Chapter 704 704: Busy
Caen had never suffered this humiliation, even when he fought against Janus in his younger years. It was as if he was standing against a mountain, who remained unaffected by everything he tossed at him.
Even after all that, Caen was only filled with hatred for Ryder.
"Close the portals and get out of this world, and I'll let you leave. That's the last bit of consideration I'll give you because of your family." Ryder's grip kept getting tighter around Caen's throat who couldn't even use his hands or legs at the moment to fight back or attack Caen.
Caen was going crazy in anger. He was so angry that he wanted to have all the Abyssal Beasts rush over to this world and raze it to the ground right before Ryder's eyes.
As if feeling Caen's emotions, the two Abyssal Beasts that Caen had called forth to kill the mortals also felt hatred for Ryder. Without a second thought, they both jumped at Ryder, one intending to bite his leg while the other intending to rip his head off.
Unfortunately, as soon as the two beasts came closer, they saw Ryder turn around. Ryder's eyes fell on the beasts, making the beasts feel as if they were facing death itself. Before they could even react, they felt a burning sensation inside their body.
In the fraction of a second, both their bodies exploded, their black blood splashing everywhere. The groups of blood that splashed towards Ryder was stopped by a barrier along the way. His clothes remained completely untouched.
He turned his attention back to Caen, who still hadn't been able to move a single finger. Caen was completely helpless, even with his Divinity since his instant healing was interrupted.
"I will leave!" Caen spoke with clenched teeth, feeling a humiliation like never before. He could have the Abyssal Beasts destroy half this world, but it was clear that before going to deal with the Abyssal Beasts, Ryder was going to kill him.
If he could at least move his hands and fight back, he wouldn't have worried, but he was quite helpless at the moment. He noted down this hatred deep in his heart. Even if not now, he swore to himself that he was going to destroy Ryder!
Ryder took a deep breath, calming down the turmoil in his heart. So many innocent people had lost their lives because of Caen, but he was still letting him go. This was a strange feeling, but deep inside, Caen was also his family.
"This will be your last chance." Ryder tossed Caen towards the other Young Gods who were just watching from a distance like spectators.
The Young Gods approached Caen, and some of them helped him up. The others opened a portal to another Lower World. At the moment, the most important thing was for Caen to recover. They also didn't want to be in the presence of Ryder, worried that Ryder might change his mind and kill them.
With others' help, Caen barely stood on the ground, feeling the pain coursing through his body.
He looked up at the Young Gods who had helped him, but there was no gratitude in his eyes, only simmering resentment. With their support, he managed to be on his feet, though his body still felt weak and battered from the encounter.
As the portal to another Lower World shimmered before him, Caen's eyes revealed lots of hatred and blood list. Ryder's face was deeply imprinted in his heart.
Part of him wanted to stay and face Ryder again, to prove that he was not defeated, but he knew that would be foolish. Ryder was on a level of power that Caen had never encountered before, and his current state was in no shape to challenge him again.
With a bitter taste in his mouth, Caen finally stepped through the portal, disappearing from that world with the other Young Gods.
The spatial portal soon closed. The Young Gods were long gone. However, strangely enough, the portals connectingto the Abyss on the sky were still completely clear.
Ryder turned his attention to the open portals, his gaze narrowing with concern. He wondered if Caen wasn't going to kill the Abyssal Portals in anger. If that was the case, he made up his mind that he was going to find the young man again and drag him back.
However, before that, he knew he had to act quickly to prevent the Abyssal Beasts from entering Earth. Caen might have left, but the threat still remained. Ryder clenched his fists, ready to face whatever came through those portals.
But just as he prepared himself for another battle, a surprising turn of events took place. The portals that connected to the Abyss started flickering, and then, one by one, they closed on their own. It was as if an unseen force was shutting them down.
"Even though he's stubborn, it looks like he still keeps his promise." Ryder let out a sigh. For a god, a promise they made was like the law of the world. If they went against their own promise, then it was no Despite all the hatred and anger, Caen had chosen not to unleash the Abyssal Beasts upon the world to keep his promise.
different than going against their own existence, which was no different than destroying their Divinity with their own hands.
Despite all the hatred and anger, Caen had chosen not to unleash the Abyssal Beasts upon the world to keep his promise.
Even though the immediate problems were solved, there was still a lot of mess left to deal with. It was clear that the news couldn't be suppressed anymore. Portals in the sky appeared all over the world. Anyone could have seen them. The entire situation was nothing less than a headache.
"Looks like I'll be quite busy in the next few days." He rubbed the back of his head in frustration
The area of this city was also in a mess. The once lively city was now no different than a Graveyard. Bodies could be seen all around the place.
