Chapter 221 Defeat
Magic Kingdom.

Big library.

Hecate suddenly stopped turning the pages of the book and picked up the teacup on the table. As ripples appeared in the tea in the cup, the figures of her apprentice Akhtar and the fire giant Surtur appeared.

Fate has reached the most critical turning point.

If Akhtar has no way to defeat the Fire Giant Surtur, then the world will be burned by the Fire Giant Surtur. Even if the Witch of Death, the Goddess of Life and others show strength that is stronger than the Fire Giant Surtur, they will soon be adapted to by the Fire Giant Surtur until the Goddess of Life and the Witch of Death are helpless.

But Akhtar's victory over the fire giant Surtur is not necessarily a good thing. The influence from Ragnarok will turn her apprentice into the Lord of Ashes, and this process can only be slightly delayed at most.

Of course, she could also try to stop it. As Akhtar's teacher, she had more than a dozen ways to stop Akhtar from challenging the fire giant Surtur, but... stopping him would not save the world, but would instead make Akhtar lose the power to choose.

She herself does not like having decisions made for her by others, so she will not make decisions for Akhtar. Even if she knows that Akhtar is on a path of no return, she will not make decisions on his behalf.

Unless she can come up with a third option.

"Teacher, don't worry about me." Akhtar's reflection in the cup suddenly turned his head and seemed to meet the gaze of Hecate, the witch of fate. "I... will not lose."

Hecate was slightly startled, then smiled.

She wasn't worried about whether Akhtar could win, but was only worried about the impact of Ragnarok on Akhtar.

Withdrew his gaze.

Ximu took a step towards the fire giant Surtur, red scales appeared on his body, and the sword of light in his hand ignited flames of ash.

"Here, the destiny of becoming a king begins." The blindfolded nun also clasped her hands together at this moment and activated her unique authority.

The dim yellow barrier spread, and wherever it passed, it turned grayish white, as if all colors were taken away. Only Akhtar and the fire giant Surtur retained bright colors.

The barrier was deployed very smoothly this time, ensuring the absence of any outsiders, allowing the fire giants Surtur and Akhtar to have their fateful showdown.

Only the winner can become the king of the world of ash.

The fire giant Surtur looked indifferent as he felt his strength continuously weakening. His originally majestic body was shrinking continuously until it was about the same size as Akhtar.

He seemed to have returned to the period when the god was weak, but he still retained the experience in applying power from his time as the Lord of Ashes. Compared with Akhtar, he undoubtedly had an absolute advantage.

Thinking of this, Surter lowered his body and stepped suddenly into the void, as if ignoring the distance limit and came in front of Akhtar.

He immediately swung his fist with the intention of hitting the target.

"Clang!" A long spear shot out and hit the fist of the fire giant Surtur accurately, blocking the punch that was sure to hit.

That gun also has a guaranteed hit effect, so it can cancel out his guaranteed hit effect.

Surtur pulled back his fist and suddenly jumped back, and Ximu took the opportunity to release the Sword of Light. The almost unavoidable slash of light directly submerged Surtur and cut through the thick rock strata of the underground world.

……

...

"Is this the end of the battle?"

The demon from outside the realm sat cross-legged outside the barrier, showing a surprised expression, "Without the support of Ragnarok, the fire giant Surtur is so weak?"

"Surtur, who was a god in the past, mastered forging and fire. The sword of light was forged by him himself." A strange man's explanation came from not far away. The demon from outside the world looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man with a lot of wrinkles on his face walking towards him. His breath was very weak, and his clothes were tattered. There was also flames of ash wrapped around his body, which continued to burn his flesh and blood.

The symptoms are like being infected with the Ash Flame.

"God of Seals, you are still alive?" The demon from outside the world said with surprise. Then, the God of Seals rolled his eyes, came to him and sat down cross-legged.

"I won't die that easily."

"Really?" The demon from outside the world withdrew his gaze and seemed to have no interest in the God of Seals. The so-called seal was meaningless to him who controlled the power from outside the world. He could easily break away from it anyway.

The God of Seals was in no hurry to respond upon seeing this. This duel between the Lord of Ashes would not end so soon.

