DIVINITY: AGAINST THE GODLY SYSTEM

Chapter 623 Return



Chapter 623: Return

"You think it’s safer, but is it actually?" Janus asked the Goddess of Destiny.

"What do you mean?" Goddess of Destiny asked.

"In front of the Lord of Space, even two of us aren’t enough, actually. He is much older than the two of us, isn’t he?" Janus asked.

"Older doesn’t mean stronger to that extent. He is more powerful than us but now enough to wipe out two gods at once before others could be informed. He isn’t your brother after all," Goddess of Destiny explained.

....

The Goddess of Water walked with the God of Flames.

As she walked, she seemed somewhat uncertain.

"What are you thinking about?" The God of Fire asked, noticing her uncertainty.

"Something is really wrong. I don’t know what it is, but I feel like we’re all going in the wrong direction. It’s as if someone is intentionally leaving us on a bad trail," the Goddess of Water said, sighing.

" I have the same feeling. I don’t understand why the Lord of Space would kidnap our sons? Not only ours, why would he kidnap his own son as well? Something is really strange here," the God of Flames agreed.

"What can a person get from our kids? They’re not even complete gods by now. And even if it was to blackmail us or to force us to do something, we didn’t get any such demand either," he further added.

" I don’t believe someone kidnapped them to force us either. That’s why... The communication device being left behind... The aura of our sons on that device, it’s just too convenient," Goddess of Water agreed.

These two weren’t the only ones who were thinking like that. Almost everyone here was thinking the same thing, but that also raised a question? Who was behind all these? And what did that person want?

...

Another day passed with no development. All the gods searched the entire world, not finding anything.

All of them came together at the end of the day to talk about what they could do next.

"I think we should go back and talk to the Lord of Foresight. He’s the almighty. He can certainly find out what has happened. And he can help us too. Nothing can be hidden from him!" The God of Flames suggested.

"That’s the only option we have left. I don’t believe the Lord of Space is on Earth anymore. We should really consult the God of Foresight!" The Goddess of Water agreed.

"Do you think that arrogant man would help us? He didn’t even help us when we all went to him for help against Chaos! He’s just too...irritating!" God of War declared, rejecting the suggestion.

"That’s because he said he would never interfere in the battles of gods. We have a different situation this time. We don’t want war either. All we want is to find the location of our kids. This isn’t a battle of gods! He must help us this time!" The Goddess of Water replied.

"I think we should try at least. It’s better than randomly trying to find our sons," The Goddess of Destiny agreed. "He can’t refuse us this time! The lives of our kids are on the line."

Everyone agreed ultimately to the suggestion except Janus. He didn’t involve himself in the discussion, standing like an outsider in the back.

"Janus, you’re coming with us!" The Goddess of Destiny told Janus as it was decided that they would go back to Heaven.

Since they were going back, she wanted Janus to come back with them since he had no reason to stay behind. Moreover, she was suspicious of him as well. If he had a hand in it, she wanted him to be with her.

"Sure. I also want to get to the end of it. I don’t mind coming with you. I’m also curious as to what he would say if he decides to help you," Janus agreed. He didn’t want to stay behind either since he wanted to keep an eye on them.

All the gods left the Earth and went back to Heaven.

...

Ryder’s flight had already landed in Egypt, where he spent his vacation with Alice and Shu, watching the beautiful pyramids.

...

Chaos sat on the mountainous planet where the entire scenery had suddenly changed. The world was greener and completely different. No one could even find similarities between this world now and this world before.

It looked entirely different. Except for the mountain, nothing was the same. The tremors continued with time and only intensified as time passed.

Soon, the entire mountain had split in half as a crack developed, which went straight to the core of the earth.

Chaos opened his closed eyes slowly as he stood up, glancing at massive cracks.

He flew inside the crack, going to the core of the earth. As he reached the core of the earth, he was able to see a body lying on the ground.

The body belonged to a woman who was dressed in a green dress. Her hair was also green now. As her eyes were closed, her eyes weren’t visible, but the woman looked like she was sleeping peacefully.

Chaos stepped closer to the body, going down on his knees. He gently placed his fingers on her cheeks, caressing her.

The woman slowly opened her eyes, glancing at Chaos, who was also looking back.

Their eyes met and didn’t move. The two of them found themselves lost in each other’s eyes, remembering about the thousands of years they had spent together in the past.

"Good Morning..." Chaos softly said.

"Good Morning," the woman replied, softly as she sat up.

As she spoke, her soothing voice fell in Chaos’s ears, sounding too melodious.

"How long has it been?" The green haired woman asked Chaos.

"Not long at all," Chaos said, smiling. "I’m glad you’re up again."

Chaos stood up with the woman and the two of them flew outside together. Through the crack, they came out to land on the green grass on top of another mountain.

"This bracelet... I suppose it worked?" The green haired woman asked.

"Hmm," Chaos nodded. "I still need to get the other fragments, and then I’ll be ready."

"Was it worth it? So much suffering all for that one goal of yours?" The woman asked.

Chaos glanced at the sky, sighing.

"It’s nothing. Even if I had to suffer twice as much, it was going to be with it," Chaos explained.

"Just a little more, and no one will be able to stop me. I would be able to achieve it. And now that I have you, it’s even better," he further said.
