...….
Third Person P.O.V.
Hidden Portal Facility on the edge of the Solar System
From his reclined position on a comfy chair, Hector slowly opens his eyes
"Welco back, Master." Cortana is the first to greet him, and Nesis is on the side playing with a mobile console.
"How was Hell? Cool? Hehe~" Nesis attempts to make a joke that incites no reaction from him, but it falls flat.
The two won noticed just after two seconds that they were being ignored, and that doesn't bode well… Hector doesn't ignore them like that.
"..." But right now, the man just slowly sits up while staring forward, a small frown on his eyebrows, and his bangs cast a shadow over his eyes.
"Eeeh…" Nesis is hesitant to speak. This is a very rare occasion that makes even her a little afraid.
"Master? Did sothing happen?" Cortana doesn't have those qualms and asks directly.
"I'm going… Prepare my armor and open a portal." Hector stands up from his chair before extending his hand to Nesis. "Nesis."
The eyes of the two widen at his words.
Nesis absentmindedly takes his hand. "You are going? For real? Real body?" She can't believe this paranoid guy is doing that.
Still a little shocked, Cortana opens a portal to another facility. In front of Hector, an arc rises from the ground, and a portal appears. After traveling through it, he finds himself in a circular room. A small platform in front of him, where he walks to the edge and looks down to see a yoga ball-sized black glob floating.
The ball is being bombarded by colorful rays and being fed by different tals constantly, its semi-liquid form shaking and swirling.
Nesis jumps on Hector's back, arms around his neck, and he raises his arm to the glob of dark liquid.
The ball of semi-liquid starts moving in a tendril toward him at the sa ti Nesis starts sinking into his body. It covers his hand first, then his arm, and slowly moves to his torso and consequently his whole body.
"Master…" Cortana needs to say "Are you sure about this? You can still go with a clone. The Oga batch should be enough, no?" She is a little worried
"..." Hector says nothing for so ti. The liquid around his body slowly solidifies into a dark armor. When he pulls the Shaed from his inventory and drapes it over his shoulder, he finally speaks "I can give you so logical reasons, Cortana. I can say that using my real body is the best way to test my armor… I can say that I still have counterasures even if I die… It would be a worse loss than a simple clone, but nothing irreversible…"
"..."
"But it is just that sotis a man needs to put at risk his own skin. Nothing more, nothing less…" He declares, and the liquid finally closes around his head, forming a helt. "Open a portal to the last registered coordinate."
"And prepare the Heavy tal playlist."
...….
Now, Eidolon is in Hell, facing an army of demons, while clad in his Hell Nesis Armor. Despite the ever-changing nature of the piece of equipnt, it rembers the pre-established form without Nesis or Hector's input.
In the end, they kept the edgy design, obviously inspired by the Hellbat Armor, Keyblade Armors from Kingdom Hearts, the Berserker Armor of Guts, and many other fantasy armors, leaning heavily on the Dark Knight and Dark Overlord archetypes.
Despite the "dieval" inspiration, it's surreal how there are no hinges or straps exposed. It has an integrated design where the pieces overlap each other perfectly, fusing seamlessly. It's really more like a thick suit than armor, like Stark's Bleeding Edge Armor.
It's all black, and different from the Hellbat armor, the details and cracks are white instead of red. Those white lines run around his body to highlight his muscles; together with the relatively tight armor, it gives a strong impression. It's like a simplistic showing of human anatomy. Nothing exaggerated, just lines around his chest, abs, and articulations.
In the middle of his chest, there's a spinning white vortex, not that different from the Iron Man design; the white visor is sharp on the edges, and there are little blades on his forearms. All that, and adding the spikes on his shoulders, knees, knuckles, and feet… It is really a nacing visage.
In the top, instead of little bat ears or anything like that, there are thinner and taller spikes that surround his head in a simple crown.
The finishing touch is a "cri" that it would make Edna Mode rage and descend to Hell herself to beat him up… The Shaed, his famous cloak/mantle, which he always draped over his shoulders casually and loosely, is not fully fixed on his back. It is coming from his shoulderpads, the connection hidden beneath the armor.
Well, giving the malleable nature of the Shaed, it shouldn't be any trouble. The mantle will boost his fighting ability, not hinder it.
"Look, we are surrounded." Nesis laughs in his head
"Right? The poor bastards…" He chuckles confidently, even while facing legions and a Realm Lord.
"You haven't told us the plan yet, Master." Cortana says
"Very simple. Just defeating everyone and not letting the woman behind us die." He shrugs "By the way, you didn't need to co…"
"I will go wherever you go with your real body, Master." Cortana replies, firmly, making her stance clear.
"Okay…"
"A woman, huh? I'm not surprised…" Nesis' tone is full of amusent after spotting Satana. "Is that the succubus?"
"Yes."
"I thought the plan was to kill her…"
"It was a possibility… Still is…" Eidolon says casually "But right now, it wouldn't be right… Despite everything, she never hurt a human. But whatever, let's focus on what is in front of us, shall we?" he steps forward, ready to battle.
"Gonna use Conqueror's Haki? Make it more fun." Nesis urges him.
"Hmm…" After a little consideration, Eidolon decides to accept her suggestion. He raises his hand, and from the shadow of his arm, sothing starts appearing… No, not sothing… Soone…
You see, after the last Gacha, where Hector gained a vast amount of Power Boost Cards, he decided to start using so here and there. Of course, he kept more than half of it in case he needs to dump them on an item that will be essential in an ergency or sothing.
But, as much as a hoarder of consumables he is, he understands that without using the cards, they are useless. There are no drawbacks either, not like he needs to care about the logistics of boosting an item.
So he started upgrading his weapons a little… The example of the Sword of Actuation changing and evolving was the necessary argunt that made his mind. Initially, it was a blue blade with green vines, and now it is a red blade with purple vines… And said vines can cover his arm, in a piece of armor.
Hector then started upgrading his weapons one by one, using a card here, another there, observing if there were any changes, and at what point the changes occurred.
But he stopped at the first change, the one that surprised him so much that his face got stuck in a deadpan for an entire minute while Nesis laughed.
"Nevan…" He calls, and the figure of a woman appears from his shadow, one arm raised in the air, rising and spinning like a ballerina.
The Devil Arm Nevan, the weapon guitar, went from an Object Card to a Character Card. The purple guitar beca the demon-vampire woman, with an extrely high Relationship Loyalty, albeit not complete.
"Oh my, sweet master~ Finally calling for ?" Nevan, a redhead with green skin and only wearing a dark skirt, easily falls into Eidolon's arms
"It will be quick, then you can go back to sleep." He says, voice not affected by her honeyed words or the way she runs her finger on his helt.
