Apollo clenched his teeth in anger. He thought it would be easy to kill Artemis if he get the body of Fenrir, and his original plan to create Number One, which is full of errors and easily got replaced as he found a better solution, but right now, he felt like things were going wrong every way possible.

"What are you waiting for finish him? He's not even immortal in that body," Apollo shouted at his fairy, but then he noticed that things were not looking good for them.

Fenrir was getting pushed back by Nikol no matter how he tried to attack him with the huge body frame. It was bizarre to see Old Fenrir's body fighting against the current Fenrir, who is possessing Nikol's body, but things got rather intense as they were the only people that were in this huge area.

In the midst of a desolate landscape, Nikol stood firm, his eyes fixed on Apollo and Fenrir and without warning, Fenrir lunged forward, its massive jaws clamping down on empty air as Nikol deftly sidestepped the attack. The wolf snarled, its eyes narrowing as it circled around Nikol, looking for an opening.

But Nikol was always one step ahead. With a quick flourish of his extended claws, he struck out at Fenrir, the claws flashing through the air like a bolt of lightning. The wolf howled in pain, its fur singed and its skin seared by the power imbued in the claws.

"Brat! you need to know your real identity, you should take revenge for what happened, you're the only one who can do that," Fenrir, who was possessing Nikol's body shouted like he was talking to himself.

"Break your seal and embrace your true self, then you will understand the truth, until then-"

Possessed Nikol said and the wolf howled in agony as Nikol got close, its body convulsing as Nikol withdrew his claws and delivered a final blow. With a resounding thud, Fenrir crumpled to the ground, defeated and injured. No matter how immortal it is, suffering an injury was enough for it to get weaken, so Nikol stood there with his eyes focusing on Apollo, who was now sweating.

"Wait! You can't kill anyone right now, let Leviathan finish him," Artemis shouted as if she knew something that others didn't know.

And Possessed Nikol also didn't go any far, as he agreed to her words, which really confused Leviathan. She knew he wasn't someone who will listen to anyone and this annoyed her to some extent.

'What's with him? What is this secret they are hiding from me?'

She had so many questions, but for now, she decided to erase the pest that always annoyed them, so they can talk peacefully.

Leviathan lunged forward and captured Apollo in its powerful tails and wrapped them around Apollo's body almost squeezing him to death.

"Unhand me, foul beast!" Apollo shouted as he struggled against the Leviathan's grip.

"I am the mighty Apollo, the man who challenged the superior gods themselves, and you will regret killing me!"

Leviathan merely laughed at Apollo's bravado, her sharp teeth glinting in the sunlight.

"You may be a god, Apollo, but you're just an ant in front of us. Don't forget who we are, As long as you don't have Fenrir's body, you're just a weakling,"

Her grip became tight as she slowly squeezed him to death.

Instead of blood, pure mana started to come out of Apollo's mouth and he felt his consciousness fading. Without having any method to collect mana in the environment, Apollo felt the taste of death approaching him.

"Leviathan! Stop this," Suddenly they heard another female voice, which caused Leviathan to click her tongue in annoyance.

"I knew when I felt someone watching us from the forest, of course, it was you," Her words were pure annoyance she felt and her face disfigured as soon as she saw the person, that was floating above them.

"Don't kill anyone, I won't warn again, this is his order," She said and slowly got down and looked at Nikol with her squinted eyes and just ignored him.

"Chicken! Dumb bird! Do you want me to make a barbeque out of you? Don't interfere with our problems," Suddenly Nikol possessed by Fenrir dropped some harsh words, which caused the whole atmosphere to become hot because of this unknown woman's heat.

"Ahhh! He did it again," Leviathan thought holding her head, but inside she was smiling.

"You! Even after getting sealed, you don't know how to talk with someone older than you, foolish brother," She said and looked at Nikol with flames coming out of her whole body.

"I'll teach you, this is also my responsibility not being able to teach you correctly about manners, Leviathan might be dumb to ignore your pride, but this Phoenix won't let you do that,"

Phoenix said that and flared her wings from the back, which looked like magma leaking feathers, her feathers ruffled in anger as Nikol's insults rang in her ears.

"And how dare you call me a chicken, Fenrir?" she squawked, her eyes blazing with fury.

Nikol merely smirked, his arms folded in front of his chest. "Oh, come on now, Phoenix. Don't be so sensitive. It's not like you're the smartest bird in the sky."

Phoenix's mouth snapped open and shut, the urge to attack Nikol overwhelming her.

"I am not a dumb bird!" she screeched, her claws and legs digging into the ground beneath her.

Nikol laughed, a mocking sound that grated on Phoenix's nerves. "Oh, really? Then what do you call a bird that can't even fly straight? At this point, aren't you just an ostrich?"

Phoenix bristled at the jibe, her eyes narrowing to slits. "I can fly just fine!" she protested, taking a step forward.

Nikol took a step back, his eyes never leaving Phoenix's knowing that she would snap at this point. "Sure you can, chicken. Just like a penguin can swim."

Phoenix lunged at Nikol, her wings spread wide, ready to attack.

"I'll show you who's a dumb bird!" she screeched, her claws bared and her feathers ruffling in the wind.

Nikol shrugged, a smirk still plastered on his face.

"Same idiot as always!" He muttered in a low voice and ran in the direction where Leviathan was squeezing Apollo and quickly took cover behind him, before Phoenix's attack landed. And just as she expected, she couldn't stop her attack before it landed on Apollo's face causing half of it to get burned in the eternal flame of Phoenix.

"..."

Dumbfounded by what she just did, Phoenix kept looking at it while Leviathan couldn't help but smile.

"So much for not killing, are you sure you didn't come here to do this?" In a mocking tone, she questioned but Phoenix had sweat coming out of her head.

"No! No! Noooo!" She started breaking down all of a sudden in panic, and she even forgot that Leviathan had the ability to extinguish her flame.

"He will come back, he warned that if any more gods or goddesses die after Fenrir's massacre he would personally deal with it,"

She said and looked at Leviathan, but she had a confused face.

"Who's he-" She couldn't even finish the sentence as both she and Nikol fell on the floor while holding their heads in pain. The same thing happened to Phoenix, but she was less affected because she knew what was happening.

They were starting to regain their memory and the reason this happened was unknown, as Phoenix had no time to deal with it.

Artemis had sweat on her forehead since she could guess what was the cause of this problem, and she knew things would get really hard for them in the future.

"Leviathan, quickly extinguish the fire, don't let him die," Phoenix shouted like it was a death and life situation, and for them it really was.

The shouts of Phoenix mixed with Apollo's scream in agony as the flames of the eternal Phoenix consumed his flesh was a terrible feeling. The once-golden god writhed in the inferno, his once-beautiful face now twisted in pain and his flesh slowly melting.

Every nerve in his body felt like it was on fire, and the flames licked hungrily at his skin, consuming him inch by inch. Apollo tried to summon all of his divine strength, but it was no use. The Phoenix's flames were too powerful for even a god to resist.

With each passing moment, the pain intensified, and Apollo's screams grew louder and more desperate. He could feel his consciousness slipping away, as though the flames were consuming not just his body but his very soul.

Leviathan stood up after a few seconds with the same expression as Phoenix and felt like she had a wild fever dream.

"No way!" She felt like her mind was going with all this new information she got.

"So he's the person who sealed Fenrir. Nikol, You're-"

She was frozen, but she didn't have time to be like that because she knew if Apollo die here by any chance, that means it would be another purge will happen, and this time it won't end up with just Fenrir being sealed.
