Life Hunter

"You don"t remember me?" He mocked and released his slaughter intent. The giant reacted badly and rolled his eyes.

"So, you are that one. I thought I dealt with you already" The giant spoke one more time and Arima snickered.

"Did you really think that you could eliminate me so easily?" Arima said and a hooded skeleton appeared above him. The "last painter" started his work.

"That should have been enough to take care of you. You were not even in the earthen realm" Errastas"s eyes glowed and took a step to the front, making the entire planet shake "And even if the guardian of the h.e.l.l gate is with you, right now, he"s just a puppy"

"Haha, you"re funny" Chulainn laughed coldly and a circle appeared under his feet. His fire magic was endowed on his body and his size grew even more.

"Don"t underestimate an Earthen G.o.d. You may have a legend behind you but you"re not in h.e.l.l" Errastas added and the stone around him raised to create real mountains.

Arima noticed that his third eye was his sigil. He took note of that and the sky darkened. Purple lightning fell in no time on the earth, each stronger than the previous.

The earth also started shaking and wind came to a standstill. Arima smirked and the hooded skeleton behind him also spread his arms wide as he finished the drawing "[First Red Art, Ragnarök]" Arima chanted and the world serpent moved once more.

At that instant, everything fell under Arima"s control. As a warning for that, the purple lightning attacked the giant. The sky lit up and Errastas was then surrounded by a prison of lightning as thunder roared.

"Let"s go. Lanya, wait for my signal. Stay with Chulainn for now" Arima said and deployed his ashen wings encased in silver bones. He flew up and became a silver light that attacked.

"You can help me attack, I"m sure you know it right? The third red art. That"s how he calls it. Even I am obliged to say that they are the strongest magic I have ever seen" Chulainn said to Lanya and raised his three heads toward the sky.

He opened his three mouths and a red light escaped his throats. Above him, in mid-air, three small black and red stones formed and then continued to grow bigger as fire surrounded it.

Lanya nodded and traced a red circle above her with her rapier. Like with Chulainn, a strange stone slowly formed and started becoming bigger.

At the same time, Arima reached Errastas"s head and was prepared to go inside the lightning prison to attack but he suddenly noticed that he was in the middle of a huge shadow. Arima"s expression changed drastically and the flames he had for eyes revolved and glowed like never before to the point of producing a purple mist.

Everything around Arima moved for him, the stone from the ground protected him, the wind condensed to the maximum and his lightning totally forgot about attacking the giant as it did its best to create a physical wall.

Errastas"s palm pa.s.sed through everything and just before it hit Arima, the latter gathered lightning in his sword. But that lightning was completely black this time "[Aeterna]!" He swung his sword and his wave of energy hit Errastas"s palm, creating an explosion.

Arima phased his body but was still affected by the shockwave. Meanwhile, although the giant palm slowed down by a lot, it still hit Arima directly.

He obviously directly went down toward the ground and crashed on a mountain, destroying it in its entirety. At the same time, Errastas"s magic acted and the destroyed stone around him tried to attack him.

He could only do his best to use Ragnarök and stop the magic "Back to square one…" Arima clicked his tongue and started chanting something under his breath.

"Now!" Chulainn shouted and the red stones that were already hundreds of meters large suddenly shrunk and huge flame erupted instead.

It was the same phenomenon for Lanya"s magic. The two then started an incantation at the same time.

"[Maior acriorque] (Larger and fiercer)"

"[Quod quia vis accipere] (Take as much as you want)"

"[In oblivionem remittere pergant et deleant] (Release it in one go and destroy to oblivion)"

The four flames created by Lanya and Chulainn started to glow with a stronger shine.

"[Third Blue Art, Fragor Magnus]" They both shouted the keyword and the four fireb.a.l.l.s made a detonation sound as they were propelled toward their target.

Errastas sneered and the sigil in his third eye activated once more. The stone under him moved and tried to engulf the huge fireb.a.l.l.s. But his pupils narrowed as he realized that he couldn"t create a shield because a strange force was holding him down. He was forced to take the magic with his body.

He could only punch the four of them as they were coming at him. The explosion that ensued shocked him as he didn"t expect those fireb.a.l.l.s to be that powerful. He felt a strong pain on his hand and blood fell.

The third blue art was called "Fragor Magnus", "Big Bang", for a reason. Arima created that magic with the idea that it could be charged indefinitely. To the point that if Arima stayed immobile, every day, for years, sending mana into that red stone, maybe he could create a fireball as strong as the Big Bang.

So basically, the more mana you infused in that magic, the more destructive it became, without any limit. And right now, Chulainn and Lanya used quite a lot of mana.

Errastas gritted his teeth as he looked at his fuming hand. He then turned to look at Arima who was smiling at him. It was because of Ragnarök that he failed to use his earth magic to protect himself.

The giant was quite displeased as he started to move seriously. Although he was more than big, and even like that, the image was still too weak, he was pretty fast and punched the ground where Arima was.

The latter flew away from that place as fast as he could but suffered the air pressure produced by the punch head-on just before he sued Ragnarök to calm it down.

"Seriously, that"s too much..." Arima said and looked at Chulainn "Help me from now on. Lanya, I want you to prepare to use the "Unblinking Draconic Eyes"" He instructed and Lanya nodded.

