Chapter 30.5: Record

* POV Global *

* For years now humanity has been bogged down in conflicts of all kinds. There were certainly moments of calm but also moments of great debacle where all was not war and chaos. The only real winners of these times were none other than the main warrior deities sometimes known as Mars and Minerva. During the previous century there had been the two bloodiest conflicts in the history of mankind, namely the great war which devastated everything and the second world war which laid the foundations of a world ruled by fear. It goes without saying that through these two conflicts the power of the warrior deities was at its peak. But in the 21st century human-generated conflicts are no longer enough for them. They are either too small in scope or not deep enough in the motivations to generate any consumable power. Despite everything the need to own conflicts remains very present among these deities and Minerva owns 67% of the conflicts of the 21st century where Mars does not have all crumbs *.

-All this is Athena's fault. * He said angry to his assistant *. She has created a state of controlled war, it has always been her dream. As a result of the races, we both found ourselves weakened to such an extent that humans no longer dare to kill each other openly.

-But this kind of conflict still brings you power, doesn't it?

- I want more. * Mars growled who violently closed his book *. I see wars as savage as in the days of the Persian invasions, brutal conflicts like the crusades or even wilder wars like the China of the warring kingdoms.

-You aim far.

* The god of war dressed like a British aristocrat. If he had put on this outfit it was mainly for a good reason. He had a date with an important person. After changing his clothes he went to what appeared to be a period 5 star restaurant. At the entrance the receptionist called out to him *.

-Excuse me your name please.

-Mars Von Krieg. I came to see a lady. Minerva Von Krieg.

-Ah indeed you have a reserved table.

* Ares found his sister Athena sitting at a table in the distance reading the menu. Her form was different from what he was used to seeing, she looked younger and more vigorous. He was always the same physically. Athena had long hair falling over her back. Seeing Ares arrive she smiled at him but he remained calm and sat down at the table *.

-Why do you have to do so much ceremony to invite me? * He asked *.

-From the calm, dear brother, we haven't talked to each other for centuries. * She said *.

-Since Kennedy's death so technically 57 years. Stop beating around the bush and talk.

* Athena's eyes narrowed and she closed the menu before ordering food. Ares did the same and once their meal arrived they ate it slowly *.

-If I made you come, it was to discuss certain things.

-Is that so ? I'm listening to you. * Said Ares smiling *.

-The previous century ... You cheated.

-And here we go again. Since when are there rules in war already?

-We are the rules. * She said in an angry tone *. You can't just put your arm like that and step in.

- Intervene? Ha is the best. Who put the United States under its direct control already?

* Athena frowned as if wondering "how he knows" *.

-Haha you wonder "how do I know" is that it? I have done many things in my life but take control of a country like this NEVER.

- I did not do anything outside the framework of the rules. *She says*.

-But yes, all the countries of the Security Council, the UN and so on, it was your idea. You were so obsessed with your idea of ​​controlled warfare that you forgot our agreement. * Do not intervene in person*.

* As he spoke a dark aura was manifesting around Ares and the pressure from it made everyone tremble even Athena *.

-War is above all the supreme opposition between human beings. * He said, staring at his hands *. It's something totally unpredictable that shouldn't sort out or discriminate. It is the only time when all humans are equal in the face of death because war is what turns human life upside down more than ever. The best human technological advances themselves come from war. If you put yourself in control for the sake of avoiding human losses then you are only delaying the evolution of humanity.

* At the end of his speech everyone upstairs was shivering. However, he calmed down and the atmosphere returned to normal *.

- To hear that look like you love humans through war.

-EXACTLY.

-Me it's the other way around. I want to spare them the inequality of unjust and absurd wars that is why I remain convinced that conflicts must be controlled. You with your chaos you only wish the destruction and the misfortune of the others.

* Ares cut a piece of his steak and swallowed it before having a good laugh *.

-My dear sister stop doing your holy theresa. As far as I can remember most of your champions are all crazy or extremists.

-What are you talking about.

-Is that so ? Let us come back to the China of the warring kingdoms. Bai Qi of the Six Generals was one of your champions and yet he was ruthless. He had 400,000 people, families included, be buried alive.

