Issues again

''Kronos, The father of the three brothers who ate his children because he was afraid that they will be more powerful than he is?'' I ask bewildered at his smile as he nods,'' look at you thy, knowing all of this, where did you learn all of this.''

Then his eyes widen," I mean, Amethyst."

''I told you I like going to museums and I stumbled upon your archives, and here I am for knowing them and please Amethyst is a mouthful, you can keep calling me that," I smile and he nods his head thinking.

''Well you wouldn't meet me, will you? If you haven't stumbled upon our archives.'' He smiles, he was right.

''Back to the stories, Zeus and Poseidon had Hades' powers bound to the tomb to ensure Kronos remains never assembled again. It was a fact that Hades was never a father figure to Adriel, but he was the only remaining family that Adriel has since his mother wasn't there, hence the cold demeanour of his. So Adriel resent the whole place and was ready to attack in his mother and father places, but then he suddenly stops.'

''Just like that?'' he nodded

''The armies that he build was used to uphold the castle Adriel is present to live in, mostly to guard and he killed all the Cerberus which was supposedly used to wars which of the remaining of some tame one including holly," he stops. "It was built by Hades' magic, but he managed to penetrate it and took over and magic crafters or as you called witches were killed too.''

''He demolishes his own army?'' I was baffled at Adriel's change of direction,'' why would he suddenly do that? No, that it wasn't good either but -''

''I don't know, but it did leave a big turn on Adriel, the evil within him just suddenly stops he turns into a 180-degree demigod and he just somehow turns off his emotion after that, We try talking to him, but he wouldn't say anything.

"After that, we didn't bother, we know what he's capable enough to destroy the place so we're a bit relief since I don't think we could handle another war like this and we decided to drop it off, everyone did.''

She had wondered over the information that was given to her, and sure she was baffled at the story.

''What does this have to do with me, why can't I go home then?'' I asked silently.

''If you want to leave here, you have to go through the gates of the barrier, or through the library of Alexandria, we could always bring you. But it's heavenly guarded since a sacred placed filled with thousands of scrolls since the downfall," he said and he shrugs.

"the barrier and humans are not exactly welcome if you know what I mean and the other reason is....' He looks at me knowingly what happens,'' Adriel doesn't want to get close there, or his trauma might conjure him up again, and he's a bit afraid.''

''He seems to hate me, Dex,'' I look at the concern demigod,'' he could always tell me where is it I could always go alone since Adriel told me he hated me.''

The demigod looks at me with surprise,'' Adriel told you that he doesn't like you or worse hated you, that doesn't seem like the Adriel I know?''

''We had a big fight before Ramses came to the house remember?'' remembering the cause of the havoc," We kind of left it off in a massive gap without resolution."

''thy, Adriel might look as cold as ice but his a big softie, he's just not used to expressing it since as you know you're human and his mother was human he was afraid you might end the same fate as his mother did,"

"He feels like if you got to close to him, you might somehow hurt." he stops as he sees her sadly slumping in her chair.

"You should think the positive side, didn't you once think that he might care a bit for you? For goodness sake, he even safe you! Besides you did ask a very touchy subject, he wouldn't just lash out on you on purpose like that,'' Dex was right I did ask about it, about her.

''Hey you don't have to listen to Adriel alright?'' he looks at me,'' he's just a little sour at asking Raymond help since he is the keeper of the library of Alexandria.''

''Raymond?''

''Yes... Raymond son of Athena," he looks at me,'' the smartest demigod should have a library as his favourite place, don't you think?''

Her eyes wander to Adriel, who was walking back from the kitchen to grab a drink before returning to sitting beside Ramses. At the right time at the mention of the demigod's name in disgust. As if saying the other demigod's word could make Adriel's skin crawl.

''Why?'' I asked.

''I don't know either. But I know for sure it was bearable for Adriel, but as you know about the Trojan War incident, He kind of or maybe he did snaps a little bit on Ray, and since then the mention of his name could fuel Adriel's anger. But I don't think that's the bigger issue here.' He thought about it for a second,' but if you are curious, you could always ask the demigod yourself.'

He smiles to me knowingly,'' I bet he'll answer you.''

I scoff at him as I cross my hands in disbelief, and we both look over to the oldest demigod who was laughing at Jacob's antics while Adriel was sitting by the armchair, he was looking at them from the back from his book.

''Besides he looks fine with me, he might be a grump old man, but Adriel can't hate anyone,'' as your eyes wander to the demigod who was sitting in the armchair as he fights off a single smile.

"May I remind you, He's misunderstood all his life, it was natural for him to be defensive mostly if you talk something he didn't use to open up."

''I don't think he'll answer me, Dex,'' remembering the argument I had with the demigod.
