Chapter 145: First Sign

So.

I didn't work as they thought it would, because as soon as they the Underworld, Enychta started to act jittery, like they were being watched, which really made Luke feel slightly anxious about things around them, but the blessing that was the dear Pruno Begoni, who successfully calmed the nervous demon man, his horns were growing out of his forehead every step he took, but when Pruno held his hand and sent confort through the bond they shared, both Eny and Luke calmed down.

It took seconds for Eny to put Pruno on his shoulders while carrying Luke in a princess carry and walking forward, like he knew where they needed to go. Maybe he knew?

The answer was no.

He did not know where he was going, only that he felt it, the powerful aura of a monster and he felt hungry, he needed to hunt and share his kill with his Mates so they can eat, he needs to provide them with something- BUt isn't it better to just get them some souls and then feed them those souls? They taste better- Oh, but they can't digest souls?- Can they digest monster flesh?- There's only one way to find out!

Eny's steps were confident, fast, as he started to run towards the scent of an open grave, like decay, like death. "What...?" Pruno whispered as he felt the powerful aura of death that emanated from behind one alleyway that Enychta ran straight into, which was possibly a mistake. As soon as he stepped through, it was like they stepped through a thin veil that separated realities because it was suddenly night, and they were in a forest. "Huh?" Enychta huffled when he felt the night sky, there was no moon on the sky, which he at first thought was strange, but then he ignored it.

But he still smelled that scent of monstrosity, of something delicious, so he followed. Pruno felt the aura of death around increase, but strangely enough, the trees around them had this very focused point of LIfe Energy on their centers, like a beating heart,, that echoed through the aura of death all around. "Be careful, Luke." They were Minor Gods now, they were several times as stronger than normal Demigods- In fact, they were above Demigods now, they could ignite the Divine Spark inside someone to make them Gods, then feed their Divine Spark with their Divine Energy to make them Newborn Gods easily.

"Ever Their praises, and abundance to the Black Goat of the Woods. Iä! Shub-Niggurath! Iä! Shub-Niggurath! The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young!" A sudden voice could be heard as they ran, Enychta was going towards the voices, they ran through the canopy and before them was a massive black stone altar, several figures wearing black robes chanting as on, wearing a red robe, held a baby on his hands, the child's parents were lying lifeless on the altar. The trees around began moving, and that was when they notifced, the branches moving in a very awkward angles...

They weren't trees.

The trunk snapped as it got up from the ground, the light grey skin of the trees started to turn purple as three paws sprouted out of their base, with goat-like hooves. A screech wchoed from the woods, soon being followed aby another, and another, and soon there was this chorus, this choir of screeches and whispers of madness that would drive a normal man insane... HOwever, they weren't normal, they were Gods. "Ah... To be in the presence of thy children..." The person above the altar sighed, raising the child and screaming while the chanting grew louder: "Come forth, Shub-" he threw the baby towards the monsters, but before the baby could be eaten alive by said monster, a large vine caught the baby gently, saving them from their fate. "WHO DARES!" The booming voice of the figure echoed through the not-so-quiet forest of whispers and wails, but the trio of Gods did not stop, Luke quickly rescued the BAby while Pruno attacked the whorshippers, Eny was hungry, therefore he attacked the monsters, the Dark Young, who screamed and retaliated with their tendrils and hooves, there were so many, so many that Enychta's endless hunger may be finally satiated.

The chief priest let go of their red cloack, revealing a satyr-like creature with black fur and three eyes, one extra eye on the forehead that had the green color, while the one on the right had the blue color and the one on the right had the red color, which was the representation of the The Black Goat with a Thousand Young, also known as All-Mother, Mother Goddess, Lord of the Woods, The Mighty Mother. Shupnikkurat, the Allmighty Shub-Niggurath! One of the Three Pillars of Azathoth alongside Yog-Soggoth and Nyarlathotep, who were each born from one aspect of Azathoth.

While Azathoth brought the Darkness (Which gave birth to Shub-NIggurath), the Namesless Mist (Which brought Yog-Soggoth to existence) and Nyarlathotep (Who was born from Azathoth itself), then Shub-Niggurath and Yog-Soggoth gave birth to Yeg and Nag, who each gave birth to Cthulhu and Tsathoggua, who each gave birth to their own offspring and continued their own things.

But what is most important about the Dark Young of SHub-Niggurath is that they taste like goat. Not surprising at all, since they baah like goats when you kill them, and their tentacles still move after you kill them, Enychta ate them like spaghetti and he was not apologetic about it at all. He only received information about these things, memories of their birth, coming from the Black Goat herself and hearing her say something... Eny kept eating those things, he slowly but surely learned something imporatnt.

This wasn't the only place this was happening.

No.

It was happening on the whole world.

At the same time.

The OUter Gods were making small holes through the barrier from inside out, and they needed to do something about this, or else the universe would simply be something worse than it already is! Something way worse... The Playground of the Outer Gods, since Azathoth woke up and it did not kill the Eldritch Beings neither destroyed the universe, it now wanted to use it as a playground...

And yet, Enychta couldn't remember what he needed to do to stop it all. He needed his memories back, he needed to eat that person.
