Chapter 197

"Do you want to go?" Damian asked, looking at Carol, who immediately nodded repeatedly with excitement.

Cortana had alerted them to the intruder and watched him while they ate.

The legendary Hercules, known for his strength, couldn't help but feel thrilled at the thought of going head-to-head with him.

"Go, as already announced, the citizens are in the buildings. I'll protect them from harm, so you don't have to hold back. Hurry up, or someone will steal your prey," Damian said, taking her cheek with a smile.

"I love you," Carol said happily as she kissed him before turning into a golden streak and disappearing.

"Maybe you're the only one who sends his wife to fight a giant, muscular guy," Cortana said, holding a chicken leg and eating.

"I can't help it. If she doesn't release energy regularly, she gets restless. You know Carol is like an energy generator and a battery at the same time," Damian said, smiling faintly.

"Hm, it's a bit curious how it ended up that way," Cortana said, nodding.

"Indeed, it's really inexplicable. But isn't that also the case with Bruce Banner?" Damian said, nodding.

''Anyway, let's go see Carol fight, she's already there," Cortana said, finishing her meal.

"Let's go," Damian said, smiling before they both appeared in a building that allowed a clear view of the situation.

If he were honest, he would have liked to fight with him, but who made him unable to say no to his beautiful Carol?

Carol, who had flown out of the palace, arrived just in time to see Hercules kick Laura away.

Fortunately, the new armor was no joke, and she didn't actually take any damage.

However, the soldiers with first and second-generation armor were not as fortunate.

Many were lying collapsed next to buildings or on the street with significant dents in their armor.

Without further ado, Carol quickly floated in front of Hercules and stared at him.

Hercules, who suddenly saw a woman appear with a layer of golden energy surrounding her, could not help but take a closer look at her.

"You... aren't you the woman who hit my father?" Hercules said, very surprised to see her.

''If you speak Zeus, you are right, who are you?" said Carol, crossing her arms and looking at him, even though she had already heard who he was.

"Hercules," he said, smiling.

''Wow... a celebrity, the most famous hero, I'm excited, I'm sure you'll fight well,'' Carol said, smiling slightly as her desire to fight reached its peak.

"On the contrary, I'm somewhat disappointed. You don't look like much; you seem like just a woman," Hercules said arrogantly.

Carol chuckled as she landed on the ground and began walking towards Hercules.

The distance between them shortened, and the difference in size became evident.

Hercules was over 60 centimeters taller than Carol.

"You know, if I'm honest, I don't think I've ever hit someone with all my strength," Carol said as her energy cloak enveloped her. The energy became so dense that her facial features disappeared, leaving only a golden humanoid figure.

Hercules didn't have time to react when Carol's small fist plunged into his stomach. For a moment, he almost thought her fist would go through his stomach.

His vision blurred for a second when he felt a strong impact on his back.

Before he knew it, he coughed and coughed while feeling lost, wondering what had happened.

With his vision a bit clearer, he realized he was sitting, his chest and abdomen filled with golden blood as a terrible pain seized him.

He quickly tried to stand up, feeling that the inside of his body had liquefied with the blow he received.

Then his body was filled with a golden light as tribal marks appeared on his body.

With the help of his divine power, he quickly stood up as armor formed on his body, and a hammer appeared in his hand.

He still felt his mind somewhat slow, making him feel a bit fearful. He wondered if he had been close to death.

Passing the back of his hand over his mouth, he again looked at the large amount of golden blood he had vomited.

"What's happening? Can't you even take a hit? I was getting tired of waiting for you to get up," Carol said, looking at Hercules.

Hercules's expression changed as he trembled. How dare this woman humiliate him.

"Come on, stand up and fight. People don't have all day, and they need to get back to their homes," Carol continued provoking him.

Hercules, of course, couldn't take it anymore and launched himself at her while swinging his mace.

Carol gave a maniacal smile before creating a simple shield of cosmic energy and clashing her shield against the mace.

A strong shockwave resulted between them, repelling their arms.

"Now it seems like you're trying," Carol said, smiling before creating a sword in her other hand.

Hercules couldn't help but frown, seeing that he was only equal to his opponent even though he was using all his power.

The divine marks running across his body were his maximum state; no one had ever withstood a blow when he was in this state.

He was actually much stronger than his father, even when his father was at his best, he didn't think he was weaker.

When he heard that his father had been beaten, he didn't think much of it because his father had become weak.

He just thought they were lucky he wasn't in Omnipotence City, he usually traveled the universe looking for powerful opponents.

"Boss! Even you don't believe that," one of the soldiers in the background shouted.

