《The Void Wolf》Chapter 225: Eat First, Ask Questions Later
Advertisement
A silver layer of light protected Kara from harm. She looked up at her enemies, unshaken by their attack. The same couldn't be said for the land around her.
“Cowards.” Her body practically radiated with hostility. She was about to take to the sky to fight but Ira appeared next to her and moved first.
“Don’t be brash, Ira!” Kara shouted as she flew after him but he remained just out of reach.
Ira ignored Kara’s shouted and arrived in front of the closest God. He attempted to grab him but both his hands were caught.
“You’ve managed to survive, Avarus?” A pale man wearing blue war paint on his face, as well as a metallic band around his face and arms, spoke. He tightened his grip on Ira’s arms and they snapped under the pressure.
Kara soon arrived but the other two Gods moved to intercept her. One with blood-colored hair and horns manipulated the force of fire. The other was a woman with radiant white hair that reached her ankles. They maintained an adequate distance and used ranged attacks. Massive fireballs came raining down along with glowing white arrows.
Kara let out a low growl as she cut through their attacks but they poured them endlessly, keeping her distracted with the hopes of catching Ira.
Ira didn’t flinch as he watched his arms break and if anything he seemed to expect it. While in the Mortal Realm his physical strength was incredible but it was apparent it couldn't compare to a God with a divinity centered around strength.
“Do you see the difference between us now?” The pale God asked triumphantly as he attempted to pull Ira’s arms apart.
“I do, but who cares?” Ira answered with an unexpected grin. A cloud of black mist exploded from his body and covered the two of them, distorting their surroundings with its appearance.
The only way to stand on equal footing with some of the stronger Gods was Reality Separation and only after consuming enough Divinity would he be able to kill them without using it. He sought to follow the same route as Indras and grow stronger with the more Gods he could consumed.
“Aaaah!” The God began screaming as Ira’s hands sunk into his chest and they plummeted to the ground below, crashing like a meteor.
The other two clearly didn’t expect him to lose to Ira so easily and were momentarily stunned. Kara capitalized on that moment and two silver lights flashed brightly, one cutting and the other piercing through the attacks. The divine power being used to slow her down was cut apart with a mystifying explosion that shook the air with an unimaginable force. The forest below was decimated but no one paid it any attention, choosing to focus on their opponents instead.

“Stop her!” The red-haired God shouted as he put his hands together. Transparent red rings appeared above him and a miniature sun fell toward Kara.
The glowing haired Goddess also let go of her restraint, summoning countless glowing white arrows that radiated with power.
Kara couldn’t help but smile as she was finally able to fight with the intent to kill. She brandished her weapons once again and in an instant hundred of silver lines were sent out. The power of Gods clashed together drawing a beautiful but devastating sight.
Below them, Ira was busy pulling his hands out of the pale God’s chest and held a brightly glowing orb of light.
“NO!” His victim screamed but Ira devoured the orb in an instant.
The agonizing scream of a God played like music in his ears and he consumed a new Divinity with glee. The God underneath him looked on in horror as a black hole appeared on his chest and began devour his body before he vanished in the blink of an eye.
Ira maintained his Reality Separation state and turned to find his next target. Kara managed to hold off the two Gods due to her battle-related Divinity but it remained a stalemate. Mostly due to the Gods she fought showing cautiousness toward each of her attacks. It only took seconds for them to exchange hundreds of attacks while avoiding Kara’s blade and spear.
“That won’t do,” Ira said, his voice distorted and distant. He lowered his body and dozens of fissures spread out before he leaped forward with a terrifying momentum.
“We must retreat for-” As red-haired, horned, God was about to suggest abandoning their task, Ira arrived behind him and smashed a shadowy fist into his back sending him flying away.
Of course, Ira was unrelenting and moved forward throwing black spheres ahead of him to keep the God tied down.
The small spheres seemed harmless enough but flew just as fast as Ira and once they were in the vicinity of the fire-wielding God, they exploded. A strange event occurred after the attack, cracks appeared in the air disrupting the stability of space and the fire God had his limbs ripped off. No blood was spilled and his arms even showed signs of regenerating as fire covered his wounds.
“That just won’t do at all.” Ira chuckled as he appeared above the injured God.
His dark hand went into the Horned God’s chest before he pulled his arm back, bringing a fiery orb with it.
Ira tossed the orb it into his mouth like a piece of candy. His actions were so fluid that it didn’t even seem like he was stealing the Divinity of another being. With another divinity in his possession, Ira greedily turned his eyes to the remaining Goddess.

