Chapter 904 Gruesome Demise
Chapter 904 Gruesome Demise
Aruna tried to get away from her, but he knew that he’d be caught if he didn’t do something fast. Gritting his teeth, Aruna raised his right hand and a wall of water that divided the world into two appeared in front of him, before blood began to stream out from all the fingers on his right hand.
Although the blood that flowed out wasn’t that much, the golden aura of the water instantly turned completely red. This was Aruna’s ultimate defensive spell, ‘Fort of the Pure’. As the spell that protected his life, its effect was to not allow anything but pure water to flow through.
And as he had expected, ‘Sona’ stopped in front of it and examined it curiously, ‘She has no way of going through my spell, but I can’t maintain it forever! I have to think of a way to at least get out of this place!’
But as if a child that became bored of her toy, ‘Sona’ let out a short and disappointed breath before swinging her left arm at the wall and blasting open a hole in it.
“Wha– Guhhh!?” Before he could even finish a single word, ‘Sona’ had already gotten hold of his neck and raised him up, “Aside from playing with water, don’t you have anything else?”
Aruna ignored her question and immediately sent out a right knife hand toward ‘Sona’s’ chest and a left knife hand to her right eye. Both of his hands went through their intended targets and Aruna finally felt some resistance from them, ‘Finally!’
But he was soon slapped by reality as horror dawned upon him when he saw that she was still sporting the crazed smile with a hole in her chest and with a gouged out eye, “That’s something different, but anyone could do that.”
Fear for his life finally took over most of his rationality as he completely panicked and pulled back his hands and started stabbing ‘Sona’ everywhere he could reach, “AAAAHHHHH!!!!”
Still, everything he did was as futile as dunking his hands in water before pulling out just as fast, and before long, he began moving his other two limbs, “YOU MONSTER!!!!”
Naturally, Aruna also tried grabbing the arm that Sona was using to hold his neck but it was still the same as the rest of her body, making him panic way more than necessary. If he was a little bit calmer, he might’ve been able to find a way to actually hurt Sona.
‘Sona’ had no reason to extend this farce any longer, so she raised her free hand and the ocean beneath them began to follow her command.
“H-HOW!? HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS!!!?” Aruna yelled at the top of his lungs after seeing his territory being manipulated without his permission. It’s as if someone else started controlling his own limbs against his will.
“The water may be yours, but the flow is mine.” ‘Sona’ briefly answered before pointing her free hand towards his face, “And since you like water so much, You’ll surely be happy with this~.”
A column of gold-tinted seawater rose up and enveloped Aruna. Of course, ‘Sona’ wasn’t actually intending to drown the God who could technically live underwater forever but she intended to do something similar, though much more gruesome.
‘Sona’ wild smile widened and said, “Eat up~!”
The water all around Aruna began rushing towards all of his orifices, instantly bloating the Deity and making him bleed from the inside out.
Aruna wanted to scream, but he was incapable of doing so with the ridiculous amount of liquid rushing down throat.
As if time slowed down, the audience watched Aruna slowly expand like a balloon, and ‘Sona’ giggled at this sight. A few seconds later, without being able to do anything and before ice started forming due to the extreme pressure, Aruna blew up, leaving behind only the neck ‘Sona’ was holding.
The blood-soaked ‘Sona’ cleaned herself up with Magic while she waited for the world to return to its former state and the person who’d be picking her up.

“Eighteen seconds, I see.”, Yoruichi muttered, “It’s my loss. Ask me anything later.”
Serafall happily stood up and said before disappearing above her Teleportation Magic, “Will do~!”
Yoruichi then faced the speechless Deities and asked, “So, do any of you think you could hurt the current Sona?”
Freya turned her eyes away from the screen and said, “I could do it with some Magic, but defeating her is an entirely different problem. Aside from that, I can only think of a few other Gods who could do it, including Takemikazuchi and Loki.”
Loki sighed audibly at Freya’s words, “Take might be able to do it with his swordsmanship that can cut all ‘entities’, but you’re underestimating that transformation. It’s not the same as my half-assed transformation. It’s a complete transformation, and it’s not the transformation of an element. It’s much more basic and simple. It’s a transformation that reflects her nature.”
Hephaestus smiled wryly and added, “I think I have a few artifacts that can deal with that incorporeal form, but if Loki says it’s different from hers, then I guess it’d also be hard for the other Deities.”
While she was not showing it on her face, Yoruichi was surprised by their answers, ‘While the overall power level of the Gods here are weaker than those back home, they are also much more dangerous due to their special abilities.’

“My~ Onee-sama~ It’s nice to see you. Are you here to pick me up?”, asked ‘Sona’ after Serafall appeared while also controlling the sea to attack her.
The countless tendrils of water, however, stopped before they could reach a meter from Serafall and began to freeze. It didn’t just stop there as the freezing extended to the sea below and it didn’t take too long before the entire world became a frozen one.
‘Sona’ looked at all of these with an admiring expression and said, “As expected of Onee-sama. With the power currently available to me, I can’t defeat you.”
“I’m sorry, but I’ll have you sleep for the time being.”, replied Serafall with her unusual serious tone.
It wasn’t too obvious but ‘Sona’ momentarily stopped and her smile cracked for a bit before hiding it behind a laugh, “Fuhahaha, I’ll save you the effort, Onee-sama. I’m not stupid enough to think that Kisuke didn’t leave anything behind to deal with me.”
“Wait!”, but ‘Sona’ didn’t listen to her and closed her eyes, instantly losing consciousness.
Serafall immediately flew towards the falling Sona to catch her. She first checked her condition and found nothing that’s concerning.
But before she left with Sona, she looked at Sona’s face once again with a complicated expression, ‘What was that?’
With that, the crisis that could even potentially end the world was solved, not even half an hour after it started.
