I.. Am God?

Chapter 126 Elements Trying To Curry Favor, General Takovich



"But I am not!" He despaired. He then suddenly heard  the old man say, "Remember, your body is already a god even without your godcraft and authority. You are closer to the laws and will not be just in harmony with the surroundings. Instead, they must obey and worship you. Just remember that you are a god and become one even without your powers."

Trying so, Matthias breathed in and utilized his body and knowledge of a god. Suddenly, from all around him, small wisps of every element appeared, which shocked Princess Raya, "Holy God of Fate! This is too monstrous."

The others that were also walking with them gawked at the sight. What shocked Princess Raya the most was seeing the movements of the elements around him, it was as if they were fawning at him?

"The elements that were said to be indifferent.." she muttered, "..are trying to curry favor?"

"What?" The others exclaimed. "Are you sure about that, Princess?" General Tarsus muttered with shock.

"Yes! It's as if the elements were tamed by him!" She responded.

Hearing her, they gawked even more. Are the elements still the same elements that they know?

While the others were gawking, Matthias suddenly heard something from far away. Matthias stopped with what he's doing and narrowed his eyes. He expanded his senses towards the area where he heard the noise.

"Argh!!"

Matthias felt that something was wrong and looked at Tarsus, "General Tarsus, are we near your army camp?" He asked.

"Hmm?" General Tarsus looked at their surroundings and nodded, "Yes, I guess so. How did you know?"

"I heard a scream from over there. And expanding my vision, I saw that there is a battle going on. Shit!" Matthias answered urgently and abruptly ran towards the direction.

"What?!" They all paled and ran as well. As they went nearer, they saw smoke rising from the direction they were going.

Inside the army camp, it was chaos. The rebels have found their camp and attacked them. Currently, they have been going against the enemy's assault for four hours.

Thousands of rebel soldiers assaulted the five hundred men of the camp. With the defensive position of the camp, they possess an advantage, but the enemy's number is still monstrous.

"General Tatec, on your left!"

"On it!" The general of the camp dodged an attack from his left and then jumped sideways. He rushed over to the assailant and sliced its head. When the attacker was killed, the Spirit turned into small specs of light and vanished into the air.

"Go! Fight for the Princedom and your life!" The leading Spirit shouted with fervor.

While they were fighting, the big energy tent inside the camp was suddenly hit by a strong force, which shocked the soldiers.

The leading Spirit looked at the debris with shock and horror, "The only person who could do that will be him. Did he betray the Princedom as well?" He agonized.

"I didn't betray the Princedom, Tatec. I wasn't even loyal to it in the first place! HAHAHAHA!" From the debris, an arrogant voice sounded.

"General Takovich!" The Spirit behind the debris slowly showed itself. It was huge, unlike any Spirit. His size is double that of his race. A huge light hammer leaned on his broad shoulders.

"Stop this nonsense, Takovich!" General Tatec shouted with anger.

"Hmm. The Princess is not here." Not even minding Tatec, Takovich looked around and clicked his tongue. "I guess I'll just slaughter all of you." Takovich slammed down his hammer and ran towards them.

Although terrified, with his dignity as a General, Tatec angled his sword and prepared for a hard fight. Takovich jumped in the air and raised his hammer high.

Out of the blue, a sword suddenly flew from the depths of the forest and shot straight towards the hammer, knocking it away.

"!?!" Because of the sword, Takovich lost control of the hammer's weight and shot back with it. He smashed down on the ground, causing smoke and debris to fly up the air. Takovich stood up from the rubbles angrily and glared at where the attack came from.

The sword that was shot out and was laying down the ground then floated and shot back to the forest.

There, it became visible to the Spirits of the camp who the one who sent that attack is as General Tarsus raised his hand and caught the sword.

"Tarsus!" Takovich yelled with absolute wrath.

"Takovich, you traitor. No wonder Prince Ramun hated you so much." General Tarsus snorted coldly. Princess Raya, Matthias, and the others also arrived.

"How the hell did he arrive first when I was the first to run?" Matthias thought.

"What are you all waiting for? Do they need to kill some more for us to move?" Matthias complained with irritation and dashed towards the enemies. Princess Raya and the others also attacked the enemies.

Matthias waved his right hand while running and conjured the laws of nature. Knowing that anything physical wouldn't hurt the light beings, Matthias merged all the elements and elongated it; He made an element sword.

He then jumped high and slashed down. A huge tempest of elemental slash tore the ground with its power. There are a lot of advantages if one uses the laws instead of their power. One of them was if the user is skilled enough, they could just use the power of the surroundings to fuel the attack, so the user doesn't need to use his or her personal energy!

Boom! A huge slash mark was left down the ground where the elemental attack landed. Hundreds of rebel Spirits died with just that attack.

When Matthias landed, he then slammed his palms down. Huge vines suddenly grew from the land and restricted the enemy Spirits in their positions.

Before everything, Matthias already asked Old Man Sanyi about recognizing every spirit as they really do look the same.

"Matthias, just like other beings, there will always be a difference between Spirits. Their characteristic is light, so look at the energy frequency of their light. That would be how you identify them."

Once Matthias discovered that, he utilized it every time when talking to the Spirits. Now, he could analyze their frequencies really well, and with the enemies, he noticed that they have a slower frequency than that of the allied spirits. Therefore, Matthias instantly knew who the enemies were.

With the law of healing, he branched to the allied Spirits and transferred them energy. With the new energy that they have, the soldiers got braver and started to strike back.

Princess Raya and the others also joined the fight. Princess Raya did a pushing motion with her hand. The earth raised up and mowed down the enemies. General Tuwa unsheathed a sword of light and started slashing the soldiers.

General Tatec joined the fight by killing the enemy army with his men.

General Tarsus walked calmly to General Takovich's position with his sword just slashing at any enemy that closed in.

The other soldiers and citizens that were also with them in the journey charged and fought in the battlefield.

Seeing the situation, General Takovich became angered, "Bastards!" He charged furiously with his hammer angled to mow down anyone it hits.

Seeing that Takovich will be moving, Tarsus sneered and charged towards him too. Then, a fierce fight began.

Takovich swung his hammer at Tarsus while the latter avoided the hammer by an inch. Tarsus then spun given that he nearly fell off, so by spinning, he regained his balance and the chance to stand up. He then charged and slashed at Takovich's waist, which injured the giant.

Takovich screamed like a fierce beast and swung his hammer once again, now being aimed at the other soldiers. Tarsus paled and dashed forward to deflect the blow. Although he deflected it, he lost balance due to running too fast. Seeing that as an opportunity, Takovich leaped up and raised his hammer, aiming for Tarsus' head.

Seeing the unfavorable situation that the general was in, Matthias spun his hands together and shot a ball made of light at Takovich's abdomen.

Without being able to move freely in the air, Takovich helplessly glared at Matthias. When the ball hit the spot, Takovich was blasted back by more than five meters.

"Success!" Matthias muttered happily. The ball of light was his take on the light weapons of the Spirits, with the weapons being focused on injuring Mystics with no physical body created by their energy frequencies.

The allied Spirits gawked at what they saw; a human using a spell that closely resembled the composition of their weapon?

"Why does a human meddle with the affairs of the Spirits?!" Takovich yelled indignantly.

"Mind your own business, traitor." Matthias rebuked.

"Raargh!!" Out of lividness, Takovich roared with full-blown rage. He ran like a rhinoceros stampeding towards Matthias.

Matthias was preparing to attack when suddenly..

Swoosh!

An arrow flew straight at Takovich's forehead. The arrow plunged deep in the giant spirit's head and killed him. Slowly, the mighty general fell down and disintegrated into specs of light.
