{System notification} God of War, Ares, hath been vanquished
{+one million exp points}

"What the heck! I just defeated a god and I got only a million exp? Cronus, you stingy ancient relic! I’ll get you for this!" Rex yelled.
"Verily, thou hast bested but the god of mere skirmishes, Ares. Prithee, speak not of billions in reward 'til thou doth lay low Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades. Until then, relish thy modest crumbs, mortal!"
"Talk normally!" Rex screamed
You’ve merely vanquished the god of brawls, Ares. When you manage to take down Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades, then we can talk about real rewards. Until then, enjoy your pocket change!"

"Okay, now I even hate it when you speak normally!" Rex facepalmed

 Years after the titans were defeated at the hands of the Olympians, humanity started to awaken abilities that made them accomplish feats that would have been only possible in Superhero movies. Yet "evil must accompany good," as monsters also began to emerge on Earth.

Cronus' system: Against the gods

The Shades howled, their cries like the wails of countless grieving wolves, a sound that crawled into the marrow of the soul.

It was not merely a sound but an emotion, a lamentation of agony and longing, echoing with the anguish they carried in life and the torment binding them in death.

Rex cracked his knuckles, the sharp pop cutting through the eerie cries like a defiant battle cry. Though he felt a pang of sympathy for their plight, he couldn't let himself wallow.

Compassion had no place in the heat of a fight. Besides, he knew his task was their salvation.

"Simulations or not, you guys are messed up," Rex muttered, rubbing his lips with a growing smirk. "Guess it's my job to set you free... and rack up some XP while I'm at it." His voice rose, brimming with his trademark cocky flair. "Cronus! Don't let me turn into a softie, yeah?"
