Chapter 79 - You Don't Want Atreus Either...~

Upon hearing Diana's words, Ron's lips twitched a few times—you, God of War, why do I feel a little familiar with you?

Thinking to himself, Ron asked, "Is there a human head tucked into his belt?"

"have."

Somewhat surprised that Ron knew about this, Diana said, "It's a head from Northern Europe. Although it's not very clear, this summoned war god certainly possessed immense power. It's just a pity he was a coward, completely unwilling to face battle."

As she spoke, Diana curled her lip in disgust, seemingly feeling sorry that such powerful strength had fallen into the hands of such a weak person who was passively avoiding battle.

Ron glanced at Diana in response.

When this guy is belligerent, you have no idea how belligerent he can be. Ares proclaimed himself invincible, and even Zeus would have to exclaim, "He's got a cheat code!"

With a severed head tucked into his waistband and an axe as his weapon... Although he couldn't be certain, Ron could roughly guess what state this war god was in now.

"Take me to see him," Ron said. "Let's see if he's the one I'm looking for."

Ron still remembers that one of the reasons he came to this world was because a member of a chosen team accidentally fell into this world during the descent due to the conjunction of the celestial spheres.

Now it seems obvious that this God of War is the one I've been looking for... Thinking about it this way, perhaps Ciri really can't be blamed for this. Because the female warriors of Paradise Island did indeed summon a genuine God of War.

Kratos, the God of War. One of the most quintessential warriors in single-player games, he was killed countless times, only to rise again from the underworld each time. Finally, after slaughtering countless gods and leaving all hope for humanity on Mount Olympus, he embarked on a long journey, departing from the Greek world.

Thinking to himself, Ron added, "Whether your world has a future or not may depend on this cowardly war god you speak of."

Upon hearing this, Diana glanced at Ron in disbelief, but after thinking for a moment, she didn't say anything more. She just snorted and then turned around and led Ron toward the mountains in the distance of Paradise Island.

Before long, the group arrived at an altar. Although it was called an altar, it was actually a large valley.

"This is where the ceremony was held on Paradise Island. After we discovered that the power of the divine realm was gradually fading away, we held a grand ceremony to seek the protection of the gods."

Diana crossed her arms and said, "But for some reason, the last person to appear was someone I'd never heard of before... I hope you're telling the truth, but I don't think a cowardly coward can save anything."

The God Realm, one of the seven fundamental forces of the DC Universe, is similar to the Infinity Stones, except that it does not have a stable physical form, but exists as a conscious concept within the DC multiverse.

The Speed ​​Force is the force that drives the progression of time and space in the DC Universe. The Realm of Gods is the source of all divine power in the DC Universe and the root of all magic. All gods, demons, and angels in the DC Universe originate from the Realm of Gods.

The realm of gods is far removed from this world, so ordinary people are not greatly affected. However, gods, divine creations, and magicians feel the effects more clearly. It is only because the divine force field of Paradise Island can continuously provide the accumulated divine power that these female warriors of Paradise Island might become no different from ordinary mortals.

However, even with abundant divine power, the current unlimited use of divine power will eventually run out. Especially since Paradise Island needs to guard against threats from beneath the sea, activating divine power is unavoidable in order to maintain sufficient combat capabilities.

Without supplies, their remaining divinity dwindled, which explains why Diana, the war lord who worshipped Ares, was so easy to talk to—it was clear that Diana hadn't become more agreeable, but rather that she had brought Ron here with a "nothing to lose" mentality.

Reaching the top of the valley, Diana said coldly, "Coward! Come out! Someone's looking for you!"

Ron could understand the disgust Diana expressed towards Kratos.

From Themyscira's perspective, they had no idea about Kratos, the God of War. All they knew was Ares, the God of War. In this situation, to save Themyscira, they summoned the God of War, only to be met with an unfamiliar bald Norseman, and whose name wasn't Tyr...

This sudden despair and resentment is like getting off a train and breathing in fresh air, only to hear "Bluetooth connection lost" in your headphones as the train starts moving and roars northward.

But to be fair...