"A quickie? Nothing against that… but you can use for longer, you know?" Her voice is full of innuendo.
"..." 'And Beowulf didn't beco a chira demon… The Essence is biased. Or maybe it's because she is weaker.' He ntally shakes his head at his luck with won. "I will play with you later, I just want to do a cool opening."
Eidolon grabs her extended arm with one hand, and his other arm goes around her slim waist, completely ignoring her boos that are only covered by her red hair.
"It's a promise then~" She giggles before a purple light covers her body.
The arm he was holding beca the arm of the guitar, and the rest of the body fell into his other hand.
"What are you doing?" Satana asks from behind him, her face showing a little confusion.
"Killing the crowd." he answers.
With those words, his shadow spread unnaturally, covering the size of a football field, and the eight structures rose from it like pillars appearing from the ocean.
They are not pillars; they are building-sized sound boxes, each of them pointing in eight different directions. He connected with them with a combination of his powers and raised his right arm.
BLAM
Then he strikes a note at the sa ti he flares his Haki. The eight giant sound boxes helped to propagate the note charged with his Conqueror's Haki. The air cracked with purple lightning that moved together with the invisible shockwave.
That note was paradoxically so loud that it made the whole place fall into silence, like it destroyed everyone's ears.The blast of Conqueror's Haki expanded vast, cracking the ground, raising the dust, moving away the red clouds…
Even Satana, who was not the target, the one in the "eye of the storm" and in the safest place, felt the pressure. It was the biggest blast that Eidolon used in his life.
So it didn't take long for the legion of demons to start falling from the sky like flies that are hit by insecticide. The demons on the ground are also falling, less dramatically, but unconscious nonetheless.
The Haki blast is so strong that it destroyed magic circles like it was shattering glass, it made so revert to their original forms, it disrupted their energy flow, and vomited blood… They try to block their ears, but it is useless.
Even the strong elite demons are sweating coldly, and hyperventilating…
Obviously, Molgotha and the others are not nearly as affected, and the Realm Lord even less than the others. But Minos and the leopard twins are pushed back, Asmodeus needed to seriously resist, and even Molgotha got serious when facing Eidolon's spirit manifested.
"Oh… more than I expected resisted." The hero pauses and puts Nevan away after so pats on her body, ignoring her pout. "I guess living in Hell made you guys tough."
Despite saying that, at least 80% of the hordes of demons are in no state to fight, even the ones that are awake had their spirit crushed and are looking at him with fear. But he was aiming for a perfect score, which is why he is disappointed.
"Who are you?" Minos finally asks, masking the uncertainty and unease in his voice. It is obvious that this newcor is more trouble than he is worth, and he still hasn't connected him with the demon sorcerer who was accompanying Satana.
"?" Eidolon stares at the Judge of the Underworld. He still hasn't decided if he is gonna connect this act with Eidolon, as it may invite unnecessary trouble on earth. "I don't think I'm cool enough to use Slayer, Hero of Hell, or anything like that… just call … Helltaker!" He crosses his arm as he says the na, his cape dramatically flapping with a wind that doesn't exist.
"Ugh…" Satana rolls her eyes behind him.
"Never heard of you… But you know where you are getting yourself into?" Minos asks, hoping that he will just leave and things don't get complicated.
"..." On the side, Asmodeus is narrowing his eyes at Eidolon… That feeling is back… It's similar but different, the sa feeling he had at that demon sorcerer.
But he saw that demon dying in his hands, without a doubt, and now what is obviously a human appeared.
The two are obviously connected… Was the demon sorcerer a subordinate of this one? Is there a hidden organization out there? And what is his connection with them? How could he have had this natural animosity with so many people? That is so unnatural…
"I don't care." Eidolon says to Minos before turning to everyone "I don't care about the circumstances, the context, or whatever… I saw a bunch of losers teaming against a woman and decided to help, because that is what heroes do."
"..." Satana looks at him strangely.
He continues and points at Minos "But the truth is that is a rare opportunity to whoop all of your asses in a place that I don't care about collateral damage." His pointy fingers trail around everyone present, slowly, like he is deciding sothing.
It goes to Asmodeus and then goes back to Minos. "You are dying first. Cortana, you know which song to play."
"Yes, I know." She replies with so amusent, and the giant sound boxes start blasting music.
DOOM Eternal OST - The Only Thing They Fear Is You (Extended Intro)
BOOM Whoosh
Eidolon doesn't waste ti dashing at Minos; he disappears from his spot in a not-so-subtle way, leaving behind a small explosion of rocks because of his sudden movent.
He doesn't care, though. No need to be sneaky when you're facing the enemy… and when you blitz him.
Minos only had the ti to look up; his demigod instincts only gave him enough reaction ti to see, upon close, the image of the armored Eidolon falling upon him with his right fist cocked and ready to strike. And his demigod reaction ti only allowed him to halfway raise his arms to block…
… consequently, he was not fast enough to stop the dark first to connect with his exposed cheek.
POW CRASH CRACK
The mont the punch landed, this part of Hell discovered that Eidolon's punches are not so simple.
It was more like he dropped a nuke than punched Minos. At the mont of contact, space bent, flattening the Judge, before cracks appeared in the air. Then cracks appear on the ground, and quickly beco a huge crater… Visually, one would not be able to distinguish Minos on that point, pressed together, almost fused with the ground.
The destruction propagates at neck-breaking speed and so far that it has reached the mountains on the horizon. The ground shakes, rumbles, and starts moving in waves like a sea.
The air beca inhospitable as the winds were strong enough to rip off the wings of the flying demons.
Even Satana needs to brace herself, moving up and down with the sea-like earth, the force distorting her features and making her hair move wildly.
"Ugh! What the fuck! Did he just break space?!!" She groans, struggling with the sudden increase in gravity.
It goes like that for torturing 10 seconds, but even after it ends, the effects last for a long ti. The whole ground is destroyed and turned over, the mountains far away are demolished, and the majority of the demons are buried.
Those are the lucky ones, because the ones that are too weak beco blood mist because of the shockwave, without even having the chance to have a burial.
And if this was only the dispersed force of the punch, they can't even imagine what happened with Minos, who was at the epicenter of all of this.
It didn't take long for the dust to settle and everyone - still alive - to see the figure of Eidolon again… Strangely, they only see his silhouette, catching him straightening up slowly.
A gust of wind made things clearer, and they are finally able to see Minos… And he is not well.
All of his limbs seem to be broken into at least three places, going in strange directions. His torso is cut and open in various places, too, organs and bones exposed, but the worst part is the area around his neck.
It's a pancake… from his nose down and till the upper part of his chest, his body becos two-dinsional, completely flat on the ground. His jaw is nowhere to be seen. It would be comically wide and stretched, if the sight was not horrifying.
