Chapter 458 - 458: Absolute Derik

Tanatos the God of innovation was the one who created the powered humans with war weapons who almost killed the Gyro gold realm masters, alongside Blink. While many may not remember, Blink did well not to forget his enemies! His eyes let out a silver flash as the God suddenly appeared in his arms struggling to break free. Spatial abilities have been used to perform amazing feats in the past and even the old gods couldn't deny the fact that the cosmic being bearing this power is amazing but they could all swear on their lives that the cosmic being of space cannot forcibly move an unwilling talent from one point to another! Even if it can do it, it should be amongst the mortals, not true gods! If not all the new gods would have been dead a long time ago since they can be picked off one after the other.

"Impossible!" Tanatos found his neck in Blink's arm and watched the youth try to choke the life out of him. Since he has lost a huge portion of his power and was just at the gold realm, even people like Blink can harm the gods.

As the old God of creation and innovation, Tanatos lacked the strength of other old gods but he had his inventions. A mechanical sound echoed all through the skies as a strange white mechanical armor surrounded him.

Bzzzzzzz!

Before Blink could react, he felt a powerful jolt of electricity flow through his hand and to the other parts of his body, forcing him to retreat. The face was covered by black glass while the white armor looked made him look like a man from the future. Blink held on to his hand while gazing at this man with a stern look on his face. After his encounter with the powerless humans, he seriously hoped a day would come when he would meet the piece of #%%&$# who created a weak but troublesome race.

"I won't let this happen! I won't let you horde the God veins resources!" Tanatos roared as his hands took the shape of a submachine gun and released hell upon everyone in his path.

Luckily, Blink acted fast by teleporting away. He appeared behind Tanatos but this was expected as a section of the white armor opened and countless grenades were shot into the air, raining down on Blink!

"You cannot beat magic with science!" Blink growled as his silver spirit energy went wild and all the grenades falling from the skies vanished!

"You!!!" Tanatos was about to act but all the grenades appeared around him, exploding all most once and his painful cries muffled by the sound of the explosion.

BOOM!

Everyone watched from below as Blink's mage robes fluttered as the explosion occurred. A hint of admiration could be seen in their eyes and even the new emperor, Jules finally understood why Derik put these two young men in charge of their military. Cyrus was a bit worried about Blink taking on an old god. In his opinion, even if his strength has been greatly reduced, it's not something Blink and Clovis can ever handle.

"I guess I underestimate our successors…" He muttered with a weak smile.

Gazing at Clovis, he realized that his successor didn't even bother to watch the battle. He didn't have any hint of worry or shock on his face while he worked to complete the barrier around the empire. It wasn't because he didn't care, instead the look on his face shows that this is only possible because he has absolute confidence in Blink. Cyrus didn't know what happened between these two for a thousand years after their death while they were living in Derik's domain, but he was happy these two trusted each other so much that it reminded him of his younger days with Derik.

"Blink… Finish him off and get back soon" Cyrus finally spoke catching Blink's attention.

"It won't take long…" Blink answered dryly while he waited for Tanatos to emerge from the explosion since he knew this is not enough to kill a god.

"Do you plan to keep hiding or do I need to pull you out again?" Blink asked as silver markings began appearing all over his hands making it look like an ancient text which even Derik cannot read as appearing all over his body.

"Don't get c.o.c.ky, child!" Tanatos growled as two blades attached to chains shot out of the way cl.u.s.ter of black smoke, shooting towards Blink.

"Do I look like a joke to you?" Blink's arm dived into an invisible space and from it, he pulled out a black dagger that wreaked of Derik's aura.

Swoosh!

He shot forward and used the black dagger to parry the two blades but upon contact an explosion was released from the tip of the blades, sending Blink flying back with a few burns.

"Don't you dare think a mere mortal can kill a God!" Tanatos roared as he stepped out of the black smoke revealing a white backpack-like equipment and from it over fifteen chains with blades attached to them appeared. He wore a wicked smile on his face as he spoke and the chains kept wiggling and twirling on their own. Seeing this Blink remembered saying this battle won't take long but now he felt like eating those words.

Bang!

The Black dome shattered and a black figure shot towards Tanatos. Faced with all fifteen blades, the black figure ignored the series of explosions occurring around him and grabbed the chains, forcefully ripping them off the enemy's back!

"Who!" Tanatos roared but upon the realization that the black dome had vanished a bead of cold sweat trickled down his forehead. The first thought that came to his mind was to flee but he soon realized that something was off! A formation similar to the one placed around the empire surrounded him and the black figure but this one was performed so fast that he wasn't given the chance to act.

"Spatial magic: Space lock, " Derik said with a charming smile on his face.
