Let Me Teach You Wha "Trauma" Means

1.

"Saburou, what are you doing here?."

"As expected, I can't leave you guys alone! guild master, let me also join this battle."

"Of course you are welcomed, so the fire just now?."

"Yes, Violet is the one who cast it, anyway can you guys still go on?."

"The talisman is working properly, we still have plenty strength and stamina."

"Good, then just keep a safe distance and attack from afar to lure it deeper into the forest."

I think guild master already grasped that their attack didn't really have any effect on the Titan so he didn't voice any complaint about my proposal.

"Are you sure didn't want any help from us?."

"I'm very sure I just asked some help from you guild master?."

"Is that all?."

"No, I still need some other thing."

"What?."

"Information, a lot of information about that Titan! without it, I didn't think I can beat it."

We can call gods soul into this world by making a connection to the spiritual world, creating an artificial sacred ground, and using Violet's body as a vessel to be possessed. Granting her a fraction of gods power and giving the summoner a temporary divinity.

In other words, what we do is like summoning a god hand or feet without actually materializing its full body. Of course, that kind of method is not going to give us a guaranteed to a victory.

After all that we face is a full-blown god in flesh.

"What kind information?."

"Anything, even the most trivial one."

We need to find its weakness and strike it. And in order to strike it, we need to find out our opponent identity and look for the most suitable weapon to defeat it.

"I see, I will ask every capable person to assemble the information we got from the investigation."

"Good! please divert its attention, you can leave the main attack to me and Violet."

The basic of our battle is the same, we lured it to some isolated place and then begin to attack it. But, with their magic and weapon not even able to scratch its body, they are mostly just trying to provoke it with a small-scale attack that didn't consume too much magic.

It can save us a lot of both stamina and magic.

"Violet, let's try to attack its joint and see if the law of physic still works on our honored god."

She is far from my position, but my thought is transmitted directly to her. As a one who controls the summoning ceremony, I have a strong link to the vessel. In this case Violet.

And that link didn't only provide us with a network to transmit our though, we also share the divinity. While the one who is possessed by the fraction of God's soul is only Violet, but the link between us also gives me an access to it. Hence I also possess the ability to hurt that Titan.

She nodded and then fly toward one of its feet using the flame produced from her feet like a jet while I still need to run and jump.

She aims the place behind its knee, and I swing my sword towards its Achilles heel. Her attack which using the flame shaped like a sword seems working and its left leg begins to bend unable to support its own weight.

"Shit. . . It's soo tough."

While my sword can't slash through it and my attack just bounces back like I'm just hitting a wall. It seems I can't rely on the power-up from the divinity I got from Violet alone.

Even though the divinity is shared, but the God's real power is still hers alone.

"Back off master!!."

I jump backward and Violet begin to shower it with flame.

"Watch out!!!."

The Titan takes its turn to Attack, and it treats Violet as the main threat so it begins to swing its arm to crush her.

"Shit!."

She is able to avoid that big swing without any technique, but even the amateur attack that lacking in precision still pose a big problem for us. No, in the first it didn't even need any precision. Its size alone is already a threat.

"Master!!."

Just from the wind its generated from that one swing is enough to blow me and many adventurers away like a pile of dust.

"No worry, how about you?."

She is in the air, the flow of the air is going to affect her more than us who have a firm footing to land. Even she can evade the main attack, the wind blow is still going to affect her flight path.

"I can just use brute force to keep my flight stable."

"I see."

If you have enough power, you didn't need any trickery. The one who needs it is someone weak like me.

"Let's switch weapon, master! I don't think to keep using flame is going to get us anywhere."

Yes, we can hear its cry of pain once a while, but the flame attack didn't really do any real damage. After getting burned its skin would produce a mist and the wound somehow got healed instantly.

Is it have a great regenerative ability?.

Let's try it then.

"Master!!!."

While its hand still busy trying to attack Violet in the air, suddenly it uses its right foot to attack me when I'm being too absorbed in thought. Because of that, I'm unable to respond in time and have to receive its frontal attack.

"Guwaaaa. . . ."

In hurry, I placed the sword between me and the side part of its sole of feet in diagonal position to make that attack slide through the body of the sword in my hands.

"Imperishable lord, Avyayaprabhu 7."

The talisman in the sword rearrange itself and summon another power which gives strength to the very structure of Violet's body. And at the same time, our link made that a fraction of that power also being shared with me.

Violet fell from the air and landed smoothly on the ground.

"As expected of the son of that thing."

The attack is so heavy that the ground around me get gouged out like just being hit by a small meteor. And of course, I also felt like being hit by the same thing. In fact, I felt as if my body is being crushed with a Giant boulder while my hand feels like going to be detached from my shoulder.

"One who has serpents as ornaments, Nagabushana 55."

The talismans give a 'ping' sound and rearranged itself again.

"Violet!!!."

She brings her 2 hands and pulls them again like a conductor that leads an orchestra, after that, I can feel the ground below my feet begin to move.

From below the ground, a big serpent appears and carry my body closer towards Violet.

"Restrict its movements."

