Chapter 83: Holy Mithra

“[Black Bolt].”

After returning to its original body for the first time in a long, long while and unleashing one of the most potent spells in its arsenal, the being that had once been known as Mithra—but had forced so many to call it Holy Mithra—was experiencing a keen sense of confusion.

Absurd. This cannot possibly be.

The insignificant creature before it had wished to rebel, so Holy Mithra had loosed its [Black Bolt] upon the insubordinate at full strength, knowing full well that doing so would place a strain on its own precious, irreplaceable body.

Yet the worthless speck—the human—was still alive. How could this be?

Holy Mithra’s [Black Bolt] was a peerless strike; once, it had even touched a being called a god. Holy Mithra took pride in the spell, for it was nigh invincible, and no defense or counterblow could mitigate its might. It was an ultimate, lethal black magic technique—a height the frail examples of humanity inhabiting this era could never even hope to attain. The moment it was unleashed, the death of anyone unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end was set in stone.

At least, that was how it should have been.

How was this human repelling it with nothing more than a twig of a blade? This was inconceivable. The man had just caught the [Black Bolt]—a streak of lightning that moved at the speed of light—with his sword and forced it aside with brute strength alone.

He was an abnormality—one that Holy Mithra’s experiences and intelligence, honed over tens of thousands of years of existence, could not recognize, much less fathom. As hard as that was to accept, the events that had just occurred proved as much.

This man was a threat of an unknown kind that Holy Mithra had never encountered. Not even twenty thousand years ago, during the era known as the age of the gods.

Holy Mithra suppressed a surge of unease and closely studied the events that were playing out before its eyes. It unleashed its [Black Bolt] several more times, and only then did it recognize a single phenomenon. Mithra did not understand well enough to venture an explanation, but the man’s shabby black sword was changing the trajectory of its spells, causing them to veer off in strange directions upon contact.

Fortunately, it had a way around that.

“[Megiddo Flame].”

Mithra summoned forth the most destructive spell in its entire arsenal: black flames of annihilation that reduced all to ash. So intense was their heat that they could evaporate even iron instantly. And though Mithra had been planning to preserve its
