Chapter 318 - A New Power

As a god, Hermes was well aware of how terrifying battles between gods could be. Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the orbs of light generated by the battle between Leon and the Black Dragon would soon spread over.

Gods were like this back in Heaven. When they fought, they didn't care about anything, and the aftershocks of their battles plowed up Heaven again and again.

If it weren't for the fact that these gods were born deities, possessing immense power that allowed them to instantly restore the destroyed Heaven to their original state, Heaven would have been destroyed long ago.

Based on the divine power fluctuations he had just witnessed, the aftershocks formed by those fluctuations would definitely spread at an incredibly terrifying speed.

Although he and Asfi are currently far from the battlefield, the threat will soon spread to them. If they don't leave now, they'll both die here.

He's fine. Qt most, he'll just have to go back to Heaven. But Asfi would definitely die.

Upon seeing Hermes roar like this for the first time, Asfi was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized the seriousness of the situation.

She hoisted Hermes onto her shoulder and began her second mad dash.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

"It's happening again!!!"

Outside, all the gods were watching the situation at the end of the world, and even adventurers and ordinary people began to observe through the Mirror of Gods.

Many people were unaware of the situation within the Mirror of Gods at first, they only saw a sphere of light constantly expanding.

However, after those who knew about it explained the battle between Leon and the one-eyed black dragon sleeping at the end of the world within the light sphere, adventurers and ordinary people from all over the world were all shocked.

The Mirror of God contained only the sphere, nothing else, yet everyone stared at it intently, not blinking an eye, and didn't feel bored at all.

At a time like this, how could anyone find watching the battle boring, even if all they could see was the orb?

Many people were unaware of the millennium pact between the gods and the dungeon, but they knew that the one-eyed black dragon was a calamity to them.

After learning that Leon was currently fighting the One-Eyed Black Dragon, many people began to pray in their hearts that he would win.

"Hestia, how is the situation?"

In Orario, at the library, those connected to the Leon had spontaneously gathered here.

Hephaestus, Artemis, Demeter, Astraea, Loki, Takemikazuchi, Miach, Freya, Kali.

In addition, some of their familia members also came along.

Everyone was very worried about what was happening at the end of the world. Hestia, who housed Ellie's true form, was able to contact Leon, so they all came over.

"I didn't ask Ellie to contact Leon, I didn't want to bother him. However, Ellie told me that Leon's condition is stable. He's not injured, and he should be fine." Hestia said softly, shaking her head slightly.

Hearing this answer, everyone relaxed a little.

They were worried that the battle would be detrimental to Leon, but now it seemed that Leon was as reassuring as ever.

After answering everyone's questions, Hestia muttered to herself, "Not only was he uninjured, but according to Ellie, Leon's strength seemed to be increasing. I wonder what exactly happened over there."

In fact, on the battlefield, Leon's situation was very good.

After the battle against the Black Dragon began, he knew that he wouldn't lose.

Because his attack power was stronger than the black dragon's, the black dragon would need two moves to deal with his full-force attack. This was already a very favorable situation for him.

But as the fight went on, he discovered that a new power was surging within him. Leon didn't know where this power came from, but he discovered that it could actually be combined with divine power.

Moreover, when the two forces are combined, the divine power released by him becomes even more terrifying.

The Black Dragon would normally need to use twice the attack power to counter his attack.

After Leon merged his divine power with an unknown power, his attack power doubled dramatically, requiring the Black Dragon to unleash several consecutive divine attacks to neutralize it.

Sometimes, it would be unable to counteract the attack in time and get hit by Leon. As a result, the black dragon was already quite badly injured shortly after the battle's beginning.

"What a peculiar power." Leon murmured to himself, sensing a peculiar power within his body.

Even if Leon didn't know what kind of power it was, he knew that the essence of this power was no weaker than divine power. With this added power, he was now even more powerful.

The black dragon, who had just become a god, was immediately plunged into a desperate situation and was forced to retreat under Leon's attacks.

No matter what power the black dragon used, it couldn't gain any advantage over Leon. Its incredibly tough and massive body continued to suffer deep, bone-revealing injuries.

Even with its powerful regenerative abilities, it still couldn't keep up with the speed at which it was injured. It's front foot had just recovered when it's back foot got injured again.

If Leon hadn't needed to hone his attributes with it, the Black Dragon would have been severely injured long ago, or even killed.

Given Leon's current level, there are very few people who can serve as his sparring partner.

The Black Dragon is one of them. Leon estimated that beings of this caliber would no longer be born in the dungeon.

If he didn't seize this opportunity, he would have to to find another chance like the one in the dungeon where the dungeon risked everything to block him.

However, that previous opportunity was extremely rare, and finding another one like that would be incredibly difficult. Therefore, Leon did not want to give up this opportunity.

Of course, even if he raised his stats to the limit of Lv. 9 and met the feat requirement, he wouldn't rank up immediately.

After all, given his situation, if he rabked up, he would become a god in an instant.

He had promised Riveria that he would leave her an elven offspring. If he truly became a god, then it would be impossible for them to leave behind pure-blooded elves.

Leon switched freely between melee and ranged combat, constantly bombarding the Black Dragon, and the fluctuations of divine power became increasingly intense.

The divine power sphere formed by their battle had spread to an unknown distance, continuously eroding the earth.

Outside, the gods and the people of the lower realm still kept their eyes fixed on the Mirror of God, not daring to relax for even a moment, for fear that in the blink of an eye, the sphere would disappear, revealing the situation inside.

They were even more afraid that the sphere would disappear, and that the situation inside would be the opposite of what they expected.

However, in Orario, at the library, Hestia and the others remained completely unperturbed.

Because Hestia and the others had already made contact with Leon.

That's right, Leon was now able to distract himself from the battle and communicate with Hestia and the others through Ellie.

At first, everyone was worried about this situation.

In battles of this caliber, even a moment of distraction can be exploited by the opponent to inflict severe damage. Hestia and the others naturally did not want Leon to be distracted.

However, after Leon explained it several times, everyone confirmed that his situation was not as difficult as they had imagined.
