Chapter 24 - Chapter 24

Referring to gods who defy myths.

In terms of power, gods who defy are no different from gods in the divine realm.

However, their personalities or pursuits may change.

Verethragna is the undefeated military god, the god of victory.

According to his divine status, he should be the type who enjoys pursuing victory and crushing enemies.

However, as a god who defies, he is the opposite of the myth.

As the god who defies, Verethragna descended to the world not to seek victory, but to seek defeat.

The reason he approached Melqart was also for this reason.

Of course, the defeat he wanted was an honorable one, not a defeat due to holding back. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier to surrender directly?

The previous battle with Melqart was a draw, a result that greatly surprised Verethragna.

He didn't expect that this god-king of the Mediterranean actually had the power to scatter his divine power into ten parts.

In addition to his surprise, Verethragna began to collect his clones.

He wanted to accumulate power and complete the final battle with Melqart.

However, he never expected that when he was recovering his last incarnation—[Boar], he would encounter another surprise.

A magician with considerable magical attainments, enough to impress even a god, actually issued a challenge to kill him.

After laughing wildly, the god in the form of a young boy revealed a troubled expression.

"One is the king of gods, and the other is a challenger with courage... both are rare delicacies. Which side's battle should I respond to first?"

Like a playful child seeing both Transformers and Iron Man at the same time, it's really hard to decide which toy to buy first with his pocket money.

For Verethragna, both the king of gods and the fool who attempts to kill a god are rare opponents.

Hearing his words, Su Mo smiled slightly and responded in a gentle tone.

"No need to bother so much. Anyway, you are about to return to mythology, so it's useless to care about these things."

"..."

Verethragna was stunned.

He had never seen such an arrogant human before.

"If your reliance is only the magic just now, then you may be disappointed. That trick has no effect on gods."

He thought that Su Mo's reliance was only the super magic just now, so he wanted to remind Su Mo.

If the other party misjudged the strength of both sides, then this battle might not be as interesting as expected.

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to think that gods are so easy to deal with."

Su Mo shook his head.

"Hmm?"

Verethragna's eyes lit up, and his expression was a little surprised.

"In other words, you have other trump cards?!"

That's too surprising.

With human power, being able to master such powerful magic is already enough to be proud of.

Unexpectedly, the other party still has some trump cards for killing gods?

"You don't think I'm going to tell you all the information before the battle, do you!"

Su Mo didn't intend to say more.

Even if Tiga Ultraman's strength is very powerful, it would be unwise to tell all his information.

The powers of gods are very changeable, and it is necessary to be cautious before successfully killing a god.

Hearing him say this, Verethragna showed a war-spirited smile.

"Okay, since you want to fight the complete me, I will grant your wish."

In this instant, the atmosphere changed abruptly.

If before, it was still a relaxed atmosphere with chatting.

Then now, the atmosphere instantly became tense and full of killing intent.

As a military god, Verethragna would not underestimate any battle, not to mention that this time, the enemy made him feel a hint of threat.

"I am the strongest, the one who seizes all victories. Humans and demons—all enemies, defeat all hostile people. Therefore, I will break all enemies blocking the way!"

The young god chanted the incantation to strengthen the power effect.

A semi-transparent golden sword appeared in his hand.

This is the most special ability among the ten incarnations.

In the original work, Kusanagi Godou was able to cheat because of this power.

The golden sword is a weapon specifically used to deal with gods, so naturally it will not be used to deal with Su Mo.

The light golden long sword easily drew a trace in the air.

"Chih!"

This is the sound of a sharp blade cutting through skin.

"Bang!"

This is the sound of the divine beast boar falling to the ground completely.

After the divine beast boar completely lost its ability to resist, its whole body turned into golden light spots and poured into Verethragna's body.

Before the battle, Verethragna decided to listen to Su Mo's request and first take back his last incarnation.

After regaining his full strength, Verethragna turned his gaze to Su Mo.

