Chapter 69: White Beard!
With the collision of the two fists, a loud boom could be heard as they seemed to cancel each other out
"Haha! It seems you aren"t that bad pebble G.o.d!"
Following Edwards laugh, the air seemed to vibrate
At this time, his former tribesmen pupils were dilated as they couldn"t believe the scene in front of them, especially the village chief gaping jaw could almost touch the ground
"d.a.m.n human what kind of sorcery is this"
Cursing slightly, the Land G.o.d felt fl.u.s.tered obviously he didn"t expect his blow to be blocked, but thinking of his prestige, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue confronting Edward
"d.a.m.n human! I"m going to squash you like the bug you are!"
"And stop calling me pebble G.o.d!"
Shouting with anger, the land G.o.d suddenly condensed and earth armour and flew toward Edward
"Haha come then, I Edward have never been afraid!"
Seeing him approaching, Edward did have an iota of fear, but rather felt a certain excitement build up from within him as he antic.i.p.ated the upcoming fight
Thankfully, he didn"t have to wait too long
*Boom!*
Immediately the two went into a violent collision of fists upon having first contact
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
Right hand to left hand, right leg to left leg, as to of them"s bodies collided it seemed that their surroundings couldn"t take the damage as cracks began appearing on the ground after each exchange
"m-m-monster!"
Looking at the terrifying sight before him, one of the villagers watching pointed towards Edward in fright, after all in their cognition only G.o.ds and monsters possessed such powers, and Edward who suddenly gained such strength has most likely become a monster.
Hearing Edward being called a monster, not of the villagers denied it as they looked towards Edward in fear, even the village chief who was kind to him became hesitant when looking in Edwards direction
"Haha human! It seems the people you thought cared about you now regard you as a monster!"
Listening to the crowd talk about Edward that way, the land G.o.d laughed at him with a face full of sarcasm
"Gualala! Pebble G.o.d! Do you really think I care about what they think about me?"
"Remember they already banished me once, now shut up and take my punch!"
"Detroit smash!!"
Focusing his first on the land G.o.ds abdomen, Edward gave a loud shout as he gave a swing towards him
"Boom!" fr eeweb
Not giving him a chance to react, the land G.o.d Immediately flew hundreds of feet into the air due to the inertia of the punch
Looking at the land G.o.d go higher and higher, Edward calculated it would be a while before he landed
Thinking of this he turned towards, the villagers who had now given him the name monster
"Edward, are you okay? We didn"t mean it!"
"Yeah Edward, it was just a slip of tongue"
"Haha Edward we were just joking, I hope you didn"t take it seriously"
Immediately upon feeling Edwards" gaze the villagers started begging him trying to prove their innocence.
Unfortunately, Edward at this moment had completely lost his last bit of affection towards them, remembering the look of fear in the village chiefs eyes just now, Edward knew there was no chance to fit in with them again
"After this I"m going to leave and I"m not coming back!"
"The Edward you knew is long dead and gone"
"From now on, my name will be…."
"White Beard!"
Touching his newly grown crescent beard, Edward spoke with pride
It"s just that none of the villagers mind was on Edwards beard right now, rather it was on the fact that they had lost a powerful source of protection
After all, they had watched Almerons execution and hearing Edward say that he had gotten the G.o.d slaying power, they know what this represented
It meant they could have had someone with the strength to slay a G.o.d protecting them, and since it was someone they knew there would be no need to offer sacrifice ls anymore or anything
Thinking of this, they suddenly regretted their actions just now, however it was obviously too late
"Umm mister White Beard what are you going to do now?"
Speaking up was the village chief, looking at Edward who had suddenly changed overnight, a complex emotion filled his heart
"Old man thanks for everything!"
"After I deal with that G.o.d once and for all, I"ll probably try and become the king of humans although I don"t know how"
"And maybe in the process, I might find a group of like-minded partners I can call family"
Speaking of this, Edward had a look of infinite yearning in his eyes as he thought about the feature
Seeing this, the village chief knew there was no persuading him
"Alright then, good luck Edward and remember this would always be your home"
Although the village chief said this, he knew the chances of Edward coming back were infinitely slim
As he expected, hearing his words Edward didn"t reply but just smiled slightly at him
"Haha old man, I guess it"s time for me to leave"
Looking towards the sky, Edward could see the figure of the land G.o.d falling down
"Oi! Pebble G.o.d, pa.s.s this message on to your main G.o.d!"
"I White Beard would one day slay you!"
Concentrating all the power in his right fist, Edward didn"t give him a chance to say anything
"Power of a giant!"
"End of the word!!"
*Boom!*
With that punch, the being projected by the angel suddenly cut off, however, before ending the G.o.ds seemed to feel Edward looking towards them with a mocking smile on his face
"Your highness, could it be that we"re really going to fall?"
Breaking the silence, Hephaestus suddenly turned towards Helios with a look of fear on his face.
In fact, not only Hephaestus was scared, most of the G.o.ds had similar ideas after all although the power displayed just now but Edward was extremely weak to them, However he did manage to defeat a divine thought albeit from a weak G.o.d
But who knows, Maybe in the future it might be their real bodies fighting against humans, and thinking of that weird power Edward just showed obviously a human but he was using the power of giants and the law of shock fluidly
With so many complex thoughts most of the G.o.ds present became worried about their future
