Chapter 9 - Nuclear Missile

"Sealing my Divine Core, you say?! Don't joke with me!"

"Do I look like I'm joking?' It's your own fault for getting baited by me anyway. Do you think I'm that stupid to let myself appear behind you?"

"So you purposely appeared from behind, and let me realise your presence?"

"That's right, and when I took out the water and wet your hands, I intended to put my water into your body"

"Putting your water into my body, what was the purpose and how did your water get in?"

"You fool! You can control water, but you don't know the basic characteristics of water. Let me tell you, one of the characteristics of water is that it can penetrate through smaller gaps. Where does your body sweat from other than the small pores all over your body?"

"That's where you get your water from, but why can't I feel it inside my body? I should be able to feel it!"

"I kept you busy chasing me, so that you wouldn't notice. While I kept my distance from you, I kept controlling my water inside your body to search for the location of your Divine Core. Once I found it, I froze your Divine Core. That is why you are now unable to use your powers"

Seth gasped and rejected reality, "Don't joke with me! Then, how can the effect of this ice seal the my Divine Core?"

"Of course because of the freezing point, in other words, Absolute Zero. The effect of that is that any kind of power will be silenced and sealed"

"He could think of that trick to this extent?" said Spiral in a surprised tone.

"Amazing, I have never seen a Divine with such a silly face. No wonder, since he's the son of Miss Yunia" said Pyrros.

Reina was very pleased with Enatur's abilities.

"The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree" said Shuu.

"No way... No way... No way. How dare you trick me?"

''Dirty tricks work when you're in a life-and-death fight. Moreover, I didn't fully utilise my strength"

"Not fully expending your abilities, you say?"

"To face you, I don't need to use The Great Sword, don't need to create space to stop time, and only need twenty per cent of all my abilities that my mother once taught me, the woman you insult''

Seth clenched his hands together, he ran towards Enatur and threw his fist at Enatur. Enatur blocked his fist with his palm.

"God's power is absolute, there is nothing stronger and nobler than our power"

Enatur just smiled, "Alright, then I'll use this power", a bright red aura came out from his body, "The power for my mother whom you have insulted!"

Enatur's eyes glowed, a bloodthirsty look in his eyes. Seth began to panic, he could not strengthen his physique.

"Chastise him for me, Enatur!" said Spiral.

"TCH!". Tungsten steel formed a glove in Enatur's left hand, and drove his fist wrapped in red aura towards Seth's face.

Seth was pushed several metres away. Enatur mercilessly showered Seth with her fists, leaving him bruised in several places on his body. Enatur's left hand pierced into Seth's abdomen and pulled out Seth's frozen Divine Core. 

A dimensional space appeared, from which came a dagger chain, and wrapped around Seth's entire body up to the neck. The dagger chain brought Seth out of the earth's atmosphere. Enatur was about to launch his final attack. A 50m-diameter dimensional space appeared above the ground. From that space came a large truck carrying a nuclear missile. Another dimension appeared above the ground, and a nuclear launch control table appeared. Enatur used the control table to aim at Seth. The nuclear missile launcher moved according to the coordinates Enatur had set.

"What are you doing Enatur? You're wasting our nuclear on just for one God?", Reina shouted loudly.

"Nuclear missile? What is that thing?" asked Spiral.

''Nuclear is the most powerful mass destruction weapon created by the first type of human in civilisation ten million years ago, Enatur got the journal of nuclear manufacturing from a book in the Vermillion library. The weapon generally cannot be launched carelessly, there are strict and multi-layered procedures to launch it. The explosion is indeed very dangerous, it's lucky if you get hit by the effects of the explosion, but what is far more dangerous than the nuclear weapon is the radioactive that spreads after the explosion. The side effects of radioactive if ordinary humans are affected are far more terrifying than the nuclear explosion itself"

The nuclear missile accelerated towards Seth.

"Miss Spiral, can you prevent the radioactive from penetrating the earth's atmosphere. I don't know what will happen, but I want to prevent this planet from being exposed to radioactivity", Reina bowed down to beg Spiral.

"Well, there are conditions you must fulfil, and I will tell you the conditions after I remove the radioactive"

"Whatever it is, I will fulfil it"

"Alright, we have a deal. I will absorb the radioactive and digest it to become my power!", Spiral took out her wings and flew into the sky.

The neighbours and King Rudolfo saw the nuclear missile launching like a comet.

Seth saw a large object coming towards him.

"BAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG!", a powerful explosion with a force of 180 megatons, and powerful waves echoed in the sky. The dazzling light shined on parts of the earth. Spiral resisted the effects of the explosion with a barrier that protected the earth. The radioactive was absorbed by Spiral's right hand. Spiral sealed Seth's charred body with the barrier, as his body had been affected by the radiation.

