Chapter 577: Unexpected Meeting With Bright Gods
Chapter 577: Unexpected Meeting With Bright Gods
—–
The Split souls discussed with the goddess about supporting her Demon Empire with all sorts of things, using their phantom clones, and distributing their people around, they were able to increase the prosperity of the people that she was trying her best to maintain.
Such thing was new and cheaper food products, new and smaller dungeons around town where people could hunt low-level monsters such as horned rabbits or giant rats only, supermarkets to bring both jobs and new ways of purchasing food, and more stuff.
Roneas felt like it all sounded pretty crazy, but she was so amused with them that she approved of it. The next days, Veronica and Ervas spent it spreading their influence in a variety of ways…
After just a week, the split souls had implemented two supermarkets, a lot of new jobs, a better-paid method system, cheaper products, food, and a lot of things that promoted hygiene, soap, towels, and they even began to create warm showers.
Additionally, many restaurants opened where phantom clones cooked all sorts of tasty food filled with nutrients made of powerful monsters that they casually hunted inside their divine realms.
Discovering that this Empire wasn’t the one where the ancestor of Anastacia was, they quickly asked Roneas, after a week, about where the other Dark Gods could be, or if she could give them some kind of map or anything.
Roneas shrugged it as she decided to just give them something even more awesome.
“Take this,” she said.
Roneas’s enormous hands handled to the split souls what seemed to be a compass.
“A compass?” they asked.
“Indeed! This compass will lead you to the next and closes dark god. I made it after spending some time, but never found some use to it until now,” she said. It was totally not because she is as terrible at directions and required a freaking compass to guide herself towards her siblings.
“Amazing. With this we can reach them rather quickly, right?” asked Veronica.
“Indeed, we can reach them quickly… Let’s do it,” said Ervas.
The split souls left dozens of phantom clones in the entire Demon Empire and even left some with Roneas to speak with her about their stuff and entertain the often-lonely goddess, as they set off into the skies once more.
By flying over the giant Wellerman, the split souls guided themselves across the skies as they admired the beauty of the continent. A gloomy beauty like nothing they had ever seen before. Certainly, it was something quite delightful to their devilish tastes! Or not? Well, it was fine by them, but nothing as fascinating and breathtaking as the outer space and the beauty of the cosmos and beyond…
As they rushed across the skies, a group of Gods was reaching up to them… right now!
FLAAAASH!
Suddenly, Wellerman felt a disturbance in the force, stopping its movements as the split souls felt the powerful presences of four great gods, they were bright gods!
“Bright Gods?! Fire, Thunder, Wind, and Life…! Have they come here to slay us?!” asked Veronica.
“I don’t know but if they do, we gotta fight,” said Ervas.
“Leave the support to me!” said Aurora at their side.
“GUUUOOONNN!”
Wellerman roared as it readied its phantasmal cannons!
However…!
“Waaait! Wait, wait, wait! Lower your weapons and powers, pleaseeeee!”
The voice of the cute Great Goddess of Fire and the Sun, Uphy, resonated through the battlefield!
“Eh?”
This wasn’t how they imagined her to be!
And even more, the other three Gods didn’t intend to fight either!
What was happening now?!
“So these are the two! Ervas and… I don’t know who the girl is,” said Phunana.
“A pleasure to met you lot, I am Chaneyr,” said Chaneyr.
“A-A pleasure…” sighed Kesheia. She was still rather tired
The split souls were suddenly surprised with four very polite great gods, bright gods to boot! They were supposed to be all just as nuts as Bestellen, but they were very chill people!
“My name is Veronica!” roared Veronica rather annoyed.
“Veronica! Has a nice flow to it!” said Uphy.
“I love the name already,” said Phunana.
“Please let us join you… We have deserted against Bestellen as he had gone even more insane, you two are the future of this world, your power and what you’re capable of doing, we saw some things briefly, but… We have come to make an alliance with you and the dark gods!” said Chaneyr.
The split souls were left speechless! They wanted them to make an alliance out of thin air! What was this all about?!
In the end, they heard their long explanations and many other things, until they finally understood what was happening right now, it was quite surprising, quite amazing too.
It was insane, even!
What was this even about? Why did the Bright Gods just fight against Bestellen? This didn’t happen in the original timeline! Could it be that the little events that they did affect the thoughts processes of the bright gods and made them rebel against Bestellen, something that had actually never happened in the original timeline of future Kritias?!
But then they realized it, it seemed that they all had been watching over them for too long, making them encroached by their guidance into becoming more allies! In fact, they were not brainwashed, but something within the guidance opened their minds from their timid and feeble selves, and made them rebel against their leader and tyrannical lord of the gods!
But what could it have been? What was that which made them be guided?
“I don’t know what it is, but we simply felt like it was the right thing to do to join you… But now that I think about it, it shouldn’t be enough!” sighed Uphy.
“There was certainly something within us that made us do this, despite the risks and the lack of knowledge we had about you two…” said Chaneyr.
“Perhaps you two are like children of providence, blessed to save heavens and earth from the evil of Bestellen!” said Phunana.
At this point, they were going a bit wild there…
