[ Location: Niigata Sea, Japan ]
The battle continues between the White Demon and the Demon Queller, Demon vs Divine.
As the battle goes on, the initiative gods who witnessed it decided to use their devices to share it live stream which goes viral in an instant around the globe.
Everyone who sees it streamed begins to get hyped, it pleasures their gods who decided to stream it to make this entertainment more entertaining to them as well as their believers.
" It seems my believers are getting hyped to see this... "
" Well, Lord Zhong Kui should've settled this mess, before the Tournament even started. " said the goddesses who decided to Livestream it first as well as some others.
"( IDIOTS! )" Loki says as he realized that if the battle between Zhong Kui and White Demon continues, then this would likely be the end of his plot of the 'God Hunter Tournament' in the first place.
"( F*K, if Lord Zhong Kui kills the Demon then the other gods' will continue their investigation regarding the Abyss Tower as the White Demon problem is solved too early. )"
"( If that happened, I will lose control over my monopoly over the other Pantheons as I sustain them all with my support, thus making me able to have the rights to interfere with them. )"
"( Damn it, even though I hate to say it, but I have no choice but to help the 'White Demon' somehow..., at least make his escape... )" Loki says while seeing the other gods live stream the brief battle to the globe, making Loki more furious within his mind.
"( This is bad since everyone is live streaming the battle, I had no choice but to make Zhong Kui lose here with Trickery... )" Loki says as he tries to plan things through, for the incoming wave of gods is something that he never expects before since the reason he's here first with Zeus, Muruga, and Futsunushi in the first place is that those three gods are the ones who could keep their mouth shut and go secretive, especially Zeus whom actually had a deal with Loki that includes the Abyss Tower*.
"( Uncle Zeus... )" Loki tries to call Zeus through his mind which Zeus connects with.
"( Yes...? )" Zeus says, still wondering over his defeat and his lost arms.
"( Pardon me, uncle, I know you're still feeling down as you lose both of your hands... )"
"( But for now, I need your help! )" Loki asks Zeus for help as he tells it all in that very conversation.
As Loki pleads for Zeus' help, Ragna, who had been fighting with Zhong Kui earlier with his mere fists, successfully parried and countered many of Zhong Kui's attack attempts.

" Kehehehe... " Ragna chuckles as he draws it out.
" Oh baby, I miss you so much my first primary weapon (^.^) " Ragna says as he whirls both swords, a recently upgraded version of the Rachnare's Tusk Sword which now exists as two swords.
" What is that sword, Demon!? " Zhong Kui asks as he slashes Ragna with his sword.

" Let this sword quell the very evil that runs inside your blood and blade! " Zhong Kui says striking over Ragna as Ragna parries him gradually.

"( Attacking him using that or even the Black Shadows is unwise for that's what he's mostly good at. )"
"( Guess I have to depend on Rachnare's Tusk, for now. )" Ragna says while parrying, since he knew that Zhong Kui wouldn't stop attacking with his blade, Ragna decides to use the trick he once use in the Tower.

"( Finally I could use this, hope this renders the god enough to be weakened as I had it to the very Air Bullets. )" Ragna says adding the very material to the skill, making the swirling sea Air Bullet poisonous as he shoots it towards him.
" Water Bullets!? " Zhong Kui says as he deflects the very bullets, he slashes them all while charging over Ragna, which actually splashes throughout his body.
" It's over! " Zhong Kui charges while Ragna decides to charge, clashing swords with him so he could make great momentum for him to jump backward.
* Ragna handsomely smirks. *
" Lord Zhong Kui, kill him! " said the other gods as they all cheer for Zhong Kui.
As they all cheer, Zhong Kui then suddenly feels unwell, he felt his limbs uncontrollably, his body is more versatile, but he somehow couldn't control its movements as he also felt that his body suddenly feels so hot.
*Zhong Kui painfully coughs. *
The other gods are still cheering for him, but as they continue their cheer, Zhong Kui suddenly scoffs his Divine Blood as he falls into the sea while still managing to float above it. The scene immediately made everyone who sees it both present and streamed so surprised, seeing it all in great disbelief.
" Lord... Zhong Kui... " they all said while Ragna chuckles and grins over them.
" Kehehehehe... " Ragna says while seeing his System Window.
