The dragon's harem-Chapter 806 Return of Murder

As the abomination cried, Lydia jumped in and sliced him in half, barely managing to revert back to divine magic before catching Jack and landing on the ground. "We did it!" Jack gasped as he saw the abomination disintegrate.

"This was just one." Lydia said, looking to the side with a worried face.

When Jack looked, he saw a massive hole in the ground. "Arad's clone headed to where the monster's main body is. He wants to become whole again, which means the fight isn't going well." She mumbled.

"If he left before the abomination here was confirmed dead, it's really bad there." Jack said and looked at Lydia, "Can you stop the princess hold now?"

Lydia stared at him with a red face, "Shut up!" She threw him to the side and was about to follow Arad into the hole. "We need to assist him."

"Wait!" Jack caught her by the shoulder, "What could you even do to help?" With a single squeeze she fell on her knees growling and panting, "You can barely move after using that, the rot eats at your flesh even with Asmodeus tailoring it to your body. Don't even bother moving now," He dragged her away, no matter how she struggled, she couldn't muster enough strength to even escape Jack's grasp.

"We can't let Arad fight alone! The real body of this thing would be much stronger!" She glared at Jack, "He'll die! Even if Tempo is with him, I can't see him winning."

"Big words but you couldn't beat him no matter what you tried to do." Jack smiled, "Arad is strong, and he's growing faster than any of us could comprehend. Gojo might be stronger, but he lacks one thing that makes Arad scary."

"Whatever we throw at him, he mimics and uses, he's learning from each fight, and what's more scary, he can mix everything he learned to create new things." She stopped struggling.

"You divine smites are his bane, and he decided to fight you barehanded and started deflecting them without a weapon. Even when you pulled the curse, he ate and spat it back like he did earlier. Most monsters can be planned for, if someone decided to kill Gojo, I bet they could set a plan in a few months and take him down, but I can't see that ever happening to Arad." Jack sat with Lydia beside a tree, resting as he pulled a healing potion for her.

"The way he fights, he reminds me of Adam the father of humanity." Lydia sighed, looking at the sky, "The first man created by god in his shape, a powerful being that had the ability to learn everything in the world, that's why humans are one of the most intelligent races. And after that, Chad, the current human god, also was known to smack everything with his fists."

"Chad? I've read in one of your books that he punched time to move it, you sure that isn't some bullshit?" Jack stared at her.

"Who knows, those were written almost five thousand years in the past." Lydia shook her head, "The only thing I can say is fighting Arad feels like a story from their books. He was weak to divine magic, so he punched it with his bare hands."

"Yeah... that indeed sounds close." Jack giggled.

Back at the university, Eris swung her fist at the abomination's face, caving his shattered nose into his skull with a grin. "Come on! Where did all of your talk go?"

The abomination recoiled back, leaning on the wall. ^What's going on, she's punching me with her mixed fist, but there is something off about her divine magic. After the first hit of Amaterasu's divine magic, there is a second wave that doesn't feel normal.^

CRACK! Eris kicked him in the ear, smacking him into the wall and at Lala's barrier, "Are you this frail weak? I doubt it, what plan are you thinking of?" She grabbed him by the head and smacked him on the other wall, charging another fist and smacked him in the guts.

Lala watched the seemingly one-sided fight with a worried face, Eris was wasting a lot of divine magic in her punches, she wasn't as efficient as other paladins, but instead relied on her durability to push divine magic forward.

What Eris doesn't know is that the barrier Lala made is constructed with Gracie's divine magic, meaning Amaterasu's magic can't pass through it. She isn't receiving divine magic, and her supplies are running dry. This wasn't a problem that Lala knew about or even considered as she never needed to fully drain her divine magic within the barrier, and even if she did, she could get Gracie's divine magic.

With each punch thrown, the abomination had noticed that Eris's overall divine mana supply was running out quickly, so he decided to save his energy and wait, taking hits and holding in a war of attrition. When she tires out, he'll strike back at full force, and the fight shall be over.

^Come on! Monster pugilist of the new Era, show me what you can achieve.^

And then it happened, Eris's punch landed devoid of divine magic, and the abomination knew it was time. He lunged forward, cutting her arm off, and sliced her throat and stomach with his claws before flying straight to Lala.

"It's over! I win!"

Eris had run out of divine magic and she couldn't keep the abomination pinned anymore. Lala could fight him, but that would require her to drop the barrier, which would only result in the students getting massacred.

