Gilgamesh in DxD

Chapter 254

Chapter 254

Thor took the punch to the face and was forced to step back as the earth giant's fist struck him.

Before Titan could react the God of Thunder held his hand while earning a huge smile.

Swinging his mighty war hammer Thor struck Titan with all his might causing Titan to be totally crushed by the power of the Hammer of Thunder.

Preparing to move forward after defeating Titan the God of Thunder was stopped when several pillars of red flames emerged from the ground incinerating his entire path.

Thor had to retreat as the flames hit his body burning his skin, looking forward he saw the source being Ifrit the Lord of Flames who had his hands outstretched as he released torrents of flames.

Increasing his divine power even more Thor forced the flames to dissipate and aimed his Mjolnir at Ifrit hurling him at the Fire Avatar who was launched flying and destroyed by the power of the Thunder Hammer.

Before Thor could retrieve his hammer he sensed the danger and turned his gaze back and was stunned by what he saw.

An immense wave of water, a gigantic tsunami hundreds of feet high crashing over the battlefield with Leviathan at the center of it controlling it.

All Thor could do was be thrown violently by the wave that dragged the Gods with supernatural force.

Even within the immense wave Thor could see that Gilgamesh was totally unharmed when the wave didn't hit him.

Extending his hand his mighty hammer Mjolnir instantly returned to him and Thor tried to fly out of it, but was stopped when his body was bound by water serpents.

Leviathan swam into the water with unmatched speed and drove his fangs into Thor's neck, who roared with fury trying to hit the serpent.

Even as Thor's hammer crashed into the serpent all it did was cause Leviathan to turn into water and reform.

She was water itself personified, even if her body was destroyed she could regenerate herself infinitely, for she was an avatar of the element itself.

Seeing that he had no other option Thor released his immense divine power causing Leviathan and the water to drift away as he flew out of the whirlpool of water.

Out of the water Leviathan tried to follow Thor, but the God of Thunder unleashed an immense bolt of lightning that resounded in the sky and crashed into Leviathan, who, being made of water, was electrified and sent back into the water.

The sky shook as lightning and thunder surged everywhere drawing Thor's attention.

For it was not he who created that lightning.

Looking back Thor saw that Ramuh, the Avatar of Lightning was standing in the sky with immense lightning bolts dancing on his staff.

Swinging his staff the lightning avatar rained his lightning down upon Thor who with his hammer hurled his own lightning at the lightning sage.

Thor simply smiled, "Then that's all I have to do" said Thor as he raised his hammer.

Suddenly the world changed.

It was the croaking of crows, as if a flock of them had suddenly appeared just to look at the world. To witness and contemplate. To record and write history.

Why did it suddenly rain?

Why did the lightning and the thunder suddenly roar with the force of an impassable storm?

That answer was found at the center of the series of unnatural events.

Uruz, the force of will.

Hagalaz, of hail, destruction and chaos.

Tiwaz of Victory.

The Norse runes spread menacingly across Gilgamesh's eyes in a dark blue over the steel surface of the hammer of the God of Thunder, further imbuing him with the kind of strength that could not have been wielded by mortals.

It was the power of heavenly thunder. Of strong winds and gale force that ripped the very warmth from the skin, leaving nothing but icy husks reminiscent of the work of the ancient horde. The Frost Giants.

It was a hammer known to have slain countless legendary foes in myth. Its mallet was larger than the handle itself, threads of lightning rising through its metal surface.

A tool of war.

The Avatars of Gilgamesh tried to approach it in every possible way, but even they were having difficulty approaching the epicenter of the storm that was Thor's divine power.

Thor realized that only with his current power will not be enough, to defeat Gilgamesh and his Avatars he would need to use the full power of his mighty hammer and his divinity, he would need the true power if Mjolnir, something he has not done since the war against the ice giants.

For any God to unleash his true power against a mortal might have been considered an insult, but for Thor he would never feel offended by it.

For even Thor recognized that the man in front of him was a monster.

A monster capable of standing against him, Thor himself, the God of Thunder.

Gilgamesh knew that beating Thor would be tricky, and the biggest problem was Mjolnir.

To rival Mjolnir Gilgamesh could throw all his treasures, but to the honorable God of Thunder, Gilgamesh would wield his own weapons.
