Chapter 1351 Cap 1349: Complete inversion of values ??part 1
?I don't know if I refer to him as God or Goddess anymore, but the feeling of being put against the wall doesn't change.
He told a sad story from the past, he talked about his children and even put a reward, everything he is saying and doing seems to be for me to agree, I also feel that if I refuse I could make him an enemy.
Even though he says that this is a request and the choice to accept or refuse rests with me, my instinct says that refusing is not a real option.
"I agree to help, but first I would like to know what reward I will receive."?(I)
"Locating the two Essences you need, between these two locations, one of them is going to be especially difficult."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"Like this?"?(I)
"First the service, then the reward."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"..." (I)
It seems like she won't tell me anything until I finish helping her son, I'm really afraid of having another child, I already have too many and I'm too young for that, but I don't have much of a choice here.
"What should I do?"?(I)
"I want a Dragon Seal and your heart."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"..." (I)
"You mean literally my heart?"?(I)
"Your Dragon Seal needs to be made using the Demon Essence you received and your heart needs to be crystallized while storing Your Holy Power."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"I also want you to use your Divine Weapon, the Cursed Sun will help regulate malice and the Fragmented Moon will help with rebirth, I checked the qualities of your Divine Weapon during the Training against the Creatures of the Abyss."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"The heart can be managed, but the power of the Demonic Essence is not something that can be controlled for now, the Divine Weapons are also out of the discussion, I will not help on that point."?(I)
"No need to worry about the one sleeping inside you, all the Gods belonging to the training against the Creatures of the Abyss noticed it as soon as you used your Divine Weapon."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"(I knew I shouldn't have used my Divine Weapon, but still...)" (I)
"I still won't use it..." (I)
"If that is your decision..." (Goddess Hernoth)
I could see her eyes turn cold for a brief moment, this God is not someone easy to deal with, but I can't continue exposing Niryna like this, I can feel her fixating harder since I acquired the Demon-type Essence, it seems to be influencing her growth.
"I need to go back to prepare."?(I)
"How much time?"?(Goddess Hernoth)
"2 days should be enough."?(I)
"I hope you keep our agreement."?(Goddess Hernoth)
"I always keep my promises."?(I)
------------------
Pov Diana's:
"Haaa... haaa... hhaaaa... again... haaa..." (I)
"Enough for today, your limit is 47% of my power, it's above average among the Champions I've had to date."?(God Fenrir)
"It's still not enough... I need to be stronger..." (I)
"There is a limit to how much power a Mortal body can withstand, being a Divine Champion allows you to greatly exceed that limit for certain periods of time, but you still cannot receive the full power of a God."?(God Fenrir)
"I need to be stronger, I can't accept it... I can't accept continuing to be protected like this by him... I want to be on the front line beside him."?(I)
Ever since Zenos disappeared after returning from the battle against the Creatures of the Abyss, everyone was worried until I received a message from the Wolf God finding out what Zenos was doing.
He was once again increasing the distance between us, that young Goblin that I beat in every training is now so far in front that I feel afraid to reach out and find that I can't catch up.
I asked the Wolf God to train, this place is already filled with Divine Power and Holy Power, I realized long before that my connection with the Wolf God was much stronger since before the Divine Tournament took place.
I have been training for two days to increase the limit of Divine Power that I can use, but it is still very little, the only things I can achieve are physical abilities and senses while the Divine Power itself is almost nothing.
"There is actually a way for you to become stronger without the limitations of being a Champion" (Deus Cratos)
"God of Beasts..." (I)
"Don't even try to kneel, the time has come for you to do your part, come."?(God Cratos)
"Wait, sir…" (God Fenrir)
"That boy is an anomaly, he won't follow the plan and Hernoth is already interfering, we don't have time for the plan anymore."(God Cratos)
"What is happening?"(I)
Before I knew it I was being carried lying on the shoulders of the God of Beasts, I didn't know what was happening or what they were talking about, but I was looking forward to what was about to happen.
