Chapter 407: Robbing Olympus

"I want some spoils too." Loki said

"Sure, we just want one of Hermes' shoes, Demeter's high fiber wheat for the horses and a few other unrelated spoils if possible, but the first 2 are the most important."

"Oh this is so fun. We shouldn't just stop with Olympus, ooh, when Olympus offer you the temporary seat, you should accept it and be our inside guy for the council of gods. We can then rob the whole council."

"...That sounds fun."

"You can't be seriously considering this." Dabria sighs

-Just saying...if you do it, I'm in.- Ace chimed in

"I'll marry you if you don't." Dabria said "I swear it on Styx."

"That's a lie, you aren't a Greek, swearing on Styx doesn't work for you."

"Why do you have to be so attentive to each word I say? Can't let me win once, can you?"

"I already let you get away with kissing me, what more do you want?"

"Do you have any idea how many gods and goddesses aske me to set you up with them? No, you don't. By doing that, I got less letters and I basically mark you as mine."

"I don't belong to you."

"Trust me, you are. Cordelia and Eliza might consider you their trophy, but to me, you're more of a toy."

"Wow, you think of me as a toy? That's rude."

"Coming from a guy who raise a flag with every woman he meets, I think it's justified."

"Huh, you're right, Ace. They really do argue like a married couple." Loki commented

"This really happens that often, huh?" Cain asked

"Yep." Damon chuckled

"Shut it." Dabria demanded "I hate associating with him. I even took therapy with Aphrodite in private to actually confirm my feelings for him."

"Wait, why'd you never tell us?" Diana asked

"I mean look at him, he's a pervert."

"Every guy is a pervert, ask Nova, heck ask Loki and Cain here."

"Can't say that you're wrong." Loki shrugged "You like them big or small?"

"I'm not answering that."

"I have my preferences." Cain answered "So back on topic, we're stealing from Demeter and Hermes, you 2 can talk about your not so functional relationship later."

"Say, I heard her quarters contains every crops of every possible world in existence, and it's still expanding since she's still collecting. Want to gamble on the chances of you using your sun powers to burn every inch of it?" Loki asked

"Bro, I'm not an idiot to do that. Poseidon may not think Demeter is dangerous, but I know her stories. She'll cause famine and other things and demanding that I go through every world till I replaced her collection again."

-He just casually address a god as bro.- Damon commented -People would kill to do that.-

"Since when did you care so much about humanity? I thought you hated humans."

"Most of them, but not all. Besides other races depend on those crops too."

"Well let's go rob Olympus right now." Loki said and got up "Now's a good time, won't be long till Poseidon got a clue and reveal it to the others, Athena would fully understand about what we're trying to do and we won't be able to steal, now's a good time. Heracles is also taking a break for the next few days, so this is as good as it gets."

So you know that white palace on mount Olympus mentioned in Greek Mythology? Yeah, there's one in the realm of gods and let me tell you, it's amazing. There ponds with beautiful fishes, cool topiaries, decorated with the most beautiful plants and all of this is taken cared of celestial dryads and nymphs.

-They're beautiful.- Damon commented -...Sis, don't look at me like that.-

With Loki around, he can use his magic to hide our group's presence as we sneaked around the security. The 4 exits and entrances of Olympus is heavily patrolled by a bunch of enforcers.

Loki knew the time and blind spot of their patrol routes since he planned on doing this solo one day. These guys are slightly inferiors to Elektra's level, but they sure got numbers, and without one member of Olympus, the security is tighter than ever. But Loki somehow knows of plan since Olympus predicted this someday.

I would turn us all into dark phantoms to just easily sneak past all of them, but this place is magic sensitive, they would know about our break in. Well I stopped time and move at super quick speed to move my allies but Loki inside the palace past the enforcers. I placed Loki in front of a bunch of those patrol enforcers and move a few enforcers from other routes to surround him.

I then got in with the others and let time move normally again. I then heard shouts from the enforcers and one from Loki.

"Damn that student of mine is smart!" Loki shouted with a slight hint of amusement in his voice "Hermes, they know!"

Flashback....

Before the meeting with Loki, Ace gave us a warning.

"He'll betray us the moment we're inside." he warned

"Wait, so we're working with a traitor?" Cain asked

"Yes, Loki is a great teacher, but first and foremost, he's a trickster. He loves chaos." Ace explained "A plan like invading Olympus? He'll definitely agree with it, but he probably would've warned an inside god before hand, mainly Hermes, a fellow trickster. We'll 'successfully' pull off the robbery only to be confronted by guards outside, Loki will betray Hermes too by stealing those items from our hands for himself afterwards and let us face Olympus."

"Why?" Diana asked "Just so that he can trick both Olympus and a bunch of celestial burglars? Immortal Cain included of course."

"He would want to see us on how we would escape out of the situation. It's a test and a source of entertainment for him. I love that guy." Ace laughed

"I wouldn't call him a good teacher if he plans on betraying his own student." Cain commented "That's like throwing your own child into a fire and say 'hey, if he survives, he'll be one of the strongest person alive.'. "

"Do you really still plan to see him after this and continue receiving lessons from him?" Siege asked

"Of course, if anything, that's how we get along." Ace answered
