Chapter 256 Triumph

Chapter 256  Triumph

His eyes were burning even brighter and his hair was blazing like fire. His body as well as his golden staff enlarged to five meters high in a split second.

"You should know, filthy being," God Kane said in a voice that had also enlarged. "I am stronger than Pele."

Clyde felt God Kane's power increase many times over. Now Clyde could feel for himself how powerful these Celestials were. He said he was stronger than Goddess Pele and Clyde believed that.

However, Clyde hasn't put out all the strength he has for this fight.

[ Strength: 40 > 43 ]

[ Stat Points: 0 ]

Clyde uses his remaining Stats Points to increase Strength. Then he used his Skill Points to increase his two strongest Skills.

[ Burning Hand (Lv. 50 > Lv. 64) ]

[ Pure Lightning (Lv. 50 > Lv. 64) ]

[ Skill Points: 0 ]

Another surge of power flows through every cell in Clyde's body. The God of light also felt that new power that made him perplexed.

'So this is what Pele said. This being can increase his strength in the middle of a battle.'

But all of that wasn't enough to make God Kane feel fearful and choose to retreat. Clyde had left a wound that tarnished the name of the Celestials by defeating Goddess Pele. And not only that, he also forced her to give him an Oath. That is something unforgivable.

God Kane spun his gold staff in the air, a brilliant golden light spread around in an instant and blocked Clyde's view.

'Shit! I have to get out of this volcano!'

Clyde channeled his Mana into both of his swords. Lightning and fire burned stronger on the swords and his body as well. He scattered the lightning and fire attacks around.

*BWOOSSSHH!!!*

Clyde's unexpected attack hit God Kane who was in a dashing position towards him for an attack after releasing that light. Automatically, the light also disappeared, swept away by Clyde's strong Mana flow.

Clyde saw God Kane stop where he was holding his stomach. He saw an opportunity to strike, Clyde lunged and swung his swords simultaneously.

*CLANG!*

God Kane still managed to use his golden staff to block the attack. However, Clyde's increased strength proved to be putting significant pressure on him.

"Urghh!"

God Kane groaned while grinding his teeth. He glanced at Clyde and saw the smirk that seemed to mock him. Burning with rage, God Kane swung an arm to push Clyde away.

His speed had indeed increased from before so the hand swing hit Clyde, throwing him towards the cave wall. But Clyde was still able to plant his feet on the cave wall to support his body.

The attack was indeed quite fast but it was not as powerful as Clyde had expected. he smirked. 'You're not that strong, though.'

God Kane flew up and pulled the lava from the abyss towards him. Golden flames engulfed his entire body. He created dozens of golems from the lava in a few seconds and sent them attacking Clyde from all directions.

Clyde still had one thing to prioritize at the moment. That is a must get out of this volcano. That way this fight will be more favorable for him.

Clyde sent out crescent-shaped slashes with both swords in his hands. The bluish-white lightning and flame attacks struck the lava golems and managed to cut them in half. However, in a split second, they could immediately recover because of the flow of Mana from God Kane.

Even if it was only a split second, it was enough for Clyde to open a way out.

*BOOM!*

After he launched that sword slashes attack, Clyde immediately dashed to the side and shattered the wall that had been cracked by God Kane's attack earlier. With his swords, he hit the cave wall until it shattered.

God Kane cursed under his breath and saw Clyde come out of the volcano. He moved as fast as he could to catch up with her but Clyde was even faster.

*BOOM!*

Another explosion occurred; from the explosion in the great mountain, Clyde shot out covered in flames and lightning. Not long after, God Kane also followed at almost the same speed.

In the blink of an eye, God Kane was right behind him and immediately swung his golden staff.

However, Clyde turned his body before the golden staff smacked into his back.

*CLANG!*

*WOSSHHH!!!*

The staff clashed against Clyde's two swords, creating a wave of Mana storm around the domain. The two of them again engaged in a mid-air battle. Lightning and fire clashed with the golden light, creating an intense sight.

