Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Once upon a time, in the mystical realm of Japanese mythology, there lived a mighty deity named Susanoo. He was the god of the sea and storms, possessing a wild and adventurous spirit.

Long ago, when the world was still taking shape, Susanoo came into existence as a result of a curious act. Izanagi, the deity of creation, was washing himself in the divine river. As he cleansed his face, Susanoo emerged from his nose, full of energy and unpredictability.

As Susanoo grew, it became apparent that he had a mischievous streak. He loved causing chaos in the heavenly realm, creating tempestuous storms and unpredictable waves. This behavior earned him both admiration and concern from the other deities.

One of the most famous tales of Susanoo's bravery revolves around the fearsome serpent Yamata no Orochi. This monstrous creature had eight heads and eight tails, and it terrorized a village. Seeing the plight of the villagers, Susanoo decided to take action. He devised a clever plan, offering his assistance in exchange for the villagers' beautiful daughter's hand in marriage.

As part of his plan, Susanoo prepared eight massive barrels of sake and placed them around the serpent's lair. Yamata no Orochi, enticed by the sake, took the bait. As the serpent consumed the intoxicating drink, it grew weaker and less vigilant. Seizing the opportunity, Susanoo attacked, cutting off each of its heads one by one until the creature was defeated.

For his heroic deed, Susanoo became a symbol of strength and courage in Japanese mythology. He showed that even the wildest of spirits could be tamed for a noble cause. With his tales of storms and adventure.

Susanoo is also part of the Bright Three. The three most powerful figure of the Japanese Pantheon and the leader of it.

They are the one that kept the balance and peace within the realm and right now that very being ,Susanoo, is in front of him.

Marcus was in high alert. He has been here for only a short period of time but this time instead of being clueless like he was back when he was at the Camp, he made aure to learn every important detail in the Japanese Pantheon.

Marcus have been made aware of the eccentricities of Susanoo, that just like the wind and the ocean and storm, he was unpredictable.

"It's an honor to see you but I don't think I deserve your presence here." Marcus said with a pseudo polite voice. He was in the Japanese's territory and this man right here is the boss of it, so he used a polite voice to address him. It's like being polite to the owner of the house you're staying in. Seeing this Susanoo chuckled and spoke.

"Oh don't worry."

"You have done enough to guarantee my attention." He said out of nowhere. He laughed making the mood less tense.

"Well I am flattered but what is it that you want from me?" Marcus asked again, still keeping up his pseudo-polite voice.

"I don't like to play with words and I'm sure you don't like speaking in that polite tone of yours."

"So I'm gonna be direct. Be my disciple."

****

"Well hold on a minute, shit just escalated from 0 to 100 real quick!" Marcus broke the tense air and said in shock.

"Pfffttt puhahahahahaha!" Susanoo suddenly laughed catching Marcus by surprise.

"How long has it been since I've laughed like this HAHAHAHA!"

"Since things got too peaceful I started using that deplorable polite language over and over and I didn't even realize it until now," He said while smiling.

Susanoo is the most eccentric God there is in the Japanese Pantheon and you know that excentric people tend to use language more vulgar than that of a normal person or "God?".

Bur ever since things have gotten peaceful, his eccentricites were buried and only now did it resurfaced.

"Marcus Arkanghel if that is even your real name, you have given me a precious gift," Susanoo said to him genuinely.

"Well I'm glad." Marcus replied.

"Now that was out of the way let me rephrased what I want, I want you to be my disciple." The man said to Marcus.

"What? I mean why?" Marcus asked confusedly, then Susanoo paused for a brief moment and snapped his finger. Lightning curved up on his fingers as it flung into the air and took shape. In the air a figure of a man made up of lightning being rained down by arrows was shown.

"I recognize the arrows and weapons that were embedded in you when you came here, they are Celestial Bronze right?"

"I'm too familiar with them as I have fought against them a lot back in the days, and if I'm right then you must've had a huge conflict with the Olympians with you resulting in being gravely injured." He gave a brief pause for Marcus to digest his words before continuing.

"And I presume the reason you are here is to sharpen your hidden blades so that when the time comes to fruition, you will have your revenge, am I right?" And with that he finished his sentence sending Marcus into a dillema.

Now that someone has completely figured him out there was no other choice but to leave and once again find a new place to hide, he will have to leave everything. But now that he recalled his words, he did say that he wanted him to be his disciple.

"And how will that be the reason for you wanting me to be your student?" Marcus asked warrily.

Susanoo smiled at him as the atmosphere around them weighed more than it should've had. It felt like the air itself turned heavy, as if a storm is brewing inside the field.

"You are hungry for revenge… revenge against the Olympians, and I can help you in that revenge."

"You see over the course of millenia Olympus have made many enemies due to their arrogance and one of those enemies are us, we are always ready for a holy war and the only thing we are waiting for is a weight that can tip the scale into our side and you Marcus Arkanghel will be that weight."
