Loser to Winner

" he did it!" shouted one of the Goddess.

" he finally disarmed the human!" shouted another God.

" no doubt he is the God of God!" shouted another God.

" GOG!" shouted another God.

" GOG! GOG! GOG!" the Gods and Goddess cheering for Poseidon, this went on for a few more seconds before Poseidon peered behind him with his eyes glaring at the audience as they saw his terrifying glare and stopped cheering. He then turned his attention to Sasaki.

" why did you want them to stop? They're cheering for you right? They're your friends right? Don't you want them to cheer for your battle?" asked Sasaki who was confused on why Poseidon scared the crowd. Poseidon looked at her with the same dull expression as before responding. 

" Unlike you humans, you are nothing but small fishes needing help from others but us Gods don't need anyone by their side, I'm guessing by your title, you make many mistake and lose many times, it's no surprise you humans are feeble and weak unlike us Gods who are divine beings. We don't need anyone's help, I don't need anyone's help" said Poseidon. Sasaki only stared at him with a serious expression with a glare and her eyes squinting.

' is this guy for real now? It seems like most Gods are too prideful and this guy is no different' thought Sasaki. " it's true, I made mistakes and I didn't win any fights, yes we humans are weak" Sasaki started walking back to where the broken sword lay. " but unlike you Gods who are so confident in their ability and refuse to have any growth in both skills and abilities, we humans evolve and learn from our mistakes. You shouldn't underestimate your opponent just because you put all humans in one basket, naming us all being 'feeble and weak' and think we are some 'small fish', we change and learn from our mistakes. We help each other grow and be a better version of ourselves" she picked up the blade pointing it at Poseidon with her left hand bleeding from the steel sharpness. " But it's not like you would even understand you handsome bastard!" ' Volundr!' the blade glowed green as it transformed into a second sword. 

" that's amazing! She's able to have a second sword now!" said Goll with excitement. 

" it is true since the name Hrist have two meanings, one is called 'the trembling one' and the other ' the anger one' so it is possible since he as two personality in one" said Brunhilde. 

" I'm just glad brother Hrist is ok" said Goll relieved that her older brother is alright. 

Sasaki now stood holding one sword in both hands as she is ready to face Poseidon again. 


Sasaki's POV

I still remembered the dojo that I used to go to for training. There were only men in that dojo learning how to be a swordsman. I begged the master to let me join the dojo to which he hesitantly agreed after I pestered him for a while. I was around 12 years old when this happen and at that time, my body was still developing and I was still skinny and lean so the men in that dojo didn't take me seriously and treated me like glass that will break at any moment. I think it's either because of my skinny body or me being female. 

I did challenged the instructor to which obviously, I lost and I immediately surrendered. 

' I surrender!' I said after he disarmed the wooden sword from my hands as I held my hands up. 

' why did you surrender? Are you scared?' he said. 

' no it's not good for my future prospect anyway plus I need some training done' 

' you know Sasaki, you don't need to become a swordsman, just go and enjoy life, get married even and have children' said the instructor with a sorry face. 

I rolled my eyes and scoffed. Why do these men think that I need to get married to a man and have him protect me while I can protect myself? I don't need to get married to be happy. I'm perfectly happy training with the sword and I am enjoying my life now. I just need a different perspective on how to win this fight against my instructor.

' no. I don't need to get married plus I am happy training and I want to become a swordswomen' I responded. I walked out of the dojo still hearing some of the male students talking about me and how I'm even allowed at the dojo and even train with them. 

I still hear some women in the village whispering about me about how abnormal I am for trying to be a swordsman and train. Some even said I need to know how to cook and clean as well as be a perfect housewife since that's what I'm supposed to do before getting married to someone. I simply rolled by eyes, I know how to cook and clean and I can take care of myself just fine! 

I hung out in the forest observing my surroundings. I saw several animals and try to copy them. I even hunt some of the animals for me to eat as well as observe my surroundings. I trained in the forest to gain more stamina as well as envision how my fight with the instructor can lead me to my victory. It was nice and peaceful. I did this for 6 months before coming back to the dojo. 

From everyone's reaction, it seems like I changed a bit. Some of the men commented saying I look more taller as well as more muscular. Well I guess training and hunting in the forest does change my appearance a bit. 

' hey can I see the master? I want to challenge him to a fight' I said. 

' hey Sasaki, let's have a fight now, I wanna see how far you have come since we didn't see you for 6 months' the instructor said. 

' no thanks, I've already know how to beat you and I already can in my mind' I said. The instructor was about to attack before I raised my hand. For some reason, my aura caused him to stumble back. 

' I surrender' the instructor said. 

' my dear Sasaki, you have been gone for a while, we got worried' said the master. 

