Side Story 70

[Izanagi Suppresses the Arcane Power of the Monster King Ananta]

[Izanagi Suppresses the Actions of Monster King Ananta]

[Monster King Ananta Resists Against Izanagi]

Groaning, groaning~

Her eyes ached. Her vision blurred. The eye pain gradually spread, turning into a headache.

But.

'Was there such a monster?'

She couldn't do anything now.

'I still can't use it properly.'

How would it feel to effortlessly wield Izanagi?

Arcane Power, the force that forms the basis of this world. If she could freely master that power, control it infinitely.

She even thought she could become invincible.

As expected...

Zzzt-

Ananta's Lightning Bolt that spread rapidly gradually calmed down.

And Tsukuyomi's eyes that confirmed his appearance sparkled.

'It's possible.'

There was an overwhelming power difference between Tsukuyomi and Ananta.

Ananta was an opponent even Zeus, the number 1 in the ranking, and Hercules, the number 2, would have difficulty fighting together.

The power of Izanagi residing in Tsukuyomi's eyes was what could block the technique of such an opponent.

But at that moment...

Swoosh-.

Ananta's eyes turned towards Tsukuyomi.

'Izanagi No Okami.'

"…?"

Tsukuyomi's expression stiffened at the voice that came out of Ananta's mouth.

He knew the name Izanagi.

It was strange.

'Were there others who knew this name besides us?'

Kusanagi Sword.

Yata Mirror.

Magatama Jewel.

Only the Three Precious Children, including Tsukuyomi, knew about Izanagi, created by combining these elements.

Izanagi, known as the creator of Arcane Power. Legend has it that whoever gathers the Three Sacred Relics can obtain its power.

While Tsukuyomi was surprised.

Crack, crunch-.

One of Ananta's dragon heads prepared its breath.

Boom-!

The breath enveloped Tsukuyomi's body. Tsukuyomi, she, reached her hand forward and pushed the breath.

Zzzt, zzzt-!

Ananta's breath and Izanagi clashed. The breath that disappeared from Tsukuyomi's fingertips transmitted directly to her eyes as a burden.

Zzzt-.

The eye pain worsened. In an instant, her sight turned white, followed by dizziness. Tsukuyomi, who barely regained her senses, looked at Ananta and asked.

"How do you know this?"

"I can't help it. Since I've met him."

"Have you met Izanagi?"

Tsukuyomi's eyes widened.

How old was the monster in front of him?

Izanagi.

He was an ancient Ranker even older than Uranus and Tathagata. Moreover, even the Three Precious Children, who had been searching for records of Izanagi for all those years, had difficulty finding clear clues about him.

It was inevitable to be surprised that the monster in front of him had known such Izanagi.

Furthermore...

"Be careful. Izanagi, he also died depending on his eyes like you."

Ananta's words shook Tsukuyomi's mind, who was already feeling the burden of Izanagi.

'Depending on these eyes?'

Ukssin-.

A sudden pain was felt.

A bewildered voice came out of Tsukuyomi's mouth.

"What is this?"

-------------

Son OhGong aimed his Ru Yi Bang at Ananta.

Ananta's Lightning Bolt had suddenly gone out.

At that moment, Son OhGong remembered the words Tsukuyomi had spoken.

-- "I will seal the power of that thing."

-- "How are you going to do it?"

-- "There are ways."

Tsukuyomi, she, had said those significant words while pointing at her eyes. At that time, Son OhGong had not believed her words.

No matter how powerful the item she had in her hands was, the Ananta he had seen was not an enemy Tsukuyomi could defeat. But she had really done it.

"It seems like that guy's Arcane Power has been sealed?"

He referred to the fact that Ananta's Arcane Power had been sealed.

Of course...

"It's a pity, that."

But Son OhGong was not the kind of person who would be glad about that.

Thud!

The elongated Ru Yi Bang hit Ananta's torso. Wielding the massive Ru Yi Bang, Son OhGong unleashed the Golden Cinder Eyes.

『Do you think I'll lose to a Monkey like you just because I don't have the Lightning Bolts?』

Growl~

Numerous Dragons bared their teeth.

The Dragons opened their jaws towards Son OhGong's clones and roared.

『Try it.』

Crack!

A clone's body was bitten by a Dragon's head. The clone crushed by the teeth disintegrated, and another clone collided with the head.

However, the clones and the main body were different.

Son OhGong, with the Ru Yi Bang in hand, managed to crush some heads and reach the torso.

"Ugh-!"

He grabbed the Ru Yi Bang upside down and lifted it over Ananta's body. Arcane Power flowed from Son OhGong's body to the Ru Yi Bang through his palms.

"Grow!-"

Ruyi.

Boom!

The Ru Yi Bang soared into the sky, piercing through the clouds.

Ananta's body sank deeply. The battlefield, which had been immersed in fear, flipped with the appearance of Son OhGong.

What are they doing?!

Boom!

Thor jumped with his hammer held high.

"Don't miss the opportunity!"

Under his command... The Valkyries and the Asgardian Rankers, along with the Olympian Rankers, began to use their abilities. Thousands of skills pierced Ananta's body, and swords and spears wounded his skin.

