At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 444 Hades: Shh! Can we make peace?
“Woo—ah—!”

Sensing Kratos's unleashed power, Cerberus felt a terrifying force that made its very soul tremble.

My instinct was to run, but it was too late...

Because Kratos had already arrived in front of Cerberus!

His fist, imbued with a terrifying power that distorted space, slammed hard into the jaw of the dog's head in the middle!

"Crack!"

The sound of bones cracking was clearly audible!
The dog in the middle let out a shrill howl as the huge impact caused its entire body to flip backward!
"Ouch!"

Cerberus let out a wail, for the life force bestowed upon him by his Titan bloodline did not kill him.

Seeing this, Kratos lunged forward and unleashed a flurry of punches!
Left fist! Right fist!
He kept punching the three-headed dog in the head!

"Pfft!"

Blood and bits of flesh flew everywhere!
The dog's head on the left was smashed flat!
The dog's head on the right was torn apart by a violent force!
Finally, of course, comes the classic QTE ending from the God of War series.

Kratos leaped high into the air, his fists clenched together, like a meteorite falling.

It slammed down hard on the middle head of Cerberus, which was not quite dead yet!

"boom--!!!"

A loud bang!
The massive body of Cerberus was sent flying like a tattered sack by this ferocious blow!

It crashed into the tightly closed gates of the underworld!

"Bang Dang——!!!"

The seemingly indestructible gates of the underworld were actually smashed open by this immense force, denting inward, cracking, and finally bursting open with a deafening roar!

Countless red souls poured out of Cerberus's corpse and merged into Kratos's body.

He could clearly feel as if his limbs and bones were being washed by scorching magma!
Every cell is cheering, every cell is yearning!

That's the divine part of him awakening...

Along with it, there also grew the power known as the rotation of the magnetic field.

Kratos clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within him.

The joints crackled and popped, and the surrounding space distorted slightly due to the overflowing power.

"not enough!"

His gaze passed through the broken gate and landed on the darker, more expansive underworld beyond.

……

Such a huge commotion had already alarmed the entire underworld.

Especially at the moment Cerberus was killed and the gates of the underworld were violently blasted open.

Deep within the underworld, inside a palace composed of countless white bones and solidified lava.

The figure seated on the throne forged from countless tormented souls suddenly opened its eyes.

Those were eyes burning with a ghostly blue flame, filled with death, cruelty, and endless majesty.

Hades, the god of the underworld!

His face was as gloomy as ice that had stood for millennia.

"who is it……"

"Who dares to be so insolent in my country?!"

A cold, angry voice echoed through the hall, making the shadowy figures standing around tremble.

He sensed the presence of the intruder.

It was violent and filled with a destructive urge.

There is also a... unfamiliar force...

"..."

Hades took a deep breath, then rose from his throne and vanished from the spot.

He had decided to show the invaders the majesty of the Lord of the Underworld...

As soon as Kratos stepped through the gates of the underworld, a terrifying, suffocating pressure descended from the sky!

The sky instantly turned pitch black, and an endless aura of death coalesced.

A towering and imposing figure slowly materialized before Kratos.

He was clad in jet-black armor, wielding a scythe that exuded soul-stealing power, and surrounded by countless wailing phantoms of souls.

It is Hades, the ruler of the underworld!

"So it was you, Spartan."

You smell like a living person... and there's a nauseating power about you that doesn't belong to this world.

You destroyed my ferry, killed my watchdog, and smashed my gate.

Tell me, what gave you such audacity?!

Hades was taken aback when he saw Kratos, because it was this bald Spartan who had caused him to lose the final contest years ago.

I can't believe this guy actually dared to trespass into his underworld!
"Hades, give me back my daughter."

Kratos raised his head and looked directly at the powerful god.

Even facing the divine might of Hades, his gaze remained unwavering. Red battle aura began to gather around his body…

"daughter?"

Hades was taken aback, not immediately understanding what Kratos meant.

What is his relationship with the other party's daughter?
"Since you're unwilling, then die!"

Seeing this, Kratos's long-suppressed anger erupted at this moment.

The force known as magnetic field rotation erupted at that moment, reaching a peak of 990,000 horsepower.

"Arrogant! Do you think you can defeat God like this?"

Then let you be condemned to eternal damnation!

Hades laughed in fury the moment his words fell.

Hades moved!
He swung his twin scythes out with a sudden, powerful motion, as if tearing through space, directly binding Kratos's fists.

"Hades! Do you think you can trap me like this?"

Kratos roared, gripping the chains with both hands, ready to wrestle with Hades.

"Ha~"

Upon hearing this, Hades laughed, his hoarse laughter echoing through the space.

Because his attack was not just aimed at the body, but at the soul.

The next moment, just as Kratos was about to unleash his power, a feeling of powerlessness suddenly surged up within him.

A strange attraction was slowly pulling Kratos's soul out of his body from the chains.

“Foolish Spartans, this is the price of angering the gods.”

I will imprison your soul in the coldest hell..."

Hades laughed upon seeing this, saying that this was the power of the King of the Underworld.

Even demigods with divine bloodlines are no exception...

"You think you can take my soul with something like this?!"

However, the next moment, accompanied by this angry shout, Kratos's crimson battle aura ignited fiercely.

This is an ability called Spartan Wrath in the God of War game. You can enter this state by accumulating rage, which will multiply your various basic abilities.

Not only that, but a force called magnetic field rotation also erupted at the same time...

The next moment, Kratos's soul suddenly returned to his body, and then he pulled with both arms.

"what?!"

Hades was caught off guard and was carried away by the force from his hand, flying towards Kratos.

But what awaited him was Kratos's full-force attack.

"Boom——!!!"

A violent explosion resounded in the underworld!

The shockwave of energy spread outwards, instantly tearing the nearby ground and wandering souls to shreds!

"puff!!"

Hades coughed up blood, but he did not die thanks to the life force of a god and the countless souls within him.

He had never been so badly injured since the battle of the Titans...

However, before he could recover, the two scythes that originally belonged to him flew down from above and pierced through his hands.

Then a figure fell from the sky and crashed into Hades' chest.

"Give me back my daughter!!!"

Kratos stood on Hades' chest and began to punch him repeatedly.

"you wanna die!"

Hades was utterly enraged, and his divine power surged forth like a tsunami!

In an instant, he broke free from the scythes piercing his hands and slapped Kratos away.

Hades, die!

However, a moment later, Kratos returned to the battlefield once again.

This time, he completely abandoned defense and started throwing punch after punch.

The two were locked in combat!
On one side, there's the Spartan Wrath combined with magnetic field power; on the other, there's Hades' divine position and the countless souls he's devoured within his body.

For a time, they were evenly matched, with Hades even having the upper hand on the field.

However, the outcome of this match was already decided, because the two men had completely different levels of understanding.

Why……

Looking at Kratos, who seemed to have gone mad, Hades had this thought for the first time.

The Spartan before them was undoubtedly very strong, perhaps even comparable to a god.

But why would I be willing to fight him to this extent...?
