At the same time, purple lightning and meteors rained down from the purple thunderclouds that were also gathering in the sky, striking Tiamat. Although they could not harm the mother goddess, they did slow her down.
Far away, directly above Uruk, the dragon-serpent, whose size had expanded from the original temple to encompass the entire city, reappeared. It emitted magical breath from its mouth, which gradually spread and eventually transformed into a purple sea of magic, sweeping across the vast distance and forcefully withstanding Tiamat's chaotic tide.
Orpheus floated about a hundred meters in front of Tiamat, the red patterns on his robe shimmering with dazzling light, his arms outstretched, facing Tiamat.
"Did you suppress Tiamat's divine power with magic alone? Is it really possible to do such a thing...?"
The doctor muttered to himself over the communicator.
What is happening now is not the result of manipulating nature with any kind of magic.
It simulates the power of nature simply through magic.
This would naturally increase the required power exponentially, but the power would also increase many times over.
Orpheus gazed solemnly at the enormous mother goddess before him.
This was the first time she had truly used her full strength.
In the past, he limited his power because he was afraid of waking up the monster in front of him.
Even in the Underworld, the lack of Infinity caused an imbalance in the power within her body. Even with the Mythical Mystic Code, the computational power required to control energy increased exponentially. However, after returning to the mortal world, without the barrier of the world, Orpheus was able to directly extract power from her Infinity, almost equivalent to having the power of her prime. Since Tiamat has already awakened, there is naturally no need to be afraid of waking her up.
However, the enemy before her was the strongest she had ever seen in her life, apart from Prayer and the Great Red... This was only because her offensive power was not actually very high in nature. If she were to go all out, this Mother Goddess might be even stronger than the Great Red (I personally feel that Tiamat was quite lenient in Chapter 7), especially after thinking that Merlin was killed by Tiamat in a dream.
Fortunately, aside from the Chaos Tide, which is essentially an instinct, Tiamat hardly used any other powers. Otherwise, if they had really fought with all their might, Orpheus would probably have had a hard time gaining the upper hand and wouldn't have been able to protect Uruk.
Even though Orpheus seems to have the upper hand now, it's only an illusion. He's only able to do this because the Mother Goddess has no intention of fighting back. Orpheus's attacks have no effect other than slowing down her.
“Aaaaaaaa───”
Seeing the opponent stubbornly withstand the dense barrage of bullets that could annihilate the entire Mesopotamia several times over, Orpheus frowned and then made a loose clenching motion with his hands.
Then, just as the words suggest, heaven and earth shattered.
Space became chaotic, the boundary between heaven and earth seemed to blur, thunderclouds were cut into pieces, and the earth was broken into pieces that floated up, with black mud cascading down like waterfalls.
When Tiamat took another step forward, Orpheus's eyes narrowed, and his loosely clenched hand clenched down tightly!
The next moment, the ground and thunderclouds shattered, and a thick purple beam of light appeared out of thin air without warning, enveloping Tiamat directly.
“Aaaaaaa───!”
Tiamat's cry rang out again, this time finally tinged with pain!
"Hey, just this one attack's magical power alone is more than half of Tiamat's body's..."
Having avoided the aftershocks at the edge of the battlefield, the doctor's voice rang out, still shaken.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a situation. Orpheus's efficiency in using magic was actually not high, but he managed to increase the power to an immeasurable level by sheer quantity.
Even more terrifying is that, even though he has already consumed more than one and a half times the magical power of Tiamat, Orpheus shows no signs of weakness whatsoever.
Whether in his past or present life, he had no idea that such a being existed, capable of using the creator god as a unit of measurement!
Orpheus, of course, had no time to pay attention to Roman's surprise.
If energy lifeforms didn't lack sweat glands, she would probably be covered in cold sweat by now.
Tiamat's power was far greater than she had imagined. Even though she was still continuously inputting energy, the beam of light was already on the verge of collapse.
The next moment, a powerful force suddenly erupted from the pillar of light. The energy pillar, with its extremely high density, couldn't even last half a second before it exploded.
At the same time, a dark red beam of light suddenly shot out from Tiamat's brow and pierced through Orpheus's body in the blink of an eye!
"Little Orpheus?!"
Ritsuka stepped forward in a panic, but was pulled back by Quetzalcoatl.
"Calm down and take a closer look."
Ritsuka then realized that Orpheus's body had become incredibly ethereal at some point, and that the beam of light had left no trace on her body after it disappeared.
Using a blurring technique, Orpheus dodged Tiamat's sniping by a difference of hundreds or even tens of millions of milliseconds. He opened his tightly clenched hands, his left hand still facing Tiamat, while his right hand was placed casually beside him.
Then, the dragon-serpent above Uruk suddenly increased its output, and the ocean of magic overwhelmed the tide of chaos, surging to Tiamat's feet.
Orpheus's left hand clenched again, and in response to her movement, a massive surge of magic swept up, enveloping Tiamat's body.
