Chapter 177 Old School
( Thor's northern forces commander )
" Sir, we have confirmed that God Shakuni of Earth has launched an attack on the northern region of our territory, the border response team has set out to stop him, but we have lost all communications with the response ships ". A soldier reported to Mavi, the northern commander of Thor's territories, a tier 7 god.
Mavi was one of Thor's oldest friends, he had been with Thor ever since Thor was a tier 5 mortal and their friendship was centuries old.
However, it was not friendship that landed Mavi his position as the northern commander, it was his impeccable war results and prowess as a warrior that did.
When Thor began carving out his empire in the universe, challenging the monarchs expanding his divinity, it was Mavi who was his enforcer and slaughterer as the orc god was unstoppable on the battlefield.
Mavi was fearsome because contrary to the racial tendency of orcs to not use much brains to fight, Mavi was a scholar and had heavily invested his free stat points into the intelligence stat.
He was fearless, but not foolish which made him a troublesome opponent to deal with.
He was a pillar of Thor's empire and one of his only two tier 7 subjects.
" Shakuni eh?, If I remember correctly it is the brat who just came out hot from Omega as a tier 6 god.
It's been only a year and he thinks he can challenge Thor?
Looks like someone needs to be taught a lesson in respect… " Mavi said calmly as he got up from his throne-like chair and looked at the presented report.
After confirming the coordinates of where the battle was going on, Mavi disappeared from his position as he used a spacial movement technique to reach the coordinates fast.

( Meanwhile Rudra )
" You know guys, I used to enjoy working out a lot, especially the forearm grip exercise, there used to be this pliers like device that would be hard to squeeze, it helped build forearms.... A great device!
But after I became like tier4 all earthly materials became too weak to give me proper resistance.
I have to thank you for today, because you have provided me with the opportunity to train my forearms after such a long time today " Rudra said as he squeezed the necks of two tier 6 god's at once.
The gods in his grip were struggling violently, trying to conjure spells, trying to break away, however, they failed to do so under the grip of Shakuni the undefeated.
Rudra had gained such a high proficiency in his skill ' Mana Drain ' that he made it impossible for his target to send mana through his body's mana veins without Rudra absorbing it first, nullifying any spells that they could conjure.
The elites had completely one sidedly wiped out the thunder nation forces as earth's destroyer ships proved to be much technologically superior and with the enemy having no defensive formation to rely upon in battle, it was easy pickings later on.
The two gods that Rudra was ' Exercising ' on were purple from neck above as the blood supply was completely choked by Rudra making them slowly lose consciousness.
Although Rudra was primarily focused on killing the two god's in his palms, he was also on the lookout for Mavi and the moment he saw a small spacial tear heading his way through his omniscient eyes, he immediately choked the necks of the two god's in his palms making their brains explode as Mavi arrived to a horrifying death scene.
For a moment the Orc god was stunned to witness the one sided route and Rudra's brutality of killing two tier 6 god's with his bare hands, however, he recovered equally fast as he flew upto Rudra staring him straight in the eye.
Rudra was not a short man by any means, but compared to the 8 foot five Mavi, he was tiny.
Mavi looked like the type of guy who could use the snout of an elephant as a leverage point to throw elephants like a shot-put.
A peak specimen of muscles and strength who after a thousand years of constant battles was covered in battle scars, a proof that he had been in many near death encounters but was still standing.
" What toy do you have on you that prevents my eyes from scanning your level? " Mavi asked Rudra curiously
" What confidence do you have to stand before me without an Armour equipped? " Rudra replied arrogantly in response as his confidence threw Mavi slightly off his game.
" I don't need armour to deal with you or the ant army behind you " Mavi said as he flexed his muscles in front of Rudra, making his already huge body appear much larger in hopes of intimidating the Earthen god.
"Well…. The ant army behind me obliterated your boys, so what does it make your troops? " Rudra asked with a cheeky grin on his face as he pointed the middle finger at Mavi
" Hahaha, a funny one aren't you boy? Well, since you are fresh out of Omega let me tell you how the REAL universe works.
Here, god's don't fall as easy as ants, the difference between tiers is unbridgeable, even if your tier 6 ass can kill those two tier 6 god's it can't scratch my tier 7 body…. " Mavi was about to say more when he felt a dangerous incoming attack as he immediately tried to jump back and retreat.
Mavi moved barely in time to dodge Rudra's movement of unsheathing his sword and swiping it at Mavi's bare chest as although the tier 7 god dodged the attack, a trickle of blood streamed down his chest where Rudra's blade had cut him.
The whole process happened so fast Mavi barely had any time to react as he stared at Rudra wide eyed after the attack, as he realised that his opponent was probably not as weak as he thought he was.
" You were saying ….? " Rudra said with a cheeky voice as he enjoyed watching the colour drain out of Mavi's face.
" Who the fuck are you? " Mavi asked, panic seeping into his voice as he realised that today's fight was going to be a long and tough one.
