Chapter 495: Reviving the dead (3)

Dabria is currently delaying the 24 hours belonging exclusively to her for now as she took me back home. All of my equipments have been placed into my spatial storage which I cannot access, I cannot even talk with my bonds through our minds, I possess nothing for 3 days.

"Hey guys, I'm back."

"Perseus, what happened to you?" Mom asked "You gone missing for a moth, even though I'm sort of happy that your original eye color are back, but why do I sense no magic from you? Are you hiding your presence again, who's chasing after you?"

"Mary, calm down." Dad said "You look terrible, and it seems like Dabria had to escort you here, tell us the full story."

I told everyone what I did when they all gathered, and sure enough, they were mad, why I had to disappear for a month, and the reason for it...

"So just protect me for 4 days, if the enemy hear of this and of how weak I am, I will surely be dead and this time, permanently." I requested "And I'm sorry that I went through with my reckless plan that barely had any chances of success."

"...So you knew it was reckless and yet you charged in with a plan to die." Diana replied with a shaky voice "Ah I bonded with a fucking idiot."

"Yeah, I would easily sacrifice half my lifespan to fight with that bitch." Damon added and Olivia glared at him as my 2 cousins were also in the room

"That was exactly why I can't bring any of you there, I took on the death myself, I bonded with the goddess of death, I'm an Olympian with the title of lord of creation and reality, my reverse being the lord of fantasy and destruction, only I can come from the dead after a higher being ease on the rule a bit, you guys going there would have died along with me, and I would be devastated if I woke up without you."

"So you went on to negotiate with the higher being, the one who warned you of your consequences, the one you pissed off and have no reason to help you?" Siege questioned

"I told you it was a gamble, even the trials, only 1 person can fail at most, and even if they did...I would lose 1 quarter of my powers, if they all did it, I can gain it all back with the side effect of writing in agony for 24 hours."

"Kid, there's a limit to being selfless." Dad scolded "I know it was for your bonds and it was to face your consequences head on, but without Dabria over there, you would have never come back, you have one kid on the way and another who's too young to understand anything, did you seriously planned of leaving them?"

"I'm...really sorry."

"You're an idiot through and through." Ace sighs "Tricking death and tricking Baeli, you really are one hell of a bond, no bonds would ever have to experience suddenly losing their connection like that, twice even, I almost aged because of stress."

"Yeah, you're not supposed to lose!" Oliver joined in "You're supposed to be the strongest!"

"No one is omnipotent, Oliver." John replied as he pat his son's head "Perseus may be reckless, but the result of that is a good one, one of his enemies have backed off, that's a huge advantage, just promised the rest of us that you will never do something like that again and I'll try to find a place in my heart to forgive you."

"Does this mean he can teach us magic now?" Emily asked

"No." Olivia replied quickly "His magic is too powerful, wait till you're 15."

They both then sulked and complain, even if they are trying to make sense of what I did, the glare of my lovers were very terrifying, even if I give a clever retort, I am currently much weaker than them, they're so going to kill me.

*****

And I was right, even my bonds were scared of them and backed away the moment the 4 of us were left alone, Dabria cried her tears and berated me before I came here, but the other 2....oh man, if only glares could kill.

Lia placed her hand on my head and gripped it very tightly.

"I'm leaving all the punishment to you." Eliza said to Lia

I'm so dead.

"So my lovely husband..." she said with a smile "You died?"

"Yes, I just told everyone the story of how it happened, my lovely and beautiful wife."

This is the first time I saw her like really mad outside our petty arguments like cake vs pie or that time...yeah, times and tribulations, Perseus, it happens in marriage all the time, dad warned you about this before he left just now.

Mom also said to be beware of a woman's anger, I know that, so just sit still and have no clever retorts. Ask questions if only necessary, and even then, you are still dead.

"Are you comfortable?" she continued to ask

"Yes, maam."

"Now what sort of punishment do you want for putting me through all that do you think you deserve?"

If I say a merciless one, that's how they will treat me, merciful one, same thing, beg for forgiveness, same thing. I'm out of options, so the best I can do is fidget uncomfortably and say nothing.

"Do you know know stress is not good for our child?" she asked

"Yes, I do know, I apologize for my actions."

"Dabria, how weak is he?"

"I wouldn't say that he's weak since he's still a dhampir, but he is noting but a regular dhampir." Dabria answered

"So can he help us reduced our stress?" Lia asked

"Yes, he should have the same physique, but I don't think he can handle any of us anymore."

"So that means he can no longer be the dominant one..."

I tried to run, I really did, but it's useless.
