Awakened: Evolving to Godhood

As it felt that Elliot was looking down on it, the serpentine devil instantly felt angered.

"How dare you make fun of me?!" It roared and released its punch at the celestial giant.

Although Elliot's avatar was far larger than itself, the height difference didn't deter it from launching an attack towards him.

The serpentine devil believed that although Elliot's avatar was three times its size, he might not necessarily be stronger than itself.

Oh, it was as wrong as they come!

Bam! Its punch stuck the knee of Elliot's avatar, and to its surprise, he didn't even budge. Its fist that could flatten mountains didn't even shake the leg of Elliot's avatar, much less bruise it!

It was at this moment that the serpentine devil that it had fucked up!

"Even an ant dreams of shaking the chariot?! What a joke!" Elliot taunted with a heavy smirk on his face as he raised his leg and then brought it down at the tiny titan.

His leg draped the serpentine devil in its shadow, causing darkness to surround the serpent's vision, and it came down with such speed that it created a vacuum in mid-air and smashed on the serpent's head before it could move out of the way.

Bam!

Its entire body got buried dozens of feet underground, making it feel like it was attending its funeral in real-time!

"That human trash dares disgrace me?!" Anger boiled in its blood and its face twisted in rage. Instantly, it pressed its hands on the ground and tried to push itself out of the earth.

However, how could Elliot allow it?

He had already designated this place as its burial site, so it should remain there until he felt satisfied.

"Just stay buried inside, little snake."

When half of the serpentine devil's figure came out of the earth, Elliot stomped once again.

Bam! The land cracked, looking as if someone had ravaged it as the serpentine devil got put into its grace again. A mouthful of blood came out of its mouth. Nobody knew whether it puked blood because of humiliation or because of its severe injuries. Well, nobody will know either.

"Ah, I am going to kill you."

The roar of the Serpentine devil reached Elliot's ear, and he felt a mysterious power stabbing into his mind. He felt as if someone had opened up his brain and was now using needles to stab it. Instantly, blood trickled out of his eyes, ears, and nose and his vision also blurred!

What was happening?

[The serpentine devil had burned its essence blood to afflict you with the brain-puncturing curse!]

[The curse is trying to destroy you from the inside out.]

[-20 HP]

[Would you like to clear yourself of the curse by paying 10000 units of the essence of life?]

"Of course," Elliot said without any hesitation. The pain and the threat to his life were so much that he didn't have any room to refuse.

[-10000 units of the essence of life.]

[The curse has become ineffective.]

Immediately after, clarity returned to his mind.

Yet, by that time, the serpentine devil had already climbed out of its grave. It pressed its feet on the ground and jumped to the sky, leaving behind huge cracks and gusts of dusty clouds in its wake.

Elliot only saw a hill-sized punch coming towards his face by the time his vision cleared up.

He immediately raised his gigantic hand and grasped the punch. The force behind his grip was so great that its fist immediately came to a halt.

"How?! How did you break out of my curse so fast?!

The serpentine devil felt the shock of its life! It had burned several drops of its essence blood that were vast enough to create an ocean of blood to put Elliot under a life-threatening curse. It was a move that only a being with the slaughter divinity like itself could cause. Yet, the curse's target managed to pull himself out of the divine curse in mere moments. How the hell was that possible?

Was he facing a man or a God?!

"Haha." Elliot chuckled before saying, "Did you think your little trick will let you gain the upper hand against me? Well, think again as I beat the crap out of you."

Pa!

Those words had just reached the serpentine devil when a heavy slap landed on its face. The might behind the slap was so great that the titan's face deformed. It was already ugly and looked like a monster. Now that its face had also gotten deformed, it looked even more hideous, as if shit plastered on a man's face.

The sound of the slap also echoed throughout the forest, and every eye saw how Elliot humiliated the serpentine devil.

What great devil?

It was nothing more than a kid getting face slapped for being too naughty!

"You dare?!" The serpentine devil's body trembled. It wasn't because of fear but because of endless rage that turned the entire sky of the eternal snow zone red.

"No, I don't dare," Elliot replied as a sarcastic grin popped up on the celestial giant's face.

He was already humiliating it, so why would he need to dare?

Did that even make sense?

'It looks like I have beaten the poor serpent senseless,' Elliot internally laughed.

A single glance at that evil smile told the serpentine devil that misfortune was about to befall it.

Immediately, it tried to break free from Elliot's grasp and escape to safety.

However, its resistance proved to be futile.

"Let go me!" The serpentine devil roared as it tried to pry open his hand.

"As you wish." Elliot released his hold, and it dropped to the ground. It didn't get to rejoice for even a moment as it saw thousand of golden wisps rushing out of the celestial giant's hand, swirling around each other and compressing, condensing into the shape of a giant hammer that was a hundred meters tall.

Bam!

And that hammer came down towards it like a shooting star, crashing on its body.