And as expected.

The fire giant Surtur suddenly appeared, as if teleporting behind Akhtar, and threw a punch filled with fire.

This was the method he used to escape the seal through the Ragnarok feint, and he knew how to use it to move freely in different spaces.

This punch also contains the effect of a guaranteed hit.

"Clang!" Ximu swung out the Spear of Destiny again, offsetting the fist that had a guaranteed hit effect, and also pierced through the fist of the fire giant Surtur.

Then his spear of destiny was grasped in his backhand by the fist that was pierced through it.

The fire giant Surtur's eyes were terrifyingly cold, as if he couldn't feel any pain at all. He just took advantage of the situation and activated his forging power.

This gun actually contains a guaranteed hit effect. As long as he reforges the gun, he can eliminate the guaranteed hit effect contained in the spear.

And Akhtar, who has lost his sure-hit effect, will be at his mercy.

Ximu seemed to be aware of this problem as well, and immediately released the sword of light in his hand, wanting to blow away the fire giant Surtur.

However, the sword of light, which had been invincible in the past, suddenly misfired at this moment, and was unable to release the light slash that had been invincible in the past.

This is a matter of course.

After all, the Sword of Light was forged by the fire giant Surtur himself, so there is naturally a way to make the Sword of Light disappear.

"Survive in the world of death." Ximu immediately changed the battle plan and launched the Kingdom of Death.

The fire giant Surtur decisively let go of the hand that was holding the Spear of Destiny, and flew backwards like a bullet, avoiding the kingdom in Akhtar's heart.

Although the time was very short, he had completed the re-forging of the Spear of Destiny, making the spear lose its guaranteed hit effect.

And this means that Akhtar has no way to offset the inevitable hit.

"I see. I forgot that you have the power of forging." Ximu looked down at the Spear of Destiny in his hand, which looked like a dead tree. He could clearly feel that the Spear of Destiny had lost its guaranteed hit effect. "But you don't think I can win if I lose the Spear of Destiny, do you?"

"..." The fire giant Surtur said nothing and landed on the magma below the hole. In his eyes, everything would burn to ashes. Who would talk to a pile of ashes? There was no need at all. Apart from burning the world, there was nothing else to ask for. This was the necessary condition for being the Lord of Ashes. Even a guy like Akhtar could be chosen.

There is absolutely no way to understand it.

"Is he mute?" Ximu tilted his head, threw away the Spear of Destiny in his hand, and immediately took the initiative to attack the fire giant Surtur.

Surtur did not choose to fight with it, but instead ran towards the discarded Spear of Destiny. The moment he grasped it, he activated the power of forging and molded it into the shape of the weapon he wanted. The Spear of Destiny, which was like a dead tree, twisted in an instant, and a spear burning with flames of ash was born.

As the God of Forging, without weapons, his strength would be greatly reduced, but as long as there are suitable materials, he can immediately forge suitable weapons.

Hold the spear tightly.

Surtur looked at Akhtar who was rushing towards him, attached the sure-hit effect to the flaming spear, and then threw it out suddenly.

"Puff!" The spear carried Akhtar flying backwards, his body flying backwards along the hot magma until it hit the hollow wall.

Won?

This is of course impossible. At their current level, they cannot die easily even if their heart is pierced. Not to mention that Akhtar has a very high resistance to the Ash Flame, so it is impossible for him to be burned to death easily by the Ash Flame.

But it would be different if the number of hits were greater.

He raised his hand slightly, and the flaming spear flew back and was held in the palm of the fire giant Surtur, who then made a piercing gesture.

"As expected of the fire giant Surtur." Akhtar also walked out of the hollow wall, raised his hand and touched the wound that was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. His smile became excited, and then his lips moved slightly.

"Compete in the world of speed." He activated the power of the little mare, and his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant, and suddenly appeared next to the fire giant Surtur.

The great sword of death wrapped in black flames was swung down.

"Clang!" The spear and the sword collided, and hot flames erupted from the point of intersection, causing the entire cave to vibrate in an instant. The flowing magma turned into huge waves that hit the wall, splashing out hot waves.