The fight continued until finally one of them was thrown down. It was so hard to know who had fallen behind that raging storm of Mana. But before long, a gigantic figure covered in golden light fell onto the ground and shook the realms of the domain.

Clyde followed shortly after; Unwilling to allow his opponent to recover himself, Clyde lunged at God Kane with incredible speed.

Suddenly giant roots appeared from the ground and entangled his body. Afterward, God Kane came out of the fog and debris where he had fallen towards Clyde.

Clyde tried to draw his two swords to block God Kane's attack, however, the roots entangled him so tightly that Clyde couldn't move.

God Kane came before Clyde and grabbed his neck. "You think by leaving the volcano you will win? This is my domain!"

God Kane raised his golden staff, about to crush Clyde's head in one hit.

"If you die, the Oath that Pele gave you will be erased."

"You said 'If'." Clyde grinned.

God Kane who saw the grin, frowned. There was a sudden uneasy feeling he felt. God Kane immediately moved his staff.

[Title: Limit Breaker (Lv. 2) is activated! ]

[ All Stats (x2) ]

Clyde's eyes were slightly surprised to see the notification. Not just +2, but now it's x2!

God Kane could feel Clyde's burst of power in a split second. Clyde stamped his hand and all the roots were immediately destroyed.

God Kane was thrown backwards; he shot through the forest destroying the trees for several tens of meters before finally falling into the lake.

Clyde felt an extraordinary power flow in his body. This sensation was even more so when he added Stats Points. This happened because all the Stats he had became two times stronger and not just two points added.

He immediately ran to catch up with God Kane. The God of light came out of the lake water with water covering his body.

He came out with an expression full of rage but he wasn't ready when Clyde was suddenly in front of him when he just came out.

Clyde gripped both of his swords tightly and slashed as hard as he could. The slash hit God Kane hard and threw him backward again until he destroyed the forest.

Clyde rushed towards him and God Kane who was already standing came over to him.

The landscape cracked with the residual energy of their clash, mirroring the intensity of their battle.

God Kane's divine flames roared, casting an otherworldly glow upon his chiseled features, while Clyde's body cracked with lightning currents.

The wind howled, whipping around them, as the domain trembled under the weight of their powers.

Clyde's lightning-infused Elderglass Sword clashed against God Kane's golden staff, the collision sending a shockwave that upturned the ground beneath them.

Their movements were blurred, each anticipating the other's strikes with preternatural foresight. Clyde's agility and precision complemented God Kane's fierce strength and divine prowess.

Bolts of lightning and fire shot through the sky, illuminating the battlefield with their brilliant glow, while torrents of golden fire surged like a relentless tide, consuming everything in their path.

The wilderness bore the scars of their battle, the once lush foliage now reduced to ashes and smoldering embers.

As the battle intensified, Clyde tapped into the depths of his newfound power, weaving lightning and fire into a harmonious symphony.

God Kane launched a devastating assault, engulfing the battlefield in a sea of ​​flames and light. But Clyde, undeterred, countered with a cascade of his lightning and fire.

In a moment of supreme clarity, Clyde executed a move that transcended mortal boundaries. With a lightning-infused leap, he soared high above God Kane, his body surrounded by a celestial blaze of lightning. He descended upon his enemy.

God Kane raised his golden staff to meet Clyde's final strike, but the divine weapon shattered under the impact, and God Kane staggered back, his invincibility fractured.

With the last of his strength, Clyde unleashed a torrent of combined lightning and fire, enveloping God Kane in an explosion of elemental energy.

When the brilliance finally subsided, only one figure remained standing amidst the smoldering aftermath. Clyde stood tall, his body scorched and battered. God Kane, defeated, lay before him.

The domain fell silent, as if paying homage to the valiant warrior who had triumphed against a God. Clyde's victory sent ripples through the celestial realms, a testament to the unyielding spirit of humanity against the mightiest of beings.
