Elsewhere, Hades was enveloped in orange hellfire.
Holding a long spear, he drew a crimson arc in this void surrounded by raging flames.
Hades, who was originally as large as a giant, voluntarily reduced his size.
Despite his shrunken size, the hellfire burning on his body burned even more fiercely.
The ferocious flames flashing in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
As Hades swung his spear, Victor also swung his crimson spear.
The mane on his armor burst open like flames, and the spear in his hand swept out like a soaring fire dragon to meet Hades' attack from the side.
clang!
The collision of the two produced a crisp, resonant metallic clang that echoed through the space.
The two flames intertwined, like a lion and a vicious serpent with nine heads locked in fierce combat.
In the instant he blocked Hades' attack, Victor deftly twisted his wrist.
He swiftly propelled the gun, causing the sharp spearhead to circle around from behind and point directly at Hades' face.
Hades reacted quickly, immediately raising his arm.
The metal gauntlets on his wrists were engulfed in flames, decisively blocking Viktor's counterattack.
Thump!
The spear struck the gauntlet with a dull thud, and the shockwave traveled along the gauntlet to Hades's palm.
Feeling the vibration in his hand, Viktor could only grip the gun handle tightly, forcibly stabilizing it.
Immediately afterwards, another spear swept past.
The orange-red hellfire drew a long arc in the air.
The flames soared high, like a phoenix spreading its wings.
Sensing the approaching danger, Viktor quickly plunged his spear into the ground.
He gripped the gun handle with one hand, used the momentum to somersault in the air, and avoided the flames that spread several meters away.
He watched as Viktor landed steadily and stood at a distance from him.
Hades stopped attacking and instead held his spear at his side, staring intently at Victor with burning eyes.
"Where did you get this armor from?"
He had wanted to ask Viktor this question for a long time.
However, he was confronting those two gods just now, so it wasn't convenient for him to ask.
After all, at that time, we couldn't afford to lose in terms of momentum.
This armor was crafted by Hades himself and given to the first human hero to pass the trials of hell.
He had long forgotten the name of that human hero.
Because he was the first brave warrior to take on the challenge and fight for human freedom.
Therefore, when the trials were not yet fully developed, Hades did not record the name of any of the thousand human heroes.
True heroes don't need names to be remembered.
But Hades kept this armor in his heart.
Seeing that Hades did not continue his attack, but instead raised a question.
Viktor responded calmly, saying:
"It's a family heirloom."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Hades appeared in front of Victor.
He raised his spear high, and like a sword of judgment, he thrust it down into the earth.
Sensing the rapidly approaching danger, Viktor's eyes flashed with fire as he swiftly parried with his spear.
Almost simultaneously, the tips of the two spears collided, emitting dazzling sparks.
A scorching wave of air immediately erupted, its powerful force causing both spears to tremble.
Even the void surrounding the raging fire showed tiny cracks.
Viktor was thrown back several meters by the powerful impact, leaving a long trail behind him.
Feeling the tingling sensation in his hands, Viktor clenched his fists to steady himself.
Hades was indeed very powerful after unleashing his full power; even this ordinary strike made Hades' arm tremble.
Once he had completely calmed down, Victor looked up at Hades again.
The other person's gaze was extremely somber, and the icy coldness emanating from them was bone-chilling even amidst the flames.
"I'm warning you once."
"If you continue to spout nonsense, the next blow will be to your head."
Hades had long forgotten what the first person to pass the trials of Hell looked like.
But he still vividly remembers that bloodline aura.
Viktor lacked the aura of a hero's descendant, yet he was able to wear the armor that only those with his bloodline could wear.
That's why he was so curious about the relationship between Victor and the owner of the armor.
This is why he previously stopped Erebus from attacking Viktor.
but……
His attack hadn't stopped just now; although he hadn't used his full strength, the sudden attack was still full of power.
Even so, Viktor was able to catch it?
Seeing the other party wearing Hellfire Armor, Hades couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Could it be that this human is actually best at melee combat rather than magic?
"Nonsense?"
Just as Hades was deep in thought, a low laugh came from inside the armor in front of him.
The laughter was soft, as if it carried a hint of helplessness and a touch of mockery.
Upon hearing this voice, Hades' eyes widened suddenly, his gaze fixed intently on Victor.
At this moment, Viktor gripped the spear tightly in his right hand, slung it diagonally behind his back, and stood upright like a pine tree with his legs together.
His other hand was placed horizontally in front of him, holding a dancing, blazing flame in his palm.
"Since you don't believe the truth, then..."
Maintaining this posture, Victor beckoned with his palm, as if in provocation.
"Why don't you give it a try?"
Whoosh—
Instantly, Hades burst forth with magnificent flames, the scorching impact coursing through his spear as it hurtled towards Victor.
