RISE OF THE OLYMPIAN

Diadem raised his hand, and six pillars of dark flames emerged. Those flames formed into a humanoid creature that is a perfect copy of him! Those six rushed to me and gave blinding slash combos that I barely managed to evade and block!

"Gah!"

My <Presage> is not enough. I'm being overwhelmed with those glowing hacks as well as their superior attack speed! Several slice and stab wounds appeared on my shoulders, biceps, thighs, chest, stomach, and cheeks! I won't complain about the pain, but my looks… I look like a bloodied hobo right now!

Suddenly, the six Diadem clones jumped back, and readied their swords to cast a spell! "<Pyro Twirl>!!!" Their voices echoed as flame tornadoes drilled their way towards me!

But in the nick of time...

"<Tarrasque Guard>!!!" Tiara raised her staff, and a hologram shell formed to protect me from those incoming attacks! Afterward, Tiara fell on her knees, heavily panting.

After casting a spell, all the six clones disappeared and evaporated like smoke. It seems that the clones have limited prana capacity since they vanished after casting only one spell.

I was so exhausted too, but I managed to stand up, thanks to my katana as a support. I tried hard to catch my breath. I should be cautious because I can die here. I miss the immortality that Lord Cthulhu has.

There must be some way to defeat this bastard without using the power of a god!

Meanwhile, Amy's fight is going to a stalemate. She already transformed into Lord Freya but the dark woman is matching her battle prowess.

That enemy woman also has a Goddess Core. I believe she is Lord Hel.

Her face is half beautiful and half ugly, for the reason that the right part of her face is a gorgeous blonde with green eyes, but the left part is rotten flesh with red Cursed Guardian eye. Her head has reindeer horns that are colored black, and she has twin scythes attached to her wrists. Furthermore, she has these demonic wings that made her capable of flight.

Their clash is like spaceship dogfights with flying lasers and dark orb projectiles. My eyes could barely follow their movements because they're both blindingly fast. I can only see yellow and dark streaks.

"Kyah!"

Freya got unluckily hit by a dark laser that spawned from Hel's fingers. She crashed on a pillar, which immediately collapsed and made her covered with debris.

"Hahahahaha!" Hel laughed like an evil witch. "You must be crazy for challenging the strongest Norse Goddess!"

Freya, with her remaining strength, stood up. She was barely conscious right now, and there are a lot of cuts and bruises all over her body. Blood is already crawling on her lip. She's near her limit.

Helena's fight is no good like us. She's being pushed in a corner by Void Wolf, who is relentlessly smashing his chainsaw sword. The sword princess can only defend from the enemy's attacks.

"You bastard!"

Suddenly, his little brother; Heushac managed to pick up an already deployed sword-type Weapon Gem from the defeated black cloaks. He tightened his grip as he made his resolve to charge at the chainsaw guy!

"Haaaa!" Heushac managed to make a downward hack to Void Wolf's back!

The attack made the enemy flinch and made a step back, but he countered with a giant chainsaw swing! Swoosh! Luckily, Helena was there to block the attack with her broadsword.

"Thanks for saving me." Helena gave an exhausted smile. "But don't do that again."

"B-But-"

"Leave it to your big sister, okay?" Helena winked at her baby brother. Then when she turned to Void Wolf, she leaped forward and made another swift sword thrust.

Helena must be braver because her current wounds are telling her that she has no chance of winning this fight.

"Oh holy light, heed my call. Blessing of the earth, hear my song."

Tiara has been praying on her staff. When she noticed that Diadem is walking slowly in my direction, she panicked and her prayers went to a form of mumble rap and then raised her staff.

"Pleasegivehopetothebreathrenandhealtheirwounds! <Lugia's Blessing>!!!"

A human-sized white dragon which was made by pure prana spawned from the tip of her staff and flew upwards, circling the hall. As this dragon hovers above us, white glitters showered upon our wounds. It made all the pain go away, and made the bruises and cuts disappear! Our stamina has completely recovered as if we just woke up from an eight-hour sleep! Tiara is really best at being a healer!

Diadem spawned more clones and tried shooting the white dragon with his flame drill hurricanes, but it seems that all attacks pass through it.

"Thanks, Tiara," I said to her as I stand up with my katana as a support. I'm back to my normal form now.

Even if my wounds have been healed, I doubt I have the slightest chance of winning against the Black Flame Swordsman.

But my allies can win their fights now!

"It's true that you may be the most powerful Norse Goddess," Freya smirked as she levitated with the help of her hip boosters. "But I'm not alone in this fight! I have friends who are supporting me!"

"Shut up, bitch!" Hel shouted. She's now drenched with her sweat, and her breathing is a now much difficult. "I'll finish you right here and now! <Killing Frostbite>!!!"

Dark icicle spears elongated from the Goddess of Death's sharp nails, and she rushed forward for a finishing melee attack! But Freya was waiting for this!

"<Goddess Core Release - Valkyrie Crusade>!!!" Lord Freya shouted.

The goddess of beauty closed her eyes and held her heart with her delicate hands. Several astral spirits that looked like herself spawned from her body! There are thirteen of them, and circled around Freya!

Those astral spirits revealed different weapons; sword, ax, halberd, spear, scythe, daggers, maces and other melee weapons!

Swoosh! They flew with a lightning speed and made blinding strikes to the Goddess of Death!

"What the-!!!"

"It's over!" Freya shouted, as she fused the two submachine guns and formed a gargantuan cannon! Together with her hip boosters, it created a triple blaster that melted the enemy goddess!

"Nooooooooooo!!!" That was the last of Hel's scream.

When the light finally disappeared, Hel was no longer there. Instead, there is this white-haired girl who was lying unconscious on the ground. Her dark cloak and armor have been shredded, showing off much of her skin.

Freya's body became engulfed with light, and when it faded, she was back to tiny Amy. It seems that unleashing the attack will revert her back to her original form.

"I can win this..." Helena muttered. "I can win this because my friends are here with me!"

When Void Wolf swung his sword heavily, Helena parried it, but the force was so immense that she was briefly launched in the air. By controlling her balance, she managed to land on her feet.

Knowing that she won't win this way, she made a few back steps and closed her eyes. She put her sword in front of her face as if she's going to pray silently. All at once, light orbs from the ground surrounded her.

"Mother… Father…. Baby Brother… Please lend me your strength..." Helena muttered.

There has been a lot of thunder noises in the sky. In the blink of an eye, the ceiling of the golden hall broke, and a lightning surged towards the sword princess's body! When the lightning disappeared, a completely new entity was born.

Her white armor is the same as of a European knight's, and there are glowing navy blue Aztec linings all around its body. Her one-horned steel helmet has glaring blue eyes. And her broadsword's blade is filled with lightning's might.

"<God Core: Zeus Ascension>!!!"

Even Helena's voice became cybernetically enhanced to sound deep. She looked at her full metal hands and embraced the new power she just awakened.

"So this is the power of the gods…"

In the blink of an eye, a lightning flash passed through the skull-masked Cursed Guardian. It was Helena, or Lord Zeus, who just made a quick thrusting attack! So fast!

"Now you have to show me your face," Helena said.

A crack was made to the skull masked. Little by little, it became more brittle and the masquerade has finally revealed his face.

Helena was stunned due to awe. "Y-You're…"