------------------
Pov Zenos:
A day has passed since I returned, the first thing I did was meet with Ragnar in the Communal Temple where I performed his Divine Awakening, of all it was the easiest so far, but he remained submerged in the pool of blood that glowed brightly while a mist of miasma gathered on the surface.
I also gave orders to everyone and took care of the chaos sword and asked Karina to help me create the Dragon seal I needed using the Apocalypse Beast Essence.
That night I was on top of the mansion inside the Dungeon, from the mansion I have a view of the city that is always lit up at night, a true city that never sleeps.
"Why does everything have to be so complicated."(I)
"Because everything is always going to be complicated around you."(Alice)
"It can't just be bad luck, it just doesn't explain all of this."(I)
"Not to mention everything that is happening, my Essences that I am acquiring with so much effort have horrible names."(I)
"(If any of the characters I created for my games had powers with the same names as my Essences, then that would be a final villain or a creature behind the main villain.)" (I)
"Eclipse, Penumbra, Apocalypse, and Chaos... I don't even want to know what's coming, but I increasingly find myself more similar to those known as Demon Gods."(I)
"Sir, as far as it matters, the Goddess Kalistos represents Death, a natural end to all life and yet she is considered a Demon Goddess, in the end, good or evil are just Mortal traits."(Alice)
"The Lord is our God and always will be, don't limit yourself because you have the wrong impression about your own power."(Alice)
"You're right, but would it be too much to ask to have a power called the Essence of Prosperity or the Essence of Growth... something more joyful?"(I)
"..." (Alice)
-------------------
The next day I was facing the pool of blood, it looks like Ragnar is still in there and at the moment the miasma clouds are so thick they look almost solid.
I control the blood to come out of the pool and come to me, this blood is actually pure Holy Power condensed from everyone in the Dungeon.
As soon as this blood touches my body, it is absorbed, making this Sacred Power overflow as I make it gather in my heart, I continue doing this for a long time, and the amount of sacred power that I manage to condense in my heart was much higher than what I imagined, when I was at the limit, I crystallize my heart as I cross my chest ripping out my heart.
That kind of pain barely bothers me now, but the wound took a few minutes to close and a new heart will take a little longer to grow.
With that he had everything prepared, he was ready to carry out the Demonic God of Sin's request.

Pov Xagar:
I was sleeping once again, the same dream as the last 10 days, the training ground of the Church of Light, the place where I spent much of my life swinging my sword with a pride that I am ashamed of today.
"Every night, why do I keep coming here."(I)
Every night memories of those times seem to emerge around me creating images based on those memories.
How I was taught to put on the armor for the first time, the instructor shouting orders, the duels I lost so many times at first and soon followed by the Duels I won, the way I spent days and nights training my sword by a deceptive light.
"THIS ALL SHOULD GO AWAY!!!"(I)
I gathered all my power in my hand and swung as if I were holding a sword, then a sword appeared in my hand, continuing the blow that, colliding with the ground, spreads a wave of Demonic power in all directions.
With great pleasure I see the temples fall, the buildings collapse and the training fields become an empty crater, the beauty of this illuminated place became dark at night, leaving only the rubble of this place.
"What did I do!?"(I)
This blow now was different, halfway through I realized that I didn't know the blow I just used, my sword was as heavy as my fury, and yet the power seemed to travel beyond me.
When I looked up there were constellations in combat imitating the same movement I did along with others I didn't know, it was a brutal short-range combat technique, it accumulates power with each strike before releasing it all at once like a Demonic curse.
The words formed in my mind as if they had always been there, words that I knew the meaning of, a name for this technique.
"Demonic Sword of the Apocalypse... a blade that curses and severs all existence."(I)
"May your blade bring an end to your pain."
A voice that seemed to come from the stars, when I looked again at a pair of eyes of different colors that occupied the entire sky, these eyes were as sharp as a blade, and I felt as if I was going to be split in half just by being in front of these eyes that they look so familiar.
When those eyes closed it was as if the world turned off and with it my consciousness.