Another serpent appears from underground and begins to coil its body around the Titans feet. The Titan immediately reacted and try to peel the serpent off its feet. But when its hand approaches its feet, the serpent spray its poison to the Titan's face.

"Gruwaaaaaaa. . . ."

The Titan let out a big scream that forces everyone present to cover their ears.

"Is it cry of pain. . .no!."

At first, I thought it give a cry of pain after being exposed to the serpent's poison, but just like before its skin produces a mist and the poison disappeared just like that. In other words, poison also not being effective.

"What happened master, the serpent look strange?."

"I don't know!."

The serpents release the Titans feet and begin to act strangely. I don't think it receives any damage, but why it to struggle so hard like a worm that is being smeared with salt?.

"Can you redirect its rampage to Titan?."

"I'll try."

The serpent is still tossing around uncontrollably, but the command from Violet still have an effect and it begins to move towards the Titan.

"Summon more of it."

Violet widen her arm like someone who is going to receive a hug. At the same time, 4 more serpents appear from below and move quickly towards the Titan. After that, she crossed her arm in front of her chest as a sign to attack.

The 4 serpent coiling it body to the Titans and the first serpents move its body like a whip try to disturb the Titan's balance.

"Gwaaaaa. . . ."

The Titan screams again and the same thing like before also happened. All the serpents become frenzied and act like there's something wrong with their stomach.

"I can still do it."

Violet try to control where the serpent directs their flailing body. But the Titan easily caught their body.

"Damn it!.. they can't compete in power."

A serpent is strong, especially if their body is as big as a tree. But even so, their strongest point is their poison. Not their physical strength, unlike their non-poisonous siblings like python or anaconda.

The Titan grabs the body of the serpents one by one and crushing it into mincemeat.

"If it comes to this then I didn't have any choice."

Violet clasp her hands with a serious face on her. For some reason, I can feel that she got her competition soul triggered.

"I'll crush you!!!."

She pushes her hands toward the sky and then a far bigger serpent come out from the ground. And that serpent has multiple heads.

"Violet, let's save something like that for our last resort! If you used it for too long your body is going. . ."

"Then, I just need to win quickly right!!!!."

The serpent responds to her will and moves toward the Titan with a speed that incomparable to before. After that, its multiple heads begin to moves on its own and sink their fangs into the body of the Titan. Injecting their deadly poison.

If poison from outside didn't have any effect, maybe we can kill it from the inside. Just like some people who wanted to kill me before.

"Guwaaa. . . "

It begins to scream, but that scream didn't affect the big serpent too much. And after having its shoulders, head, hands, and body being chewed with a razor sharp fang. It stopped moving completely . . .

"Or not."

What the heck?. It can still move its arm and try to grab the main body of our summoned serpents.

"Futile!!! the poison is going to kill it first before it can give any meaningful resistance."

"Or not."

When the Titan finally able to grab the main body of the serpent, its scale begins to change its color into grey ash. And then, just like an old building. The serpent's body begins to crumble and shattered into pieces.

"That?.. what is that!? master?."

The power to nullify flame, the power to make a poison disappear, the power to make even the serpent of the strongest god become crazy, and now it even has the power to wither anything it touched.

I can get some names from these characteristics, but many mythical races share the same trait so I can't just use this guesswork as a basis.

After all, we only have a limited ammunition. If the bullet we use is wrong then we are pretty much screwed.

"What we should do next?."

"We should protect the adventurer, that power is too dangerous."

"Ye.. . ."

A ping sound resonates from the sword, the talisman we used to call the serpents controlling power come back to its former place. It means we can't use it again.

Placing a gods soul into a mankind body is putting a big burden on it, hence we can only using one type of power once a day. For a safety measurement, we also make a system where the connection to a certain power going be automatically cut if we use it too much.

Usually, the limit is hit when we call the ultimate form of each power. Like the very big serpent just now.

"We can't rely on it anyway, now we need to switch."

"What we need to use?."

"Something that can't even wither."

"Is there something like that?."

"Of course, no basic elements born directly from primordial can wither, we will use water."

I still have my divinity that boosts my body, I didn't directly fight the Titan, everything is going to be alright.

"Lord of the river Ganga, Gangadhara 24."

Some talisman flies from one slot to another while gives a ping sound. After hosting their new place, I give a little glow before finally connected to the network.

This power would give her the ability to manipulate the body of water on land.

Both of us parted and go to the place where the adventurer attack from afar. She can protect the adventurer by shielding their body with water when they made a contact with the Titan.

But, it seems it know that we want to keep our distance hence it doing some another troublesome thing.

It suddenly stopped moving, and a human-like figure begins to sprout from its body like a branch that comes out from a big tree. It begins to move toward the adventurer and attacking them.

Using an arm that can make anything wither if touched.

1.

"Avoid its arm and attack the body or leg!."

I hear some higher ranked adventurer giving a command. After that, I also able to hear some slicing sound from a sword,

"They are doing far better than I thought, Maybe I didn't need to bother myself to protect them?."

