6 Chapter 6: Olympus
"You're taking me where?" A childish voice said bewilderment etched into its voice, Aureolus tilted his head innocently, What was Olympus?
"Olympus, Lil bro don't you want to explore the world instead of staying cooped up in your room all day?" Sirzechs replied ruffling his hair with a small smile playing on his lips.
"I mean…I don't mind staying in my room all day?" Aureolus declared with big innocent eyes, What? Was he supposed to get out of the house?
Sirzech's sweat dropped as Grayfia who was beside him merely sighed rubbing her forehead, Her beautiful face filled with amusement and annoyance.
Rather than wearing a maid outfit Grayfia had switched to something more serious a sliver and royal blue color.
The dress was made of a delicate satin fabric, with a beautiful royal blue and silver design woven into the fabric, The dress was cut in such a way that it was both conservative and stylish, with a high neckline and full sleeves,
The dress was tailored to fit perfectly, with a slight A-line silhouette that accentuated the wearer's figure.
"And big bro... why're you dressed like a…what was that word?….jackass?" Aureolus said naively his voice so innocent that Sirzechs couldn't even be mad just face-palming.
Sirzechs had switched to a black and red suit, The black being the main color, The suit was made of a luxurious black fabric, with a sleek cut that accentuated the wearer's figure.
The suit was accentuated with intricate white pinstripes, adding a touch of elegance to the look. The suit was accessorized with a black tie, a white pocket square, and a pair of black shoes.
"I'm not…dressed like a…jackass," Sirzechs muttered helplessly to which his wife just giggled before walking over and bending down to Aureolus's height.
"Sweetie I promise Olympus has a lot of candies and toys you can play with, So you want to come with big sister?" Grayfia said gently, but still holding distance when speaking to Aureolus, Just a foot away from her heart.
"Okay...I guess if they have sweets I'll go." Aureolus said finally relenting to Grayfia's words and a promise of sweets.
"Good boy, Now stay with me okay? We will need to make your hair black just in case, if not mother and father may be mad, And don't call me big bro just call me Lord Lucifur." Sirzechs said poking his cheek.
"Dying my hair? Okay…but why does it have to be black actually why doe-" Aureolus was cut off by Sirzechs saying.
"You'll get more sweets that way." Aureolus shut up in response nodding like a chicken pecking on rice.
Sirzechs sighed picking Aureolus up into his arms and using a basic transformation spell to turn Aureoles's blood-red hair into pure midnight black.
A teleportation circle appeared underneath them, the group appearing in front of a huge sky-high mountain towering above the landscape, its peak reaching towards the clouds.
The mountain was covered in snow and ice, with deep crevasses and steep cliffs that made it seem almost impossible to scale. The wind howled around the mountain, adding to the sense of power and sovereignty.
"Olympus...by me I hate this place…" Sirzechs sighed hopelessly, They couldn't just barge into the peak of the mountain rather they must appear in front of it and wait till a god or goddess let them in.
"Well well well if it isn't Sirzechs Lucifer, The prince of destruction, The Crimson prince of blood, The wicked redhead, The red devil of chaos, The first devil god." A booming and commanding voice exclaimed, the voice echoed all around them as if hundreds of thousands were saying it at once.
A giant man around 8 feet tall appeared in front of them with orange flaming hair, Tanned bronze skin an admittedly handsome face, And a pair of pure flames for eyes that added a sense of chaos to his very being.
"Bi-Lord Lucifer Is he a jackass too?" Aureolus said innocently seriously he had heard Sirzechs say it once and now it just rolled off the tongue so nicely.
"Yes yes he is a jackass, That is Ares the biggest of jackasses." Sirzechs replied rolling his eyes as he set little Aureolus down onto the ground.
"Jackass? That's a new one lord lucifer." Now identified as Ares said with booming laughter as if finding it very funny to be called a jackass by Sirzechs Lucifer himself.
"But please my lord and lady follow me, Oh, and if you don't mind me asking who is the little one?" The god of war said his voice still bellowing and loud even though he didn't outright try to be loud and booming.
