Chapter 19: Trickster

PART 1

As I made my way ahead into the dim-lit forest, the hazy fog didn't seem to be here at all, it allowed me to think, and calmly sort my thoughts out in my head.

"So, how do I even enter in the Mountain of the Gods?"

I asked the man in front of me as two of the other Devil contractors walked on my side, it felt unsettling but I knew I was fine.

My body right now was still linked to the Unraveled World, which in return allowed for me to see everything inside said world, down to one's Origin.

"Well, to enter upwards in the mountains, you need to go through an gate. However the gate cannot be opened by any normal means, legend says only a prophecy child can enter through the gates, are you perhaps one?"

Did this guy really say that? I'm pretty sure it was obvious by now. Looking ahead at the mountains I smirked, now holding onto Dàinsleif a bit harder as it was on my shoulders, I released a miniature amount of its power.

"W-What...?"

Around me they started to feel an uneasy presence radiating from Dàinsleif. As expected, this blade was powerful, just the mere release of its power could instill them all with fear, they even jumped to the side of the pathway prepared to battle me.

"What are you trying to pull human?"

I could heard another voice coming from them, it sounded young. I assumed it was the other devil contractor besides the one I followed. This one sounded like a young teen in his early years of development.

"What am I trying to pull? Well you all were walking slow, so I decided to clear the pathway up a bit more so I can get there faster."

Really I just tried to prove it to them that I was a Hero. So I walked ahead, noticing them trying Telepathy again, I snickered under my breath, disappearing into the fog eventually.

"We understand... you are a prophecy child aren't you?"

The female in the black robe spoke this time around from behind me, as the others caught up to my pace.

"I am, pretty sure it should've been obvious by now. Have you even been driven into a corner by another human so casually?"

PART 2

The woman from behind me went silent, however in that moment I could feel her turn me around, tackling me into the ground... but something felt off—

"Mmmm— Mmmnmnghh??!?"

She was on top of me... kissing me?

"Mwah..~"

Our lips departed as she laid against my stomach, finally revealing herself by removing the black hoodie on her face. A blonde female, her hair tied up into a pony tail with two bangs in front of her face... much as I hate to say it, she was cute.

".....?"

I didn't know how to respond, she just sat on top of me giving me a seductive look.

"An actual hero before my very eyes... have my child, birth my child into this world with the same flesh and blood as you, Oh hero~!"

She started to maneuver her waist up and down my body before I instinctively pushed her forward.

"What the hell?! Why are you guys letting her do that so casually? What's wrong with you?"

I started to dust myself off, being sexually assaulted by some... some.... Devil contractor! I didn't know how to feel!

"*Yawn* what's going on...?"

And last but not least she awoken, Providence voice was heard coming from my trench coat pocket, slowly crawling herself up at the top.

"Seth... are we there yet—"

I noticed Providence rubbing her eyes once her head peeked out of my pocket, however she stopped soon as she met eyes with the three devil contractors in front of us.

"DIVINE ABY-"

I know, I know. She was gonna yell out her attack to defeat them all, however I covered her mouth and thumped her back into my pocket, this time zipping the trench coat to the side rather simply buttoning it. She was locked in shut.

"We apologize Hero, we don't know what has gotten into Loki—"

Loki? What a weird name... I swore I heard that name from somewhere before. Actually things had gotten even weirder once another one of the devil contractors mentioned the name Loki.

PART 3

"Loki...?"

I asked in a curious tone, however once I did, Loki had struck at the man who given away her name... I noticed a dagger stuck in her hand, was she attacking him?

"Dàinsleif."

I simply swung my sword, cutting right in between Loki and the devil contractor, stopping the blonde girl from carrying on even further... I managed to deny her phenomena, however it was a fake out?

"What?!"

Off to the side was the real Loki, she already stabbed right into the poor devil contractors throat... blood poured from his wound and spilled all along the ground, the other one tried to run, however once he turned around his head was rolling on the floor.

"Seth let me out! What's going on out there?!!? Whatttttt??! Did they say Loki!? You gotta be kidding me! Let me outtttt!!!"

Providence kept moving around in my pocket trying to break free, but I for one knew she was still injured despite her act. But besides that I had a bigger picture right in front of me...

"Hello Seth Genesis, how has it been? Do you like my act I displayed?"

In front of me I could see Loki morph into the structure of a male, however I only noticed it from the shrinking of the breasts.

This bastard has been following me, I soon realized who he was...

"Loki, the Trickster God. Why have you followed me?!"

Staring at him, my eyes looked fierce enraged. Dàinsleif gained a eerie Dark, and purple aura around it. At any moment I was ready to attack him without a hint of mercy.

"Now now Seth, I'm here to help you."