I found the guild master also trying to slay one of the human-like things that hunt us.

"The one in this battle are adventurers in upper rank with many experiences, of course, they have flexible though and high-level adaptability."

These guys are able to comprehend the situation quickly and come up with a method to counter-attack. Their experience didn't betray them and their strength are adequate to protect themselves from this level of threat.

"Guild master! did you already got some info?."

"Yes, but because they are noncombatant staff they can't just go to this place."

Well, this place is full of dangerous object and creature after all.

"I will pick that info myself."

"No! we can't have you or Violet-san leave this place!."

I see, If we leave this place the Titan maybe will just chase after us. After all, we are the only one who actually capable of hurting it.

"What is your plan Guild master?."

"We want to create a chance for them to come here."

"How?."

"By defeating that some human-like thing and create a small safe area for you and them to meet."

"My question is still the same, how?."

"They are not as strong as the Titan and we can actually give it a big damage."

I see, their power also being split. In another word, the Titan's total power also decreased.

"Then?."

"Please attack and lure some of them to the Titan's blind spot! we will assemble some small team to take care of it."

"You mean I have to become a bait?."

"You don't want to?."

"Are you kidding me? of course, I didn't want to do it."

But even so, I'll do it anyway.

In the first place, did I even have any choice?. The answer is of course no. I didn't have any. That's why I have to do it even I didn't want to.

"Where I should lure it to?."

"Ask violet-san to get its attention to the north side, after that we run to the opposite side."

The north side is where the Titan almost flatten my body with its feet, that attack creates a big crater that's rather deep. Because the human-like thing that the Titan create is far smaller than his own body, that area is going to be a rather difficult to travel.

And in a fight, having a higher ground to stand is always becomes an advantage.

"Violet, attack the Titan and lure it towards the north side."

"Ok."

Following my command, she runs toward the north side with some adventurer. After that, she prepares herself to attack the Titan from afar while the other adventurer around her watch the surrounding.

Unlike flame manipulation, you can't produce water from thin air just by igniting the oxygen in the air. Because her power is controlling a water and not creating a water, first she needs to find a place with water and then draws it.

The air also contains water but the amount she needs to create an attack is much more than the one available in the air.

"I found it."

Just like before when she controlling the serpents, she move her hands like a baton upwards.

With that, the water from the underground river has been drawn and ready to be used. She uses 2 of her finger to point at the Titan's body like a handgun, and then she shot a high pressured water towards its body.

Normal magic can do a similar thing, but the scale is completely different. The difference between the speed, the mass, and the size is like heaven and earth. Instead of water, it looks like Viole thrusting a supersized spear from underground.

"Let's go Guild master!."

"Yes."

Surely, that attack is going to divert the Titans attention. No, it can even deal a heavy damage to the Titan's body. It can't defend with its special power to wither anything, and even it has a regenerative power, healing a big gaping hole in its chest is going to take some time.

We run to the other side believing that the victory would side with Violet.

But.

"It failed."

"What?. . ."

"The attack failed, the water lost all its speed and just back being ordinary water."

"What should I do? master!."

What should she do? what is the best course we can take? what should I prioritize? the defeat of the Titan? the safety of the adventurers? or, our the safety.

"I trust you master! your decision!! I will follow it until the end!."

That kind of trust is really heavy. What if I made mistakes? what if you got hurt because of me just like in the past? what if my decision got all of us killed?.

"Master, don't try to use your feeling to take a decision in this battle! you are bad at it! your intuition is the worst, your luck is so low, and your ability to read the mood is simply suck!."

What is that last part? I'm very sure my mood reading ability is top notch. Well, the other part is pretty much spot on. When I rely on my intuition, almost all of them ended up nothing like I wanted. And wherever we go, somehow we always got into someone else problem.

"Master said that work delegation is the basic of basic in economy right? I just did that."

I see. She didn't ask my opinion because she has some blind trust or wants to dump the responsibility towards me. It just she calculates that I'm the most capable person to make a decision in this kind of situation.

"After all, you are not a hero! so please just squeeze every last bit of your knowledge, experience, and logic to find a way of getting out from this very bad situation."

Yes, the only one who can do that is a hero that born under a special star and chosen by something who got a blessing from the world itself. And I'm not a hero, I'm just some ordinary guy. Even if I appear in a heroic tale, my position is just going to be the geek friend of hero and didn't really have any specific role.

Hence, I can only work hard, think hard, and do a trial and error.

"I understand, if I ask you to hold up for about 10 minutes do you think you can do it?."

I didn't see it, but I can feel that Violet is now smiling.

"Master!."

"Yes."

"It doesn't matter if I can do it or not, If master asks me to do it, I'll squeeze every ounce of my capability to make it done."

"I'm leaving it to you."

Just like she believes that I'm the most capable person to look for a way to turn the situation around, I also believe that she is the most reliable person who I can rely on to gets the job done.

"Yes."

I run again to do my job as a bait, and Violet tried so many combinations of attack to look for a way to give the Titan a damage while maintaining her current power.

1.

"Are everyone ready?."

"Yes."

