Chapter 441: Chapter 391: Antaka Escapes, Kashigyakya Will Win! (Vote for Monthly Ticket!)
Kashigyakya looked up and burst into laughter.
This time his victory was utter and complete, next it was time to attack Earth and show those Asuras a thing or two.
Thinking thus, Kashigyakya moved his feet slightly, gently trampling the demon beneath them.
Stomp! Stomp!
In an instant, the body of the "Intoxication" demon began to shrink, until it was as large as a mountain range, prostrating itself atop a pile of ruins.
The Devas came one after another.
They widened their eyes, looking on with delight at the scene.
Wonderful!
"Such a huge demon!" The Fire God Agni suddenly flew over, lifted his head, staring at the gigantic creature before him, and couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
The Water God Varuna was also deeply moved.
"So big, and its scent is so sweet!" Varuna said.
The Wind God Vayu’s gaze, however, fell upon Kashigyakya.
"Kashigyakya is indeed so powerful, he truly possesses Indra’s martial prowess!" Vayu exclaimed in awe.
"Yes indeed!" Sun God Surya also nodded his head, quickly agreeing.
Surrounded by the Devas and the gigantic demon, they couldn’t help but feel waves of admiration welling up within them.
Worthy disciple of Indra!
Thinking so, the Fire God Agni stepped forward eagerly and said with a laugh, "Such a huge demon, let’s purify it quickly!"
Sizzle! Sizzle!
He rubbed his palms together lightly, sparks constantly popping out as he moved them up and down.
Upon hearing this, Kashigyakya waved his hand.
He looked down at the prostrate demon and laughed heartily in a low voice.
"Since this demon has submitted, as the victor, naturally I may dispose of it as I wish!"
"I shall demonstrate the Heavenly Emperor’s benevolence by taking it under my command."
"This demon will also become a powerful asset in our attack on Earth!" Kashigyakya declared.
Hearing this, the Devas exchanged glances, their eyes shining brightly.
Makes sense!
Their eyes shifted, staring intently at the enormous creature before them, quite pleased in heart.
Such a massive demon was perfect to demonstrate the majesty of the Heavenly Realm!
As the Devas gazed unblinkingly,
The falling Soma Wine rain was no more, its sweet fragrance gone, replaced by a field of beautiful lotus flowers.
Countless pure blue lotus petals descended from the sky.
Whoosh!
A bright light, like that of the dawn, emerged with them.
Eventually, it coalesced into the figure of one with four arms, riding upon a golden bird, appearing before Kashigyakya and the many Devas.
This figure was tall and straight, with a handsomely featured face.
He stood atop the golden-winged Garuda.
Dressed in splendid attire that shimmered with beautiful golden light, the ’Chostubat’ gemstone on his chest radiated light in all directions, and the golden Holy Belt fluttered with the wild wind, rippling out behind him.
"Narayana!"
Sun God Surya looked up, his eyes focused, shook his head slightly, and said reverently.
"Praise Narayana!"
"Om—Praise Narayana!"
The Fire God Agni, Wind God Vayu, and Water God Varuna all placed their hands together in devotion, praising the Protector God Vishnu who had appeared in the Heavenly Realm.
Kashigyakya’s gaze swept around.
Wherever his eyes touched, all the Devas turned to look towards Vishnu, and so did the Gandharva Army.
Even his teacher’s dog Sarameya was!
"!!!"
The expression on Kashigyakya’s face darkened slightly.
The Devas should have been praising him, for it was he who had saved the Heavenly Realm, it was he who had protected the Devas, it was he who had defeated the Intoxication demon.
He stood atop the demon’s head, ready to receive the adulations of the many Devas.
But then the Protector God Vishnu came along and stole his thunder.
All the Devas were now flocking to praise Vishnu.
This was too much!
Kashigyakya’s form shifted slightly as he turned to look at Protector God Vishnu and then slowly raised his arms, palms pressed together, and began to speak in a stiff tone.
"Praise Narayana!"
Kashigyakya said.
Vishnu nodded slightly.
There was a subtle glisten in his clear lotus-like eyes as he watched Kashigyakya, a faint smile on his face.
The next moment, his gaze gradually moved downward to the massive Intoxication demon.
Vishnu’s expression became stern.
And he spoke!
"Kashigyakya!"
"This Intoxication demon is unlike the others; it would be best to place him in a safe place!"
"Do not attempt to control him!"
Vishnu advised calmly.
Upon hearing this, Kashigyakya knit his brows slightly.
His palms that had been pressed together slowly fell, and he looked up at Narayana, his expression solemn.
"Why?"
Kashigyakya challenged.
Vishnu’s gaze flickered as he said, "The power of this Intoxication demon, if it goes out of control, will spread through the Three Realms. Kashigyakya, you’d better..."
Upon hearing this, Kashigyakya’s expression grew colder.
He directly interrupted Vishnu’s words.
"Uncle!"
"I call you uncle because you are my mother’s brother!"
"But now..."
"I am the War God, the Heavenly Emperor, the strongest warrior in this world!"
"I think you should show me respect!"
Kashigyakya declared.
Boom!
Rumble!
As Kashigyakya spoke, the Intoxication demon below him sprawled out and let out a thunderous roar, like the sound of thunder, instantly resonating in the Heavenly Realm.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Devas turned their gazes in unison, looking at Kashigyakya in astonishment.
Sun God Surya bowed his head slightly, his lips twitching, but he was unable to utter a single word.
Wind God Vayu’s eyes widened, his face also showing shock.
"Kashigyakya..."
Vayu murmured to himself.
"Too arrogant!"
Fire God Agni muttered under his breath.
Water God Varuna’s eyes were wide with tension as he said, "He dares to defy Narayana!"
Before all eyes.
Vishnu spoke again, "Kashigyakya, do not be blinded by arrogance!"
