Chapter 14
MEANWHILE IN OLYMPUS.......
In Olympus every upper gods were present in Zeus palace to discuss about the recent disturbance that have been happening in the underworld because of the creation of another chaos Pearl. Every single upper god and medium gods who represent essential elements used in the formation of the universe were present at the meeting holding in Zeus palace.
"So what are we going to do, the chaos Pearl is almost awaken and we don't have the power to destroy it again" The god of the seas stand up and shouted. "We don't have the power because you upper gods wasted all of it just to kill the goddess of lust before she could create the Pearl" The god of Wine, who is a medium god said as he challenged the god of the seas. "I see you are taking sides with that traitor who nearly destroyed us and the world by creating the chaos Pearl for Hades" the god of the sun said as he challenged the god of wine. "...You should have excepted sure insolent talk from that medium god" The god of music, one of the most stylish god in Olympus cut in. "You call yourself a upper god but all you do is play your magical flute and sleep with maidens, want a shame" the god of wine replied the god of music. "You dare insult an upper god in my presence?" The god of war shouted at the god of wine. "What are you going to do about it, god of war" the god of wine said as he ready is hands to conjure some magics.
"ENOUGH!" Zeus shouted and his voice roars round the palace. "I didn't invite you all prestiged gods to Olympus so that you all can fight among each other. We need to discuss the matter at hand and the universe it at stake if we don't find another powerful magic to destroy the chaos Pearl before it truly emerged." Zeus said as he stand up from his throne and walk to the middle of the meeting hall. "So which one of you know where we can borrow or take sure power" He said as he turn and looked at all of them. "Why don't you just take the one you took before, brother" the god of wine said as he drinks he's wine. "You know very well the mother of Fate is currently resting and we can't borrow or take her powers when she is resting" Zeus said with a long face. "You are the supreme ruler and king of the upper gods, why can't you just use your powers to destroy it" the goddess of wild life, one of the medium goddesses in Olympus ask him. "Am afraid that my lightening powers shouldn't be enough to destroy that Pearl, even our powers combined wouldn't be enough." Zeus said looking really worried. "So the king of the upper gods can't destroy the Chaos Pearl with his own powers and he also can't even stop his own brother from creating it again, hahahaha!" The god of rebirth, who is a medium god said as he laughed. "What are you trying to say, cousin?" Zeus said as he becomes angry but hold his anger. "Am saying that you are incompetent cousin" The god of rebirth boldly said as he smiled at Zeus from his table. "You dare insult me!" Zeus said as he's anger conjure lightening around him. "Yes! So what are you go to do, kill me?" He said again. "You medium gods have gone too far." The god of war said as break his table with his hands and point at the god of rebirth across the hall. "What are you going to do? We are ready to fight!" The god of mystic arts, a quiet medium god finally spoke out.
"Cousin, you haven't answered my question. Are you going to kill me just like how you killed your sons because they said you were incompetent?" The god of rebirth said again. "You have gone too far!" Zeus Shouted and conjured a huge lightening ball at the god of rebirth. "Try harder!" The god of mystic arts said as he used his dragon armour to protect the god of birth from Zeus lightening ball. "So you want to really challenge us?" The god of war said and then jump into the little battle by striking the god of mystic with fire.
"AHHHHH!" The god of mystic arts shouted after the god of war fire magic hits him to the ground. "You attacked me without me knowing. You upper goddess are shameless." The god of mystic arts who was on the floor holding his chest said. "You shouldn't have challenge an upper god if you are not prepare for a surprise attack." The god of war said and look at the god of mystic art with pity. "You..." The god of mystic wanted to say something but the god of rebrith interrupted him. "Enough....!" The god of rebrith Interrupted what the god of mystic arts was about to say. "I can handle this on my own." He turn his face and said to the medium gods and the god of mystic arts.
The god of mystic arts who was wounded on the floor couldn't protect the god of rebrirth so everybody waited to see what was going to happen between Zeus and the god of rebirth. "...So how did you kill your sons Zeus?" The god of rebirth turn back to Zeus and said. "You dare ask me that?.. you medium god" Zeus said as he conjure up one of his most powerful magic, the lightening spear and was ready to use it to strike the god of rebirth.
"He has totally cross the line!" The god of mystic arts says as he slowly stand up. "Zeus you know you can't kill another god" the god of music reminds him. "Let him come at me, I want to see what extent he can go just to be respected" the god of rebirth said and he provoke Zeus the more. "AHHHHH!" Zeus shouted and throw it's lightening spear at the god of rebirth. "NO!" The goddess of wild life and other gods medium gods said as Zeus throw it's lightening spear at him.
