Chapter 806: Chapter 299: The Indestructible Diamond_3
Raising his spear to meet the attack, the King of Mycenae was worthy of his past renown.
The power derived from divine blood resonated with the surrounding bloodlines, and mighty strength coursed through the spearâs tip.
Clangâ
Two forces, unmatched in the mortal realm, clashed in an instant, forcing Achilles to halt briefly.
âNot bad, although you borrowed external power, you have the qualifications to exchange a few moves with me.â
âUnfortunately, today I have come not to spar, but to make a name for myself.â
...
Spears intertwined, retreating in mid-air.
Achilles landed on the ground, yet his words baffled Agamemnon.
The newcomerâs strength was unexpectedly potent, but positioned at the heart of the army, Agamemnon believed he had the power to fight, even though the enemy stood alone. Once the army encircled him, the opponent would have no escape.
But now, seeing his demeanor, was it possible that he hadnât used his full strength yet?
Impossible, even if the war god was in the mortal realm, his strength wouldnât have been much greaterâŠ
âHaahâ!â
With a explosive shout, Achilles again advanced with his spear, as the monarch of Mycenae moved forward to meet him, with his generals closely following.
Spears intertwined, but this time, Agamemnon was greatly alarmed.
For, at the last moment, the tip of Achillesâs spear slightly shifted, aiming for his waist and abdomen.
Was the opponent courting death?
I aim for his heart, yet he doesnât aim for my vital point. I wear the god of craftsmanshipâs armor, while he has mere leather clothing; this was a joke.
However, in a duel between demigods, there was no room for hesitation, and within a moment, both landed hits on their respective opponents.
In an instant, immense force hammered through the armor onto Agamemnonâs body, rendering his organs powerless, as if displaced.
Yet at that moment, the King of Mycenae couldnât be bothered with his injuries, as he merely gazed in shock at the enemy before him.
Tingâ
As if colliding with metal, not moving an inch forward, his weapon was of no use.
And before him, seeing Agamemnonâs face full of disbelief, Achilles burst into laughter.
âHahahahaha⊠useless, but Agamemnon, I acknowledge your strength.â
âWere it not for meeting me, there are few in this world who could defeat you. But alas, I am the war godâAchilles!â
Stepping forward, though admitting the opponentâs strength, Achilles had no intentions of sparing his opponentâs life.
Victory means life, defeat means death; this was the law of the battlefield. Though relying on his undying body might seem dubious, was it not also a form of ability?
âYou, are not enoughâbring Ares!â
Leaving these final words, gripping his spear firmly, Achilles stared directly at his first true enemy since his debut.
I will remember you, but it will be after your death⊠yet just as he prepared to deliver the fatal blow, the self-proclaimed war godâs expression faltered slightly, swirling his spear as if to guard against something unseen.
Tingâ
Whooshâ
A metallic clang resounded, followed swiftly by the sound of the air being pierced.
Achilles ultimately failed to block the incoming attack, as a hole appeared in the sleeve of his left arm.
âWho is it?â
His expression darkened; although uninjured, Achilles still felt provoked.
This was his first battle since his debut; how could he return without achievements?
âŠ
ââŠWhat is going on here?â
Far away, atop an unnamed low peak, the blonde deity also questioned.
Hera instructed him to ensure the safety of the allianceâs heroes, and so he did. But stealth attacks are never good, thus he only aimed for the opponentâs left arm.
He had already prepared; should his single strike lead to Achillesâs capture, he would find a way to set him free afterward.
This period in captivity would serve as punishment for his arrogant self-proclamation as the âwar godâ⊠however, what the blonde deity never expected was that his golden arrow and silver bow failed here.
Achilles couldnât evade his stealthy arrow, yet he too couldnât affect his unbreakable body.
