Chapter 245: chapter 245- Hercules's Son

Before Taufik could leave, two beams of light fell behind Taufik, and then two people wearing full armor came out of the light beam before it disappeared, both people had the same facial features, both people also had the same round shield with the lion symbol, and what differentiated them was that one was holding a spear and the other had a sword in his hand.

"!!!"

"... So you finally decided to show yourself, do you know how hard it has been for us to find you in these three years?"

Said one of the two people, then Taufik, who heard it, had to turn his body towards the voice.

"Hmm?... And who are you two? And what business do you have with me, if I may ask?"

"We're Alexiares and Anicetus, the son of Hebe, the Goddess of eternal youth and old age, prime of life, and forgiveness, and Heracles, the God of strength and heroes... "

'... Oh-oh!'

Taufik said internally, already knowing where this would lead after hearing who their father was.

"... We are here to claim your head as an offering of our revenge for our father, who you killed," Anicetus continued.

"... Well~ That's quick fast, It hasn't even been five minutes since I was outside"

"Huh! Keep guessing, as long as you are under the sun, we, the gods will always find you"

Hearing this, Taufik looked up while tilting his head, wondering if it was the work of Apollo or Helios, and then chuckled

"... Pfft~ And you only found me now? After three years have passed?"

"Shut up! Mortal!! Even though our mother has forgiven you, we are not as forgiving as our mother, today is the day that you and your accomplice will meet your end"

Said Anicetus while pointing his sword at Taufik with full anger. However, his brother, Alexiares, held back Anicetus who seemed to want to attack Taufik directly. Alexiares looked at Taufik and asked.

"Mortal, you better tell us where you hid the "Mother of All" That way, at least we will kill you painlessly"

"..."

"..."

Hearing the threat from Alexiares, Taufik could only remain silent and then looked at Lembuswana who was in Aksara's arms.

"... Did he just belittle me?"

"It seems so... But, are all gods this arrogant?"

"Well~ They all come from the same roots, maybe not all but most of them do"

"I see, So they are Rotten to the root, no wonder they are like this"

Taufik and Lembuswana whispered so loudly that Alexiares and Anicetus could hear them. Your journey continues with m v|l--NovelFire.net

"... What's arrogant meant, Papa?"

"Hm? Arrogant meant that all can do is talk without the power to back up their words, remember, my son, Don't ever be like them, okay?"

"... I will write it down in my memory, Papa"

"That's my son, after all, being an arrogant person will make you unpopular among girls, look at them, Even though they look a little handsome, believe me, they probably have never touched a girl, I'm sure they will be like their grandfathers, Someone who always forces themselves on women, they are the worst of the worst"

Hearing that, Aksara felt a little goosebumps and then looked at Alexiares and Anicetus with a disgusted look, which made Alexiares and Anicetus' veins visible because of anger.

"... YOU!! NOT ONLY DID YOU KILL OUR FATHER, YOU EVEN DARED TO INSULT OUR GRANDFATHER RIGHT IN FRONT OF US; I WILL KILL YOU!!"

Anicetus shouted, then suddenly disappeared from his position and reappeared right in front of Taufik with his sword ready to slash Taufik.

Seeing this, a grin appeared on Taufik's face, and then, with his free hand, Taufik drew his Katana out of its sheath.

Suddenly, time around them moved at a very slow pace, thanks to Taufik's Imagination Magic, feeling something strange, Anicetus' eyes widened in surprise.

Anicetus tried to move his shield, but his movements were very slow, so he didn't seem to move at all; cold sweat began to fill Anicetus' face, seeing the grin on Taufik's face.

"Well~ I think it's goodbye, Our meeting was short, but I enjoyed it, bye~ bye~"

Said Taufik, who then slashed toward the unprotected part of Anicetus' body, namely, right at his neck.

*Slash!*

*clang!*

But fortunately, before Taufik's Katana could separate Anicetus' head from his body, his brother, Alexiares arrived just in time to pull Anicetus back and raise his Shield for protection, causing the sound of metal against metal to be heard, causing Alexiares and Anicetus to be thrown back away from Taufik and out of the area where Time was moving slowly that Taufik had created.

