I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

As if he had heard the call, a longbow appeared in his hand in an instant.

The bow emitted a faint blue light, like the brightest moonlight in the night sky, and the bowstring was taut, as if it could tear the atmosphere apart at any moment.

This longbow is not only a weapon, but also an extension of Cassandra's soul; there is an unspeakable tacit understanding between the two.

The spirit dress was materialized.

Mingxian certainly didn't expect to fight Zeus, the king of gods, using Cassandra's inherent spirit armor; his goal was to bring Cassandra under the control of [Sword Chronicle].

"Hear my command! I am the lord of all armies, the sovereign of war between heaven and earth. I swear by this banner that when you suffer calamity and persecution, you need only recite the words I have given you, only sing the words of my victory. Cassandra, accept my protection!"

In this way, there's no need to worry about her getting in the way.

"Accept the punishment of the solitary thunder [Keraunos]!" Zeus chanted the ancient incantation, his hands moving like dancing butterflies, and with each thrust, a dazzling ball of lightning tore through the void, shooting towards Mingxian like a meteor.

Rumble!

The lightning ball was incredibly fast, as if it had transcended the constraints of time, arriving in front of Mingxian in an instant. It shook his body, causing it to crack and pop as if it were about to split open at any moment.

At this critical moment of life and death, Mingxian unleashed a fierce sword aura, like a dragon soaring through the heavens, and collided with the lightning ball.

The lightning ball gradually melted under the impact of the Kunlun sword energy, like morning mist being dispersed by the sun, yet it continued to roll in the void, growing larger and larger, like a snowball.

The lightning sphere grew larger, and the sword energy neutralized it.

Back and forth, the power of the lightning ball remained undiminished.

"Boy, all you do is defend. I can finish you off however I want." Zeus roared, unleashing the full power of his lightning, as if he wanted to devour the entire universe.

Rumble!

Instantly, tens of thousands of bolts of lightning tore through the void, pouring down like the wrath of a god, directly impacting the lightning sphere.

The lightning ball grew to the size of the distant city of Troy, resembling a colossal beast awakening, and with earth-shattering power, it crushed towards Mingxian.

Even the Kunlun sword energy could not completely counteract the power of the lightning ball, as if it were being choked by an invisible hand, and could only barely hold on.

Mingxian's figure appeared so small and fragile in front of the lightning ball, as if it could be completely crushed at any moment.

"What a huge misunderstanding... I'm not just good at defense."

Suddenly, a halo appeared on the back of Mingxian's head, like the first light of dawn. Thousands of golden rays burst forth from it, transforming into countless golden chains, like the fine strings that control a puppet, slowly lifting out a stunningly beautiful goddess.

She wore a fiery red dress, her face veiled by a light gauze, making her mysterious and unpredictable; her neck was long and slender, like a swan spreading its wings, her waist was slender and her figure was graceful and beautiful, with a cold and dark aura in her light and graceful movements.

"Nemesis!"

Zeus was horrified when he saw this.

"I return your name to you, Nemesis!"

As the zither's sound faded, it was like a gentle spring breeze, tender yet possessing an irresistible power. The iron chains wielded by the goddess of vengeance shattered instantly, turning into specks of golden light and vanishing without a trace.

Nemesis, seemingly impatient, held two fingers upright while the rest were bent into hooks, as if weaving a web of fate, and softly chanted the incantation: "Faced with wicked acts that endanger life, the goddess of vengeance, Nemesis, will unleash divine punishment! The calamity that attacked me is your suffering. May the sanction of justice fall upon you!"

In an instant, the thunderball, as large as a small mountain, froze on the spot. Then, it retreated along the trajectory it had taken moments before, as if time had reversed, and bounced back towards Zeus!

Rumble!

The ball of lightning, like a raging torrent, exploded violently with an aura of destruction.

The explosion was so powerful that it tore apart the surrounding space in an instant, with lightning crackling around it, as if the whole world was trembling.

Zeus, like a fragile kite swept away by a storm, was utterly unable to withstand this terrifying force and was blasted away, his body tracing a tragic arc in the air.

"I am free!"

Nemesis chuckled and, instead of leaving immediately, flew into the air to watch Zeus's miserable state with great interest.

Not a Hibiki: Chapter 115 Athena: What does this have to do with me?

Dust swirled in the air, and thunder still roared in our ears.

Zeus's body, struck by lightning, finally crashed heavily to the ground.

boom!

The majestic walls of Troy collapsed instantly after Thor's fall, and huge stones rolled down like a torrent of history, washing over the earth and the sea.

Even the most powerful lightning could not take the life of the God of Thunder.

"I see. The goddess of vengeance was not killed by you, but bound by the contract with Mithra and became your subordinate god. However, a contract with a god must be fair."

Zeus instantly transformed into a great eagle soaring through the sky, its wings like dark clouds obscuring the sun, its sharp gaze piercing through the clouds and locking onto the lonely figure below.

"Nemesis!"

The sound echoed through the heavens and earth like thunder, carrying an undeniable majesty.

