Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 922 - [Ascendance Of The Goddess of Sins and Virtues] 43/?: Legendary Confrontation! Brontes VS Vretrion 1

A gargantuan figure descended from the skies in the form of zapping yellow thunder, reaching the floor and materializing from the thunder itself.

Vretrion\'s crimson eye glanced at the figure emerge as the sparks of electricity covered her entire chocolate-colored body coated in golden tattoos and firm muscles.

Her golden horns were erected like a large crown over her head, and her blazing golden eye released sparks as it looked over Vretrion from above.

Her long and spiky hair seemed to be as hard as metal, and her body was only covered by leather clothes over her br??sts and crotch.

She held a gigantic golden club covered in spikes, the size of a small mountain.

Her entire body exuded an aura of spiritual thunder… distorting space itself through her sparking electricity.

"Hello, Vretrion, long time no see… I guess you don\'t even remember me anymore, don\'t you?" she asked.

She was a gigantic cyclops… yet she wasn\'t charcoal black, nor her eye was crimson red.

As Vretrion was furious over Kireina hurting his pride by refusing to fight against him, he glared from below at the gigantic cyclops who emerged in front of him.

Her features didn\'t match, she wasn\'t one of his descendants… her skin color, that hair color, her eye… those horns…

She was part of his original tribe…

"A copper cyclops?" he asked.

"So you at least remember the tribe where you originated from," said Brontes, her golden eye releasing sparking electricity as she mildly smiled.

Vretrion grasped his axe as he smiled at her.

"You… How is it possible for one of them to be alive? And… so big?! You were all dwarfs!" he roared, as he suddenly got into a battle stance, his entire body began to exude an aura of pure and abyssal… Chaos!

It was thanks to this Chaos Aura that he used to coat himself that he was able to defeat so many foes, the Chaos attribute negated other attributes and disrupted their harmony, easily weakening most other attribute attacks. This power had evolved into a Divine Aura now, and it was just as potent!

He was able to both enhance his body with this Chaos Aura to negate the enemy\'s elemental attacks damage to an extent and also to enhance his physical power, disrupting the elements of others.

"Well, to an extent you killed us all, Vretrion. You did splendid work there… I just came back from the dead to kill you back," said Brontes, she hasn\'t even changed into a stance and seemed completely relaxed, insulting Vretrion by not taking him seriously!

Vretrion\'s crimson-red eye glared at Brontes dumbfounded, he didn\'t understand what she meant.

It has been several thousands of years since he eradicated all of his original kin, it was obvious for him who slept for so long to forget even the face of the first Heroine he fought, the one is chosen by fate to fight against him, the one representing the last stand of her kin as Vretrion\'s children persecuted them and slaughtered them whenever they fled.

"Hah, of course, you wouldn\'t remember… you\'ve gotten old, Vretrion. Sleeping for so long made you a wrinkly and cranky old man…" sighed Brontes.

"What did you say?! Enough! You will die!" roared Vretrion, as his entire body exuded a Divine Aura of Chaos and covering his big and powerful muscles! Brontes might be taller than him, but he was the Sin of Pride! He wouldn\'t let her insult him anymore!

FLASH!

Raising his golden axe, Vretrion rushed towards Brontes like a meteor of darkness, breaking through his surroundings and creating powerful shockwaves that blew everything away around him!

Kireina attentively watched over, however, she was suddenly distracted by a little bug trying to sneak out of the domain, Khustia.

"You can\'t escape from here, Khustia," she said, teleporting at his side.

"Haha… If it isn\'t… Kireina!" said Khustia while nervously glaring at her.

"I won\'t kill you, for now, stay here and watch as your champion dies bitterly," said Kireina, Khustia was paralyzed by her sole presence and stood right where he was, nodding nervously.

Vretrion flashed towards Brontes with immense speed, which Brontes had not expected from such a big body… but well, she was even faster.

Vretrion\'s axe clashed over the position where Brontes was, his immense strength made the entire place tremble, as spiderweb-shaped cracks emerged all around him in the rocky and cold floor, his flashing crimson eye glanced at the result of his powerful blow, but instead of a puddle of flesh, there was nothing but rubble.

Brontes had evaded him with thundering speed, the one he was b?r?ly able to grasp, but not react to, ending up hitting the ground without being able to change his trajectory midway through!

"Let\'s see if you can remember with this," said Brontes, as Vretrion realized she was right behind him! Her shadow was so big it covered him from all the light of the sun, suddenly, he began to sweat nervously!

No… this couldn\'t be!

Khustia glanced with absolute horror as he saw for the first time in his life as Vretrion began to sweat nervously!

Brontes moved with thundering speed, activating a Divine Technique right away, which used her Divine Thunder Aura and her Divinity alongside Divine Energy and several materials she had gathered and made into formations over her body, the tattoos over her muscular body began to shine brightly!

Her entire body exuded the purest form of the Thunder Attribute, shining with great divinity, all in less than a second!

"Thunderclap Blow."

Brontes\' enormous club fell over Vretrion\'s head, as an enormous thunderbolt fell from the skies, crushing Vretrion with Bronte\'s immense might!

The thunder began to spread all over the surroundings, making the floor tremble all around while shattering it all into boulders!

"GGGRUUUUUAAAAGGHH…!?"

Vretrion tried to resist with all his might, Brontes\' thundering speed was way too fast for her gigantic size, he was left hopelessly resisting her immense blow!

