Chapter 806 Return of Murder

Chapter 806 Return of Murder

As the abomination cried, Lydia jumped in and sliced him in half, barely managing to revert back to divine magic before catching Jack and landing on the ground. "We did it!" Jack gasped as he saw the abomination disintegrate.

"This was just one." Lydia said, looking to the side with a worried face.

When Jack looked, he saw a massive hole in the ground. "Arad's clone headed to where the monster's main body is. He wants to become whole again, which means the fight isn't going well." She mumbled.

"If he left before the abomination here was confirmed dead, it's really bad there." Jack said and looked at Lydia, "Can you stop the princess hold now?"

Lydia stared at him with a red face, "Shut up!" She threw him to the side and was about to follow Arad into the hole. "We need to assist him."

"Wait!" Jack caught her by the shoulder, "What could you even do to help?" With a single squeeze she fell on her knees growling and panting, "You can barely move after using that, the rot eats at your flesh even with Asmodeus tailoring it to your body. Don't even bother moving now," He dragged her away, no matter how she struggled, she couldn't muster enough strength to even escape Jack's grasp.

"We can't let Arad fight alone! The real body of this thing would be much stronger!" She glared at Jack, "He'll die! Even if Tempo is with him, I can't see him winning."

"Big words but you couldn't beat him no matter what you tried to do." Jack smiled, "Arad is strong, and he's growing faster than any of us could comprehend. Gojo might be stronger, but he lacks one thing that makes Arad scary."

"Whatever we throw at him, he mimics and uses, he's learning from each fight, and what's more scary, he can mix everything he learned to create new things." She stopped struggling.

"You divine smites are his bane, and he decided to fight you barehanded and started deflecting them without a weapon. Even when you pulled the curse, he ate and spat it back like he did earlier. Most monsters can be planned for, if someone decided to kill Gojo, I bet they could set a plan in a few months and take him down, but I can't see that ever happening to Arad." Jack sat with Lydia beside a tree, resting as he pulled a healing potion for her.

"The way he fights, he reminds me of Adam the father of humanity." Lydia sighed, looking at the sky, "The first man created by god in his shape, a powerful being that had the ability to learn everything in the world, that's why humans are one of the most intelligent races. And after that, Chad, the current human god, also was known to smack everything with his fists."

"Chad? I've read in one of your books that he punched time to move it, you sure that isn't some bullshit?" Jack stared at her.

"Who knows, those were written almost five thousand years in the past." Lydia shook her head, "The only thing I can say is fighting Arad feels like a story from their books. He was weak to divine magic, so he punched it with his bare hands."

"Yeah... that indeed sounds close." Jack giggled.

Back at the university, Eris swung her fist at the abomination's face, caving his shattered nose into his skull with a grin. "Come on! Where did all of your talk go?"

The abomination recoiled back, leaning on the wall. ^What's going on, she's punching me with her mixed fist, but there is something off about her divine magic. After the first hit of Amaterasu's divine magic, there is a second wave that doesn't feel normal.^

CRACK! Eris kicked him in the ear, smacking him into the wall and at Lala's barrier, "Are you this frail weak? I doubt it, what plan are you thinking of?" She grabbed him by the head and smacked him on the other wall, charging another fist and smacked him in the guts.

It was only then that Lala noticed something strange; Eris's divine magic was full, even though no divine magic got past her barrier. Pin had already disappeared into a puddle of blood and Eris fell asleep.

Far away inside Sena's white room, a pale-skinned woman with red eyes grabbed Cain by the neck, choking him. "You old geezer! Where is it, I didn't get it."

"I said stop it!" Tiamat tried to pull her away.

"Let him be!" Sena shouted at her.

"Akame, let me breathe...I can explain." Cain waved his hand at her with a nervous and scared face.

"You don't need to breathe! Where is the portfolio? If I didn't get it and you don't have it anymore, it has to be with someone." Akame, the goddess of undeath, vampires, and undead growled.

"I followed my rules, I swear. She had she had a stronger worshiper than you." He waved his hands, "Albeit only one..."

"What do you mean by that? Do you know how dangerous that portfolio is?" Akame was about to punch him.

"I swear. He was...no I mean she now, that little devil changed after his master changed. But, anyway...she was franticly insane, her belief and devotion surpassed anyone in your cults, and you had no one to match her. And since the one in question already had a connection to the portfolio, she beat you into it." Cain stared at her fist, scared.

Akame sighed and socked him in the nose. "Do you think I'm stupid? Those two reasons can't be the only ones, tell me or I'll make sure your life ends here."

"Wait! You'll really kill him!" Sena and Tiamat screamed.

"I know it has to be related to him. Wasn't it?" Akame glared at Cain.

"Well...yeah. She went on a little rampage when the selection process started, but that was while Arad was with her." Cain sighed.

Akame dropped him, "And..."

"He accepted her, and I can't overwrite him."

"Should've said that from the start. Fine, it'll be a while before she fully awakens if she doesn't have your backing; we have time to think of a solution." Akame scratched her head.

"Sowy..." Cain looked at her with a sad face.

Akame growled, "You..." She sighed, "No, it's my fault, come, let's go home." She carried him. "I'll tend to him for now,"
