When a God of Destruction Was Reincarnated in Tensura:

Chapter 156: Greed



As Artemis looked around the ruined cardinal world, his chaotic energy pulsed violently, distorting the very fabric of reality. The ground was scorched, the skies torn apart, and the faint echoes of life extinguished. He smirked, his crimson eyes glowing with satisfaction.

"Finally, a blank canvas. No imperfections, no resistance, no foolish mortals to defy me. Now, it is time to erase this pitiful world and rebuild perfection in my image."

He raised his hand, and the air itself screamed in agony. Chaotic energy surged upward, creating a swirling vortex of annihilation. The ground beneath him disintegrated into nothingness, the cracks in reality spreading like veins as he prepared to unleash his final blow to obliterate the cardinal world.

But just as he was about to act, the air shifted, and a powerful, golden light cut through the chaos. A serene yet overwhelming aura descended upon the scene, causing Artemis to pause.

Out of the light stepped Beerus, the God of Destruction, flanked by his five wives: Zerna, Erza, Velzar, Beta, and Delta. They appeared unbothered by the chaos around them, their presence exuding calm authority. Artemis's smirk faded slightly as he turned to face the newcomers.

Artemis: (his voice low and dripping with venom)

"So... you've come at last, Beerus. Tell me, is this the part where you attempt to lecture me about morality or some other drivel?"

Beerus: (arms crossed, his expression indifferent)

"Lecture you? Oh no, I wouldn't waste my time. I'm just here to see if you're actually worth the trouble."

Artemis: (grinning, his chaotic energy flaring around him)

"Trouble? You think you can stop me? I've destroyed everything in this world! What's left to save? The only thing standing is me!"

Beerus: (raising an eyebrow, his tone calm but condescending)

"Destroyed everything? Impressive. But tell me, Artemis... now that you've won, what's next? What's the point of ruling over ashes?"

Artemis: (his grin faltering for a moment before he sneered)

"The point is perfection! I will build a flawless world, free of weakness and imperfection. A true utopia!"

Beerus: (chuckling softly, shaking his head)

"Perfection? You sound like every other egomaniac I've dealt with over the eons. Let me guess—you think destroying everything makes you a god?"

Artemis: (scowling, his chaotic aura surging violently)

"You wouldn't understand, Beerus! You've always been content with mediocrity, watching over a flawed universe. I am the pinnacle of existence!"

Zerna: (stepping forward, her golden eyes narrowing)

"The pinnacle? You're nothing but a child throwing a tantrum because the world didn't bow to you. True power doesn't come from destruction alone."

Velzar: (smiling faintly, her voice like ice)

"And for someone who claims to be a god, you seem awfully insecure. Do you even know what you're doing, Artemis?"

Artemis: (snarling, his chaotic energy exploding outward)

"Enough! I've had enough of your arrogance! If you think you can stop me, then try!"

The tension was palpable as Artemis's chaotic energy clashed with the calm, destructive presence of Beerus and his wives. The void around them trembled, unable to contain the sheer power. Artemis raised his hand, summoning a massive sphere of chaotic energy. It pulsated violently, radiating death and destruction on a scale that dwarfed everything else.

Artemis: (his voice booming)

"Behold! The power of a true god! Chaos incarnate!"

Beerus: (still calm, his aura flickering with destructive energy)

"A true god? If that's what you call this, I'm disappointed."

As Artemis hurled the chaotic sphere toward Beerus, the force of the attack tore through the void, splitting the fabric of reality itself. Beerus remained still, raising a single hand to meet the attack.

Zerna: (to Beerus, her tone playful)

"Don't toy with him too much, darling. We don't want him thinking he's a real threat."

Erza: (smiling faintly, her voice cold)

"Let him struggle a little. It's entertaining to watch him flail."

Beerus smirked as he caught the massive sphere of chaos with a single hand, the energy crackling violently against his palm. With a flick of his wrist, the sphere disintegrated into harmless particles.

Artemis: (staggering back, his eyes wide with disbelief)

"Impossible... That was my strongest attack!"

Beerus: (smirking, his golden eyes narrowing)

"Strongest? Oh, Artemis, you really are a disappointment. Let me show you how it's done."

With a snap of his fingers, Beerus unleashed a wave of destructive energy that raced toward Artemis, forcing him to leap back. The ground beneath Artemis crumbled into nothingness as the energy passed.

Artemis: (gritting his teeth, his chaotic aura flaring even brighter)

"You think this is over? I haven't even begun to show you my true power!"

As he roared, Artemis unleashed a surge of chaotic energy that enveloped him, transforming his form. His body grew larger, his aura more menacing, and his power surged to unimaginable heights.

Artemis: (laughing maniacally)

"Now, Beerus, let's see how you fare against a true god!"

Beerus: (unimpressed, his voice calm)

"True god, huh? Fine. Show me what you've got. But don't cry when it's over."

As Artemis charged at Beerus, the battle of gods began, shaking the very fabric of existence itself.
