The World's most Overpowered Side-Character

"Don\'t you dare yield!" Sol continued pressing Dr\'ul until her back was nearly touching the ground. "This is what you wanted isn\'t it?" He Squeezed into her hands causing her fingers to turn crooked as he mercilessly overpowered her. "Come on!"

"I will not, there is much I still have to show you, much we have to discuss through battle, this is only the very beginning!" Dr\'ul snapped with a roar pushing against Sol\'s weight and strength until the armour around her arms and legs shattered and veins appeared across her jaw and forehead as she matched his strength once more.

"I would die rather than yield!" The goddess roared a second time, dragging sol toward herself and slamming her forehead into his nose.

"Oho!" Ikaris exclaimed sitting further forward on the edge of her seat. "The goddess finally lands a blow!" She clapped watching Sol stagger backwards and block the next few strikes from auch more feral Dr\'ul with one hand covering his nose.

"I am the goddess of war, my power grows with warfare, can you hear them?" Dr\'ul paused and then launched herself at Sol blocking his raised hand and knocking him backwards again with a heel-kick to his chest, spinning and conjuring a sword of pure flames.

"So that\'s how you did it!" Sol stopped himself and created a similar sword made of mana, clashing with her and then retreating when their weapons stuck to each other and created a negative explosion that ate at the matter in the area, leaving a null space that screeched for a few seconds before slammog back shut.

"Goddess of war, I knew you were special but this is beyond my expectations!" Sol skipped backwards while she was trying and failing to lay a hit on him.

"What is he talking about?" Arla asked, from what she had just witnessed, Dr\'ul just got stronger out of the blue, and she hadn\'t said anything to give her secrets away, truly this was a fight she dis not have the ability to comprehend.

"Allow me to explain my dear viewers!" Ikaris gladly volunteered to fill in the blanks, watching Sol continue to block Dr\'ul\'s increasingly powerful blows grinning widely at her progress. "We all know and vividly remember what happened five years ago-" She began, there is not a single one of us that need be reminded of the horrors that happened that night."

Dr\'ul\'s punch came at the speed of a meteor, and Solmet her Fist with his own fist, halting her momentum and slamming his other fist in her abdomen, and then barely retreated his elbow and pressed his fingers against her torso while she was still stunned before forcing the space between his hand and her abdomen shut with a one inch punch that left her gasping in place while the terrains behind her evaporated from the unseen force of the punch.

Before she could recover Sol feinted several kicks and Slammed his right fist into her abdomen in the same spot, successfully deploying another similar attackbthat sentbhet flying and coughing up golden blood.

"The goddess of war has evolved quite a lot from that night," Ikaris continued, paying attention as the crowd slightly sobered seeing Dr\'ul get owned by a flurry of attacks from Sol before he summoned his hammer again and slammed it into her side effectively breaking her arm as she was sent in a diagonal trench through the ground with no sign of stopping.

"She has fed off the war for years and grown immensely more powerful than her fellow gods, by literal means, she feeds off warfare, she feeds off the destruction generated through conflict, negative emotions and bloodshed give her more power; and as we all know, five years ago, Arkadia saw bloodshed on a catastrophic planetary level!"

"She benefited from Sol and Sitri\'s fight?" Dina stared shocked.

"She did not just benefit." Ikaris answered while still commentating.

"She absolutely thrived from it, just look at her, all the intentions and emotions of the people, the demons, the gods, everyone that has ever fought under her rule has been feeding her, she is rich from the buffet of warfare!" Ikaris clapped her hands when the ground beneath Sol began trembling and the loose debris began rising around him.

"Maybe we will see her reach her limits in this fight, but that time has yet to come, it is far from it!"

"She has so much power to spare." Sol leapt off the ground and landed on a large floating chunk that had been separated from the main surface during their fight, sticking to it and staring upside down as it slowly rotated with him.

"Is this how the other guys felt fighting me?" He wondered; every time she reached close to some kind of limit she physically broke that limit and pushed her threshold higher.

