The Sword of Disidia was an impressive weapon that had been passed down to Nathan from the Crescent Moon Dimension. It had been wielded by the wielder of sloth and his father before his father's death. 

He felt an immense burden on his shoulders with the sword--the task of slaying the gods. It had been presented to him as if it were a joke, yet he couldn't be sure of the actual seriousness of the mission.

"Why would a human have to kill gods?" he pondered. "Where did this monumental task come from? And who crafted the sword?" he asked himself.

Many tales remained unheard concerning the sword—why it had come into Nathan's possession rather than the names inscribed on the sword and why it bore such a great burden. He even wondered if Leon or his stepmother had an ulterior motive and wanted the sword, which was the cause of Leon's actions against him.

Despite all of that, The Sword of Disidia grants its wielder the ability to execute Absolute Attack - an attack that is completely unstoppable yet can still be evaded with enough speed.

Upon hearing this, Nathan realized that if someone was faster than him, they could evade the Sword of Disidia's Absolute Attack. "If that's the case," he said, "then I'll just have to get faster."

[Random (Strength) Stats -2]

With such tremendous power, the sword also carries a hefty penalty - a random two stats reduction every second and a 70% stats penalty that stays in effect for one week after it is used.

"At least I don't need to worry," he said, exhaling a sigh of relief, "and I hope that I won't need to face any issues over the next week." Fortunately, he still has a few choices that could help him if he's compelled to.

Of course, this sword holds the potential to unlock even greater power - provided that everyone registered with it gives their consent to Nathan to wield it - a feat that could only be achieved with their full cooperation.

Nathan was the God Slayer himself, his stepmother should be The Toxic Queen, and The Sneaky Dream Catcher was the one who was present when Nathan's parents were killed, Nicolas Gilson. 

He tried to pursue and search for Nicolas Gilson, hoping to find answers to all his questions or perhaps seek revenge for his parents' deaths.

He must obtain approval from the stepmother who had abandoned him, as well as from the individuals responsible for his parents' death. It sounded like he would have to go to war with them, or be forced to take their lives. 

He gripped the sword tightly, then with a powerful flap of his wings, he soared up and swiftly sliced the sword across the neck of the hydra in front of him, as easily as if it were a pair of scissors cutting through paper.

[Random (Constitution) Stats -2]

Nathan was running out of time and knew he had to hurry; taking an additional penalty for using the sword would be unpleasant since being hit with a 70% stats penalty for seven days would be far from ideal. He needed to finish the task quickly, or else he would suffer an even more severe stat points loss just by wielding the sword.

With a loud shriek, one of the Hydra heads that meteors and lightning bolts had battered its maw and unleashed a flurry of energy blasts at Nathan. He had to act quickly, dodging the blasts and making sure none of them hit any of the other participants.

[Random (Magic) Stats -2]

He experienced a sudden, intense chill as if the air temperature had plummeted. He felt like he was about to freeze, but thankfully, the meteor rocks falling all around him gave him enough warmth to endure the cold.

He angrily cursed under his breath as he kept his eyes fixed on the other head, despite the energy blast fast closing in on him as he flew.

Another five! Nathan had to behead an additional five heads. Quickly, he flapped his wings with great effort and dived to evade the energy blasts being shot at him from multiple directions. He rose upwards, attempting to guide all of the heads of the Hydra to aim toward the sky.

He dived down quickly and precisely, timing his stroke to perfection. With one swift motion, he severed the head of the hydra.I think you should take a look at

Gydarra, still battling a horde of monsters on the ground, felt his body fill with blood; his strikes were not as powerful and his sword not as sharp as before, and he could no longer slay the creatures as quickly as he had been. Suddenly, he found himself surrounded by the monsters, and his body collapsed to the ground as they all lunged to attack him.

Lily sprinted over from a faraway point, brandishing her sword at the savage creatures. Her hands were quivering and covered in blood, but she kept on battling them with all her might. "Everyone, make sure to look out for one another."

Lewis, who stood nearby, repeatedly slammed his shield into the ground with such force that the monsters surrounding him were sent flying into the air. As he did, an arrow suddenly whizzed through the air and struck one of the monsters. Upon seeing this, he let out a short grunt of irritation and shot a glare in the direction from which the arrow had been fired.

Linda, wielding her greatsword, unleashed a flurry of attacks in all directions. She spun the sword with tremendous force and, with a mighty slash, sent numerous monsters soaring through the air. Her body was splattered with blood, and her eyes were expressionless.

All the people present were diligently performing their respective tasks with every ounce of strength they had left.

Nathan was well aware that this was his final attempt; he was too exhausted to engage in any more battles apart from commanding his Golems and Spirit Beasts. He had no idea that something else would occur, especially not a creature of such a powerful caliber.

He dashed swiftly toward one of the giant hydra's heads. With a swift slash of his sword, he was successful in severing all nine of the hydra's heads.

Nathan seemed to have completely lost his strength; he put his sword back into the Inventory, and as he did, the four pairs of wings on his back immediately disappeared. Nathan plummeted from a great height with no way to break his fall.

Fang leaped up from the ground and sprinted towards the Hydra, which was crashing to the earth. It then propelled itself into the sky and managed to catch Nathan.

Nathan's vision blurred at that moment, and he couldn't make out any of the information in front of him; his eyelids drooped.

He murmured quietly as Fang's body slumped to the ground and disappeared from sight, "It's all over now, isn't it?"

"Silver, Night, Rowena," he said quietly, his eyes gradually closing, "please help finish off all the monsters that are left."

After Nathan had managed to triumph over General Ice Hydra, the clash gradually began to dissipate, and the leftover monsters were vanquished.

Cameras in several locations reappeared, showing the aftermath of the intense battle. Numerous spectators looked on in disbelief, unable to believe they had actually succeeded in conquering the gigantic challenge. Nevertheless, not many people were aware of the actual events that had led to the ruin of the General Grade monster.

At that moment, Meriel was seated beside an unconscious Nathan as she attempted to transfer energy into his body, yet it appeared to be in vain. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Meriel was briefly concerned that Nathan had made a tremendous sacrifice to defeat the Hydra.

At this, Linda approached, stopped, and knelt down next to Nathan. Softly, she addressed Meriel, "Is he okay?"

Meriel raised her head, her expression perplexed by the response she should give. "It looks like Mr. Nathan has experienced a significant drop in his stats, but let's hope this is only a temporary setback."

Linda tenderly stretched out her hand and gently caressed Nathan's cheek with her fingertips. "I know he will be fine, he has already managed to overcome this great challenge," she whispered, her eyes shifting down to the ground.
