Chapter 598 Cap 596: Servants Of Life And Death(Chapter Preview)

Name:Will Of Chaos Author:Pendragon_DNT
During the month of travel, I had time to talk more with Athena, and thanks to that I noticed that she was more shaken than she showed.

Abandon everything she's ever known, abandon her own family, abandon the dreams and ideals she once had.

These things took a heavy toll on her, she became desperate to find an emotional anchor.

She wanted something to believe in, a place to go back to, someone who understood what she was feeling and that's why she came after Vanessa.

Her willpower is commendable, she didn't give in to the despair of what she left behind, she chose to find something to fill the void in her heart, and she hopes Vanessa will give answers to her who can't see what to do in the future.

I still don't trust her, that's because she still has doubts about herself and her choices, as long as she doesn't have a path on which to walk steadfastly won't be trustworthy.

As for the Heretic God of Fun, the conversations I have with him were enlightening, as disturbing as the way he sees the world is, he actually believes that life should be fun.

He likes to see people having fun together, but he also hates people who ignore the fun in front of them for silly reasons.

He said that he chose to become a Living God for fun, but it left him vulnerable, because of that his body was destroyed and his Divine Soul was sealed in an artifact where it was proven of any fun for a long period of time.

He wants my help to get a new body, he doesn't want to take someone else's body, he wants his body, but I won't do anything until I'm sure about this Heretic God's character.

Halfway through the trip, we passed a town that had a Temple of the Blood, I went inside to pray to the Goddess Selene in hopes of speaking to her, which fortunately happened.

"You have made me very proud, Zenos." (Goddess Selene)

"You've been causing a lot of trouble, but you've also been bumping into things that others ignore without even realizing it." (Goddess Selene)

I was on a mountain surrounded by a forest of trees with red leaves, the sky was blue and there was only a strange sun that was missing a part.

The Goddess Selene was floating above me with a creature's body falling apart in one of her hands.

"Looks like you were busy." (I)

"I'm a Goddess, I'm always busy, don't worry about it." (Goddess Selene)

She disappears before I realize the scenery has changed, I was now in a garden sitting at a table with a glass of blood in front of me.

"Where are we?" (I)

"In my garden, the blood in your cup comes from a common Human offering, so don't expect to receive anything." (Goddess Selene)

I take the glass and drink, I have no reason to fear any scheme from a being far superior to me, she wouldn't need to plot anything if she wanted to do something against me.

"Will you show up every time I pray at a Blood Temple?" (I)

"No, only if it is very necessary, if you do it in the Temples of other Gods that have blessings, it will be the same." (Goddess Selene)

"You must know why I'm here, right?" (I)

"Yes, you want to know more about the Heretic Gods, more specifically about the one accompanying you." (Goddess Selene)

"But I won't give that information to you, the only thing I can say is to trust him." (Goddess Selene)

I look into her face, as always her beauty is breathtaking, but even admiring her beauty I don't feel anything, maybe it's because she's my mother.

Her eyes were clear, she didn't lie to me, at least I believe she wouldn't lie about it since having a dangerous God around could cause my death.

"Alright, if you say so I'll believe it." (I)

"But can you explain to me what a Living God is?" (I)

"No, but I can say that he is no longer a true God, his strength if he had a body would be similar to an ordinary person." (Goddess Selene)

"What would happen if I gave that Heretic God Fragment to him?" (I)

,m "It would help him recover from his injuries and maybe build a new body." (Goddess Selene)

So I already have a way to get rid of that God Fragment, having something like that in the Dungeon was making me nervous for a while.

"You should know that in a few days guests will come to you, follow their instructions if you want your plan to work." (Goddess Selene)

"Today are you being too direct with your answers or is it just me?" (I)

"That's because we have little time, in fact, none..." (Goddess Selene)

Everything around me seems to change when I see myself in front of a statue of the Goddess Selene as I kneel.

When I open my eyes I realize it's already dark, it seems like I wasted all day here, but at least I have a confirmation about the Heretic God of Fun.

----------

It took over a week to get close to the same hill where I found that gray Wolf 2 months ago.

I stop and look at the land of death whose border was close by and could be seen from here.

When I looked I noticed that the miasma had lessened a little, besides that there weren't as many undead as before.

Soon I feel a strange sensation, somehow I felt the energy in the area in conflict, and nature seemed to be out of balance.

Soon two people were approaching me riding monsters, one of these mounts was an ostrich with a cat's head and sickle-shaped wings, the other was an all white Golem that I realized was made of bones when I was closer.

The mounted people were wearing simple robes, one pink and white, the other black and gray.

Both people had their faces covered, but I noticed a strong vitality coming from one while the other looked like some kind of Undead like Ivan, not able to feel anything but death coming from him.

At least that's what I felt when my Aura made contact with them, they must be Priests of the Goddess of Life and the Demon Goddess of Death.
