Chapter 717 - [Scripted Event: War Against Gods] 3/?: Exhilarating Battle!

-----
Kireina used the combination of her Divine Warp Skill alongside her Void and Spatial Attribute Magic to do short-range teleports around the battlefield, surprising his enemies who had underestimated her capabilities as a Space Attribute Magician.
This was mostly because Hephaestus and his family already knew that she had eaten (or partially eaten) Kheseerad, but didn't know that Kireina was able to absorb the knowledge and memories of the gods she ate, acquiring their experience and immediately being capable of wielding the powers she stole after eating them.
However, there was yet another layer of unknown aspects, as the Divine Warp Skill, a special skill she acquired after eating several Legendary-ranked weapons dropped from the dozens of small dungeons around the Ollathir's Kingdom territory had granted her an even easier way of using spatial magic.
Divine Warp gave her the ability to instantly conjure the Warp Spell without any need for a magic circle formation, making it an almost instant short-ranged teleport, this was even more powerful if she poured Spatial and Void Attribute Mana into the Skill use, making it faster and more effective than before.
Using such a powerful tool at her disposal, Kireina warped right behind Hephaestus and his wives, charging all of her chaotic Divine Soul that was made up of many divinities and divinity fragments, generating a powerful cannon of pure Divinity charged with God Devour.
The cannon of pure divinity that was fired from her chest, which had shaped itself like the monstrous jaws of a deformed and fierce dragon, reached Hephaestus and his wives within an instant!
Flash!
Hephaestus, however, saw it coming beforehand, readying a barrier to hold on to the immense power, that was easily breaking down his barriers like nothing.
Calling upon his wives to assist him, Aglaia and Kabeiro released their divinities, passing them through a special ring within their hands, which then converted itself into Pure Divinity of no attribute, flowing towards Hephaestus body as his muscles bulged and his size increased by a few meters.
Raising his hammer, which quickly increased in size as the furious blazing god infused power into it, Hephaestus roared, hitting Kireina's attack with his own hammer and a simple Divine Technique that employed itself similarly to a Hammer Technique.
An incredibly loud explosion unfolded, as the chaotic divinity of Kireina clashed against the strong, blazing, and pure divinity of Hephaestus.
A false Goddess against the God of Fire and Blacksmiths, known across all Realms.
Kireina suddenly felt the pressure that Hephaestus put into her attack, as Aglaia and Kabeiro kept infusing their Divinity into their husband, while Jorgrakog directed its offense against Nesiphae and Zehe.
"Well, maybe I should show you this little hammer I got, it's pretty similar to yours!" said Kireina, as she stopped infusing her power into the powerful cannon that came from the monstrous chest of her gigantic mechanical body, suddenly summoning an enormous weapon covered in blazing flames.
Hephaestus roared, flying towards Kireina while raising his hammer, his wives at his side kept infusing Divinity into his body, while also unleashing their own attacks against her.
Suddenly, Hephaestus was left in surprise at what weapon Kireina had truly summoned.
An enormous hammer of at least ten meters of height of a similar design of his own, but with an even more intense power coming from it!
Kireina grabbed it with her enormous metallic claws, glancing at Hephaestus with her five heads smiling devilishly.
"This is a special Skill I got after I stole your daughter and ate the Dream World where she was imprisoned, do you like it? I named it Hephaestus Hammer!" laughed Kireina, provoking Hephaestus until he lost his temper!
"YOU FAKER!"
Hephaestus roared, covering himself in flames as Aglaia and Kabeiro moved a bit farther away from him due to the dangerousness of his powers against them, who were not the goddess of fire.
"Give me back my daughter!"
Hephaestus flew towards Kireina, gnashing his teeth in anger as his eyes completely lost their natural color, becoming completely red as blazing flames came out of them and his mouth, his red skin became even redder, as his body slowly began to grow larger, now surpassing seven meters!
Flash!
Kireina then used Divine Warp, appearing behind Hephaestus as she clashed against his body with her hammer, while using her [All Weapon Techniques Divine Fusion Combo Attack] Art, an Art that could be used with any type of weapon, with enormous power!
