"I never expected to meet you here again. You even dared to defy us... I won't pursue this for the sake of our past friendship, though that's what I'd say. But it's all meaningless."

That's right, whether or not to punish him is meaningless to the boy named Kusanagi Godou.

At this moment, blood was seeping from his entire body, his face was extremely pale, and his life force was draining away at an extremely rapid rate.

"Fool, even if you try to cheat, humans can't possibly use the power of God!"

"Ha, you should have said this sooner..."

Although he said this, Kusanagi Godou had a helpless, bitter smile on his face.

"I didn't think that much about it, but leaving you alone isn't a solution either. Compared to that, is it really okay for you to keep standing there?"

Seeing Kusanagi Godou like this, Erica didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and point her sword at the Disobedient God once again.

"Hahahaha... My friend... I'll call you that one last time. My friend, you're truly ridiculously foolish. If you had turned the white horse directly towards me, there might have been a sliver of a chance to accomplish the Fool's great work. But you chose to save the witch's life? Interesting. You're quite interesting indeed. What a pity. If possible, I'd like to know if you could bring me something."

Ignoring Erica, the God of War laughed heartily.

"Bring me what I have been seeking..."

However, before the young war god could finish speaking, the white horse broke through the lightning and galloped towards the war god.

Thunder was merely the goat's full-force attack, while the white horse was not only one of the strongest incarnations of the God of War, but it also pressed down on the entire incarnation. Even if it was just a stolen use, breaking through Thunder would not be difficult.

However, its power has been greatly reduced, and it no longer has any remarkable effects.

Faced with such an attack, the God of War did not choose to dodge... even though he could have easily done so.

It would be a failure to retreat from an attack launched by humans.

With this thought in mind, the young war god now held a golden longsword with inscriptions in his hand.

This is a golden blade forged from knowledge, transforming wisdom into power.

"With the power of my words, let justice be revealed in the world! These incantations are powerful and eloquent, the sword of wisdom that beckons victory!"

The ensuing chanting can be interpreted as the God of War's attitude of taking the matter seriously.

Then, the sword blade formed from wisdom easily sliced ​​through the white horse's flames. The next second, the young war god grabbed the white horse's head and forcibly sucked the entire white horse into his body.

However, what emerged after the flames were cleaved apart was a girl wielding a rapier.

In response, the God of War simply brushed the Lion King's Heart aside with his golden sword, and then kicked it out.

boom!

"cough……"

She crashed heavily to the ground, and Erica weakly coughed up blood.

"A sneak attack, huh... If I could fall for something like this, I wouldn't deserve to call myself invincible."

Standing high in the sky, the young military genius smiled gently.

"How about it? Have you run out of ideas? If this is all you can do, then it's about time to end this."

"hateful……"

Kusanagi Godou knelt down weakly, panting heavily, his vision beginning to blur.

From beginning to end, the disobedient god simply flew high in the sky, looking down at them.

"Sorry, but you were the one who created this opportunity."

Erica struggled to her feet and gave the boy a wry smile.

In fact, she also knew that, just as the God of War had said, if she had attacked the God of War directly with the white horse, or preserved that power, she might have had a chance to fight back.

However, in order to save her, Kusanagi Godou chose to use this power.

Regardless of whether that person thought it through before doing it, Erica will not ignore this kindness.

Of course, whether there will be a chance to repay is another matter.

At least for now, it seems that neither of them has a future.

"At least, let's make one last struggle."

Erica stood up again and looked at the boy behind her.

Although in the eyes of those high and mighty beings, his actions were foolish and meaningless...

No, it's indeed meaningless. Given the current situation, it's impossible to drag this out until the Sword King arrives. Erica knows this better than anyone.

However, if even that boy, who knew nothing about this world, could choose to rush into the battlefield without hesitation after witnessing such a cataclysmic scene, then I should try even harder...

They were fully aware of the other party's strength and their own weakness.

Even so, Erica still chose to raise her sword again.

That's right. Even if that boy was foolish enough to do such a thing, I have no right to dismiss everything he did as meaningless.

Because, in front of the boy who had replaced the girl lying on the ground, the knight named Erica Brantri was still alive and still standing there.

Since that's the case, she has no reason to give up here.

"Hey, you bastard, how about we have a sword fight?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing the girl's sudden remark, the young military genius turned his gaze with a hint of interest.

Are you challenging me, witch?

"Well, since you claim to be an invincible war god, there's no reason for you to avoid a duel of this caliber, is there?"

"Hahahahaha..."

Shaking his head and laughing a few times, the young military genius gently landed on the ground.

"Alright, let's just consider it a warm-up. I'll trouble you to wait a little longer, God King."

"It's alright, I've thoroughly enjoyed watching such a tumultuous journey."

With a slight smile, the young war god pointed the golden sword directly at Erica.

"Be careful, witch. I'm itching to fight the God King. If you can't pique my interest, I'll end this battle quickly."

Clang!

Having blocked the rapier's thrust, the handsome war god revealed a ferocious smile.

"The force was decent, and the angle was almost perfect, but that's about it."

Before he could finish speaking, the girl's attack followed immediately.

The rapier transformed into a series of afterimages, enveloping the general's divine mound.

"Showy but impractical..."

Dodging the onslaught of swords like dancing amidst a storm of attacks, the God of War shook his head and offered his critique.

Clang──

With another clear ringing sound, the golden sword accurately deflected the slender sword into the air.

"Steel Lion, tear, crush, pierce!"

Erica narrowly avoided the ensuing slash with a backflip, chanting loudly.

With the crimson magic circle, the rapier spinning in the sky instantly transformed into a silver lion, roaring as it pounced on the God of War.

"Oh?"

Although it was supposed to be a swordsmanship contest, the God of War seemed unconcerned about the girl's petty tricks and slashed his golden sword at the silver lion.

With just one strike, the silver lion was blasted away by the impact of the slash.

Just then, a sound of something cutting through the air came from behind.

boom!

"what?!"

Reflexively parrying with his golden sword, the God of War watched in astonishment as a stone slab struck the golden blade.

The next moment, the golden sword grew fainter and fainter, and finally disappeared.

Turning his head, he saw the bloodless boy reveal a final smile before collapsing helplessly.

"This level..."

The girl was now unarmed and still had a chance to regroup.

Even when unexpected situations arise, the young military genius remains calm and composed.

However, in the very next second...

Puff!

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh seemed to echo throughout the entire coastline.

Chapter 198 Ruling Temporarily Suspended

The young war god stared blankly at the golden blade that had pierced through his chest.

"That's really true. I originally thought that boy had that potential, but I never expected to taste defeat here. No, it's more accurate to say that I lost to..."

Although he still has the strength to kill the person behind him... well, since he has lost, he might as well admit it.

Unexpectedly, and for the first time in history, the young war god shook his head with a somewhat relieved smile, then looked at the god king Mercator with a hint of sympathy.

"Fine, consider this a win for you."

Behind the God of War, Erica also stared blankly at the longsword she held in her hand, which had pierced through the God of War's chest.

She... seems to have... won?

She didn't even know where the sword in her hand, capable of easily slaying gods, came from; it simply appeared beside her and she grabbed it without thinking...

No, now is not the time to worry about such things.

Remembering the crucial blow that had just restrained the God of War, Erica hurriedly drew her longsword and ran to Kusanagi Godou's side, warily watching the God King Mercato who had been watching the battle from beginning to end.

"Really... it seems my presence isn't as strong as I thought."
