Chapter 602 The End of the First Round (3)
\'\'It\'s not Simo...\'\' Next to him, God Shiva said, with a grin slowly stretching across his face, \'\'I don\'t think... that even Simo has pressure like this.\'\'
\'\'Who the hell is he then?\'\'
\'\'His name was... Wraith, right?\'\'
\'\'What?!\'\' Zeus snapped his head in the direction of the white-masked man, \'\'Impossible. That strength is in the realm of God. There shouldn\'t be any players at that level! And, he fought against Hades only moments ago, and was MUCH weaker!\'\'
\'\'I think... he went under enlightenment.\'\' God Shiva, stood up from his chair, and walked to the window, \'\'This proved it. The players, are indeed the key to our salvation.\'\'
The audience looked confused, as did the denizens of Four Seasons. However, Luna, and Isaac\'s parents, and siblings, immediately recognized him. Their eyes brightened up, with smiles appearing on their faces.
\'\'Sir, who may you be?\'\' In the arena, Heimdall asked while using the horn. After the question, the audience turned to the white-masked man, waiting for the answer.
\'\'Wraith.\'\' Isaac spoke. As his words entered everyone\'s ears, the whole arena erupted in shocked exclamations.
Kalzer stood up from his chair, looking shocked, \'\'W-What the hell?\'\'
\'\'T-This... am I feeling it right?\'\' Amour looked down at his hand. It was trembling.
\'\'Go, brother!\'\' Alice screamed, with flushed cheeks.
At the far corner of the arena, Underlord was, only moments ago, lying on his bed. However, as soon as the screen showed Isaac, his face paled, \'\'W-What the hell?\'\'
Heimdall gulped after the mention of the name. He then looked at Darkside, who looked pallid.
\'\'The final match of the first round, begin!\'\' He shouted into the horn, and galloped out of the arena as quickly as he could.
\'\'Damn!\'\' Darkside pulled out his two chains, the daggers shaped like dragon claws, tied at the ends. As he moved them around him, he screamed, and lunged across the arena.
As his figure swooshed through the air, he spun the chains around him, and slashed them down with a mighty shout, \'\'The Arc of Death!\'\'
The daggers, cut through the air in an arc shape.
Isaac, holding his sniper rifle in his right hand, suddenly raised his left hand. A soft white glow appeared in his hand, and then the sharp-looking daggers slashed at his palm. Everyone watching thought he would lose his arm.
However, the soft glow engulfed the blades, and broke them apart like glass shattering.
\'\'Death Touch...\'\'
\'\'?!\'\' Darkside\'s eyes widened in terror. His two blades, along with the chains, lay on the ground in pieces. They looked like they were as fragile as glass.
The audience widened their eyes in shock. They didn\'t completely see what happened. However, luckily, one of the large screens showed it as a replay. Everyone saw how Isaac grabbed the blades with his hand, and the soft white glow caused them to shatter.
After the replay, the audience erupted in cheers. They were still utterly shocked at the strength displayed. However, they still believed it was his ability, which he could only use once or twice.
\'\'Shit!\'\' Darkside jumped backward, and while in mid-air, he pulled out his pair of shining dark blades. As he landed on the ground, he kicked the ground, and explosively moved across the arena. He reached Isaac and slashed with the blades, hoping for a successful kill.
However, Isaac again grabbed the blades with his bare hands. The blades couldn\'t even cut through his flesh. The soft white glow engulfed the blades, and broke them apart.
This time, the audience realized something was wrong.
\'\'W-What the hell?!\'\' Hades jumped to his feet, even scaring Persephone.
The denizens of Four Seasons, realized they were watching something spectacular. The Internet, which had insulted Isaac, quieted down.
\'\'Death Touch...\'\' Isaac backhanded across Darkside\'s face. As everyone saw his neck twisting uncomfortably, they suddenly started screaming in shock. His face, the part which was hit by the backhand, started cracking!
\'\'A-Ah?!\'\' Darkside saw half of his face melting away, revealing his avatar\'s skull. Even the skull had signs of shattering. However, the backhand didn\'t entirely reach his skull. His health bar blinked red, and he was immediately under 100 HP, still falling!
He awkwardly tried to pull out a health potion from his inventory. After managing to retrieve it, he popped open the cork, and looked at Isaac with a fearful visage. Shockingly, the white-masked man didn\'t even try to stop him!
\'Just wait. Once I have healed, I will destroy you!\' Darkside gulped down the healing potion, and half of his face suddenly healed. However, there were still signs of cracks, like it was made from delicate glass.
After reaching into his belt, hanging from his waist, he pulled out two of his treasured daggers. They were the ones he used to break through the invisible wall in the Spring Realm room!
As he spun the claw-like daggers in his palms, he suddenly leaped, and sent a flurry of quick, and precise slashes towards Isaac. However, at that moment, he infused a part of his legacy skill into the daggers. Hades Reaper.
\'\'Aaaargghhh!\'\' Darkside screamed as the two daggers suddenly looked like two reapers, ready to reap lives. However, as each slash finished flying, they all missed Isaac by a hair\'s length. It was like the white-masked man was playing around with him. Only dodging barely, to give false hope.
Isaac\'s feet danced across the cobblestone ground. It looked mesmerizing. His bored gaze turned away from Darkside. As his gaze went past the shocked audience, he saw Hades, screaming. However, then their gazes locked.
The atmosphere froze. The screens showed Isaac not caring the slightest about Darkside, instead looking straight at the Lord of the Underworld. The rest of the Gods, and Goddesses looked shocked. Since the dawn of the universe, no one had disrespected Hades like this.
\'\'Don\'t play with me!\'\' Darkside screamed while swinging the blades through gritted teeth, \'\'Stop ignoring me!\'\'
Isaac slapped the daggers away, breaking Darkside\'s posture. He awkwardly stumbled backward, almost falling to his back. A shock was clear in his face.
Isaac suddenly kicked the ground, and appeared in front of Darkside. As he formed a fist with his right hand, he slammed it into Darkside\'s torso while using the Death Touch. His avatar shattered like weak ice.
Everyone, even Gods, and Goddesses, felt utterly shocked as Darkside spat mouthfuls of blue blood before turning into pixels.
Isaac then position the sniper rifle into a firing position, and turned to aim at Hades. His handsome middle-aged was frozen in shock.
BANG!
Isaac pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew through the air. As the bullet drilled through the window, it continued flying, and grazed Hades\' cheek before crashing on the far-end wall.
The jaws dropped as a result. The screen captured the scene, and everyone saw it. Spectators from Four Seasons, gulped with expressions shock. Did one of them, a Human, actually harm a God?!
Hades, with a shaky hand, touched his bleeding cheek.
\'\'Hades, should we have the 50th match? You vs. me, what do you say?\'\' Isaac lowered the weapon, and smirked, \'\'Or, are you afraid of losing to a foolish mortal, in front of billions?\'\'
