Destroying My Own Novel
Chapter 164

“So he’s also a God from the south?” Thor looked at Loki over his right shoulder with a thick fur coat he put over his shoulder that blocked half of his face.

“Yes, an unwanted and unwelcomed guest,” Loki answered as he walked to the railing of the bridge and sat on top of it. “You have been busy protecting the Asgardian from all kinds of threats, I think you will have some fun with him because he himself claimed that he’s the God of War on the south,”

Thor wasn’t a part of the Constellations or any faction because he was busy protecting Asgard and Midgard from the threat of demons, giants, elves, and dwarves. He already had his hands full with them so he didn’t bother to check the outside worlds that he was protecting, he was more or less like Hades who only cared about the world they were living in.

“God of War? I have been spending all my life in all kinds of wars and brought victory to the people, but I never called myself a God of War. How arrogant,” Thor stared at Ares with disgust.

“I know that you’re in the middle of meeting with them inside, so if you think the meeting is more important than this, you can go back inside because I can handle them on my own,” Loki said with his hands resting on the railing.

“You know me so well, brother, I hate talking and I always ask you to do that kind of stuff for me. This is where I belong, and I will use this as an excuse for a small break,” Thor answered as he walked toward Ares who was still shocked by how powerful Thor’s attack was.

Ares stood up and the flame started to blaze even fiercer than before, his whole body slowly grew bigger while Thor just stared at him and was unfazed by it. Ares walked toward Thor and then started running with his sword ready to cut Thor in half with it.

Thor struck Ares with hundreds of bolts of lightning in a second but Ares blocked it and endured it with his shield. Thor was a bit impressed but it was just a welcoming gift to Ares, he then flew toward Ares and threw the hammer at Ares.

Ares blocked it with his shield and he was strong enough to push back Thor’s hammer with brute force. Without Ares realizing it, Thor was already above him with sparks of lightning on his right fist. Thor punched Ares’ helmet and bent it, but Ares didn’t get knocked back this time, he slowly moved his face and glared at Thor then used his shield to punch Thor.

Unlike Zeus, Thor didn’t need a weapon to control lightning, and Thor could manipulate the lightning as he pleased. He could use it as anything he wanted, and at this moment, he used the lightning as a rope to entangle and wrapped Ares’s giant body.

Loki and Hel were enjoying the show while Hermes was a bit worried about Ares because Ares hadn’t recovered fully after the war against the Death Arcana faction.

They both were fighting for hours and everything was in ruin because of them. Ares kept growing bigger and bigger and made Thor look like a small fly around him. Although Thor had the upper hand, Ares got used to the wrath of Zeus and could endure the bolts of lightning that Thor showered him, not to mention that the angrier he became, the stronger he got.

Thor flew as high as he could so Ares couldn’t reach him with his hand, he let himself get struck by a massive bolt of lightning. Ares could only watch as Thor’s whole body was glowing bright blue and it was so bright that Ares had to squint his eyes to look at Thor.

“You finally decided to stop playing around, brother?” Loki asked with a huge smile on his face as he stared at the sky.

Thor zapped in the speed of light and struck Ares’s head with his hammer, Ares was buried deep into the ground because of that. Ares couldn’t free himself because the cold water on his feet was enough to extinguish the flame on his body.

Ares’s bottom half was buried under the ground but it didn’t stop him from destroying the mountains with his brute strength and freed himself up. Thor was amazed that Ares was able to recover from that, but before Ares could use his full power, Hera came out from the Kingdom.

“Stop it, Ares!” Hera’s voice was echoed throughout Niflheim that even Nidhoggr stopped gnawing on the Yggdrasil’s root and stared at her.

Ares looked down and saw Hera’s expression, she was furious at him and so he decided to stop fighting Thor and shrunk his body back to normal. Thor was staring at him and stopped attacking him then flew back to Loki and Hel’s side.

Hera crossed her arms and it made Fenrir whimper because he could feel her wrath, Hel had to comfort him by rubbing Fenrir’s mane.

“You came to someone’s world and destroyed it! Do you understand how stupid that is?!” Hera yelled at Ares like a mother.

Ares was covered in wounds and Hera couldn’t help but pity him, she then gave a million Arcana Coins to him so he could use them to recover.

“What are you doing down here, mother? In a dark and gloomy world of the northern Gods,” Ares asked as he glared at Hera with suspicion.

“So you came here just because of your suspicion?” Hera squinted her eyes with disbelief. “Did Zeus order you to follow me, and used Hermes’s power?” Hera looked at Hermes and he didn’t want to take a part in this because he was following orders from Zeus.

“Even if father didn’t tell me to follow you, I’m still suspicious of what you’re doing down here,” Ares answered. “Tell me that you’re not trying to scheme something behind father’s back,”

Hera sighed as she rubbed her nose bridge. “You’re as foolish as him,” Hera said.

Mykel finally joined them with a woman walking behind him, Ares looked at Mykel and he was a bit shocked but then he was totally shocked when he saw the woman behind him. A woman with a black hair bun and wore a black see-through dress that showed her shiny and smooth shoulders and her whole back stared at Ares with a worried expression.

“Persephone?” Ares and Hermes said at the same time. “What are you doing here?” Ares asked.

“What else do you think she’s here? Of course, she’s asking our help to replace Hades,” Mykel answered with a cigarette in his mouth.inn𝘳e𝑎𝘥. co𝐦

“Why ask their help? You can ask father or Poseidon to help you replace him,” Ares asked as he kept staring at Persephone.

“Poseidon was the one who suggested her come to us because he knows that we can help her,” Hera answered calmly. “He knows about what I’m doing down here, your father is a fool and if you ask Zeus or Poseidon to look for Hades, what do you think will happen to them if Lucifer was planning on luring them both to his trap?” Hera asked with her eyebrow raised.

Ares realized that would be the case and he was blinded by his suspicion.

“Have you calmed down now?” Hera asked with her eyebrows furrowed and showed a disappointed expression at him.

Ares looked down as he nodded his head and immediately sheathed his sword and put his shield on his back.

“You haven’t changed at all, Ares. Always brought chaos and used violence to get whatever you wanted,” Athena’s voice could be heard.

Ares lifted his head and was surprised to see Athena come out from the gate with Artemis, Dionysus, Apollo, and Aphrodite walking behind her.

“Athena? What’s going on here?! Why are all of you here?!” Ares looked at them with disbelief.

“Why don’t you join us and enjoy the feast with the other Gods and Goddesses?” Mykel asked as he tilted his head toward the gate.

“A feast? With the other Gods and Goddesses?” Ares squinted his eyes and he was so confused.

Mykel chuckled and turned around. “You can leave if you don’t want to,”

Hera and the others left and went back inside the Kingdom while Loki and Thor stayed behind.

“Come, it will be fun,” Loki smiled at both of them.

Ares and Hermes looked at each other and then Hermes nodded his head. They both decided to join them in the Kingdom with Loki and Thor.

“You’re not bad for calling yourself a God of War,” Thor scoffed and looked at Ares.

“I’m not even using my full power, don’t ever think you can beat me if that was your best move,” Ares scoffed back at Thor.

“You’re missing an important part, God of War, this world belongs to my niece, I don’t want to ruin her world so I didn’t even use half of my power,” Thor replied with a smile on his face, then Hel looked back and saw the mess he made.

“Well then, let’s have a rematch someday, Thor,” Ares smirked arrogantly at Thor.
