7 CH.7 Broken Once More
When I finished screaming the earth started shaking and I felt something from the deepest parts of myself come out and out of nowhere multiple balls of blue flames surrounded the house.
After the flames appeared the ground split and an army of skeletons rose from the very earth and surrounded the cyclops. I immediately knew I could control them when I felt a connection to them, so I ordered them to attack and attack they did.
But they dint any damage they just distracted the cyclops as it swung its club towards the advancing small army, I didn't just watch this of course with every new ounce of emotions that I was feeling I called the floating blue balls of fire and turned into a new scythe.
Without waiting for a second, I advance towards the cyclops and swipe towards its legs not caring about the skeletons, it dints notice till it was too late and my nose was exposed to the smell of burning and charred flesh causing the cyclops to fall on the ground and roar.
I didn't care what this thing was feeling it could never amount to the pain that I was now feeling, and without waiting for it to breathe I jumped onto its chest and looked at its gigantic eye. If I wasn't the way I was right now I would've covered my nose with the smell of garbage and burning flesh, but I dint care all I did was just watch it scream.
When it finished screaming it looked at me and tried to move but it was of no use because I have summoned more skeletons and controlled them to hold him down, and because that dint holds down, I tied him with bared chains made from my shadows. After seeing the predicament that it was in it finally looked at me.
"why," I said in a deathly quiet but serious voice.
"Why what," the cyclops said to me.
After he said that I proceeded to stab his arm with my scythe causing him once again to roar. "don't play games with me cyclops, now tell me why you came here and who sent you" I said with anger in my voice.
"You fool no one sent us, the reason we came here is because of your scent it was practically calling to us, did you think no one would smell you demigod," the cyclops said breathing heavily.
After hearing the words demigod all the pieces of a puzzle that I dint know I was solving came together and with a snap, it all fit together. The god said I would meet my hero so of course, the only way to meet him is to go to a place where he exists, which means I'm in a world where mythology exists and not just a single one with the appearance of the cyclops from Greek mythology.
"What do you mean by scent," I said then thrusting the flame scythe that was already burning his flesh deeper.
"Ahhhh, your cent it was constantly sent out and then going back to your location, if it wasn't for that we would have never found you," he said with a smile.
As he finished that I cut his head off and he turned into gold causing me on the ground, the scythe disappears along with the skeletons, and the only thing that was left was me with my head down.
"it's my fault," I said and begin to cry.
"I'm sorry mom, I killed you, I killed the only good thing in my life, my one hope," I said and then started walking towards her dead body.
Out of her body came out a blue ethereal version of her floating and sleeping. I reached out and grabbed her hand, "I'm sorry mommy" I said crying.
"I fix this, I promise," I said looking at her.
In mythology countless heroes would go into the underworld to retrieve their loved ones, I just have to do the same, I don't care how long it takes I will fix this.
"Wait for me mom I swear I'll bring you back to life," I said making the roar thunder at my promise.
"Hoh, these demigods get cockier and cockier every day," someone said behind me making me turn to see to figure dressed in black in white each looking identical except for the different colors on their clothes.
"Well, what can you expect you can smell the Greek of the boy," the black figure said to the white.
"Who are you people," I said summoning my flame scythe again and protecting my mother's ghostly self.
"Ho, it seems that he is a powerful one," the white one said.
"If he is, can't you smell the death from him, must be one of his children," the black one said.
"What are you talking about," I said angrily.
"Now now no need to be rude," the withe one said.
"Enough of this let's take what we came for," the black one said and started walking towards me and mom.
"Stay back if you know what's good for you," I said threateningly.
"Hahaha, boy do you know who we are, we are the heibai Wuchang we guide the spirits to the afterlife, and we will not be stopped by a puny demigod" the black one said and disappear only to appear before.
Not even a second after he appeared he brought down his fan down on me causing me to lose what little energy I had in me to disperse making me fall to the ground. After I fell to the ground the black and withe figure came to my mother's soul and open a gate to a place that felt familiar, and they went inside with her causing the door to close and disappear.
As I was falling into the arms of unconsciousness, I saw the ground crack open and out came a man wearing a dark robe on a chariot of darkness being pulled by a three-headed dog. He came to me but before he got close enough, I fell into unconsciousness.