' sorry for worrying you master, but please' I bowed down. 'please grant me a fight' 

' hmm... very well' the master took the wooden sword and we started the fight. 

I lost but it didn't bring me down though. I decided to go to the forest to train myself, exercising to gain stamina and imagining how the fight with the master needs to go, memorizing and analyzing his movements. I chopped down some wood for the small cabin I built from the same wood. 

It's been about a few years now and I was outside, using my wooden sword to practice my strike before I saw an old man approaching. I immediately recognize him as the master. 

' ah! Master! Your here' I said overjoyed. I notice he got older and I also noticed he got blind. 'how are you?'

'other then old age, it's fine Sasaki' 

' do you want some tea? I have some in here' as I lead him to the cabin. 

Once he entered, I can see that he can sense that I have been training considering that there are several sword markings on the walls all big, medium and small. 

' I can see that your still training Sasaki, I'm impress, you really have surpassed me considering I can sense you have been training for the last few years I didn't see you' the master said. 

' thank you master, please let me serve you a cup of tea' I took out the tea set as I settled down some tea. He took a small sip of it ' is it ok?' I wasn't good at making tea since I sometimes didn't know the portions needed. 

' it's not the worse but tolerable, what will you do after this Sasaki?' 

' oh, I want to go travel and challenge more swordsman of course, I want to know how to beat them' said Sasaki. 

' if that's what you wish, I wouldn't stop you my dear' said the master as he smiled at him. 

' thank you master' 

That's when I travel along the mountains and forest challenging swordsman to a fight. Some of them agreed immediately while some of them hesitated asking if I'm sure as well as trying to convince me to not fight them. But I remained stubborn and still fought them. I never won any of those battles but in my mind, I already planned out how to beat them and I consider those victories. Those swordsman are strong and fast and it gets me excited and happy learning, memorizing and analyzing those moves. 

It wasn't until I decided to challenge Musashi to a dual. 

I waiting at the top of the cliff by the ocean waiting for him. I felt a smile creep to my face excited for the dual. It wasn't until I heard a sound. It was like someone whistling. It sounded harmonic and soothing. I looked around myself and my surroundings but found no one. No one was making any whistling noise. There is no one on this mountain but me. I thought it was in my head before I heard it again. I want to find this sound, I quickly got up but suddenly, I lost balanced and fell into the waves of the ocean. 

I tried reaching the surface but the waves were too strong and that's when I heard that whistling sound. It was coming from the ocean. I looked down and saw a blurry image of someone before I lost conscious. After that, I didn't remember what happened but I felt someone grabbed my body but that was all.

The next thing I knew, I sat up and spit out the salty water out of my mouth as I looked around. I was wet and covered in sand. I looked around and saw no one. I swear I felt someone holding me and helping me back up to land. I got up and looked around, still there was no one. 

It wasn't until I saw a boat coming, I immediately recognize who it is. 

Musashi. 

After he arrived, I bowed down to him. 

' please do me the honor of fighting you' I said as I got up and took out my sword. 

' ha! If you say so women' he said as he took out his dual sword. 

I smirk as we fought. 

It was endless clashes of our swords as we both dodged each others attack as well as parried and tried attacking each other. I was able to create a cross on his forehead while there are scars around my arm and the side of my head as me and him bled out. 

After a while of our swords clashing with each other, I knew my stamina would give out and I bled out more then him as I stood a few feet away from him with me breathing heavily. 

' *huff* *huff* *huff* I surrender, or if that's what I would like to say...' I said as I smirked at him. He smirked back as we continue attacking each other. 

Finally, he used both his swords and cut my torse as I bled out. 

To be honest, I wasn't even upset I lost. Even though I died at the age 26, I wasn't upset nor angry at him. In fact, I respect him even more now since he is strong and I want to learn to keep on fighting. Even after my death, I imagined on how I would fight him again and again until I come up with the perfect strategy to beat him. 

When I heard that I am one of the candidates to fight in the Ragnarok, I was overjoyed as I can fight someone again and not a human but against a God now. I swear, I will win for humanity and show them that even humans like me can win against a God. 


Normal POV

Sasaki charged at him as she now wields two swords as she quickly started striking Poseidon. Poseidon was able to parry and block her attacks. 

' I need to be more faster and have more force in my swords!' Sasaki thought. She used all her might and started making more scars on Poseidon until his arms, torso, legs and the right side of his cheek were covered in scars as he started bleeding. Sasaki was about to use both of her swords to cut him before he dodged and jump back. 

" dad she's able to use your sword style! I can see you in her!" said Iori who is now looking at his dad, Musashi. 

" you really are the chosen from the sun, Sasaki" said Musashi as he smiled. 

