Chapter 474: My inverse demon (2)

| Let's just end off the chapter with outrageous things all the time and stress the author out, stupid ability named protagonist, a trait that is stupidly called talk no jutsu, you are shit. |

Currently me and my inverse demon, Theseus, are fighting for my body. We can't use magic, so we just had to resort to a physical altercation. But our moves at the start are similar, I throw and right jab and he does the same, when our fists intercepted, it just hurt my knuckles.

It did for him too, but unlike me who pulled my hand back to shake it and blow on it cuz it hurts, he just continued to throw out attacks with no regards for his own body. I can counter and defend against everyone of his attacks, but he can do the same for me.

It was a stalemate that would never end.

"Just give up, Theseus, there's a reason why I'm a protagonist."

"Hahaha, I never give up, I'd rather die." he laughed "This is the battle to the death, winner devours the loser and forever get the body and can use it however he please."

We then charge at each other and landed some hits on each other, him unlike me was more rash, but his moves isn't totally without intention, it's rash but it's all calculated too. We exchanged a lot of blows till we had to wrestle each other.

Despite all the landed blows, no blood came out, the pain was there, but no sign of blood. This is a battle of will.

Perseus' mana was changing colors, but instead of all of it turning into black, there were 2 spots of white that remained stagnant, one at the brain and the other at the heart.

He was also giggling and muttering in his sleep.

"Hehehe...protagonist..." Perseus muttered "Give up...bitch...I'll strangle ya..."

"For a son of sleep god, he sure is sleeping longer than we expected, it's 30 minutes." Hera commented

"Then excuse me if I'm rude, why are all the Olympian watching this other than attending to your duties?" Elektra asked "With the exception for Ares who have left for Valhalla."

"We have nothing better to do." Poseidon shrugged "Besides, it's kind of funny to hear him talk in his sleep."

"Yeah, each of us Olympians are weirdos, funnily enough, that was one of our requirements to be one of us since we don't want to corrupt an innocent soul, so he easily qualified for the position whether he likes it or not." Hermes chimed in

Then something happened, there were traces of something around Perseus' neck, as if he had someone strangling him, Elektra was worried and approached the dome, but just a single touch caused her to immediately sleep on the spot.

Apollo acted quickly and pulled her back and heal her which caused her to wake up, but they then hear Perseus struggling to breathe.

Dabria arrived on the scene after getting the news, and she was stopped by the others from approaching close as the black dome got bigger.

1st person view

Theseus managed to get me in a chokehold and squeeze the air out of me. I had a few broken teeth and my face was entirely bloodied and my hair was sticky thanks to my own blood.

"Surrender!" he ordered as he was also struggling to hold me "Tap 3...times and I'll let you live in this dark...bloody shit world...instead of being...devoured."

"Ne...ver" I replied as I managed to get one of my hand at a certain area and squeeze it with all my might.

He screamed out in pain as I managed to get out of his chokehold. He used his hands to hold his groin and I got up to kick him in the gut and in the face a lot of times.

He released his hand to cover his face and I then stepped on his gut, causing him to cough out and spread out a bit, I then kicked him in his groin again and this time I heard a pop, that gotta hurt as I beat him up mercilessly.

"You...win." he spitted out "I...giv-"

The more I beat him up, the lesser morale he has, and the lower his will to become the owner of my body remained, and this cursed him to get injured. i don't care what he says, but I continue to beat him up.

He kept smiling through the beating until I stopped.

"Heh, you...are more...like me than you realize." he then cough out blood "Your anger...the ones...you suppressed, it's me...I am your...anger...Nova's death...feeling of hopelessness and helplessness...we are all of it...devour me, or else I will come back..."

I then started to bite him starting from arm and ripping out his flesh and I continued to...

"Good." he chuckled "Leave...nothing behind...you shit vampire."

*****

I woke up with several weird creatures gathering around me that I've never seen around Olympus, I see Elektra and Dabria approaching me but I hold up a hand for them to stop as I started to vomit on the spot.

The feeling of disgust was overwhelming me, but I had no choice, as the fight went on, me and Theseus knew it, only one of us could remain, and the other has to be devoured, he lied for me to give up which I never did.

I didn't eat a lot earlier in the day, so I was mostly left gagging and a disgusting sour taste in my mouth. I used magic to clean up the scene but I can tell that my complexion wasn't good.

"I would have kissed you to congratulate you, but that would be really disgusting." Dabria said "What the hell happened? No reincarnates would sleep for 2 hours just to breakthrough into a black stage of magic, even if you are a son of a sleeping god or a descendant of a magic goddess."

"I ate a gorger and I need to wash my mouth, so please guide me to the nearest bathroom. Don't ask the details, I would never elaborate."
