Aeris here, desu!

Second chapter of this week! Can you believe it?! I'm writing more than a chapter in 3 weeks! I am still lazy though. *stare at pile of unsorted clothes in closet and pile of unfolded clothes on sofa* I'll just go get a blanket to cover that up…

And now, I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, the final conclusion to this little arc! The final battle! A goddess versus a god!

Chapter 3: The Goddess Versus The God!

"Argh!" Sliced by a large silver blade, glowing with mystical and pure energy, Aer yelled out in pain as he was knocked back in the air, his eyes now glowing a light lavender.

"A mere human, surviving Jupiter's Hell? This chance, you have grasped the one in a septendecillion chance, mongrel. But you aggravated me. How foolish of you, to waste your pathetic life like this," Aer could only smirk as lightning surrounded his body, "You have provoked me, and I shall fight back with all my power."

After saying that, Aer's body glowed a bright yellow, and seemed to transcend what he had already become. Retaining mostly the same appearance, his ponytail had split into two, both shaped like thunderbolts, with a ball of lightning at each tip.

"A human transcending the barriers between mortals and gods. This is something new, I must say," The attacker simply stated calmly, holding her blade confidently, bracing for Aer's next attack, she lifted her sword slightly, shouting out, "I will defeat you!"

"Hah, surely you jest. A mortal? Defeating a god?" Aer snickered at the female's declaration, "You overestimate yourself."

"I am an angel of divinity. I will not allow you to continue with your destruction, however divine you might be," She stated, spreading her wings wide, her blade pointed at Aer's chest, and declared once again, "I will defeat you. My name is Hotaria Kanvenei, and I am a Fallen Angel who will defeat you."

"A fallen angel? This is getting interesting!" Aer laughed heartily as a thunderbolt formed in his grasp, sparks flying everywhere.

Soon after, Hotaria charged forward, piercing her blade into Aer's lightning barrier with no hesitation evident in her heart.

"Darkness has fogged your mind, corrupted your soul. Soothe your anger, God King Jupiter," Hotaria confidently demanded, only to be thrown off Aer's barrier, due to it overcharging itself.

"A lowly angel like you can never command me," Holding the thunderbolt as if it was a staff, Aer pointed it toward Hotaria, forming a magic circle, shooting out countless charges of lightning toward the angel, who flew at full speeds to dodge the attacks.

"Garnet Desire!" Hotaria shouted out, her wings seemed to form a shield around herself, a crystal-like shield that reflected the thunderbolts.

"A mere angel, dreaming to defeat me, simply laughable," Aer snickered, breaking the crimson red shield with a hit from his Lightning Greatblade.

"Please. I do not wish to completely immobilise you. Stand down, Jupiter," Hotaria simply said, as Aer's blade was countered with Hotaria's own. Though they seemed to be at equal strength, the storm only grew stronger, thunder and lightning raging above their heads, stronger and stronger, the rumbling grew.

"No?" Hotaria asked, flying away from the hostile God. Knowing of Aer's ever growing power, she quickly u-turned, Aer being surprised, and raised her hands to face Aer.

"Voodoo," Hotaria chanted the first word of her spell, a magic circle forming between her hands.

"Code," Chanting the second word, Aer then realised why Hotaria was so confident. And he also realised that this was her second time using it within his rampage. Once he had casted Jupiter's Underworld, Hotaria had casted this spell to avoid being doomed. With the spell, she sealed the power of the thunderbolts around her, saving her, and only her.

"Stop!" Aer shouted, but was too late, as Hotaria chanted the final word.

"Seal."

Uncountable amounts of paper flew out of the magic circle as it increased in size, circling around Aer. Clasping her hands together, Hotaria made the alarmingly increasing pieces of paper stick to Aer's body, surrounding him, and eventually, covered his whole body.

With a 'poof', Aer had turned into a piece of paper, powerless and trapped. His body, soul and strength had been sealed into single piece of paper, only centimetres wide and tall. On the piece of paper, there was a single seal. Tearing the paper would release Aer from the paper.

Sighing, Hotaria saw as all the razed buildings around her rebuilt themselves, as if time was reversing. In a moment, the downed participants rose from their positions as if they had been in a slumber, no pain. And in another moment, all the participants, including the piece of paper containing Aer, were teleported back to the stadium. Although Aer was defeated, Rising Wing still won, and all that had transpired that day was reported to the council.

~3 weeks later~

"It feels so good to be back at the guild…" Aer, who had been in lockdown for the three weeks since the Grand Magic Games, sunk himself to the wooden table, seeming to be hugging it.

"Don't ever pull a stunt like that," Kirisa angrily demanded, hitting Aer on his head, earning her a disappointed mewl.

"Yes, don't semi-kill me like that," Naftis said, clearly upset at what Aer did during the Grand Magic Games. His rash actions even earned their guild a warning from the Magic Council.

"Fine…" Aer stood up as he said that, walking to the Jobs Board…..

"You're not allowed to do jobs for the next month," Kirisa commented and returned to her office, leaving a snorting Naftis and an upset Aeris behind.

"Then what am I supposed to do?" Aer sighed deeply, returning to the seat.

"Naftis, let's g-

"No," Naftis simply said before walking to the Jobs Board to apply for one without Aer.

"You're mocking me, aren't you," Aer glared at Naftis, returned with a command for the former to stay and wait for the latter.

How was thaaat?

I know it's very short but eh. I couldn't come up with ideas to continue the fight. Don't worry, next chapter, we're going back into action with Ars!
