"I do not know what you are saying but I do not know you!" Frey stated as the Goddess Freyja did not descend upon her but only a fragment of her.
"An incomplete vessel. I am rather disappointed. I thought I would actually battle one of the famed Battle Goddess." The God Shesmu stated as he charged towards Frey.
Frey's overall stats increased but dealing with a perfect vessel is not something that she can do so alone. She might have a better chance if she were to fight a vessel of a lower god, but the God Shesmu is considered to be the highest tier Greater God. She only parried the attack once but she was sent flying to the other side and crashing on the ground.
The players are in shock to see Frey actually being pushed back even with her strongest form. This was only possible because her stats were also lowered due to the scent. The scent is also giving buffs to the golden warriors of Shesmu and Lebou himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrey rose from the crater as she did not want to give up and she even warned everyone that the enemy is using scent to lower stats in the area. The God Shesmu looked down upon Frey as he thought the fight was boring. He expected more from Frey as he knows that she is a Valkyrie.
"Is that all you got, Valkyrie? It seems that your race has weakened over the course of time since the all-father has been eternally sleeping." The God Shesmu stated as he revealed that he knows of the circumstance of the gods that Frey serve.
"You talk too much kitty cat! I call upon the might of Odin! Hear my call in your sleep and bless my spear!" Frey stated as she raised her spear and an unknown energy suddenly landed on it.
Seeing the unknown energy go inside of Frey's spear, something within the God Shesmu resonated with it and he actually felt threatened. Frey's spear glowed in a beautiful rainbow-colored light as she prepared a stance to throw it into the sky. The God Shesmu knew that he must not let that spear be tossed which is why he hurriedly descended to decapitate Frey.
"Gungnir!" Frey shouted as she tossed the spear with incredible force that it made a sound like thunder.
"I must block it!" The God Shesmu roared as the powerful spear is aimed at the heavens and he also knows what Gungnir is.
The God Shesmu might be powerful, but he cannot block a mythical tier skill easily. He was too late as he did not even collect some of his divine energy to destroy the spear. Even if he did, the divine energy needed to deflect the spear will be immense because that spear is forged by a demigod and holds the power of the all-father.
The God Shesmu got sent flying instead, but he did not crash into the ground like Frey did. The spear pierced the dark clouds above and made the sky glow a golden light for a split second. A few seconds later, large spears made of light started to rain down to the ground. Numerous monsters got damaged while some of the spears pierced the body of the hibernating Shadow of Apophis.
The God Shesmu feared that his master will punish him as its body was suddenly attacked. The God Shesmu then started a ritualistic dance that involved a swords dance. The large perfume bottles that were below started to get empty at a vast rate as the God Shesmu used the contents to conjure a large shield that covered the Shadow of Apophis.
Frey could not attack once more as she is severely injured and is still weakened. She retreated to get some healing done while the other core members of the top guild used this chance to get close to the world boss. The Shadow of Apophis did not just sleep without any defensive measures as the monsters would get enraged every time its body gets hurt.

The field bosses might be powerful but they moved too slow as there were some players that have already reached the Shadow of Apophis. One of them is actually a swordsman holding a demonic katana.
"Kill him!" The God Shesmu commanded his golden warriors to destroy the one getting close to the Shadow of Apophis.
Blade has already reached the necessary distance for his stance. He held his katana with a firm grip and created a powerful slash on the body of the world boss with a quick draw. The golden warriors of Shesmu tried to stop him but he was too fast for them to handle. It was not only Blade that has stepped forth as the others did so as well.
Mariposa could be seen being carried by a swarm of insects as she sent a torrent of them to pierce the sleeping serpent. The monsters that charge towards her cannot even touch her body as she was being protected by a beetle humanoid that seems to have a tough carapace made of black diamond. She is also using her other soulbounds to eviscerate the weak enemies.
The other rankers have also reached the body of the world boss and started their onslaught. Seeing this, the God Shesmu became infuriated as he emitted a powerful roar that spread fear but also empowered his allies.
"I am the Demon God of Slaughter and Blood!" The God Shesmu stated as he suddenly grew bigger in size.
The dark gold armor that he had suddenly became twenty meters tall and he shifted from a more lion form. The God Shesmu released all of his power even if his vessel will get weakened since he fears the punishment of his master. The golden warriors of Shesmu started to transform as well as they started to become demon lion hybrids filled with rage.
