CHAPTER 114: CHAPTER 114: THAT’S MY AUTHORITY FRAGMENT!

"Without that cheat-like divine authority, without overwhelming divine power to crush others..."

"Even a god is nothing special!"

On the battlefield of the Hades Palace, the situation was completely beyond everyone’s expectations.

At this moment, Eros, a mere human, was pressing down on Hades, who had just overwhelmed four deities alone with godly might.

Even with help from Hecate and Nyx suppressing Hades’s divine authority, such a scene was still stunning.

It wasn’t just that Eros was unexpectedly strong, he had surpassed ninety percent of goddesses who possessed divine roles but lacked real experience.

Even more surprising was that, despite Hades still being stronger overall, she was being pushed back repeatedly by Eros’s fierce offensive.

The battle lacked the grandeur of clashing divine artifacts and authorities, but in terms of intensity, it far surpassed it.

"Hades! Every move you make is within my expectations!"

"Too slow! Too slow! Still too slow!"

Each shout was followed by Hades’s defenses being broken through, with Eros’s heavy punches slamming relentlessly into her.

Don’t think that he sparred with Hades before just to take advantage.

From the very beginning, Eros had already prepared for the day he would have to fight her for real.

Under the pretense of sparring, he had thoroughly memorized Hades’s habits and fighting patterns.

That’s why, to Eros, every move of hers seemed a step behind.

Of course, there were more reasons he could hold the upper hand now.

Eros was wilder, more savage, and possessed a fiercer will to fight.

No matter how lazy or unserious he seemed normally, when it came to battle, both his Cosmo and magnetic field powers kicked in, pushing him into full focus.

Fighting was exhilarating!

Not long ago, Eros could only hold a 60/40 win rate when fighting Poseidon in close quarters.

But after these past few days, his progress had skyrocketed.

Though Eros jokingly called his [Killer Whale Fist] just a normal "basic attack," it was in truth a top-tier T1-level martial technique within magnetic field combat.

Every blow he launched pierced through Hades’s divine defense, inflicting overwhelming destructive force on her body.

"Too weak! Far too weak!"

"Your right punch lacks speed, your left punch has no power, your footwork is hesitant, your reactions are sluggish, none of your moves can keep up with me. Is this really all you’ve got?"

Head, shoulder, abdomen, waist, legs, Eros showed no mercy, unleashing his full power onto Hades’s body without reservation.

The Hades Palace, which had taken much effort to rebuild, was now teetering on the brink of collapse under the force of his assault.

"EROS!!!"

Amid the relentless taunts and attacks, Hades’s anger finally erupted, mixed with a strange thrill.

She could feel it. Every punch from Eros didn’t just hit her body; it struck her heart.

So this... is what it means to "communicate through fists between true powerhouses"? It actually works?

Her anger, her elation, she poured all her emotions and sensations into the fight.

And under this intense outburst, Hades noticed a change within herself.

Emotion burned like fuel, igniting a new, faint but limitless potential.

Following that force instinctively, she shouted:

"[Black Hole]"

"[Underworld Fist]!"

A black vortex formed in Hades’s hand and blasted toward Eros in fury.

Though this strike wasn’t very strong, it still caught Eros off guard and struck him head-on.

"This is..."

The familiar aura and instinctive resonance told Eros exactly what had just happened.

That was a fragment of the [Authority of Desire], drawn to Hades by the emotional explosion, appearing on her body of its own accord.

After landing the blow, Hades calmed down slightly, beginning to carefully sense this new power.

"So that’s it. This is the true nature of your power. No wonder I couldn’t replicate it no matter how hard I tried."

Hades had long been curious about Eros’s strange abilities, but no matter how she imitated them, she failed.

Now she finally understood that the essence of his power came from emotion and desire.

But that left Eros speechless.

Hades, you’re the boss, not the protagonist. Breaking through mid-battle like this, aren’t you stealing my script?

Also... that’s MY authority fragment! Mine!

Feeling the deep craving and pull from his soul and body, Eros made up his mind, he must reclaim that fragment once this is over.

"Then let’s begin round two."

Hades gave up using her divine authority completely and threw herself wholeheartedly into wielding this new power.

