Ch. 85: Final Preparations For The Journey
Ti passed by very slowly for , maybe because a part of was very anxious to confront the second Calamity as soon as I could. Over the past few days things have been a bit lively and noisy, every now and then there would be an explosion or two from Hephestus Temporal Rift Generator and we would all have to put it off together. Experience new stories on m v|l e'-
Hers had explained how a bit of the energy had activated one of Hers latent abilities to travel through dinsions sending him into the future. From that I was able to learn that Talos would succumb to her curse fully aning the curse was more than just a poison it was sothing darker.
I had happened to develop a bond with Hers or should I say Matt Spenser. He was a really cheerful kid underneath always lending a hand in my planning with his absurd theories of ti and alternate realities. Surprisingly most of his movie theories actually help led a lot and I was nearing completion with my plan.
Hephestus and I achieved a mutual respect and understanding with each other, though he just couldn't get enough of being a douchebag and making expensive jokes every chance he got. The temporal rift generator was nearing completion the only main problem was to pin point the ti and location we were traveling to.
In the end we ca to the conclusion that I would be sent back to a specific ti in the location where I naturally existed there and work my way through. There was also the problem with the coming back to the present but I was not a genius in that departnt.
Talos would always be on her work, she was such a workaholic. At tis I would share a drink with her and share her insight on so of her cases and she would update on the situation of Olympus. Usually she always found a way to abuse my intellect, I think she must have enjoyed herself a bit in humiliating .
Her relationship with Hephestus beca a bit better but still strained, but she was much more open with Hers than she was with . Being a quiet goddess she still showed a bit of admiration for us. To think she would beco a mindless monster in the future.
The situation on Olympus took an unbelievable turn none of use could have foreshadowed. Zeus beca mad and proposed absolute rule over the entire of Olympus, there was a dispute and a nimber of gods died. The bigger reveal was that he allied himself with Mr Anonymous, I belive he must have being manipulated.
Another thing was that Hera died furter driving Zeus into madness, the black book got into the hands of Mr Anonymous and Olympus was set into a degrading state.
With the death of Poseidon the underwater kingdom of Atlantis went in a riot and was obliterated by Zeus fury. The underworld went into total chaos without or Hecate overseeing it.
The only thing that kept , us safe from Mr Anonymous was the systems Hephestus created that prevented any intruder. I guess that was why Talos was never hacked by him before.
I was witnessing a total apocalypse in both the god's realm and the human realm where the Trojan War had been thrown off balance by the intervention of Ares the god of war and other gods. Everything was a ss.
I had no other choice but to depend on ti travel as the last resort before we would be found out. I would absorb all the information I needed to before I could go back so I would know what to change in the past.
How did Zeus et Mr Anonymous and how was he manipulated by him? What exactly happened to him after I left him on that day? Was the circle really created by Hades and for what purpose? What are the curses and how do they factor in all of this? And the cursed eyes, they weren't popping up on anywhere I looked.
I pressed my hand on my eyes, they felt normal but they were far from it. One was the eye of foresight I got from Protheus that allows to see seconds into the future. And the other one was the eye of truth that allowed to see things about people, things hidden.
I unlocked my phone and looked at the wallpaper and held my gaze there, my breath felt restricted at the image there. I found it under a safe folder on Hades' phone a little over a month back.
It was the image of Hades with a much younger look and shorter hair standing in middle with his usual deep worn frown and cold death state, next to him was Poseidon grinning widely and throwing an arm over his shoulder. Zeus looked undeniable cute in the picture as he sat on Hades shoulder clearly laughing in the picture. They looked happy together. Was this their last before things grew much darker.
I felt my lips curl into a light smile at the sight of it. I wasn't used to smiling in this life or my past but lately I have felt more warr inside. Maybe because now I have sothing to fight for— my happiness.
"You're unusually sunny today Hades." My eyes strayed to Talos who stood over where I laid on the couch staring up at my phone. Her eyes held sothing bright at . "Let's talk about going back in ti."
I raised my head slightly and dropped it from being too tired. "What about is?"
"I'm going with you." I swear I saw a flicker of a faint smile show on her face.
"And why do you think I would want to take you with ?" I asked boldly.
She sighed in a shallow tone and said. "We are associates aren't we?"
I scoffed. "Like hell we are!"