Hephaestus saw as not only hammers, but spears, large blades, swords, daggers, javelins, axes, and many other weapons appeared as millions of tiny phantoms, covering Kireina's hammer and increasing the intensity of her blows and the speed of them!
Clash! Clash! Clash!
Hephaestus retaliated with his own hammer, as both enormous weapons clashed against each other in a dance of flames and ridiculous power!
"I am going to burn you to a crisp! Divine Blazing Inferno!"
Hephaestus conjured a powerful Divine Technique, employing it on the tip of his hammer, releasing an inferno of endless flames that bathed Kireina entirely!
Kireina covered herself with her hundreds of magic barriers of all types of attributes, divine domain, divine aura, and even Aegis, but everything seemed to be broken!
Even when she infused God Devour into them to counter Hephaestus Divine Techniques' Divine Energy!
"Have I been fighting trash this whole time?! This guy can easily ignore the God Devour infused into my barriers, his attacks are going right through all of them!" Kireina thought, deciding to go into the offensive, as it was the best defense in such a situation.
While being caged in divine flames that burn through her metallic body and even began to grill her entire soul, Kireina called upon every weapon she had, this included the Wyvern Overlord!
Flash!
As if teleporting, the Wyvern Overlord appeared at her side.
"Kireina-sama!" he said.
"Now, fuse, just as we practiced earlier!" said Kireina.
"A-Ah! Yes!"
The Wyvern Overlord flew towards the rest of the weapons all floating in a mass near Kireina, as Hephaestus noticed that she planned something suspicious, aiming his attacks towards the weapons she held!
"I won't let you do as you please!" said Hephaestus, charging a large sphere of flames.
"You can always have some fun with us!" said Brontes, falling with a thundering speed and clashing her enormous club against Hephaestus's head, releasing a thunderstorm explosion across the battlefield!
BOOM!
"UNNGHH?! You mere mortal!!!"
Hephaestus seemed to only be affected by a few seconds, as he didn't even seem to have taken any damage at all from Brontes' God Devour charged attack!
"Truly… this is a god, isn't he?!" she thought, enhancing her mechanical body and clashing against Hephaestus once more, as the flames of his hands and hammer began to break through her mech, exploding and filtering inside!
"Get off my way, you pathetic ant! Burn until nothing remains!" roared Hephaestus, smiling maniacally as he infuses more flames into Brontes, who tried to protect herself with her Spiritual Barriers and every buff or thunder magic spell or club technique at her disposal!
"Aaaghh…!"
Brontes cried in pain, as her merch began to explode in various areas, although it held outstanding regeneration, it was too slow to catch up to Hephaestus's monstrous speed and power!
"Brontes!"
Zehe appeared right ahead of Brontes, conjuring a wave of darkness that fell upon Hephaestus, entangling him and trapping him momentarily in a world of endless darkness and black tentacles!
"This is nothing!"
Hephaestus roared once more, exploding in flames and breaking down Zehe's powerful Abyssal Shadow Cage in less than a second!
"Short Range Warp!" said Zehe, grabbing Brontes with her as she disappeared right in front of Hephaestus, appearing a few meters away!
"You're not going away from me!" roared Hephaestus.
"Did you had your fun chasing my wives?" asked Kireina, as Hephaestus only heard her tender voice until sharp pains surged right into his chest!
FLASH!
"W-What?!"
Hephaestus glanced at his own body, his chest has been impaled by an enormous spear that had flown at an incredible speed towards his chest!
The enormous spear seemed to contain enormous quantities of Divine Power as if it had been made by the combination of many Gods!
The Blacksmith God vomited mouthfuls of blood as Aglaia and Kabeiro rushed to his assistance, only to be stopped by Brontes, Zehe, and Nesiphae!
"This is a battle of only you and I, Hephaestus, don't get your wives involved!" said Kireina.
"You're involving yours as well, you… b-bitch! What kind of weapon is this?! How did you… Make this?!" roared Hephaestus, trying to employ his enormous force into the spear, crushing it with his blazing hammer, as the spear was shattered into pieces!
Crash!
"Enough of this…!"
Hephaestus, however, was left with a tremendous wound on his body, a giant gaping hole that released a river of blood.
