{System notification} God of War, Ares, hath been vanquished
{+one million exp points}

"What the heck! I just defeated a god and I got only a million exp? Cronus, you stingy ancient relic! I’ll get you for this!" Rex yelled.
"Verily, thou hast bested but the god of mere skirmishes, Ares. Prithee, speak not of billions in reward 'til thou doth lay low Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades. Until then, relish thy modest crumbs, mortal!"
"Talk normally!" Rex screamed
You’ve merely vanquished the god of brawls, Ares. When you manage to take down Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades, then we can talk about real rewards. Until then, enjoy your pocket change!"

"Okay, now I even hate it when you speak normally!" Rex facepalmed

Rex's eyes fluttered open, heavy with exhaustion. For a few seconds, his vision swam in darkness, shapes and colors blurring together like an unfinished painting. His body felt like it had been crushed under a mountain, every muscle screaming in protest at the mere act of waking.

Distant voices drifted toward him, muffled at first, like whispers through water. One of them was instantly recognizable, Jefferson's calm, measured tone...but the second voice was unfamiliar, smooth yet laced with an underlying authority.

"Finally, thou art awake from thy five-day slumber."

The voice of Cronus slithered into his mind like a phantom, carrying an amused lilt.

Rex's heart slammed against his ribs. "Five days?!" His mind reeled, panic clawing its way through him.
