The arena basked in a profound silence as Rimuru Tempest emerged victorious over Ares, the once-indomitable God of War. Rimuru, in his azure slime form, stood amidst the aftermath of their titanic clash, his demeanor a blend of humility and determination.
The humans in the alliance erupted into cheers, their voices ringing with newfound fervor. They saw in Rimuru a symbol of unity and strength, a living testament to the potential for friendship and cooperation between different worlds.
The Gods and Valkyries, however, were left in a state of contemplation. The defeat of Ares, a God known for his unwavering dedication to battle, raised questions about the very nature of power and conflict.
As the cheers and applause gradually subsided, Rimuru addressed the arena's inhabitants, his voice carrying a sense of humility and unity. "The battles we have faced in this tournament have been trials of strength, but they have also been tests of character. It is not just power that defines us but the bonds we form with one another."
His words resonated deeply with those present. The alliance of humans and divine beings had grown stronger with each passing battle, and Rimuru had become a beacon of hope, a living embodiment of the power of friendship.
But the respite was brief, for the next opponent was revealed to be none other than Anubis, the enigmatic God of the Underworld. Anubis appeared as a figure cloaked in darkness, his canine head adorned with an intricately decorated headdress. He wielded a staff adorned with symbols of life and death.
Anubis was known for his mastery over the balance between life and death, and his abilities were shrouded in mystery. As he stepped into the arena, a palpable aura of solemnity and reverence filled the air.
Rimuru, always composed and ready for the next challenge, regarded Anubis with a respectful nod. He knew that facing the God of the Underworld would require not just physical prowess but also a deep understanding of the delicate balance of life and death.
The battle began, and Anubis showcased his formidable powers. He summoned ethereal spirits that swirled around him, their haunting presence casting an eerie light over the arena. With a wave of his staff, Anubis sent the spirits charging toward Rimuru, their spectral forms reaching out to drain his energy.
Rimuru, undeterred, summoned his own elemental spirits—beings of water, fire, and wind. These ethereal entities clashed with Anubis's spirits, creating a dazzling display of elemental warfare. The arena resonated with the clash of energies as the two beings grappled for control.
Amidst the ethereal chaos, Anubis attempted to invoke the powers of death, unleashing a chilling wave of darkness that threatened to consume Rimuru. But Rimuru's will and determination shone brightly. He transformed his slime form into a radiant, purifying light that repelled the encroaching darkness.
The audience watched in astonishment as Rimuru's transformation negated the powers of death, leaving Anubis momentarily stunned. It was a testament to Rimuru's ability to adapt and overcome even the most formidable of challenges.
With renewed resolve, Rimuru unleashed a torrent of elemental energies, overwhelming Anubis's spirits and leaving the God of the Underworld on the defensive. Anubis, sensing the impending defeat, made a surprising decision.
He lowered his staff and spoke with a voice filled with solemnity. "I yield," Anubis conceded, his canine head bowing in acknowledgment. "Your understanding of the balance between life and death is profound, Rimuru Tempest. I have witnessed the strength of your character."
The arena fell into a hushed silence as Rimuru, ever the embodiment of compassion, approached Anubis. He extended a tendril of his slime form in a gesture of respect, offering his hand to the defeated God.
Anubis accepted Rimuru's hand, and in that moment, a profound understanding passed between them. It was a symbol of unity and respect, transcending the boundaries of mortal and divine.
As Chapter 10 came to a close, Rimuru's journey in the "Record of Ragnarok" tournament had not only showcased his growing strength but had also emphasized the importance of friendship, respect, and understanding. The alliance between humans and divine beings had evolved into something more profound, setting the stage for even greater challenges and revelations in the ongoing tournament.
