Chapter 218 217. The Gods.

(AN: Omniscient POV)

In a blinding white space that oozed divine energy.

A massive white gate that seemed divine with just a single glance. Inside the massive door was also completely white, with a round table in the middle and ten chairs around it, which seemed to as heavenly as everything else in the room.

It was a space which the system created, of course, with Eunomia's permission. It was a space where strict rules of non-aggression should be kept; if the rules are broken, even the highest-ranked gods will be punished, and by considering the amount of "intent" behind the rule breaker, their existence could also be erased.

There were ten highest-ranked gods or transcendent beings, and they were the only ones who had "permission" to enter the "Infinite."

If they had a topic of discussion and it was something they "needed" to be in the Infinite to speak about, then they could send the meeting request to the system, and Eunomia would look over it and, if it seriously was something of significance, allow the meeting among the highest ranked gods.

But this time, it was the meeting request from the system, and even Eunomia got the message about it, since even she didn't know what had happened that a part of her was sending her an emergency message.

And in an instant, all ten of the highest-ranked gods appeared in their seats. Though all of them had taken their own time to get here, it didn't matter at all since time was distorted in the infinite.

Odin, who was a one eyed bulky God, he had golden coloured right eye patch and pure white braided beard, wore golden-coloured body armour with a white furred cape above a chainmail armour, he was also wearing a golden crown on his head, with a spear in his right hand, sat on his seat with a majestic aura surrounding him.

Next to him sat Thor, he had light brown hair and beard, he had, though minimal, similar maze like patterns to that of a Orc warrior's, on his arms, shoulders, and chests. He wore a horned helmet to cover his head, left and right vambraces, left gauntlet, and held his Mjölnir in his right hand, and a cape on his back without any other armour to cover his upper body. He wore fauld, tasset, greave, and sabaton above a chainmail armour and cloth to cover his lower half of his body, he, too, had a bulky build.

Next to him sat Loki, who was now a woman; she had a green, revealing dress that looked quite similar to a maxi dress, but a lot more...unhealthy (?); she had light golden-coloured armour on her green dress; she also wore her horned headgear.

Next to her sat Argo, who was a "Demon of Pride." He wore a black suit with a small black moustache and beard and had a massive cross-shaped sword on his back, whose handle was completely black while the "T"-shaped blade was dyed blood red.

Next to him slept Kshipa, who was a "Demon of Sloth." She wore extremely comfortable-looking black puffy clothes and hugged a black pillow while two black furred cute yet ominous-looking rabbits floated around her.

(AN: Fun fact which wasn't so fun to learn, I recently learned that rabbits eat their baby rabbits if they are stressed or something. That was also the reason I chose rabbits here. x_x)

Next to her sat Lord Krishna, who is also called "Mayavi." He was an extremely handsome man with a bright smile on his face; he had an ocean blue skin complexion; he had shoulder-length black hair, which he had tied up into a bun that was adorned with a beautiful peacock feather; he was adorned with earrings, bajubandh, kadas, karambandh, and paizeb (anklets); and he held a flute in his hand.

Next to him sat Lord Ganesha, who is also known as "Ekadanta." He had the head of an elephant, a bright face, and a calming gaze. He too was adorned in accessories similar to that of Lord Krishna's.

Next to him sat Lord Vishnu, "The Preserver." He had a blue skin complexion; he had a peaceful expression on his face with a calm smile, which seemed to calm everybody who saw that; he was adorned with a crown and other accessories similar, though a bit less flashy, to Lord Krishna's, who was an "avatar" of Lord Vishnu himself.

Next to him sat Lord Bramha, "The Creator," he had four heads, facing in all four directions, he was golden skin complexioned breaded man, he was adorned similarly to Lord Vishnu.

The aura just their presence was releasing was enough to get a planet like the Earth to get destroyed, such beings have fallen from grace and now they need the help of "mere" humans to do something even they themselves couldn't do. Once everybody had taken their seats, the meeting started.

[The first topic is about the disappearance of "the prince," from the strongest race of demon beasts.] The system's words sounded within the space, in an indescribable voice.

Eunomia wasn't physically present, but since she wasn't really needed to be present physically, she hadn't bothered coming there yet she listened to the words of the system.

Odin had a dissatisfied expression on his face, Thor glanced at Loki and shook his head, Argo placed his legs on the round table with a nonchalant expression on his face, Kshipa continued to sleep, and Lord Krishna, Lord Ganesha, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Bramha still had calm and collected expressions on their faces, as if everything was under control.

[Abnormalities are appearing even on Earth after the constellations began to interfere.]

Again, the same reaction took place; Odin's dissatisfaction was growing continuously because, for whatever reasons, together with many gods that fell from grace, many beasts from Olympus also fell, including "Fenrir." Also, he had recently learned that there was even a few spotting of giants.

In the meantime, Lord Ganesha was lost in his own thoughts; actually, he had joined the meeting in the infinite because of his father's sudden disappearance; Lord Shiva, "The Destroyer," was supposed to be the one joining the meeting together with Lord Vishnu, "The Preserver," and Lord Bramha, "The Creator."

All of the gods that have fallen from grace, for whatever reasons, were on Planet Antinoüs, where the constellations were showing open favours, only because that was the oldest and strongest planet that's still alive. Now they wanted help from the mortals of Planet Earth, where people were too weak, so weak that the gods and goddesses were having a hard time picking mortals that at least seemed to have potential to grow stronger, strong enough to fight against the gods.

'Haa....' Lord Ganesha sighed inwardly as he remembered his mother, Parvati's, state.

[The final and important topic of today's meeting is] The system announced.

["Karma" has been unsealed.] The system revealed, and everybody in the Infinite flinched in panic.
