, and Luna, along with her family members, watched with nervous gazes, and felt like their hearts were about to burst out of anxiousness. Why was he challenging God? What was he trying to prove?
Hades flew across the air, and crashed through the invisible barrier. It was like he was breaking through a fragile piece of glass. He pulled out his bident, a weapon resembling of a two-pronged pitchfork, and smashed it down at the cobblestone ground.
As soon as the bident struck the ground, the ground cracked, and lava started gushing out of the crevices. The whole Moon City trembled under his mighty strike.
The spectators had only one thought, that it was impossible to defeat Hades, the Lord of the Underworld!
However, Isaac wasn’t afraid. As he aimed with his sniper rifle, he pulled the trigger, releasing fast bullets. As soon as the bullets left the barrel, they spun with unstoppable momentum.
Hades pulled out the bident from the ground, and sliced it through the bullets. The cut-in-half bullets bypassed him, and fell to the pits of the lava. The immensely quick bullets, was slashed by Hades effortlessly.
”Gulp…” The Inhumans gulped in fear. They couldn’t even see the bullets, yet, Hades did, and he even managed to slash through them.
The Gods, and Goddesses didn’t react. They expected this to happen. A Player couldn’t challenge a God, and win.
Hades kicked the ground, and leaped over the arena. As soon as he arrived in the air above Isaac, he spun the bident around, and skewered it downward.
Isaac dodged the bident by jumping backward. However, after the bident stabbed through the ground, more lava gushed out of the crevices, filling the air, and flying straight towards him.
Hades pulled out the bident, and watched as Isaac effortlessly dodged the flying lava. Then, he saw him kicking the ground, and suddenly lunging toward him.
Isaac pulled the trigger several times. The bullets flew, and again, was sliced in half by Hades. However, then he pulled out the dagger, shaped like it was made by the spine of some prehistoric dinosaur.
He slashed it through the air, meanwhile the blade approached Hades’ neck. However, the Lord of the Underworld effortlessly blocked the strike with the black shaft of his bident. After the block, he redirected the dagger away, and stabbed the bident towards Isaac.
Isaac was in an awkward position. His left hand, which held the dagger, was pushed to the side, and his right hand, holding the sniper rifle, was next to his waist. His torso was wide-open, and the bident’s pitchfork-like blades, approached his body with scary speed.
”It’s over.” Zeus said with a sigh.
”Not exactly…” Shiva grinned.
Isaac’s pupils showed star patterns. As soon as the bident grazed his torso, his body disappeared into a floating star particles. He immediately re-appeared behind Hades, and plunged the dagger into Hades’ unguarded neck.
Spurt… The golden blood spilled as the dagger got stuck in the neck, and in the muscles.
A silence fell on the arena.
Zeus jumped to his feet, a shock reflecting off his face. Next to him, Shiva continued smiling while a few sweatdrops trailed down his face, even he was shocked that a player was this strong.
”K-Kalzer.” Amour turned to the raven-haired man beside him. Both of them looked shocked.
”Yeah…” Kalzer wiped his sweat, ”Why are we even fighting in the tournament if we can’t win…”
Alice held her beating chest with an excited expression.
After the initial shock, cheers echoed in the Four Seasons. Everyone watching, realized they were watching something that would change the world. One of them, a player, was winning against a God!
”Go Isaac…” Luna formed a fist, and clenched it tightly. Her parents looked shocked, Marshall’s jaw dropped, and Richard gulped with disbelief.
In the arena, Hades coughed out blood, and pulled out the dagger. As soon as he saw the dagger, he grimaced, ”Creation of Hephaestus, tsk!”
Crack… the dagger crumbled into pieces, and littered the ground. The wound on Hades’ neck healed, leaving a lenghty scar.
As he turned around, his crimson red eyes saw Isaac, leaning against his sniper rifle with a carefree attitude.
”You will regret that.”
”Maybe, maybe not.” Isaac positioned the sniper rifle into a shooting stance, and was about to pull the trigger. However, then Hades swung the bident, and deflected the rifle to the side. The bullet left the barrel, and missed him by a mile.
Hades raised his bident, and struck it down. In one last second, Isaac managed to place his sniper rifle as a block. As soon as the two weapons clashed, they jumped backward.
Isaac fired the rifle till the chamber was empty. Hades blocked the bullets, and leaped off the ground. While in mid-air, he spun the bident around, and sent a flurry of black-colored slashes flying across the air.
As Isaac weaved through the slashes, he leaped, and flew straight towards a shocked Hades. He extended his left hand, trying to touch Hades’ face with his fingers. However, the black-haired man dodged the hand, and smashed his feet across Isaac’s face.
”Ugh!” Isaac crashed onto the scorching hot ground, the lava pits surrounding him. Then, a flash of darkness appeared in the air, and Hades fell straight down, with his bident pointing down. It was like he was lightning.
Quickly, Isaac placed his arms below him, and somersaulted forward. The bident struck the ground behind him, destroying it with more lava gushing through the cracks. Hades whipped his head towards the white-haired man, and came across his backhand.
Isaac backhanded the God, and activated the Death Touch. Immediately, Hades’ face started cracking. However, his regenerative abilities kicked in, and his face healed. But, a several crack shaped scars appeared.