"You're already lucky." Looking down at the valley below, Ron said with a hint of emotion, "If it had been any earlier, Paradise Island might have ceased to exist the moment he was summoned here."

What is Paradise Island? It is the place of divine favor of the Greek gods in the DC universe. And that's why Paradise Island is filled with traces related to the Greek gods.

In this scenario, Kratos would have already retired to Northern Europe. If we were in the timeline where Kratos was still in Greece, the hot-tempered Kratos would probably be wielding the Chaos Blade without Diana needing to say much.

Diana seemed somewhat puzzled by Ron's words, but ultimately just scoffed dismissively, clearly not taking them to heart.

Ron, unhurried, arrived at the top of the valley and softly called out, "Kratos."

"..."

Ron's voice wasn't loud, but it carried clearly throughout the Ritual Valley. A moment later, a burly, bald man emerged from a cave in the valley. He carried an axe on his back, and on his left wrist was a wooden mechanical shield similar to the Sekiro Umbrella.

Although it's called a mechanical shield, in terms of quality and everything else, the two are incomparable.

He raised his head and looked at Ron. His entire body was deathly pale, and the once bright red tattoos had faded and become mottled with the passage of time. If there was anything that hadn't changed, it was Kratos's eyes... His eyes held a great deal of suppressed emotion: anger, resentment, urgency, and tension.

But in the end, looking at Ron, Kratos simply said in a deep voice:

Do you know me?

"I came into this world to find you."

"Take me back."

Kratos's words were quite straightforward. Having lost all interest after learning Ron's background, he immediately and decisively said, "I don't care about any system or agreement. Get me out of here and let me go back to where I came from."

"Don't rush to refuse," Ron said. "Actually, I quite understand that you're not in a good mental state right now. To be honest, if I had heard about so many generous offers but ended up in such a harsh world, I wouldn't be able to accept it either."

What does this feeling feel like? To summarize it in four sentences:

I've time-traveled? And I'm weak and coughing constantly?

It looks like ancient times. I must use advanced knowledge to live a good life.

Moreover, my wife is beautiful, virtuous, and capable of managing the household chores; she even feeds me my medicine.

You call me Dalang?

Although it sounds a bit strange, Ron is somewhat certain that Kratos probably agreed for similar reasons to Geralt.

When Geralt was invited by the group, hearing that he could fulfill those irreparable regrets, he thought it was a joke from his sorcerer friend and casually agreed. Kratos, on the other hand, had even more regrets than Geralt. Killed time and time again, rising from the underworld time and time again, after experiencing all the hardships, he saw through these tedious tricks and ultimately chose to leave hope to humanity…

On this thorny path, Kratos' mother Callisto, wife Lysander, daughter Calienby, brother Deimos... all those he once deeply loved were either killed by the gods or by Kratos himself. His deathly pale skin was stained with the ashes of his first wife and daughter.

If given a chance to start over, no one would be more eager to change everything than Kratos.

While it's impossible to determine whether Kratos responded casually like Geralt or genuinely chose to respond with hope, one thing is certain: when Kratos saw the person who promised him a bright future throw him into such a world, all he felt was mockery and unprecedented rage.

but……

"Atreus".

Upon hearing those four words, Kratos's gaze sharpened. He then gripped his axe tightly, pointing it at Ron and saying, "How do you know that name...? Answer me!"

"Don't rush," Ron said. "Nordic Europe isn't a suitable place for a young man to grow up. You still have Mimir's head at your waist; you must have already embarked on the path to fulfill your second wife's last wish, right?"

"Looks like you really know a lot, even my name. That's amazing!" Kratos's Mimir, hanging from his waist, peeked out from under the silk cloth, looking at Ron with a curious, sidelong glance.

"It seems the voice Kratos heard was real. However, this world isn't as hopeless as it appears. Has something happened?"

"Something did happen, but that's not the important thing."

Ron said, "Atreus is growing up, but if I may be so bold, his birth also marks the end of the Norse world. And the Asgardian gods of the Norse will not stand idly by and watch all this happen."

"You don't want what happened to you in Greece to happen to Atreus, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Kratos's eyes flickered a few times, then he exhaled a heavy breath:

"Go on."
