Chapter 12: Relevation

SUNG HO'S POV:

I awoke, lying in a hospital bed once more. However, something was different. Seo-Jun was still sleeping, awaiting me to wake up, with her head in her hands on the side of the bed.

How was she not in a bed, and I was? Hadn't she been stabbed in the dungeon? Looking down at himself, it appeared I had no major stabs, however a few of my ribs were broken.

It would be better to just sleep. And so, I let slumber take me, as I lost consciousness once more.

I was in a room, a dark one. And before me, there was a figure. However, whenever I tried to make out who they were, my head was struck by a headache and the figure blurred.

However, the person began to speak.

"You want to find the truth, yes?"

"First, you must reach S Rank within the coming year. After that, you must journey to meet with all of the 12 Zodiacs. After you have completed that…."

"It will begin."

Before I was able to say anything, there was a flash of white light, and I snapped awake.

Seo-Jun glanced up at me.

"What time and date is it? Also….water." I croaked, my throat was dry.

After drinking a few cups, I was refreshed. It was 3 days after the accident.

"How are you not bedridden and I am?" I asked simply, this wasn't a normal occurrence.

"I don't know. After we were both brought out, I didn't have any wounds, yet you were collapsed on the ground and the Elf Queen was dead. Care to explain?"

"Eh….well, I read….."

"So you're telling me you read a book called 'Ways To Become An S-Rank In Three Days' and you got that much power? In fact, I know I'm not going to get a truthful answer out of you, so I won't bother."

The 12 Zodiacs…..

But not Gemini. Gemini was no more.

I, and my twin brother were what used to be known as the constellation Gemini, or 'The Twins'.

During the War Of The Divine, the seats of whom would become the 12 Zodiacs were being warred over. I and my twin were inseparable, and together we became a Zodiac. We were also known as Castor and Pollux, but our real names were Mikaela and Zach.

Then came the Great Demon War, also known as the Dark Ages in Greece.

We were able to beat back Mephistopheles, also once known as the 'Sky Demon King', and his forces, yet my brother sacrificed himself so I could kill him. With that, the constellation Pollux faded from the sky, and I, Mikaela, was left.

My brother was the god of light. I, the god of darkness.

Together we were known as the 'Dawn'.

The new beginning. The fact that the sun would always rise once more.

Me and him were once linked by an Ethereal bond, which meant that one could not live without the other.

Yet in his final moments, he found a way to sever that bond. And I was able to live.

We Gods are immortal. Yet that doesn't me we are invulnerable. And I think some of us seem to forget that, but Zach's sacrifice engraved it into my head.

However, now, as a mortal, I have the right to get revenge on the gods. Gods cannot kill gods without a reason; this rule was made to stop war. They must send their avatar to kill the other God's avatar, and that will end the struggle. Gods treat humans like toys and playthings. Some are nice to them, but most believe them to be a primitive species.

I was once a human. Before I was a god, of course.

But as a human once more, I now have the freedom, and the ways to gain strength and revenge.

To become a God-Slayer.
