Hector's face was filled with deep resentment and disappointment, yet he said with unwavering determination, "Although I want to continue fighting alongside that man, this body of mine..."

Hector and the others had their vigorous life force taken away by Death's final power. As combatants, they were not protected by the Holy Sword's 'protection'. Now, the aging Hector was extremely weak. He understood that the battlefield ahead was beyond their reach, but Achilles, who was wielding the Holy Lance and received almost no impact, was able to.

Hector: "Only you can help him now! With the power of the Holy Lance—! Help him defeat the Demon God!"

After Hector finished speaking, the other heroes also turned their faith and gaze toward Achilles, placing all their hopes on Achilles' spear.

They believed that this man could fulfill their ideal of fighting alongside that man.

But Achilles only trembled slightly, without giving a clear reply: ...!

These people know nothing!

They were still begging me to kill them...

However, Achilles continued forward with heavy steps.

He knew that in Griffith's planned scenario, defeating the Demon King would require the combined power of the Holy Sword and the Holy Lance.

The enemy will absolutely not hold back. If he hesitates, they will not hesitate to turn into a storm and ravage the land, destroying all heroes and last hope, and truly reign supreme over Greece... launching an attack on Olympus.

A scene from memory flashed by—

Griffith said to him at that time, "Kill me. If you can't, I will become a true human being and undergo the final trial, destroying everything and climbing Mount Olympus."

Griffiths had two plans. One was a pre-arranged scenario where the hero would eventually defeat the demon king.

Another possibility is that the campaign fails, and the goal is to awaken humanity and teach them how to save themselves. However, in the trials, Ye will absolutely not hold back...

If even someone like him can't be defeated, then he will resort to even more extreme methods to solve all problems.

—Charge to Mount Olympus!! And wait on the throne of the god-king for countless new heroes to be born over tens of millions of years, to try to challenge themselves.

Until one day, someone will emerge as a savior and defeat him.

Before this, all of Greece and humanity would be under its rule, living according to its predetermined rules.

This is another kind of relative peace achieved through absolute violent suppression.

Even if it's to prevent that figure from sitting alone on the lonely throne for countless years, killing him here now is the best outcome.

The next moment, two figures wielding the holy spear and the holy sword arrived in front of them, facing the Demon King directly.

The next moment, Achilles and El Cid moved simultaneously.

Whoosh! Like a fleeting moment, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, it arrived in an instant.

Bang! The holy sword blade and the holy spear struck the Demon King's armor simultaneously, yet his figure didn't even flinch.

The heroes were thrilled and their eyes widened: — They hit the target!

Chapter 320 Destroying Planets, Not Enough, Not Enough, Not Enough, Maximum Output!

The demon king Talos finally abdicated his throne.

He slowly rose to his feet, enduring the attacks of the holy sword and the holy spear; the heroes were too hasty in their celebration.

The attack hit its target... but it did not achieve anything.

'What's going on?!'

Even the invincible holy sword, capable of cleaving through the body of a god with a single strike, was blocked.

Is Talos's armor really that tough?

The sharp-eyed heroes quickly discovered that the Holy Sword, Holy Lance, and armor on Talos's body were not actually in close contact; instead, they were striking something on a thin protective membrane that resembled spatial ripples.

Achilles, who had also realized this, once again brandished his spear, waiting for an opportunity to strike and kill.

Meanwhile, the holy sword continued its attack...

The holy spear and holy sword relentlessly bombarded Talos's body, but were blocked by countless black spatial ripples that lit up like raindrops.

Under this intense barrage of attacks, finally—

Even the naked eye could clearly see the presence of those ripples, densely gathered on the surface of Talos's body.

Demon King: "Have you had enough fun? Well then, it's my turn."

Just as the attack frequency of the Holy Lance and Holy Sword weakened, the Demon King suddenly raised his hand, and the terrifying death aura pressure sent the two flying.

They retreated. This was the first time the heroes had ever seen that golden figure be repelled. When facing the two gods, the opponent did not retreat, but now he was repelled.

Even such a powerful warrior was suppressed when facing the Demon King Talos?

And just as the heroes were feeling tense.

What made their hearts sink even more was the sight of the Demon King opening his arms and slowly rising from his throne. The next moment—!

