Ancient God in the Modern World

"Die Angel!"

The Demon, Orginech, raise his gigantic claws and got ready to pierce Cyrus who was bleeding.

Fortunately, Cyrus' body, as an angel is deformable. Although Orginech's spear pierced him, it merely pierced his body but it left considerable damage.

Of course, Cyrus would not stay idle and let things go as the Demon wishes.

"Divine Sacrifice!"

He said as he ignited the Divine energy in his body to increase his strength.

"If I die, I will take you with me," Cyrus said.

He had decided, that he must do it for his Lord. speaking of which, he looked in Allen's direction.

He and Allen gazed at each other for a while. But at that time, he is gritting his teeth as he saw Allen bound in chains. Although Allen seemed to be fine, his heart faltered his Lord in that state.

"Cyrus, I will take care of everything. Save yourself."

Cyrus heard this but this only made him grit his teeth as he remembered the vow that he had made to his Lord.

'I vow to be the sword and the shield for my Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death. I offer my life to you. I will only leave for you and I will not let anyone tarnish nor stain your name.'

At this point, even Allen could not blame him as he said, "no, my Lord, I will serve you with all my life. If I die, I will take this filthy thing with me."

Whoosh!

The moment has come as his Divine energy is fully ignited. At this very same moment, his aura grew stronger as he received a boost in power. He was now sure that he could kill the Demon.

"Divine Domain!"

"Die!"

Yet again, Cyrus activated his Divine domain and condensed tons of dense death energy.

For the second time, he aims to put an order of death to the chaotic nature of the Demon of pride before him.

Whoosh!

The seemingly long act happened in an instant. The Demon is unable to dodge and was hit. However, the Demon is not a vegetarian. He only received a rather fatal injury.

However, beyond his expectation, that is not the real attack.

"Death! Surge!" Whoosh!

The next two words that Cyrus said gave chills to the back of the Demon.

This time, the death energies that Cyrus had are far greater than the previous one. He knew that at this moment that he had kicked a strong wall. His only regret is that he must at least try to hit the Divine Spirit instead of going for a slave. However, on the other hand, he felt rather good as he thought that at least he would be able to take a rather strong angel with him.

"…"

At this point, the death energies from Cyrus began to put his chaos in order. Once his chaos is put in order, he will die.

Meanwhile, seeing that Cyrus had already given his all, Allen had also decided that he would also give his all.

"I, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, decrees that the two dying creatures before me shall live."

At this point, Allen had released the concealment of the relic and shot condensed Divine energy towards the two to power up the decree that he made.

Meanwhile, as he did so, his Divine energy also began to be attracted to the unknown thing that he was looking for.

However, this is in his expectation. This is also why he did not decree for the Demon to die but rather for the both of them to live.

He held Cyrus very precious in his heart. And, he cannot let him die along with the filthy creature.

Meanwhile, he felt weak as his Divine energy is getting sucked into the Divine energy was being sucked away from him. Fortunately, he had Divine vine crystals with him that he could use to replenish the Divine energy that he had lost.

"I wonder why didn't I notice that you are a Divine Spirit?" Allen asked as he face Merlyn.

Indeed, Merlyn is a Divine Spirit and the chains that he was using is a Divine Weapon that specializes in capturing a Divine Spirit. However, there are restrictions that Allen is able to bypass which allowed him to make a decree.

"Hahaha. Who knows? But perhaps, you are not strong enough." Merlyn replied.

"I don't think you are the Sun God? Who might you be?" Allen asked he scrutinized Merlyn.

Meanwhile, Merlyn smiled and said, "let me introduce myself."

He bowed before continuing, "I am Cratos, the God of Strength and Power."

As he said that, he proved that he is indeed the one. He revealed his true form. And, in the process, the energies in the air trembled as if they had recognized them.

"You're a powerful God. Unfortunately, you're not an Olympian. However, you can sacrifice for us."

As he said so, the Divine chains lit up and suppressed Allen.

However, Allen did not panic and was amused, instead.

"I am not an Olympian, why must I sacrifice?"

"You're unwilling? Unfortunately, you don't have a choice. You will become a sacrifice, whether you like it or not you're a sacrifice."

As Cratos said it, Allen felt that his Divine energies had gone out of his control. They went out of his body and into the ground.

Meanwhile, Allen watched everything without worries. Now, he finally saw what he is looking for.

"This is Tartarus, the prison that I created for the titans," Diya said beyond Allen's expectation.

"I seemed that I am fooled again," Allen said as he looked at Diya.

Who would have thought that his little slave is also a Divine Spirit?"

"Hahaha, I'm Gaia, the Goddess of this planet. It is only normal that you cannot see that I am a Divine Spirit."

Indeed, as the Goddess of the planet, she is powerful in the planet itself. Unfortunately, she did not have much Divine energy, or else she could have already mobilized the force of the planet to eliminate the Demons.

Meanwhile, Allen went silent as he did not expect to meet a strange Divine Spirit.

"Goddess of the planet? A good authority but I don't like it." Allen thought inwardly.

Although she might be powerful, her prowess lies on the planet. If she was not on earth, she would merely have the strength of an angel. She can use Divine energy but she did not have authority.. Or rather, she would not be able to use her authority.
