Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 649 - 645: Sacrifice Or Not?

Chapter 649 - 645: Sacrifice Or Not?

G.o.d of Flames conjured thousands of flames that increased the temperature of the surroundings.

Within seconds, he shot all those Swords in the direction of the Warlock Council.

The swords slashed through the air as they flew towards Ja.n.u.s.

Ja.n.u.s dodged the swords as best as he could while controlling the momentum; however, he wasn't able to avoid them entirely.

Some of the swords scratched his arms while solving his clothes. The fires of the sword were so hot that Ja.n.u.s felt a sharp burn that made him hiss in pain, but he didn't stop. Somehow he avoided any major wound in targeting the G.o.d of Flames.

He reached the G.o.d of Flames, who brought forth his Divine Weapons, which was a silver Sword. The silver Sword had a flaming symbol on the blade, which was flaming red in color. It also had a blood red hilt that was held by the G.o.d of Flames

Ja.n.u.s raised his right hand, bringing his own Divine Weapon.

A golden hammer appeared above his head that had a handle twice his height. The hammer looked odd when held by Ja.n.u.s, who looked like a young kid. Ja.n.u.s didn't stop himself as he attacked. He swung his dark hammer fiercely in the direction of the Silver Sword.

The Sword and the Hammer clashed. The Sword had more destructive power than the hammer, but it wasn't able to damage the hammer. The dark hammer, on the contrary, had destructive power, which was lower than the silver Sword but instead, it had the brute force.

The brute force didn't need to destroy the sword, but it was enough to push the G.o.d of Flames back. The golden sword also fell from his hand.

Ja.n.u.s appeared behind the G.o.d of War before he could recover his sword. He swung his sword, which hit the back of the G.o.d of Flames, making him fly towards the Palace in the distance.

The G.o.d of Flames felt his back hurt as he flew without any control. He fell inside the palace, right beside the G.o.d of War.

"That hurt," he rubbed his back as he stood up.

He noticed the G.o.d of War. "What are you doing here? We are fighting outside, and here you are, relaxing?"

"Relaxing? You idiot, try going outside."

The G.o.d of Flames frowned. He tried leaving only to be stopped as a barrier appeared before him.

"What's happening?" The G.o.d of Flames asked. "It's a trap?"

"That's right, genius. He cast a trap here. We can't leave this place. So I wasn't relaxing here. I am trapped here, and so are you," the G.o.d of War answered.

"What? There must be a way out!"

"You can try everything. I already did. I don't see any way out."

"Hmm?"

The G.o.d of Flames didn't give up. He clenched his fist as a fire started burning around it.

He punched the barrier with his bringing fist, attacking the same place again and again.

"Useless, isn't it?" the G.o.d of War asked, rolling his eyes.

"When I can't break it, do you think you can?" he asked.

The G.o.d of Flames lowered his fist, frowning. "This is stronger than I thought. Just how did he make it? Could it be that he sacrificed some of his Divinity?"

"It's quite possible," the G.o.d of War nodded.

"That means we should be able to break it if one of us sacrifices more of our Divinity?" The G.o.d of Flames asked, looking back at the G.o.d of War.

"Don't look at me when you talk like that. I'm not going to sacrifice my Divinity, especially when a battle with Chaos is inevitable. The Sacrifice is permanent. I don't want to be too weak to face him." The G.o.d of War rolled his eyes.

"If you want to do it, be my guest," he added.

Even the G.o.d of War hesitated. He was fine with someone else sacrificing, but even he didn't want to sacrifice his own Divinity.

"What do you suggest we should do in that case? Just stay here?" He asked.

"What's the problem with it? It's not like that guy can take out all the others. He's going to be caught soon. The others would come here looking for us and break the barrier. We don't need to be hasty," The G.o.d of War replied, folding his arms.

"Though I do regret not being able to crush that insect Ja.n.u.s with my own hands. If only I were more careful," he muttered, shaking his head.

"That's true. He can't defeat everyone. Soon, they're all going to be suspicious anyway," the G.o.d of Flames nodded as he sat down.

The two of them had come to terms with their situation. They left the other responsibilities to the other G.o.ds.

Tap~

Tap~

As the two went silent, they heard the sound of footsteps.

The two of them looked towards the stairs.

"It's you. So you finally decided to show your true side. We should've known when you refused to take part in the last great war. You are always against the G.o.ds, aren't you?" Lord of War asked, frowning.

"G.o.ddess of Life, you're not doing the right thing by siding with them. You're actually betraying the entire Heaven for your personal feelings. Did you ever think about it? Do you think you can succeed?" The G.o.d of Flames also asked, glaring at the G.o.ddess of Life and Death.

"Ja.n.u.s will soon be caught. We need him so he'll be left alive, but you... You should worry about yourself at this point. You'll be getting the consequences of your action," he added b

"I'm not siding with anyone. I was a neutral party last time, and I'm a neutral party now," the G.o.ddess of Life and death said, shaking her head.

"Only an idiot would believe that. That traitor was inside your palace. Instead of telling us, you hid him while allowing him to make this trap for us? And you say you're neutral?"

"Didn't I also allow you to fight them last time? I didn't stop you either. Who am I to stop others from doing what they want?" The G.o.ddess of Life and Death replied, sighing.

"But I would say one thing. What you're doing is wrong. And I doubt you will succeed. You can kill Ja.n.u.s, and you can kill me. But how will you kill him? We're not a danger to your life. You're only targeting us because we're weaker? That won't work." she shook her head.

"Just you wait! I'll show you how it works.. Just let me out of here once!" the G.o.d of War glared at the G.o.ddess of Life.