"Then! execute them!!!."

With that one command, a dozen of adventurer attack the human-like creature and beheading their head, chop their arm off, and cutting their leg.

"Don't let your guards down, they are going to come again."

Yes, even when they are killed they just keep coming again and again. The old dead body would get pulled and come back to the main body of the Titan and a new body would come out not long after.

"Saburou! do your thing."

I didn't bother to answer because I'm busy doing my thing after finishing up my task as a bait. We didn't really have much time because the next wave is going to come anytime soon.

"Where is the document that contains information about its origin."

"I think it's here."

"Thanks."

The Titan first sighted in the Empire near its coast. It means this Titan come from the sea. If it can live in the depth of the sea, then it has a power related to water.

No wonder our flame-based attack didn't work. Poison didn't do too much damage also because of this water attribute. It can just dissolve the poison and separate the dangerous elements from it.

"Can I see the route it takes?."

"This."

After landing on the coast of the Empire that about 1.600 km far from this place. It begins to move in the direction of north-west and crossing many nations border while destroying the town it meets.

In this world, the Empire territory are made up from the region where Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine exist in my previous world.

"Weird, these routes are weird."

I thought It wants to destroy humanity so I assume that It's going to look for a big city to wreck. But the place it destroys is mostly a small city that didn't really have any big role inside the nations. Hence the damage it causes is not that high.

"What do you mean by weird Saburou-san?."

The one who brought the information is the new guild assistance. The woman that we met during my jobs first meeting a week ago. Lena-san.

"Titans is pretty much a god, and no gods are an idiot, but this route looks like being taken by some big retards."

If it wants to spread a destruction, then it should choose to cross bigger nations and bigger city. After all, by destroying them it would affect the economy and politics of the nations and its neighborhood. It can even lead to a big conflict between country.

It's the most efficient way to destroy humanity.

Throughout history, there are many records of some god trying to destroy humanity. So having a god appear and wants to kill a human is actually not really that surprising. In the past, they have done so many things through their proxy in this world. Some gods try to start a war, spread disease, famine, and create a disaster.

Their reason is varied like wanting a respect, want to be feared, or want to punish some people for accidentally offending them.

"Mostly they would seek the most efficient and easy way to do something in this world because they have a limited authority over this plane, but this Titan just disregards all of my previous experience."

That's why the route used by this Titan is weird. It using the route where it mostly only passes some small nations, which the existence is not that big deal to the world as a whole.

"Experience in what?."

"Forget it!! by the way is there any report regarding of what kind of response each country has regarding this Titan."

"The Empire assemble a national army and tried to subjugate it, but before they are able to battle it, the Titan already moved to the next country?."

"And then. . ."

"Most smaller countries tend to let it go to minimize its loss."

"And their loss?."

"Not much, the one which got attacked is not an important city just like in the Empire."

"Even though its capital is on the level of sub-city by Empire standard?."

"Yes."

"So what is its main purpose of coming out from the sea?."

If it didn't want to destroy human why bother coming out in the first place. If it has some kind of goal or looking for something, why bother disturbing the town. It can do its job more peacefully by not picking up on some weakling. Also, if it really wants to destroy humanity, why it did such a sloppy job.

"Maybe it afraid of being hunted?."

"Hah? did you just say a Titan is afraid of human? a Titan is also god you know?."

Not to mention most gods has a very high pride to even consider human as its equal. How come a mighty Titan afraid of some punny human?.

"But based on the pattern it seems the Titan is intentionally avoiding the big cities, I think it wants to avoid attention from a real strong people."

"A real strong people?."

Now that you mentioned it, there are many records of a divine being slain by a human. It's not Impossible that this age also has a similar person with similar capability. After all, in this world, someone like Perseus and Hercules is a real person who clearly recorded in a history book.

"For the attack, I think it just wants some entertainment! I mean, from what I can see, the Titan is mostly just playing around with all of you."

Now that you think about it, it kinda true. If it wants it can just sweep all the adventurer with its physical power alone, but we can still hold up until this point.

It's pretty much miracle.

"Wait. . . when you said the coast of the Empire, did you mean the one which faces the black sea?."

"I think so."

"Hahahahahaha. . . now everything makes sense!!!."

His name has been flashing in my head from time to time, but because he didn't have any grand story about him I have some difficulty in remembering his characteristic and feature.

"Violet!!!!."

"Yes!."

"Let's kick his ***."

1.

Violet finally found a way to attack the Titan without changing her power. When the water she control touch the Titan's body it loses all its magical properties and just become an ordinary water.

So how did she manage to hurt the Titan's body while only using the power to control river water?. The answer is simple, she didn't use the water itself to attack.

She used it to carry a mineral from underground and then letting it stay inside the water while accelerating its speed. With that, she is able to create a grinder that can even hurt the Titan's body.

"So, did you finally find a way to beat it?."

"Of course, I'm your reliable husband after all."

"As expected of my reliable husband."

"His name is Oceanus, Ogenus, or Ogen."

He is the oldest son of Uranus and Gaia.

