Chapter 43:

Ryuujin vs Slippy

AGONY! The Omnipotent Deity's Dastardly Quest


Kumi stretched as I gathered everyone before me.

"We'll be embarking on a quest to save Nika and co. They're currently being held in Antarctica. One month is the timelimit, though that could easily go out the window the closer we get. The good news is that I'll be with you. The bad news is that my rivals will continue to pummel us with foes, actually that's good because you can use them as fodder," I smirked.

"And why am I here?" Phoenix growled.

"Cause I'm gonna make use of you. Relax, we won the territory battle so Thrasher can't come back here. Speaking of which, Arizona has now been added to the blue lagoon scenery settings."

"Sweet, so every place we concure gets added to the scenary? Let's conquer the world!" Kumi smiled.

"Quite chipper for a woman that was just beheaded," Honoka chuckled.

"Should have seen how many times Nika lost her head in training. But in all seriousness, you did incredible staying alive in that state Kumi. Don't worry, you'll never be in such a situation again," I declared.

"Thanks... Oh yeah what's my level?" Kumi asked.

"Level 40. You took out a big rig after all."

"Sweet! Am I higher than Zeno?"

"Same level.

"Well, I'll change that. Thanks to the pact, I got some sick new moves I'm itching to bust out."

                                                                               ...

"So why are we heading down south instead of taking a boat?" Kumi asked.

"It's the safest route. If we charge straight there, Nika and co will be killed instantly, but if we go the longer and more enemy filled path, their guard will be lowered, and we can snag some territory for the scenic view," I stated.

"Sweet."

No one else took issue with my reasoning. It really was quiet without Nika to complain. Zeno would also complain, but it was better for him to stay at the mansion. Even though he was the same level as Kumi, he was easily the weakest now that Kumi made a perfect pact with me.

                                                                                  ...

We arrived at the Panama canal without issue and began to head towards South America.

Suddenly, a swarm of goons attacked.

"Did you think you could sneak by without me noticing!?" a chupacabra dressed like a luchador asked.

A gila monster in a banana suit and cactus man also stood beside the luchador.

"I'll take em," Phoenix growled as he prepared to fire.

"Nah. Kumi, the luchador's not an Omni. He's level 70, but I think you can get him thanks to your power up. Tetsuka, Ryuujin, the others are yours," I said.

"Did you take out my brother?" the gila monster asked as Ryuujin  flew towards him.

"Oneshot him," Ryuujin replied.

"Well, won't be doing that to me."

Ryuujin attempted to take him out the same way, only for the gila monster to slip out of the way.

"My name's Slippy. I can slip through time and space," the gila monster stated as he ate a banana.

"What are you a monkey or something?" Ryuujin asked.

Ryuujin then attempted to suck Slippy into a black hole. Slippy easily slipped out of it. He then slipped his way towards Ryuujin and unleashed an attack.

"Poison banana breath splat!" Slippy shouted as he spat a liquid mixture of bananas and poison at Ryuujin.

Ryuujin attempted to counter it, but it slipped through his kanbo and hit his face. He glared and surrounded himself in gravity. When he reemerged a moment later, he was fine.

"Well that's odd, that stuff was supposed to stick to you. I made it so it would slip through your attacks," Slippy muttered.

"Slipping through time and space? I distort that shit for breakfast," Ryuujin retorted as he slammed his club into Slippy.

Slippy went flying, but quickly regained his footing.

"Seems you'll be tougher to deal with then I thought," Slippy smirked as he wiped the blood off his lip.

"Nah, I win," Ryuujin grinned.

Slippy suddenly found himself unable to move.

"How! I can slip through gravity easily, so why!?"

Ryuujin simply smirked as Sliippy began to crumple from within. As his blood spewed out, it suddenly hardened and flew towards Slippy constantly impaling him.

"Too late dumbass. I was controlling your blood. Gravity dragon's Interdimensional conk!" Ryuujin shouted as he went into dragon mode and crushed Slippy with the top of his kanbo.

I then destroyed Slippy for good with my dark flames.

"Grr, I the great commander Luchacabre, hereby order everyone to travel south as fast as you can!" the luchador yelled as he began running away in terror.

"Get back here! I'm gonna wreck you!" Kumi shouted as she gave chase.

The cactus scowled and instead leapt towards Tetsuka.

"I don't take orders from mortals," the cactus scowled.

"So am I to watch?" Honoka asked.

"Nah, you and Phoenix are on fodder duty," I said as I pointed to a swarm of oncoming goons.

Unlike before, these were a mixture of Omni and mortal from across the Illumous alliance.

Honoka readied her sword, only for the entire swarm of fodder to burst into flames.

"Worthless," Phoenix grumbled.

"Honoka then went into dragon mode and ate some of Phoenix's flames.

"Oi! The hell're you eating my fire for!?" Phoenix fumed.

"It looked delicious," Honoka replied as power began to well up inside of her.

"You're lucky those are my weakest flames, otherwise you'd have burst in to fire."

"And I'd have easily restored her back to how she was before she ate them," I replied.

"Whatever, I hate the illumous trash so I don't mind killing every one of them."

                                                                             ...

Kumi smiled as she blocked Luchacabre's path.

"Time to flex!" Kumi smirked.
