The dragon's harem

Chapter 856: Brotherly Jumping

Chapter 856: Brotherly Jumping

?

As the Gojo and Korah clashed, the wedding proceeded as normal, and drinks were brought out. The maids poured the wine into glasses and shared them across the tables.

"It's quite windy." One of the maids looked around, they didn't expect it to be like this.

The two walked toward the edge of the garden, and Korah picked a wine glass on his way. "The blood of the gods. Want a taste?" Korah enchanted the wine with his divine magic and splashed it on Gojo's face.

Gojo didn't bother to dodge and took the splash in the face, punching Korah in the guts hard enough to send him flying through the sky and above the city walls.

Korah gasped from taking the hit, but a smile crossed his face. "I wonder, can you handle that?" He looked at Gojo flying at him. ^With just a bit of divine magic I can make that wine several thousand times stronger. Even the gods get drunk from it, I wonder how much you can hold."

Korah's smile quickly got changed to a confused face as he saw Gojo flying toward him, the word ?Sober^ Engraved on his forehead.

Four six-sided dice appeared floating above Gojo's head and started spinning. Korah didn't know what those things were, but he could clearly sense a massive amount of magic coming out of them.

"So, you've still got new tricks." Korah put his hand together and pointed at Gojo, unleashing a massive stream of divine magic.

The stream splashed everywhere as if it hit a stone, sparking like lighting right outside the city. When it faded down, Gojo appeared riding on a glowing unicorn. The dice above his head stopped for a second at 4-4-3-1 and started spinning again.

The unicorn pointed its horn at Korah and unleashed a beam of holy magic. Its horn has the ability to absorb energy and unleash it again, but the result will always be weaker due to inefficiencies.

6-5-4-1 The dice stopped again and another dice appeared above Gojo's head, a ten-sided dice that quickly span and stopped at 6. Gojo's body extended up, he grew 6 inches taller. And the dice started spinning again.

"I get it! Wild magic, since when did you have that?!" Korah gasped.

*****

When Gojo was standing at the end of the Styx, the river linking life and death, the plane managed by Ereshkigal, he had talked with the archangel Aria and was given several choices. Between the heavens and the planes of torment, Gojo had picked a peculiar choice.

Even though granted the right to access all heavens, and being especially invited by Kali, he instead chose a plane of torment, the chaotic primordial soup of Limbo.

After one look at the plane of insanity and uncontrollable magic, the place where trees grow upside down, and where frozen water boils with meat and turns into sparkling gems of immortal frogs and laser zebras. Gojo's understanding of wild magic started growing deeper and deeper, even more than the time he swapped bodies with Lucy.

The plane of nonsense mixed with Gojo's relentless search for the height of magic, and with his body now being detached from his soul, a power only achievable by transcending death was achieved.

"DRAGONS CAN'T USE WILD MAGIC!" Korah shouted at the top of his lungs, flying toward Gojo with a clenched, fist and swinging at his head. The punch missed...5-2-2-1 His fist slipped past Gojo's body which now exploded with grease and oil.

5-3-5-4

Gojo teleported away, leaving the grease behind and it blasted into flames, burning Korah alive.

The dice above Gojo's head kept spinning, this wild magic belonged to him and not Lucy, it functioned on different rules than hers, and still far away from Gojo's full grasp, he didn't know what are the chances and effects of wild magic until he rolls each of them at least once. The numbers above his head are an indication of the roll, but neither he nor Korah understands if it's their combination or addition that corresponds to each effect.

Due to the current situation, Gojo didn't have time to play with his wild magic or even test it, so it's a gamble, testing if it can help in this fight, and there is one effect he hopes to be in his pool of choices, one that could change everything.

CRACK! A fist landed on Korah's burning face, smacking him to the ground with a burst of energy, Arad had arrived to help his elder brother.

"You're back, coward..." Korah growled, but Arad lifted a finger and so did Gojo.

