No matter what your request may be, the Amazons will not show politeness to the invaders, especially men. They won't tolerate those who dare to provoke their queen and refuse to be captured by them.
Hippolyta's orders are unnecessary as the surrounding Amazons have already launched an attack on Stephen.
The Amazons never fear a fight.
A rain of sharp and deadly arrows poured in from all directions, aimed straight at Stephen. Seeing this, Stephen quickly bent backward, supporting his body with his left hand and turning sideways, while his right hand grabbed a few arrow feathers in the air.
Psst, Psst, Psst.
Several Amazons who rushed towards him with long spears and short swords now lay on the ground.
With a single strike, Stephen swiftly reached them, using his fists like a skilled tiger. Catch. Hit. Throw.
Even though these Amazons are brave and strong, they are no match for Stephen, who possesses numerous fighting abilities and experience. He effortlessly defeats them.
Even if he doesn't combine all his powers, there is no one here who can stand against him. In an instant, those Amazon fighters are severely beaten down. Even Hippolyta, who angrily charges at him, drawing her sword, is knocked down by him.
Stephen pulls her hands behind her back and grabs her with one hand. He steps on her back and picks up her sword, pressing it against her neck.
"This is for not letting me ride a horse. Now I can only ride this."
"But, in all seriousness, don't blame me. Blame the people who put me here. I warned them not to regret this decision. So, they are the ones who brought pain to Paradise Island and all of you."
"You will pay the price, I promise." Hippolyta struggles and grits her teeth, trying to move her body.
"Who will make me pay the price? You? Or Diana the God Killer? Or the old pervert Zeus? The god of war, Ares, can't even keep Paradise Island intact." Stephen says with a smile.
"You... how do you know all this?"
Hippolyta's face suddenly changes. Whoever holds the title of God Killer possesses the ability to kill gods, which is actually the treasure used by Paradise Island residents to fight against the God of War, Ares.
Everyone thought that the God Killer was a sword, but only Hippolyta knew that the so-called God Killer was not a sword at all, but her own daughter, Diana.
Only a god can kill a god.
This man is powerful and knows the secrets of the God Killer so well. He speaks as if he is familiar with Zeus and Ares, showing no respect for them.
Who is he?
"Queen."
"Mother."
Two shocking screams are heard in the distance, and two figures gallop on horseback. One of them is the general of Paradise Island, Hippolyta's sister, Antiope. Seeing all the warriors and the queen lying on the sand, her anger is directed towards Stephen even before she reaches them.
The other person is wearing golden strapless armor, a skirt that reaches her thighs, with braided hair and heroic facial features. Currently, her expression is a mix of worry and anger. This person is the God Killer that Stephen mentioned earlier, Wonder Woman Diana, one of the three pillars of the Justice League.
"The fun is about to begin."
Stephen casually swings his sword, splitting the arrow shot by Antiope into two. The arrowheads pass by him as they are cut in half. A smile forms at the corner of his mouth, and he jumps forward suddenly.
In midair, Stephen approaches Antiope, who is riding a horse, and swings his sword down, causing her to fall off. After landing, he raises his fist and gestures towards Diana, who is slower than Antiope in the moment.
"Boom!"
The fist hits the horse's head.
Unable to withstand the punch's force, the horse's head explodes instantly, and Diana is thrown off its back.
Her tall and slender body slides across the sandy beach until it stops near Hippolyta.
"Mother, are you okay? Who is this person? Did Ares send him?" Diana helps her mother up and asks eagerly.
"I have no idea."
Hippolyta shakes her head and looks up. She sees Antiope rushing towards Stephen, shooting arrows while on the move.
Amazonian archery focuses more on strength than the League of Assassins' style. Although it is highly accurate, it is not enough to defeat him. Stephen effortlessly cuts and deflects Antiope's angry arrows with his sword. When she comes close, he swings his sword at her.
Psst!
Stephen's sword cuts through only the hair next to the longbow, but he kicks her with his leg, sending her crashing to the ground.
Antiope's chest armor has a dent in the middle, and she falls in response.
"Antiope."
Diana watches Antiope, who has been her combat instructor since childhood, fall to the ground. Unable to stand still, she rushes towards Stephen with a short battle cry.
"Don't go." Hippolyta wants to stop her, but she can only watch Diana leap high in the air, descending upon Stephen.
"Boom!"
The impact creates a sunken area on the beach.
Diana looks up at Stephen, who has evaded her blows and moved away. But soon, a fist surrounded by golden light appears suddenly before her eyes.
"Bang."
Diana feels her whole body ache, and she is thrown out instantly. She struggles to get up but eventually collapses.
It hurts! Feeling dizzy!
Diana has never experienced anything like this before. She has been beaten to the point where she can't stand up.
The golden light surrounds Stephen, creating a dazzling display. The powerful divine energy floods his body, giving him an indescribable sense of pleasure and excitement.
He has copied Diana's abilities.
As a demigod, Diana was blessed by the gods of Olympus at birth, strengthening all aspects of her abilities, and she possessed a certain divine power.
Although the old gods like Zeus have withdrawn from godhood one after another, being replaced by new gods like Darkseid, Diana, as a demigod, still possesses incredibly powerful divine power.
Unfortunately, Diana hasn't discovered her true identity yet, and she hasn't fully unleashed her powerful strength.
The golden divine power is surrounded by azure blue electric light, resembling thunder. The two completely different rays of light converge and alternate, giving the illusion that Stephen looks like a god descending upon Earth.
"Ares..."
Hippolyta stares blankly at Stephen and unconsciously utters a name.
What the What? Why did she call him Ares? Is Stephen the past Ares?
Now Stephen has the divine power, what will he do with it, next?
a. Teach Diana how to unlock her own divinity.
b. Play as a god.
c. Become a true god.
d. Fun stuff!!! Obviously!