As if she were planting a tree down into the dirt, Brontes pushed down Vretrion\'s body through the floor!

The explosions continued as the thunder began to spread all around, creating chaos everywhere within the divine spatial formation!

SPARK! SPARK! SPARK!

Brontes\' golden eye glanced with slight surprise as Vretrion\'s bald head somehow resisted her powerful blow without exploding like a watermelon falling off a cliff!

However, before she could unleash a second blow, Vretrion\'s entire body exploded with Chaos Divinity, as Brontes stepped back a few meters!

BOOM!

With a loud explosion, Vretrion jumped out of the floor and twisted his body in midair, reaching to Brontes with his axe and unleashing a storm of slicing attacks against her! All charged with Chaos and his Pride!

"GRRRUUUUUUUUOOOOOOHHHHHH…!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Vretrion\'s powerful slicing waves of chaos thundered through the ground, making everything explode as an enormous crater began to form where there was once a gigantic tower, Brontes smiled maliciously as she unleashed her Divine Thunder, all the tattoos around her body, which were all Divine Formations, shined brightly, unleashing an explosion of thunder that enhanced her body to new limits!

"CRUSHING THUNDER!"

FLASH!

Brontes coated herself in pure thundering and flashing yellow gold thunder, reaching Vretrion like a missile while crushing his slashes made of chaos with her own Divine Thunder Aura!

"W-What?!"

Bronte\'s arm raised into the skies, as her fist hit Vretrion\'s face head-on, crushing his nose and making his entire face completely red!

She went for a single punch into his dam face!

BOOM!!!

"MMMFFUGHH?!"

Vretrion\'s entire body was thrown into the air, as he jumped over the floor, generating countless tremors!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!!!

"Unnggh…! S-She… hit me in the face with her b?r? fist?!" he roared in anger.

As the Sin of Pride, which changed after he became a God began to activate, feeding on Vretrion\'s twisted mind and thoughts, his Pride, and infusing it into his very body and soul, enhancing his power continuously!

Brontes noticed this as she grew a bit wary, but decided to confront him, nonetheless, flashing against him with her Divine Thunder coating her entire body, and unleashing countless blows with her club in midair against him!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Vretrion used his enhanced strength to intercept them all with his axe, but he was gritting his teeth in anger and exhaustion, Brontes\' hits had somehow drained his power out of his soul, this was because she was using God Devour with each of her attacks!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Bronte\'s club and Vretrion\'s axe clashed against each other, as Bronte\'s eyes flashed with blazing determination, a blazing determination so strong it created a thundering and pressuring aura, Vretrion couldn\'t help but begin to feel… weak!

No… this couldn\'t possibly be the truth! He was the sin of Pride, he didn\'t have to lose his pride, he had to boast! If he were to feel fear, his entire power would crumble!

"Hah! You\'re feeling fear, don\'t you? Vretrion?! Do you feel it, this fear, this despair?!" roared Brontes, as her club began to become incredibly fast, crushing through Vretrion\'s axe as he used his weapon to defend himself, his entire body trembling with each of her thundering blows, her entire body exuding an explosive aura of thunder that encompassed everything around her!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"Nnnggh…! Aaagghh…! No… I am… PRIDE!" roared Vretrion, as his entire body suddenly exploded with black flames, Brontes thunder was overpowered by the overflowing shockwaves of darkness, as she was thrown into the airs!

BOOOM!!!

Brontes gritted her teeth as she maneuvered in midair, glaring at Vretrion from above the skies.

His entire body began to exude more of this power… this power originating from his Sin, Pride!

Pride\'s power was simple, and Kireina had already told it to Brontes, as she also possessed the Sin and therefore had such a power.

Pride gave its wielder the ability to constantly increase their power in exchange for their own sanity and judgment, it warped the mind of the wielder to become prideful and arrogant to the point of lying to itself.

The more prideful one was, the stronger Pride would become, and the more power you could draw from it, becoming more and more insane as a result!

However… Pride had a very obvious weakness. The more fear and despair the wielder felt, the weaker it would grow! Without pride to feed on its ego, it would despair, and the power would low down!

This is why the best way for a Pride User to continue fighting was to boast, to call themselves the best, to convince their insane minds that they were the best there could be!

"I am PRIDE! I am the STRONGEST! No one else will BEAT ME! No even you, WOMAN!" roared Vretrion, as his power kept surging over his body, his muscles began to bulge intensively as his crimson-red eye flashed with blazing pride!

But Brontes looked at him with a smile.

"Unlike you, I don\'t need a Sin to win. I have confidence on my OWN STRENGTH!" roared Brontes, flashing towards Vretrion and clashing against his axe, which he used defensively again, as her thundering club began to clash through it!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"HAHA! YOU CAN\'T WIN NOW THAT-"

Brontes smiled as Vretrion continued to boast, as she used her powerful legs to uppercut Vretrion\'s chin into the air at a thundering speed, activating several of her tattoos on her leg, which enhanced the speed and power!

BOOOOOMMM!!

"UNNNGGRRRUUUUOOOGGGHH…!"

Vretrion was caught off guard and thrown into the air! His Chaotic Aura was going all crazy as Pride suddenly stopped giving him power again, the fear he felt was making the Sin doubt his resolve!

"Aaaggh…! UNNNGRAAGGHH…!"

He twisted his body in midair, meeting Brontes\' charge and club with a barrage of slashing attacks!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
