Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 2513: The Difference Between Demons And Gods

Zagreus was having a hard time processing his emotions and even how to react to what was happening. He had become excited when his father showed off his amazing strength, showing that he could go against the strongest beasts that the Demons could offer him!

However, his eyes instantly changed from excited to terrified, as he saw Eligos move at a speed not even he as a Great God could discern, and smashing his father with so much force he sent him flying down into a nearby floating island, leaving a gigantic crater in there.

”F-Father...?!”

He gasped in disbelief, as he saw Hadesʼ body over the floating island, for a moment he skipped a beat, thinking of the worst, that his father was dead.

His barriers shattered and even his divine aura, which increased his stats a lot, was completely dispelled from a single blow.

”D-Dad...?”

As he looked there, he realized that Eligos was already above his father, and he felt his father holding a faint lifeforce trail within him.

He was alive, thankfully.

However, things werenʼt looking exactly good though.

”Hoh? You lived that? Amazing... The last time I hit a God from this world, they exploded into tiny pieces~! Gyahahahaha!” Eligos laughed, amazed by Hadesʼ durability. Zagreusʼ face distorted in anger at the Demon, whose cruelty knew no bounds. ”How interesting! Yes! This is a good feeling! Hades! Stand up! Fight me! Show me what you can do!”

”Haahh... Hahh...”

Hades gasped for air, slowly standing up.

Zagreus thought about going to save his father, but he was stopped by...

FEAR.

He felt so much fear his body wouldnʼt move, no matter how much he considered going against Eligos.

He knew...

He knew how pathetically weak he was compared to that Demon!

With a single blow, he would be torn to shreds and die miserably.

”What do I do?! What... what can I even do with my current strength?!” Zagreus shed a few tears of frustration. ”Why am I so weak, dammit!”

And yet, even amidst despair, as Hades stood up, he faced Eligos with a stoic expression, and telepathically communicated with his son.

”Iʼm still alive, the plan continues as it should be, Zagreus! Weʼll lure the demons towards the planned location! Donʼt lose focus! I am fine... I will survive no matter what, I must see your mother again!”

Zagreusʼ eyes widened, as his dizzy state faded away, glancing at his father down below, he nodded.

There was on time to hesitate!

”Y-Yes, father!”

He didnʼt hesitate, quickly glancing at the other Gods.

”You guys, we have to get going!”

”Okay!”

”Got it!”

”W-Weʼre ready!”

”Hmm!”

All four of them nodded, quickly combining their Divine Auras with Zagreus, as the remaining Demoni Army quickly went back to fight them while Eligos took care of Hades.

”Donʼt let the small fry get away!”

”Catch them!”

”Weʼll drink their divine blood!”

”I want to nibble at their souls~!”

There were currently a hundred more Demons, half of them riding Demonic Beasts, meaning that there were approximately between 150 to 160 enemies, most of them comparable to Great God Realm in power, with a few stronger than that.

”Come catch us if you want! Ukiiii!”

”You canʼt catch us, slowpokes! Ukiekeke!”

The two Sun Monkey Gods laughed as they mocked the Demons, part of the plan, as stupid and childish as it felt even for the monkeys, it worked, making the Demons furious!

”B-BASTARDS!”

”KILL!”

”MASSACRE THEM!”

Indeed, as Fate had said, the Demons were a very easy to provoke race of beings, their selfishness and ego made them excellent to manipulate in certain situations.

The bad thing was their immense power, especially of their leaders, the Dukes, Great Dukes, Princes, and Kings...

As Hades saw the Gods moving through the skies rapidly, he quickly started moving, rapidly unleashing the power of the Spirit within him.

”Ferberite, itʼs time!”

”I was waiting for you to say so.”

FLUOOOSH!

”Hm?!”

Eligos was surprised, as he saw Hades entire body become encompassed by an armor made of black crystals, his entire presence gained a powerful Spiritual Essence, as Spiritual Death and Phantom energies wrapped his entire body like black clouds.

”Donʼt tell me you were saving all that power?!” Eligos laughed. ”Amazing! Interesting! So very interesting! Show me more then, Hades!”

The Demon rushed towards Hades, his giant claws tearing through space as they moved towards him. Hades quickly swung his scythe with all his power, parrying his blow!

CRAAASH!

However, the force of Eligosʼ attack was still immense, enough to create a shockwave as his blow was parried, forcing Hades to be sent into the skies.

”Hah, you parried that?! Thatʼs fun!”

Eligos rushed behind Hades, beginning to chase him as Hades used the shockwave force to properly himself and then used his divinity aura and spiritual aura combined as one to kick the empty air, rushing towards the southeast.

He wasnʼt that far away from the rest of the Gods, but he decided to not remain too stuck together, as this would only place the gods in between Eligos and him, possibly risking their

lives.

”WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUʼRE GOING?! I WANT TO PLAY A BIT MORE WITH YOU, HADES!”

Eligos monstrous, demonic voice echoed behind Hades as he flew away, the monstrous

Demon catching up with him almost instantly!

”Heʼs already above me again?!”

”RAAAHH!”

With a crazed roar, gigantic claws came down, Hades quickly spun in midair with his scythe, parrying the blows, but being ultimately sent down into the cloud seas!

CRAAASH!

”Ugh!”

As Hades felt the clouds filling his lungs, he saw a gigantic silhouette appearing above him, rushing towards him with a creepy smile.

”Hades, you canʼt just escape! Attack him and push him back as well!” Ferberite said.

”Fine...!” Hades roared, as his scythe rapidly transformed, becoming encompassed by

Ferberiteʼs spirit crystals.

”{Abyssal Death God Scythe Arts}: {Spiritual Tempestuous Phantasmal Inferno}”

TRUUUM!

A massive tornado of spiritual phantasmal flames and abyssal death darkness energy was unleashed as he swung his scythe while spinning, encompassing Eligos entirely!

FLUOOOSH!

”Oooh?! Hahahaha! It tickles.”

Eligos was pushed away with immense power and force, yet his body remained unscathed

even while being battered with deadly attacks while being in the middle of the storm-like

technique.

”That bastard isnʼt even taking damage?!” Hades thought. ”Whatever, I managed to push him back

a bit!”

He quickly kicked the air, rushing outside the clouds and into his destination.

”Fate! This damn plan of yours better works!”
