I really didn't want to burn it.

Li Ang shook his head, then kicked Ares in the chin.

"Well!"

This kick was much more powerful than before, and Ares was sent flying, crashing into the rock wall of the adjacent mountain.

While swinging his legs, Li Ang exclaimed, "The high-magic world is definitely more enjoyable. The enhancement level of runes is much higher than in the Qin Dynasty."

"Li Ang! You still haven't explained the situation regarding those multiple girlfriends?"

Aphrodite grabbed Leon's shoulder and questioned him aggressively.

"Ahem, this is a bit complicated. It's like me saying, 'I've fallen in love with a girl who's 10 years younger than me and is still in school.'"

"Then, A removed the word 'love' when spreading it."

"Then, when B was passing it on, he also removed the part about being younger than me."

"As a result, when you listened, you simply didn't want to learn at all!"

After listening to Li Ang's ramblings, Aphrodite coldly asked, "So, what's the connection between this and your many girlfriends?"

"I just want to say that in the process of spreading information, things can be exaggerated and deviate more and more from their original meaning! What you think is very different from the reality!"

Li Ang spread his arms wide, striking a very exaggerated pose.

"So, you don't have a girlfriend?"

"No, but definitely not many."

Li Ang's eyes darted nervously to the other side.

"How many are those?"

Aphrodite was imposing; she practically pressed her body against Leon's.

"There's probably only one person in this world who could be my girlfriend."

Li Ang held up one finger.

DD is just a maid, and the girls in Chaldea are only friends. Athena has never established a relationship with her, and the three Gorgon sisters have never even held hands.

Looking at it this way, Chloris is the only one in the current Greek world who can be considered a legitimate girlfriend.

"Oh~" Aphrodite laughed, "Is that me?"

"of course……"

Li Ang found that no matter how he answered, it didn't work.

Fortunately, Ares, whom he had smashed into the mountain, jumped out and rescued him.

"Li Ang! You're going to die!"

Covered in blood and nearly insane, Ares slammed the mountaintop down on Li Ang.

"careful!"

Li Ang immediately grabbed Aphrodite and jumped up.

Before he could even land, Ares pounced on him and snatched him away from Aphrodite.

In response to Ares's "perverted" behavior, Li Ang threw him away with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"Get the hell away from me! I only hug pretty girls!"

Li Ang gave Ares, who was lying on the ground, two middle fingers as a gesture of goodwill.

"Heh heh, Li Ang! You're dead today!"

Ares wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a bloodthirsty smile spreading across his face.

"I don't think so."

Leon dropped his playful expression, drew his sword, assumed a defensive stance, and gestured for Aphrodite not to come any closer.

Almost instantly, Ares abruptly closed the distance between himself and Leon.

Ares was well aware of Leon's strength, so he decided to strike first.

"Aa ...

Ares, who entered the attack range in an instant, thrust at Li Ang in one fell swoop.

After their previous exchanges, Ares has discovered that when Leon uses runes, there is a preparation process before activation.

Therefore, the best way to deal with Li Ang is to kill him before he can react.

However, Ares's perfect sneak attack was blocked by Leon.

Li Ang successfully blocked a spear thrust that would normally be impossible to defend against.

The shockwave from the collision of their weapons caused the ground beneath their feet to crack open.

At the same time, Li Ang's feet came to a complete stop in order to block the thrust.

This was precisely Ares's objective.

"Ehhhhhhh!!"

Ares's gun once again struck Leon, who remained rooted to the spot.

Li Ang also managed to defend, but he faced Ares's relentless barrage of attacks.

In order to keep Leon's actions under his control and limit his ability to use runes, Ares pushed his attack speed to the limit.

Then, 3 times, 4 times, 5 times...

The mountain they were on had become shaky and crumbling after being subjected to continuous impacts.

Apart from the small patch underfoot, there was nowhere left to put one's feet on the mountaintop.

Finally, with a sudden backstab, Ares disrupted Leon's defensive stance.

"Won!"

Ares was so certain that the spear tip pierced Leon's chest.

The next second, Li Ang was pierced through the chest, blood splattering across the ground. He, Ares, had finally killed this despicable alien god and won the heart of his beloved…

This is how it should be.

"Eh……?"

Ares found that the gun in his hand did not give him the feel of hitting something.

Not only that, Li Ang's figure suddenly disappeared from sight.

"Afterimage..."

Ares could already hear the man's voice from behind.

"So, when it comes to fighting brutes like you, the Afterimage Fist is really useful." Li Ang's pleasant voice reached Ares's ears.

If Ares could see a certain golden pop-up window, he should be able to see a certain system's comment: "[It's clearly magic, where did the afterimage fist come from!]".

Even if Ares saw the pop-up, he wouldn't pay any attention to it; he couldn't care less about such things right now.

calm.

Ares told himself this, but his body began to tremble, and he found his confidence wavering.

In a life-or-death battle, this is an absolute taboo!

Calm down! Calm down, Ares!

Contrary to his usual practice of maintaining a high level of enthusiasm during battles, Ares frantically told himself to calm down.

This cannot be considered a mistake, but Ares's approach can only be described as futile against an opponent like Li Ang.

"Hmph, you're faster than I expected."

On the surface, Ares appeared as calm as a dog, but inside he was panicking like crazy.

This speed is terrifying. How can we close the gap?

Think quickly.

Think quickly...!

Hurry, think of something, Ares!

“Eh…!?”

When Ares came to his senses, he found himself flying in the sky.

He couldn't even see how the mighty God of War was defeated.

"Ugh...!"

Ares let out a painful gasp.

He adjusted his posture in mid-air and regained his balance.

Li Ang was still standing on the mountaintop, but he had discarded Ying Zheng's longsword and instead assumed a stance ready to throw a punch.

"Alright, Li Ang. I admit you're very strong. This is my affirmation of you as the God of War!"

Ares steadied his erratic breathing and gripped the spear tightly in his hand.

Even though Li Ang had already demonstrated extraordinary strength, Ares still believed that he had a chance of winning.

Even if the odds of winning are indeed very low, they are still not zero.

If you can't keep up with the speed, then just give up.

He used the tactic of trading injury for life, waiting for Li Ang to hit him before launching a fatal blow!

Ares decides to take a gamble using his divine immortality!

Come on, Li Ang!

Punch me!

The moment you attack is my last chance to win.

As the god of war, Ares was very confident in his ability to retaliate in times of crisis.

"I am... Ares, the God of War!"

Ares, with his divine wings spread, hovered in mid-air, quietly focusing his attention, waiting for that moment to arrive.

Li Ang on the ground remained relaxed, never considering Ares a threat.

"Let's do an experiment. Let me see just how destructive the skill that was interrupted by Lao Zheng last time really is."

Li Ang opened his arms and took a deep breath...

Then he choked.

"Cough cough! Pui pui, this flying sand and stones is polluting the environment too much, it's all PM2.5."

Having failed to show off, Li Ang stopped being coy and directly used the runes he had engraved on his right fist.

“? (sōwilō, sun)!”

There was no warning at all.

Li Ang's figure suddenly disappeared.

In that instant, no, even before that, Ares swung his spear.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Won!

Ares was certain he had won.

Li Ang was already in front of him, his fist was about to hit Ares in the chest, but Ares' gun was also in Li Ang's path of movement.

At this speed, neither side can avoid it.

But relying on the gun's length advantage, Ares believed that the gun would pierce him before the opponent's fist could hit him.

Anyway, it's just one punch, I'll just treat it as a bug bite.

Just as Ares was thinking this.

"Eh……?"
