God Simulator: The Goddesses In The Simulation Are All Real

Chapter 52: Phantom Reaper Saves The Magical Girl And The Mecha Driver

"Bull Rush!"

The mechanical bull charged forward, trampling over several lackeys with its immense speed and power, but even that wasn't enough to tip the scales.

Despite their efforts, Magia Fleur and Aris were slowly being overwhelmed.

Black tentacles lashed out from every direction, wrapping around their arms and legs, forcing them to retreat and defend.

And yet, the leader of the lackeys remained stationary, his cold gaze fixed on the scene.

Linsley narrowed his eyes, growing more impatient. "He's just waiting... letting them tire themselves out. Figures."

As he watched, his amusement began to fade, replaced by a creeping frustration.

He knew the leader was simply biding his time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Linsley, still hidden, smirked as he discreetly spread one thousand of his purple-colored, invisible tentacles throughout the area.

The air rippled slightly, but the lackeys remained unaware, oblivious to the trap he had just set.

"Let's see how you handle this, lackeys," he muttered, his fingers twitching in anticipation.

Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Magia Fleur and Aris were struggling to break free from the relentless barrage of black tentacles wrapped around their limbs.

Aris grunted, his mecha suit sparking as he slashed at the tendrils with his mechanical arms.

"Magia Fleur, hang in there!" he shouted, desperation creeping into his voice. "We can't let these bastards capture us!"

"I'm trying!" Magia Fleur called back, her voice strained.

She twirled her wand, sending sharp petals flying through the air, slicing through the tentacles that threatened to overwhelm them. "Floral Blade!"

The tentacles recoiled, severed by the glowing petals, but for every one they cut down, more emerged from the lackeys' bodies.

"We need to retreat and regroup!" Aris urged, his mecha form shifting back to humanoid mode as he fired another volley of light bullets at the advancing lackeys. "We're too outnumbered!"

They fought valiantly, managing to kill several of the weaker lackeys, but their energy was dwindling fast.

Aris's eyes widened in horror as the tentacles latched onto his suit, sending a wave of disruptive energy through its systems. Alarms blared inside the cockpit, warning him that the self-destruct sequence had been halted.

"No! Damn you!" Aris roared, frantically trying to reinitiate the sequence, but it was useless.

The leader's tentacles had completely disabled his ability to detonate.

The leader smirked, his voice dripping with condescension. "You really thought I'd let you blow yourselves up? Mecha drivers are always so dramatic. But I've come prepared for exactly that reason."

Magia Fleur, bound by the tentacles, stared helplessly as the situation became increasingly dire.

"Aris..." she whispered, fear and despair filling her eyes.

The leader chuckled darkly, his icy gaze fixed on the two heroes as they lay defeated. "Now, let's see how long you two can last before you beg for mercy."

Suddenly, before the leader could revel further in his sadistic plans, invisible tentacles lashed out, swift and precise. They tore through the black tendrils binding Magia Fleur and Aris, ripping them apart like fragile threads.

"What—?" the leader barely managed to react when a hundred more invisible tentacles shot out from the shadows.

In an instant, the tentacles coiled around the other outer god lackeys, sealing their movements entirely. Their powers were forcibly negated, causing their summoned black tentacles to disappear in an instant, leaving them defenseless.

Linsley, still unseen, smirked as the green glow of drained life energy began to gather above his right palm, forming into a bright orb of light.

The once-powerful lackeys, now limp and withered like dried husks, crumbled to the ground.

He split the green orb in two, extending both halves toward Magia Fleur and Aris.

As soon as the light touched Magia Fleur and Aris, their wounds began to heal rapidly, the energy revitalizing them as if they had never been injured in the first place.

Magia Fleur's eyes fluttered open, her vision clearing as she realized who had saved them. "Linley..." she whispered in relief, recognizing the Phantom Reaper. "Thank you."

Aris, slowly getting back on his feet, nodded in gratitude as well. "You saved our lives. Thanks."

Linsley's smirk deepened, though he remained quiet, his attention shifting to the only enemy left standing: the leader of the outer god lackeys.

The leader's face contorted with fury as he witnessed his soldiers reduced to lifeless husks.

His rage boiled over, his voice trembling with venomous hatred. "You... insignificant ant!" he spat. "How dare you defy the will of the Outer God! You think you can stand against us and live?"
