Chapter 322 - The Gods Arrived

[ Location: Niigata Sea, Japan ]

Ragna asks was caught off-guard as he was then captured from the back and had a scythe's blade pointed at his neck.

" You talked too much, do you think all of your doings are some kind of game? " Loki asks, luck is in his favor again as he successfully sneaks behind Ragna unnoticed.

" Huh, Oh, I see... you had your luck again... " Ragna says while Loki's [Divine Decimation Dagger Blade].

" This must be fate, isn't it? " Ragna says as he recounts something while realizing in what position he is now.

" What, you White Demon!? " Loki asks him.

" Where are Misaki and Makino, my mortals!? " Loki asks Ragna.

Ragna goes silent for a bit, realizing that this is such a convenient coincidence this is, all of this.

"( Is Loki also the god of 'Convenience' or even 'Coincidence' too? )" Ragna wonders about this, realizing that all of this feels nostalgic to that of Uncle Andrew's defeat despite this being a different version of it.

Ragna remembers the sight of the Memory Records Cutscene when Uncle Andrew is stabbed in the back by Loki with the same blade that now gets pointed at his neck.

*Ragna grins.*

" You are really that lucky, aren't you Mr. Allfather? " Ragna asks while showing his hands upwards.

" Now that I experienced it myself, I realized how the hell 'my uncle' is defeated. " Ragna chuckles which made Loki curious.

" Your uncle...? " Loki asks during his curiosity.

" Yes, you killed him kekeke... "

" Does it ring any bell which person's 'uncle' you've killed? " Ragna asks Loki.

" I'm not trying to lie, but this is the very reason I think it's nostalgic which made me chuckle as I see you. " Ragna chuckles while staring at Loki.

" Hmph, I've killed so many 'uncles' before, Demon! "

" Not just from your kind, but from the humans even my fellow gods too! "

" Do you think just mentioning your family member that I might've killed, will make me stutter in my threat? " Loki points the blade further into Ragna's neck.

" Geez, you're really that annoying, aren't you? " Ragna responds as he gets a letdown.

" Just like Ares, you're really such a letdown but more fortunate... "

" Why not try to even make some guess? "

" At least try to hype things up a little bit, would ya!? "

" Ass-gardian Allfather!? " Ragna teases the god.

" The gods are coming right, so I guess you all might've wanted to capture me before the 'God Hunter Tournament' even started. "

" Which makes me wonder, Lord Loki... " Ragna says suddenly.

" Will this make your 'followers', the 'Hunters' and all Gifted People across the globe..., disappointed? " Ragna asks which made Loki startled.

" What do you- "

" You will lose a lot of followers, you know? " Ragna says to him, tilting his head as he looks back at Loki behind him and winks.

" Since you already ruined the 'greatest essence' of the Tournament before it started. " Ragna says which made Loki stutter and begin to lose grip over his specter as he begins to move away the blade from Ragna's neck.

"( Dammit, he's right! )"

"( If I made the gods capture him now, then the reason for the Tournament in the first place will be lost... )"

"( If that happens, then the other gods will continue their desire to investigate all traces regarding the Abyss Tower which could lead back to me, for that's the reason I made that bullshit Tournament in the first place...! )"

"( Darn! )" Loki says as he also feels that he couldn't hurt the White Demon, for now, his hands are shaking.

"( So it does really affect him? )" Ragna asks, realizing what's going on.

The reason why he had to mention the 'Tournament' is because he knows that is Loki's greatest weakness for now, just as he had seen from the Twelve Eye during the 'Aether Metamorphosis Ritual'.

"( It is just like what I've seen, Loki needs me for his own plot. )"

"( Besides making me the world's enemy for now, there's also that 'thing' with my uncle that should've made him unable to hurt me. )" Ragna says as he realized that thanks to Uncle Andrew, it seems he succeeded in making Loki unwillingly gave his luck towards Ragna through him.

"( The 'Blood Vow'*... )" Ragna says to himself.

"( The vow not only miraculously affects those who make it but also those related by blood seen from how serious the vow was made at that time. )" Ragna says while recounting again.

" Kekeke... "

" So are you going to release me now? " Ragna asks Loki.

" I could punch you if you like, make you seem going to die before the gods arrived. "

" Besides, after watching the news about the Tournament, I believe you really wanted me to become the world's enemy, for now... "

" Why? " Ragna asks Loki and the god gets shivered as he is somehow unable to move a muscle to hurt Ragna.

"( What's going on? Why can't I move a muscle? )" Loki asks himself as he feels so stunned and frozen.

"( White Demon, what the hell did you do? )" Loki asks while Ragna prepares his attacks, but then.

" Shit, why do things really go on your way Asgardian Lord? " Ragna asks as he realizes that he already wastes his time, despite him already being freed from Loki's [Divine Decimation Dagger Blade].

< (!) Message (!) >

< Incoming Wave of Gods! >

"( Yes, I know... )"

"( I'm f#ked, after getting lucked! )" Ragna says as the gods came into his position, seeing what just happened.

" Lord Zeus! " Athena who just came says as she descends to see the Asgardian Allfather end him while seeing him lose both of his arms.

" Allfather, what happened!? " Athena, being the good daughter to Zeus, asks him.

" It's the White Demon! " said another god who also descend from the skies.

< Scanning >

< Name: Lord Zhong Kui, the Demon Queller >

< Title: Demon Queller >

< Level: 200 >

< Age: Unknown >

< Sex: Male >

< Race: Diviners >

< Pantheon: Heavenly Palace >

" Oh my, it seems I get my own antithesis here... " Ragna says as he sees the descending god, the Demon Queller, which means he must've been the type of god who loves to slay demons, both real or fake.

" This the end for you, White Demon! "

" Surrender, before I force my hand! " Lord Zhong Kui says to Ragna with the great pressure that he releases to make him threatened, but sadly.

"( Tsk, I already faced Zeus...! )"

"( Even though I didn't kill him as well as the other three which you see still float in the water... )"

"( After the battle, I believe gods such as you hold no water to make me scared. )" Ragna says as he grins.

" Come on, then... " Ragna says to Zhong Kui, provocating him, showing the middle finger.

" White Demon you will regret that. " Zhong Kui says as he wastes no time to attack which the other gods present decide to witness as the Demon Queller begins to quell the White Demon.

Extra:

*The 'Blood Vow'.

It happens in Chapter 250: Motives Part 2, in Uncle Andrew's Flashback.

About the 'Blood Vow', there's something that needs to be added.

Since Loki is the one who proposed it, it means that the 'Blood Vow' that he proposed had already reached a 'Divine Contract'*, unlike the usual ones which are usually the mortals first who offered it.

Because of that, it means, Loki's Divine Power had miraculously affected not only Andrew but those who shared blood just like him, like Ragna and his Grandmother, which also means affecting them in some way despite being out of Loki's will.

That's why Blood Vows are usually done by mortals first and not the gods (Diviners), for things like this, might've happened despite the mortal and his relatives might've not realized the Divine Effect.

*Divine Contract:

A contract made by the Diviners (gods), a contract based on the Diviners' own promise, either to their fellow Diviners or not.

If a Diviner breaks this, then it will punish the Diviner no matter what kind of punishment will hit those who break it.
