GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Legion-5 flashed forward and disappeared. He appeared in the blink of an eye in front of the great god of fire with a fist clenched in preparation for a devastating punch. It was as if he had teleported which is not far from the truth. There was a thunderous crack as the air was torn apart by his fist.

Devoni caught the punch with one of his hands. It was after the attack connected that the booming shockwave of the attack was created. That shockwave slammed into the flames around them and caused the hot ground to cool.

Devoni tried to diffuse the situation. "What is wrong with you? I didn't come here to fight. My presence here is a peaceful one."

But Legion-5 didn't listen at all. He swung his other fist at the grand god. Devoni caught it with another one of his hands.

Devoni finally snapped. He swore at the unreasonable Supreme Beast, "You disrespectful shitty brat. I am a god. How dare you disrespect me like this. I will teach you a lesson you will never forget."

A god of fire is not someone with a good temper in the first place. But he tried to be reasonable. He truly did. Unfortunately, Legion-5 went too far. So he blew his lid, literally. Fire ejected out from his head like pressurized steam and his yellow eyes became brighter.

He has both of Legion-5's hands in a vice grip meanwhile he still has one free arm. He used that third arm to punch at Legion-5's head. He expected a hit since they were so close. He might not do damage but there should be a hit.

But another arm grew from Legion-5's torso. It blocked the punch while another arm grew from the other side of his torso and punched Devoni in the face. Legion-5 finally succeeded with an attack. His punch slammed into the grand god's face with a force that almost removed it from the neck of the god.

Devoni's face was compressed painfully. His head was flattened by that punch and was pushed beyond a comfortable position but Legion-5 wasn't satisfied. Another arm grew and punched the grand god making for a total of 5 arms attached to his torso.

Devoni was caught unawares by the development. His three eyes widened when he saw another arm grow. The fourth arm was still withdrawing after the punch that hit but this one is already sailing forward to slam into his face. He tried to block it but none of his hands could move. Legion-5 had them in a vice grip.

"You bastard." He roared as he used his tail to attack.

Devon's jointed tail extended and aimed for Legion-5's face. He doesn't plan to use it to defend. A berserker doesn't defend. They are always on the offensive. Blood for blood is their motto. But his wish was thwarted again. Another arm grew out of nowhere and grabbed his tail. Legion-5's fifth arm struck his face then.New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.ɴet

Devoni retaliated with full force. Fire sprung into existence around him in waves and violent torrents. He focused the flames on his enemy like a blowtorch focused on metal. The environment became a furnace immediately. Legion-5 couldn't be seen but the ground beneath him had already liquified into lava and was evaporating because of the heat.

Contrary to expectations, Legion-5 was completely fine. The torrent of fire washed over him like water. Physical tentacles sprung out of his body as if he were an octopus. The tentacles whipped at Devoni with enough force to crush a mountain.

The great god of fire groaned and stumbled as the tentacles smashed against him. He took a step back but he didn't stop producing pressurized flames to burn his enemy. More tentacles smashed onto him while the others latched and wrapped around him.

The grand god of fire is 5 meters tall while Legion is 2.5 meters tall. He is exactly half the height of his enemy so there is a large difference in size. The tentacles had to extend themselves quite a bit to wrap around Devoni.

They grew bigger than his arms and longer than his height. Then they bypassed the aura of flames around him to grab hold of the main body of the grand god beneath them. Next, they grew sharp solid spikes that dug into the grand god's body.

The spikes were too sharp. They broke through the defense of the divine body and began to shred it. The tentacles pulled and squeezed so the spikes turned into the teeth of a saw. It was as if Legion-5 wanted to ground the grand god to pieces.

Meanwhile, the punches just keep on coming. Devoni's head was smashed back again as more and more fists grew to slam his face. It caused the power of the fire to increase until it turned from red to orange and finally to yellow to match the grand god's eyes.

But it wasn't enough so Devoni roared in frustration. He has had enough. He roared with all his might. Fire exploded out of his body into his surroundings wantonly. He became a yellow star that destroyed everything around him.

This finally brought some effects. All of Legion-5's physical tentacles were blown away and burned off. Legion-5 was pushed away by the explosion but he held on by keeping his hold of the grand god's fists and tail. That meant he had to bear the full brunt of the flame explosion.

His entire world became roaring yellow flames. The flames were as thick as water and they were pressurized. Even ordinary water released at such pressure will cut diamonds and the toughest of metals. One can imagine just how destructive the flames were.

The flames sought to erode him then there and there. But the black crystal scales on his body kept him safe. The black scales rippled but only that. He didn't even need to spend Origin energy to replenish it.
