Battle for the throne

An unknown year in true god realm.

Two figures could be seen exchanging blows with each other while floating in the air, above what seemed to be the ruins of a majestic looking building.

After exchanging about 500 blows, within a second, both created distance between them.

After a few moments of waiting, one of the figures finally spoke up in an aggrieved tone, "Caesar, you have let me down. i treat you as my brother, we were destined to rule the entire true god realm. But look at you what have you done, you chose the path of slaughter, you embraced the darkness."

After a few moments of silence the same figure spoke again "Are you pleased with the power you have gained, after all you slaughtered trillions of people for it?"

"You don't understand, Thane. None of us is destined to rule the true god realm. As for those punny mortals, why care about them?, they have became nourishment for the accomplishment of my purpose" A few moments Caesar spoke with a indifferent voice.

"How low will you fall for the throne, you destroyed 21 higher world and 3000 lower worlds, killing trillions, do you even comprehend how many innocent people you have killed?" Thane yelled furiously.

Caesar chuckled and said in a mocking tone, "Thane, you never change, you are still the same as you were in childhood, a naive fool. You are still ignorant of the surroundings and the world we live in. They are just using you, *sigh* I guess they thoroughly brainwashed you. Even with that monstrous talent of yours, you couldn't develop your intelligence."

"And no I haven't just killed them I extracted Blood, Vitality and Intent, from those lowly mortals. I used those 21 higher and 3000 lower worlds as an ingredient for the accomplishment for of my purpose"

Looking towards his neck chain, Caesar said in a melancholic tone "HeHe...HaHaHaHa..... with this i will be able to get the throne, become the true ruler of true god realm."

For a moment Thane shook in anger but gradually calmed down. Summoning his soul weapon, an elegant golden sword long sword, he said,

"Your tongue is as sharp as ever, Caesar. I guess fighting to death is the only way we can stop you."

Suddenly Thanes aura changed. His gaze was like that of an emperor who looked down to all.

Tsar said in an excited tone " Let's end this the old way than.....my dear friend."

"I wonder what will happen if i extract your Blood to strengthen my creation" While summoning his soul weapon, a Warhammer, he muttered to himself.

After exchanging blows for several hours two figures could be seen on the ground filled with cracks and cut-marks, nothing around them was left intact, everything around was in ruins. One figure was standing in a somewhat shaking manner pointing his weapon towards the head of the kneeling figure,

"You lost, Thane. There is my farewell to you."

Thane chuckled indifferently and said,

"It most certainly is, Caesar. So how does it feel, You are about to kill your only friend. I'm surprised, why are you so hell bent on killing me?"

"How do i feel huh.....I feel pretty excited. As for why i am hell bent on killing you, isn't it obvious you are the only obstacle between me and the throne." Caesar stated as he chuckled.

"Why.....*cough...cough* have you changed so much? What happened to you? You weren't like this before, you were kindest of all i have ever met." said Thane, as he remembered the past while coughing mouthful of blood.

When Thane met Caesar for the first time. Caesar was a kind boy. It was very hard for Thane to approach Caesar, as Thane was a weak, timid boy, but they gradually became very good friends.

"What happened to me huh...I was shown by the world that i am weak, insignificant and, I am not destined for the throne. I will not let all the pain i endured, the hard work i did to go in vain. If i am not destined....Than i will change the destiny, i will make the cosmos obey me."

"Hehe.....hahaha....and finally i have created it, my way towards the throne. There is no one that can stop me now and now it's time for you to di___" Before Caesar could finish an familiar elegant golden sword pierced his heart.

"how.....*cough cough*," Caesar said with disbelief. Before he died on the spot and his lifeless body fell on the ground.

"You were careless, I may be injured, Caesar but I am by no means weak. This is your end, Caesar" said as Thane pulled his sword out of the lifeless body of Caesar.

" *sigh* this is what you have chosen. *cough* he has done irreversible damage to my body and as for my soul, it's in a vulnerable state too." Thane said to himself before his body fall on the ground.

A few moments later a transparent-looking silhouette emerged from Thane's corpse,

He stated while examining his condition

"...I am in such a feeble state. I will have to leave this realm before long."

The silhouette flew towards the lifeless body of Caesar, he remained silent for a few moments before resuming,

"So, what exactly did I miss?... What was he trying to do?.... "

"*sigh* It's pointless to think about these things now; I suppose I'll have to return after I recover to unveil the truth."

The silhouette muttered to himself before tearing the space open and disappearing completely.

As soon as Thane left an ancient-looking neck chain that Caesar wore shook vigorously

It was an ancient-looking neck chain, it had a rough transparent crystal embedded on the black chain.

This was the neck-chain that Caesar took a glance at when he spoke of his creation that will help him become the true ruler of the true god realm.

It flew out of Caesar's neck and started to absorb every single drop of blood it could for the lifeless body of both Caesar and Thane.

Soon it disappeared, leaving behind the mummified bodies of both Caesar and Thane.
