Chapter 166 Reunion Among Brothers, A Forgotten Myth VI
A white flash moved from the eye, connected with the Goddess, and struck the surface at an instant. Faster than an ordinary lightning strike by many degrees, and made light speed seem extremely slow.
It travelled from billions of miles above ground to the surface of Terra, in less than a millisecond. That was speed that was trillions of miles a second. More than just a single light year at that!!!
BOOOOM~!!!
A large explosion that could be seen and heard from every corner of the Divine Empire disrupted the peace of the God Realm and brought a small magnitude earthquake everywhere. The whole Realm was shaken.
" " " ..... " " \'
\'\' " " ..... " " "
The battlefield was left in silence as everyone, including Code and Killer could only stare at everything in wonder and shock. None could yet take in the fact that, a Goddess, was made to eat dust in mere seconds!!!
"...L-Less than a seconds?" It was unknown who said that, but it managed to bring everyone back to attention, albeit still speechless, as they watched the majestic figures of the three True God brothers.
Each floating besides the other, valiantly gazing down at the World. Or rather, gazing down at the one who was presumed a Goddess. They all... stared down at a literal Outer God!!!
" " " ..... " " "
Through the silence, the three brothers descended and stood side by side. Su Han held his staff behind his neck and above his shoulders, with both hands resting idly on the shaft.
Allen stood at the center with his right hand holding onto the Kaumadoki while his left hand lazily rubbed his neck, he also had an idle expression as if nothing of significance happened.
Enigma was on the left and he stood with his hands behind his hand and a carefree smile on his face. His eyes smilingly stared down at the cloud of dust. His posture was straight and stable, making him stand out.
All wore mostly white clothes, Su Han with an ancient eastern white robe, Allen wore white baggy pants and of course still top less as usual, and Enigma was still in his ancient rome outfit, of course, in white as well.
They gave everyone the impression that they were unstoppable as long as they stood together. Herara calmed her breathe and carefully asked, also staring at the cloud of dust ahead, "Is it over?"
"Far from it." Su Han casually responded instead. "It would take actually more than that to defeat her, at most, she might not die even if we three fought her, going all out for a straight whole month."
"...."
\'She\'s that strong? What about that attack? Don\'t tell me it did absolutely no damage at all!!\' Herara thought in stupor, but did not dare ask out loudly. Afraid they\'d say she wasn\'t even hurt at all.
"Princess, please take care of the girl there, in the mean time we\'ll keep our little Goddess of Discord and Abomination entertained for a while... really though, is your father sick in the head?" Allen said, but he murmured the latter half to himself.
"Do you trust them?" Su Han worriedly asked. Enigma shrugged his shoulders and idly commented, "We can just wipe them all out if something happens to her. It\'s not that big of a big problem."
Not only Allen and Su Han, even Herara and Bella were surprised by his words, let alone his attitude. Enigma did not comment and just smiled in response to their shock, making everyone understand that he was serious.
"...."
Allen sighed and frowned. He had to do something before Enigma became a completely different person soon. And perhaps they should visit Cloud Palace after this, and do something about this Goddess of Truths?
"Dont worry, I bet my life that I will make sure that she is protected." Herara promised sternly. Enigma nodded at her then smiled at Su Han, "I\'ll willingly End this place if anything happens to her. No matter how."
He saw how affectionate Su Han was with her, he definitely understood it. It was the same affection Hestia has when she looks at him, and she more than once proved it that she would rather destroy the Palace than lose them.
\'Hey, without the Goddess, the fouth prince won\'t die right? After all, she\'s the cause of his death isn\'t she?\' Enigma asked in his mind as he did not forget his mission. As for the others, he had no explaining to do.
"Since you have a Casualty Type ability, I will answer that for free... Yes, he will be safe and thus the mission is considered a success... for now, I\'ll just give a blind eye to everything and reward you early"
"Mission successfully accomplished, you can recieve the "Eye of Abomination" from killing the Goddess of Discord and Abomination. You have gained the Enigmatic Divine Skill "Karmic Casualty""
\'....\'
Enigma did not comment and just proceeded to open the description of his new and the previous Divine Skills, reading through them while flying north. Su Han and Allen wordlessly followed behind.
After a moment, Killer looked at Rodriguez who nodded at her. She then followed after the trio, Code didn\'t even look back, afraid that he would hesitate at the gaze of his beloved. He followed after as well.
The area was plummeted in silence when the five strongest \'Demigods\' were gone. Until Hera looked at Herara with a frown, "Are you sure they are not within the records? No information about them at all?"
"Definitely." Herara obediently replied. Then thought for a moment before adding on, "But now that they are three, don\'t they closely resemble the God Triad? The strongest and most youngest of Ancient Gods, from the Forbidden Myths?"
Herara inquired to everyone, dropping upon some a new term. Forbidden Myths. Mythologies that seem to have existed beyond the influence of this world, written as fiction by even the Gods of this Era.
It was information that nobody knew of its Existence. Presumably, information from another Era far beyond this one. Even the Progenitors of the Gods, the Creators of everything, the Primal beings, or rather Ancient Origins, had no verification of such information.
Yet it was still contained. And for the royalties and nobles of the Radiant Divine Empire to explore to their hearts content. It was, after all, treated as nothing but fiction. A delusional dream of a certain fool out there.
"If that\'s so, then something is wrong." Rodriguez chimed in. The disapprovement between him and Herara were put aside at this moment. Everything was just a competition, no hard feelings between each other.
"What?" Herara frowned at him.
"Don\'t look at me like that baby sister, I\'m genuinely trying to fit in hete." He laughed slightly then added with a smile, "The God Triad used to be called something else before that, or amo wrong?"
"...You mean?" Herara frowned and thought carefully on his words, Hera also frowned and thought on the matter. Both girls knew a bit about history, but the one who knew the most was...
"The Four Extreme Emperors..." Reynolds blankly called out lightly, but everyone heard him loud and clearly. Rodriguez clapped his hands and praised him jokingly, "At least you are good for something."
"Eldest brother!!!" Herara shouted at him angrily. He laughed and spread his arms apart, "Sorry sorry, I just cant help it. Hahaha."
Hera ignored Rodriguez and instead thought out loud, "The Four Extreme Emperors, are nothing but ultimately, fictional... but then, if that really is the case and they are reincarnations of the God Triad..."
"That means there\'s one brother missing." Herara finished the latter half in shock.
"But isn\'t it strange? Big sisters, eldest brother, didn\'t the Four Extreme Emperors have an extreme condition each?
"One had the eyes that saw through Existence itself, one had ears that could hear the whispers outsides Existence, one had the tongue to change Existence at will and the other could judge anything within and beyond Existence through scent. Even a lie or a truth." Reynolds said.
"Could it be that we are wrong this time?" Herara questioned herself at this moment. "Either that or you were never right." Rodriguez casually said without even looking at her. Herara ignored him and continued to think.
"Could it be that the primal beings are being reborn?" Herara thought out loud once again. All this time, the young Heroes were quiet, as for Florence and the other Demigod under Reynolds, stood guard in silence.
"...That could be True, after all, the Four Extreme Emperors were one of the few influential Old Gods before the Beginning of this Era, the most proficient below the Older Gods before them." Reynolds said after a careful thought on the situation.
By Old Gods and Older Gods were not referring to the Gods of Odin and Zeus\' time. Those were considered beyond even Fantasy by beings of this Era, just like all fictional characters such as Iron Man, Superman and such. Their very Existence were rejected here.
What they meant, were beings of a much older Era than theirs. Presumably, those before the Era of the Primal beings, and possible before the Era of Creation itself. In simple terms, it was an Era beyond Existence.
