Chapter 413 Let's Get To Work
Zelus sighed helplessly:
***I thought killing you will give me honor and fame... But who would have thought It would lead to thi--***
"--We all know it would lead to this!!" Tyson yelled, waving his hand.
Zelus glared at him with killing instinct, and turned back to Michael:
***Now I know why they all retreated... They retracted because there's no way they could kill you head-on... Don't worry human, or god; When Typhon is released, we'll know if you're really as powerful as you claimed.***
"*I didn't claim to be anything.*"
Zelus narrowed his eyes.
"I can't claim it when I'm already the strongest."
{Slow down Ho--}
'--It's a metaphor.'
He cut off the system.
{Metaphor?}
The system was stunned.
Zelus just slowly nodded:
***If I'm going to die, then you all are going with me.***
Zelus's body started glowing with a red light, while the Clone let go of him and leaped backward, entering Michael's body.
"No! This is bad! Lord Michael!! Stop him before he explodes! A true god's explosion is strong enough to level thousands of miles into ashes!! Stop him, you're the closest!!" Athena yelled.
"Lord Michael?"
Out of everything she said, that was the only thing Michael heard.
"Oh? It seems I'm now a Lord to the gods." He added, looking at himself with a please smile.
***Enjoy it while it last, because in a minute, you'll be dead... All of you will be dead--Mmmm!!***
"*Shhh... You make so much noise, just explode already; I want to see the amount of destruction you can possibly cause.*" Michael said coldly.
***You want to see? Do you think I'm joking?!!! I'll destroy this whole place!!!***
"*It seems you're blind."
Michael walked towards the still glowing Zelus, and squat down before him:
"*Look around you... There's nothing but flat landscape, and mountains, so what can you destroy? The sands or mountains?*"
***Uh?***
Zelus looked around him, and true to Michael's words, there wasn't much he could destroy... Seeing the races' soldiers, He yelled:
***They'll die!! You can't protect all of them!!***
"*Oh, really?*" Michael grinned.
***Why is he so sure he could save them? Or is this his plan? That I should kill myself? No!! I can't die alone... Out of these people, there's only one Whose death will break Michael.***
He set his eyes on Erika, and before Everyone knew it, Zelus disappeared from his location.
"Huh?" Michael was stunned.
***You die here, Erika!!***
His speed was so fast that everyone was some seconds late to act... Erika's eyes widened, seeing the hand moving towards her throat.
"Erika!!"
"Stop him!"
BAM!!!
Before Tyson and Jennifer could move with the soldiers, a figure caught Zelus's wrist.
***Huh?***
Zelus turned his head to the side, Seeing Michael staring at him, his eyes ablaze with an unholy intensity.
"**HOW. DARE. YOU?!!**"
His words were so cold that everyone felt the temperature dropped... A chill ran down their spines, and Zelus was no exception.
"**Never hurt my family! Don't even try to!!**"
Michael moved, standing in front of Erika. He channeled all his divinity, and gave a straight punch on Zelus's chest.
BANG!!!!
BOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!
Everyone's Jaw dropped wide open, staring at Zelus, whose chest and his whole upper body have been destroyed, literally.
Zelus's half lower body fell to the ground, blood flowing out like a fountain.
"A punch did this?" Athena was petrified.
"How did a punch destroy the whole upper body of a true god?" Artemis asked, also speechless.
Michael worriedly turned to Erika. He blinked a couple of times, and finally got himself back.
"Are you ok?" He asked.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Yes." Erika slowly nodded, still surprised by the punch.
"Wow! You're the greatest, Michael!!" Tyson said with a smile.
Michael smiled at him, and turned his head to Zelus, then at the destroyed battlefield littered with corpses.
"There are still things we need to take care of." He said.
"Oh! Leave it to us... At least we can take care of this battlefield." Athena quickly said with a smile.
"That's not what I mean, we can simply burn all the bodies... The things we need to take care of are the behavior of the people in this world... We won the war, that didn't mean we change their mindset... We'll start with the dragons Empire."
"But partner, how are we going to convince them that Raynard is dead, and the one using his body is a monster? Those senators won't easily believe us."
"Come on, Drakon... This is just part of the game, and to win, we have to play it the right way."
"Right way?" Drakon raised an eyebrow:
"Partner, you never played the right way."
"Hahaha!!" Michael laughed out loud.
"True."
He looked up at the sky: and smiled:
"We never played fair, and we'll stick to that... Apate!"
Whoosh!
Apate appeared before him, and got down on one knee:
"*Ruler!*"
"Take some worthy walkers, and go to the Dragons Empire, this is what you're going to do..."
Everyone listened to Michael's plan. Upon hearing everything, they were all stunned.
"You are simply destroying the Dragons Empire with this plan, Love?" Erika said in mild surprised.
"Nope, I won't destroy the empire... Just show them a lesson, as you know... The empire doesn't have manpower because they're all dead, so we can easily attack it... And second." He moved his gaze around the place:
"The demon King, and the other races' rulers escaped... I'm guessing they are in their kingdoms." He added.
"You let them escaped?" Erika asked, while Michael nodded.
"Yes... You can go."
Apate nodded, stood up, and disappeared from the place.
"Why?" Tyson asked.
"Because of all these guests, and pests; Drakon didn't show his strength... And besides, even if he did; those in the cities won't see it..." He turned around to the stunned group.
"We need to make sure Drakon have the respect needed, and also change the mindset of all the people... I think Athena and the gods can help us with that, right?"
"There are some gods who could control the hearts, consciousness and minds of people... They'll gladly help." Athena said.
Michael nodded at her answer:
"Come on, Let's get to work!" He yelled at the people.