“This one is mine!” Kara shouted as she broke through the wall of glowing arrows.
Since two Gods were no longer obstructing her together, she could fly freely. Kara thrust her sword through the chest of the Goddess but the latter shook her head.
“I won’t die as easily,” She said in a mysterious manner. It was apparent what she meant when her body changed into a glowing ball of light and flew in the opposite direction.
"You'll meet your end soon," Kara shouted but made no movements to pursue.
Kara recalled her weapons and descended to the ground with a regretful face. Although she was injured it didn’t take long for Gods to heal.
“You sure showed her,” Ira intoned sarcastically as his body returned to normal. A layer of black clothes covered his body which caused Kara to look surprised.
“You understand how to create objects from your own power?” She inquired, ignoring his comment.
“Sure I do.” Ira shrugged before his face winced in pain.
Kara didn’t notice his discomfort and continued on. “If that was the case then why did you remain naked when I ran into you?”
“I just forgot is all.” Ira clenched his chest. Glowing red veins appeared on his body and steam began to roll off the surface of his skin.
“...Are you alright?” Kara finally noticed his plight and moved forward with the intention of healing him but he waved her away.
“Yeah, I ate something bad is all,” Ira replied with a dry laugh. His eyes began flashed with an eerie light and he fell into a coughing fit, spewing out an inky black liquid.
“No, something isn’t right...” Kara recalled what he did in the battle before and narrowed her eyes. “You...stole their divinity, correct?”
“Yes, I did but…Just hold on a second...” Ira trembled as he fell to his knees. His body felt as if it was going to burst and he had to wonder how Indras was able to devour so many Gods.
“You’re in the possession of two conflicting divinities that clash with one another. You cannot hold both.”
Kara’s words fell on deaf ears as Ira stubbornly resisted the eroding.
“Listen to me, you’re risking your life for no reason.” Kara gripped his shoulder and tried to shake him but he pushed her away, sending her stumbling back.
“It's…fine...” Ira grit his teeth and forcefully tried to digest the “divinities.”
His body began to burn up from the inside with smoke rising from his skin and a black liquid pouring out his eyes.
‘Still too early.’ Ira thought to himself before finally giving up. He used the fire-based divinity to strengthen his connection to the Void and consumed the strength-based one before collapsing in exhaustion.
Indras didn't even consume multiple Gods until he approached the very end of his life. He went one by one, taking time to increase his strength. It was beneficial to him but it also gave the Gods time to gather up and trap him. Ira didn't want to run the risk but it was clear he would need time to adjust to any newly gained power.
“Are you satisfied? If you’re too greedy it’ll get you nowhere.” Kara admonished him in a motherly tone.
“It got me this far.” Ira grinned weakly.
“We’ll discuss this matter another time...For now, let’s go before more Gods arrive.” Kara was about to fly when she noticed Ira didn't move. “What are you doing? We don’t have time to sit around.”
“It’s not that I don’t want to…” Ira trailed off before continuing. “I just can’t.
“You can’t? Do you honestly believe that you'll be able to hold off against more Gods in your current state?”
“No, I can’t move,” Ira mumbled.
Kara looked at him in disbelief before sighing loudly and lifting him. “I still can’t believe one of my descendants married you.”
She hurriedly flew off without delaying and sometime later nearly a dozen Gods were at the scene of the battle.
“We're too late.”
“The Avarus is a slippery one is he not?”
“Hmph, Xandes is no different, keeping information away from the rest of us to try and snatch it all for himself.”
“It’s fine as long as the Avarus is captured, isn't it?"
"We’ll have to pay close attention to every event in this realm if we want to track him.”
“As long as Kara is close by there are ways to track him. After all, her presence won’t be obscured by that foul darkness he carries.”
“Then let the search begin.”
“...It is more like a hunt for a rabid hound and a flying pest who’s lost sight of what’s important.”
The Gods departed after scouring the sight of the battle. Although they were speaking confidently, none of them were willing to battle Ira alone without a deeper understanding of his ability.

Here, deadly beasts were regarded as sacred, and thankfully, he owned a museum for deadly beasts. “Master, this is just a dying little tortoise…” “What tortoise? This is a rare species that contains the blood of a Black Tortoise and could be promoted up to level seven.” “What about this shedding mongrel?” “Mongrel? How narrow-minded. This is a branch descendant of the snarling hound with a hint of Kirin’s blood. Take my word for it and sign the blood contract at once.

8 109Looping, oh the fun! (Naruto)
Naruto and Sasuke are looping, and they're bored. They've already destroyed Konoha 15 times, taken over the world 15 times, gathered a harem 20 times and failed each time, joined ANBU 78 times, created their own villages over 30 times... What should they do now?For those of you who don't know what looping is, basically, it's time traveling done over and over and over again. Sometimes, it can also be dimension jumping (which appeared in my story). Something always triggers looping. Most of the time the trigger is death. If a character dies, he will wake up back in time. Do things, die again, and wake up back in the same time again. Or in some circumstances, wake up and find oneself in another dimension. See "Naruto Omake Files Innortal Style" for reference. Recommend Chapter 7 New Intros.
