I rely on myself

Chapter 454 The Severed Sun
Although Perseus felt threatened by the sword of light formation in front of him, he did not take it too seriously and even had a relaxed smile on his face.

"Hmm... Is this a kind of flying prop? It seems that you, young God Slayer, want to compete with me in archery. Then I will grant your wish!"

The hero looked at these light balls with a playful look and muttered to himself. The sword in his hand disappeared and turned into a longbow in his hand. A quiver also appeared on his back, which of course contained dozens of arrows.

Compared to Perseus, Kusanagi Godou did not have such leeway. He quickly gathered up the sword to ensure its power, because he knew that the next step was crucial.

Dozens of swords of light were surrounding Perseus at this moment, ready to rush forward and kill the hero at any time. However, faced with this situation, the hero simply smiled heartily and then chanted the Word of God.

"In that case, sun that rises in the east, grant me strength! Grant my friend Veleslana the hammer that will defeat him!"

The halo appeared again from behind Perseus, proof of the sun god possessed by the man from the east.

This light is the powerful force he got from Mithras, the Eastern God he mixed with in Rome, and it is the source of the troublesome ability to seal Uruslagna.

Kusanagi Godou was ready at this moment, ready to release all the golden "swords" at once to fight against this power.

“Now, please use the protection of my sun again and shoot this arrow… Young God Slayer, light will lose its brightness before a brighter brilliance. You must understand this truth well!”

At the same time, Perseus shot an arrow at the moon in the sky.

The arrow flew up high - and then turned into hundreds of rays of light that fell to the ground. The sword that was hit by the rain of light melted and dissipated like ice in the summer sun.

"...Is it really not working? This ability is really troublesome."

Kusanagi Godou complained about the other party's troublesome ability, but he was not too surprised because he had expected this situation.

If we only talk about overall strength, Perseus is not the strongest among the enemies Kusanagi Godou has fought, but the opponent's ability really restrains him.

As long as the opponent still has the name of Mithras, the hero of light, all his attacks will be ineffective.

But even so, Kusanagi Godou had no intention of surrendering. Since the opponent was so troublesome because of the name of Mithras, the hero of light, he might as well cut off this name.

With this thought in mind, Kusanagi Godou chanted the Word Spirit once again, reviving the disappeared 'sword'.

"Your second hidden name is Mithras. The place where this god is worshipped and reigns over the center of the world is the country we are familiar with called Rome. The people of this country worship gods introduced from abroad and use them to establish a new religion. They have a very generous and promiscuous habit.

The homeland of the foreign god Mithras is Persia, located east of Rome. There is also another god who appeared from the east, Helios - the Greek sun god who has his own palace at the end of the east, and is called Sol in Rome!
Both are 'the man from the East' and 'the sun god'. The careless Romans unknowingly mistook Helios for Mithras, and then another 'man from the East' - Perseus was also added in! "

Since the 'sword' cannot cut off all of the opponent's divinity at once, then the next best option is to cut off the opponent's divinity of Mithras, the hero of light, so as to reverse the restrained situation and put both parties back on the same starting line.

With this thought in mind, Kusanagi Godou bet all his swords without hesitation.

"The man from the East - hidden behind this name is that the people of ancient Rome combined the Greek heroes Perseus and Helios, and the Persian sun god into one. Only the Romans, who had both tolerant and casual religious concepts, would do such a brutal act. You are not a hero of ancient Greece...! You are just the god worshipped by the Roman Empire before it was unified into a monotheistic religion. You are just a new hero god!" As the spirit of words chanted, a new sword of light emerged, forming a ten-fold and twenty-fold sword formation that surrounded Perseus again.

Looking at this situation, even Perseus, who had the power to seal the sword, couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Huh, your tongue is very flexible, but on the battlefield, steel weapons are more useful!"

As Perseus spoke, he shot arrows again to destroy the surrounding swords of light. In response, Kusanagi Godou continued to make new swords as if to fight back.

"Why doesn't Veleslana's power work on Mithras? The answer is actually very simple. It comes from Mithras, the god of the East. If we trace it back to the source, it is Mithra - Veleslana's master!

The ancient leader of the East, Mithra, who is your prototype, naturally has the ability to seal the power of Veleslana! So first of all, you must cut off this solar power!"

The sword's spiritual power was running low, so Kusanagi Godou placed his hopes on this next and final sword.

Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand towards the precious weapons around him, and a large amount of light gathered at this moment to form a huge golden blade.

There is no doubt that this is his final 'sword'.

Seeing this scene, Perseus was undoubtedly ignited, and shouted to Kusanagi Godou: "This is the right thing to do, my nemesis! Hahahaha... Although I have completely forgotten about this matter, I will take this opportunity to ask you! God Slayer, tell me your name. Perseus hereby admits that you are a man worthy of being my nemesis. Let me remember you well!"

"My name is Kusanagi Godou! But I don't think it's necessary for you to remember it!"

"No, I have already remembered your name. Let's continue our battle!"

The hero shouted excitedly in response to the name Godou had written.

Are all the heroes of ancient times exactly like him? If so, I definitely don't want to make friends with them. I'm not Salbatre Doni, who can drink and have a heart-to-heart talk with enemies who cut each other in a duel an hour later. Unfortunately, I don't have this interest.

With this thought in mind, Kusanagi Godou no longer hesitated. He swung the sword in his hand, which had been sharpened to perfection, at Perseus like a knife, and the golden sword flew straight like an arrow.

Because it happened too suddenly, and Perseus had not expected that the sword that he had spent so much effort to successfully make would be thrown at him so carelessly by Kusanagi Godou, he was completely unable to react.

By the time he reacted, it was too late to dodge, and Perseus could only raise the longbow in his hand to block the sword.

But as expected, the golden sword directly destroyed the longbow and penetrated deeply into the hero's burly body.

The next second, light burst out, and a powerful shock wave suddenly erupted, blowing Kusanagi Godou and Perseus away.