In the war between the Titans to overthrown their father Uranus, Oceanus didn't take part in it. He also didn't take a side in the war between gods of Olympus and the Titans. Making him an outlaw for both gods of Olympus and the Titans.

At first, he has the authority over all body of water in the world including all the oceans and river. But, after the newcomer gods come and claim a territory of their own. Now, he only has the authority over the Black Sea.

"From what I can hear, that information didn't have any hint on how to defeat Oceanus."

It just explains about his power over water which gives him invincibility against our water attack, flame, and poison. His tale with Hercules give more detail about his capability as a god, but they didn't actually kill each because Oceanus baked down.

Maybe Hercules can defeat him but we didn't know how he is going to do it except punching him. Something that is not guaranteed to kill him in the first place. After all, he is water god in oceans.

If he wanted he actually can just drown Hercules to kill him.

"Yes, this tale didn't tell much about him."

If there's no more tale then most likely Oceanus cease his activity and just resting in the depth of the Black Sea.

"But his tale didn't stop there."

"What do you mean master?."

"In the east side of the world, there's an Asura who kept a water from flowing by building 99 fortress around the world."

Or more precisely, around the land of India.

That Asura has the ability to control the water, with that power, of course, he can stop the flow of the water towards the oceans. Bringing a drought to the land where he takes a resident.

That Asura is called Vritra.

A Giant god who has a control over water and river. The one with the body of man and snake. The one who can turn into a serpent with a wing, a dragon.

His other name is Oceanus.

"I see, many gods have a different name in the different country, and because the Titan is a loser in a war with the current ruler they are being painted as Asura, in other words, an evil god."

"Dragon is the king of the serpent, hence any lesser serpent is going to fear it."

This is the reason why our serpent went crazy. He also the bringer of drought, in another word the disappearance of water in a land. This turn into his power on making any water disappear from anything. Which in turn making anything to wither.

"Also, in this case, he is not just being painted as evil, he is actually an evil."

"What is that mean master?."

"In the wartime, he behaves like some goods kids, do you know why he behaves like that Violet?."

"He didn't like conflict?."

"Wrong! he like conflict, or more precisely he likes to bully the weak."

The reason why he didn't take side during the great war is that he didn't want to get killed by the newer gods or his siblings.

He enjoys playing around with Hercules by obstructing his journey, he enjoys looking at the pitiful human asking for the drought to end, and he also making fun of human by threatening them without actually trying to exterminate them.

"But. . . ."

"He is also a big coward, right? master?."

"Yes!."

He acts like a harmless individual in the area ruled by the gods from Olympus, he quickly gives up after being beaten by Hercules, and he hides his true nature when he moves to another place.

"And the last, he is even trying not to draw too much attention by using his Giant form instead of the dragon one."

"What is the ending of the 2nd tale?."

"He is killed by Indra using his thunderbolt."

"Are we going to use thunder too."

"Yes but not now."

"The. . . ."

Violet stopped talking, after that I shift my sight tower the ongoing battle between Violet and Oceanus that become more intense.

"So he finally got serious huh."

Violet able to cut one of Oceanus arm using her water grinder. After making some shocked face, Oceanus crush dozens of its own minion with his feet. And by being crushed, their body begins to merge with Oceanus main body and restore his arm.

That was one of his special power.

In the tale when he is being called Vritra, he builds 99 fortresses. The fortress is not a real building. It was a reference to a guardian who keeps the point where he stops the water from flowing.

In the old scripture, his 99 fortresses is a reference to Sambara. In other words, a demon. But the truth is, that 99 Sambaras are the personification of that human-like thing from his body.

Or more precisely, pieces of his body.

He is able to split his body into 99 individual creature that can act as a weapon and defence tools.

If his main body suffers a very heavy damage, he can split his body and let one of them live. If he waited enough, that individual would grow back his full body. They also can act a flexible back up tool.

Just now, he crushes the body of his minion to restore one of its body parts. After those parts are restored he can split his body again to create another minion.

This ability is the one which going to give us a big trouble. If we can't destroy all of his 100 bodies we can't defeat him.

In the 2nd tale, Indra can kill him after all of his 99 other bodies were killed and sealed. In other words, even the king of gods Indra or we call him Zeus in this region, can't kill him alone.

"Guild master, when is the army going to arrive here?."

"One of my people said they are already on the other side of the forest."

"Can't you ask them to come faster?."

"Impossible, they are not under me! not to mention marching inside a forest is difficult."

"How long it gonna take until they are here and ready to fight?."

"Around 10 minutes."

"I see, so let's reorganize the adventurer into a small team like before."

"What is your plan?."

"My plan is. . . . Violet! don't bother answering me and just listen.."

I can't bother her too much.

After all, she is on a high-speed battle where a Giant fist coming like a meteor, a big sword made from water continuously swinging, ultra high-pressure water flying around like crazy, and many human-like creatures who can end her life with a single touch roaming in the grounds.

A single mistake can instantly kill her. Because even the adventurer tasked to protect her no longer able to keep up with Oceanus and Violet's fight.