Poseidon looked at his scars as he covered his left hand with his blood and used it to pull back his already cut hair as he looked at Sasaki with a smirk. She knows that it isn't nice but rather menacing but she would be lying if he didn't look handsome even sexy at the moment. Then what hit Sasaki like a brick to the face, Poseidon started whistling. Her eyes widen as she remembers that same tune and sound. 

' it's-it's that same whistling! I thought I was imagining it. Wait could it be-!' thought Sasaki as she now remembers the person who saved her from drowning and put her on that sandy land. Her eyes widen as she stared at Poseidon. "it was you wasn't it? I still remember your whistling and your the one who pulled me out of that water right?" she remembers she felt someone holding onto her with their muscular form and putting her on dry land as she barely can keep her eyes open. She remembers she wanted to thank the person who saved her but she couldn't see the person's face as the person walked back to the ocean before she closed her eyes again exhausted and cold from getting out of the ocean water. ' I knew I was saved by someone but I didn't know that it was this handsome smug bastard!' 

" I do remember putting a women back on land yes but I didn't know it was you. You've aged, well your hair have but you appearance not so much" said Poseidon as he now looks at Sasaki's large breasts. 

" Well I would've swoon and fall head over heels for you even more since you've saved me if you weren't such an arrogant smug piece of shit sorry excuse for a pervert God bastard" said Sasaki as she insulted Poseidon with a glare. 

" let's see if this arrogant smug piece of shit sorry excuse for a pervert God bastard can kill a little loser fish like you" said Poseidon as he now started attacking Sasaki as she narrowly dodged the attacks. 

" wow it seems that Sasaki is still holding on, many of the Gods seem to be scared of Poseidon, no wonder he is one of the 12 Olympian Gods" said Goll. 

" 12 you say huh? There used to be 13" said Brunhilde.  

" wait what? I didn't know that" said Goll as she looked at Brunhilde confused. 

" it's true, a long time ago, there used to be a 13th Olympian Gods who is the eldest more older then Hades, Poseidon and Zeus, his name is Adamas" said Brunhilde. 

Poseidon's POV 

I heard that Adamas, my older brother is planning to overthrow Zeus after our father's defeat. It's such a pain having him as my brother. I knew he was coming to see me and to get me on his side. Even when I was born, I never once ever looked at anyone with interest. Not even my older brother. 

' Poseidon, let's just kill Zeus and rule, besides almost all the Gods and Goddess who used to be loyal to him is now on my side' said Adamas. 

I simply look down not bother answering him. 

' hey Poseidon! Look me at you bastard!' shouted Adamas as he shoved the table away. 

' what is the point anyway? Us Gods don't need anyone nor need help unlike you who need it' I said. 

Adamas took out his weapon as he charged at me. 

I never once looked at him even as a child and growing older I never did. Even when he and I went out for drinks, I left and never took a second glance at him. 

This was the only and last time I ever look at him. I took out my trident and stabbed him through his torso as I flung his body to the wall letting him bleed to death. I didn't even regret nor left sad that he died. He deserved it anyway. I walked out of the hall and saw Hermes standing there. 

' tell everyone that there is a traitor among the Gods and I ended them' I said to Hermes. 

' of course' he said as he bowed. 

I didn't even think much of that incident nor did anyone other then Hermes and Brunhilde, who knew what happened for some reason, knew what had happened to Adamas. 


It's been centuries since that happened and I remember whistling that tune near an island. I didn't think much of it since I was under water and since I'm the God of the sea, I can breath perfectly fine. It wasn't until I saw someone falling deep into the ocean a few meters away from where I was. 

As I got closer, I notice she was wearing a white long sleeve haori with hakama grey pants with her long black hair tied up. She also had a sword with her. I never thought I could ever see someone as beautiful as her. Her soft features is something to marvel at. Not to mention her breasts is more bigger then I thought it would be, I had the urge to touch them before I realized she was drowning. 

She was struggling and losing conscious. I decided to put her back on land while whistling to calm her down. 

After swimming back to shore, I put her down on the sand as she groan to wake up as I quickly left to the ocean while still whistling. 

I never thought I would save someone. Let alone a human like her since humans are nothing but weak little fish to me. I never even thought I would even consider a human to be beautiful. I would be lying if I say I didn't get a glimpse of her large breasts. 

But I didn't know that, that same women would be fighting me. 


Normal POV  

Sasaki and Poseidon's weapons clashed with each other as Poseidon was able to land a blow to Sasaki's right shoulder as it bleed out with her grunting in pain. Their weapons clashing with each other. 

' is this really it? Have I hit rock bottom now? Is this going to be like that day where I almost drowned?' thought Sasaki as she kept parrying attacks from Poseidon. ' I need to end this quickly! Please! everyone who I've fought! Please lend me your strength!' She begged in her mind as she tries to go closer to Poseidon dodging his attacks. 

