Chapter 839 - Celestial Archer

Now that Femradiel could summon all kinds of monsters, Ryan could take his training to the next step, but then when they tried that, they discovered that all the souls trapped inside the sphere disappeared when Echidna was defeated. It seems that once the owner of the item changes, they have to collect new souls.

"I will return later, once I capture a good number of monsters," Femradiel said.

She left before changing Belphegor for another one, but then Belphegor disappeared, and Poseidon showed up. As if he had gained the chance that he had been looked for, Poseidon began to laugh maniacally.

"Finally, finally!" Poseidon said.

"Finally what?" Ryan asked. "Can you do anything without your trident?" 

"You will see!" Poseidon said and then dashed toward Ryan.

Poseidon was still faster than Ryan. When he kicked him, Poseidon felt the bones of his right leg cracking. As if that wasn't weird enough, Ryan only moved away a few meters.

"I guess that speed still is a problem…" Ryan muttered.

To solve that problem, Ryan summoned his Immobilizing Crossbow and fired at Poseidon. The Greek god tried to dodge those, but their speed was higher than he had anticipated. He got hit by several of them, and every time he got hit, a wound appeared in his body, and his speed decreased.

"What?" Poseidon asked in shock.

"It seems that Femradiel decreased the level of your divinity," Ryan said. "That will make things a little more boring, but that is acceptable."

Poseidon used his magic and tried to drown Ryan with the ocean, but while the attack made him move away quite a bit, Ryan still could move against it… which was unexpected. Poseidon knew that Ryan gained a huge deal of power in the dragon's world, but he didn't think it was that much. Essentially, now he could fight and cause more damage than the time he defeated him in his draconic form.

"Can you attack using more ice magic? I kind of want to train my resistances right now," Ryan said. "Belphegor already helped with the skills related to pain, after all."

Poseidon clenched his teeth in anger… to think that the enemy would see him just as a tool to make himself stronger… that was so humiliating that he wished to kill Ryan in the most painful way possible while ignoring everyone else.

Instead of listening to him, Poseidon tried to attack with his fists and kicks. While the damage was piling up and his wasn't increasing all that much. It was only because Ryan only wanted to keep their speeds equal.

"This is a pain… you are causing even more trouble than Belphegor," Ryan said and then sighed.

Ryan considered giving the trident back to Poseidon. He won't be able to escape unless he defeats Femradiel, after all, and she basically could do anything to him in that world. The chances of him winning were basically null… However, Ryan decided not to do that. Instead of being nice, he will make Poseidon cooperate by using brute strength.

Since their speeds were equal now, Ryan could see his movements. When Poseidon charged in a straight line and tried to punch him with his right fist, Ryan raised his left elbow and blocked the attack. Ryan suffered quite a bit of damage, but Poseidon's expression changed quite a bit. A few bones of his hand broke since he punched the elbow, but he quickly recovered from the damage by using magic.

"I guess this isn't so bad either," Ryan said.

It wasn't his style to fight like that, but Ryan decided to attack Poseidon only when he was about to attack him, and he also only aimed at his legs and fists. At first, he got hit several times, even when he kept his guard up, but eventually, he got used to Poseidon's patterns. After all, he was a spear user, not a bare-handed fighter.

After asking Isis the best monsters to train one's elemental resistances and the locations of their dungeons, Femradiel went on another trip. She had already imagined that training with the elder gods wouldn't be easy, even without letting them use their divinity. Regardless, Femradiel wished that she could have trapped Cerberus' soul. It was hard to find a monster that wasn't a dragon but was that powerful.

While the monsters Femradiel wanted were under the enemies' control, she still found some good ones in other parts of the world. While she was doing that, she even found that it granted her a class they didn't see before.