The ground erupted in magma fissures and pits of flame, balls of burning crimson mananflew off the surface into the air around him, and like a vengeful spirit from hell Dr\'ul emerged and locked on to him, her armour was slightly different than before and whole again, and her hair was now fully aflame, talk g thebform of physical fire much like Sorath\'s did in her fight with Sol, with the only noticeable difference aside from its crimson colour was thebfact that it was twice the lwngth of her body.

Sol leapt off the floating body, crushing it in the process as he and the goddess of war exchanged several devastating blows, not even bothering to block or dodge they just went at it like rabid berserkers, each punch generating enough power to collapse a star easily, forming fissures in space and causing the terrain beneath and around them to suffer as the cosmic heat generated from their attacks melted everything in it\'s reach.

"Do you see, Godslayer!?" Dr\'ul finally blocked one of Sol\'s attacks and spinning into his guard and raising her Fist into his chin, sending him upward and grabbing his legs and dragging him back down into another punch to his chin rattling his brain.

"Do you still feel the need to hold your trump?" The goddess used Sol\'s leg as a platform and leapt backwards while he crashed downward, opening her mouth wide.

[Divine tier magic]

"This fight is about to get flashy!" Ikaris leapt from her seat excitedly. "I will delay the broadcast by a few seconds so the systems can Interperet the following actions!" She balled her fists, showing childlike fascination as Dr\'ul inhaled.

"Breath of the anguished"

Dr\'ul released a beam of pure crimson mana from her throat right into him, and Sol who despite being stunned could feel the wave of concentrated mana approaching wildly flashed his head free of stray thoughts and landed like a meteor, staring up with his mouth wide open as golden mana emerged.

[Divine tier magic:]

"Cosmic Scream!"

Sol felt the kickback as his counter clashed into Dr\'ul\'s attack and created a rift between them as soon as it did, but he received a shock when the [Cosmic Scream] failed to keep up with her [Breath of the Anguished] and her attack completely tore through the rift eating his and slamming into him, creating an explosion akin to several supernovas going off simultaneously.

Levelling the entire area and carving a hole so wide the edges disappeared into the dark of space.

*hooo~

Dr\'ul exhaled and stared down with her power still growing as she fully understood what came next, what she was looking forward to the most was Sol using his Godslayer abilities, but he had been holding himself from doing so, she gained some level of hope when she saw a glint of gold far in the dark pit her attack had caused, but a moment later that gold turned out to be a weapon as it zoomed past her face.

"Wh-"

Her words were cut off when Sol appeared, grabbing the small three bladed knife and spinning with a kick to her ribcage that she failed to perceive or even grasp as she was sent cascading through the darkness with blood escaping her mouth and nose.

"You have to do far better than that, Dr\'ul!" Sol emerged from the darkness before her with a double heeled kick to her chest, shattering her armour, and then keeping pace and punching her with a roar causing her crash to outpace him again before he closed the distance and pressed his palm against her face with a grin.

"He took an attack more powerful than the explosion of a star to his face and is saying she needs to do more... What is happening!?" Ikaris excitedly clapped and leapt around. "This is amazing!" She embraced her role entertaining the crowds who were all cheering as they formed more clear divides between who supported Sol and who supported Dr\'ul.

[Imaginary tier]

"Forced Sun!" Sol unleashed his attack, and a star was instantaneously created and then exploded right in Dr\'ul\'s face, shooting her into the base of her first crater while Sol landed beneath his attack and grabbed her foot at the same moment she hit the ground and roared, throwing her back onto the face of the expanding explosion and pointing his hand at her and shooting off a massive [pulsar] from his index finger, trapping her against the expanding star and blowing everything asunder.

"If your goal is to fight the Godslayer you have to face me with the power to destroy this universe and all the inhabitants in it, Godslayer isn\'t a toy!" Sol watched the goddes of war fall toward him with crimson mana burning her injuries away in her approach.

"Then I will start with this space, with this galaxy, if what you desire is a villain I am overly qualified to fill that role!" The goddess\'s eyes turned fully crimson, and Ikaris slowed in her excitement and stared at her surprised as she again felt familiarity.

"Goodness me, this little one is rather interesting, after all."