The god of rebirth just stand and wait for the spear to come to him without protecting himself with his magic. "ENOUGH!" Aphrodite said as she magically appeared in her throne and stop the lightening spear from hitting the god of rebirth. She came with someone and the person was no other than the goddess of trickery. "It seems you were prepared to die, god of rebirth" Aphrodite said as she lean back in her throne. "I was only prepared to prove that the upper gods shouldn't be rulers of the universe" the god of rebirth said as he walk back to his chair and sit down. "Lord please come back to your throne!" Aphrodite said as she begged her husband to forget about what the medium god said to him.
"Fine!" Zeus replied her and vanished back to his throne. "You know I hold back because of you right?" Zeus whisper to his wife Aphrodite. "....So what did you found out?" Zeus ask, but Aphrodite shut him up by raising her palm. " ..Very well" he quiety said and waited for what she was about to do.
"Please, respected gods from different ranks have your sits" Aphrodite said and everybody on both who were standing before sat down, but kept their guard up. "Our dear queen, do you mind telling us why a lower goddess is being held with your magic?" The god of rebirth said as he pours wine into his cup. "That arrogant bastard!" Zeus said in his mind as he heard what the god of rebirth just said. "....The goddess of trickery didn't do anything against the upper gods, so why is she being held" the god of rebirth ask again. "She didn't do anything to offend us, but she did to offend the mortals" Aphrodite said and the entire gods in the meeting shouted and looked at each other in surprise. "Do lower gods have the power to go human realm?" All the upper gods mumble the question between each other. "Damn all you upper gods!" The god of rebirth said in his mind.
"Where is the proof that she interfere with mortals fate?" the god of rebirth ask Aphrodite. "Let her tell you the story herself" Aphrodite said and used her magic to carry her to the center of the hall.
"But how will any of this, fix our current problem with the chaos Pearl?" The god of music ask Aphrodite. "It will all be clear soon, just be patient god of music" Aphrodite said and then remove the seal spell she placed on the goddess of trickery.
"Okay! Speak!" Aphrodite shouted at the goddess of trickery. "....It all started when the deity of the west wind gave my annual favour to a Mortal girl named Princess Soul, and because of this I became furious so I plotted on how to kill her. I manipulated the oracles of the mortals and also bewitch the goddess of marriage, so that she could help me kill the mortal princess....."
"goddess of marriage why are you letting the goddess of trickery tell us this? Are you doing things so that the upper and lower gods will look down on us?" The god of rebrith said as he interrupts the goddess of trickery confession. "Please be patient and let the goddess of trickery finished what she was saying. "Fine!" The god of rebrith said and kept quiet.
"I thought I successfully killed the princess, when I trick the father of the mortal princess to sacrifice he's daughter, but after some years my favours didn't came back to me, so I went to Hades..."
"HUH! She did what?!" All the gods in the meeting hall loudly ask themselves. "You dare associate yourself with Hades?!" The god of war shouted at the goddess of trickery. "She should be punish!" The god of sun said. "She should be stripped of her title!" The goddess of wildlife said. "Please gods!" Aphrodite shouted and the entire hall went quiet. "Let the lower goddess finish!" She said and then conjure grades into her hand and ate them.
"I promised Hades that I would bring him a good gift if he can tell me if the spirit of the mortal girl I thought was dead came to the underworld. He said she wasn't dead and she till leaves. So as I left I promised to bring the gift to him within a few days.... After leaving the underworld, I then found out that this mortal girl was living with the god of love......."
"What?!" The entire gods in the hall shouted again. "HAHAHAHA! So even the queen of the upper gods son also interfere with a mortal's fate and even took her into his palace." The god of rebirth laughed out loud and pour more wine into his cup. "We all know the rules, no immortal should interfere with the fate of a Mortal, but Eros did that. Here is he? He should be punish for that" Zeus said as he looked at his wife. "PATIENCE my Lord!" Aphrodite softly said to Zeus.
"Go on!" Aphrodite shouted at the goddess of trickery. "So after finding out that she was at
Eros palace all this time, i allied myself with the deity of the East wind and told him to spy on Eros in his palace in order to know when he will leave his palace, so that we can kidnap the mortal girl. But the Deity of the East wind came back with a different news that the mortal girl was coming back to the mortal realm to see her father. So I should that opportunity to kidnap her by using dark magic....."
"Dear lord!" The god of music said. "Dark magic was banned from all the nine realms how did you.....?" The god of the seas ask her. "I sacrificed thousands of people in Inorder to forge the dark magic" The goddess of trickery revealed.