Lala grunted as if her time stopped, she tried to call upon power from her goddess Gracie, anything that could help flip this situation around, but she was only met with a rejection. A strange occurrence that never happened before, which only meant this was the fated end of both of them.

With the abomination smile, he swung his claw at Lala but could see it from the corner of his eyes, an ugly and bloodied gremlin sitting on the window frame, gnawing on his nails with a crazed smirk.

"Murder!" Pin growled.

Eris's hand appeared beside the abomination's neck, she managed to catch up to him at this speed. She grabbed him by the neck, crushed his throat into his spine, and violently pulled him back with a divine spark.

He gasped, unable to think properly… ^What did happen, she was out of divine magic. I drop my resistance to it in exchange for more power… She shouldn't have anymore, where is she getting it…^ He smacked to the ground, and before he could regenerate, Eris ripped his collar bones out.

Lala stared in shock with a gaping mouth as Pin giggled in the window frame, "That's it my lady, murder, murder this innocent bastard. His crime was the worst, fighting for survival. Rip him to shred, bone by bone while he's alive, this shall be a magnificent deed!"

The abomination swung his fist at Eris's face, but she ripped it off with a bite. His magic started taking a nose dive and his body felt heavier and became sluggish. ^It's that other divine magic that was seeping after her attack, it's now coming in full force, and it's strange.^

Lala did notice that Eris ran out of divine magic, but now she wasn't sure of that as she seemed to still have more in her. Albeit she wasn't sure where that divine magic was coming from, or what that gremlin at the side was.

^I can't resist, I can't identify which god this divine magic comes from, so I can't counter it. It's eating out at my power, at this rate, I'll end up killed.^ The abomination tried to roar, but his throat had already been ripped apart. He tried to stand, but Eris plunged her foot through his stomach and crushed his spine.

"That's it! That's it, mistress! Pin had never seen something more beautiful than this, the crimson red blood dripping, what a magnificent priceless sight, I know I was right." He yelled, scratching his cheeks with his claws, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Even if everyone forgot, Pin never forgot the lady's grace, I kept praying and praying each day that you'll regain your inheritance, and so you did, and even better!"

The abomination's alien anatomy didn't matter, Eris ripped him bone by bone and organ by organ without him being able to resist, the hallway got painted red as she hung his guts on the walls and crucified his corpse on the wall, staring at it with a happy face for a few seconds.

It was only then that Lala noticed something strange; Eris's divine magic was full, even though no divine magic got past her barrier. Pin had already disappeared into a puddle of blood and Eris fell asleep.

Far away inside Sena's white room, a pale-skinned woman with red eyes grabbed Cain by the neck, choking him. "You old geezer! Where is it, I didn't get it."

"I said stop it!" Tiamat tried to pull her away.

"Let him be!" Sena shouted at her.

"Akame, let me breathe…I can explain." Cain waved his hand at her with a nervous and scared face.

"You don't need to breathe! Where is the portfolio? If I didn't get it and you don't have it anymore, it has to be with someone." Akame, the goddess of undeath, vampires, and undead growled.

"I followed my rules, I swear. She had she had a stronger worshiper than you." He waved his hands, "Albeit only one…"

"What do you mean by that? Do you know how dangerous that portfolio is?" Akame was about to punch him.

"I swear. He was…no I mean she now, that little devil changed after his master changed. But, anyway…she was franticly insane, her belief and devotion surpassed anyone in your cults, and you had no one to match her. And since the one in question already had a connection to the portfolio, she beat you into it." Cain stared at her fist, scared.

Akame sighed and socked him in the nose. "Do you think I'm stupid? Those two reasons can't be the only ones, tell me or I'll make sure your life ends here."

"Wait! You'll really kill him!" Sena and Tiamat screamed.

"I know it has to be related to him. Wasn't it?" Akame glared at Cain.

"Well…yeah. She went on a little rampage when the selection process started, but that was while Arad was with her." Cain sighed.

Akame dropped him, "And…"

"He accepted her, and I can't overwrite him."

"Should've said that from the start. Fine, it'll be a while before she fully awakens if she doesn't have your backing; we have time to think of a solution." Akame scratched her head.

"Sowy…" Cain looked at her with a sad face.

Akame growled, "You…" She sighed, "No, it's my fault, come, let's go home." She carried him. "I'll tend to him for now,"