"Huh, if it was an ordinary human, they would have been wiped out, luckily he is a God. Although he is still alive, but he is dying, and he will die soon"

Spiral landed on the ground with Seth's body trapped by the barrier. Reina slapped Enatur's left cheek and said,

"What are you doing? Are you crazy enough to nuke him?" Reina shouted. She hugged Enatur tightly.

"I'm, I'm sorry, Reina", Enatur felt guilty.

"You really worry me, you know. From this moment on, I'm taking back your authority over nuclear control. Any uranium we found, I will confiscate"

Pyrros and Shuu caught up with Reina and Enatur.

"What a dangerous thing, I didn't know the development of advanced civilisations created such terrible weapons" Shuu said.

"I'm sorry Miss Spiral caused you trouble", Reina bowed to Spiral.

"No problem, I was pleasantly surprised by his ability to defeat Seth"

"Then what did you bring him for, Miss Spiral?" asked Pyrros.

"I will extract information from him, and I have already absorbed the radiation exposure from inside his body", Spiral made Seth lean against the boulder, and removed the barrier that sealed his charred body.

Spiral kicked Seth's left cheek to wake him up.

"Wake up! There's no time for you to sleep"

"Ju, just kill me. I've already lost to that boy anyway", his face looked surrendered, and his body was already unable to move.

"I won't kill you, I'll heal you, and give you back your Core if you answer my questions. I'll give you a chance to live again!"

Reina took out her mobile phone from her white coat pocket, and started recording.

"If that's the case, what do you want to know?"

"Why do you want the Key of Revelation so badly?"

"God Zeus and God Odin want that thing because they are so afraid of the existence of an angel who ended the age of human civilisation ten million years ago. More than one hundred and fifty billion people from fifty planets were wiped out instantly. After that, Heaven of Light and Hell were destroyed by that angel. What a terrible angel, right? That angel had also risen from ascension and it was likely that cultivation level was already very capable of single-handedly ending the age of The Divine. That's why The Divines are so afraid of dealing with that angel"

"If you really got the Key of Revelation, how would you use it? Is that the angel's weakness?"

"God Zeus' anger was ignited when Yunia activated it. As a result, it cannot be used against that angel. If it is passive, the Key of Revelation can be a powerful weapon to kill that angel. But if it is active, the Key of Revelation can protect all living beings from the angel's unilateral end of time"

Spiral raised her eyebrows, and looked down slightly. Her eyes glazed over and she smiled, as she realised that Yunia was still thinking about her.

"What did El Yunia Vermillion negotiate with the higher-ups of The Divines for?"

"Yunia wants to invite The Divine to work together to fight the creature with the symbol 777 on its forehead"

Spiral immediately clenched her fists until they were bleeding. Her emotions peaked when she heard about the 777 creature. Pyrros and Shuu exchanged glances.

"God Zeus and God Odin agreed, provided that Yunia would surrender the Key of Revelation, give herself up as God Zeus' wife, and put her first daughter under God Odin's control. But Yunia refused, and now Yunia is being arrested by them'

"Really disgusting, who do they think they are? How naive are the Divines?"

"What do you mean, obviously Lord Zeus and Lord Odin are The Divine. A woman like Yunia is no match for them"

"No, you are wrong. You are the ones who have been tricked by her"

"Are you kidding, after all your level is Divine Flawless, realise your position"

"They are already under the control of that old granny, you know? That woman is a very manipulative old fox, uses other people for her own advantage like what happened today, and likes to use dirty tricks", "And you are the one who should be aware of your position, do you know who the hell angel you referred to at the beginning is, and the first daughter of the old granny?"

"The other Divine and I don't know her name, and we've never met her either"

The spiral instantly released an aura of death at maximum level. Seth's eyes were wide open, his whole body was trembling, and immense fear was visible on his face.

"Why... why is there a horrible monster like this? It's as if it's sitting on a throne on top of a huge mountain of corpses!? I feel like I'm facing the seconds of my death", Seth crept backwards with a terrified face.

Spiral walked up to Seth, her creepy eyes fixed on Seth.

"Stay away... Please stay away, don't hurt me, please. I'll do whatever you ask!", Seth closed his eyes.

"Then take me to the Divine Realm"

"Alright, alright... I'll take you there, just please don't kill me!"

Divine Realm, the underground room where Yunia was being imprisoned. Yunia sat near a window with a barrier. On the table were drinks, and a holographic monitor showing Enatur's battle until Seth was interrogated by Spiral. Her eyes were focused outside the window while smoking a cigarette.

"That fool secretly created a nuclear missile?! Just watch out you naughty son! Spiral already knows my trick, and everything is according to my plan. Let's see what you will do to this Divine Realm, my little angel!"

Yunia's eyes flashed with a evil smirk.
