Chapter 169 What's Needed To Tame A Goddess

As the rocks broke the sound barrier and hurtled directly toward Akun, the air crackling with their tremendous speed, a moment of impending impact hung in the air. Then, something extraordinary happened. As each rock entered the sphere of purple energy enveloping Akun, their velocity came to a sudden halt, and they fell to the ground, their deadly momentum extinguished in an instant.

Chrono Nexus watched in astonishment, her divine gaze locked on the scene. Her thoughts raced as she grappled with the implications of this mysterious phenomenon. Inwardly, she mused, "What did he do to neutralize my †Authority†?"

She quickly activated her all-seeing eyes, attempting to discern the nature of the purple energy that surrounded Akun, but to her surprise, it remained inscrutable. The enigmatic aura that enveloped him defied her attempts to unveil its secrets. As she pondered further, a bead of sweat formed and trickled down the side of her cheek.

It was becoming evident that Akun's powers were far more complex and formidable than she had initially anticipated.

Akun's chuckle reverberated through the desolate landscape as he declared, "Guess it's my turn to shine." In an instant, he unleashed his power, propelling himself forward with such ferocity that the ground beneath him caved in, creating a massive crater where he had previously stood. The earth shuddered under the sheer force of his acceleration as he surged forward, ready to face the goddess.

As Akun closed in, Chrono Nexus pondered inwardly, "How can an †Authority† exist that negates other Authorities? Such power is simply disastrous, and I must put an end to it by any means necessary." With That In mind, she propelled herself forward, accelerating her speed to face the challenge that Akun's mysterious †Authority† presented.

In the midst of their confrontation, as the goddess of time came into contact with the mysterious purple energy emanating from Akun, she felt a sudden weakness wash over her. Tripping and falling to the floor, she clutched her head in distress, mumbling aloud, "What happened? All my strength felt like it was suddenly siphoned off."

Akun, looking down at her, couldn't resist a taunting smile. He remarked, "Guess that's what happens when you get arrogant." Swiftly, before the goddess of time could react, he grasped her by her hair and turned her to face him. The tables had turned in this cosmic battle, and it was clear that Akun now held the upper hand.

Chrono Nexus struggled to break free from Akun's relentless grip on her hair, but her once-almighty strength had been drained, leaving her powerless. In her vulnerable state, she couldn't free herself.

Confused by the sudden failure, Akun muttered to himself, "The heck, you can't be serious?"

The system's response followed promptly: [To succeed in taming, the player must first reduce the target's high mental fortitude.]

Akun refocused his attention on Chrono Nexus, bringing her closer to him. With his other hand, the one that had initially released the chain, he gently tilted her jaw upward. He spoke with a smug tone, "You seem to be quite the tough cookie, but that won't change the inevitable. It's time for you to learn your place."

Chrono Nexus, defiant and unyielding, spat on Akun's face. She declared with steeled resolve, "I will never yield. Try as you might, you will never break my spirit."

Akun's response was unexpected, as he replied with a smug tone, "Guess that's a challenge. Challenge accepted." Enjoy new adventures at empire

Suddenly, Akun flung the goddess to the earth, creating a massive crater upon impact. Chrono Nexus, weakened and in pain, coughed up blood as her crash into the ground proved more agonizing than she had ever experienced.

Struggling to get back on her feet, Chrono Nexus heard Akun's voice cutting through her pain. He said, "The most likely reason the skill failed is because you still see yourself in a much higher position than me, but there are a thousand ways to fix that. The ones I prefer are pain and embarrassment."

Before Chrono Nexus could fully grasp Akun's intentions, he positioned himself atop her back, turning her into his makeshift chair. With a smug demeanor, he added, "I just have to shatter that pride of yours."

Chrono Nexus couldn't believe what Akun was doing. "How dare you!" she yelled. She struggled to muster the strength to free herself from this humiliating situation. However, due to Akun's †Authority†, she was powerless. She had been forced into becoming a makeshift chair, and it appeared that this embarrassing scenario would not be ending anytime soon.