"In order to defeat it, we need to lure it into using all of his 100 individual bodies, hence don't corner him too much and save your stamina to be used for our trump card."

We can't kill all of them alone so we need to wait for the army to come. The army is going to be split into a tiny team to handle all 99 other bodies.

"It seems, he wants to play around with us, so let's give him a warm welcome and play happily before kicking his ***."

1.

In order to entertain it, we need to create a situation where he can feel that we are in a bad position but still strong enough to retaliate from a safe place.

In simple term, he is just looking for some extreme rides in a theme park where everything looks dangerous but all of them are actually very safe.

We lure it to expose all of his 99 bodies by made him think that the adventurers are being pushed while Violet can't use any more big move.

This situation would trigger his bullying tendency and made him want to see our suffering face for much longer. Hence, he would push us just with the right amount of strength to corner us into the edge but not just not strong enough to make us fall.

"What is the number of his bodies?."

"99, all of his body are now separated!!!."

"Good, we just need to ride this mome. . ."

While I try to convince myself and the adventurers in my team that we are doing ok, suddenly someone shout will all his might.

"The army is here!!!!!."

"Finally!!!."

This, is the longest 10 minutes in my lives.

"Guild master, how long until the army can be incorporated into our plan."

I already can see the army silhouette, and their number is absolutely massive.

"Give me 5 minutes."

"That's fast."

"We already talking about so many scenarios with their side before the operations."

That's a good surprise. If we can speed up the merging process, we can quickly end this shitty battle with Oceanus.

"And here the bad surprise master."

After seeing the army, Oceanus decided to call back all of his separated bodies. He still able to push us, but he decided that he is unable to play around anymore. That's why he wants to merge all of his bodies and destroy the army in one fell swoop.

"Don't let them merge back!!! stop all of them with your all!!!."

If he able to merge all of his bodies, we are going to be screwed. After all, if he is serious he can blow the army with his raw power alone.

"Violet!! wrap your water around everyone's weapon."

"Yes."

"Guild master! don't let anyone kill any of that thing until I give the sign."

If they are killed, their body would crumble and their corpse would automatically disintegrate and move towards the Oceanus main body. When that happened, stopping it would become much-much more difficult.

The army begins to move, spreading, and one by one entering the adventurer's formation. And realizing we are up to something, Oceanus begin to get panic and start to move on his own after his minion got blocked by us.

"Violet!!!."

We need to divert its attention again.

"I can't do it! I have my hands full of controlling the water for the adventurers."

Controlling dozens of an individual body of water is difficult even for her. No wonder she can't have her mind doing something else at the same time. If she undoes that protection, a victim may fall.

"Attack is coming!!."

One team of an adventurer is being targeted. But they are in can't decide to run or stay and defend. If they run away, the human-like thing that they prevent from reaching Oceanus body would get destroyed and our plan would fail.

But if they are not moving away then, their lives is the one which going to fail.

"Move out!!!!."

Our sword main ability is stealing magic and divinity, and as its holder, I should have got some stolen divinity from Oceanus

when he attacked me some time ago.

"Master! don't do something stupid!."

No, I have to do this stupid thing. Because beside us no one can resist that attack.

I rushed to the place where the other adventurers are going to get attacked. The fist that is coming to them is strong enough to create a crater, and something like that is of course more than enough to turn me the adventurer and me into a paste.

"Based on my calculation, I should have also get some resistance towards his power."

Animals poison usually doesn't work on its own body, so his power to make anything wither should also not working on his own body too. After all, if his body is affected by his poisonous power, he is going to lose his vessel in this world.

"Hence!!."

As someone who has part of his divinity, I should also have that kind of resistance.

I tackle one of that human-like thing and protect it from Oceanus attack.

"It should safe for me to touch this thing directly."

"Master! you are too reckless! being reckless should be my trademark."

My tackle is not strong enough to kill that human-like thing, but it's still strong enough to move it outside Oceanus attack range.

"Saburou! we are ready."

Good!.

"Master, we first should stop his movement before executing the plan! otherwise its going to fail!."

Yes, if he attacks our team again and got one of his minion's body crushed, we are going to be in a very bad situation. No, we are already in a bad situation because we no longer have any means of stopping his movements by force.

"Violet! do you remember what kind of Titan he is?."

I prepare our sword and say the spell to switch to another authority.

"A cowards."

Yes, he is a coward. What he feared the most is death. And in order to stop a coward from moving is not difficult, we didn't even need to use brute force.

"Having sun as the eye, Ravilochana 71."

Both of my and Violet can see all the area around us in an eagle eyes format.

"One who spread Illuminations, Tajaswani 96."

After remembering each position of both allies and foe, we mark the position of each individual and sent that image to the corresponded person.

"Did you see it guild master?."

"Yes, clearly."

"We are going after the main body, so please clear our path."

"Make a way for them!!!!."

The adventurer and the army which already made a team and surrounding all the human-like thing started their preparation to attack while also luring that thing away from mine and Violet's path.

"One who wears a necklace of skulls, Kapalin 37."

