‘It’s… him, the fabled first phoenix. He’s… less intimidating than you’d think. Phoenix cuteness problems, I guess’
For so reason, I was kinda expecting him to look like Asmodeus being big and muscular. However, he has a similar physique to us birds albeit slightly more masculine. I guess it makes sense considering we’re all fluffy bundles of joy, but still. He doesn’t seem all that joyful at all.
“What are you doing here?”
It takes all but a mont for this guy to steal the show, power coursing through his veins and a conviction that can’t be beat. The thing is, there is nothing to convince us on. We don’t want to take the next step, it’s that simple really. Ares, Hera and Zeus, those three are dead so we can finally have so peace… maybe away from Lesbos Islands though. Cultist reasons like usual.
“Yeah, I don’t think that’s happening dude. Cheer up, Zeus is now dead so we’re finished”
Unlike with that usual demonic face, not a smile can be found anywhere. If anything, I’d say that face is of soone who wants a fight… oh shit.
A crippling aura suffocates this area flowing from the phoenix, forcing us to our knees. Sa concept to the admin privileges dungeons possess, just even more powerful. And this ti, injecting magic into that crystal doesn’t do jack shit. I’m desperately trying it now but it isn’t doing a thing.
Continuing on, all this guy does is flick his fingers, my storage is forcibly opened up and that demonic blade is tossed to my feet.
“I’m not using that! Scare us all you want, I’m not ‘ascending’ to a higher level or whatever that shit is!”
“Given what!? A couple horns and a few abilities? Buzz off dude and understand no ans no!”
‘There’s more to this form than I understand? It still doesn’t matter, just fuck off already!’
I know exactly where this is going when his eyes stare at Petra and he makes his way over to her. Just that sly look alone… I’ll spend the rest of my life making sure this fucker suffers now.
“You keep your fucking hands off her!”
“Whatever happens Ikarus… do NOT listen to him!”
Arriving only with an aura comparable to mother’s, an absolutely furious Aesa teleports over to us and instantly goes for his guy’s head…
“All Aesa can do is buy ti Ikarus, help should be soo-, urgh!”
Literally being tossed aside like a bug, Aesa is thrown into the wall by a shake of the first phoenix’s wrist. Like us, she’s unable to recover once his power overrides all of us. Fuck primordial Gods, man! This shit isn’t fair!
‘Damn it! Is this under lockdown as well?’
[]
‘What the actual fuck!? He can even hack into this?’
Already angry enough, his hand lifts up Petra’s chin making fu even more. It doesn’t help he’s smiling that vile smile, I’m beginning to shake with rage while Petra continues to remain strong.
“Heh… fuck you”
Smack! The phoenix actually has the audacity to strike my wife!?! That’s our thing! Only when she wants it… oh, just shut up Ikarus. I need to kill this fucker!
Just one look in Petra’s defiant eyes tells one thing… I need to bear with it. Unfortunately, I just can’t.
His dirty hands slowly slide down Petra’s hair, as well as grazing her neck, reaching a point that causes to explode with anger. I’m sorry but I’m ntally and physically weak, I can’t witness him placing his hands even lower…
“I’m going to spill your fucking gu-… stop, stop! STOP!!!”
“Yes… just get those stinking paws off her!”
Now that I feel broken, the power holding down recedes so I can finally move myself enough to pick up that cursed sword.
‘Hmmm… his neck is looking awfully enticing’
[]
‘Fuck you! You will regret this soday, dude. My mory and vengeance isn’t short lived’
Knowing I’ve got no chance, I pick up the blade and slowly make my way back over to the bearded corpse, all the while looking at Petra who still has that fucking phoenix hanging over like a knife on a string. We all knew this guy was shady but to actually go this far? Why the hell is this so important to him?
Petra’s hollowed eyes are filled with a mixture of happiness but also disappointnt, even Aesa down by that wall has the sa type of look. What am I to do, let him go even further? None of us have the power to defeat a primordial God. No… I’m going to kill him after.
“Can you at least explain to what is the point of this is? Why get so forceful?”
With the last of the phoenix’s words, I sluggishly get closer to stealing Zeus’s power… but then, darkness. Pure, unsaturated darkness. Zeus’s entire palace disappears into a place of nothing.
Not even in the void nor a dungeon, I presu the four of us are sent to a place of pure nothingness. It’s honestly freaky as hell, the thought of only existing as a consciousness without any sort of form. At least with the void, it feels like there’s a physical surface to walk upon. I don’t think I even have a body inside this place.
But then, a single orb lights up the lingering darkness alongside the shadow of a woman, also allowing our empty husks to garner a portion of our bodies back as well. The woman’s figure looks similar to a busty Petra… so it has to be Nyx. Don’t be looking at like that! I know my woman’s figure anywhere… or Nyx’s apparently. It also would make sense considering the darkness around.

