Young God Divine Armaments Chapter 8

1st Passage of the Legend: The Awakening of War God

(What in the holy…… mother creator name is that……?)

Thanks to the tremor caused by the giant golem foot step, she gets her focus back to the battle. If not for that she might still be fazed by what she just saw.

Just a moment before it was a view of a barehanded lad dashing forward, that view alone is already ridiculous enough for her. She doesn’t detect any kind of magic too from the lad. What kind of reckless fool is that lad is, she feels like screaming it at him.

Where did that sword came from?

And those questions still looks trivial…… compared to that sword Renya uses. That sword definitely not normal either.

Eventhough it looks like a normal sword, Renya casually use that sword to slice that smaller golem created from magical alloy like slicing butter with a hot knife.

That sword is already a thing that surpasses her logic ability. Be it the material, ability, and history.

And Renya, as the one who wield that sword with ease, is also something surpasses her common sense.

She doesn’t know that as Renya becomes a god, that sword has transformed into a divine armaments.

“E…?”

Dumbfounded by Renya action, she forgot where she was now and made her response delayed. Before her eyes is the other smaller golem approaching her while causing a small quake as it advances. She doesn’t understand what does Floria meant by ‘don’t move’. Before she’s able to think of anything, Floria quickly acts.

“Choiya!”

With that cry, Floria was successful in knocking back that smaller golem… with her bare hand. Of course Floria movement is of those martial artists who had refined their skills to the upmost. But how could Floria’s small fist manage to blow of that harder than steel, heavy golem? There’s no way Brenda would know that Floria hit that golem while concentrating her divine power in her fist so that her punch would pack more strength that easily surpass human understanding. The other three from warrior guild are too busy trying to handle the bigger golem. They don’t have room to watch their surroundings so they don’t realize what happened over here. In a way, one can say that they are lucky. It was a scene that might easily destroy their identity.

In fact it was what Brenda did now. She just stands there with dumbfounded. All she can do is just watch things unfolded before her silently. But even with all this bewilderment, she was still able to hold on the magical quotient she had composed. It shows how high her skill is as a magician but in this situation it won’t even be a consolation prize for her.

He closed the gap, and then with a flow like movement he pokes the golem with a trust. If that sword can speak then it would definitely says things like ‘Nothing can stop me!’ as it pierces the golem body easily. A hole created in that golem body. That hole was created in, if according to human anatomy, a bit under the heart.

“If the creator is the same then the core might have been placed at the same place. Looks like my guess is correct”

Hearing Renya’s word, Brenda reflexively turns her sight to where Renya was fighting. The only thing left there is just chopped slabs of magic alloy that already can’t even be recognized as a golem from its shape. It was perhaps to investigate where the core is placed but checking it by chopping that absurdly solid golem into small pieces was not how a normal human would think of.

“Well… this sword can only be used to cut…… With that size reaching the core might be hard”

With a troubled look, Renya set his sight to the sword on his hand.

It was the first sword that Renya made. It had been used by Renya the longest, but its ability as divine armaments is relatively low.

“…… all I have to do is just to stop its movement right?”

“That can be done, leave it to me”

After consenting to Renya, Brenda starts composing a magical quotient with full focus.

“Darel! This way!”

Renya blocks the golem attack by skillfully handles his divine sword so it won’t cut the golem in the process. Getting its attack diverted, the giant golem tumbles a few steps to keep its super heavyweight body balanced. Seeing that opening, Darel who is close to his limit quickly take some distance from the enemy without any hesitation.

“But sir Renya!”

Renya focus his consciousness inside himself, connecting into the ‘world’ within him. In there, uncountable divine armaments slept. In order to face war god that was Floria’s father he wrings his brain thinking, putting his idea into shape, and even also use the myth and legends from earth as reference for making those divine armaments. Well… there are times when he makes divine armaments that can be said for joke purposes to do a bit relaxation from the hard struggle.

Those were not tools to shows his own conception.

Those were not armors to protect one from bizarre threat.

―― all of it are the blade that is tempered by all of his heart and soul in order to surpass the war god.

The armaments that was stored there is not just a few. From countless divine armaments stored there, Renya with only his ‘awareness’ reaches his hand to a certain weapon.

All the preparation are complete, he conveys that intention to Brenda by eye contact. Brenda then smiles boldly, accepting his challenge.

“I don’t have a hobby of being just a spectator you know? So eat this!!”

From Brenda raised right hand, an amazing surge of magic power torrent flickers about.

Lump of ice dancing furiously inside a strong gale, a blizzard.

That golem machine like movement starts to move even more violently to free itself from the ice prison nailing him down but it was all too late.

Renya points his left hand toward the golem. It was a bare hand. But then red fiery flame starts to blaze out from it.

In that out of this world sight where the other 4 team member just watch dumbfounded, Renya face start to slack off. He can’t hold his smile any longer.

(A… at last it works…! That old man really is just way to strong! Against normal enemies this kind of divine armament is totally effective!)

Renya was also just a human being once.

Renya at that time have a weird obsession when playing RPG games. He keeps fussing about wanting to have a different play style than other players.

Especially he was charmed by items and equipment that has magic or unique effect when used.

A character that can’t use magic was able to do something that has an effect that is close to a magic.

The ability to clean sweep an army of small fries while using no cost at all.

But the truth is rather harsh for him. If it was in game, he won’t need to think about how to create and or to improve the tools. It was already defined from start so all he need to think is just how to use it at its best. And then his opponent is also another big problem too. Sure surprising that war god with tricks and wiles is not that hard… the hard thing is that… war god defensive power himself. Renya armaments barely have any effects on him.

Each one of those armaments was proven to be close to useless in his battle with war god.

And Blazing Crimson War Axe of Divinity [Volcanos] is one of those ‘defects’. It was a hand axe size axe with a fiery divine flame trapped in its crimson colored blade with a ruby adorned. Even if it was already powerful enough as a weapon, it still can create a fiery firestorm that burns enemies to cinders when Renya commands it.

TL notes: what I can think of such item is like magical item from Breath of Fire 3 (if I remember right) where you use an equipment piece as item during battle and it will display the same effect as common magic but the difference is that it doesn’t cost any mp to cast and the equipment don’t get broken (used up) even after multiple time of use. Free magic anyone?

There’s also a message from the author saying that one of this novel concept will be ‘items and equipment that will display special effects when used as items during battle’
