Chapter 362: Expected (2)

3rd person view

"Sis, what happened to you?" Castor asked "Why are you attacking us?"

"Daughter, please don't make us restrain you." the king warned sadly "I do not want to do it, but you attacking the royal castle is treason, it can get you executed whether you are a princess or not."

"Eros has shown me the way, this world will be destroyed anyway, I might as well enjoy my time here while I can." Eleanor retorted "What's the point of status and wealth? We should just spend it now and deal with it before we all die a pointless death."

"Sister, you just returned to us, calm down and we can discuss about this. I'll make sure to do in everything in my power to help you." Charlotte offered

"You don't understand, there are things in the universe that are beyond your understanding, realm of gods, the multiverse, infinite alternate worlds, timelines, Eros, he promised me that he would help but now he left me with all of you." Eleanor mumbled "There are monsters beyond our power, Perseus and Albert are being made into vessels for that power."

"What vessel?" Castor asked

"Chaos!" Eleanor shouted as she held her head "Chaos has been gathering power for a very long time and is now in need of a mortal host to use her full power. Specifically if they are human or part human since human are the closest being among its creation to Chaos itself.

"Humans feel despair, hope, love, hate, sadness, happiness..." she continued to mumble "I've seen it all, one of them will become the vessel for chaos, it isn't just an expectation anymore, but a definite plan in the wheel of the fates."

Albert and Aenon just happened to return to their home as marquis Golds informed them what the Neelofar's royal informed them and he has also informed them that the princess is attacking the royal castle which they both rush there as soon as possible.

Albert warp them to outside the castle and ran in, on their way they met up with other royal mages, the Steels and many knights heading up. Not just dead, they see many dead guards in the castle, some have little to no sign of resistance, which is probably because they were afraid to attack a royal.

*****

They surround the crazy Eleanor who keep mumbling a lot of things like fate and many other ridiculous visions.

-A god is descending- Helena said as Albert and Aenon can now sense it too, this presence is different but familiar to Zeus.

A god descended and created a fiery entrance of blazing and bright yellow flames. The god looks to be in his mid 20s, 184cm tall, has blonde hair and golden eyes with a laurel wreath on his head. He's lean and muscular and has a white bow with golden rims on his back.

He took out his bow and create a light arrow out of thin air to shoot it at Eleanor before anyone can respond, but instead of hurting her, it spun around her and stretched out into a rope made of fiery light to restrain her. Eleanor can no longer use magic and is struggling to get out.

"Apollo?!" Aenon exclaimed

"Hmm?" Apollo then turned to see them with a slight surprised expression "Ah I recognize you, you're pop's students. What are you doing here?"

"No! What are you doing here, Sir Apollo?" Aenon asked "This is our world. You don't even have believers here."

"Right." he said as he clasped his hand "I need to tell everyone my name first. Ahem. I am Apollo, son of Zeus and Leto, an Olympian god of the sun, oracle, light, music, poetry, healing, plagues, prophecy, archery and.... I don't remember, but I'm also the more good looking and more popular twin than Artemis."

< What is it with sun gods and their titles? > Craig sighs

< He would get along with Perseus perfectly, both have high self confidence, handsome and like to talk about their stupid titles> Emma thought

"I'm also the slayer of-" Apollo continued but is then interrupted when he sees that Eleanor is biting her binds "Stop right there young lady, this is very unsightly of you. A woman of your beauty shouldn't be doing such things, it would bring a bad rep to me and your family."

"What is it to you, you stupid flashy bastard?!" Eleanor retorted

"Thank you, I like being called flashy, but anyway that's because Eros seems to have forcefully used your body to be a host of Pythia, one of my oracles." Apollo replied "That's why you see visions of the possible futures and lots of other things which I'm too lazy to explain. I mean, he picked a great host, if you aren't my oracle, I would have totally asked you out. "

-He seems familiar- Albert commented -Like a certain talented womanizer mage we know.-

-Yeah. oddly familiar- Helena agreed

-If Horus hadn't took Perseus under his literal wings and Apollo took him in instead, I can't imagine how much bigger his ego would be.- Aenon chuckled amused

"Wait, Pythia, oracle?" Castor recounted as he tried to remember "Master Aplo-"

"Apollo." the god corrected

"Master Apollo, what do you mean by her being a host for an oracle? She never had an affinity for these type of things, otherwise we would have had her trained under a seer a long time ago."

"Well Pythia, the oracle of Delphi, is a bit different. She needs a host to operate, many different version of her origin which I also forgot since I may have messed around with men and women too much...don't give me that look." Apollo pouted "I was just mostly kidding, but long story short, Pythia was taken from me long ago, now I found her in this particular pretty princess."

"So how do we give the oracle back and get her back?" The king asked "And how do we eliminate her hate for us?"

"Well there are 2 ways to expel the oracle from her body." Apollo answered by showing his 2 fingers "Number 1 is to kill her and number 2 is to have someone take away her purity. Or you can just do the 3rd and have her be a permanent host of the oracle."