Crunch!

Ananta's teeth bit into Son OhGong's shoulder.

Tear~!

His clothes tore, and his shoulder was bitten, but...

"Haha!"

Son OhGong just laughed strangely and looked at Hercules.

"Hey, were you fighting against a guy like this?"

His bitten shoulder was completely fine. Ananta's teeth couldn't penetrate Son OhGong's skin. This was possible thanks to Son OhGong's exceptional physical ability. However, if only strength or physical toughness were considered, Hercules was one step ahead of Son OhGong.

"That Monkey...."

Hercules's eyebrows furrowed at Son OhGong's mockery. He was about to say that he himself had been defeated by this guy before when...

"Something's wrong."

For some reason, he knew that the guy's Arcane Power had been sealed. However, even if that were the case, it was strange for things to become so easy.

On the contrary, the easier the situation became, the more his anxiety grew.

Crack!

Perhaps because of that?

Hercules clenched his fists, and his eyes gleamed.

"His recovery is starting to accelerate."

Hoo-.

He breathed deeply, increasing the tension. Letting Son OhGong handle everything was a matter of pride.

"Let's go."

Hercules.

To join Son OhGong, he moved.

-----------------

Her vision was getting cloudier. Tsukuyomi, standing on the clouds, felt like she would faint at any moment.

--"Izanagi, he also died depending on his eyes like you."

Ananta's words echoed in her head.

Izanagi.

The great being who created the Three Sacred Relics. The God of the Three Precious Children, who is said to have died for not being able to control his own power.

'Will I also die like that soon?'

A strange thought took hold of her. And when she came to her senses, she was no longer in the sky.

In deep darkness. Tsukuyomi woke up.

"Where is this...?"

Her view was completely black. A world without light. In that place, only one thing was visible to Tsukuyomi's eyes.

"You've arrived."

A middle-aged man with his head and face bandaged. Although she couldn't see his face clearly due to the white bandages, Tsukuyomi recognized him instantly.

"Izanagi...?"

"Yes, it's me."

He approached her, stepping on the black ground.

"I am Izanagi."

His voice was calm. The eyes shining under the bandages were the same color as Tsukuyomi's.

"You are my daughter. Where are the other two?"

The other two...

Upon hearing those words, Tsukuyomi felt tears welling up in her eyes.

Amaterasu and Susanoo. The two who had been with her all her life were no longer by her side.

"The two... are dead."

"The sadness you carry inside is because of that."

Izanagi put his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't grieve so much. It's not your fault."

"Yes..."

"I will help you see them again."

Tsukuyomi raised her head in surprise.

To those two?

To Amaterasu and Susanoo?

"Really...?"

"Yes. Just trust me."

Crunch!

At that moment...

The head of a yellow Dragon appeared behind Tsukuyomi. With white teeth that didn't match the darkness.

About to bite Tsukuyomi's body...

However...

She hadn't noticed its presence until that moment. Izanagi turned his gaze towards the Dragon behind Tsukuyomi for a moment and then looked back at her.

"I will definitely help you reunite with them."

"Thank you... Thank you..."

Tsukuyomi bowed her head. The tears she had been holding back finally sprang from her heart and ran down her cheeks.

Not even when Susanoo died. Not even when Amaterasu died had she shed tears like this.

But the idea of seeing them again overwhelmed her.

And at that moment...

"It's funny how all the ancient Rankers think the same way."

A voice that interrupted her mixed emotions of joy and sadness.

Crack!

"Uranus, Tathagata, and you too are the same,"

Tsukuyomi, surprised, turned her head.

Kim YuHun, standing with bloodied hands. By his side was Ananta's head, the Dragon, crushed by YuWon's hand.

"Kim YuHun? What is this...?"

She still knew him as "Kim YuHun."

The Ranker who had defeated the Administrators in the Great Celestial War.

"Don't be fooled. That guy doesn't have the ability to reunite you with the dead."

Pum!

YuWon kicked Ananta's crushed head with his foot while saying,

"That guy is playing dirty."

Their gazes met.

YuWon's eyes and Izanagi's eyes met. Izanagi's eyes, protruding from the bandages, shone with displeasure at the interruption.

"Who are you?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I explained, so don't bother."

"How insolent..."

Clang!

In that instant, a red line appeared on Izanagi's neck with a soft sound.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Even though his neck had been cut, Izanagi turned his head with tenacity to see the face of the one who had beheaded him from behind.

"You... are..."

Hiss~!

Izanagi's head and body separated and fell to the ground.

"My... son..."

Even as he fell to the ground, he continued speaking.

'He's quite resilient.'

YuWon clicked his tongue at the sight of Izanagi.

Meanwhile...

"Son... What son? I haven't seen that guy in my life."

Tsukuyomi's expression wavered as she saw the face appearing behind Izanagi's severed neck.

"You, you..."

An expressionless man with a sword in hand. The man waved at Tsukuyomi.

"Hello."

The God of Wind and Storm, a Ranker from thousands of years ago.

Tsukuyomi, a member of the trio along with Amaterasu.

Susanoo.

He awkwardly greeted Tsukuyomi.
