Ankhseram God Admits Defeat (Part 1)
"Boom!"
Just then, an extremely terrifying bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at Hawking's head, seemingly displeased with Hawking actions and about to kill him on the spot.
The intensity of this lightning was more than ten thousand times stronger than the Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic of Laxus, one of Fairy Tail's strongest mages.
"This little bit of power is no match for me."
Hawking's internal energy erupted suddenly, and with its terrifying aura, it directly dispersed all the destructive lightning.
At the same time, he pointed his hand at the dark clouds in the sky, and a powerful beam of energy shot into the sky.
"Boom!"
A deafening roar echoed throughout the world, and the dark clouds vanished.
"Revered Ankhseram God, would you be interested in showing yourself and having a chat?"
Hawking made no attempt to conceal his powerful aura, and shouted casually toward the spot where the dark clouds had just been.
A moment later, a black figure shrouded in the Shinigami Power appeared opposite Hawking.
"Foolish mortals, how dare you break my curse! You will face divine punishment far more severe than theirs!"
The mortal before him possessed a special power that even he could hardly comprehend, a power that was almost comparable to his own. However, as a god who held the power of life and death, he felt that he could still punish this mortal.
God's power lies not only in the energy within his body, but also in his mastery of the laws.
As the god who controls life and death in this world, Ankhseram can use his divine power to curse any mortal, making them live or die as they please, or even worse off than dead.
"Divine Punishment - Death!"
Ankhseram raised his hand and pointed at Hawking, and the curse of death immediately descended upon Hawking.
"Disperse!"
However, upon sensing the death curse, Hawking merely waved his serpent staff, and the curse was immediately dispelled by the staff's power.
First of all, he is not from this world, so he is much less affected by Ankhseram's laws of life and death.
Secondly, his Nine Tomoe Rinne Sharingan and his Ophiuchus Cloth also grant him control over life and death.
Finally, he possessed the blood of the Reaper, making him completely unafraid of normal death curses; his soul could leave his body at any time.
Therefore, even without using the serpent staff to dispel it, the curse of the Ankhseram God could not have any effect on him.
The only way to kill him is through a direct, head-on confrontation.
This is why he spends so much time researching various spells and acquiring various abilities, not only to assist in combat, but more importantly, to be able to deal with similar situations calmly.
Setting aside all those messy rules and restrictions, a direct confrontation would be his greatest advantage.
"How could this be? It didn't work!"
Ankhseram was stunned to see that his divine punishment as a god had no effect on Hawking; it was the first time he had ever encountered such a situation.
In his understanding, apart from gods of the same rank, mortals could not withstand his full-force divine punishment.
This is different from the divine punishment he inflicted on those two mortals before. Those two punishments were divine punishments he casually brought down from a distance, and their power was less than one percent of this one.
"Honorable Ankhseram God, are you really sure you want to be my enemy?"
Hawking instantly entered Super Saiyan mode, his internal energy surging fiftyfold.
When Ankhseram God's true form appeared, he roughly judged its strength, which was at most similar to the Reaper in the Saint Seiya World, or even slightly weaker.
If he wanted to, he could easily kill the other party before they could even react.
However, he did not intend to do that. After all, there was definitely more than one god in this world. If he killed this one, it would be troublesome if an even stronger one came along.
So he transformed into Super Saiyan to scare the Ankhseram God.
Sure enough, upon sensing the energy within Hawking after his transformation into Super Saiyan —more than twenty times greater than his own— Ankhseram was so frightened that he immediately retreated more than ten meters.
He felt that even the strongest God of Time among them couldn't match this level of energy intensity.
As a god who controls life and death, he had a very strong premonition at this moment that if he continued to be enemies with the person in front of him, he would die and perish, even if that person was a god who controlled life and death.
"Ahem. It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I was just joking with you."
"That's what I think too. I am Stephen Hawking, and I have always held Ankhseram God in high esteem."
These two are my friends. If they have offended you in any way before, I hope you won't mind in the future.
They've realized their mistake, and out of respect for me, I'm letting them off the hook. I'm incredibly grateful!
Hawking, seeing that he had won, smiled and clasped his hands in a fist salute.
Ankhseram God didn't know what the clasped hands symbolized, but he understood Hawking's meaning and quickly nodded.
"Of course, I was just joking with those two. You know, if too many mortals control life and death, the whole world will be in chaos. It is my duty to issue some warnings."
"Oh, I have many official duties to attend to today, so I'll be returning to the Asgard now."
Fearing that Hawking might suddenly attack him, Ankhseram gave a brief explanation and then hastily used Shunpo to escape.
Hawking didn't stop him. Since Ankhseram had already backed down, he couldn't press the issue any further. He couldn't stay in this world for long, and it was best to know when to stop.
"Alright, I've already spoken with Ankhseram God. He shouldn't make things difficult for you anymore, and you can live a normal life in this world now."
"Thank you, Hawking!"
Zeref and Mavis bowed to Hawking in gratitude.
Being able to live like a normal person is wonderful for them.
Moreover, they never expected that even the Ankhseram God was so wary of Hawking's power.
"It's a matter of each getting what they need."
Hawking placed his hands on Zeref and Mavis's heads and began to copy all the knowledge about magic, to which the two cooperated without resistance.
After all the magical knowledge was copied, Hawking Shunpo the two of them back to the Fairy Tail Guild.
"How's it going?"
Upon seeing the three return, Guild Master Makarov immediately rushed forward and asked.
Mavis laughed and briefly recounted what had happened.
After hearing this, everyone was stunned. That was Ankhseram God who held the power of life and death over all people in the world.
If someone could be scared away by Hawking, then Hawking's strength must have surpassed that of a god.
Having achieved his goal, Hawking released the seals on the Magic King and Irene, and then left the Fairy Tail World.
With his current magical power, he can repair Namek with the Mending Charm. Once he enters the Dragon Ball World tomorrow, he can fulfill his promise to the Namekian Great Elder.
