Chapter 8: Brothers of Destiny

PART 1

"Change my life forever?"

I responded to those words, they were the ones that stuck out to me the most.

"Yes, change your life forever. Where you're going, there is no guaranteed that the Celestial's will even help you. Do you really want to risk that?"

My body now had unfroze, she released me as I stumbled forward.

"It's the only chance I have, why not go for it?"

Providence had hovered over towards my shoulder now resting her butt on it as she swung her legs back and forth while they hung.

"You may continue your journey then, but I wonder if my story will make you have a change of mind."

"Hahaha, I seriously doubt that but let's hear it."

I continued my path down into the Devil Zone with providence on my shoulder.

"So a long time ago came Beloveno, this entire world is named that, not just this universe but everything from the Mortal World, the Celestial World, the Higher Gods world, Ohithius, The Ultimate World, and the Garden of Eden, there's much more but that's a lot of explaining. Beloveno is everything encompassed inside of a wheel like structure, and outside of our wheel exists an even higher Wheel, and other gods, or rather call them the first gods."

Hearing this story I didn't believe at first, but no one could just make this up off the top of their head.

"Alright I'm following..."

As I continued to leave the vast open lands of death and corpses, I entered back inside of the eerie misty forest again, this time holding onto my bow I brought with me, preparing an arrow in my other hand just in case.

"Beloveno itself is a Wheel created by the first Gods called the Supreme Gods. The Celestial world above the Mortal world is a place where I originate from, it's hierarchy is infinitely expanding upwards with newer Celestials, but above that hiearchy is the Hierarchy of the Higher Gods, Zeus, the Allfather, and Odin."

"I understand somewhat... in terms of Ranks the mortal world is the lowest, the Celestial world is the middle ground, and the Higher Gods is the highest ground. Then what about the Garden of Eden?"

I asked Providence before turning my eye to face her on my shoulder.

PART 2

"Hey watch out!"

I lost my concentration and in front of me came a large brute dog, a hellhound to be exact.

"It's no problem."

At the sound of my voice, the creature growled underneath it's breath, but I wasn't the type to just let my enemy use some method to scare me. I placed away my bow and arrow knowing it wouldn't do anything to this MASSIVE creature.

"Speed of Light..."

In an instant it's head came flying off and rolling to the side of its body, blood shot from its cleaved neck, showing it was dead without doubt.

"I managed to get some of my Sin energy back, but I don't know what Sin I committed in order to receive some?"

Providence on my shoulder leaned back with an laughter, it actually annoyed me.

"Bwahahaha! Silly mortal, you shown disrespect towards me and claimed I wasn't a celestial! That itself is a sin!"

You know, that was the only thing I could think of which was worthy of a Sin, so maybe she was a celestial? I was in denial.

"Anyways, what about the garden of Eden? That's the thing I want to know of the most, since Adam and Eve comes from it."

Providence puffed up a cheek pouting since I ignored her comment, but she did give me my answer.

"Hmph! The Garden of Eden is a place between the mortal world and Celestial world, sitting right next to purgatory. It's the only way a Celestial can go down into the mortal world, and for a Mortal to transcend up into the Celestial world."

Alright I understood a bit of that.

"Then what's to speak of about Purgatory?"

Asking that question Providence looked in shame. Actually I think I brought some sort of fear into her.

PART 3

"We actually have no clue how purgatory formed after the creation of Beloveno... first it was The Mortal world, Celestial world, and Higher Gods world. The other worlds such as the Ultimate world, and Ohithius came from major events, but for purgatory we have no clue how it came to be."

"And you call yourself gods? Aren't you suppose to be omniscient?"

"Hey you little shit, we are omniscient. And we all embody important concepts! For me I embody destiny itself, you see I'm the most important one of them all!"

"....Sooo why're you here in the mortal world then?"

She paused in her rambling before repeatedly slapping me with her tiny hand, now standing up on my shoulders.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! When you talk it's annoying! Why did Aurora give the necklace to you out of all the brothers?! Gaaah!"

I used my thumb to thump against her stomach which sent her flying off my shoulder. She fell right into a bush.

"We should set up a camp, all this traveling has tired me out... if you don't mind, can you keep watch when I'm sleeping?"

I eyed over at the bush she fell in and seen her pop her tiny head out.

"You ask me to watch after you, after you just thumped me into a bush?"

"Who's fault is that? Not my fault you're tiny."

"I can eradicate you right now, Child of Mortality!"

"Then do it?"

I egged her on before smiling, my face was even smug.

"Whatever! I'll watch after you, just set up your stupid camp."

This time around I given her a thankful smile rather a picky one. I ended up finding a perfect spot for camping now, it was even less foggy so I could see my surroundings, gathering sticks and branches, I made a campfire, and simply using a flicker of my Sin energy had lit up the campfire, allowing me to lay down next to it on my side, yawning after all that stress.

"I don't know if I'm brave or either stupid for sleeping in the most dangerous spot in the world... but I trust in providence more than ever right now."

My eyes had slowly closed with my hand keeping my head up from the ground, now falling into a deep sleep...