"You seem to have gained some freedom, so why not abandon the binding contract and return to the sacred camp of our Olympus?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Nemesis's eyes widened suddenly. In an instant, chains gleaming with cold light appeared in the void, like messengers of the night, silently weaving the web of fate.

Contracts are finalized, and constraints descend!

"In the name of the King of the Olympians, I declare this contract invalid!"

The chains began to converge rapidly, like serpents reaching out, vying to coil around Nemesis, attempting to completely trap her in these invisible shackles.

Bang bang bang!

Just as they were about to touch, the chains exploded, turning into starlight that dissipated into the void.

As the king of the gods, Zeus displayed his multifaceted powers.

The goal is to shatter Nemesis's "contract of life," freeing him from his status as a subordinate god and restoring him to an independent deity!

Nemesis remained silent.

Although she harbored resentment towards Zeus, it was indeed somewhat humiliating to have her name stolen by the god-slayer and become a servant.

Why not take this opportunity to break free from Mithra's contract and regain your freedom?

She yearned for freedom.

How can a vengeful goddess be restrained?

Just as Nemesis hesitated, a rebuke suddenly rang in her ears: "Nemesis, although I was asked by the 'Pact of Fate' to come and persuade you, have you forgotten that Zeus once pursued you, wanting you to become His lover?"

Aphrodite regained her name, radiating a rosy glow, and cried out in a pitiful voice.

"If you have forgotten the grudges of the past, then look at the city of Troy before you. You were chased and transformed into a swan. Queen Leda of Sparta hid you in the garden of the palace, letting you hide among the flock of swans."

"In order to repay Leda's kindness, you promise to give her unborn daughter the love of a mother."

"That child is Helen, who is currently in Troy!"

Nemesis wavered for a moment. As the goddess of vengeance, she was fair, but at this moment she also showed signs of bias.

Zeus, sensing Nemesis's resistance, immediately spoke in a loud voice, "Nemesis, do not listen to the seductive words of the god of love! She is only being forced by the beast that kills the gods..."

The conversation ended abruptly halfway through.

Clang!

The golden arrow shot out like a meteor streaking across the sky, piercing straight through the wing of the great eagle that Zeus had transformed into.

The arrow was like an arrow of judgment, proclaiming the end of the God-King's former glory.

"Your Majesty, it seems you've forgotten the feeling of past battles; you're a bit sluggish."

Mingxian, holding a precious bow, his eyes cold, shot out a golden arrow that struck the eagle's wing like a thunderbolt.

The arrow seemed to carry endless fury, wanting to drag the God-King back to the battlefield of mortals.

"Lord Mingxian, the arrows are ready." Cassandra excitedly handed over a golden arrow, her eyes flashing with fear and a hint of excitement.

Extremely disrespectful! Utterly disrespectful.

He was actually helping others by attacking Zeus, the king of the gods!

He took the arrow, drew the bow, and nocked the arrow with fluid and elegant movements, like an artistic performance.

call out!

Another arrow pierced the air, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, aimed directly at the giant eagle's vitals.

The great eagle frantically dodged, its wings beating faster. The arrows followed its flight path like ghosts, and no matter how the eagle tried to evade, it could not escape the deadly threat.

"Ahhh!"

Struck by the golden arrow, the great eagle let out a shrill cry and swayed as it plummeted to the ground.

[Sword Chronicle] materialized Cassandra's soul as a longbow.

Holding this bow, one can foresee the future.

This is Apollo's blessing.

Using the "Mind's Eye" of the String Ringing and the instinct of a god-slayer, he captured Zeus's flight trajectory and accurately struck Zeus.

At the same time, [Thousand-Body Scorching Star] transferred the [Golden Sword] to Cassandra. As a priestess who wielded divine authority, Cassandra had insight into Zeus's [divinity] and crafted the [Golden Sword] into arrows, which she then handed to Mingxian.

call out!call out!call out!

The bowstrings were constantly drawn and arrows were shot, one after another, aimed directly at Zeus.

Upon landing, Zeus twisted his body and miraculously transformed into human form, with only two arrows firmly embedded in his body.

Just as he was about to use his divine power to pull out the arrow, ripples suddenly appeared in the surrounding space, and countless golden lines darted around like serpents, heading straight for him.

Golden arrows rained down like a sudden storm!

"This arrow is the sword of the war god Bahram, which can sever divine power and tear apart divine personality."

The voice of Metis echoed deep within Zeus's heart.

That was a whisper of wisdom, revealing the secret of the Golden Sword in a single sentence.

Zeus's gaze instantly deepened, as if he had transcended the boundaries of time and space and glimpsed the essence of all things.

"Ah, great sky god Uranus, can you feel the restlessness of my lonely soul?"

As Zeus finished speaking, the world suddenly changed dramatically.

"I am the son of Cronus, the embodiment of thunder, the summoner of rain clouds, the raging king. Boreas, the king of the North Wind, rushes from the far north, bringing the biting chill of ice and snow; Notos, the south wind, carries the ravages of storms, traversing layers of clouds; Zephyrus, the west wind, brings the twilight of dusk, causing all things to wither; Euros, the east wind, blows the sun's radiance, yet also takes away life."