(Orb of Fire)
(Nyx)
(Orb of Fire)
In a twist befitting of irony itself, the demon is forced to his knees while and Petra are now standing, I think? Right now, it feels like my body is half transparent, half real. If I weren’t confused as fuck what’s going on, I’d fully rip every part of this demon apart… still doubt I’d be able to.
(Ikarus) “Erm… guess speaking works. Do either of you care to explain what’s happening?”
(Orb of Fire)
(Nyx)
So that’s what this is then. The first’s phoenix’s greed is so great, he wants to wage war on the other beings… in order to surpass them?
“But this doesn’t make sense. Why are we needed to wage war on the other beings? We’re weak as shit compared to you lot!”
(Nyx)
(Orb of Fire)
‘Furnace leveller? Know I’ve used it on Deter and Zeus already, didn’t realize how OP it can get’
Huh, guess my system really is the best then. It’s just a huge sha I still don’t desire any more power even with this knowledge. The thought of losing who I am just sounds scary really.
While this is going on, the phoenix, or now demon creator actually starts to sweat green goo from that grotesque form of his. He really wanted to use us as pawns against the other powers. What a stupid, moronic plan. After what he tried with Petra, as if I’d ever willingly side with him in so higher power fight. Guess he would’ve kept Petra hostage for as long as he needed… I hope these Gods fuck him up now.

(Demon)
In the ti it takes for a pin to drop, the demon is snapped from reality… or we’re brought back to where we just were and he remains locked inside that place? I wish they’d just destroy him in so cruel and gory way, but I presu there is a reason why they can’t do that. At least we’ll have ti to relax for the next thousand years, I guess.
Two absolutely stunning beauties join us in the palace once my eyes adjust to the golden light, one of which is the busty Goddess Nyx back in her human body with soone else as well. I guess this is what that orb of fire looks like when visiting our world.
While the first phoenix had an heir of phoenix cuteness to him, this person seems to shine beauty, so much I feel like my eyes are burning! I’m seriously not kidding on this, it’s that sa feeling when you sit too close to a fire.

“Damn dude, are you trying to turn us straight or sothing? That… doesn’t really work, does it?”
Thankfully, Petra chuckles at my awkward joke because she can see this person’s beauty as well, not even sure if this pri has a gender. I’m kinda disappointed she didn’t get jealous because that would’ve been funny to tease her on.
(Orb of Fire)
You can say what you want about the other pri Gods but they definitely are professional and boring. That’s a whole lot better than the demon though.
(Orb of Fire)
“We’ve already said no, dude”
“I’m not sure that’s a good idea… especially if Ikarus can destroy or absorb all of your powers”
Petra has a really good point. If the demon creator wanted to use to do his bidding, then couldn’t I just use furnace leveller on them myself? For all they know, we could cause their destruction without the need of a demonic dickhead behind the scenes.
(Orb of Fire)
‘Ah, so it’s like the nuclear treaty thing. Mutually assured destruction so no one can step out of line. This world’s version seems to work more than the one back on Earth though’
(Orb of Fire)
“Sure about that? Pretty certain Zeus’s body will decay give it a few days or so”
Fun fact about bodies that have been sitting for a while, they start to stink pretty quickly. Give it five more minutes or so and Zeus’s sphincter muscles will relax. Every person has an arse after all, just so prefer to act like one more than others.
(Nyx) “Ti is locked inside this place, Ikarus. It has to be that way otherwise; Zeus may awaken soday. His body, nor the palace will decay so the offer they give you will always remain”
Yay! A real choice and not the fake semblance of choice which was nearly forced upon us. We can always co back and beco all powerful at any ti. Maybe in a hundred or a thousand year’s ti… we may look at this offer differently.
Both of us look to each other one last ti and shake our heads in unison as wlel as chuckle. As if we’re going to change our minds right now.
(Orb of Fire)
“Even though Aesa hates all of the power that be… target orb of Fire was the least annoying”
‘Oh right, Aesa is still here with us’
(Orb of Fire)
And so, the being related to fire slowly fades into nothingness. Is our journey finally over or am I forgetting sothing?
“So… what next?”
“There’s just one more thing, Ikarus. Below here, I can detect signs of life. That aura can only be one person”
‘Oh right, that prisoner Zeus was keeping. It’s finally ti to et the fabled oracle…’