With all the strength she has left, she got closer and closer and closer as everyone gasped at the action. 

Until Sasaki closed in the gap that she quickly cut Poseidon's right arm with her sword. He quickly grabbed the trident with his right hand as he was about to stab Sasaki before she cut his left arm as he quickly grabbed his trident with his jaws. He was about to stab her before Sasaki used both of her swords and sliced his torso into an x shape just like how Mushashi killed her but this time, she cut him clean as she jumped back. Poseidon dropped his trident as he stared at her with widen eyes. 

" y-you... li-little... fish..." he said before his upper body fell on the ground with his loser body following pursuit as blood gushed out. 

The Gods and Goddess was shocked at the result as the humans even Brunhilde and Goll cheered loudly. 

" I-it seems like round 3 end and the victory is none other then Sasaki Kojiro!" said Heimdall as the humans cheered with Brunhilde and Goll cheering as well. 

Sasaki smiled as she looked around and all the humans cheered and cried out her name. 

" SASAKI! SASAKI! SASAKI!" shouted the crowd. 

Sasaki simply blushed as she smiled. 

" winning feels pretty good... this is my first time winning a dual, let me enjoy it for a bit" said Sasaki to herself. 

She was about to fall down before Hrist held her arm as he put her right arm around his shoulders. 

" here let me help Ms Sasaki" he said as the path to the door where Sasaki came from formed leading them. 

" hey there's the path... I'm supposed to go back right? At least it's better then rowing back hah!" she said as she slowly started walking. 

" brother Hrist your ok!" shouted Goll from the top of the stadium. 

" of course I'm ok! What the hell do you think?!" shouted Hrist back who is now in his anger personality as Goll cowered back. 

Sasaki and Hrist walked back as they made their way to the hospital. 

" congratulations Sasaki, you've won the first battle for humanity and I'm so proud of you" said Hrist as he smiled at her. 

" thanks, you did well too, thank you for providing me a weapon to fight" said Sasaki as she smiled but it wasn't a happy smile but rather a sad smile. 

" you seem upset. What's wrong? Is this not what you want?" 

" no I'm happy that we won but... if we didn't have a Ragnarok and if me and him were born in the same species, we have got to know each other and..." Sasaki didn't want to continue and Hrist already got an idea what she meant. 

" maybe... but you can't change the past now. I'm pretty sure that if we didn't have this, we might live in peace and it does seem like Poseidon did take an interest in you considering he did save you. Maybe you both might be good partners if humans and Gods live in peace" said Hrist. Sasaki knows that in her village, the women tend to ask her who she was going to get married and when she will be married but she mostly just brushed it off saying she haven't found someone. Some of them even tried to set her up with several different men but she always turned them down.

" even if I did want to marry someone, I would choose him... do you think it is possible? Considering that I am human and he is a God?" said Sasaki wondering if a marriage or even a romantic relationship between Gods and humans are even allowed. She knows that Poseidon tried to kill her but she does have to admit it, he did saved her and he is the first person Sasaki admits that he is handsome, sexy even but also a bit of a pervert as she knows and saw that Poseidon have been sneaking in peaks at her large breasts.

" well Zeus is an old perv geezer and he will fall in love with any women so it isn't against any law that I know of so maybe it might happen but not in this time" said Hrist. " also even if there isn't a Ragnarok, are you seriously considering getting together with that guy? The guy that almost killed you but also took a few peaks at your chest?" Hrist looked at her with a 'are you kidding me' face. 

Sasaki simply laughed at his comment before replying " I mean, I would be lying if I say he isn't the most handsome man I've ever met so that's a bonus right?" 

" tsk, get your standards in order already, I'm just glad your able to get out of that fight alive" said Hrist from his meaner personality.

Sasaki simple smiled. She knows that if she and Poseidon knew each other more then maybe they both might get married since all the women would pester her to act more like a lady and get married to the men they have chosen for her and the men in her village either wants to marry her to tell her to give up on sword training and just be a house wife. She didn't think she would fall for a God much less then Poseidon, and he didn't think he could fall for a human. 

' at least now we won a fight, I hope humanity can survive. I've done my part' thought Sasaki with a smile on her face. 


I did say I was going to make this into 3 chapters but I decided to squeeze it into two since I felt it might be appropriate to put both of their back stories together. If you all didn't know, I'm really excited writing Sasaki's character as you can see from all of her details since in this story, I wanted to make her seem similar to Seiko from Dandadan. I'm really excited writing Poseidon/Sasaki's relationship as well. Next chapter, round 4 will start and new characters will be introduced once again so stay tune! See you all soon, bye!
