Chereads / R in Nethoria / Chapter 17 - Good Old Times

Chapter 17 - Good Old Times

Cratos' aura became bigger. His eyes rolled back.

Then Cratos' aura sent a hard wave that cleared all illusion Lokis from the battlefield. That leaves the only and real Loki.

Cratos dashed toward Loki, swinging his bloodthirsty blades.

Loki acted first. Cratos gave Loki a hard time running from him.

But eventually, Loki tripped off and Cratos caught him.

At that moment, Loki knew he fucked up.

Cratos slaughtered Loki, crushed every bone, stomped his skull, and slashed his face.

He did it for hours. Loki, the God of Mischief couldn't even be remembered. Only a deceased corpse was left.

But Cratos' anger was not over yet. He was now targeting the main city of Velheim.

Velheim is 10 miles far from the center of Chronos. That means Cratos had to travel from the far west of Chronos to the center.

It would take 8 hours if he just walked. But the anger was fueling the Blades of Madness and the Blades were giving Cratos power.

Cratos gained superhuman strength, and addiction to his original beast strength. It won't take longer than 3 hours.

Elemental Mages from Valheim had already heard about a wild beast living in the west forest of Chronos. Now that beast was coming toward them.

The only way to stop him was to kill him but the mages knew it would shed lots of blood and most of them would be dead.

Among them, two people volunteered to stop Cratos. Both of them were only 25 years old.

Cratos leaped over and over again from the west Chronos to the Center.

"Flame Art: Hell Boundary!"

Flames surrounded Cratos. But Cratos just leaped over the flames.

"Told ya, he would jump over it. He's someone who can be stopped with elements. Let me handle this, Merlin. I was considered the strongest. You know that right?" The woman of the two mocked the other one, Merlin, and jumped with her insane strength toward Cratos.

"Yeah, yeah. I don't know why Master wants me to volunteer when my elements can't stop Cratos." Merlin sat down on the cliff.

A blow hit on the face of Cratos and sent Cratos flying.

Cratos stood up and found who hit him.

"Hey, big guy. I'm here. Let's end this quickly. I have to try modern things of the age." the woman stretched her muscles in tension.

"Rahhhhh!!!" Cratos ran toward her and almost blow a punch at her face.

She swiftly avoided keeping contact with Cratos. The anger in Cratos got more heated.

Cratos became faster and faster but didn't get near the woman's speed.

The anger in Cratos became exhausted.

"Hey, is that all you got? Ok, Let me sing a melancholy for you to sleep. "Cell Art: Accelerate Muscle"

The woman slowly flicked her finger on Cratos' forehead. Cratos was dragged to the ground by a force from a middle finger flick. The path formed from it became a wide long gully. Later on, the gully is called "Flick Gully" to this day.

Cratos didn't move again. His heart stopped too.

"Ha... Now I know why Master sent me with you all the time." Merlin walked to Cratos and casted spells "Water Act: Germicide" and "Electric Act: Cardioversion".

"Eli. Don't just stand there. Come help me. This is all your doing." Merlin scolded Elizabeth.

"Hehe, move a little. Cell Art: Rapid Movement" Eli sat near Cratos and touched Cratos' heart with rapid movement of fingers.

Cratos' heart beat again.

His eyes opened. "Where am I? Who are you guys?"

"Wow, he's speaking like he didn't cause anything at all. Unbelievable. " Eli stood and shook the dust off.

"I'm sorry. I should go." Cratos apologized and tried to get up. But his whole body was stomped over and over again from the leg.

"What's wrong with my body?" Cratos was in pain but he was amazed by someone who could do this to him.

"It's me, hehe sorry. You almost die if it wasn't for Merlin. I'm really sorry." Eli blushingly said.

Cratos was so full of himself. He thought of himself as the strongest and because of that, when he went wild, he thought no one could ever stop him. That's why he went into the forest alone.

But seeing someone who could stop him, his desire for wanting friends had hope once again.

"Who are you guys?" Cratos wondered.

"We are just someone sent by a God-like being."

From then on, Cratos went together with Merlin and Elizabeth. Not long after that, Cratos and Eli fell in love and had a daughter right after their first anniversary.

Cratos was speechless when he saw his wife, Eli gave birth to their girl herself without passing out.

One year later, one night, Merlin was away.

A bright light descended from the sky into the garden of Cratos and Eli's house.

Then suddenly the ceilings and the wall disappeared.

Cratos went carried his daughter and Eli prepared to fight.

"The thorn in the way of Gods should be removed," A voice on the light said. "Give us the child."

"Yeah? Try yourself. It won't be easy." Eli shouted.

" Come!" The light disappeared. Eli and their daughter as well. Cratos couldn't catch a trace of what had happened. Then a thundering sound came from the mountain behind Cratos.

Cratos rushed to the place where the sound came from.

At the place the sound came from, " Give my daughter back. Blurgh!" Eli vomited lots of blood.

" She will be a hinder for Leviathan. She must be killed." The unknown god formed a spike in the air.

"Raghhhh!" Cratos ran, kicked the god, and caught his daughter from falling to the ground. "Eli, are you ok?"

"Cratos, run. You can't win this." Eli said in a rush. "He's Aether, the God of Heaven and Unknown. You can't defeat him. Hold her tight."

Eli kissed her daughter and kicked Cratos as hard as possible.

" Huh, you kicked your husband and daughter? Ahahahaha, you think that would make their escape from me? How will you stop me from going to them?" Aether kicked Eli in the stomach.

Eli held onto Aether's leg and said, "I knew I can't. But she can." Eli pointed over Aether before passing out.

"Long time no see, Aether." A girl's voice came from where Eli pointed.

On the other hand, Cratos was running as far as he could from there, carrying his daughter.
