[Chapter Size: 1700 Words.]
Third Person POV
Orario.

"Let's go! We managed to make that monster leave!" Dix said while holding his arm with a robe. He had lost his arm to Asterius in the fight against the Minotaur and followed the twins with the gods into the dungeon, trying to escape.
"That wasn't cool..."
"I didn't think it was cool either..."
The two elves were depressed. After all, few people survived, and in that state, very few people survived.
"Damn it, they will pay for all this! I swear!" The god Thanatos said angrily as the other gods followed the path.
But something changed, and some of them, being of high levels, felt the change, "Hm?! What is this!? I feel a chill coming from this corridor!" Valletta exclaimed, having only one eye left after the fight with Asterius.
"I also feel something very bad coming this way!" Vena Dis exclaimed in fear.
"What is this..." Dina Dis murmured, feeling death approaching.
"Another xenos?" Dix frowned, as something began to emerge from the darkness at high speed, a quadruped creature with a bone head. It was none other than the Juggernaut, following its path to its target.
"What is that thing?!" Valletta exclaimed, even more frightened than before. But before she could react, she was cut in half by the Juggernaut's claws, which didn't think twice about killing someone since it had been summoned by its mother.
The group was paralyzed by that thing, which was much worse than the Minotaur, while the twins, who were preparing for the fight, were crushed the next moment, dying there as blood spread everywhere.
"Run!" Dix shouted, but then had his head quickly removed, dying instantly. He had cheated death twice that day, but the third time, his luck changed.
"Valletta?! What is that!!" Thanatos exclaimed in fear, seeing his strongest daughter die like that without having time to react. The monster turned to him, not caring if he was a god, crushing him the next moment. Being a god, a light emerged as he died.
The light quickly passed through all the layers of earth above him and exploded from the ground of Orario, going to the sky.
"What?! That light is from the death of a god!" Shakti exclaimed, stunned.
Finn frowned at that as well, with the others turning their attention from Lucius in the air back to the light heading to Tenkai.
"It comes from Knossos, there were four gods there, what is happening...?" Lucius was confused. After all, the only one who could kill a god at that moment was Asterius, and he was fighting some members of the Loki Familia.
Meanwhile, it didn't take long for them to see a second light. After all, Ikelos kneeled on the ground in front of the creature when he saw his son and comrade die, while the other gods looked scared and ran back to the beginning of the path. None of them wanted to return to Tenkai, much less die that way, like a kicked dog, having their bodies torn apart like that.
"..." Ikelos was already a very passive god, so he only raised an eyebrow without protesting as the Juggernaut exploded his body on the ground, blood everywhere, and a light exploding from there, causing him to die as well.
Orario saw a second light while several gods looked at it, stunned. "What is happening there?!" That question made all the gods frown. One god was already quite unusual, but now two in a row?
In the tower of Orario, the goddess of the forge watched it through her window.
"Hepheastus-sama?" Tsubaki Collbrande looked at it, stunned, as she saw the sky of Orario light up a second time.
"What is happening today... which gods were killed...?" she wondered, not knowing what to think about it, something she had never seen before—two gods being killed in succession since she came to this world.
At the top of the tower, a false Freya looked at it with a frown, while the real one, in front of the restaurant, with Mama Mia by her side, watched with a confused face. There were monster roars, sounds of people screaming in fear, rumors of a monster invasion while people ran in the opposite direction, shouting these things. Now gods were dying on that side.
Bell kept running with the others behind the Vouivre as she headed towards the old pleasure district, which was partially closed after the fall of the Ishtar Familia.
Adventurers ran to try to kill the Vouivre and the Xenos accompanying her, while they fought in the streets of Orario with citizens panicking.
Back to Lucius, he took his eyes off the second light exploding from the ground and turned his attention back to his opponents.
"Something is happening, and I don't have a very positive feeling about it, but I need to hurry and help my friends. So let's start our fight." Lucius announced as he turned his attention to the four. He had to finish this before turning his attention to the Xenos and what was happening underground at that moment.