It's like soone put him under a hydraulic press that only covered the area around his neck. That part is completely flat, while the rest looks abnormally bloated and disfigured because the blood was pushed in those areas, eventually bursting out when the skin can't hold it.
"Oh…" Eidolon shows so surprise. "Still alive? What great vitality… As expected from your people… You don't have the healing factor of the demons, but you have a sturdy body."
Minos twitches beneath him… He is lucky his brain and heart are sowhat intact. Only damaged instead of destroyed.
"Can you even co back from this? Like, eventually?" Eidolon asks genuinely, because the answer will decide if he is gonna kill Minos now.
Maybe it's rcy… Maybe…
"Uh… ah… ng…"
"... well, hold that thought while I deal with the rest." Eidolon then completely ignores Minos, like he were dirt beneath his feet. A not-so-wrong description at the mont.
He looks at the rest of his enemies. In truth, he was waiting for soone to attack him because he is pretty good with counterattacks, but it seems the Hell denizens don't care if their friends are being tortured in front of their eyes.
No one stepped forward to help Minos. Most of them have fearful and careful gazes… Those don't matter. Eidolon focused on the ones with the analyzing eyes, who are studying him calmly, even through this.
His eyes stop on Molgotha, the huge red demon, looking at him like he is just a slightly more interesting ant. It is also the demon he has less information too…
'He must be stronger than Belasco… I can be biased, but he shouldn't be stronger than Annihilus with the Cosmic Control Rod.' Annihilus was a much more famous character than whatever Molgotha is, so this is his initial judgnt. 'But I got Annihilus when he just acquired the Cosmic Control Rod, this is a full-fledged Realm Lord… But he is not on his Realm, right now.'
He raises his hand and summons a new weapon. 'I can win.'
In a flash of bright white-golden light, a small creature appeared on his palm.
"Oh, hello there, my good ister. Is the ti to our glorious debut?" The little creature is all white, from the top hat to his seemingly high-quality attire. It is an anthropomorphic creature with big eyes and a prominent upturned snout, holding a cane.
"Yes, Excalibur. Ti to work." Hector says, in his hand, his recent acquisition… Excalibur from the world of Soul Eater, a weapon with great power, is very effective against evil beings.
"I see, but I confess that I would have expected a more morable day to show off my great abilities for the first ti. Where is this place? The sky is red, and it looks empty, and I'm not even comnting on the state of the ground. There is no gardener around here? This ugly day reminds of a bad afternoon that I had in the XII century… it was Thursday… Or it was Tuesday? I think it was Friday. There are no clouds in the sky, I an… the sky was full of clouds, blocking the beautiful sunset. How do I know that it was beautiful? Bollocks! It's because every sunset was beautiful in that city. Everyone should have seen that sunset at least once in their lives. Watching the sun going down while enjoying a fragrant cup of tea… The tea of the Sixth Street, of course, nothing is better than that tea. You haven't drunk tea till you drink that tea, but it is not just anyone who can understand that subtle flavor. I rember this particular day when I enjoyed the rewards and sense of accomplishnt after a good fight. A fight to put on songs and helped shape my legend. It was sunny Monday… Or it was Wednesday? Maybe it's Sunday… But the shop was a teahouse that was open, so it should have been a Saturday… It was raining, and there were two enemies in front of us, or it was five? No, it was an even number… Six! No, no, no… it started with a 'T'... Twelve, yes, it was definitely twelve enemies. I thought two because there are two of us, and six because it is half of twelve, and how we divided them. It was definitely twelve. But it could also be twenty… Wait, twenty was the number of my favorite snack on the nu. I rember that I was always asked for the number twenty with the number 3… Or was it four? I rember that it was a good luck number… Lucky clovers have four leaves, so… it was definitely seven! Number seven! Number four was the table that we always sat… Or was it the ten? I rember that it was at the window, to see the sunset… or it was in the veranda? No, the rain would not let us sit outside and enjoy tea… But I rember that the rain stopped after our victory, like the skies were rewarding us. The sunlight bathes our bodies like divine providence…"
"...."
Hector is an incredibly patient man, but even he has his limits. He thought that the fact that he could use Excalibur without needing to follow his 1000 rules would make the weapon perfect, but it seems that the downside is still too big.
While the diminutive creature was talking, he slowly put it down, very close to Minos' ear.
"Eh… guard this enemy, Excalibur." Hector delivers the Judge of the Underworld a horrific punishnt. "It is a very important job."
"Of course, ister." Excalibur raises his top hat at him "I just rembered that it was indeed on a Friday…" He starts talking to Minos.
"..." Hector steps a little away from the creature, trying to get back into the mood of a fight after this strange mont.
Riiip Riip Riiip
That was when he was suddenly attacked by a trio of demons. The skinny faunus-like demons appeared to have erged from nothing, and stabbed him on the back with their spears.
Their goat faces smirk in satisfaction till they notice that they are stuck.
"Very good stealth skills…" hector praises, but does not bother to turn back.
That is because he doesn't need to. Their spears never even hit him; they went straight on his cape, sank into the dark fabric like into a dark puddle.
The Shaed has its back, moving on its own, and like a snake, grabbed the demons by the neck. It pulls them inside the cape, they sink like they are in a swamp, the fabric trembles a little after they disappear completely…
Buchi Buchi Buchi
And then they are spit like the Shaed is so sort of ancient beast, their body minced at.
"You guys need to do better than that…" Eidolon says to everyone.
"Hmpf, arrogant." Molgotha scoffs.
But Asmodeus is the one who attacks next. A seamless teleportation later, and he is beside Eidolon, his three heads staring down at the hero while his big hands flank the smaller body.
"..." Eidolon feels the danger of the magic trap about to befall him, but he doesn't move, deciding to make his own attack fall into Asmodeus. His hand reaches for the demon, and he says "Heed my call… Sword of Durant."
BOOM
Like lightning hitting the ground, a streak of golden light hits the demon between his shoulder blades, forcing him to faceplant on the ground.
"I wanted it to go through your body… But I guess it is weaker if I'm not wielding and infusing with my power." Eidolon calmly walks on Asmodeus's back like the guy is of no importance and removes the Greatsword Durankal from the demon's shoulder plates. "The Ol' Reliable… always go with the greatsword." He smirks and rests the blade that is bigger and thicker than his own body on his shoulders, the gold and black sared by the demon's red blood.
"Aaarh!" The two side heads turn to Eidolon and release so sort of demonic laser from their eyes.
Ziiiiin
Eidolon blocks with the flat side of his sword and jumps back with the help of the power of the blast. Still in the air, Eidolon changed the angle of the blade a little to redirect the magic laser.
