The Rise Of A Porter

"Now where is he?" Lucifer scanned the destroyed battlefield but could not sense Arnold anywhere, "He's not someone who'd run away from a challenge... is he?"

"No, he's not." Talos replied to the fallen angel before standing right in front of his army of hell, "But he isn't someone who would mingle with filth like you either."

"Oh... it seems I'll have to train his pets for him." Lucifer had a weird sadistic smile on his face, "Then, maybe I'll train him too. That is after I defeat him."

"Hey there Luci boy, long time no see!" Hercules rushed in and joined Talos with Apollo by his side, "As for the question of you defeating the master is concerned, you are a thousand years too early for that. Try to get past us first, then maybe you'll be able to stand for a minute against him."

Hearing Hercule's words made Lucifer enraged. A fcking demigod had the audacity to mock him as if he was a whore? Not even Hercule's father had been such a big fool to mock him, the king of the demons!

But the mockery had just begun, for it was Apollo's turn to confront Lucifer. With his flaming hair and radiance of the sun, Apollo's presence on the battlefield cleared up the darkness looming over the planet.

That was the reason Hercules left Talos to go and check-in with the remnants of Olympus who were still willing to fight for humanity's survival. After all, Asgardians weren't the only ones having their own sun and moon deities. For now, the Greeks would take control over the skies till the sun and the moon goddesses could get resurrected again.

"I don't know why you think going against our godly alliance would do you any good, Lucifer." Apollo shrugged his shoulders before jumping off his grand chariot, "Look around yourself, that man took down all of the dragons by himself without breaking a sweat, and you think your puny demons can do anything to harm such a person?"

It might seem like Apollo was trying to reason with the fallen angel when in reality he was just mocking him for having even lower intelligence than Hercules. No offence to Olympus's champion though. He had his strength but... everyone knew Hercules' top floor was more or less empty.

By this time, Lucifer really got pissed. The dragons might have been stronger than the demons, but their unity was laughable. After all, the only reason Arnold was able to defeat them was that he made it so they ended up fighting within themselves.  Then used that opportunity to kill them!

Demons were not such big fools. They might have been weaker than most dragons in terms of strength, but their unity and loyalty to their king were unconquerable... however, that was only till portal opened up next to Talos, and out of it came Natasha, who herself was the demon queen of lust.

As soon as she appeared on the battlefield, the lower-ranking demons immediately lost their composure. How could they not? Most of them praised her as their goddess and seeing her in flesh made them feel as if there was nothing more they needed to do but to succumb to her lust and die.

However, she did not appear there alone. Alice, Tiamut, and Dani followed her along with thousands of Adamantine golems. It seemed as if Arnold had pulled all the stops now and was bringing everything he could right on the table.

Hell, if these bastards wanted to rule over his planet and kill the people he cared about, then they would have to go through a gruelling battle first. A battle even the gods would not survive, let alone these demons. However, there was something more...

"What is this pressure I'm feeling..." Lucifer couldn't help but feel overwhelmed as the last participant of the battle walked through the portal.

However, he wasn't the only one who felt that way. All of the gods, dragons, demons, giants and humans alike felt an insane amount of aura as a man walked through the portal. It was something none of them had ever felt before, and those who had, they had forgotten it long ago.

At the moment, the person in front of them wasn't a human or a half-god. But someone who had far exceeded the realm of godhood. He was a man they couldn't help but bow down to. It didn't matter whether they were his enemies or comrades, they couldn't help but feel a sense of looming fear over their heads.

It was as if they had been forced to put their head on the line while a guillotine blade was being prepared to slice their heads off. As for the gods, most of them felt such an aura for the first time, except Hera and Odin, both of whom had seen one god having such a legendary aura around him. It was none other than Shiva.

"Such... intensity!" Hera barely managed to squeak out while Odin was stunned into silence before realising what had happened.

'Hw must have been successful in fusing his heart with Typhoon's...' He thought before tapping on Baldr's shoulder, "If you manage to survive the war, then be sure to beg for your life to the supreme being."

Baldr, who would have usually thrown a fit after hearing his father's words, could not help but nod vigorously while gulping down his saliva. Handling Arnold before would have been a difficult task, but doing so now was impossible.

No matter how many gods, demons or dragons, Zeus and Loki would have made on their side, there was no way they would be able to defeat Arnold as he was now. The only one who would even have a chance against him would have been Shiva himself and no one else.

However, Lucifer seemed to still be in denial. Being one of the primordial beings, he knew very well what Arnold had done. As a result, he was also aware of how fcked up he and his demons were now.

"Don't think we are going to-" Lucifer began mumbling but Arnold looked at him and gestured him to shut up.

"I hate when mosquitoes keep humming in my ears," Arnold mumbled and opened his eyes, which had turned golden, "It'll be better if you shut your damn trap and call those bastards Zeus and Loki here.. Maybe then, I'll spare your life."
