Chapter 309: Horus

"Hey man, wassup!"

"You're the only one in every world to greet me like that and live" Horus chuckled "You know I was joking when I asked you to do that"

"Well I'm sure you're not here to escape the other gods' wrath, right?"

"Well they're loud. Besides, I cam here to talk to ya. Hey Andrius, last time I met you was at the banquet all those times ago where you tried to not go."

"Hey falcon head" Zach replied "I apologize for not making a good impression last time"

"Well there's always a reincarnate who does that every time it's hosted, so don't be too embarrassed" Horus laughed

-So when will the rain end?- Dabria asked which I repeated to Horus -I'm too lazy to descend and ask him myself nor do I know a lot about the other gods. I want to know when I can go to sleep peacefully without hearing the shouts-

"Oh should be 15 mins...at least" Horus answered "Perseus, you've seen that enforcer, Elektra, right? She's pretty hot."

-Ew ew ew, she's like my mother.-

-Didn't you check her out before?- Dabria asked

-That's only because I didn't know better, I've matured-

"Why do you look so disgusted by the idea?" Horus asked "I thought you were one of us, is she that ugly to you?"

I then see a yellow lightning flashing amongst the many bolts, but this one particular lightning bolt has a similar presence to the one that killed me in the distance. Elektra herself is listening, I better word it right.

"No, she's beautiful. But I'm not into her like that, besides don't speak too loud about that, my girlfriends think that I can't hear them eavesdropping from the bedroom, but I want them to go back to sleep soon since all the sound of thunder woke em up."

"Told you he can hear us despite all that" I heard Eliza whispered to Lia and then opened the door "Sorry, we didn't want to come out when we heard Horus came"

-Hmm, not bad, you complimented your auntie just simple enough to not get you in trouble- Diana commented

"Well I believe that I can help you find Cain" Horus claimed "I can also simply enough just remove Adam, but I will break several rules and my get suspended from the council and get demoted back to an enforcer for a while."

"Isn't that a pretty good status amongst the gods?" Zach asked

"Yeah, but also the most overworked. I like to comfortably sit on my throne while spectating mortals and feel good about myself" Horus answered "You mortals are like those funny armed cockroaches, very funny to crush my under my feet."

"There are worlds with armed cockroaches?" Stela asked

"Oh yeah, cockroaches evolves at a quick rate." Horus nodded "Hecate thought it'll be funny to make them able to use magic. Constant war, I tell you, still no victor."

"Damn that old cot"

"Yeah, damn that old cot" Horus repeated

"You sure that you should be insulting your ancestor right now?" Eliza asked "I mean, she's a literal goddess of magic and witchcraft, I'd rather not get cursed"

"Please go to sleep, I'll go accompany you later."

"Everyone have been telling me to rest a lot these days" she sighs

"Should I accompany you instead, Eliza?" Alice joked

"Back to Cain."

"Right," Horus nodded "You'll need to talk it out with Eve or Adam, they'll know where he is."

"So where can we find Eve?"

"Well she's trying to find you or Adam, but she's a spirit, she will need a host." Horus snickered "She wants to be reunited with her lover."

"Cool, when will she arrive? And if she's evil after all these years, how strong is she?"

"She's on the same power level as Adam, so you're basically dead if that's the case." Horus answered

-He said if, which means she isn't- Siege pointed out

"Is that all you have to say and came here for?"

"Yup" Horus nodded "Nice meeting you all, especially you my beloved student."

He then flew away.

"Little brother, to this day, I still can't believe that I would never imagine myself in a situation where a god would just casually come and casually greet a mortal" Stella muttered

*****

We decided to rest for tonight, we'll go after the 5 tomorrow and try to find Eve afterwards before we get our appointment from Heracles. The plan is basically as usual, a few will go after the gorgers while the rest go after the worshippers. Me and Zach are the only ones who take our time.

Eliza have fallen asleep leaving only me and Lia awake.

"Big day for you tomorrow" Lia said

"A bad day for them, I still don't know what I should do to them."

"Please promise me to not lose yourself. Revenge is a terrible thing, some people only just feel empty afterwards. I trust you and despite always looking at the bright side of things, I worry."

"I'm not a cliché side character who will lose themselves after such matters. I'm a protagonist, I will work my way out of every problem."

"Yes, like my brother's continuous attempt at getting us both to marry" she giggled

"Speaking of which, his coronation should be close, right?"

"Yes, it's close. It's our duty to attend, you can't escape."

"Well not just that, after all this, Neelofar, the Crimson kingdom and the demon kingdom are supposed to have a meeting where we'll sign a treaty to improve the relationship between the kingdom. Struan will be attending as king"

"Oh yeah, I heard about that."

"Well I'm connected to all 3 kingdom, so I can't even escape even if I try. I heard some demons tried to rebel against the fact that I was made their lord, but I sent Bora to handle it. I gonna try to make money in the demon kingdom, my money is going to last through several generations of my descendants even if they spend it wastefully."

I then felt Eliza hugged me from behind as she sleeps.

"Hmm too bad, I was thinking of doing something there" Lia whispered "But now it will wake her up. It really is hard to monopolize you"

"No matter what we do is going to wake her up since we sleep in the same room and on the same bed. Probably going to make it harder for each of you to monopolize me if one more joins in."

"Well I'm very competitive, so I don't think I would mind."