Escaping from the line of attack, he uses one arm to swing the big sword down.
Whoosh Shwoo
The simple movent is enough to move great quantities of air. A gust of wind hits Asmodeus, and a second later, his sight is already illuminated by a bright golden light.
"Gaaah!" The demon didn't have ti to dodge, only to try to create so defenses that prevented him from sustaining grave injuries.
Instead, his back was skinned, exposing the muscles beneath it. The sound of burning flesh can be heard by the hero.
"Oh, it is absolutely healing slower." He comnts in the air, satisfied "You are fucked in my hands…" Even without seeing his face, from his tone alone, everyone can imagine that he has a big shit-eating grin on his lips.
"Hateful human!" Asmodeus shoots from the ground in fury, fist flaring with hellfire.
Eidolon gets serious after ragebaiting the demon; he grips his sword with two hands and raises it to bring it down on Asmodeus.
"!" But suddenly, a giant red fist appears at his side, a similar attack to the one that took his previous body out of commission. He changed stance and attacked the middle finger of the giant fist with Durankal.
He stuck with the sword, planting his feet on the fist, and allowed himself to be punched away after minimizing damage.
Turning his head, he noticed that the arm starts moving downwards to smash him into the ground, so he grips the sword tightly, and the glyphs of the blade start shining with a golden light.
Bam
Like it was a canon, Durankal discharges a magical blast directly in the hand, creating an explosion beneath the skin. At the sa ti, Eidolon was punched into the ground.
Boom
The punch raises rocks and dust high in the air, but it is not nearly as impressive as the one Eidolon delivered before.
That is why, after the giant arm dematerializes, he appears a little but seems unscathed.
'Strength is not the sa as Attack Potency…' He may not bench press as much as Peak Thor or a Very Angry Hulk, but he bets his attacks would cause no less destruction than theirs.
"Oh, so it is like hurting your real body?" Eidolon smirks again after looking at Molgotha and seeing that his read hand was dripping blood for an instant before healing. "Continue using this attack… I bet it will work better next ti." He makes a cheap provocation, he bets the prideful Realm Lord is gonna bite at so point.
But then he decides to get serious, despite his outwardly joking tone.
"Start Mind Synchronization."
"Yes."
"Okay~"
To have more efficiency, it would be good to have an assistant to help him fight, like how J.A.R.V.I.S. helps Tony Stark. The problem is that there is no one who can keep up with him and give any relevant help.
Cortana can… And Nesis, too, if they sync their minds. With his Oga-level telepathy and his technopathy, it's not hard to connect with the two when they literally inhabit his body.
Despite his extrely advanced mind, Hector still can't compare with Cortana's processing speed, and Nesis will benefit from his abilities, too, to help.
To lessen his burden during the fight, Cortana will analyze the situation at lightspeed, process the information, and directly transmit it to his head. Nesis will co-pilot the armor and keep his passive powers up and running, allowing him to focus on the battle.
It's not a groundbreaking help; Hector can do pretty much everything alone, but it will allow him to be in top shape through the whole fight.
Their exchange strategy without even a second passing on the outside world. Hector saw the horde of demons closing around him, probably in a strategy to tire him out or to allow the real enemies to see his abilities.
"Nesis…" he instructed her to take care of it while he started buffing himself.
Multitasking, he uses both magic buffs and ta powers. Raw Magic Body Enhancent, Ainz's spells to increase his resistance to the diverse effects, and start clearing the conditions to activate certain passive ta-powers.
Like the boosts that happen if he ingests tea, sugar, coffee, or orange juice… After that, Nesis will be the one maintaining the buffs active, renewing them if they end.
But before that, she controls the armor and, with access to so of his powers, she makes two spikes appear, one in each shoulder, brimming with energy.
ZAAAP
Then it discharges an omnidirectional energy field that paralyzes the demons and encircles them. It is too dispersed to be fatal, but it paused them for enough ti for Eidolon to finish his boosts.
"Okay, ready…" Eidolon raises his left arm, hand outstretched, before making a grabbing motion.
His telekinesis encompasses a good chunk of the enemies and squeezes them into a ball. Keeping his hold, Eidolon jumps, right arm swinging Durankal.
SWISH Swish
Two giant golden slashes make a cross that flies at the giant ball of demons, crashing against it with an explosion that destroys at least half of them and injures the rest.
Eidolon also saw Asmodeus starting sothing, so he changed his right arm. His gantlet becos a cannon that lights up imdiately, and he starts firing energy balls at the demon of lust.
Bam Bam BamBamBamBam*
Every one of the attacks hit, making Asmodeus stumble and giving Eidolon enough ti to close the distance. He was already above the demon, holding Durankal into a reverse grip with both hands, and descending with full force.
"Aaargh!" Asmodeus shouted in pain when the huge sword penetrated his middle head till the handle.
But even so, Asmodeus managed to attack him with so magic that conjures chains that try to bind him. The chains aid straight at his hands and sword, so Eidolon let go of the sword with hesitation.
But he doesn't retreat completely; he grabs the other two heads of Asmodeus, and then upside-down, releases explosions from his palms.
BOOM BOOM
As Asmodeus was engulfed by the explosion, Eidolon allowed the blast to carry him away, spinning on himself to kill the montum. Durankal flies to his hand at the right mont for him to swing it against a humongous ball of fire that Molgotha threw against him.
Whoosh Eidolon was able to cut it cleanly in two, and using the montum of his own swing to kick the air and disperse the rest of the attack away from him.
"Ah yes, I'm being jumped…" He comnts amidst the storm of fire around him.
At a distance, he sees Molgotha preparing another attack.
The hero doesn't waste ti and throws his huge sword at the Real Lord. Durankal cuts the air fast enough to interrupt whatever Molgotha was preparing.
But the red demon is strong and fast enough to grab Durankal between his hands.
"Hm?" What he didn't count on was the invisible string around the handle, which imdiately grows in size and thickness. It makes a circle that quickly goes around him and pulls the demon to Eidolon like he is a fish.
Molgotha crosses the air at lightning speed, getting closer and closer to Eidolon…
And the hero is waiting for him with his fist ready. Sa pose before he punched Minos earlier, with just a little difference. His armor is now fused with the Devil Arm Beowulf.
His gauntlet was thicker than normal, his fist shining with a bright white light…
Molgotha will obviously not let this happen that easily, so the Realm Lord escapes by growing to colossal proportions. He becos at least 500 ters tall, a giant that only needs to put his foot on the ground to stop…
But that didn't stop Eidolon. If he can't pull the demon to him, he will go to the demon.
Like a cot, Eidolon dashes at Molgotha by pulling the rope, quickly appearing in front of him and punching his giant face.