Violet quietly run towards Oceanus main body. And of course, he is trying to attack her to prevent her from reaching him. Her current authority didn't grant her additional strength, but her physical power is already high in the first place. So she didn't really have any difficulty in handling Oceanus attack.

"Violet! keep your distance from the nearby team."

"Yes."

From the other side, I also running towards his main body. But because he didn't think me as a real threat, he only focuses on Violet. Which is currently doing many acrobatic moves.

She is leaping from here and there, but she always keeping track of her surrounding and lure his attack to her desired point in order to protect the execution team.

"Let's scare the shit out of him!."

"Yes."

Violet finally able to reach Oceanus main body, and after climbing his tall figure. She stands at the top of his head while looking down on him.

"Do it!!."

Oceanus!!!! let me tell you what the word 'trauma' means!!!. Let me show you, what I feel a year ago when we fight your mother.

Violet looking directly at Oceanus eyes with a cold gaze and said. . .

"Die!."

That word is able to send any living soul to the underworld if said by a real god. But, because the one who said it is a mortal and the target is a god. It only able to attach the concept of death into Oceanus soul.

Or in simple term, it strikes the fear of death into the depth of his soul.

And because he is a big coward. His arm stopped moving, his leg stopped moving, and all his minions also stopped moving. After that, all of his body begin to convulse terribly.

"Execute them all!!!."

After I give the command, both the army and the adventurer move their weapon to behead Oceanus minions at the same time.

"One who has thunderbolts on his hands, Vajrahasta 103."

From the air in front of Violet's right hand, our trump card is beginning to emerge. The materialization of the god's weapon which able to bring victory for its wielder. The vajra.

"Never come back again!!!!!."

She hit the tip of the Vajra to Oceanus head. And when the tip made a contact, the vajra discharge a big thunderbolt that strong enough to pierce Oceanus big and tough body from head to toe.

"He is still can come back in the future."

With a ping, the thunderbolt authority got undone and the corresponded talisman flying back into its former place.

"What do you mean, master?."

That strike is not enough to completely kill Oceanus. We can't just kill his body. He is after all, still able to come back even after receiving a strike from Indra.

The reason, is most probably because his soul is able to survive that attack. In other words, if he can found another body he can still reborn.

The chance is minuscule, but he is a god. Something that can even bend a fate and reality. Nothing is impossible for them.

That's why I'm going to erase even that small chance from this world.

"I'm going to."

"No! your body is already at its limit."

She already used so many authority, she even unleashes 2 trump card from serpent and thunderbolt authority. She is already at her limit.

That's why I'm going to finish this myself.

"Supreme Lord of the netherworld, Veerabhadra 106."

By sending his soul to the underworld.

Oceanus body begins to fall and throw out Violet's limp body.

I can feel that his divinity begin to dwindle. Before his soul completely removed from his body I should land an attack on him to give a finishing blow.

"Master."

I catch Violet's falling body using my left arm. She coils her hands around my neck and in turn, I coil my left arm around her soft body.

At a time like this, I'm really grateful that her body is small and light. If her body is bigger, I think I'm not going to be able to carry her as easily. What a great wife.

"Master, did you perhaps thinking something rude about me?."

"No! of course, not!."

"Is that true?. . . your eyes said otherwise."

Now that I remember it, she didn't like treated like a child even though that's not even my intention. So, let's rephrase my words so she didn't get mad.

"I just grateful that the size of my wife is cute."

Yes, she is not small. She only has a cute size.

"Somehow that didn't sound like a praise! also, can you stop squeezing my ***?."

"I just reconfirming your safety."

"I see, we need to have a long talk after this."

"So. .sorry."

All Oceanus body finally fell to the ground and his head is now in front of us. We stopped moving and I raise our sword.

"This is the real goodbye."

I hit Oceanus head lightly and both the sword and his body begin to shine with a dim light.

With that, our battle with one of the 2nd generation of gods, ended.

1.

2 days have passed since the battle against Oceanus. And after defeating the Titan, Saburou, and Violet just going back like nothing happened to resume their daily lives as talisman smith.

Normally, after doing something great, someone would feel want to boast about their achievement or asking some kind of compensation. But what they asked is just one thing.

Please don't bother us, we want to take a long break.

Hence, after they finished taking care the Titan's giant corpse, the guild master call every new adventurer that participate in that operation. And that list includes Volker who act as army representative in the guild, who also participate in that sacrificial battle.

And when he finally able to meet his friend, Werther who work as guild master he just snapped up.

"What is those guys? what is that thing? what the heck is that battle?."

"So? which question you wanted to get the answer the most?."

"Just who are they?."

"A former S rank adventurer from this guild."

"Are you kidding me? is every S rank adventurer can do something like that."

If it's true, then his pride as an A rank adventurer is going to be shattered to pieces.

"Of course not."

The adventurer guild placed them in S rank because there's simply no higher rank than that and the organization can't simply add more special rank for them alone. If they did that, they are going to get animosity from the other members of the organization. They can't sacrifice their unity as an organization just to measure their the couple’s real strength.

"So what is that thing?."