[Void Expansion: Nuclear Chaos]

[Void Expansion: Magical Chaos]

Despite looking vastly different, the two brothers were strikingly similar, both taming the uncontrollable nature. While Arad specialized in taming and controlling matter itself and commanding it, Gojo had his hand stretching in the chaos of magic.

As Arad focused on crushing and burning Korah's body with endless beams of pure nuclear energy and heat, Gojo used his superior understanding of magic to challenge the divine barrier protecting his soul.

Being clubbed to death like this, Korah pulled all the stops and said fuck it. Let the gods come if they want...he unleashed his entire divine magic, committing the sin no god should ever do, using their full power in the mortal world.

With a body burning in divine magic, he forced through Arad's nuclear energy and clenched a fist, swinging at him and Gojo at the same time.

Gojo noticed that several new layers were forming around Korah's soul, reinforcing its protection by several folds. They must hurry before he reaches peak performance.

Arad and Gojo surrounded Korah and started swinging at him left and right, each of them helping the other with their part. Gojo assisted Arad in oppressing Korah's physical body while Arad did his best to help with the soul hacking.

Korah, gasped, getting beaten to death. ^Those two are in sync, it's like they know what each other's thoughts. No, void dragons communicate telepathically, that must be it. Communication using direct brain waves and emotions, it's hundreds of times faster than words and since I don't understand how they do it, I can't cut it in time.^

Then suddenly, Arad punched Gojo in the guts. Korah gasped, ^Did they miscommunicate, no...something is off...

Gojo smiled, Arad already had one of his nuts but didn't want to pull it out as Korah was bound to strike it out. So, he waited and waited, and when Korah got distracted with his own thoughts, Arad delivered it to Gojo in the fastest way possible he knew, throwing a punch. As Gojo's magic spiked with over 40%, Korah took that chance and lifted his hands, putting

them together.

[Gluttony Expansion: Hunger of the Gods]

Gojo got ready to counter Korah's expansion and crush it down like he had before countless times, but he realized something. Korah was intentionally only targeting Arad, trying to

devour him alive.

Arad had never seen Korah's expansion before, and getting hit with it now that he's using his full divine power from the get-go, might kill him. Gojo abandoned all defenses and lunged forth to protect his brother, engulfing him with his expansion.

As Korah's domain collapsed, he stood in place staring at the two brothers, Gojo was standing in place, his left arm and a large chunk of his chest missing with Arad standing behind him. "Brother!" Arad cried.

Gojo's wounds weren't bleeding, he was already dead, a corpse controlled by his soul and magic. In that state, he clenched a fist, "I'm not done yet, never ever." He smiled, lifting two

fingers up.

Arad growled and stood by his side, clenching a fist, "I'll help."

"Thanks."

Arad and Gojo got ready for one last stance, and even though they looked in sync once more, Korah knew better, they weren't now. Gojo is focused on keeping Arad alive, and thus he's planning to teleport his brother away and attempt one last attack, a large gamble as his wild magic still didn't pull anything great. On the other hand, Arad is standing firmly in place, ready to charge at Korah with full strength.

Just a fraction of a second before the two brothers could charge and start their plan, a large shadow appeared behind them, and they got punched to the ground with a blast.

Korah smiled, "So...I didn't expect you to show up." He looked forward with a grin at the large

man standing there.

"I don't know..." Alcott looked down, "If Arad is my son, what about Gojo?" He stared at them and pulled a strange potion from his pocket.

"You're akin to a zombie, use this to heal before attempting any reckless action again." He

poured it on Gojo, fully healing him.

Arad growled and stood up, Alcott's punch was strangely painful, more than it should be...he targeted the intersection between their brain spine, racking both to the core.

"You might be the strongest human in the world, but what can you do before a god?" Korah

smiled, "You're only good at killing dragons."

"Do you know what the human's god power is?" Alcott said with a tiny grin.

"Chad's power?" Korah gasped.

SLASH! Alcott lunged forth and slashed Korah's arm off, "It's to erase divinity, that why he isn't a real god, but an immortal human powerful enough to stand as one."