Compared to wielding authority, letting raw emotion and desire fuel her fists... felt far more satisfying.

"Alright."

Eros regenerated his injured arm using [Cellular Reconstruction].

Such damage was insignificant in magnetic field battles, only absolute differences in power determined the victor.

Round two began, and this time, both fighters simultaneously used their strongest moves to collide head-on.

"[Infinite Shockwave]!"

"[Hand of the Underworld]!"

Despite using divine power to bolster her technique, Hades still came out worse in the clash.

The massive energy they couldn’t contain in their fists exploded outward, engulfing everything nearby.

The gods of the Underworld watching nearby were stunned and quickly fled to avoid the blast radius.

This was the first time they had seen two beings generate such destructive force purely from physical might, without using any divine authorities.

Only the Titans and ancient giants possessed such terrifying bodies.

And even after the explosion’s shockwaves faded, Eros and Hades were still clashing at lightning speed with immense force.

Burning their emotions and desires as fuel, they let these feelings drive every move.

Hades had finally caught up to Eros in will and battle instinct.

Her talent began to shine, her power rising, until she too reached the fifty-hundred-thousand horsepower threshold.

But until Eros broke through the next wall, she couldn’t go further either.

Magnetic field power was infectious, whenever a strong user broke through, the surrounding environment would shift, pushing others to catch up.

If Zeus hadn’t been secretly managing the magnetic field’s effect on the environment, the mortal world would be swarming with lunatics by now.

But following Eros, the second, or perhaps third, madman had appeared.

With wild excitement in her eyes, Hades tore her once-elegant black dress, her dark pupils filled with unrestrained pleasure.

And Eros felt the same. This fierce, no-holds-barred battle thrilled him beyond words.

Within minutes, the two had exchanged nearly a thousand blows, reducing the Hades Palace to ruins.

"Was he always like this?"

Hypnos stared blankly at the scene before her.

Though she’d known Eros was stronger, she always thought they were simply on different paths.

But this brutal, firsthand display stirred other emotions in her.

It wasn’t fear of losing, it was being overwhelmed by sheer presence.

The battle before her was nowhere near as grand as when divine authorities clashed and Hades shook the Underworld, but its raw savagery and dominance far surpassed that spectacle.

Two overwhelming beings, this was violence in its purest form.

Fist to fist, so brutal, so primal, so... intense.

Blow after blow, recovering swiftly, then pushing even harder to smash the opponent down.

The two of them repeated this cycle endlessly, pouring every emotion into their fists and striking each other without hesitation.

And the thing Eros had said, about "fists exchanging hearts", Hades truly felt it now.

Driving her punches with her own emotions and desires, she could sense the blazing feelings coming from Eros’s strikes.

It wasn’t a pure love. Hades clearly felt Eros’s possessiveness and lust, but the heat of his emotion was undeniable.

Realizing that, the fire in her chest burned even hotter.

And for those feelings, she would naturally have to respond.

She too fueled her power with emotion, pushing her strength higher.

If you love her, then stay with her.

Madmen attract each other.

Before, with just Eros, things were still manageable, but now, with Hades involved...

Their fists carried their hearts, crashing together and sparking ever-intensifying fire.

Originally, Eros had just made up the theory, hiding his [Illusory Emperor Fist] within his strikes to influence Hades.

But he never expected the clash between magnetic field powerhouses to actually have that effect.

He felt the madness burning beneath Hades’s calm, her obsession, and couldn’t help but be affected himself.

Magnetic field power was driven by intense emotion, and in the face of Hades’s frenzy and fixation, Eros actually seemed slightly outmatched.

During a brief pause between clashes, Eros quickly analyzed.

Defeating Hades wasn’t hard. He could enter [Debt King Form], wielding the will of all mankind through the Akashic domain.

In that case, unless she broke through the wall before her, Hades would fall in seconds.

But why go that far?

If they both had five hundred thousand horsepower, why couldn’t Eros win?

Even if Hades had divine power on her side, Eros had Cosmo energy too.

There was no reason, if their power was equal, he should be able to win.

Turns out, to gather all the authority fragments... romancing goddesses was the real method after all.
