I.. Am God?

Chapter 144 Kelbrom Vs. Matthias

From the inside of the tower, Matthias saw the fight and smiled, "Echidna, start blasting." He commanded

"Initiating.." Inside his head, Echidna's voice sounded.

Suddenly, from all over the outside of the tower, hundreds of small devices capable of emitting light that is halfway to the light of the sun blasted its rays of light all over the territory, blinding and weakening the Ichtir even more, some even dying because of weakness.

The Tyrant Lord was shocked by the light and was blinded too. "Who was it?!" He yelled.

"Lead the army and slaughter them all!" Kelbrom yelled at his generals.

"Yes!" The generals nodded and descended the tower.

Matthias noticed them and sneered. He messaged Isabelle, "The generals are coming."

Outside, Isabelle saw his message and narrowed her eyes. She rode her sword and went to the charging leaders, "The Thirteen Blackest Generals are coming. Prepare yourselves." She reported.

The leaders nodded and joined her on swords. She then flew away with them, going to the other side of the battlefield. She repeated what she said to the leaders.

"General Lauerio, Lanros, go with Isabelle, we'll handle this." Princess Yuna ordered.

Princess Raya turned to General Tarsus, Tuwa, Tatec, and said, "You three also go with Isabelle. Quick! We'll follow you there later."

"As you wish!" The generals nodded and boarded the swords in the air. They ascended and zoomed to the tower.

Matthias saw them and flew up. Harnessing the power of faith, he placed blessings upon the nine people that would be facing the enemy generals.

While Isabelle and the others were floating in front of the tower, they suddenly felt that they're becoming stronger. Light enveloped their bodies and cloaked them in golden robes.

At that time, the Thirteen Blackest Generals saw them and growled. They jumped and flew towards the nine golden robed people and started to fight against them.

Although they are a lot more skilled compared to the nine, because of Matthias' blessings, any powerful attacks from them disintegrate when it reaches near the nine.

Above, Matthias oversaw the events happening below with solemnity. The last time he saw a fight of this scale was at the world where he and the dragons betted on some kingdoms fighting.

Remembering that, Matthias chuckled. But he returned to his former stature and looked at the small dot on top of the tower indifferently.

The Tyrant Lord Kelbrom was looking angrily at the situation beyond the walls of his territory when something caught his eyes above. He was shocked when he saw a huge silhouette at the center of the huge circle of light hanging in the middle of the realm. The silhouette looked down on him without emotion.

Kelbrom glared at the silhouette and he suddenly heard it talk, "Kelbrom, seed of a Spirit and Erdenkind, you are but a dead spirit of longing. You no longer belong in this realm. Accept, and return to nothingness."

As if he was hearing a joke, Kelbrom laughed at him and replied, "I am alive and unsealed! What nonsense are you saying? I am the sole ruler of this realm, its true owner!"

"You are but a soul of your past's remnant desire. You have died already. Surrender, and return to earth." The silhouette said once more.

"Shut up! I have already waited for years for the realm to return to my rule. Why would I surrender now?" Kelbrom growled.

"You have no chance of winning. It has already been decided by the realm." The silhouette replied.

"Ha! If I was on my peak, I would have already crushed you into pieces!" Kelbrom shouted haughtily.

"Then, I'll convince you that you will never be able to beat Fate." The silhouette stated indifferently.

Matthias, seeing the stubbornness of Kelbrom, raised his hand, pointing at the person below and shot a gold line of light at his heart.

The Tyrant Lord Kelbrom, when hit by the light, suddenly gained immense power. He felt that the seal that made him suffer for a decade was destroyed. When he felt the power coming back to him, he was shocked and delighted, "The world really wants me to rule!" He cackled evilly.

"You will regret giving me back my power!" He smirked with pride and jumped from the tower towards Matthias.

Matthias released divine power on him and called the laws of Aqiartha. Doing so, the whole world responded. The winds flowed towards the center of the world, the energy of nature rushed towards him, enveloping him. Golden light also surrounded him. All that fused into his being and turned him into a golden armored existence, with strings of laws merging together and forming an intricate array behind him.

