The gods were in high spirits following Nox’s victory over Napoleon. The thrill of victory coursed through their veins, a mix of triumph and relief. They gathered in their opulent hall, discussing the next combatant to face the humans. Zeus, with his commanding presence, was about to select another god when Amaterasu, the radiant goddess of the sun, stepped forward.

“I will be the next to fight,” Amaterasu declared, her voice calm yet resolute.

Zeus frowned, his gaze scrutinizing her. “Amaterasu, you are known for your compassion. Why do you volunteer for this battle? Can we trust that you will not betray us?”

Amaterasu met his gaze steadily, her eyes unwavering. “I assure you, Zeus, I will fight with all my might. But understand this: even if the humans lose this tournament, I will stand to defend them. They deserve a chance to prove their worth.”

The gods exchanged glances, some smirking at her words. Her commitment to humanity was well known, but her strength was undeniable. Zeus nodded, albeit with a hint of skepticism. “Very well, Amaterasu. You will be our next combatant.”

At Eirene’s secluded sanctuary, the atmosphere was somber. The recent loss weighed heavily on everyone, but Eirene knew that the next match would bring a new challenge. She had already chosen the next human combatant, and the choice was as strategic as it was dark. A mixture of sorrow and mischievousness played on her face as she contemplated the upcoming battle.

Knowing that the next god would be Amaterasu, Eirene had chosen a combatant uniquely suited for such a match: Jack the Ripper. The infamous figure of Victorian London, known for his dark, twisted nature and maniacal mind, was an unusual but potentially effective choice.

Eirene made her way to the shadowy streets where Jack the Ripper lurked. The air was thick with fog, the alleyways dimly lit by flickering gas lamps. Jack emerged from the shadows, his eyes gleaming with a twisted light. His presence was both menacing and strangely elegant, a figure of macabre fascination.

“Jack,” Eirene called out, her voice steady. “You are the next combatant. You will face Amaterasu.”

Jack’s lips curled into a sinister smile. “Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun. How delightful. It will be an exquisite dance, won’t it?”

Eirene nodded, her expression firm. “You must fight with everything you have. The fate of humanity rests on your shoulders.”

Jack stepped closer, his movements smooth and deliberate. “Of course, my dear Eirene. I relish the opportunity to show the gods what true darkness can do. Their radiant light will be but a flicker in the night.”

His words sent a chill through Eirene, but she stood her ground. “Remember, Jack, this is more than just a game. This is a battle for survival.”
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYtErn8dVE
Jack’s eyes glinted with a maniacal fervor. “Survival is an art I am well acquainted with. I shall carve my way through the light, leaving a trail of darkness in my wake.”

Both combatants prepared for the impending battle, their minds focused and determined. Amaterasu, in her radiant palace, drew upon her inner strength, ready to shine her light against the darkness. Jack, in the shadows of the city, sharpened his blades and his wits, his mind a labyrinth of cunning and cruelty.

In the celestial hall, the gods observed with a mix of curiosity and anticipation. They knew that Amaterasu’s light was powerful, but Jack’s darkness was an unpredictable and dangerous force.
