Before anyone realized it, another day had passed.
Just as he had vowed, Odin emerged victorious over his Divine Chosen adversary, ascending to become the first Fake God of the human race.
According to Odin's own account, the Divine Chosen named Auxis that appeared during his God Rank Trial wasn't truly a living being, but rather an external manifestation of the trial's inner will — a test woven from his own spirit and fear.
As the battle dragged on, the appearance of Auxis constantly changed, adapting to counter Odin's strengths.
Each transformation revealed new techniques and domains designed to suppress him.
It was a brutal, soul-scorching fight.
But Odin's foundation was solid.
His combat instincts were refined, his will unshakable.
No matter how much the trial shifted to crush him, he broke through each phase with sheer determination, defying despair again and again.