"Haaah!" Kelbrom wielded his staff and smashed it at the golden Matthias.

Matthias didn't even make a sound and dodged. Kelbrom continued his assaults, but all of it was dodged by him.

From below, all of them could see the battle that was currently happening above. Isabelle looked at Matthias that was currently holding against the Tyrant and murmured, "Stay safe, Matthias."

"Take this!" Kelbrom shouted as he placed his all in one strike. Matthias audibly sneered and said, "It's time to end this farce." He extended his hand and held the staff with his one hand.

Boom! A huge shockwave erupted when he grasped the staff. It was so strong that the Thirteen Generals and the nine Blessed were blasted down by the power.

A lot of the warriors from both forces below were also mushed when the waves slammed down the earth. The land below cracked down and the Tower of Ichosterse's top half blew apart and the bottom half tilted back.

Kelbrom's eyes widened and he shouted with shock and a hint of fear in his voice, "Impossible!"

Matthias threw the staff to the side and retracted his middle finger and flicked Kelbrom downwards.

When the Blessed saw what he wanted to do, they rushed far away from the area. The Thirteen Generals also noticed something and suddenly had grim expressions on their faces and flew far away.

Boom! When the finger hit the body of Kelbrom, his body rocketed down straight to the remnants of the tower and caused a huge explosion, causing a huge pile of sand, dirt, and debris to fly out.

When the smoke cleared out, the whole Ichosterse and the land that surrounded it caved down thirty meters deep. "Suffer!!" Suddenly, when Matthias thought it was over, Kelbrom's crackling and desperate shout sounded from the depths. Then, silence pervaded.

After a while, the Ichtir's attack started to become even more crazed and the Ganaen Army and the Refuge Army started incurring some losses, but the Ichtir army was also getting damaged more as a result.

Seeing that, everyone was slowly getting relieved when suddenly, from the depths of the crater, millions upon millions of Ichtir poured out, scaring them.

Princess Yuna's face turned severe and shouted, "Full on attack! Use everything we got!"

The siege towers that were just standing still the whole time suddenly lowered its drawbridge and revealed tens if hundreds of rifles aimed straight at the enemy lines.

Bang! With that fire, consecutively, the rifles that they were holding fired at the charging Ichtir.

Windows also opened on the towers and revealed cannons. The cannons fired at the enemies and flattened several of them every time one was shot.

Some of the Spirits that were maintaining the debilitating spells, seeing the severity of the situation, joined with the frontline fighters and fought against the growing tide.

Men from the Refuge Army were also starting to get tired, different from the beastmen that were still wreaking havoc.

The Blessed landed down and also started to kill Ichtir. The Thirteen Generals, shrieked and, from their bodies, black smoke slowly evaporated from them, turning them into decayed bodies.

Trun Truun! When they started getting desperate, a loud horn sounded from the north. Tens of thousands of dwarves clad in armor marched and showed themselves from the northern battlefield.

Red banners with a symbol of a black hammer waved on the horizon. Spear heads and axes glew with a cold gleam on the ground.

From the Mountain of Arthron, finally, the Dwarven Army has arrived.

The Dwarven Lord Guqnir, riding his salamander mount, looked at the battlefield with a sigh. He remembered the reason for him to march to the battlefield with his men.

In his memory, after the disagreement between the two parties, the woman general that was the last one to leave uttered the words that echoed throughout the hall and inside his mind, "You dirty the name of Guldir and Gundir. You shall represent the shame of all dwarvenkind."

When she left, Guqnir was silent for a while. When he planned to stand up, a void rift suddenly appeared and from it emerged a stoutly poised man clothed in a black tuxedo and pants. His chiseled face exuded power.

In the eyes of mortals if they didn't see where he came from, the man could only be some businessman that worked out. But when Guqnir saw him, he was terrified, "A Mountain Deity?!" He exclaimed.