"Presumptuous one who wants to kill a god, now that I have recovered all my power, if you want to defeat me, the military god, then use all your strength!"

"I am Verethragna, the god of victory and military god who guards the light in Zoroastrianism, the light warrior who protects the Dharma!"

Verethragna announced his name openly and honestly.

"I will do my best."

Su Mo responded without hesitation.

"My name is Su Mo. Although I don't have any remarkable title in this world yet, it is a coincidence that I am also a light warrior."

With a slight smile, Su Mo raised his hand and activated the transformation.

"Let me show you the power of the light warrior that belongs to me!"

"Tiga!"

A dazzling light burst out suddenly.

A giant more than fifty meters tall appeared on the earth.

The red and blue body, and the giant of awe-inspiring level, is as powerful as a god.

034 Status Reversal, Am I the Clown?

A fifty-meter-tall giant is not terrible for Verethragna.

In the age of gods, when he was galloping on the earth in the name of a military god, he had dealt with countless giants.

Melqart, the god-king he encountered before, was also a giant.

If they wanted to, many giant gods could raise their posture to one hundred meters, or even thousands of meters.

Far higher than the height of fifty meters.

However, that is meaningless.

In the battle between gods, too large a body can also bring a lot of inconvenience.

Ordinary giants will only maintain a height of ten meters, which is enough.

The size of this giant in front of him made him feel a little surprised, but this is not the point.

The point is the power contained in this light giant's body.

Verethragna could clearly perceive it.

This giant's body contains almost endless light power.

Although most of it has not been explored yet, the light power that has been explored is already above the gods.

Not to mention himself, I am afraid that even the god-king, or the other gods combined, may not have one-tenth of the power in this giant's body.

Recalling what Su Mo said before.

Verethragna couldn't help but doubt his life.

"Is this the power that a light warrior can have?"

Verethragna glanced at Tiga Ultraman, who was full of majesty and looked more like a god than a god.

Then, he lowered his head and looked at himself, who was only the height of a teenager and held only a golden sword in his hand.

He clearly felt the difference in the power of light contained in the two of them.

Both in terms of quality and quantity, the other party was far superior to himself.

Realizing this, Verethragna, who originally held the arrogance of a god towards Su Mo and thought he could win, couldn't help but have a wonderful expression.

He raised his head and looked at the sun above his head.

"Lord Mithra... if he is a light warrior, then what am I?!"

As the military god and Dharma protector of Zoroastrianism, Verethragna is originally a warrior who serves the light. It can be said that the sun god Mithra is his direct superior.

He originally thought that the power of light bestowed upon him by Mithra was already very powerful, but compared to the giant in front of him, it was completely insignificant.

If it weren't for the fact that the power contained in the other party's body far exceeded that of the gods, Verethragna would even suspect whether the other party was a sun god from somewhere.

It's not embarrassing to have the same identity as a light warrior.

Only the weak will be embarrassed.

And coincidentally, Verethragna found that he was the weak one.

"So, although they are both light warriors."

"But I am a warrior who serves the light, and the other party is a warrior who manipulates the light?"

Realizing this, Verethragna was even more embarrassed.

How does it feel that he, the god, is even weaker than the other party in terms of identity?

At this time.

Su Mo, who saw Verethragna not attacking for a long time, began to act.

He didn't know what Verethragna was thinking.

However, he knew that he had to hurry up.

After being strengthened in the Danmachi world, Su Mo was able to extend the time he could transform into Ultraman a lot.

However, relative to the battle of the god level, this time is still too short.

Generally speaking, the battle between a god and a god killer, spending about a week of time to probe and entangle, is also a common thing.

And with Su Mo's current situation.

Only suitable for a quick battle.

So, without much hesitation, Su Mo directly used the trick that had defeated the monster Melba before.

"Lampert Light Bullet!"

After charging, the blue and white light arrow with very powerful explosive power slammed straight into Verethragna.