"Brats, I just wanted to inspire you a bit. If you want to be a punching bag all the time, it's up to you," Carol said, pursing her lips in annoyance before looking at Laura with a slight smile.

"You're still as lively as ever," Laura finally spoke, not wanting to say much but couldn't help but laugh seeing Carol scolding the soldiers.

"And you, on the contrary, have become shy. You didn't even greet me," Carol said, looking at her.

"I think it's right to have respect for my superior," Laura said.

"Respect for your superior? Please, we bathed together on one occasion when you got drunk in the mansion in New York. You even said some really scandalous things," Carol approached Laura and whispered to her.

"Come visit me tomorrow; it's an order," Carol said, looking at her with a smile, knowing that if she didn't say it that way, she probably wouldn't go.

"Good job, Frank. You really know how to take a beating," Carol said, patting Frank's shoulders forcefully.

"Is that a compliment or are you mocking me?" Frank shook his head while looking at Carol.

"Who knows?" Carol chuckled before returning to Damian.

"Should we go back?" Carol asked Damian.

"Hm, let's go," Damian nodded. People were already coming out and returning to their normal routines.

Everyone seemed quite relaxed and happy, enjoying having witnessed the fight.

"See you, I'll be back soon to teach you a little magic trick so you don't have to go through this again," Damian said, looking at the soldiers and saying goodbye.

"I need a massage; it was a bit painful to charge my body with so much energy," Carol said, looking at Damian.

"You've been adapting well; you've definitely become much stronger," Damian said, looking at her. Even if her energy was the same, making it denser achieved greater power.

Carol had decided that this would be her direction of development: to increase the load her body could carry to unleash greater energy in battle. Besides, this would make her body stronger over time.

Damian returned home with Carol and saw Cortana being abused again by someone.

Sophia had a smile as she hugged the adorable Cortana.

"I see you've already met her," Damian said, entering with Carol.

"Hm, it's great to put a face to her voice, even more so if it's such a cute face," Sophia finally let her go.

"I must admit you look like a doll. Maybe you're a bit more beautiful than me, just a little," Ana said, looking at Cortana with a slight smile.

"By the way, why didn't you come to help me fight against Hercules?" Carol asked, coming to Ana and hugging her.

"I'm sure you wanted to fight him alone. You know I'm not as addicted to fights as you are," Ana said, smiling slightly at Carol.

"If it were you, I could share," Carol murmured softly, pouting.

"You already shared your husband with me; I'm sure you could share anything with me," Ana laughed softly and looked at Carol affectionately.

"Master, one day you will definitely be deceived, it will be NTR," Cortana said, taking Damian's sleeve and looking at him.

"If I don't see it, it didn't happen," Damian said, looking in another direction.

"Don't worry, master, I'll be there to console you," Cortana said with a wicked giggle.

Sophia just watched everything without words before sighing and going to get something to eat.

Both Ana and Carol chuckled slightly at their banter before looking at each other with a smile.

Only they knew that their love for each other was definitely not romantic.

A genuine affection was born after spending so much time together, both definitely couldn't imagine their lives if they hadn't met.

...

"Sir, what we were expecting happened; Hercules was captured," Hermes said shyly as he approached Zeus.

"Tell me in detail," Zeus said, frowning.

"He didn't respect the rules of the place and fought with Carol, the woman who also fought with you," Hermes said, taking out a tablet he had obtained and showing Zeus a video of what happened.

"That idiot, how dare he go to the enemy's lair like that," Zeus said, hitting his armrest, causing lightning to come out.

"Just leave it like that. I hope he manages to escape; for now, we can't rescue him."

"By the way, sir, I noticed something that I'm not sure I believe," Hermes said hesitating.

"Look, these two people who fought against Hercules, when he hit them, their armor didn't get damaged at all, only a little paint was removed. Doesn't that golden color seem familiar to you?" Hermes asked.

"You don't mean..." Zeus hesitated.

"The metal of the gods. If they're using it to make simple armor, they must have plenty of it," Hermes said.

"That changes things. Tell all the gods of Olympus to prepare as much as they can. We must reclaim what is ours," Zeus said with a serious look.

The metal of the gods could only be created from the corpses of the gods. In thousands of years, no god has died, clearly showing that it is a very scarce metal. Moreover, usually, weak gods die, leaving only a small amount of metal behind.

It would take a few years for them to recover before they could attack together, recover the metal, and escape if necessary.

Guys, I would appreciate it if you could comment on what you thought of the fight, if it was fluid or if it felt too robotic, I feel like I don't have that much experience writing fight scenes.
