Obviously, I pass the stupid battle royale. But even by showing off we can't find any gods who stood out, it seems like what I did hasn't attracted those lot yet. Maybe it's one of those clichés where I'll meet them either in front of or in the restroom. So I got there but nada, no Eros, no Chaos, no Nike, no enemies.
And here I am trying to confront them in a JoJo pose. I can't believe that I have to spend a few days up here. I then coordinate a meeting with Hypnos and Elektra.
"I currently narrowed down their physical location to 10." Elektra reported
"I got 8 and 5 overlapped, meaning it's one of the 5." Hypnos added "But it's pointless since most of them are probably among us."
"Some enforcers are doing a raid right now, Morpheus and the rest are following too, but I doubt that we got too much out of it."
I went looking around myself, they could even be the pets that is kept around here, they could be one of the fishes in the fucking koi pond, but they seem to be doing it very well. I expected a crash in the party right now, but no. Are they seriously going to wait till the finals or something? Or till the end of the banquet? It would be better to attack now, we're too tensed, it's better to attack now.
But as I was saying that, my vision gotten dark and I can hear a whisper in my ear.
"I've come, my child." the voice whispered
-She's here- Adam informed
The hallway that I was at where it was supposed to be crowded, I can no longer see anyone now, it's like I've been standing in an empty hallway. I started to feel dizzy and nauseous. I need Zach and Hecate, or else this will all be for naught.
I then felt a slap on my shoulder as I stumbled around, helping me walk and I turned to see this random god who had this...smile...it's Eros. Fuck, I can't think straight.
-Zach sensed that you're gone, he's coming. Hecate is too, just hold on for a little longer.- Adam informed
-I'm trying, Adam.-
I tried to say something but no sound came out. I even tried to talk to Dabria but it didn't work either, I can only talk with Adam.
"Chaos is the creator, Perseus." Eros chuckled "Even the curse of Styx can't protect you, but it seems like the curse was right about one thing...you're going to die young. We appreciate your effort."
I then left several bits of spatial magic residual while apply the fake 'Presence' on them so Eros won't notice for now, but its effects will wear off and Zach can use them to warp to me on wherever I go, even if he never has been there before, that was what Hecate thought.
I then got thrown into this portal.
3rd person view
Dabria sensed something wrong immediately as she can no longer feel Perseus' presence. Elektra and Hypnos sense it too.
"He was right about not splitting up, it's how people die in horror movies." Hypnos complained "Elektra, Dabria, you go after him on wherever he is. I'll informed that they're already here and has captured their target."
-Damon, hurry up, Perseus just got abducted.- Dabria commanded -Ragnarok can start at any moment.-
-Ok then, I'll gain control of all dragons, Diana prepare to heal the dragons.- Damon responded
Zach and Hecate was rushing around. Zach then found those traces of spatial magic residuals left behind and it seems like it'll be a short while till Chaos take over Perseus' body. Hecate then caught up with him.
< Luckily I can store spells in my spatial storage. > he thought
"We can't tell the others. Let's meet Nova in our secret meet up spot." Zach suggested
*****
I got into this dark void which I assume is THE Void with a capital V, where Chaos resides. I then got my arms and legs bound by chains and had my body stretched out, I was awake during the whole thing, but I felt weak.
"You are truly the son of a dream god, you should have fallen into a coma right about now." Fortuna snickered "That would have helped since it will now be a very painful process of feeling your soul being ripped apart slowly."
"Why not let my soul live?"
"We're not taking any chances, even if the odds are in our favor." Fortuna replied "You are the prophesized 'hero', and we can't have that."
"I just feel bad for Adam. He apparently got the answers to get to his so desired Eden and yet...he's still in there."
Adam is trying to delay them by forcefully pushing Eros into another timeline, but Chaos is interfering. I may not be able to use my mana, but I can activate my ring at anytime, this is a piece that I'm sacrificing anyway.
I expected something like this. I created ropes of fire that shot out to grabbed onto the surrounding gods, and once they made contact, it exploded into a burst of flames. I then use it to create some elemental golems which all the gods seem to have easily kill, I gotta struggle and make sure they don't find out about this body.
"Stop struggling child." Chaos advised "The more you struggle, the more painful it is.
"Hypernova!" I casted quickly as there is an explosion which Chaos somehow managed to contain it in a bubble of invisible mana and slowly shrink it, by then, I got out of one of the cuff on my right hand which I then used to try to free my left but Eros caught wind of that and shot an arrow at my hand, it knocked my hand and pin away, due to the curse, I suffered no injuries.
Nike then placed another cuff with this metal glove on top where I can't move my fingers to try and break out again.
"Fuck!"
"A for effort." Eros applauded "But let's face it, any last words that you want to get out of your system?"
