Perseus POV -
Because I wanted to express my gratitude for freeing me from both of my prisons. And I have a question. ''
I replied, '' Well I accept your gratitude and also you can ask your question. Questions are something that can very well disturb a sane mind and your mind is far from sane. So go and ask your query. ''
He ignored my jab on his mind and said,'' Why did you free me? I mean both of the times you were on an advantage. You could have taken anything, ask anything then why waste such a golden opportunity for freeing me?''
I said,'' Well even I do not know the exact reason. But You can say there are two primary motives.
First - I did it because I admire your work. You are one of the few supernatural beings who is not trying to hurt humans. Most of the supernaturals either they try to hurt the mortals or they are indifferent towards them.
Second - Because I really did not have anything to ask them. So I ask it.''
Zarathos was stumped after hearing my answer and said, '' I will stand firm on my opinion. You really are an idiot.''
I did not replied him and waved my hand to conjure a throne for him to sit.
I turned to father and mother to ask,'' So did the two of you got any result. Any way this particular problem can be solved.''
For the last some minute father and mother were talking with each other in a very slow voice. Even if I try then I can't hear anything. But before Father can answer Zarathos asked,'' What is the problem?''
And then we spend sometime in explaining the problem to him. After we are done explaining he started thinking of something. At this moment Father spoke,''We do have a solution.''
I asked impatiently, '' And what is it?''
Mother said, ''Percy Since you are the God of Life then you can very well create some one who fit on every criteria to be a good judge for all the souls. Someone who will not have any memories or personal experience and since the opinions are based or them then they will not have any and they can be a impartial judge for the dead.''
I said,'' I also came up with this idea but I think you forgot that anyone out of the divine nature cannot enter the underworld while being alive and I can not create Gods. At least not yet.''
Father said,'' You don't have to create a God. Why don't you create a soul with divine essence but not a God then connect it with your symbiote. At this everything can be achived.''
Well this is a good option. This way all problems will be solved. So I said, '' Well this is a good option. Thank you.''
At this moment Zarathos said,'' I can also help you in this.''
I was surprised after hearing this. Not only me but everyone was surprised after this. I mean no one expected him to help. After all he was not bound to help us. Then I asked, '' How and Why''
He said,'' Well I wanted to repay you. You helped me quite sometime and I have always wanted to help you but I did not know how. And now I have a way to help you so I just wanted to help you.
And how well it is easy. I will grant all of the personals you will create a very mild version of my eye ability - the eye of penance. They can use this eye ability to see all the things done by the individuals so they will not be deceived and can take a very effective judgement. ''
I started weighing the positives and negative of this option. But Father intrupted my train of thoughts. He said,'' This is a good option. You should accept them. With this.ability the chances of failure will be decreased to almost none. And also the speed and accuracy will be increased.''
I heard what father said and then turned towards Anna. She spoke in my mind and said,' Accept it. While I do not the reason why he is helping us but for now this particular thing can lessens there burden.'
After listening her I looked towards the others and they all nodded there head to say they agree with this decision. So I turned towards Zarathos and said,'' Thank you for helping us. I will always remember your help.''
He said, '' As I said you are an idiot but a very different kind. You care about others. Not out of greed or any other kind of motives just to help them. You enjoy seeing them happy and this kind of people are quite rare. That is why I helped you.''
Then we all talked about some small things. Father wanted to know about the expansion and if I have any trouble. I told him about all the things that have happened. I also told him about the Nightmare. When he heard of Nightmare he was quite troubled.
Even in his long long life he never encountered Nightmare so He was unable to help me in the gathering of information. He told me to be careful and always be ready. Mother was quite worried and it took sometime for him to compose herself.
Then Anna talked about her new inventions and talked about all those weird things I know and Understand nothing about. But when she started this subject I suddenly remembered something but I did not dare to cut her words after seeing the way she is talking. The passion and obsessive look she had when she was talking about her latest technology was quite terrifying.
After she was done talking I turned to Thor and asked," Thor father told me that you are building a big education center in Asgard. Is this true? ''
He chukled and said, '' Yes it is truth. After seeing all the miracles you have done and what you address as science I know it is an important field and the people of Asgard should know it. Otherwise they will become powerful in body but if they went outside of Asgard they will be easily taken advantage of. It is better to be prepared. ''
After listening to him Anna said, '' We really did like this decision of yours.''
I said,'' Yes. If you need any kind of help them you can contact us.''
He nodded his head and then we all continued the discussion of our normal things.