BOOOOOM
The shockwave exploded in a giant ball of light, covering Molgoath from the chest up. The sa occurrences happen again, everyone is pushed back by the impact, the ground space cracks and distorts, the ground moves like it is liquid…
…and Molgotha falls.
The giant body hits the ground almost in slow motion, but the devastation is real.
Eidolon is not so nice as to let the chance pass. His hand pressed downward, increasing the gravity on Molgotha as much as he could, keeping the demon down so that he could land the next attack.
His feet clad with the Beowulf are the ones that shine now; he falls like a shooting star, a streak of light that hits Molgotha straight in the chest.
BOOOOOM CRAAACK
The demon appeared to have felt that because he spat blood.
Eidolon wanted to continue, but suddenly his vision changed and he woke up in bed…
"What happened? A nightmare?" He hears Shego's voice at his side
"That is rare…" Now is Harley. "Want to talk about it?"
"..." He sits up on the bed, staring at the two naked won at his side.
"It's okay if you don't…" Harley shrugs, pressing her breasts on his arm.
"More ti to enjoy ourselves before the others co back~" Shego says sultrily in his ear.
The two won hug him, their hands on his abs and travelling south…
Crack Crack
…but a second later, they fall lifeless on the bed, with their neck twisted.
Eidolon imdiately changed targets and flew to Asmodeus so fast that a scar was opened on the ground and a storm was raised.
"That was a very unnecessary way to make annoyed, hellspawn." Eidolon is close to Asmodeus now, his voice without a drop of amusent.
The demon raises his hands, and two magic circles appear on them.
Tak Tak Crash
But the magic circles didn't even have the ti to complete their spells; Eidolon destroyed them by shootingNth tal bullets, which he created on the fly, from his fingers.
Frustrated, Asmodeus conjures a giant mace and swings at the hero, who almost scoffs at the sight. Even if he is a demon archduke, Asmodeus is not on the level to compete with Eidolon in physical strength. He is more of a sorcerer; there's even a book of his spells in the Ancient One's library. Obviously, his strength is considerable, but he is not inclined in that direction.
POW So a kick is all Eidolon needs to make Asmodeus' arms jerk backwards; now he is completely exposed.
Eidolon steps back because of the impact, just to bounce in the air and recover much quicker than Asmodeus.
He lands on the demon's body, one foot on the chest and the other on the mouth. At so point, the greaves of the Beowulf Devil Arm disappeared, and only the normal armor stayed.
Eidolon's feet changed, going from the normal human appendage to sothing akin to a dragon claw that grips Asmodeus tightly, securing Eidolon's spot, claws sinking into the demon's flesh and forcefully closing his mouth.
"I will make it painful…" Eidolon raises his two forearms and then starts a barrage of punches fast enough to leave hundreds of after-images.
Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam Blam
The fists landed on all three heads, having a range longer than normal, and looking more elastic too, bouncing back quickly.
Asmodeus's three heads bounce and jump like he is a bobblehead toy in the middle of an earthquake. Each punch is carried with enough power of the Beowulf Devil Arm to burn with holy power.
Eidolon only stopped when he felt danger approaching.
He needs to dodge Molgotha's incoming attack, but not before making Asmodeus suffer a little more.
Twisting his foot, the one that is clawing on Asmodeus' chest, Eidolon shows a great deal of flexibility to reach with his two arms on the side heads of Asmodeus. Now he has all of them in his hands(and foot).
Riiiiiiiiiiiip
Then he rips the three faces by twisting his body backward and sideways.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" Asmodeus screams in pain while his arms go to cover his faceless head. Eidolon even went as far as to use so powers in contact, which increases the target's sensitivity.
Eidolon leaves Asmodeus behind to fly in the air to dodge the incoming attacks. Molgotha threw at him. It is a thousand homing magic missiles and imdiately changed directions to follow Eidolon.
The hero dodges for a bit, gaining distance, spinning on himself, and then he makes a huge arc to go back to Molgotha.
Then he does sothing curious… He just stopped dodging.
Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow
The homing magic missiles made an ascending arc to et him on the route, and all landed on his body.
That was completely out of character for the guy with a fighting style that specialized in never getting hit. But it doesn't take long to see that those attacks aren't doing more than creating so smoke when hitting him.
Well, it is obviously doing so damage, but for so reason, Eidolon is ignoring them while flying at Molgotha in a straight line.
The huge Realm Lord saw that and opened his wide. Energy starts coalescing inside it, and an obvious breath attack is coming.
"..." Eidolon saw and ignored it completely, still flying straight ahead.
With a roar, Molgotha releases a huge red sphere of magic power. It is transparent with a volatile core like a lightning storm.
"..." Strangely, Eidlon makes no attempt to dodge and hits the sphere head-on, entering the storm of magical power inside.
Bzzt ZaapCrashCrashPowPow Boom Craack BOOOM
The sphere illuminates itself for so ti, clearly so conflict is happening inside and then it cracked and exploded.
Whoosh
And Eidolon erged from it seemingly completely normal, with so cracks on his armor, fus and smoke clinging to his body, but still looking calm.
"A little reckless…" Cortana comnts
"But it's working." Nesis replies
"They are not the only ones who can overwork their healing factors." Eidolon says, showing that he indeed took damage, but healed quickly enough not to be noticeable.
And the reason for that lies in his armor…
Eidolon finally arrives at Molgotha, who quickly raises his arm to punch the hero, but Hector finally dodges a little to the side before starting to cut the Realm Lord's arm.
He changed his limbs into sharp blades that he uses to attack with so strong rotation. He travels through the arm till the shoulder, leaving a trail of huge wounds that release blood like a waterfall.
He then goes and stabs Molgotha in the eye with his two limbs turned blades, and doesn't waste ti dragging them down, and then starts cutting the Realm Lord's cheek, neck, shoulder, chest… whole body…
To make matters worse for the colossal demon, it seems Eidolon is being particularly nasty today, and the trails left behind are being afflicted by the most diverse effects like decaying, poisoning… and leaving soother fun things in the wounds.
Molgotha tries to catch him in the sa way soone would try to slap a bug crawling on their body, but Eidolon is much more annoying and aware.
It is almost a comical sight to see the red giant palming his own body, trying to get Eidolon.
Not only is the hero cutting Molgotha, every step he takes running on the demon is an attack… Shockwaves propagate from his feet, giving internal damage, while his two arms create a trail redder than the demon's skin.
Molgotha finally lost his temper; his skin shone with an electrifying light before it exploded in a huge spherical blast.
It was so fast and with such a huge radius that even Eidolon could not dodge it from that position. So he just braced himself and tanked the whole thing.
