Chapter 441: An Unending Battle

—

Neji's arrival on the battlefield sent tremors rippling through space. He landed before the colossal Trihexa, the ground quaked beneath him, and a cloud of dust and debris billowed around his imposing figure.

"What are you doing here?!"

"Get out of here, or you'll get caught in the crossfire."

Odinson Thor, the Asgardian God of Thunder, yelled in shock at Neji's appearance, who dismissed the Asgardian without sparing a glance.

Trihexa's multiple heads were focused on this old yet unexpected threat. Each of its dozen eyes burned with crimson rage as it ignored Thor completely.

Thor hesitated for a moment, his warrior's pride clouding his mind. Then his blonde hair flickered as he turned to the figure of his dead father. Not all of Asgard had fallen, if he retreated now and helped the others flee, Asgard could survive somewhere else.

"..."

With a frustrated grunt, he turned around and picked up his father's dead body. The bodies of his comrades remained in the vicinity, but he knew there was no time to pick them up now. He took Odin and scattered out of the battlefield at lightning speed.

That left Neji and Trihexa alone, facing one another as they circled each other in slow movements. For a mindless beast, it sure took its time observing the enemy.

This Apocalypse Beast had a history with Neji – or rather, his Divine Predecessor – where the Biblical God sealed up the beast for hundreds of years. The imprisonment had filled the mindless beast with a burning desire for revenge, but sadly, the culprit for its suffering had died while sealing it. So to find the man alive and more powerful than before, was perplexing.

The beast was not smart enough to question the changed appearance Neji had, but it didn't need to. It could smell the Biblical God from Neji, and when it registered its rage, it stopped wasting time.

"Groaagghrr!"

The beast let out a deafening roar, its seven heads unleashed a barrage of destructive beams in Neji's direction. Fiery breath and venomous projectiles streaked through the air, consuming Neji in seven multicolored beams.

"Enuma Elish."

Within the beam, Neji moved with extraordinary speed and thrust Ea forward. The signature technique of Ea clashed with the combustion of the seven beams, and since Neji charged up the attack quite a bit, it didn't lose against the seven beams.

Trihexa was 'The World's End' embodiment. Apocalypse in Flesh. However, so was Ea. The Sword of Rapture, too, was an 'Anti-World' Sword. Apocalypse in a Blade.

The two Apocalyptic beams clashed. If this was the Rating Game dimension, it'd have crumbled right away, but Asgard was a much more stable dimension. It managed to withstand the clash of the beams, sending cracks across the space that quickly fixed themselves. The world screamed in pain as End met End.

Normally, Neji would never pick a fight with a being so high in the Tier spectrum. He knew he was no match, moreover when the creature was Anti Faith. However, he had similar powers to the beast, he was a good match. So he was trying his luck.

Ah, and. He had a hidden card up his sleeve. "Boost." All of Neji's attacks grew twice as strong. Every ten seconds, it grew stronger.

But Trihexa managed to match it every time as if it had been toying with him all this time. Every time Neji threw a stronger attack, even erupting into all of his buffs and transformations, the beast matched him on equal grounds. "Boost."