Countless streams of black rain shot out from the cloak, sweeping across the sky and descending.

Like a rain of arrows, booming and thundering!

The black rain fell on the earth, and the heroes hurriedly took cover.

However, it would be a big mistake to think that what just happened was an attack.

That was simply a collision between a summoning spell and the earth...

The Black Knight army that had been wiped out earlier reappeared, and Talos leaped up and landed in the void, stepping on the shoulder of a Black Knight. His feet landed steadily in the sky, as if he were on the ground.

next moment--

The sky darkened.

The moment the heroes looked up, they took a deep breath and revealed horrified expressions.

One, two, three—!

...A total of five planets, one after another, fell from outer space and crashed down on the earth.

The flowing energy enveloped the planet, growing larger and larger until it transformed into five burning fireballs, like tiny suns falling from the starry sky.

...! !

Everyone gasped.

What is divine power? This must be divine power.

Because the golden figure had so easily defeated the two gods, people had almost forgotten the power of the gods.

This power, devoid of any mystery, simply reveals to humanity the destructive force known as 'God'.

This horrific scene, capable of destroying civilization, utterly stifles any courage to fight.

And the next moment——

Without a word, the Holy Sword's radiance suddenly intensified, transforming into an enormous sword of light that shot straight into the sky before sweeping across horizontally.

Boom boom boom~!!

Those planets were swept away and exploded in the sky, turning into enormous mushroom clouds. The holy sword then veered off course, carrying terrifying power as it slashed directly at the demon king on earth.

Bang~! ! !

Talos stretched out an arm and caught the holy sword, his five fingers firmly supporting the massive, mountain-like blade's radiance.

So strong!

People widened their eyes.

This scene also proved to the world that the Holy Sword also possesses the ability to unleash such astonishing power.

This enormous, radiant sword, stretching as far as the eye can see, is taller than the highest mountain many have ever seen. Even if it weren't a holy sword, but just an ordinary sculpture falling from the sky, the terrifying impact it would cause would be enough to terrify anyone just by imagining it. Not to mention the immense power of light contained within this sword.

But the same—

Talos's ability to catch such a blow with one hand was even more terrifying.

What kind of power was that? What kind of physical body?

As the incarnation of a god of destruction, he naturally fears no attack in a contest of pure physical strength.

With a snap, the power of the Holy Sword continued to increase, seemingly confirming the previously mentioned concept that it could grow stronger indefinitely.

Although Talos gripped the holy sword tightly, he seemed unable to free his hands to continue attacking, and under the intense pressure, he couldn't even dodge to the side.

The golden figure said nothing, but glanced slightly at where Achilles was.

Upon hearing this signal, Achilles trembled—! He gripped the holy spear tightly in his hand.

Is it now?

For someone as weak as me, to create an opportunity for me to strike you dead, you went to such lengths, creating this situation and staging a colossal lie for everyone to see!

Achilles, in an incredibly hoarse and heavy voice, finally—still shouted out—the only way Griffith had taught him to unleash the full power of the Holy Lance.

Mantra chanting—

"The Holy Lance—!"

He gripped the spear tightly with both hands, holding it firmly in his most proficient throwing posture, assuming the stance for his ultimate move.

Finally—with a soul-stirring scream, a heart-wrenching roar—it was unleashed: "Pull anchor!!"

boom--! !

The spiral of light suddenly began to spin on the gun.

Like a DNA spiral turning, it is the light of hope that connects people.

Even now, the Holy Lance, which can anchor the world, is being pulled down—just as the Holy Sword is being freed from its thirteen constraints.

Do not--

It should be said that it was precisely because he witnessed the 'beauty' of the Holy Sword's thirteen self-restraining bonds that he admired it—the Holy Lance, which had autonomously imposed constraints on itself, at this moment even without the need for a qualified wielder, cooperated by releasing all its limitations, allowing Achilles to briefly borrow its true power!

Then--

A colossal holy spear, whose brilliance rivaled that of the holy sword, appeared in the world, and in a throwing stance, it pierced through Achilles' hand.

Bang~! ! !

It's more accurate to say that it was smashed rather than thrown.

Before he could even release it, the massive spiral of light from the spear had already pressed down, but Talos blocked it with his other hand.

Achilles roared in fury, increasing his power!