"Through high-frequency attacks, Surtur doesn't have time to use his sure-hit attacks." The God of Sealing touched his chin. "This is indeed a good idea, but it doesn't seem to be of much use."

"Rather than saying it's useless," the demon from outside the realm took the initiative to speak, "it's better to say that Akhtar's battle judgment ability is... declining. His level shouldn't be just this level. Now he's like a reckless man fighting on instinct."

As for the evaluation of Akhtar’s fighting ability, he has always been in control, leading the team step by step to victory through a calm and composed fighting style.

However, Akhtar has now lost his calmness and composure.

"Since the enemy is the fire giant Surtur." The God of Seals commented, "It's no wonder that Akhtar behaved like this. He doesn't have the Witch of Fate and the Witch of Death to rely on now, so he can only rely on himself to fight to the death."

In the past, no matter how dangerous the situation was, even when facing gods, there were always the Witch of Death and the Witch of Fate to rely on. If things were impossible, the Witch of Death and the Witch of Fate would be summoned to overturn the chessboard.

The situation is completely different now. Akhtar must defeat the fire giant Surtur by himself, and no one can cover for Akhtar.

"...That seems to make sense." The demon from outside the world fell into deep thought. In the amazing battles that Akhtar had displayed in the past, no one could guarantee whether the Witch of Fate had intervened or not. Just like this time, the fire giant Surtur, under the arrangement of the Witch of Fate, voluntarily came to Akhtar for a fight to the death.

But now the Witch of Fate has no room to intervene, which means that Akhtar has lost the protection of fate.

"I hope Akhtar can still show the calmness to fight to the death with the God of War." The God of Seals covered his face with one hand. He had originally planned to ask the demons from outside the world to launch a sneak attack after Akhtar won the battle, and he would take the opportunity to seal Akhtar.

But now it seems that this may not be possible.

at the same time.

On the battlefield.

"Puff." The flaming spear pierced through Akhtar's heart, and the blazing ash flames erupted, directly burning his chest into charcoal.

Surtur subconsciously wanted to draw out his spear, but he found that Akhtar was holding the flaming spear and his lips moved to change the rules of the kingdom in his mind.

"To survive in a world of death."

"..." Surtur loosened his grip on the flaming spear without even thinking, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"What a cunning guy." Ximu pulled out the flaming spear that was inserted into his chest. His burnt chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, the Red Dragon Blood Armor he was wearing was completely scrapped and fell into the boiling magma.

Under such a high-intensity battle, the Red Dragon Blood Armor he was wearing could not last for too long.

Now I can only rely on life prayers to endure the damage.

"But this way you won't be able to use this annoying gun, right?" He gripped the Flame Spear tightly and could feel its struggle.

"Can you come up with any other weapon now?"

"..." Surter did not answer. His ruby-like eyes reflected Akhtar's appearance. Could it be that he had thought too much before? This man was actually just at this level and not a very difficult guy.

Before, he could rely on the support of Ragnarok, so he didn't need to think too much in battle. The logic of the battle was to endure damage and then gain support from Ragnarok, so that he could grow until the enemy could no longer use more effective means.

But now that he did not actively support Ragnarok, he began to change his combat mode and started using his brain to think.

However, the fighting ability displayed by Akhtar was not as good as expected.

That being the case.

Surtur stretched out his hand, inserted his five fingers into his spine, activated his forging power, and then suddenly pulled his spine, and a long sword burning with ash flames appeared.

Ximu raised his lips and asked, "Can you even forge your own body?"

Surtur ignored Akhtar's words and waved his hand over the long sword burning with ash flames. The flame on the long sword suddenly changed and turned into a color close to dusk.

After reaching omnipotence, the same ability can produce different effects. For example, the Ash Flame can be transformed into an unavoidable light, or it can be transformed into a slash that burns everything.

This is the reason why we generalize from a single example. By constantly deepening our abilities, we can achieve more comprehensive and powerful results.

And now what he strengthened was the effect of burning everything.

can win.

Surter disappeared from the spot and appeared ten meters away from Akhtar. He then suddenly swung the long sword in his hand, and the flame with a burning effect turned into a sun and slashed through, directly cutting Akhtar in half.