"Really…" Chulainn sighed and kicked the ground. He started running at full speed toward one of Errastas"s legs. His flames erupted around him at the same time and he continued to send a barrage of flames toward the giant.

Arima flew up and gripped Karma with his two hands "Let"s go" He said and thunder roared as lightning gathered in the blade.

"{No problem}" Karma laughed and responded. Black lightning surrounded Arima and covered the entire blade. Arima pointed his sword toward the sky and the blade suddenly lengthened and transformed into a thousand meters long sword made of lightning.

Errastas"s third eye glowed as he looked at the sword wielded by Arima. At the same time, Chulainn opened his three mouths and conjured a terrifying pillar of magma that exploded on Errastas"s knee. The latter grunted in pain and half kneeled.

His body was strong and tough but if he was struck by the attacks of individuals like Arima and Chulainn, of course, he would be hurt.

Errastas ignored Chulainn for the moment and focused on Arima"s incoming magic. He waved his hand and a ma.s.sive ax fitting his size appeared in his hands. He instantly raised it and prepared to swing it down at Arima.

The latter acted at the same moment and brought down his sword "[Procidens aeterna noctem] (Falling Eternal Night)" He chanted and his lightning blade clashed with the ax.

The result was a powerful explosion of energies that damaged the planet even more. Arima used all of his strength to clash against the ax and his bones were already cracking after a few seconds.

"{Chulainn, a little help would be welcome}" Arima called during the clash.

"I know!" The h.e.l.lhound responded as he jumped on Errastas"s body and made his way up by running on his body. He arrived at the chest area and jumped off before looking up at the giant"s head from below.

Chulainn growled and fire gathered behind his fangs. He then roared strongly and three pillars of crimson fire went and exploded on Errastas"s throat. The latter grunted loudly and he lost strength in his arms.

Arima took the occasion and swung his sword, the ax of the giant broke and the sword continued until it left a huge cut on Errastas"s chest.

The earthen G.o.d howled in pain before going wild in rage, he punched Arima just after and kicked Chulainn at the same time.

The two of them flew away and crashed miles away. Arima"s bones suffered a lot of damage but it started healing in a second. It was the same for Chulainn, his healing ability was naturally high.

"{That guy is really hard to kill but he"s kinda slow and his magic is not really a problem}" Arima sent a telepathic message to Chulainn.

"{Yeah, but his. .h.i.ts still f.u.c.king hurts. Don"t you have a way to end this quickly?}" Chulainn responded.

Arima grinned and looked at the giant "{I could use the first destruction art but it"s not really a good idea to use it now. But don"t worry. I"m already working on it}"

"{If you say so}" Chulainn said as he dodged multiple boulders two times his size "{But hurry up, we can"t fight like this eternally. He"s slow but we are not really in a good position when we need time to go from his legs to his chest}" He roared and spat out some huge fireb.a.l.l.s.

"{It"s okay}" Arima conjured "Aeterna" one more time and turned toward Lanya "{It"s time}" He said and sent her some instructions.

Lanya nodded and her eyes slowly changed into a resplendent light blue. Her eyes flashed with knowledge and awareness.

"{Chulainn, prepare the third blue art for two minutes, at that position precisely, and aim in that direction}" She started giving strange instructions.

"Eh?" Chulainn exclaimed but still followed her indications as he moved to the emplacement he was told. He sought confirmation with Arima and the latter nodded.

"{Arima, for this to work, I"ll use the lawless tome. You have to attack him with everything you have in the meantime}" Lanya continued to give her instructions and Arima smirked as he sent his orders with Ragnarök.

The ground started to seriously act against Errastas"s will and lightning finally started to attack the giant seriously. There were now multiple lightning bolts each second that would explode in contact with Errastas.

The latter could only grit his teeth as he tried to punch and crush Arima who was extremely focused on controlling the different elements. Because even with parallel thoughts, right now, Arima was guiding air pressure, stone density and movement, clouds formation, lightning creation, all of that while fighting against Errastas, magically and physically.

At some point, Arima couldn"t avoid Errastas"s palm anymore because to dodge it dodge it, he always needs to move hundreds of meters and he couldn"t keep up eternally like that. But since he was going to get struck, Arima decided to go for it.

"[Terminus Confractus, CCC] (Limit break, 300)" He chanted and mana gathered dangerously in his arms. He gripped Karma and swung it toward the giant"s hand.

When the two clashed, Errastas felt a strong pain on his hand as it was actually pushed back. Meanwhile, Arima"s left arm crumbled into pieces and his right arm broke. He let off Karma but the latter floated and stayed beside Arima as if it was protecting him.

"Okay…maybe it wasn"t worth it. But at least I can say I beat a ten thousand meters giant in physical strength now" Arima said.

"It"s not time to brag about the fact that you discarded two of your members to just repel the palm of your opponent, Arima" Karma brought him back to reality.

Arima"s expression darkened and flapped his wings to avoid the giant"s next blow "It"s not as cool when you say it like that. Stop" He then complained.

"Arima, we"re ready" Lanya informed him in the next instant.

Arima grinned and looked at the giant from above the clouds "Let"s end this then" He said and glanced at the sky "I will rightfully get my little revenge" He declared with a mocking tone.