"This is Aureolus my future Adviser in foreign affairs, I decided to bring him along with me to give him some experience." Sirzechs replied quickly while shrugging.
To which Ares nodded as large teleportation appeared beneath the trio and him Before they were greeted with a beautiful sight of an extremely large and luxurious city.
The city was a grand spectacle, with its buildings made of pure marble, gold, and silver.
The structures were gleaming and majestic, towering overhead like shining beacons of wealth and power.
The roads were paved with golden stones, and the air was filled with the scent of expensive perfumes and fine wines.
Everywhere one looked, there was evidence of opulence and grandeur, from the finest shops and restaurants to the grandest of palaces.
Sirzechs just rolled his eyes Grayfia didn't have an expression but Aureolus immediately spoke his mind saying innocently "Tacky and useless."
Sirzechs just pulled his ear in response to Aureolus, Grayfia face-palming "Aureolus quit being a smartass."
Ares just merely laughed loudly a bellowing laugh with no regard for embarrassment, "Oh lord Lucifer it's quite fine, It just shows the child was raised right."
As the god of war Ares himself didn't particularly care for the loot and wealth war gave.
He rather represented the fight struggle bloodshed, and honor of war, His Roman counterpart dealt with everything else.
The trio followed Ares till they finally met with a pair of extraordinarily large golden gates, pushing them open to meet an extremely almost ridiculously large throne room.
With giant thrones made for 50-foot-tall giants rather than normal human-sized people.
There were 12 of these thrones each a different color and different materials, Each having different decorations.
The largest and the throne in the middle had lighting sparks coming out of each corner of it, Clouds at the top of it, and the material a royal blue, Truly even Sirzechs had to admit each throne was gorgeous in its own right.
Another teleportation later they were greeted with a normal-sized dining hall very similar to the Gremory dining hall but way larger, But rather than simple oak everything was marble silver, or gold.
Each seat was already taken by 12 people each of them handsome or beautiful in their own ways, One with long moonlit silver hair and silver eyes filled with coldness much like Grayfia's, another with white hair a large beard, and electric blue eyes that radiated power wearing a sliver ancient Greek robe, Another with sandy blond hair and pure blue ocean-like eyes reminiscent of Aureolus wearing a casual Hawaiian dress.
Each of them radiated power and immediately all of them got up their seats with respect and reverence for Sirzechs specifically.
The one sitting at the head of the table walked towards the group with a large grin atop his face "Welcome Lord Sirzechs and Lady Grayfia to Olympus as the head god it is my deepest pleasure."
"Please Zeus it is all mine." Sirzechs said with a fake polite smile shaking the thunder god's hand firmly and with power.
Grayfia also was greeted by the beautiful sliver-haired woman from earlier, her voice a melodic one but with a sharp edge like that of an arrow.
"Sister Grayfia it's been a while." Her cold expression broke into a small smile as the two "sisters" hugged.
"I've missed you Arty." Grayfia's expression became much warmer much like when she was with Sirzechs.
Aureolus just looked at all this with bored eyes annoyed, before yelping in surprise as two random golden-haired men appeared behind him.
One had sun-kissed blond glowing hair, healthy tanned bronze skin with pure golden eyes like pure molten gold, Radiating with sunshine warmth and power, A kind but mischievous smile on his lips.
The other man was much the same but more pale with curly dirty blond hair and molten sliver-like eyes.
"Whose the brat sirzechs?" The tanned man said holding Aureolus by the head gently much to the boy's protest.
"That's my future foreign adviser, my protege." Sirzexhs chuckled "Nice to meet you too Apollo and Hermes."
"Apollo Hermes! Have some respect for lord sirzechs, Seriously you can't just go along and touch random kids." A blond curly-haired woman said chastising the two brothers, Her strong gray eyes filled with annoyance.
"Poor choice of words sister very poor choice of words." Hermes said snickering to which his identical brother laughed out loud his voice like music.
"LET GO OF MY HAIR."
