1964 The Might Of Truhan And Celica



-----

Celica and Truhan arrived in the scene, utilizing their incredible sizes and powerful Divine Weapons to slay several giant Spirit Beasts at once. With this strength alone he was able to slay a single Spirit Beast of Rank 7, yet Truhan and Celica with their simplest of attacks slain over six of them!

"Hahh… You guys are quite the monsters, as always." Kizuato laughed, glancing at his friends arrive. "Ugh…! Celica! Truhan! I'm here!" Kizuato called.

"Stay where you are, Kizuato! We'll get rid of these monsters first." Truhan roared, summoning the gigantic blazing axe into his enormous hands.

"Give us a second." Celica smiled, holding her black axe, which quickly divided into two smaller black axes, overflowing with moonlight energy and darkness.

"SHAAAAHHH!!!"

"GROOOARR!"

"GRUOOOHHH…!"

The rest of the Spirit Beasts rushed in, some in the shape of wolves, snakes, and there was a large Rank 8 Spirit Beast in the shape of a gigantic black gorilla, made of black, semi-translucent crystals.

"[Divine Moonlight Titan Axe Arts]: [Star-Splitting Slash]!"

Celica swiftly rushed forward, swinging her two huge axes once more, as she unleashed two powerful slashes made out of moonlight energy and darkness, generating a half-moon shaped slicing arc!

SLAAAASH! SLAAAASH!

Her attacks easily overpowered the Spirit Beast's long-ranged Spirit Beams attacks, and swiftly cut down another pair into pieces. The creatures were incredibly tough despite their frail appearance; however, Celica was simply stronger.

"I couldn't had expected any less from my wife!" Truhan roared, charging his gigantic battle axe with his divine flames. "[Infernal Blazing Titan Axe Arts]: [Volcanic Wrath]!"

FLAAASH!

The fire titan stepped forwards while overflowing with flames, his titanic axe of over a hundred meters landing over the gorilla Spirit Beast.

"GRUOOHH!"

The giant Gorilla-like Spirit Beast attempted to resist the blow, unleashing a barrage of gigantic fists overflowing with dark spirit energy.

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

However, Truhan's mighty blow would simply not be stopped by such feeble attacks.

CRAAAAAASSSH!

"GREAARGHH…!"

The Beast Spirit was instantly sliced into two halves, one of Truhan's classic techniques, as he usually overpowered his foes with so much physical might that he simply sliced them into pieces, burning them into charred meat right after.

BOOOOOOMMM…!

As its two halves exploded into pieces, a huge volcanic wave of energy was unleashed, hitting nearby Beast Spirits, and burning them. The weakest ones below Rank 6 instantly died, while the others burned and grew incredibly weaker.

"[Infernal Blazing Meteors]!!!" Truhan roared; his entire body grew completely bright red as he summoned hundreds of blazing meteors that simply surged out of his fiery skin!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Countless explosions covered the entire battlefield, until the only two standing were the Ruler of Flames and his wife, the Moonlight Titan Goddess.

The beautiful greenery became a burning hell, no more Spirit Beasts dared to enter the battle anymore. The titans' presence and might was already quite incredible.

However, they did notice a lot of Spirit Beasts watching the disaster from far away, smaller, and weaker ones. Perhaps they waited for the opportunity to have a bite on the Spirit Beasts that were defeated.

"Amazing, are you guys not tired after that?" Kizuato wondered. "I am already exhausted because my Divine Realm's entrance got clogged somehow, too much spirit energy! And everyone else around here is dying because they got intoxicated!"

"Maybe because your bodies are too small, you cannot completely resist the surrounding energies." Celica wondered, rubbing her chin. "Anyways, for now, we should seek more survivors. Are they really dying? Maybe we should bring them inside my Divine Realm, they can be treated there until we can find some sort of cure."

"Sounds good." Kizuato agreed. "And I guess your hypothesis might be right, Celica. You guys bodies are enormous! I guess it makes sense you can resist so much energy without feeling completely overflowed by it, hahaha."

"I feel a bit tired though…" Truhan sighed, grabbing a large Spirit Beast arm, the one from the gorilla-like beast, and beginning to munch it. "Hmmm, doesn't taste good… Urgh."

FLUOSH!

A portal opened to Celica's Divine Realm as Kizuato quickly entered her Divine Realm, a beautiful dark land lightened by a big full moon above. He was guided by Celica into the peak of a large mountain, Celica's Moonlight Castle, where several Moonlight Elves, inhabitants that were born inside her Divine Realm and obeyed her as their Moon Goddess, quickly started treating the intoxicated monkey-kin gods.

"Lady Goddess, these are the Monkey Gods?"

"Hmm, I can detect that something is intoxicating their bodies…"

"The most we can do now is try to extract such energy, but even then, it might take a while."

"Looks like the healing elixirs made out of Moonlight Lily and Moonshine Roses work to calm their pain!"

The Moonlight Elves worked rapidly, utilizing elixirs, potions, and unguents on the monkey gods, however, that at most relieved some of their pain, none of them had yet to wake up, and the strange status they were afflicted with persisted.

"Shit… We need to find a cure!" Kizuato cried.

"We'll do while looking for the rest of our friends." Truhan nodded. "If this world is really like ours, I bet there must be some people out there, right? Maybe if we can find natives and talk with them, they can help us find a cure."

"Negotiations are my specialty, leave it to me dear." Celica smiled. "For now, let's continue. Are you not tired, Kizuato?"

"I'm fine. I can't access my Divine Realm but I can sense everyone's just fine in there." Kizuato said. "After drinking that elixir, I'm 100%! Ain't no way I'll slack off when we are in such a crisis! Agh, and I don't even want to imagine what's happening back in Helheim!"

"We better concentrate in the present." Truhan said with a serious tone of voice. "As Kireina-sama often said, let's do this one step at a time. Our friends are strong, we don't need to worry about them."

"Right…" Kizuato sighed. "Alright, friends, let's go!"

"Come on, I'll carry you." Celica smiled, grabbing Kizuato with her hand as the two Titans swiftly started sprinting across the Spirit Plane's lands.

It didn't took them too look to find a large series of temple-like structures made of bright crystals at the side of a huge rainbow-colored lake.

However, the place wasn't really quite peaceful, as some sort of huge, chimeric Spirit Beast creature was attacking the entire village, firing rainbow lasers against their magic spirit barrier.

The barrier seemed like it was about to shatter at any time, and to make things worse, most of the people in that village were screaming and running away.

However, a few familiar figures appeared amidst the commotion, their distinctive armors and horns quickly gave away their identities.

Two smaller companions wearing shiny white armor and golden lightning swung their powerful magical swords and spears, while a huge, giant friend covered on an armor of metallic spikes attacked using his gigantic hammer.

"We have to hold on this thing while the villagers escape!"

"Dammit! Where did this thing came from?! It is way too strong compared to the other monsters!"

"Palami! Raito, stay behind me! I'll tank the hits! Make sure that the villagers escape to safety!"

"It's Palami, Raito, and Asure!" Kizuato said in surprise. "They're alive!"
