Chapter 1329 Cap 1327: Third stage part 3
The one who was selected as my opponent was the worst possible choice, he was a Minor God, his eyes were made of continuously burning fire, his body was silver as if it were made of metal and his hair seemed to be long strands of incandescent metal, his clothing it was just a pair of white cloth pants.
Just by looking at his appearance, I can deduce his Elemental Affinity being metal and fire at the very least, I cannot deny or confirm if there is a third element with which he has an affinity.
"I remember you, Natasha's brother, you ruined my tournament."?(Minor God)
"I don't remember ever meeting someone like you, no offense."?(I)
"I was one of the Gods who helped organize the God of War tournament, the one where you faced that Evil Goddess."?(Minor God)
"It was a good fight for someone her age, I can see Natasha's training in her fighting style."?(Minor God)
From the way he talks, he was able to see me fighting through the isolated space and the Territory where I fought the Evil Spirit Goddess.
"[Let the Fight Begin!!]" (Malakoi)
"< Divine Territory >" (Minor God)
"< Holy Duel Arena >" (Minor God)
"< Divine Incarnation: 34% >" (I)
As soon as the signal to start the fight was heard, he launched his Territory, I didn't even try to use my Territory as it would be useless, there is no way to compete in terms of dominance against a true God, if I did that I would only be at a disadvantage when If my Territory were crushed, I would receive a wound that would be difficult to heal.
Instead of wasting my time on something that wouldn't work, I activated all my power from the beginning, one of the things I learned in my Training was to control my Divine power, I was always becoming a version of a giant Divine Dragon because in my head was the most powerful, but a Divine Incarnation is not something so simple.
This time my body grew a little as my body was coated in Star Crystal Scales forming a natural armor on my body, my hair became ethereal as my horns grew, and my head became that of a Dragon as the symbol of an Eclipse appeared on my forehead.
The power passing through my body was incredible, but I didn't let myself be carried away by the feeling of power, the whole time I was observing my surroundings and my opponent who seemed to be waiting for the brief moment when my body changed.
I can't tell if this is out of politeness waiting for me to reach my full power before facing him or that Lesser God noticed that I delayed my transformation as a bait for him to attack, maybe he noticed my trap or not, none of that makes a difference now.
I also paid attention to the surroundings, his territory was an Arena with a black floor looking like rough metal, around the Arena it looked like an ancient combat field.
"Let's see what the Blood Goddess's fourth Living Calamity can do."?(Minor God)
He disappeared into the air, but it wasn't a teleportation, it was weak but I noticed traces of his movement coming towards me, I almost couldn't see him and react, his fist coming towards my face meets my own fist hitting the side, dodging its trajectory.
His punch sent a stream of air past my head, missing its target while my knee hitting his body seemed to have done nothing to him.
"You're going to need more than that!"?(Minor God)
He slaps me in the stomach with his other hand, sending me flying, but I use my wings to steady myself, which doesn't help when he comes to my side, throwing a punch that would have sent me flying again if he hadn't wrapped my tail around his back leg using its strength to throw him off balance as I pull myself towards him.
"< Breath of Chaos >" (I)
I open my jaws inches from his face launching a breath attack that only hits for half a second before another punch hits my chin forcing me to close my mouth.
"< Fist of the Victorious God >" (Minor God)
His fist was glowing as it was going to hit me, I crossed my arms in front of me before closing my wings forward as well, but as soon as the blow hit it made a hole in my wings before hitting my arms making the bones creak as if they were almost breaking, his power going through my entire body as I was thrown once again spitting a large amount of blood into his body.
This time I intended to create a space between us, but as soon as I left the arena the ancient weapons from the surrounding battlefield rose from the earth coming towards me while taking the form of new weapons, a pure murderous intent in each weapon aimed at me.
I jumped back into the arena and the weapons fell to the ground once again with ancient appearances, apparently, the Territory of this Minor God punishes leaving the arena, forcing a Duel.
"Interesting place of yours."(I)
"In a Duel, there is no step back, there is no place to run, hide or deny what has already started."(Minor God)
"< Holy Summon: Eclipse Sword >" (I)
"< Sword That Breaks Nations >" (Minor God)
He was already running towards me, it was as if his every step was worth a quick attack, I barely had time to summon the Eclipse Sword, the hilt of the sword comes out of a crack in space when the car in my hands is already charging towards the opponent by intercepting him in the middle of the path.
I cut towards him horizontally while he had both hands raised as if holding the hilt of an invisible sword, a long silver sword with an Illusionary incandescent blade appears in his hands as he descends towards me vertically.
Our two swords collide, but not head-on, I tilted my sword making his run to the side while I transform my body for a thrust aimed at his chest.
He releases one hand from his sword to punch my sword blade aside, missing his target before his foot kicks me back once more as blood comes out of my mouth on top of him.
"Just give up, your power doesn't compare to mine."(Minor God)
"I know, you're a lot stronger than me, but what if I do this."(I)
"< Divine Eclipse Curse Ritual: Consumer of Existences >" (I)
The blood in which the Lesser God's body was bathed more than once was my blood, I realized that he never let my blood enter his body, clearly, he was wary of it after what I did in my last combat, someone must have told him about it, but he was naive to think he was safe with just that leaving my blood out.
I controlled my blood almost instantly creating Magic Circles with Spiritual Runes complementing it throughout his body, before he had time to react the Magic Ritual was activated using my blood as material.
The Essences of Blood and Chaos acting together as Starfire formed Dragons that drew all kinds of energies from him, be it life energy, magic, Ki, Holy Power, or Spiritual Power, everything was being sucked out of him through the Blood Essence before being refined and transformed by Starfire from my Chaos Essence into something mine, transforming its power into my power.
His power forming a flow of energy coming towards me heals all the damage he caused me, but of course, he didn't just stand still and be consumed by my technique, he was still a Minor God with power far above me.
He tried to get rid of the ritual marked on his body, but he was a God of War and battle, he had no purification or healing techniques, that was something I was sure of after everything I saw, so nothing he tried worked.
He might have been naive before, but he wasn't stupid, then he looked at me moving forward, one way to get rid of a curse was to end the one who cast the curse, in this case, me.
"You did good, now die!"(Minor God)
That was all the planning I could do after seeing the other fight, I realized that it was impossible to beat a Minor God head on even after all my training and advantage in the number of Essences, what I needed to do was use my creativity for a greater victory indirect.
"(Now it's going to be a battle of endurance as to whether I can last until the end or he will run out of energy first.)" (I)
He kept attacking me, his blows could summon all kinds of illusory weapons, and his body was immune to any kind of damage I could do to him.
In the end, all I could do was fight to resist, dodge what I couldn't resist, or bring what I could to deflect the blow, the fight became faster and more intense as time passed to the point where I couldn't pay attention to anything else My mind focused only on the opponent in front of me, his every move was important.
"(I will win!!!)" (I)