At the same time, the magical power that had just erupted from the explosion of the pillar of light was rapidly condensing in Orpheus's right hand.
“Aaaaaaa───”
The magic enveloping her body failed to stop her steps. Tiamat took another step forward, despite the ongoing meteors and lightning... two steps... three steps... three and a half steps... and then the overwhelming magical restraints were finally broken free by the Mother Goddess of Creation.
Just then, Orpheus hurled the enormous sphere, which had blotted out the sky, at Tiamat!
“Aaaaaa───”
The strong momentum stopped Tiamat's already unsteady steps, which had been halfway through, and then forced her back five steps.
This is the first time Tiamat has retreated!
Then, the giant sphere exploded, and the shockwave swept across half of Mesopotamia until it was stopped by the barrier at Uruk.
Orpheus was able to breathe a sigh of relief even though the Mother Goddess of Creation had almost returned to the starting point.
She could sense that Tiamat's resistance to her power was growing stronger.
Is this the adaptability of the Mother Goddess of Creation?
Although the speed is very slow, and the perfect characteristics of the Ouroboros allow Orpheus's strength to gradually increase with the battle, this will cause the scope of the battle to become larger and larger. Even if Uruk is protected by the barrier, her people will probably not be able to survive on the 'Uruk Island'.
Orpheus frowned as he watched Tiamat's body, shattered by the blast yet rapidly regenerating.
Is it a combination of the creator god and the evil of humanity...?
It seems that direct confrontation is not feasible as expected, so we have to find another way.
"Let me seal you away from this world!"
Chapter 111 Exile
Orpheus first pushed forward with his left hand, and two purple beams of light fell diagonally from the horizon, then swept across Tiamat.
Her right hand was not idle either. Enduring the backlash, Orpheus's right hand once again erupted with a crimson wind that could cut through everything.
Then, similarly, under Orpheus's control, it slashed towards Tiamat!
After doing all this, Orpheus didn't even bother to check the result. He simply clasped his hands together heavily in front of his chest and then slightly opened them towards Tiamat.
The next moment, the Chaldea members felt a large space containing Orpheus and Tiamat... that didn't feel like it belonged to this world?
"This is... King Orpheus and Tiamat's reactions are weakening, what on earth is happening?"
Three slicing attacks struck Tiamat heavily, and even the Mother Goddess of Creation could not make any progress for a time.
But just as Orpheus was about to make her next move, she noticed that Tiamat had changed.
If Tiamat had seemed a bit dazed just moments ago, now she gave the impression that... she was serious!
Did you feel anything...?
In truth, actions like 'exile' might really have stepped on someone's landmine...
Although somewhat worried, Orpheus had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue, as the die was cast.
“Aaaaaaaaa───”
Tiamat suddenly unleashed a powerful aura, easily shattering both the pillar of light and the wind blades. At the same time, she fired another red ray from between her eyebrows, shooting straight at Orpheus!
Although Orpheus reacted, she was unable to become intangible, and as for dodging... she couldn't dodge an attack at the speed of light.
Without a doubt, as a creator-level deity, Tiamat's attack definitely contains elements capable of causing real damage to Orpheus. However, Orpheus also has her own confidence that as long as her infinity remains, even the greatest damage is within her tolerance range.
After this analysis, Orpheus continued his work, letting the blood-red beam of light pierce through his heart.
"Well……"
The intense pain acting on both mind and soul surged up simultaneously, causing Orpheus's body to tremble, but he did not stop.
Then, the light gathered again on Tiamat's brow.
'Want to come again...?'
Orpheus frowned, preparing himself.
While the damage is acceptable, it would be best to predict the rays in advance and avoid them.
But then she realized something was wrong.
Tiamat's gaze wasn't on her at that moment; instead, it was fixed on Uruk.
That target seems to be...
"Oops!"
For the first time in almost history, Orpheus's expression changed drastically.
But she had no chance to stop it; a thick beam of light was fired.
Then, in the blink of an eye, it pierced through the dragon and serpent above Uruk and struck the very center of the Ouroboros spell!
"Ang───"
The dragon-snake let out a mournful cry and vanished. At the same time, the Ouroboros spell also produced a rather ominous tremor.
"..."
Orpheus's expression returned to indifference. Without uttering a word, he clasped his slightly outstretched hands together tightly in front of Tiamat.
The next moment, the space that had just been isolated suddenly became incredibly surreal.
“Aaaaaaaa───”
Tiamat's voice still sounded like singing, but it was tinged with anxiety. Then she suddenly took a big step forward and bit down on Orpheus with her big mouth!
Orpheus remained motionless, watching the two rows of fangs draw closer and closer... and then, he slammed them shut!
Almost simultaneously, the world returned to normal.
The Chaldeans watched the scene with tension.
"Hey, what's going on? Tiamat's reaction has suddenly disappeared?"
A few seconds later, Roman's voice rang out.