"Nirvana Flame!" cried Hephaestus, conjuring a healing flame that quickly healed his entire wound in less than a second, as the pieces of the spear that Kireina created, quickly came together like liquid metal, shining brightly with flashing light!
"Gungnir, impale!" said Kireina, as Gungnir once again moved with enormous precision, flashing through the sky and air, breaking the wind and impaling Hephaestus once more!
"Not anymoreeeee!" cried Hephaestus in anger, crushing Gungnir once more!
Crash!
"Gungnir!" said Kireina, as her immortal spear once more reformed!
"W-What?! What kind of Divine weapon is that?! Impossible!" said Hephaestus, he had already destroyed it two times, he could swear that he even saw how the divinity inside of them dissipated into nothing!
But somehow, the spear kept regenerating!
"This is the power of Gungnir, it is connected to my own life, as long as I exist, it will always come back!" said Kireina.
Gungnir was not exactly a weapon, but a Skill and Skills couldn't be easily destroyed nor taken away, as long as the Skill remained within Kireina's Skill List, she was able to employ its power, and summon it over and over again!
"A Soul-bound weapon?! But even then… you should be taking damage from the damage it took! You faker!" roared Hephaestus, rushing like a blazing meteor against Kireina.
"Nyarlathotep, release!"
Kireina, however, stayed calm as she began to shapeshift! Enormous tentacles appeared all around the battlefield, as gigantic gaping mouths and countless eyes directed their attacks at Hephaestus!
"W-What is this?!" roared Hephaestus, unaware of such a technique that Kireina possessed, which let her take upon her 'true' form, converting herself into a primal mass of endless flesh!
The gigantic tentacles began to grab Hephaestus one after another, as he burned them one by one, but never finding a weak point in the sea of flesh!
At the same time, Hephaestus felt the endless pressure of countless eyes cursing at him constantly, it was as if he was being showered in a rain of daggers!
Although the curses bounced off his powerful divine body and divine aura, he still felt the pain and pressure of each curse being inflicted upon him even if for a quarter of a second!
Hephaestus kept burning Kireina's flesh, only to realize that another Kireina had appeared atop him!
"Huh?!"
"Gungnir, Divine Impaler!"
Kireina employed Gungnir once more, as the sound of a wyvern roaring could be heard coming from the immortal spear, flashing through the sky and piercing the wind, alongside Hephaestus and his dozens of barriers one after another!
Hephaestus was completely enraged, using his hammer to break the spear over and over again, only for the damned artifact to reaper once more as if nothing!
Within all of this battle, no more than a few seconds had gone by, the incredible speed that this battle was being taken in was immense, leaving slow gods such as Jorgrakog without many places to intervene or attack, ending up targeting Kireina's wives and assisting Aglaia, Kabeiro, Apollo, and Cyrene.
Hephaestus suddenly enhanced his body to his limits, as fiery divine blaze encompassed him entirely!
Kireina was even able to see his Divine Soul, which looked like a fierce specter of flames!
She wanted to devour it more than anything!
But she knew that this fight was just starting.
From the information she got from Apollo, Hephaestus was one of those Gods who had more than a hundred aces below his sleeve, he had gathered countless tricks, artifacts, items, and more through his long life, and he has not employed half of them yet!
Kireina knew that for this fight to be successful, she would need to use every kind of skill she had been acquiring, sharpening, and using her entire life!
A decisive battle!
However, although Kireina could not help but feel tremendous fear over the possibility of her defeat…
She could not help but smile.
This was exciting.
Finally, a good challenge.
For someone like her, who has been seen as an incredibly strong being, to have so many challenges left for her to cross through, this was incredibly exhilarating!
She could not help but smile!
"Now, Hephaestus! This is just starting to get good!" laughed Kireina, as Hephaestus glanced at her with anger, thinking of her as an insane monster.
"I won't let you make of me a plaything!" roared Hephaestus, releasing endless amounts of flames that completely burnt down Kireina's grotesque flesh clone that she created in an instant!
"Would you like to see what's inside of my soul, Hephaestus?!" asked Kireina while laughing, as an enormous and grotesque soul emerged from her body, alongside its gaping maw, a gigantic labyrinth could be seen from the inside!
And within that, an enormous wave of monsters descended over Hephaestus!