"WHAT?!" the hall shakes with the voices of the upper and medium gods. "Why haven't this goddess being beheaded?" The goddess of flowers, one of the medium goddesses said. "She really crossed the line!" god of mystic arts added. "No god is allowed to kill or sacrificed people" the goddess of Justice said as he shakes her head and pour more wine in her cup.
"LET HER FINISH !" Aphrodite shouted and the entire hall got instantly quiet again. "So I kidnapped the mortal princess from her kingdom in the Mortal realm and took my favours from her with my powers, but after doing that I realized that the mortal was still alive and my powers grew incredibly, so I gave the girl to Hades and because she was still extremely beautiful he accepted her but kept staring at mortal and laughing until I left the underworld." The goddess of trickery said and bend down her head.
"How did all this happened under our noses?" Zeus said. "It appears that the vigilantes deities isn't during their job properly" the god of rebirth said. "So tell me, isn't the vigilantes deities supposed to be under you, god of the sun?" The god of rebirth said as he stared at the upper gods at the other side of the hall. "You dare accuse me of being incompetent?" The god of sun shouted and stand up. "I didn't say that dear god of sun" the god of rebirth said and drank is cup of wine. "You arrogant bastard!" The god of the sun said and sit down back in his chair.
"So why did you bring this lower here to say all this?" the god of mystic arts ask Aphrodite. "Well, apart from her confessing all her bad and evil deeds they is more to her confusions that meets the eye" Aphrodite said and levitate to the middle of the hall. "What do you mean by that statement love?" Zeus ask her. "I mean that the mortal girl who the goddess of trickery kidnapped and brought to Hades is actually Dusa reincarnation!" Aphrodite said.
"IMPOSSIBLE!" All the gods in the hall stand and shouted. "We used the magic of mother fate and our combined powers to eliminate her, how could she reincarnate?" The god of war ask Aphrodite. "Yes! And if she reincarnate, why didn't I know about that" the god of rebrith said. "I guess you are the most incompetent medium god after all" the god of sun throw shades at the god of rebrith. "You dare insult me!" The god of rebrith shouted at the god of sun and they nearly fight each other.
"gods! Please!" Aphrodite stop them from fighting while Zeus sit in his throne staring into space.
"Damn upper gods!" the god of rebrith said and sit down in his chair. "Damn medium gods" the god of sun looked at the god of rebirth and sit back to his chair.
"I still don't see how any of this is connected to the mortal princess" the god of music ask Aphrodite. "Well, the mother of Fate once told me that every creature in this world deserve salvation and am sure that's why Dusa was reincarnate to a human." Aphrodite said. "Then where is the god of love and why didn't he stop Dusa when he had the chance" the god of war angrily said. "I don't think my son knew that Dusa was actually the mortal princess he took to his palace" Aphrodite defended her son. "Where is Eros?" Zeus finally said something. "I think he is in the underworld trying to stop Hades and rescue the human girl who is probably now Dusa" Aphrodite said. "Of course you will talk good about your son, even though he broke two rules of the immortal realm. They will still let him off" the god of wine finally said something. "He is right, the god of love shouldn't have involved himself with that mortal girl, now because of his interference with that mortal fate, Dusa the goddess of lust have emerged and the Chaos Pearl will also emerged too!" The god of rebirth angrily said. "He should be punished for what he did!" The goddess of wildlife said. "I know my sons broke the laws of the immortal realms, but he is out there fighting with his companions to stop Hades and his plans, while you all are here fighting and shouting like chickens" Aphrodite insulted them and levitated back to her throne.
"WHAT?!"
"How dare you insult us!" The god of war angrily said. "Calm down brother!" Zeus said to him. "Now we know the real reason behind the creation of the Chaos Pearl and how Dusa came back to life. I purpose we combine our magic and destroy the mortal girl and Dusa will die instantly. "She still have her powers to stop us!" Aphrodite said to Zeus. "Will we use light magic to kill her" Zeus said with Shame in his eyes. "Didn't mother fate banned every immortal from using that magic, and you want us to use it on her descendant?" The goddess of Justice ask Zeus. "Dusa have did many evil things and she have broken the rules of the immortal realms thousands of times, she even work with my brother Hades to kill us all" Zeus said. "We have to kill her before the Pearl emerge, and killing the mortal girl body and spirit, is the only way we can truly kill her" Zeus said. "What about your brother? Are you going to let him live after he tried to create the Chaos Pearl for the second time?" The goddess of Justice ask him. "I have a plan for that!" Zeus replied her. "Of course you do!" The god of rebirth said.
"I think we need to create the light magic now and summon it to kill Dusa!" Zeus said and the entire upper gods and medium gods gathered up to create the light.
Aphrodite took the goddess of trickery to the prison of despair for her punishment and east wind was stripped from his position as a deity.