"Heh~ You guys are still Hercules's son, after all, So killing you guys won't be that easy I think... Alright, enough with the little tricks... Let's do a little warm-up, shall we?"

Said Taufik who then released Aksara from his embrace and let Lembuswana look after him.

"... You, what's your relationship with the Horae?"

"Hm? Are you here to fight or talk?"

"

*Sigh*

No matter what, I will force the answer out of your mouth!"

"Yeah~ Yeah~ Whatever, just Come forward, or do you want me to attack first? But I don't usually attack people who are weaker than me first, so I'll give you guys a chance to attack first again"

Taufik said in an indifferent tone, which only made Alexiares and Anicetus even angrier.

"... You asked for this yourself, don't regret it, Mortal"

Said Alexiares, who then threw his spear at Taufik with full force.

*Whoosh!*

The sound of the spear cutting through the air could be heard; even so, Taufik still looked relaxed and only made sufficient movements.

'... Imagination Magic- Space manipulation!'

Taufik said in his heart, and with just one small movement of his index finger, the spear immediately changed direction.

*Swoosh!*

However, Alexiares suddenly appeared beside his spear as if teleporting; with a quick movement, Alexiares immediately grabbed his spear and then made a stabbing movement downwards, towards Taufik.

But once again, just by Taufik pointing his palm towards Alexiares' Spear attack, the attack was immediately stopped, as if there was an invisible solid wall blocking Alexiares' spear attack.

But with that, one of Taufik's hands was already locked with Alexiares' attack, and Anicetus did not waste this opportunity, with a quick movement, Anicetus immediately arrived near Taufik, not wanting to waste time, Anicetus immediately made a diagonal slash.

Seeing this, Taufik only let out a sigh, and with a movement of his hand, he then grabbed the shaft of Alexiares' spear, and with a little strength, he swung the spear along with Alexiares to hit Anicetus.

"... Huh?"

Alexiares exclaimed in confusion, who then slammed Anicetus' body with his own.

"

*ughh!*

"

With that, they were both thrown far away with great force and hit the trees below, creating a crater.

Seeing this, a look of disappointment appeared on Taufik's face, he did not expect that Hercules' son would be this weak, even though Hercules himself gave Taufik a little difficulty when they faced each other three years ago.

But Taufik was not too surprised, after all from their names, Anicetus "Unconquerable" and Alexiares "Warding-Off-War" They were likely responsible for the protection and fortification of towns and citadels, Taufik was confused as to why Zeus only sent the two of them to fight him, or maybe they were just meant to stall for time until the main force arrived? Or did they act on their own accord? Taufik did not know, but according to Taufik, their presence was not even suitable for a warm-up.

"... Weak, you two are too weak; it even made me lose interest

*Sigh*

What do I expect from a minor deity like you two? Here, take your spear back"

Said Taufik, who then threw Alexiares' spear towards the two of them.

However, as the Spear approached Alexiares and Anicetus, it seemed to lose its shine, and then rusted, then before the Spear could hit Alexiares and Anicetus, the Spear became brittle and then turned to dust and was blown away by the wind.

"..."

Taufik, who saw this, narrowed his eyes at the unusual incident.

"... Who is it? Show yourself!" S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Taufik shouted; a few moments later, near the area where Alexiares and Anicetus fell, a crack appeared; Taufik was familiar with the crack because it was a crack similar to the crack that occurred when Heracles appeared three years ago, a crack that had divine energy.

Taufik continued to look at the crack with his katana ready to cut anything that would come out of the crack, but unlike what he thought, what came out of the crack was a Goddess who, from Taufik's point of view, had no fighting ability at all.

"... Who are you?"

Taufik asked the goddess, who had a black-haired appearance tied up in a bun and was crowned with a flower garland; the goddess was wearing a sleeveless white dress that showed off her curves.

Hearing Taufik's question, the Goddess looked at Taufik with a hostile look before she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"... O~ Defiant of Fate, I am Hebe, the mother of these two children, and the wife of Heracles, about my husband, I have forgiven you, so please, forgive these two children, they only acted impulsively, I beg for your understanding so that no new hostility is created between us, and I do not harbor any hatred towards you, and I hope that will not change, it is enough that my husband is the victim"
