NOVPUBI suddenly wake up feeling pain on the side of my face and am faced with a Fairy smiling as she raises a hand to slap me, actually the second slap as she clearly gave me the slap that woke me up.
"You woke up?" (Layla)
"No, I’m sleeping peacefully like a baby after feeding." (I)
She gives me another slap that I really wasn’t expecting, then positioned her hand as if she was going to give me another slap.
"Are you awake now?" (Layla)
"Yes, I’m awake you little Demon, what do you want..." (I)
She slaps me again and leaves the room laughing as she flies out, then soon my other Family members enter along with Elizabeth.
Looking around I realized it was a crystal room where the only place I could see having such a place would be the Star Palace.
It only took a few seconds to remember why I’m lying on a bed and what I was doing before that, as well as my current state.
"How much time?" (I)
"Less than 2 hours." (Elizabeth)
"Did something happen in the meantime?" (I)
"No, that’s the problem, none of the 3 woke up." (Elizabeth)
"None of them will wake up, all 3 inherited Anomalous power, whatever that is." (I)
"Until I completely become a God, they are sealed." (I)
While talking to my sister, I got up feeling great pain all over my body and more, when I lifted my shirt I noticed the cracks all over my body and I also saw them on my arms.
Layla aggressive as always, but not stupid, she was silent and returned to her tiny size laying on my shoulder, I know her aggressiveness is just to hide her concern for me.
"I must have less than 3 hours." (I)
"What are you going to do now?" (Elizabeth)
"Since I still have time, I need to find someone." (I)
----------------
A few minutes later.
I just arrived at the front of the room and entered, Sakura was the only one entering next to me, I felt a little unstable and my bones weren’t exactly the consistency they should be. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Inside the room there wasn’t much besides a bench in front of a tree in the shape of a beautiful woman as if it were a natural wooden statue.
I walked there with Sakura holding my arm while another hand supports my back, then standing in front of the wooden statue, I place one of my cracked hands on her face.
"Freya, why do you do this to me?" (I)
"..." (Freya)
I could feel a turbulence in the energies inside the tree due to my words, so I was sure she heard me.
"I’m going to be unavailable for a while and I wanted to see everyone before then, but my wives are all busy, even you are no different, at least you’re still within reach... aahhh!!" (I)
The wave of pain this time was small, but it was still enough to make my body shake and energy go out of control, I could feel the blood leaking from my eyes and mouth as popping sounds follow the cracks spreading down my legs, if it wasn’t why Sakura would have fallen by now.
"Come on..." (I)
"He is sure?" (Sakura)
"Yes, I already left what I needed..." (I)
I turned my back and left, but there is no way not to feel the statue moving one of its arms, gathering all the blood I left in the room in its palm before absorbing it, its eyes open for just a single second, letting a tear fall before falling away close once again.
"(Was that enough?)" (I)
"(It was, she wouldn’t ask in her current condition, but she needed it.)" (Sakura)
"(Are you going to tell me what she was doing?)" (I)
"(No and you still have things to do.)" (Sakura)
"(Yes I have...)" (I)
Sigh
After I walked out the door, I stopped leaning like an invalid on Sakura, no matter how bad my condition is, I can still walk on my own, I just wanted to scare Freya for disappearing without saying anything.
-----------------
Inside the Communal Temple.
I enter the Communal Temple and find Karina already waiting for me next to Eva, the Blood Demon Empress’s eyes were shining as always.
Layla flew away before even getting here, she went to see her Fairy Temple near the mansion.
"You can save it for later." (Karina)
"No, let’s do it now, when a God asks for something, it’s never something simple, I’d rather know what it’s about now." (I)
"Where are the others?" (Sakura)
"Mrs. Silvia, Mr. Magnus, Mrs. Veronica and Loki, Mrs. Nix and Mrs. Adella who arrived later are all inside." (Eve)
"It’s going to be a headache, why is Adella here?" (I)
"She arrived shortly after I received the oracle from Akatosh, it seems she already knew about it and didn’t want to say anything." (Karina)
"..." (I)
The others and I go inside, we go to the main hall where all the Divine statues are and we go directly to the statue of the great Dragon God which is by far the largest in the entire Communal Temple.
The main hall was empty apart from the 4 of us who had just arrived and the small group that was already near the statue of the God Akatosh.
But when I entered these things took a backseat to what I was feeling, each of the statues emanated a unique presence that I could not only feel but understand, I could feel the will of the Gods and see some of them looking at me through these statues.
The most notable were the Demon Goddess Kalistos, the Goddess of Life Mavis, my Mother Selene and the Dragon God Akatosh.
I say this because the 3 Goddesses were literally on top of their statues, the Goddess Mavis was sitting on the shoulder of her statue swinging her childlike legs while having a veil covering her face, the Demon Goddess Kalistos had a detailed black dress and a veil covering her face while standing on the head of the statue, my mother on the other hand was in the place of the statue sitting on a red crystal throne on top of the altar wearing a suit of dark red metal scales as if it were armor, her appearance she was a little tired and one of her shoulders was bleeding.
I stopped walking halfway and wanted to go to her, but she waved her hand in denial and pointed at the statue of the Dragon God, when I looked at the Goddesses of Life and Death, they also pointed at the statue of the Dragon God Akatosh.
When I looked there and what I saw was a gate in front of his statue from which a presence was emanating strongly, it was wild and arrogant like I have never seen before.
I continued walking there and when I approached the group that was already close to the statue, I realized that they were all standing still without moving and with their eyes closed, I also felt that their Souls were not inside their bodies, their Auras were empty and forming a connection with the statue.
Only Adella who looked pale and a little injured was standing at the door I was seeing looking at me.
"What is happening?" (I)
"The usual, Divine shit and you’re responsible." (Adella)
"..." (I)
As I questioned Adella, I felt movement around me, when I looked I saw Karina kneel with her hands together and Eva put her head on the ground towards my mother’s statue, Eva’s body floated there and I saw Alice appearing as if wait for her.
Elizabeth was standing there doing nothing, she also didn’t get too close to the Dragon God statue.
Soon Karina emanated Divine energy and I felt her Soul in Dragon form being taken into the gate, so like the others, all that was left was an empty Aura forming a connection with the statue.
"They cannot physically enter the Divine Realm like you and me, so come, he is impatiently waiting for you who also doesn’t have much time." (Adella)
"Aren’t you going to say anything about what this is all about?" (I)
"There’s nothing to say, I know very little myself, I was dragged here by him while I was healing." (Adella)
Saying this she passed through the gate disappearing inside, I took a deep breath and did the same, it was a strange sensation that took over my body, it was wild Divine Power that went through my body and Soul completely.
When I managed to make out my surroundings once again, I was on top of what looked like a mountain, looking around there were Dragons flying and running in the distance, there were thousands of mountain peaks and an ocean of clouds preventing us from seeing below, above what was there was the vision of the limitless universe, thousands of planets among endless stars.
It was a strange and at the same time beautiful place, but I soon realized that everything constituted a tyrannical and savage virtue and my eyes followed the center of this will naturally where I saw him surrounded by the people standing outside that gate, my children, Santa and Family.
They are his Souls that looked at me.
"Dragon God Akatosh..." (I)