His armor is liquefied and solidified back and forth multiple tis, his internal organs ruptured and then regenerated back… The explosion is so huge that it would cover an area as big as North Arica, and him at the epicenter and received the most of it.
But he holds on. With grit and multiple powers to diverge and defend himself, Eidolon held on till Molgotha was out of fuel.
Fsssssh
He is fuming but alive, floating in the air after being pushed kiloters away.
"We have enough juice." Nesis warns him
"So please stop being reckless." Cortana says in exasperation.
"It's not 'limit testing' if I don't test my limits." He replies with a smile that is a little too crazy
He can't stay idle for long because Molgotha stepped on the ground, making it crack like glass, and geysers of magma rose from the earth. The pillars of fire are as big as skyscrapers, creating an apocalyptic scene.
He dodged so from the force of habit and to make sure not to be hidden in the attack. After all, using a big attack like this on a single enemy is a little dumb in his opinion, unless it's to cover sothing.
After making sure that it's just Molgotha throwing a tantrum and destroying everything, he goes to attack again, ignoring whether he has to fly through a pillar of fire or two.
Molgotha opens his mouth again, and Eidolon senses danger that makes him quickly teleport a little far away.
The laser attack coming from Molgotha's mouth was different this ti. It was thin and moved instantly in a horizontal line. It disappeared on the horizon, and then the whole background exploded.
Boom Boom Boom Boom
Anyone still around can see the nuclear-like explosions blooming from far away, and still being hit by the wind and shockwaves even from this distance.
"Now you are taking seriously…" Eidolon says to Molgotha.
The Realm Lord is swinging at him with a giant energy-red sword in his arms.
'A Soulsword… That is gonna hurt.' Extending his hand, Eidolon calls for Durankal. "Eclipse Mode… Slash." The sword grows even larger, the golden light shining like the sun, and Eidolon swings at Molgotha, too.
It was a ridiculous sight, a firefly fighting soone with a lightsaber, but the colossal Soulsword stopped, crashing against the piercing golden light.
But then it collapsed anyway, unknown if Eidolon cut it or if it was a trick of Molgotha, but the red Soulsword bends a little and overpowers Eidolon, the red light engulfs the golden light in an instant.
The slash runs thousands of miles in that direction, creating a red curtain that reaches the sky.
Satana, who put as much distance from the fight as possible, is still shocked like never before.
"What is the actual fuck…" She says slowly, eyes wide.
She doesn't know what she should be more surprised… The fact that this battle seems like it will destroy this pocket dinsion, or maybe the fact she knows that Molgotha is much weaker than her father and is still this strong, or maybe the fact that her annoying travelling companion is fighting the sa guy in equal terms.
Back to the fight, Eidolon erged from the remnant energy of the Soulsword strike, armor cracked and cape torn, but all repairing already.
He doesn't get close; instead, he uses the opening of Molgotha's previous bug swing to stretch and make his fist grow to punch the huge demon on his neck. A move copied from Luffy.
Molgotha stumbles back, and Eidolon's hand changes to a weird liquid substance that sticks to Molgotha, surrounding the demon's neck. Eidolon used that to pull himself to finally get close again.
Eidolon is really using 100% his armor. You see? Different from all other armors and suits out there, the Hell Nesis armor does not boost his fighting power per se. Like the na says, it's a survival suit, sothing to protect him from dangerous environnts.
It doesn't have many extra features like the Iron Man armor or the Blue Beetle one; it is the opposite, really. Hector's body is the one changed, and the armor is keeping up with him.
One of the main features of the armor is simply not getting in his way. That is why he can sprout new limbs, cannons, blades, or fundantally change his body in any way and keep the armor surrounding him.
The fusion, allowing Nesis to access so of his powers, is also a good bonus.
But the main kicker is that this armor does what all armors should do before anyone adds anything fancy… It protects him.
Not by being super resistant either, because ironically, he didn't put adamantium on his armor beyond leaving so inside Nesis to use later. No, his armor is able to absorb attacks.
Yes, it started with trothium, a tal that behaved similarly to the symbiotes, fusing with Nesis, he was able to create the first version of the armor, like Stark's Endo-Sym Armor.
Prothium, the tal he acquired on Limbo, can absorb energy sources, especially magic. Then he added Vibranium, which can absorb kinetic energy.
That ans his armor is able to almost negate all kinds of external attacks… and turn them into energy for Hector.
If you add that he still has Shaw's power, making him absorb physical attacks too… it makes him almost indestructible. Not only that, he is getting stronger the more he is hit. It does not have an efficiency of 100% - he is still working on that - but it is good enough for now,
That is why he is not that worried about dodging anymore. After a certain point, and after he absorbed enough attacks without dying instantly, he is pretty confident he can tank the rest.
And if Eidolon doesn't need to worry about dodging, it ans he can finally fully focus on the offensive… That is what his armor is for.
Boom
He lands on Molgotha with a loud sound, and then he sinks his hands on the demon. Literally. He uses his liquefied hands to enter the almost healed wounds, and starts rampaging inside the giant.
He uses all kinds of powers in that state too… he generates explosions, electrocutes him, decays his body, releases toxins, poisons, devours his flesh, disintegrates it, and shoots lasers. All made by the tendrils spreading through Molgotha's torso.
The Realm Lord obviously will not take that without doing nothing; once again, he releases that omni-blast of destruction, but Eidolon tanked it even better now.
He let go of Molgotha's chest, his arms going back to normal, and jumped between the demon's eyes, completely ignoring the explosion hitting and trying to force him away.
"Burn in your mories the image of a human plumting you." Eidolon says while pulling his right arm back, glowing in that already familiar holy light.
BOOOM
BOOOM
BOOOM
BOOOM
He doesn't spare punches, each one as strong as the one he delivered on Minos; he is giving back so of the energy he got by being hit before, too.
"INSECT!!!" Molgotha tries everything. Laser eyes, magic, punches…
But Eidolon takes the attacks and delivers the energy back, balancing to not absorb beyond his capabilities and not emptying his reserves to put him on square zero again.
A little after the hundredth punch, Molgotha's face is all disfigured, and the Realm Lord does sothing no one expected.
A giant red vortex opens behind him, and he starts escaping.
"This is not worth my ti…" he says while cutting out a part of his face and finally getting free of Eidolon. "You are lucky that we are fighting outside my territory, human!" With those last words, the vortex swallows him and starts closing.
"..."
...…
On the other side, Molgotha erges, still fuming with the anger of a million suns, his wounds healing much slower than expected - even in his own Realm - because of the Holy energy still lingering.
He even started to actively redirect the energy of his dinsion to heal himself faster.
It's because he was concentrating so hard and blind with anger that he didn't see it coming…
"Hm?" He turned his head to see Eidolon already attacking him.
