Chapter 856: Brotherly Jumping



As the Gojo and Korah clashed, the wedding proceeded as normal, and drinks were brought out. The maids poured the wine into glasses and shared them across the tables.

"It's quite windy." One of the maids looked around, they didn't expect it to be like this.

The two walked toward the edge of the garden, and Korah picked a wine glass on his way. "The blood of the gods. Want a taste?" Korah enchanted the wine with his divine magic and splashed it on Gojo's face.

Gojo didn't bother to dodge and took the splash in the face, punching Korah in the guts hard enough to send him flying through the sky and above the city walls.

Korah gasped from taking the hit, but a smile crossed his face. "I wonder, can you handle that?" He looked at Gojo flying at him. ^With just a bit of divine magic I can make that wine several thousand times stronger. Even the gods get drunk from it, I wonder how much you can hold."

Korah's smile quickly got changed to a confused face as he saw Gojo flying toward him, the word ɅSober^ Engraved on his forehead.

Four six-sided dice appeared floating above Gojo's head and started spinning. Korah didn't know what those things were, but he could clearly sense a massive amount of magic coming out of them.

"So, you've still got new tricks." Korah put his hand together and pointed at Gojo, unleashing a massive stream of divine magic.

The stream splashed everywhere as if it hit a stone, sparking like lighting right outside the city. When it faded down, Gojo appeared riding on a glowing unicorn. The dice above his head stopped for a second at 4-4-3-1 and started spinning again.

The unicorn pointed its horn at Korah and unleashed a beam of holy magic. Its horn has the ability to absorb energy and unleash it again, but the result will always be weaker due to inefficiencies.

6-5-4-1 The dice stopped again and another dice appeared above Gojo's head, a ten-sided dice that quickly span and stopped at 6. Gojo's body extended up, he grew 6 inches taller. And the dice started spinning again.

"I get it! Wild magic, since when did you have that?!" Korah gasped.

When Gojo was standing at the end of the Styx, the river linking life and death, the plane managed by Ereshkigal, he had talked with the archangel Aria and was given several choices. Between the heavens and the planes of torment, Gojo had picked a peculiar choice.

Even though granted the right to access all heavens, and being especially invited by Kali, he instead chose a plane of torment, the chaotic primordial soup of Limbo.

After one look at the plane of insanity and uncontrollable magic, the place where trees grow upside down, and where frozen water boils with meat and turns into sparkling gems of immortal frogs and laser zebras. Gojo's understanding of wild magic started growing deeper and deeper, even more than the time he swapped bodies with Lucy.

The plane of nonsense mixed with Gojo's relentless search for the height of magic, and with his body now being detached from his soul, a power only achievable by transcending death was achieved.

"DRAGONS CAN'T USE WILD MAGIC!" Korah shouted at the top of his lungs, flying toward Gojo with a clenched, fist and swinging at his head. The punch missed...5-2-2-1 His fist slipped past Gojo's body which now exploded with grease and oil.

devour him alive.

Arad had never seen Korah's expansion before, and getting hit with it now that he's using his full divine power from the get-go, might kill him. Gojo abandoned all defenses and lunged forth to protect his brother, engulfing him with his expansion.

As Korah's domain collapsed, he stood in place staring at the two brothers, Gojo was standing in place, his left arm and a large chunk of his chest missing with Arad standing behind him. "Brother!" Arad cried.

Gojo's wounds weren't bleeding, he was already dead, a corpse controlled by his soul and magic. In that state, he clenched a fist, "I'm not done yet, never ever." He smiled, lifting two

fingers up.

Arad growled and stood by his side, clenching a fist, "I'll help."

"Thanks."

Arad and Gojo got ready for one last stance, and even though they looked in sync once more, Korah knew better, they weren't now. Gojo is focused on keeping Arad alive, and thus he's planning to teleport his brother away and attempt one last attack, a large gamble as his wild magic still didn't pull anything great. On the other hand, Arad is standing firmly in place, ready to charge at Korah with full strength.

Just a fraction of a second before the two brothers could charge and start their plan, a large shadow appeared behind them, and they got punched to the ground with a blast.

Korah smiled, "So...I didn't expect you to show up." He looked forward with a grin at the large

man standing there.

"I don't know..." Alcott looked down, "If Arad is my son, what about Gojo?" He stared at them and pulled a strange potion from his pocket.

"You're akin to a zombie, use this to heal before attempting any reckless action again." He

poured it on Gojo, fully healing him.

Arad growled and stood up, Alcott's punch was strangely painful, more than it should be...he targeted the intersection between their brain spine, racking both to the core.

"You might be the strongest human in the world, but what can you do before a god?" Korah

smiled, "You're only good at killing dragons."

"Do you know what the human's god power is?" Alcott said with a tiny grin.

"Chad's power?" Korah gasped.

SLASH! Alcott lunged forth and slashed Korah's arm off, "It's to erase divinity, that why he isn't a real god, but an immortal human powerful enough to stand as one."