This made Finn look at him seriously along with the two other executives of his familia, while Riveria had a more serious look, as if this fight was inevitable. Shakti seemed to be in a dilemma—monsters here on the surface, and now she was realizing that these were Xenos, matching the description she knew. The Ganesha Familia had never encountered them, but they were warned by the guild of their existence. Since Ouranos had not yet informed Ganesha about Lucius's contact with them, she thought they were just common monsters and was furious with Lucius before noticing this detail.
However, this night was getting worse every moment. Not only was there a fight with Lucius, and being wounded, now they had created an inevitable fight while gods were dying somewhere in the slums one after the other.
Lucius wasted no time and created numerous fireballs, launching magic across the area. The rooftops exploded the next moment, making everyone move as he used it to appear next to Finn, who, with his experienced level 6 instincts, tried to attack Lucius, piercing him with his spear. Lucius disappeared and reappeared right behind him. Lucius took advantage of Finn's momentary surprise to cast a lightning spell that hit him directly, making the leader of the Loki Familia retreat with a pained expression.
"That teleportation ability is really hard to deal with..." Finn murmured as he felt the pain of receiving Lucius's attack.
"I'm not done yet." Lucius said while casting a Chrono Chaos towards Finn.
Riveria, seeing her comrade wounded, quickly conjured a magical barrier around Finn, which exploded with Lucius's attack but remained firm after the explosion, protecting them from Lucius's attacks while she made a quick chant. "We cannot underestimate him," she said, her voice firm despite the growing tension of dealing with Lucius as an enemy.
Lucius was quick when he felt a heavy shadow appear above him, and Gareth attacked. He didn't use teleportation, wanting to test his current status with the dwarf while maintaining a status spell.
His sword and the hammer clashed together while Lucius quickly sank into the ground where he had attacked Finn before, soon feeling himself being pushed back as he entered the rooftop.
BOOM!!! His body exploded with him, and he reappeared outside the house he had entered while floating in the air, blood streaming down his forehead at that moment.
"That really hurt..." He couldn't help but smile as a green aura surrounded him, healing all his wounds.
"Your healing magic... it's even better..." Finn quickly noticed, frowning. "You leveled up, didn't you?" he asked as Riveria's shield disappeared.
"Yes, I'm level 4. A level 4 fighting against three level 6s and a level 5." Lucius said mockingly.
Shakti now approached them, staring at Lucius. "Finn, Riveria, and Gareth, we need to coordinate our attacks," she shouted. "If we keep scattered, he will defeat us one by one."
Lucius sighed and prepared for battle again. He would still have a long fight with these people until he could see what was happening after helping the Xenos get out of this situation.
Meanwhile, the battle in the streets of Orario continued to heat up with the Hestia Familia and the Xenos against the adventurers of Orario as soon as they saw them protecting that beast running through the streets.
"What are you doing? Protecting a monster!" they shouted, clashing their swords.
Ryuu and Aisha were handling them easily, while Daphne, Welf, and Mikoto were having a tough fight. Haruhime, Cassandra, and Lili stayed as support while Lili faced them with spears.
"How are we going to stop her?" Bell asked Lyd as they entered the destroyed area of the pleasure district, still chasing the Vouivre.
"We're going to have to bring her down and calm her that way!" Gros said.
"Stop, please!" Ray landed in front of the Vouivre, but she didn't stop.
"This is bad..." Bell felt the change in the atmosphere. "We have to hurry," he said to his new companions. "Something terrible is happening."
They quickly entered a more open area while the Vouivre was cornered, stopping and backing away as many Xenos and other Hestia Familia adventurers arrived.
The Vouivre growled at them, not distinguishing any of them as allies or enemies, only seeing enemies while remaining scared. But at that moment, a shadow covered the moon in the sky and quickly descended upon the creature, and the next moment, everyone saw it being crushed by a giant fist.
"..." Everyone was stunned as the fist was lifted with the Vouivre lying unconscious in the hole, while a colossus, Erebus transformed into his titan form, looked satisfied.
"Hey, didn't you overdo it?!" Lyd shouted, surprised like the other Xenos, after all, Erebus was a very gentle Xenos.
"I heard we had to calm her down, so I did that." He spoke in a still gentle tone, which did not match his actions or his size.
