Epic of Caterpillar

Eligos had seen what Hades, and his Gods could do to an extent, eliminating his troops seemed to be giving him more and more interest. To demons, most living beings were playthings or ants. So far, he had seen Hades and his Gods as shiny ants with wings, but ants at the end.

For them to become "interesting playthings" they had to show off much more. Beings capable of holding their own against Demons were incredibly rare, across all of Genesis, only the Supremes and Genesis had been capable of doing such a thing.

And the exception, Kireina's family and allies, who enjoy several bonuses, powers, equipment, and abilities that Kireina shares with everyone, making them immensely powerful compared to the common Great God of Genesis, usually considered the Elite of the World's forces, as achieving Supreme God Realm and beyond is nothing but a dream to practically everyone except very ancient gods, which could be counted with the fingers of one's hand.

"You're not bad... But I want to see more!"

RUMBLE!

As Eligos laughed, the Demonic Tower shook, as demonic, red colored thunder encompassed dozens of Demonic Beasts, electrocuting them and making them scream in agony.

However, they weren't being tortured, their flesh, blood, and bones were rapidly beginning to twist and break, and then they began merging together into a massive Demonic Beast Titan, resembling a chimera of several different creatures together, a complete horror.

"GRUOOOOHHHH!"

TRUUUM!

With a single roar, the monstrosity released a Demonic Aura of such power that it easily reached the Supreme God Level of power, something that wasn't even that hard for Demonic Beings to achieve.

"If you can't even beat that, then I am not even going to bother, you know?"

Eligos was prideful and cocky, as he laughed while glaring at Hades, still without even bothering to move, sitting over the throne-shaped demonic tower, of his own creation and design.

But this worked just fine for Hades, yes, it absolutely did!

"Damned demons... I'll show you! The Gods of Genesis aren't for you to trample all you want!" Hades gritted his teeth in anger, as Zagreus noticed his father's wrath, something he had only seen once before in his life, when his mother was kidnaped.

"Father..." Zagreus muttered. "Is this your true self?"

RUMBLE!

Hades unleashed his Divine Aura, as the power of a Supreme God was released from within him, Eligos eyes widened slightly as he sensed millions of Elemental Particles coming from Hades.

He swung his Divine Relic, a powerful Scythe against the incoming Chimeric Demonic Beast.

"{Abyssal Death God Scythe Arts}: {Tempestuous Phantasmal Inferno}"

FLUOOOSH!

A massive storm of phantasmal flames engulfed the beast, this was one of Hades' strongest techniques, which he pushed towards its limits by swinging his scythe constantly.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Hundred of slashing attacks covered the entire chimeric abomination, as it started screaming while bleeding from every wound, phantasmal flames infiltrated these wounds, making them worse, cursing the monster.

At the same time, the monster, while in agony, swung its massive claws against him, which he rapidly intercepted with his scythe.

"Not enough!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

As he intercepted the blows, he rapidly prepared another technique, gathering his Divinity into his Scythe and unleashing a vertical and horizontal slash within a split second!

"{Abyssal Death God Scythe Arts}: {Phantasmal Cross Guillotine}"

SLAAASH! SLAAASH!

The two slashes merged into a cross-shaped slashing wave of phantasmal flames and black colored death essence, quickly impacting the chimeric beast with immense force, as the sound of a guillotine cutting through flesh reverberated, killing dozens of Demons and Demonic Beasts nearby!

BOOOMMM!!!

The chimeric demonic beast was still somewhat alive, its demonic soul emerging from its dying body, rapidly beginning to fire hundreds of demonic meteors at Hades. "Even while dying, you're still struggling... your fighting spirit is admirable, if anything." Hades left hand closed, as the sound of his armored gloves reverberated through the skies, dark blue phantasmal flames manifested within his closed palm, as he infused them into his scythe.

This flame was composed of his strongest phantom fire, the one originating from his very Soul.

"But nobody can escape Death, not even Demons."

TRUUUM!

His scythe suddenly grew larger, ten times as big, almost reaching thirty meters of height, looking almost alive, as its black metal became fleshy, and it gained dozens of crimson eyes, teeth, and tongues. The screams of hundreds of souls within it reverberated.

"GRYAAAAHHH!"

As they echoed like a deadly chorus, Eligos focus was completely on that scythe, his eyes sparkling with surprise and awe!

"{Abyssal Death God Scythe Arts}: {Absolute Soul Harvest}"

With all his strength, Hades swung the massive scythe down, the demonic chimera's soul and

its dying body instantly attempted to evade, flying around him and aiming at its back.

And yet...!

SLAAAASH!

Before it could even move, it was already sliced apart, split into two perfect halves, soul and

body affected at once.

"Your Life comes to an end, and your Soul is mine!"

Crack, crack...!

The Sound of the Chimera's soul breaking echoed through the skies.

"GRYYYAAAEERGGH!"

CRAAASH!

BOOOMMM!!!

Until its composite soul shattered into countless pieces, accompanied by a massive explosion that eliminated almost a hundred more Demons, reducing Eligos army to less than half. Zagreus, who had never seen his father fighting in such a manner before, was left speechless, his mouth wide open.

"I-Incredible! And to think I always thought my father was a depressed loser...!" Zagreus smiled in disbelief. "Dad's strong!"

As Hades showcased his power and left the gods accompanying him speechless, he allowed himself to smile proudly of his strength, as he faced the Great Demon Duke.

"So, Eligos! What do you-"

RUMBLE!

Hades suddenly gasped in disbelief, as a gigantic pressure pushed him down, almost to his

knees!

His eyes widened; his confidence gone in an instant.

Eligos had somehow moved so quickly he was right in front of him now.

He didn't even realize when he moved!

"Interesting... Very, very interesting! Hades, God of the Underworld...! I WANT YOU AS MY TROPHY

NOW!"

Eligos creepy, aberrant face giggled, as he started licking his sharp teeth.

"So it seems to have worked, we have to-"

CRAAASH!

Before Hades could do anything, a gigantic claw struck him, breaking all his barriers and destroying his Divinity Aura, sending him flying towards a nearby island.

BOOOM!

"G-Gaargh?!"

Hades vomited blood, feeling his soul going through immense pain! His divine body was in

shambles, several of his bones broken.

"Ungh?!"

His eyes widened, Eligos was already above him.

"T-This is... the true power of a Great Demon Duke?!"

All his confidence was gone, all his strength, everything he showed off...

It felt completely pointless against this monster.

It was as if he was facing... a natural enemy of all Gods.

Demons! "Hoh? You lived that? Amazing... The last time I hit a God from this world, they exploded into tiny

pieces~! Gyahahahaha!" Eligos laughed. "How interesting! Yes! This is a good feeling! Hades! Stand up! Fight me! Show me what you can do!"

"Haahh... Hahh..." Hades gasped for air, slowly standing up. "I'm still alive, the plan continues as

it should be, Zagreus! We'll lure the demons towards the planned location!"

He called his son through telepathy, as Zagreus nodded.

"Y-Yes, father!"