* As he spoke the scenery changed them right on the day of the massacre. The two deities sat at the table while the soldiers around them dug the graves of their future victims *.

-Hundreds of thousands of people including innocent children. * He said, standing up *.

* His face sneakily approached that of his sister *.

-Don't you hear their cry and their tears?

* Even if on the surface she remained calm inside her Athena were curling up on herself. Bai's massacre was one of her biggest failures.

- You're not even blinking. * He said sitting down *. It is indeed my sister the goddess of war.

-Bai Qi was necessary for the unification of China.

-That's why you bless the nation of Qin isn't it? Thanks to your support many talents have emerged from there. You broke the balance of the war and reunited everyone.

-Your ideal world of war having collapsed you had to look elsewhere.

-That said dear sister Qin Shi Huang was not clean either. * He said with a smile *. Decidedly you were making bad choices at the time.

-We are not here to talk about the past do you mean?

-Nothing I just tell myself that in view of your palmares you are not afraid? What if your current champion was like Bai Qi or Vlad the Impaler.

* The goddess remembered her last outing to the library, the books that Seb had chosen were about these madmen *.

-What matters is that it satisfies me. * She retorted *.

-In bed ? * He asked smiling *.

* She threw him a glass of wine which he narrowly dodged and smiled. One of the waiters immediately arrived *.

-Madame Von Krieg.

-No it is nothing. Bring me another drink.

* She stared at Ares who was smiling but he stopped smiling and crossed his arms and legs *.

-If I remember correctly during the second war your champion was Churchill, wasn't it? * Ares asked *.

-Yes and yours let me guess Hitler?

-Hahahaha you'll laugh but ... When I met Hitler he told me to go and fuck myself.

* Athena who until then had been impassive laughed out loud as if she was attending a stand up show. Ares lowered his hat to his face to hide his shame *.

- Stop it's not funny.

-Oh that if it's funny. You were rejected by this mustached dwarf.

-Yes and so what ? His fate line was really strange. I had trouble understanding her. At least until 45.

- Wait, are you telling me that .... You didn't have a champion during WW2?

-Guess....

-Ooooh damn ... Stalin?

* Ares nodded and sighed *.

-yep and he made a lot of work out of this son of a bitch.

* The discussion that was at the beginning of the aggressive peaks had become a sort of gossip between brother and sister *.

-Wow you're breaking records. * She said, clapping *. He killed 100 million people. And that's the ones we found.

-I never wished so much death especially since it was more in internal purge than in war. That's why I killed him in 53 I couldn't take any more of his paranoid.

-You have .... Haha I knew you intervened directly.

-The war was over I had the right ok.

-And for Kennedy? * She asked angry *.

* Ares sighed and kept his cool *.

-JFK was going to lead us into a disgusting era of peace that would last for decades. I saw his line of destiny he was more favorable to building peace than to war.

-Are you aware that if I sell you to the 3 sisters of fate you will find yourself in a shit even darker than the fall of the Roman Empire?

-I know.

-HE WAS MY CHAMPION.

-I KNOW.

* The whole restaurant turned again to its siblings who were debating a subject that had no meaning for mortals. These two gasped her heavily but calmed down *.

-Lee Harvey Oswald killed him. * Said Ares *.

-Nobody believe that.

-Yes but he did cause i allow it.

-He was a marines. And who blessed the marines before? Ah leave it on the tip of my tongue. Ah yes. YOU.

-It was during the great war and I have to reward the best fighters.

- Obviously they reminded you of the Spartans somewhere. After all Leonidas was your son.

* Ares slipped out a glass of wine at high speed and calmed down *.

-Okay, we both screwed things up. I apologize for Kennedy. But he had to die. Besides that did not prevent you from winning.

-That's why you're eyeing this world now?

-I must acquire power at some point with your disgusting Quo status. This is the first time that I have directly born a champion there. But I bet you also did the same in anticipation. * He said with a sly smile *.

-Of course. Even if it started badly for me.

-The first round will take place soon. I wonder who's going to go there first. Shall we drink?

* The two gods raised their cup of wine and raised their toast *.
