Record of Ragnarok: Ouroboros

Chapter 7: When I Shine, Darkness Fades

"Very well, I shall give thou a proper death, god of light." Hassan declares his promise to kill Baldr and let him rest in peace.

"Haha. You're an old timer but you can still kick it into high gear." Baldr says as he laughs at Hassan, not taking his words seriously as the god is determined to win this fight to the death.

At that moment, the energy between the two champions reached its peak. Everyone in Valhalla could sense it.

"I might not but admit, clashing with thou hath been something fun," Hassan replies to Baldr, admitting that fighting Baldr has been fun, something that might as well kill him, unlike Death itself.

"Right back at you, pops." Baldr answers Hassan as he giggles and grins for a bit, admitting the same feeling as well. Both of them grow to highly respect each other, whoever comes out on top, the loser will accept it with grace.

"Thanks to you, I can unlock my power once more." Baldr affirms to him, thanking Hassan for unlocking his power.

"I owe it thee as well, thou are quite a fighter. However, this shall end here!" Hassan rushes toward the god, and then lifts the sword upwards towards the right, above his head, and proceeds to unleash multiple long and curved slashes, essentially creating a vortex of energy blades using [Michael: The Archangel That Shows Mercy] at once down on Baldr.

"His attacks got even faster!!?" Baldr shouts in his head before reactivating [Light Bringer], conjuring [Light Bringer: Svalinn] to defend through the vertical slashes. However, the slashes manage to locomote itself, slashing the god's body. "How much faster can he go!? I can't handle all this! Just when I thought I'd caught up, he pushed me back again! He's too goddamn strong!!"

"Never play defense for too long towards the battlefield." Using his greatsword, Hassan performs a massive long-ranged curved downward slash using [Michael: The Archangel That Shows Mercy].

"It's not good, from this angle he can't dodge or guard!" Ares yells as he realizes this isn't good as Baldr can't dodge or guard at that angle.

Baldr then raises his shield to the air, attempting to block the downward slash. "It's so heavy! His power is inhuman!!"

Baldr struggles to hold the slash up before the slash finally cuts the shield in half. However, Baldr barely manages to avoid the slash as it hits the ground, creating a line of craters as a result. "He can cut light now!?"

"He managed to evade Hassan's downward swing, and at the same time. That massive swing has left Hassan open for a moment." Yu Huang calmly states as Baldr is conjuring a large weapon.

"Grant me victory, Thor!!" Baldr screams as the weapon fully materializes a large hammer resembling Thor's ultimate weapon, creating a light version of Mjölnir.

[Light Bringer: Mjölnir]

"Holy hell! Is that Mjölnir!? Crush him with it, Baldr!!" Forseti yells at Baldr to use light Mjölnir to crush Hassan.

"I see it! My chance!" Baldr utters in his head, having enough range to strike Hassan with the hammer. The god then swings the hammer to the left in a swift motion, attempting to hit Hassan with it. However, Hassan uses his greatsword to create three rotating circular saw-like slashes to block the hammer from reaching him.

"It's not over yet!!" Baldr then flings the light Mjölnir into the air with all his might, attempting to hit Hassan with the flying projectile. Despite that, Hassan uses [Gabriel: The Archangel That Announces Revelation] to send out black smoke from his blade, using the smoke to conceal himself for not letting Baldr know his location before the hammer travels through the smoke, clearing all of it. Even so, Hassan disappears from the smoke, Hassan then reappears behind Baldr, attempting a massive slash down on Baldr. Yet, the light hammer airborne itself back to the god, retrieving it before adding great velocity and centrifugal force before finally slamming it down upon Hassan from behind, killing the assassin.
