Chapter 302: The Fallen King
(A/N: Realm list at the End!)
"So it cos down to worshipers I never saw much within... never mind, I ended up killing so many without having a conversation."
"That was the point m'boy." Mimir suddenly said, "No god wants his followers to die. While spreading his na is important, the lives they hold are even more valuable. Especially in Midgard, where every person knows and already follows a god."
"But not everyone thinks like that." hades added on, "So Gods grow by death, the more they kill, the more they benefit, and their benefits are even greater since it's a full life they are sacrificing."
"Now that is quite useful info, but that brings back to Soloman. What does he gain, and does he have a following?"
"Soloman doesn't; he is what we called an Eternal Sovereign. They are being within the realm of Elder Gods. Since he is a God of Wisdom, a mortal Dao. For every person who grows in wisdom, sothing that happens no matter who you are, he gains power."
"Holy shit! That is broken!" I shouted as hades nodded in response.
"yes, it is, but there is a limit. The Known Bed of Chaos is broken up into four Superclusters, North, south, East, and West. And Solomans influence reaches from the north all the way to the west. His power is insane and is a man who you should fear." Hades stated, glancing upwards towards the heavens.
"These Twelve Plane, any idea why he is so infatuated with them? Sure they are powerful, but I would assu that a man of his level should be able to enter these Planes easily."
"Then you are wrong, " Mimir stated, "Aside from Elysium and the place those monsters entered form, you need to pass through a gate. That is why the horseman is so sought after by the Court of Nox. The Abyss can allow you to connect to every realm as the origin continent did. However, that is only a theory. No one has ever lived to tell the tale."
"I can enter Noctem," I stated, rembering that the Shadow Realm was simply a gate.
"True, but to this day, you are the only one who has ever been touched by Tenebrae," Mimir explained, causing hades to scrunch his brow. "Tenebrae's touch placing you on the highest tier in Noctem. Giving you access no one aside from you, hold."
Arriving before in an instant, Hades touched my brow. Feeling foreign energy wiggle its way into my brow, his eyes widen in shock. Backing away, he bowed to my surprise. "A Monarch of Darkness. How interesting to see one in the flesh." He said, shocking everyone.
"It seems this title I hold is far more important than I originally thought," I muttered.
Nodding in response, Hades sternly eyed , "Long ago in the Forgotten age, when the original Hades was cast into the Underworld, he soon ca upon the portal that led to the Plane of Oblivian. While the other gods played and began gathering their followers, I fought and killed through countless, being far more powerful than you can even comprehend. At my peak, I was said to freely walk within the Abyss without fear of higher being striking down. I stood so high up the only ones who could contest against were the hidden rulers of each plane.
"Many of them were Fifth-Dinsional beings, while those that sought to be Kings of Each Plane rely feeble insects. To the rest of creation, I was simply a mid god, but behind the scenes, all of Oblivian was controlled by . I hid my identity well, not wanting to be a part of any of the ss created by the Silver Devil and his Order.
Feeling I was not talking to Hades but a shadow of sothing. I remained alert and silent as his cold eyes grew clouded by a heavy mist of darkness.
"However, there was one being I feared. He was everywhere yet nowhere. He was only a prince, yet his power was so great as a fourth-dinsional being even I felt danger battling him. He was known by many as The Prince of Noctem, The Eternal Night within the Twelve Realms."
"His fall is not known, as he simply vanished. Leaving this kingdom closed. Many, including myself, presud he died. For so many of us were dying during this Era of Sin."
"Era of Sin?" I questioned, yet such a question was never to be answered as the dark clouds vanished. Hades... The Hades I knew returned when all of a sudden I bowed. I did not know why but I felt it was necessary.
"Your soul has been damaged." Mimir solemnly said, "You need rest."
Widening her eyes, the ever silent gaera rushed to her Lord's side. Noticing the stagger in his stance, she led him back to his throne. While the Lord in question slowly ca back to us.
"Hermies," Hades whispered, as the ssenger God appeared by his side in an instant shocked by his ashen appearance.
Hermies had relatively short red hair. Holding a rather juvenile appearance as he stood beside the King of the Underworld towering over him." Head to Olympus and seek out Dionysus. Have him prepare for a chalice. Tell him to make it strong, and Hers. Nyx is watching, so watch out!" Hades warned with a chilling smile, " No tricks!
Chuckling in response, Hers rolled his eyes, "Co now, uncle. I would never play a trick on you. Not when you look like this." He righteously said, slapping his chest. "It shall be done!"
Shooting a glance, Hers appeared in an instant, sniffing as he tilted his head, "Strange, you are immortal yet mortal? Who are you?"
"Don't you have sowhere to be? your uncle is glaring!" I stated, pointing towards the fiery eyes of the God above. Shaking Hers childishly laughed, vanishing once more.
"He seems fun!" Mimir suddenly said with a smile, "and fast! I didn't even see him move or teleport."
"I will retire to my chambers. gaera watch over Arsene while I am away. A soul fragnt of Hephaestus should be here."
