Chapter 338: Assault! Planning to Annihilate All Gods Alone?
The fallen object was a bandage, just somewhat larger than usual.
And because the bandage was gone, residual fluid from the wound had seeped out.
This was the evidence that Sona hadn't been dreaming.
Today, Kuoh Academy had become exceptionally lively.
However, it was the weekend, not a school day.
And those currently at Kuoh Academy were almost all not students.
Each person wore somewhat strange clothing, some quite antiquated.
Moreover, one could see people dressed in various religious-style garments.
Of course, one could also see these types of individuals.
For example, angels with twelve golden wings and halos?
For example, devils with demonic wings on their backs?
For example, fallen angels with black feathered wings?
For example, four-armed Buddhas?
For example, dog-headed humans?
They even saw some dragons?
"Go die, you damned old man!!!"
An enraged woman unhesitatingly unleashed power sufficient to blow away Kuoh Town toward a casually dressed old man wearing a hat and an eyepatch.
However, before the attack could land, the old man casually waved his hand and erased it.
"Lord Odin, please refrain from behavior that would bring shame to Norse mythology!"
Several Valkyries standing nearby looked on with dark expressions at their master, the Norse God Odin.
He had gone to harass goddesses from other mythologies.
"If you continue like this, we'll have no choice but to restrain you!!!"
The Valkyries actually produced some equipment, seemingly not joking.
"Uh, this is something Rossweisse left behind, what has that girl been up to!"
Odin immediately recognized it as a tool containing numerous sealing spells.
So he just curled his lip—better not provoke anyone further, or he might really get restrained by his own people and lose face.
"Old man, don't cause trouble in this kind of setting"
A voice said with a bitter laugh.
"Yo, long time no see, Azazel, Baraqiel."
Odin greeted the two fallen angel executives, then slung his arm around the shoulder of the seemingly carefree fallen angel Azazel, whispering something while occasionally flashing a grin that women would find distasteful.
Consequently, Baraqiel, who was standing nearby, felt quite awkward.
Suddenly spotting a familiar figure, Baraqiel' expression shifted slightly as he stepped forward.
"Su—Suzaku, you're here too."
He had almost mistaken her. The woman before him, who bore a striking resemblance to his daughter, was Suzaku—his wife's sister's daughter.
"Long time no see, Uncle. If you're looking for Akeno, she's in that area."
Suzaku pointed in a direction, and coincidentally, Akeno was just visible there.
Noticing the attention directed her way, Akeno's face turned cold upon seeing her father. She immediately turned and walked away, leaving her father with a bitter smile.
Suzaku understood why Akeno harbored such resentment toward her father—Akeno had always blamed him for her mother's death.
Suddenly, the surrounding noise seemed to vanish, and the atmosphere grew tense.
The cause of this shift was the appearance of a young man who radiated an aura of destruction.
"I never expected you to come personally, Lord Shiva~"
The first to react was the angel with twelve golden wings—Michael, who promptly stepped forward to greet him.
This young man was the God of Destruction—Shiva.
He was arguably the strongest existence in this world today, second only to the Dragon God.
"With something like this happening, how could I not be interested? Especially that world's Final Battle Between Humans and Gods."
Shiva's words left most of the gods present both startled and bewildered.
While they understood it might involve another world, none had heard of any Ragnarok.
Clearly, the angels, as the hosts, had not disclosed all the details to most of the gods.
For deities like Shiva, however, more information had likely been shared.
"Moreover, I quite want to meet him."
As he spoke of "him," Shiva released a powerful wave of energy that startled everyone around.
"Lord Shiva!!!"
Michael, widely known as a kind-hearted soul, suddenly hardened his expression, seemingly confronting Shiva.
Thus, some gods were aware of what was happening.
The "he" Shiva referred to was likely King Solomon, rumored to have slain Indra, which piqued Shiva's interest.
Michael, concerned that Shiva might act against Solomon, issued a warning.
"Rest assured, I won't act recklessly. I'm not as discourteous as that fellow Indra,"
Shiva spread his hands and spoke, retracting his aura.
It was said that Indra's death was primarily due to a measure left behind by the God of the Bible, but Shiva had an intuition that it was actually King Solomon himself who slew Indra.
Suddenly sensing something, Shiva's expression tightened, and he immediately looked up at the sky.
There in the sky, a figure cloaked in black robes extended a mechanical-like arm from within the cloak?
In the next instant, a flash of light—
"...BOOM——!!!!"
The sky seemed on the verge of being blasted apart, and most of the gods present turned pale.
The majority of the gods hadn't even noticed the unusual figure in the sky, let alone reacted to its attack.
Only after the explosion did they realize someone had attacked, and the attack was terrifyingly powerful—enough to obliterate the entire country.
Damn it, who was it?
"This attack is truly bizarre—it's not spiritual energy, demonic energy, magical power, or celestial arts!"
The one clicking his tongue in disbelief was Odin, who had intercepted the attack.
More importantly, as he spoke these words, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. He had forcibly withstood an attack that, if not handled carefully, could have killed a chief god.
No, to be precise, some weaker chief gods would have been instantly annihilated by this strike.
So, who was the attacker?
As the light blast dissipated, the figure was fully exposed.
The black robes that should have been draped over it were reduced to ashes in the impact, revealing the concealed appearance.
It was a humanoid form constructed entirely of machinery!
That must be the mechanical lifeform Michael had mentioned, right?
It appeared so boldly, alone and confident it could annihilate all the gods here?
