Chapter 588 A complete scoundrel!
Chapter 588 A complete scoundrel!
Upon seeing William, Archangel Amenadiel instinctively took a couple of steps back.
He had just attempted to reclaim the Seven Treasures Staff, only to find himself triggering some sort of prohibition.
His most powerful artifact was now bound by restrictions placed by another, which was a terrifying situation.
"Mr. Johnson, your disciple is too arrogant. I really couldn't help myself and just wanted to teach him a lesson!" Archangel Amenadiel truly did not want to confront William. After all, he couldn't win against him, and for some reason, this person seemed to be unaffected by the Cosmic Entity's rules.
William raised an eyebrow and asked, "Can't my disciple be arrogant?"
Archangel Amenadiel was suddenly at a loss for words.
This... this person is unreasonable!
William's gaze fell on the Seven Treasures Staff in Archangel Amenadiel's hand, asking, "You're stealing from my disciple? And bullying him, making you even more shameless?"
"This... this was originally mine..." Archangel Amenadiel was on the verge of tears.
What kind of reasoning was this?
William stated, "But this object has recognized me as its new master, which makes it mine. I've given it to my disciple Hades, so it's his!"
The gods in the distance, upon hearing William's logic, really exclaimed in admiration at its brilliance.
They remembered how long ago, Archangel Amenadiel used to roam around with the Seven Treasures Staff, challenging others and plundering their artifacts. Wasn't it the same?
William had just echoed the very words Archangel Amenadiel used to love saying, leaving him even more at a loss for words.
"Hand it over!" William straightforwardly extended his hand.
Archangel Amenadiel, no matter how reluctant, had no choice but to dutifully return the Seven Treasures Staff to William.
William then handed the Seven Treasures Staff to Hades.
Hades grinned and said, "Thanks, Master!"
William nodded slightly, then extended his hand towards Archangel Amenadiel again, "Anything else?"
Archangel Amenadiel was taken aback, "That's all I took!"
William said, "Hand over all your artifacts! Don't make me act and spare you the embarrassment in front of all these people!"
"You... don't push me too far!" Archangel Amenadiel was really at his limit, being asked to surrender all his artifacts in front of so many people?
Was this William even more shameless than Hades?
He was a high-ranking god-king!
Do you know what a high-ranking god-king is?
The strongest existence below the Cosmic Entity!
To say invincible might be...
A bit of an exaggeration.
But at least he shouldn't be insulted like this!
"If you dare, kill me! Slaying a high-ranking god-king, the Cosmic Entity will naturally punish you!" Archangel Amenadiel stiffened his neck and said, "You might not know, but the soul of a high-ranking god-king is immortal! Even if you kill me today, I will be reborn tomorrow!"
"Hmm? Is that so?" William suddenly became interested, "Then I must try!"
Archangel Amenadiel abruptly stepped back, the Spear of Apocalypse appearing in his hand, radiating divine light with thousands of thunderbolts falling.
He thrust the Spear of Apocalypse fiercely towards William.
Taking advantage of the moment before William drew his sword, Archangel Amenadiel planned to use all his strength in a desperate attempt.
If he could severely injure William the Obliterator, it would be worth it!
He could be revived, just once, but severely injuring William the Obliterator once would be enough!
William's gaze sharpened, and as thousands of thunderbolts vanished into the void, just as the Spear of Apocalypse was about to pierce his throat, he cleanly caught the Spear of Apocalypse, snatching it from Archangel Amenadiel's hand.
William wiped away all connections between the Spear of Apocalypse and Archangel Amenadiel.
Archangel Amenadiel was shocked, as William the Obliterator seemed to become even more terrifying.
Instantly severing his connection with the Spear of Apocalypse and taking it away so effortlessly?
The next moment, William's palm landed on Archangel Amenadiel's chest!
What appeared to be an ordinary palm strike turned Archangel Amenadiel directly into dust, with the power of five holy halos bursting out and falling into William's hand.
Archangel Amenadiel was obliterated, soul and body!
Just one palm strike!
William handed the Spear of Apocalypse to Hades, saying, "I might have used a bit too much force. Amenadiel's other artifacts are gone, but then again, there wasn't much of value on him."
The scene fell into dead silence!
Hades, with a stunned expression, took the Spear of Apocalypse and dumbly asked, "Master... is Archangel Amenadiel dead?"
William frowned, "He should be considered dead!" After saying this, he toyed with the power of the holy halos in his hand.
He had been researching this stuff lately and, after thinking for a moment, infused a bit of his own power into it before casually tossing it.
The power of the five holy halos passed through space, scattering to unknown locations.
"This power of the five holy halos, consider it a treasure hunt. Whoever finds them, they belong to!" William laughed, then turned to pat Hades on the shoulder, saying, "Hades, try not to be too arrogant in the future. It's better to keep a low profile."
Hades could tell that his master wasn't blaming him but still hung his head, saying, "I will heed your command!"
William's gaze swept over the surrounding deities and said, "I have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. Have fun."
With that, he vanished.
Hades, holding the Seven Treasures Staff in his left hand and the Spear of Apocalypse in his right, wore an excited smile on his face.
This was his master!
Such treatment was simply too good!
He had speculated that his master was strong enough to defeat Amenadiel, but not necessarily kill him.
Yet, with just a palm strike, he obliterated a high-ranking god-
king.
With such a master, who would dare trouble him in the future?
Zeus glanced at Poseidon and said, "It seems that in the end, forceful seizure is necessary."
Poseidon, with a joyful expression, said, "That guy Amenadiel, too ignorant for his own good, got what he deserved!"
Zeus mused, "With Amenadiel gone, it seems God might..."
The surrounding deities were even more shocked at this turn of events.
In their previous encounters with William the Obliterator, the worst they got was a beating. William the Obliterator never went for the kill, and it was mostly after a narrow victory that he gave them a thrashing...
It was somewhat in jest.
Now, it seemed that William the Obliterator was outrageously strong.
A high-ranking god-king obliterated with a single palm strike?
If it really came down to a fight, would they stand a chance?
"Let's hope that what happened today doesn't get spread around!" After saying this, Poseidon directly left.
As for Hades, he clearly became a person of interest among the gods.
Fortunately, the Olympian gods usually had a decent relationship, and Hades also remembered William's final advice to him about keeping a low profile.
"Actually, there's no need for all this. My master is very easy-
going, and I'm straightforward and kind. I wouldn't deliberately set you up. That Archangel Amenadiel brought it upon himself, don't you think?" Hades knew what these fellows were thinking.
If their relationship with him was bad, and they ended up like Archangel Amenadiel, to whom could they complain?
As for Hades's comments about his master being easy-going and himself being straightforward and kind, the gods just nodded along, knowing better than to take it seriously.
If William the Obliterator's temper is considered good, then wouldn't Poseidon be a saint?
As for Hades... a complete scoundrel!