"He said that it's a Titan."

"You mean that Titan that got mentioned in the old scripture?."

"Well, yes."

"Are you saying that we just slew a god?."

"I don't feel offering too much help, in fact, I think we adventurers just become a burden instead?."

If they didn't have to think about protecting the adventurer maybe they can do a more amazing thing and slain the Titan much easier.

"So now you are saying they are capable of slaying a god with just 2 people."

"Didn't you see it with your own eyes?."

"Ridiculous."

"Indeed, but it's real."

"But. . ."

"But what? he looks timid? she looks unreliable? or you think both of them are weak?."

"All of them."

"The truly strong didn't need to flaunt their strength to scare anyone! you never see a tiger being bothered by a cat's fight right?."

"Shit, I can't accept this."

"You can host any feeling towards them, but please just don't do anything stupid! and this warning is not only applied to you Volker! but also your subordinate, and all of you too."

The guild master redirects his sight toward every new face in his office. They are mostly adventurer that just moved to the town, a newly ranked up greenhorn, or people from the army's side.

"Don't displease them no matter what happened, they are not fond of arguments or conflict but please never push your luck too much."

Most of them only able nod and accept what the guild master told them.

"Also don't let any stupid people offend them."

From afar, that married couple just looks like a dumb couple with a carefree attitude. As adventurer who risked their lives on their work and lives in a rough environment, seeing someone like them sometimes trigger a jealousy.

This can lead to some narrowly minded adventurer trying to tease them for fun, or picking a fight with them just to get some entertainment.

"And the last, don't talk about the detail of the battle with any unrelated people."

This is to prevent some foolish people to try to test their strength with that couple.

"Don't think of me as favoring them over all of you, It's the opposite! I told you all of this for your own sake."

What he wanted to do is not giving the couple special privilege. He didn't have any authority over Saburou or Violet because they are not an adventurer anymore. So giving them a favor is not really profitable for him or the guild. What he really wants is protecting the adventurer under him.

"Can I ask you something Wether."

"What? you still have question?."

"Just bear with me! is his strength also known to the higher ups?."

"If they didn't, how can someone like them able stay hidden in this rural town?."

"I see."

In their younger days, they act reckless most of the time. And their action for some reason always tied to one or two big incidents, hence they are garnering so much attention from many high profile people and organization.

Some tried to assassinate them because they deemed them as dangerous existence, and some tried to incorporate them into their side to take advantage of them.

But none of them able to achieve their goal. So, in the end, there's an agreement between the people who move the nations from behind the scene to just leave them alone.

While their power is indeed dangerous if used wrongly, they can still be used as a trump card when there's a big disaster. Hence they didn't antagonize them but also didn't making an excessive connection.

"Hey, did you just casually disclose a national secret?."

"Don't worry, some unidentified person would deal with it if any of you leaking something dangerous."

"That's scary!!!."

"Well, if you think can slay a god with your own hand then you can just ignore my warning."

With that, he ended his small lecture and allow all the adventurer he call to go back. Leaving the guild master with his assistance that also new.

"Can I ask something guild master?."

"What?."

"You said that Saburou-san and Violet-san is a very strong adventurer right?."

"Former."

"Normally, people with strength would also have a great confidence, but when we meet for the first I can't really see any confidence from him."

Someone with strong body usually also has a strong mind. And that strength usually shows up in the form of confidence.

As someone whose job is talking with a lot of strong people, she has confidence in judging someone's strength just by seeing their attitude, the train of thought, or manner of speech.

With that experience, she can even judge the character of the Titan they fought some days ago.

While she can feel that Saburou is experienced adventurer and smart person, she can't judge him as someone whose strength can rival even gods.

"In my eyes, he looks like nothing but wounded soldier that just going back from a war."

"In a sense, your judgment is not that far from reality."

"What do you mean guild master?."

"He is indeed wounded after going back from a war."

"What kind of war?."

If they are strong enough to even rival gods, then who can make someone at their level feel a fear to the point of having a trauma. Is there even human who can stand up toe to toe with them?.

"I didn't really know the detail myself, but what they try to defeat is pretty much the world itself."

"The world?. . ."

That still sounds ridiculous even she know that they are capable of defeating gods. In the first place, what is the meaning of trying to defeat the world?. Are they trying to blow up the world?.

That's sound scary, and it's even scarier when she knows that they are actually capable of blowing anything on earth.

"Are you familiar with this world creation tale?."

"Well, I don't think anyone would able to pass any magic test without knowing it."

The chaos gives birth to the first existence, the Primordials. The Primordial waged a war with each other and one by one died in battle. The remains of their body construct the earth, stars, water, heaven, and the underworld.

The flesh of primordial come to live after exposed to the remnants of its soul and the soul with big enough size form a new spiritual body.

That's how the creature on earth and the gods in the heavens and underworld born.

"Now, you should be able to grasp what I'm trying to say."

Defeating the world itself?.

"Don't tell me!."

"Yes, what they try to defeat, is one the Primordial, the parents of the world itself."

And they lose horribly, so horrible that they become broken.
