An Interruption

"I..."

As Hades was about to vote a warning suddenly went off.

Cronos looked startled

"Everyone...I just got a message."

"A level 7 disaster has appeared in the city."

The mood in the room got serious.

Cratos shouted.

"What!?"

He was in disbelief.

Jin was thinking up a plan.

'A level 7 disaster can destroy a country by itself and if left alone it might grow stronger! This is bad...'

"Everyone, I have a suggestion."

Everyone looked at Jin.

Jin explained his plan to them.

"Aphrodite, You'll give buffs to Hermes and he'll take the disaster to a secluded area, Cronos, Poseidon, Hades, Ares and Cratos will wait there, meanwhile I'll hold off the swarms brought by the disaster, that's all, there's no time to hesitate."

After the meeting dismissed they all went outside.

A huge humanoid monster with tentacle like arms roamed the city with each step bringing destruction.

The monster let out a screech that echoed throughout the city.

"AH!!!"

The screams of civilians filled the area.

"Everyone!! Follow me to the bunker!!"

Soldiers were dispatched to protect the civilians.

Amidst the chaos Jin got a mission from the system.

"Everyone!! Get ready!"

He shouted.

The Rankers then proceeded to their positions.

"Hermes just so you know I'm only helping you for the safety of everyone."

Aphrodite said coldly.

"I don't care as long as we eliminate this disaster now so I can challenge Null again."

[Mission: Eliminate- Monsters 0/863

Disaster 0/1]

"System can you show me the rewards?"

[No, The rewards will vary according to your performance.]

"That's fine I guess."

Swarms of different monsters were approaching Jin.

Jin summoned the silver key.

"I'd like to upgrade Metal Body."

{Upgrade Successful, Metal Body>Metal Manipulation, The user can manipulate up to 500 kg and 200 meters.}

"Good enough."

Jin lifted the metals around him from the rubbles., he changed their shape to that of spikes.

The swarm of monsters were only a few meters away from Jin.

"Die."

The spikes flew towards the monsters at incredible speed.

[5/863]

[16/863]

[32/863]

[69/863]

[82/863]

A pile of bodies Lied in front of Jin.

Jin gathered the last bits of metal left in his area.

"I should be able to make myself a weapon with this amount."

The metals flew towards Jin's hands as he created a sword.

Jin then got back the metal spikes he used before.

"I should recycle these shouldn't I?"

He said as he laughed hysterically.

Meanwhile the raid for the disaster was ongoing.

"Everyone! Hermes is currently taking the disaster to your location, be on high alert!"

Aphrodite updated the others.

A few seconds after Aphrodite said that Hermes appeared 100 km away from the city with the disaster.

"Hermes get out of the way I'm gonna stop time around it!"

The Rankers then charged their most powerful abilities.

Hades created a Lance with swirling fire around it that seemed to bring the fires of hell itself.

Hell Fire Lance

Poseidon summoned a huge sword as big as the disaster itself from the clouds.

Heavenly Punishment

Cratos charged his fist with an immense amount of mana and striked down on the disaster.

Ares charged his spear with his unique mana as fire aura covered it.

Spear of Destruction

A cloud of dust covered the entire area they were in.

"Is it dead?"

Cronos asked as he walked through the dust cloud.

Suddenly the disaster let out a screech that blew the dust away.

"SCREE!!"

"Tch! Everyone get out of the way!"

Cronos prepared an attack.

"Time Stop."

'I have to finish this fast or the consequences of this skill will be dire.'

"Decay!"

'Shit I'm running out of energy, I need to finish this now!'

Cronos used every last bit of his energy before he passed out.

Before the disaster could fully decay Cronos passed out and his time stop ability was deactivated.

"Hermes! Take Cronos and go!"

Cratos shouted.

'At least we were able to take all of its limbs!'

Then the disaster started regenerating itself.

"NO! This is bad!"

Cratos jumped towards the disaster and punched it with all his power.

Cratos blew a hole in the center of its body.

"Cratos! Get out of there!"

Hades shouted.

'This is the first time in a while that I've had fun!'

Ares smiled.

Meteor.

The ground shook as it was felt all over the world.

"Poseidon! Once the Meteor gets close enough create a barrier to contain its power!"

"I know!"

Poseidon created a barrier of compressed water.

"Don't just take all the fun!"

Ares used up all his mana and conjured a huge spear and threw it towards the disaster.

The disaster's entire body was scorched yet it was still alive.

"Tch!"

Ares passed out from his excessive use of mana

"That was high unnecessary!"

----

Meanwhile at Jin's side.

"Are they not finished yet?"

[396/863]

Suddenly Jin felt the ground shake.

'Don't tell me!?'

He looked at the sky and saw the meteor Hades summoned.

"Did something happen?! I didn't expect them to use that last resort so soon, I guess the fight's over now I should hurry and finish this."

"Come at me!"

Jin shouted as the monsters rushed towards him.

Jin shot his metal spikes towards the swarm as he dashed with his sword towards it.

Their bodies fell to the ground.

'I'm tired.'

Jin said as he took a deep breath.

He compressed the metal spikes and his sword to make a huge blade.

"It's done, DIE!"

He slashed the blade horizontally as the bodies of the monsters were cut in half.

[396/863]>[524/863]

"Tch, there's still so many of them left."

'Should I gamble and use 'That'? I have no other choice.'

"System, take out the mystery box."

A black box appeared in front of Jin.

"Open."

Suddenly a flash of light covered the area and blinded Jin.

"AH!!"

After a few seconds the light disappeared.

As Jin opened his eyes a diamond key appeared in front of him.

"What is this..."

[A diamond key! You're very lucky it's a key that allows you to gain one of your random Stat or Ability from the past.]

"The thing I need most right now are..."

"Stats."

{Status recovered, your past Stamina has been recovered.}

"It also replenished my stamina! this fight is over!"

Jin swung his blade once more.

"AH!!!"

[612/863]

"Again!!"

[673/863]

"Again!!!"

[758/863]

"Once more!!!"

Jin's blood sprayed the area.

[843/863]

"I'm out of energy..."

Jin fell on his knees.

And even though his body has lost consciousness his willpower never wavered and forced his body up. 

"No! Not yet!!"

He shouted as he forced himself to stand up.

"Haa."

He disassembled the blade to create the spikes again.

Die.

He said as the spikes flew towards the remaining monsters.

[862/863]

...

[863/863]

[Congratulations you have finished the mission as well as surpassed your limits you have been given extra rewards...]

After hearing the message Jin closed his eyes.

'It's over.'

----

"AHH!!! The meteor is about to make impact!!"

"BOOM!"

As the meteor hit the disaster a powerful shockwave flew past them and the space inside the barrier was scorched on fire to the point that the barrier completely evaporated.

After the barrier disappeared the body of the disaster was turned to dust.

'Is it finally over?'

they asked themselves.

"I'm completely out of mana."

Hades fell to the ground.

And meanwhile Hermes met up with Aphrodite and dropped off Cronos

"Aphrodite I have no time to explain, heal him, now!"

"I know! Don't pressure me!"

"Just focus on him."

Hermes then went back.

"Is it finally done?"

He asked.

Poseidon said

"Yes, We did it...you should go check up on Null."

"That guy's fine I went to him before coming here..."

"I can tell your lying, even if you hate him we still can't afford to lose him."

Poseidon continued to lecture Hermes.

"I get it! Just cause I'm the youngest out of the Rankers doesn't mean that I need to be lectured every time!"

"Also I bet that guy hasn't even cleared the monsters yet!"

Hermes then left to go to Jin.

'It's been so long since we had a raid like this.'

Cratos reminisced.

To Be Continued.