The crazy guy really crossed the vortex to continue to give Molgotha a beating.
His legs are in a squatting position in the air, arms raised, holding Durankal, the sword shining with a golden light that pierces the sky of Molgotha's Dinsion.
"YOUR SON OF A BITCH-"
SWISH
Eidolon releases a downward slash that hits his head and peels off Molgotha's face.
"RAAARGH!" The demon screams in annoyance, his skin coming back, the blood receding from his eyes… But it's too late.
Eidolon is already being pulled back by sothing from where he is coming from.
In his red vision, stained with blood and anger, Molgotha can see Eidolon's final attack on him.
A middle finger pointed in his direction.
His roar of fury shook his whole realm that day.
...….
The Shaed strains himself to pull Eidolon's back, grippingHector's Mjolnir from the Record of Ranarok world, which he brought out to be a "paper weight".
"HAHAHAHA! That is what I'm talking about!!" Nesis shouts excitedly like a kid who went on a rollercoaster
"That was dangerous; if his mind had been a little calr, he would have trapped us there." Cortana tries to be the voice of reason
"Relaaax~ What are this guy's counterasures for if not so that we can go a little crazy?"
"To escape and solve unpredictable, dangerous situations, not to be an excuse to jump into them."
"It's okay, Cortana. You know , it's not gonna happen frequently." Eidolon says to stop the fight, "It is just that it irked a little that he can just escape and recover like nothing happened. I needed to send a ssage."
"Hehe, I bet he is gonna think about that every ti he goes to sleep."
Cortana can't help but giggle a little too "Okay, that was good, but let's focus because it is not over."
"It's pretty much if that guy dipped. The rest is done, and we still have a lot of raw energy stored." Nesis scoffs
Eidolon looks at the wrecked scenario. If soone took a picture of the battlefield, anyone would think that it is the surface of so planet without an atmosphere that is hit by teors and solar explosions thousands of tis a day.
He disappears from his place and reappears above an already healed Asmodeus.
"I haven't forgotten about you." Eidolon says.
After seeing him fight with Molgotha, Asmodeus is not nearly as confident to continue his own fight.
"Don't worry, I will kill you fast." Eidolon dashes at him. Molgotha escaping already annoyed him, so even if Asmodeus has a way of returning in the future, Eidolon will at least kill him.
Asmodeus harshly puts a magical barrier in front of him, but Eidolon spins on himself, his body becoming a drill that easily pierces the protection.
"Bastard!" Asmodeus teleported back to create distance, raising barriers and sending magic attacks to stop Eidolon.
But all of that barely slows him down.
While he was panicking, the back of Asmodeus' mind started throbbing, a mory long forgotten resurfacing because he once felt sothing like this… This exact suffocating feeling of hopelessness… he felt it before.
It was so long ago that he couldn't even count the years. He rembered that he and so other demons of the sa level descended beneath the Ninth Circle to check a disturbance.
At that ti, he was at his peak, stronger than ever, with his own territory, subordinates, and even human worshippers. He was a King at that ti, stronger than even Belial.
Full of confidence, he went there, thinking that a portal to another dinsion had opened for him to conquer.
What they found horrified even a King of Hell like him.
A little inside the Abyss, they found a human-sized creature feasting in the body of giants, alien gods, and eldritch monsters. The thing was minuscule compared with the corpses, but no one was dumb enough to underestimate it.
Well, one was dumb enough… Poor Andras, he was suddenly snatched and had his own head munched off faster than anyone could react.
The others only reacted by running away. Luckily, the creature never gave chase, just continued to feast on Andras' body while staring at them with hollow eyes, crouched down on the sea of corpses.
That day beca an eternal mark of sha to those prideful demons. They ran with their tails between their legs from an unknown creature that looked too much like an human.
They swore to never talk about that and tried to erase the encounter from their mory. If sothing happens on the Abyss, normally it stays in the Abyss…
But that thing didn't… years later, it started climbing up.
It was chaos… The thing started hunting and devouring demons like it was their natural predator. It created a huge exodus from the demons, making them move up in the Cicles, and many to seal their own Realms.
At that ti, coincidence or not, the Naless starts acting too… Many thought that they were his subordinate creatures, and by the fact that it never said anything, they started calling him the Naless One.
That and the fact that he was able to steal the demon's powers. Nas have power in Hell, but the Naless One could have all the powers, all nas, and all authorities.
It didn't take long for people to notice that there's a pattern in the demons that creature was hunting…
They all have a contract with an incredibly talented human sorcerer, Solomon. They thought she just wanted to make a grimoire compelling all their Innate Magic, they accepted because all of them wanted her as a subordinate.
The contract had a two-way tracking asure that allowed them to know where Solomon was all the ti… And vice versa.
She tricked them! Their key to controlling her becos their downfall!
But many didn't understand how that was possible; they knew about all her moves, how could she have entered into contact with that creature?
Those thoughts are secondary to their survival, so the remaining mbers of the Legeton joined forces to hunt and kill Solomon.
Those are dire tis, even others' demons are turning on them, trying to offer them as sacrifices to the Naless One so that he could spare them.
When they found Solomon… it was a trap again.
They are all wiped out. Many demons swore on their nas that they would have their revenge, putting a curse on themselves to forever be linked and hate the Naless One.
Asmodeus had erased that day from his mind, but it is coming back, because of his curse… He made a promise to himself to never forget that humiliating day.
His body was being eaten by so eldritch darkness filled with eyes and teeth, Solomon and her master looking down on him.
The bitch with an impassive face while he opened a wide smile.
"Huhu~, It will make sense in the future, so I will not waste words with so cool speech." He chuckles "So this is for that and that thing that you did to annoy . It was unnecessary, you know?"
Then darkness… Asmodeus died.
When he woke up again, he was much weaker, without his authority, territory, or subordinates… It's hard to kill a demon in Hell.
Asmodeus reincarnated many years later, thanks to his power, but at the cost of them. His absence also made him lose his prestige; it was indeed dark tis. He was forced to be the subordinate of demons that are once his equals.
And now…
Eidolon kicks him in the air, and he felt so much danger that his mind clicked.
"IT'S YOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Asmodeus roars, his body weightless, refusing to move in the face of the one he fears the most in the universe.
When he felt his world getting darker, Asmodeus looked up to see Eidolon ready to attack, ready to destroy him for good.
Eidolon is not holding back this ti… He is gonna use everything.
He beca a giant, as tall as Molgotha in his colossal form, in his hands he holds his Thanagarian Mace, equally enormous, and shining with a black sheen because it is being covered by his armor materials.
'Nesis… We are using everything.'
