"You should pay attention to yourself!" Gabriel exclaimed, as he appeared behind the God of War, swinging his sword, as if intending to take his head off.
The God of War, sensed the danger. With his Flaming spear, he blocked Gabriel's Sword of Darkness. At the same time, instead of moving back, he thrust his Ice Spear spear at Gabriel's chest.
Unfortunately for him, Gabriel also blocked his attack with his Sword of Light as well. Both of their attacks were blocked. However, that was just the beginning.
The two gods continued their battle, exchanging blows and spells. The God of War fought with fury and courage, while Gabriel fought with anger and bravery. They appeared almost evenly matched, both powerful and ancient.
However, that came as a surprise to the God of War. He was one of the strongest Gods, amongst the New Gods, who were born in the last ten thousand years. Yet, he was being held back by a youngster, who was evenly matching him?
Moreover, only he knew that even though it appeared to be an even battle, in reality, he was at a disadvantage, since he had to avoid being hit even a little.
The Abyssal Energy was like slow poison to him. The more this battle went on, the more he was going to get wounded, and the weaker he was going to get!
As true gods, they could almost heal all their injuries instantly. However, the attacks that contained Abyssal Energy weren't that easy to heal. That's why, most of the gods considered the Abyss to be a forbidden place. This was like the natural bane to their healing.
The battle raged on, creating shockwaves that rippled through the space. Stars exploded and distant planets shattered as the gods fought. Spatial Cracks kept developing all around them with each clash, as if the space itself was having a hard time, in trying to keep up with the battle of two powerful beings.
After a long time, the God of War saw an opening and lunged at Gabriel, aiming for his heart.
Gabriel saw it too and sidestepped, grabbing the God of War's arm and twisting it. With a slash of his Dark Sword, he sliced the left arm of the God of War, making his arm fall along with his Ice Spear.
The God of War roared in pain, feeling his arm sliced off! The pain was the worst pain he ever felt in his life. He couldn't heal his arm either.
He swung his Flaming Spear, only to have Gabriel dodge and move back. After taking off his arm, Gabriel immediately moved back, not getting caught in the counter.
However, the God of War didn't let Gabriel leave that easily.
He was furious, and unable to take the fact that he had lost his arm to a youngster who didn't even live for three decades.
He charged at Gabriel with full force, his eyes filled with rage and determination to take revenge. Gabriel on the other hand, was calm and collected, analyzing his opponent's moves and patiently waiting for the right moment to strike. The battle between the two was far from over, and the outcome was still uncertain.
The sound of a clashing sword and spear echoed through the battlefield as the two warriors matched each other's strength and skills.
Unfortunately, just as the God of War feared, he was getting weaker. After his arm was cut, the Abyssal Energy was raging inside his body. His vision was getting blurry.
It was getting hard for him to even remain focused. He couldn't even see Gabriel properly with his eyes. It was only through his Divinity that he could even sense Gabriel's presence.
With time, he realized that the Chances of his victory were slim. If anything, he started fearing his death. Even though he had Divinity, Gabriel could kill him.
"I shall end this with one last blow!" He roared, raising his Flaming Spear high in the sky.
A terrifying amount of Godly Energy gathered around him, condensing into thousands of spears above him.
Gabriel stood still, unfazed by his attack. He took a deep breath. His entire aura changed as well.
A terrifying Divine Energy appeared around him. The Sword in his right hand disappeared. He raised his hand gracefully, using his finger like a pen, and his Divine Aura as the ink to write on space.
The God of War was taken aback, seeing that familiar scene. He couldn't even recall how long it had been, since he saw those Ancient Words.
He was stunned. The only user of Worldly Laws should've been dead already. At least that's what he heard. That person was killed by Janus.
"As expected, it's the Traitors who are attacking us! Looks like some managed to survive!" The God of War exclaimed.
He also felt that they had a traitor in the Realm of Gods. Why else would these people just happen to attack when neither Caen was here, nor Janus!
"It doesn't matter! Today, I shall get rid of the Traitors and their inheritors!"
The surroundings shook as the God of War brought the spear down, shattering the space and unleashing the fury of the heavens.
Gabriel also completed the Divine Word, almost using most of his energy in the process.
The Divine Law clashed with thousands of Ancient Spears. A bright light enveloped the battlefield, and the sound of thunder reverberated through the air.
A large section of the space was completely destroyed, turning into a small blackhole of nothingness. Almost all the gods felt the space around them tremble.
The barrier of the Realm of Gods used the space as a form of energy in maintaining its barrier. However, when the space itself was destroyed, the barrier also became weaker.
Ezekiel's attack landed at the center of all the Cracks at the same time, when the barrier was weakened, not even letting the space recover.
The barrier that lasted for an eternity finally shattered into a thousand pieces... The Shield that protected the Realm of Gods was gone, with nothing to stop Ezekiel this time.
