Sasaki Kojiro time-

Oh, since this book will be following the Nier Automata storyline, and Chen is a Scanner... I'm kinda thinking about something when this book reaches Route C-

Tbh I'm not too sure of what'll be done by that time, but we'll get there soon enough-

Not proof read-

- A God has fallen to Humanity ... -

In the face of that inconceivable reality...

Every God within the stands were completely quiet at what had happened.

They were completely speechless.

Ares could only stare in disbelief.
Shiva was frozen, his eyes wide as he stared at Poseidon's corpse.
Aphrodite could feel the frown flooding her face.

The Gods... silently gazed down.

Loki's expression had shifted to one of grim disbelief.
Hermes' own face had darkened and overshadowed.
Odin slowly tilted his head back while Huginn and Muninn stayed silent.

Their sights had turned to Kojiro, who had stared up at the sky with a faint smile over his face.

Poseidon's corpse had started to crack into green shards before shattering into the sky.

The swordsman had watched the remains of the blond that had disappeared into the sky.

"Who... could have foreseen this...? Finally... In the third battle of Ragnarok... Humanity has stolen victory from the grasp of the Gods!!"

Humans had cheered for his win, as the Gods had hung their heads from the dishonor.

"Y-You're fucking kidding me..."
"Poseidon has really..."
"How... How could this happen?"

"Yes... Yes..." Göll smiled. She had then screamed along with Humanity, cheering while Kojiro had gently bowed towards the swordsmen he had went against in the past.

The male had then softly sighed. "So damn loud..." He mumbled, chuckling while he gently scratched the side of his face. "It's my very first win.... Can't you let it soak in a little first...?" Yet, his words had went unheard by Humanity, who had continued to cheer.

(... O Gods... Feast your eyes... This... is Humanity's potential!! -Brunhilde)

"... No way..." Muninn muttered.
"A God really lost to a-" Huginn was cut off when Odin had crushed the arm of his chair.
The two crows looked at him with concern, but also knowledge of why he was like this.

"Aww man..." Loki muttered, ruffling his hair repeatedly. "This... is a real shitty excuse for a joke..." He mumbled.

(Y/n) softly turned to the entrance of the area, now leaving as Adam looked towards them, still smiling softly. Chen had kept cheering, with Lü Bu looking back at them.

A walkway had then formed into the tunnel. "I gotta walk back, eh...? Guess it's better than nothing, though..." He sighed, slowly falling back. "That one really... took its toll on me..." He released his grip on his blade, allowing for it to return to its normal form. "Kojiro... Keep it together!" Hrist called out, catching him. "Are you alright?" She softly questioned. Kojiro softly grinned. "Yeah... Looks like I gotta rely on you for everything, Miss Monohoshizao..." He chuckled.
