RISE OF EROS

When the other demigods saw the old human attack with such ferocity, even though during the entire fight he was the calmest, they panicked, knowing that the old man had noticed something.

It was obvious that the old human was the most powerful among them and if even he was nervous, things were not looking good. For this reason, everyone released the maximum of their forces and attacked alongside the old human.

The battle became more intense and although the monster now dodged and counterattacked, he still did not get used to his power, so he suffered more and more injuries.

The problem was that the skin of this monster was very tough and although they could hurt it, none of it was a serious wound, so they began to get desperate. The human elder seeing this said, "Everyone retreat and prepare your best attack. I will fight against him, when you see the opportunity do not hesitate."

Although they were reluctant to let the human elder face the monster alone, they had no choice. It was true that their attacks did not do much damage and they needed to gather and concentrate their power, to do more damage.

In this way, the 9 demigods retreated and began to concentrate their forces. The idea was to launch a combined attack with all their forces that would eliminate the monster.

The human elder on his part exploded with a powerful aura. The other demigods were surprised because the power that the old man was demonstrating was impressive, however, the monster did not even flinch.

It was not that the monster despised them, but that he did not have the reasoning to understand fear or measure the opponent's strength at least at this level of strength. For him all living beings were equal, only targets to be eliminated.

After the human elder managed to consolidate his power, he immediately disappeared and appeared behind the monster's back. Although this creature is like a wild animal, his battle instincts are powerful, so he immediately moves.

Although he tried to dodge, the human elder was faster and managed to hit him. Unlike the previous attacks, this one managed to pierce the steel skin of the monster and caused it to bleed in large quantities.

The old man did not stop there and continued hitting, but this time the monster seemed more serious. The monster had not paid much attention to the previous attacks, because they did not cause much damage, but the blows of the old man in front of him were different.

Because of this the monster was forced to be more careful and dodged the old man's lethal attacks. He also launched counterattacks vehemently, but the elderly human dodged them easily.

From afar, it was seen that the old man was dominating the battle and it seemed that there was nothing to worry about, but those who were paying attention began to realize that the monster was evolving.

The other 9 demigods who were preparing their attacks were nervous because they noticed how the monster seemed increasingly stronger and more formidable. They urgently finished their preparations and waited for the right moment to attack.

Unfortunately, they couldn't find it in a short time. The monster and the old man were so close together that if they attacked, the old man would not escape either. The fists and kicks of the old man and monster were flying everywhere and the battle no longer seemed so lopsided.

Although the monster had more injuries, its stamina and strength were superior to that of the human elder, so when they were seen, it seemed that the monster had the advantage.

Despite that, the old man remained strong and fiercely launched the attack. His fists were precise and lethal, the monster could barely dodge them and that is why the wounds accumulated.

Although he didn't look like it, the monster was a little scared of the old man, since he had already seen death countless times during this fight. Although the monster had no reasoning, it was different from the beast-type abysmals.

This monster was born from the fusion of 5 abysmal humanoids, so it still retains certain qualities of them, and among those the emotion of battle, but also the fear of death.

The rational abysmals are no different from any other thinking creature, that is, they have feelings and emotions, only they focus on war since they were created from the blood of a fallen god of war.

For this reason, the monster was both excited and scared. The excitement came from finding a powerful opponent, but the fear was of death because he knew that if he was careless the old man could kill him.

The battle lasted several minutes, which may not seem like much, but for a high-level battle like this, minutes can translate into years, since any carelessness of milliseconds results in death.

The old human saw that the monster was getting stronger and would soon surpass him, so he needed to create an opportunity for his companions to attack, or only death awaited him.

With that in mind, the old man launched a fierce attack. Palms of compressed air flew from all directions, not allowing the monster to escape and suddenly the old man shouted, "Stay alert!"

Then, a powerful air pressure surrounded the monster, immobilizing it and everyone understood that it was time. The other 9 demigods unleashed all their power and impacted the immobilized monster.

The explosion was so strong that it destroyed everything around. The clouds of dust that arose covered the sky and the old human along with his 9 companions were breathing hard.

They had all exhausted their power and were now praying that the monster had been eliminated, because if it wasn't the case, then, only death awaited them. Although everyone was waiting for the dust to settle to see the situation, the human elder was different.

This old man was powerful and had already noticed that, although they had severely wounded the monster, they had not been able to kill it. In fact, he wasn't even fatally wounded and it made him wrinkle his face.

Again, he looked in the distance at the strange lake that created this creature and couldn't help but think, "What the hell is that lake?", but it was only for a moment and he looked back at his companions saying, "I'm afraid we were not able to kill him."

All the demigods' hearts jumped at the old man's words because they could not believe his words. They were aware of how strong the monster was, but they didn't think that his combined powers still had no effect.

The old human said nothing more and spoke into the void as if he were crazy, "Great Master, will you remain hidden even in our deaths?" The old man's question surprised everyone because they did not know who he was speaking to.

Suddenly a small laugh was heard, but no one could locate where it was coming from. Seconds later, in the place where the old human man was looking, a wrinkled old man appeared, but of tall stature and robust build.

This was the same old man who had defeated the abysmal in the sea near the coastal city of the Cannaris empire. "Boy Salomon I see that you have improved," said the sturdy old man, making the human old man and the others surprised.

The demigods present couldn't believe the way the old man addressed the human old man, but it was the human old man named Salomon who was most surprised, as he knew the sturdy old man in front of him.

"Great Master Sohei!" Salomon exclaimed with joy. None of the others knew this old man, but they knew that he was not just any old man. While they could not measure his strength, the very fact that Salomon treated him with such reverence was proof of his strength.

"Well, don't make a fuss, we can talk later, first we have to get rid of that creature," Sohei said looking at the monster that had lost some arms and legs, but he was still alive and well.

Although everyone was very serious, Sohei was calm, as if he hadn't put the monster in his eyes. The monster on his part was upset because he had suffered in the previous attack, so he was preparing to kill everyone, but when he looked up and saw Sohei, he was overcome with fear.

Without thinking, the monster turned around and fled. Everyone was surprised because they did not understand why the monster was fleeing. The monster had no way of thinking, but every cell in his body told him to flee, so he did.

Unfortunately, Sohei wouldn't let him escape. Waving his hand he created a crack in the sky and in seconds he appeared in front of the monster in the same way that he had defeated the previous abysmal, his arm and hand became a claw that attacked the monster's chest.

Unlike that abysmal, this monster was able to cover itself, so he managed to escape, only losing 2 of the 7 arms he still had left. The monster backed away and in panic launched the most powerful attacks he had.

His intention was not to kill, because he somehow knew that he could not defeat this old man, but he wanted to use the attacks as a distraction to flee. Anyone who saw this would never think that this monster can't think.

The problem was that his plan was very simple and while it could work against others, it couldn't against a powerful warrior like Sohei. This old man casually dodged the attack and stabbed his claw into the monster's back. The monster let out a scream of agony, before exploding like the abysmal one who was defeated on the coast of the continent.

All the demigods were surprised at Sohei's strength and couldn't help but ask, "Who the hell is he?"
