Rimuru's Ascendance: Conquest in Ragnarok

Chapter 2: The Godly Challenge

The cosmic arena crackled with anticipation as Rimuru Tempest, the enigmatic champion summoned from another world, faced off against Thor, the God of Thunder. The air was electric with tension, and the audience of Gods and Valkyries leaned forward in their celestial seats, eager to witness this extraordinary clash.

Thor, with his chiseled physique and bristling red beard, brandished Mjölnir, his mighty hammer. Bolts of lightning danced around him, emphasizing the godly power that coursed through his veins. He grinned confidently, his azure eyes fixed on Rimuru, who stood serenely, a blue silhouette against the cosmic backdrop.

"Prepare yourself, outsider," Thor boomed, his voice echoing like thunder through the arena. "You stand before the God of Thunder, and I shall test your worthiness."

Rimuru responded with a nod, his golden eyes locked onto Thor's. "I am ready, Thor. Show me the power of a God."

Without further ado, Thor lunged forward with incredible speed, Mjölnir raised high, ready to strike. The ground quaked beneath him as he swung the hammer downward, releasing a torrent of lightning that streaked toward Rimuru. But the slime champion was no ordinary opponent.

With a casual wave of his hand, Rimuru conjured a barrier of swirling blue energy. The lightning struck the shield, crackling and dissipating harmlessly into the ether. The audience gasped in amazement as Rimuru calmly lowered his hand, the barrier fading away.

Thor's eyes widened in surprise, but he wasted no time. He unleashed a barrage of lightning strikes, each more ferocious than the last. Rimuru's evasive movements were fluid and precise, a dance of azure light as he avoided the electrifying onslaught.

The valkyries in the audience exchanged astonished glances. Thor was known for his devastating power, and yet Rimuru evaded his attacks effortlessly. It was a display of speed and agility that rivaled the finest warriors of Valhalla.

With a swift motion, Rimuru closed the distance between them, moving so quickly that Thor struggled to react. He delivered a series of rapid strikes, each one landing with pinpoint accuracy. Thor grunted as he staggered back, the impact of Rimuru's blows taking their toll.

But Thor was not one to be underestimated. With a bellow of rage, he unleashed a shockwave of thunderous energy, creating a shockwave that sent Rimuru hurtling backward. The slime champion crashed into the arena floor, leaving a small crater in his wake.

The audience roared with approval, impressed by Thor's resilience and power. It seemed that Rimuru's initial advantage might have been short-lived.

However, Rimuru rose from the dust, his form undamaged by the impact. He brushed himself off with an air of nonchalance, a smirk playing across his lips. "Is that all you've got, Thor?"

The God of Thunder frowned, his frustration growing evident. He charged once more, his attacks becoming more frenzied. Rimuru, however, remained composed. He sidestepped Thor's strikes with ease, his movements a mesmerizing dance of evasion.

Then, in a sudden burst of speed, Rimuru closed the gap and delivered a single, precise strike to Thor's chest. The impact sent shockwaves through the God's body, and he staggered back, clutching his chest in disbelief.

The arena fell silent as Thor, wide-eyed, realized that he had been defeated. Rimuru's attack had been so swift and precise that Thor had barely registered the blow until the pain coursed through him. It was a testament to the champion's incredible speed and precision.

With a weary smile, Thor lowered Mjölnir and nodded in defeat. "You are a formidable opponent, Rimuru Tempest. I concede."

Rimuru inclined his head respectfully. "Thank you for the battle, Thor. It was an honor to face a God of your caliber."
<<< This was said just so thor doesn't feel very bad about his defeat >>>

The crowd erupted into applause, a mix of astonishment and respect for the otherworldly champion. Rimuru had not only defeated Thor but had done so with a display of skill and composure that few could match.

Chapter 2 had witnessed Rimuru's first battle in the arena of Ragnarok, where he faced the formidable God of Thunder, Thor. Rimuru's incredible speed and precision had left the Gods and Valkyries in awe, setting the stage for more challenges to come in the tournament.
