Overgeared

Chapter 2049

Asura's memories of his previous life were faint. He didn’t know anything about life itself.

However, the sensation of taking countless lives had remained at his fingertips. After all, he was the God of FIghting. Surely he had fought and killed every day during his previous life. Then, he must’ve met someone stronger than him and was killed.

This was where Asura became intrigued. How did the one who killed him erase his name from the myths? There had to be a lot of beings stronger than him. For example, the Gods of the Beginning and the Martial God.

Yes, it was understandable if he had died because of them. However, what was the principle behind him being forgotten by people?

Human beings were always competing among each other. No civilization developed without struggle. It wouldn’t have been easy to erase the name of the God of Fighting from their memories. In fact, Asura had been worshiped by people even in recent times. Only a handful of monks offered prayers to the God of Fighting Asura.

Perhaps there had still been people who continued to believe in Asura even after his death. Nevertheless, he had definitely been forgotten. He had been completely erased from the myths.

[Annihilation energy.]

Asura used his own body as a weapon to neutralize Grid’s attack. This ended up being disadvantageous and forcing him on the defensive, so he smiled bitterly.

[Truly a great power. Now that I have this, I can also erase many myths from the world.]

Why did he forget his past life? Asura was obsessed with this question not because he wanted to know the truth. He wasn’t interested in getting revenge for his past life. He just wanted to kill other gods with the same method he had been subjected to.

Why?

[Grid, I am the God of Fighting, so I understand everything about struggling. I know that there is no eternal victor. The only exception—]

Boom, booom!!

[...is Chiyou.]

Asura wounds regenerated incredibly fast. He reverted to his original form. The razor blades were gone and his skin was once again smooth. He admitted that it was too much of a disadvantage to maintain Weapon Breaker.

[The Martial God is invincible. I noticed it last time when we were fighting.]

Purple energy rose from Asura like smoke. It was Annihilation energy.

[That duel you watched. Just as I learned the Martial God’s techniques, the Martial God also learned mine. No, it was more than that. He was already seeing through my habits. The proof is that I was caught off guard and failed to seriously injure him despite using his techniques to launch a surprise counterattack. No matter how many times I look back on it, his response was perfect.]

The Annihilation energy rising from Asura like smoke condensed into snowflakes, hardening. He had already learned how to use the energy he just copied. He was just like a player learning an ability by looking at its skill information. Martial God Chiyou’s ability to make even this monster feel humble was once again amazing.

[To be honest, I was worried. No matter how strong I became, I wouldn’t be able to compete with the Martial God. I became so anxious to challenge him that I suddenly felt afraid.]

The God of Fighting existed to fight. Baal had been obsessed with the birth of Asura because he believed Asura would fight and fight until the world was destroyed. Indeed, Asura wouldn’t give up even if the opponent was stronger than him. He would retreat for a while, but he would eventually try again.
