He just smiled and said
"Congratulations you landed one blow on me but are you sure this is the real me?"
as Ray would hear these words he would be confused as he would hear Murania shouting his name telling him to duck as he would break away from the illusion and duck as a lock of his hair was sliced as Neo had turned his hands into claws as Ray was confused on what happened as Neo just chuckled and would go for a hammer fist as ray jumped back as Neo hit the ground shaking the entire domain as Ray would try to balance himself as they both would charge at each other as they clashed with Ray's Spear badly damaged and Neo's arm being completely fine as Ray would launch
a barrage of stabs as Neo avoided them easily before grabbing the tip and pulling him in close as Ray was shocked as Neo would then punch him in the gut as Ray would cough out blood as he was launched into the air as he would fall down only to be kicked in the face by Neo as he was falling down Ray groaned in pain as Neo would then hit him with a combo of punches as he landed down before landing a elbow to the stomach and launching him back as he chased after him and would continue the combo of punches before he appeared behind him and would perform back heel kick on him in the head sending him down on the ground as Ray's body bounced on the ground 3 times before launching him up in the air again as Ray would be bleeding from his head as Neo said
"Come on Ray show me what you got! if you don't got anything else just say You surrender!"
as nothing but silence was heard as ray landed on the ground head first he wasn't absorbed by the darkness as Murania was confused and worried as Neo was worried as well but Ray would get up slowly bleeding everywhere as he looked at Neo and smirked and said
"I'm going to use my full power now Father hope You're ready"
As Neo would just chuckle and performed a gesture to him to bring it on as Ray would curl up his pointing finger and middle finger and close it with his thumb and point his pinky and ring finger as he would launch
"Ball of destruction darkness"
as Neo would feel a attack coming he would block as ray opened his fingers as Neo was consumed in darkness as it exploded leaving Neo's clothes tattered and torn as he would cough out smoke before shaking his head and stared at him and said
"Who taught you that move this move you just used isn't a original attack now is it hit me with something original Ray I know you can do better than this"
as Ray would stare at him and sighed as he turned his dark spear into a sword shaped as the darkness dispersed as they we're now in a bright arena as Neo closed his eyes from the light as he would slowly open his eyes and look at Ray as he would keep the blade close to him but not to close as he would bend down and turn a bit as he nodded and said
"Witness my original attack and my strongest one i can't perform any other original attacks for my ability is Too copy moves and use flames and darkness and light manipulation"
as he would stomp on the ground as he started to charge up a attack and started powering up as Neo felt the energy as he couldn't help but laugh as he raised his arms to the side in anticipation of the attack as Ray would breathe out before breaking the ground beneath him as a giant dragon made up of flames darkness and light was made as it let out a roar as his eyes would change from light blue to red black yellow and orange and light blue as he would then charge at Neo as Neo would then see the true attack and summon his swords in his hands as he would block the attack as Ray would push him back with the momentum as Neo groaned as he broke the ground and started dragging his feet on the ground as he would let out a roar as Ray did the same before saying
"DEVOUR MY ENEMIES DRAGON OF ERASURE"
as the dragon would chomp down on Neo as Neo would be shocked as a giant explosion would happen breaking the domain as Murania covered her eyes as there was huge dust covering the area as murania stared at it as this was the same attack she got scratched with as she had tried to dodge it instead of taking it head on as the dust settled Ray's sword wouldn't have pierced through Neo but had left a huge gash on his chest as Neo was in his demonic form now to increase his durability as Neo would be shocked by the level of the attack as he thought
"This attack was stronger than that damn Lancer of destruction from Leviathan, even though i put all my magic into tanking this attack and still left a huge gash, whereas the Lancer of destruction was destroyed by just touching my skin."
as he would cough out blood, Ray would be unconscious, and Neo would then just smile before saying
"I concede defeat; he actually managed to damage and forced me to use my strongest form to tank his attack."
as Ray wouldn't move an inch as he was still standing as Neo would be even more impressed as he would touch his forehead with the tip of his finger and would make his entire body forced to be relaxed as he would fall down onto Neo's arms as his blade would fall down too as Neo hugged him tightly and said
"He's got the potential Don't stop training him, Murania. I still haven't forgotten how you crushed my head with a Thor's hammer."
as Murania would be shocked to hear about this, she would start apologizing continuously as Neo would just smile and flicker her on the head, making her go limp, as well as carry them both as he started walking back to his castle. He stopped mid way as he felt dizzy as he would transform back into his human form and heal up the wound, but would let the scar remain As he reached the castle, he would sprout out wings and fly up to his room and place them both on the bed as he would pass out on the floor as the demonic form still sapped away alot of his stamina
[The meeting]
The scene would then shift to the god's as Yahweh entered the god sphere He would look at all the god's as he smiled, opened his arms and said,
"Rejoice my brother's and sister's for the project is going well and he's on his way to climb the top but for now we'll have to make the deity's wage war against him so he can grow stronger, evolve further, explore his powers more and transcend more and more."
as Shiva would smile and look at Yahweh before looking at everyone else and speaking
"Well, then, does anyone have any objections?"
as no one raised there hands before Shiva could conclude and end the meeting, a hand would rise; it would be Iris, who had taken over the goddess Amaterasu's body as she stared at Shiva dead in the eye before speaking
"You will not wage war against him for I will be the one waging war against you, damn God's, who have been treating my husband like a toy instead of treating him like you would to any other soul."
as Shiva would then be surprised by the outcome, as he and the other's would be shocked, but Yahweh wouldn't as He spoke
"Silly Girl, just because you took over a goddesses body doesn't mean you have a chance against us; that will be more than enough to end you right here and now."
he would interrupt as she slammed her feet on the ground, shaking the entire realm as she stared at Yahweh and speak
"I'm not alone in this war I am going to be bringing everyone I know on earth so you better watch your back for I will be bringing different warriors from different universes and I will swear that your cockiness will be the end of you."
as Yahweh would smile and flick his fingers, sending a massive amount of energy at her, launching her back to earth as she crashed in a temple and groaned a bit before getting up and seeing that the people here were just commoners, as she smiled as she would get up from the rubble and spread her arms and say
"Rejoice people for there is salvation for you; follow me and I shall guide you on the true salvation that these damn gods refuse to bring to you as they want entertainment."
as the villagers would be confused but they would reluctantly agree after iris showed her true power's by separating the mountain they're on and making it float in the air as they would train for many years to come as even the children at the age of 5 were more disciplined than modern students as she would smile as the whole village would've learned magic as she would then feel a familiar presence as it was Neo
