Its Time For Them To Pay Chp 18

PERCY POV

I have no idea what Nemesis is referring to at all

"So, your domain is telling you to make things right?" I asked a bit curious as I can't remember much of Nemesis showing up in the books

I think she showed up in the Mark Of Athena but its been some time since I read it

"Yes," She answered a bit cautiously

"Good, then you can help me with my plans," I said as I sat down and mentally noted to figure out what was going on about her talking about some great tragedy later even if the possible answer is scaring me to death right now

"Plans?" Asked most of them

"Yes, I want all of you to help me run the west after the Olympians are no longer an issue, or at least swear to stand with me," I said to which most of them laughed

(Expected) I thought while looking at them

"You are serious aren't you?" Asked Nike after a few minutes of laughing

"Yes, it is my destiny to decide if Olympus falls or remains," I answered plainly to them to which they started laughing

I smirk a little

"A half-blood of the eldest gods

Shall reach sixteen against all odds

And see the world in endless sleep

The Hero's soul, cursed blade shall reap

A single choice shall end his days

Olympus to preserve or raze," I finished as their eyes widened and I am sure I could see wheels turning in their heads

"The oath, that's why they made wasn't it?" Asked Nike softly realizing the implications

"Yes," I answered simply knowing that it is enough to get their attention

I stand up from my chair and walk around them

"It is my destiny to either spare or destroy Olympus. I have already given them a choice either they become better or I will destroy them," I said with a tone of finality as far as I am aware they have been rather quiet

I won't let my guard down

Ever

"If you gave them that choice why did you call this meeting?"Asked Hecate with suspicion in her voice and her eyes narrowed at me

I chuckle slightly

"Because, if they fail to improve, I will destroy them. No more chances. The issue with that is a pantheonic war may start," I tell them but I am not truly worried about that just yet

Many pantheons are having their own problems to deal with

In the books, the greeks weren't the only ones with issues in their own pantheons

The Norse, Egyptian, Japanese, Chinese, and even the Hindu are having issues from what Circe has been able to gather

Another plus on having a minor deity of magic that is also a woman who understands connections

She has some not a lot but enough to gather information on this world's pantheons that wasn't covered in the books

"If they decide to be destroyed, I will need people to take over. As I am aware there are beings in the Hindu pantheon like Asura and Devas that are capable of defeating the 12 Olympians alone," I told them one of my reasons

One of the middle Asura in terms of power can solo the entire Olympian council, Hades and Hestia excluded

I nearly bit my tongue off as I still have no idea where I truly stack up

(I hate not knowing) I think to myself as I focus back on them

"So, why call us specifically?" Asked Dinlas

"You all are here because I believe you have the potential to defeat the Olympian council," I told them

I turn to look at Hecate

"Hecate, you are THE goddess of magic, this means that you can at least counter their powers or at least weakened them enough for someone to take them out," I told her as I turn back to Dinlas

"Dinlas, you are the god of Hatred and Chaos yet, you haven't even scratched the surface of your power. Your 'mother' is too stupid to realize what exactly she gave birth to. You are her opposite, plus more. Your mother enjoys causing tragedy, but she completely ignores the pain of others, that she causes," I say while chuckling near the end

"I heard someone that because of the existence of love, sacrifice is born as well as hate and one comprehends, one knows pain," I tell him as his eyes widen

"Hatred isn't it," He tells me shocked as I can tell his entire view of life was shattered in a moment

I nod

"The hatred that she has caused through millennia is at your disposal," I told him

"How powerful would I be," He said to himself in shock

"Truthfully, probably as powerful as one of the big three," I told him as much of the hatred in the world was probably already gathered by other deities with the domain of hatred

"Nike, you are the most important deity in a battle," I told her as someone capable of manipulating the concept of victory itself was no slouch in the power department

However, there is only so much she can do to match the combined power of the Olympians

I look at everyone else

"The rest of you are no less important. Many don't see how truly powerful you are, but I do," I said walking over to my chair and sitting down

They look at each other most likely having a conversation in their minds and I quickly glanced at Circe who was trying to hide a smirk

Finally, Nemesis stood up and I did the same and in a swift motion, she kneeled down

"I Nemesis the goddess of Balance, Retribution, and Vengeance swear on my name, domains and my existence that I shall serve Perseus Jackson for eternity, no matter what," She declared with gritted teeth and I could feel a presence surrounding me, and her and I could feel it

I can command her to do anything

ANYTHING

But, I won't make her do anything against her wishes

I am not a god

I won't be a god like the Olympians

I will be the god I choose to be

One by one they each swore loyalty with a twist

I must fulfill my end of the bargain and make things better for the other greek gods, or at least the ones that aren't total assholes alongside their demigod children

"Bring any child you may have to this island. They shall have shelter and protection against monsters. Circe, Hecate I want you to begin making a barrier that is similar to the one in Camp Half-Blood except that it also lets in monsters or other gods that become affiliated with us and makes it so that it uses the leaking energy of the demigods which is otherwise their scent to help power the barrier" I commanded those two

"It will take a couple of days to modify the barrier but it is doable," Said Hecate as she stood next to Circe as they both nodded to one another

"As for the rest of you," I said turning to look at them

"Once your children get here, they will have a choice to either fight or just live their lives as best they can until this is done. However, I want them to be at a level where they will be able to shift the balance of power in our favor," I told them giving them an unrealistic expectation which is what I want as they will give it their all

"As for me, I will be getting our blacksmith here," I told them as I am finally going to save Braires

It is time for weapons
