"( Damn Waterson,... )" the Deviant Monarch says in Adrian's mind while seeing him devouring Artemis.
"( You just roasted both mankind and gods without any restrain! )" they said being entertained by Adrian's roasting of their enemies.
"( The Divine has been sitting in the light for too long..., they lost their fire, they are nothing more than a snow mountain that will slowly melt out from their wonderful glory. )"
"( As we purged them and their conquered worlds with flames of despair! )" the Deviant Monarchs says.
...
" The goddess is she... " the people below see the goddess Artemis being devoured by Adrian using his Avarice.
*Avarice Teeth barfs*
" Yes! hehahahaha! " Adrian laughs, feeling the Divine Power entering his body.
" Oh, what a zap! " Adrian smiles. "
" I've never felt so much power, is this what it feels to devour a 'real god'!? " he asks in front of the humans below.
" Ahh! Lord Artemis! " said a person as he then tries to shoot Adrian with her Gift but her Gift suddenly can't be activated.
" Wha... what happened!? " she asks as she suddenly lost her Gift Ability in an instant.
" Your Gifter god is dead. " Adrian responded to hearing, hearing her question.
" What did you just say!? " she cries, as she and the others who received their Gifts from Artemis can only fall helplessly to the ground, for their power from the gods has been gone along with the goddess herself.
" Oh, look at you, how helpless... " Adrian roasts them.
" Fine then, allow me to take you to your goddess's place. " Adrian says as he summons [Avarice's Arrows] and shoots them to where the people at.
" Incoming! " the people said as they dodged it.
" It missed... " the people said as the [Avarice Arrows] missed them as they landed on the ground.
" Hahaha, he missed. " said a person who also just lost his Gift earlier.
" Hmph... " Adrian says.
" There's more to it, fool! " Adrian says as from the [Avarice Arrows] made from his Deviant Cells, it immediately spreads thorn and stabs the people with it.
" Garrkkh! help! " the people screamed for the thorns the arrows just burst out and immediately stabs them in such a relentless and brutal way.
" Gods, help! "
" Help! "
" Help! "
" Save us! " the people screamed while Hermes who sees it above the skies, above where Adrian is flying can only see in horror including Hephaestus as they could only look at each other to figure things out.
" What is that!? " Hephaestus asks Hermes.
" I..., I don't know... " Hermes asks seeing all of the horrors that happened in that instance while looking at Adrian, examining his very looks as he wonders what the hell Adrian is.
"( His horns look demonic which means he's a Deviant, but his wings are just like us Diviners, and... huh!? )"
"( His hair, his golden hair... )"
"( Why his hair looks like...? )" Hermes gasps, realizing something for he then walks back.
" Hephaestus... " Hermes tells him.
" Fall... fall back... "
" Fall back!? " Hephaestus asks.
" Yes, but not Olympus, set this flying cannon's course to Atlantis. "
" I have something to tell Poseidon. " Hermes says as Hephaestus activates the teleport where he then teleports the flying Gigantomachy Cannon to where Hermes asks him.
" Hmmm...? " Adrian realized that there was something above him.
"( Don't deal with it, it's already far from your current reach. )" the Deviant Monarch says in his mind which Adrian agrees.
" Losers... " Adrian roasts, he didn't get to see what's above him but knows that the one who leaves must be afraid of him.
As he discards the notion, he then witnesses the massacre he just did as he can see the weakling screaming for the gods.
" They won't help you fools! "
" No one will! " Adrian says as he sees them be devoured by the Avarice Arrows that summoned many Avarice Teeth to attack the people there, those Hunters, Soldiers, and many Gifted humans.
" Fireball! "
" Electric Charge! "
" Attack it, attack it! akh! "
The people helplessly attack the monstrous thing that Adrian just created.
" You weaklings are just helpless sacrifices, aren't you all? " Adrian shouts to the humans below him, feeling disgusted at their weakness.
As he roasts them, he was then attacked by Giant Swords, the swords were summoned out of nowhere which made him so shocked to see that there's some idiot who dares to attack him.
" Wow, look how godly you are, how annoying! " a voice says as Adrian can see him in the skies, floating using flying swords in his legs.
" You're! " Adrian realized who that is.
" 7th place S-Rank Hunter (in Trinia), Arnold Schwert Krueger! " Adrian says as he recognizes him.
" Hmm... " Arnold looks at Adrian with a huge smile.
" Adrian Waterson! " Arnold says, immediately recognizing Adrian in that very instance.
" You remember me? " Adrian asks.
"( Friends of yours? )" the Deviant Monarchs asks in his mind.
"( He is my superior, technically... )" Adrian has to admit it, knowing well his place back then.
"( This rich-family brat, who always thinks that he's superior to me. )" Adrian remembers the old times when he had to submit to Arnold and his parents in order to get some money for the 'Greater Ocean' Guild back then.
"( But now, all of my hunters bullshits are over, now it's time for me to show who's superior. )" Adrian says as he casts the Gifts he stored inside to attack Arnold.
[ Fire Abyssblaze ]
[ Cast Abyssstorm ]
[ Deviant Thunder ]
[ Avarice Tooth ]
" Whoa, Adrian what is that? cool! " Arnold says when he sees it.
" Hmph, cool you said? (this 16-year-old brat! know your place!) "
" This is your doom! " Adrian immediately launches the attacks on Arnold while Arnold unleashed many swords, he summons many swords to counter Adrian's attacks.
[ Summon Legendary Sword: Blutgang ]
[ Summon Legendary Sword: Balmung ]
[ Legendary Sword Skill, Thousand Slashes of Victory ]
Arnold immediately shows his skills as an S-Rank, his sword summons just quickly destroy any abilities that Adrian just cast.
"( He's good, his weapons could be said to be even more powerful than Artemis. )" the Deviant Monarchs say to him.
"( Well, his Gifter is Allfather Loki, after all... )" Adrian says to them.
"( Loki! )" the Deviant was shocked to hear the name.
"( What!? is there something wrong with him!? )"
"( No, it's nothing... ) " the Deviant Monarchs looked at each other as they hear his name.
"( Just devour that brat, Waterson! )"
"( Maximum pain! )"
"( Agreed! )" Adrian says as he fights with Arnold who laughs while fighting at him with his Sword Summons.
" Keep summoning your swords, Kruger! " Adrian says to him.
" Entertain me with those stupid weapons of yours, you 'Overgeared' brat! " Adrian mocks him.
" You two Waterson, I didn't know you actually have these powers, you A-Rank Idiot! "
" To think you had all of these powers but your rank is still lower than me! " Arnold roasts him.
" Well, I'm not like you who just bitch the guys from the high places. "
" If it was not for your god, Loki that always spoils you, then you wouldn't be in the S-Rank, you should've been below my place, in B-Rank even! " Adrian says as he proves his point to Arnold.
" What a freaking asshole you are, Waterson!? "
" Guess it's time to deal with you seriously, huh? "