"Okay~ This is gonna be huge!!" Nesis is excited and curious about how big the destruction would be this ti.
When Eidolon said "everything" he really ant it.
Gigantification of himself and the mace, increase of weight and density, Conqueror's Haki, Chakra, Mana Enhancent, One For All, his stand to double his power, all ta and magic buffs, Hypertrophy, Kinect Booster, Acceleration, a hundred tis multiplied speed, Tremor powers, gravity amplification, Twice Impact, Muscle Augnt, Impact Multiplication, and other hundreds of powers combined with the physical strength of all the characters he assimilated. And he is releasing all the energy stored in this battle, too.
As the Thanagarian Mace shows that characteristic electric field around it, space itself distorts, like it is being sucked in by the weapon.
"Master, don't make a Black Hole…" Cortana warns.
"It is not that easy to make one." Hector replies, his arms pulling back more to increase the arc of the swing
"Na the attack!!" Nesis shouts
"On the fly?" They are having a whole conversation in an instant
"Then copy from soone else!" Nesis knows that his naming sense is a joke. If left to him, he will na sothing like Human Style: Baseball Horun or sothing like that.
"Fine…" He knows just the guys… He is basically doing the sa anyway.
From Asmodeus' point of view, the whole world grew dark. There is a storm behind Eidolon, and Asmodeus knows that it is to be delivered to him.
The giant Eidolon stares him down with his white visor, the spiky ball of the mace is as big as Asmodeus himself…
"Destroyer of Worlds… Ragnarok." He nad the attack inspired by Kaido and Thor. It sounds poetic too, because…
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM CRAAAAAAAAAAACCCK
When he swung the mace, it felt like the world would collapse.
Asmodeus beca blood mist instantly; his body didn't even slow down the attack for a fraction of a second. The mace went unobstructed to the place where he was, and the place where he was destroyed, too.
The space… It literally broke that area like glass. A sound so loud that it was almost muffled reached everyone's ear, distant and too close at the sa ti.
"Is that bastard trying to destroy this dinsion???" Satana asks with her mouth agape, staring at the gap in space and the void on the other side, the cracks spreading almost like the sky will collapse.
And nothing much needs to be said about the ground… It was turned over so much that it is now strangely even and smooth, not a sight of mountain or anything, just the waves of the attack.
"Well, all that energy stored was pretty strong…" Hector comnts while staring at his art.
"Maybe this pocket dinsion is too weak." Nesis says, half-fascinated and half-horrified.
They watch with a morbid interest the sky stretch unnaturally, forcefully closing the gap like a mouth.
"So that is how things work." Eidolon nods
"Space is not so fragile, it seems…" Cortana finally comnts
"But the area looks a little funky… It's blurry to your guys, too?" Nesis ask
"It's thinner, it's gonna recover." Eidolon answers.
"I don't know if that is the right world… This dinsion is standing, but the whole place is barren now." Cortana says
"Who cares?" Eidolon shrugs his shoulders. "I will just create a ntal note to never go all out on Earth… or even close by."
"I think the Universe can hold it better… more area to disperse, if you get what I an." Nesis suggest
"Maybe you are right, but destroying planets is not on my bucket list."
"One day is gonna happen~" She smiles devilishly
"...maybe I should add to the list then."
While he was talking casually with his companions, from the corner of his eye, he noticed the last ones he needed to take care of.
Bamf
He telerpoted above the twin leopards.
"I also haven't forgotten you two…" He says, blocking their retreating path.
"That…"
"That is Azazel's…"
Bam Eidolon doesn't give them ti to continue, punching them on their stomachs; better leave them to their own conclusions. It would be fun if, after this, people went to create problems for Azazel…
…not that he plans to let those two live.
He looks down on the two groaning in pain on the ground. They are pathetic when compared to even Minos, so it would be laughable to compare them ot Molgotha. And they know that, Eidolon can feel that there is not a single bone of defiance in their bodies.
"Please…" One pleads
"We… We will do anything you want…" The other completes.
"Two billion souls, huh?" Eidolon's voice is chilly even in this hot Hell. "Mama always said to kill my enemies with kindness… And if that doesn't work, use greater kindness."
The twin leopards open their jaws in shock when Hector retrieves sothing from thin air.
It is an unholy abomination, a "sword" that doesn't look like a sword.
It is the jaw of a beast ford by seven huge chainsaw blades, four above and three down, opening and closing nacingly and even spitting fire. It's the size of a family car that he is holding with a stick.
On the side of one of the blades, the words Greater Kindness are written in bold letters.
VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
He turns the thing on, all the giant chainsaw blades rev crazily, the four upper blades going down and three others going up between the gaps of the ones above.
Without saying a word, he thrusts the abomination forward, which imdiately chomps the two leopards.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"
They scream like the tortured souls in Hell, the chainsaws move inwardly, so they pull the victim in while shredding them.
"I really hope you guys don't have a healing factor… for your own good."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
"One chance, give the souls and I will stop." Eidolon threatens
"He-Here!"
"Argh! Take it!"
They don't hesitate for even two seconds, pulling out a dim blue crystal from sowhere, sothing Eidolon quickly snatches from his hands.
"..." He stares at it with his All Seeing Eyes of God.
Two billion human souls… All of them are in this deceptively simple crystal.
"I will not say thank you." Eidolon turns to the demons, and then twists the wrist of the hand that is holding his Greater Kindness.
Boom
The thing can also shoot like a shotgun. It vaporized the demons instantly because he used Haki. He promised that he would stop… stop torturing them. Insta-killing is okay. "You should have asked for a contract."
A second later, Satana lands close to him, folding her wings as her feet touch the ground.
"So all of this was because of the souls…" She says, looking at the crystal floating in his hands, voice strange.
He turns his head to look at her. "What? Did you think I ca to save you?" he mocks, face hidden by his helt that is being illuminated by the weak light of the crystal. "Please, don't fall for …"
Her face morphs into one of anger before she schools her features. "Congratulations, you saved a bunch of sinners and like two good people on the mix!" She crosses her arms and rolls her eyes
"Two? Worth it then…"
"..." She doesn't know if she could be annoyed or impressed.
The first ti he told her his plan, she laughed so hard that she almost pissed herself. The second, she decided that he is a dumb and unworthy of even a word of advice… and now… the third ti…
"Are you really gonna continue with this? Taking the souls from Dukes and Kings of Hell? From Realm Lords, Helllords, and other powerhouses? Do you understand the magnitude of what you are playing? You stole from them? You are their number one enemy now? And you're gonna continue doing that??" She doesn't even know why she is so worked up because of that.
He looks at her silently before answering.
"Yes."
"!!!"Perhaps now is because she is catching herself believing that he can actually do it.
