I had a lot of things to think about and a lot of things to get done, but I didn't have the mind for any of that right now, I needed ti to organize everything I need and luckily I had that ti as the Dinsional Dragon takes us through the space tunnel to where it is Yntra.
As much as I want to curl up in bed and forget about everything, I can't let go of my responsibilities and other obligations.
Now I was in a ceremony room inside the Communal Temple, next to were my 3 Divine Servants and my sister.
"Where are Alice and Karina?" (I)
"They are..." (Hades)
"They are where they should be, just like the others, don't worry about your Saints, they are not needed to create Divine Heralds." (Elizabeth)
"..." (I)
I'm not an idiot, it's been a while since I realized that many of my companions are missing, even my wives are not here and until the mont I called for them, my 3 Divine Servants were not here either.
It seems like everyone knows what's going on while I'm the only one left in the dark, Elizabeth seems to be one of the ones responsible for it, so everyone must know except , Elizabeth must fear that I'll interfere with what the others are doing, which ans they're taking so kind of risk.
"Will they be okay?" (I)
"They won't die at least... I think." (Elizabeth)
"..." (I)
"The decision of what they do doesn't matter to anyone but them, respect their wishes." (Elizabeth)
"..." (I)
Sigh
"Okay, I'm not going to prolong all of this, I also don't feel like explaining so many things, so here you go." (I)
I point my finger forward and 3 lights co out of my finger crossing the foreheads of Hades, Haku, and Cinthia at the sa ti, this is information about my situation as well as the Divine Heralds.
After that, I waited a few minutes while their eyes seed empty as they tried to understand the new information dumped in their minds, as soon as I noticed the change in everyone's eyes they started talking.
"Do you understand?" (I)
"Yes!" (All)
"So I won't beat around the bush, of all those close to , Hades has the greatest Faith due to being my creation, but you two were an enemy and a victim that I helped, neither of you had Faith in before." (I)
"So I'm going to ask you two, do you want to continue as you are or do you want to try to beco Divine Heralds?" (I)
"I offer this body and everything I am to the Grand Master." (Haku)
"If the master wishes, I will do it." (Cinthia)
To my surprise, the two didn't even think about it, they responded imdiately as if it were sothing obvious, but I don't like that.
"You must know the requirents and risks, I have already given you this information, so think about it." (I)
"Cinthia, what I'm doing is asking your desire, it's not my order and I don't plan on forcing anyone to do it, it must be a decision made solely by you and with a sincere desire." (I)
Forcing soone to beco a Divine Herald is impossible if all the requirents are true, even if soone thinks in their mind that they want to beco a Divine Herald if they have any fear in their Soul or do not have a truly absolute Faith, these pits can be enough to ruin everything.
Hades has this absolute Faith to the point of religious fanaticism, he was born from a curse that I created, I can say that I created his Soul, I created his mind, I created his body and granted his power, everything he is was shaped by and he accepts this with gratitude not spoken in words, he demonstrates his devotion with actions.
So I don't need to ask him anything, his answer is more than obvious and even if I asked him not to try, I know he would ask to do it as proof of his fanatical conviction, but I can't say the sa about these two.
"My Lord, my desire is to serve for eternity in his na, this is my sincere will and there is nothing to consider." (Cinthia)
"You opened my eyes to how far I was moving away from everything I sought and granted the power I always sought with infinite possibilities, I don't care about things of Gods and so on, since I chose to serve you, I gave myself for whole to you, even my Faith is yours for having accomplished everything I could have wanted and much more." (Haku)
"I like that girl, but this Haku... her motives are bad, but I can feel in her Aura the sincerity of what she says." (Elizabeth)
"So it's decided, at least you 3, now I need to think about which Essences to use." (I)
"You can decide after getting the next Essence, but you must prepare in advance for the last Essence." (Elizabeth)
"I know." (I)
With that, I had chosen the 3 easiest candidates to beco Divine Heralds, which makes choosing the next ones much more difficult.
Things like confidence and Faith are difficult to asure or feel, they are very abstract to the point that the person themselves may not know and be unable to control these parts of themselves.
This ti I played it safe by going with the 3 with the greatest chance of working out, but now for the next 4 it's not sothing I can choose with just a little thought, mainly because of the requirents that make all the best options I can think of useless for failing to comply with any of the requirents.
--------------------
I needed to wait 1 month of travel to get to the other side of the universe, it was a big trip and I used it wisely, I tried to put together a list of those suitable to beco Divine Heralds, but I couldn't think of anyone, the absolute Faith part being the greatest impedint.
But I didn't spend all my ti on this, I knew who this trip was for and I knew who the enemy was, so I also trained as best I could during this ti thinking about Yntra's weaknesses.
As ti went by, none of the others ca back, the only family I had around was Nicole, who spent her days inside the laboratory and only ca looking for to collect materials such as blood, bones, scales, or horn that she was using to build the Hell Doll's body.
Hela was also around, but she spent her days imrsed in magic and curses trying sothing new, all my other children were missing.
Even my family mbers are not around, with the exception of Hinata who sleeps inside her necklace most of the ti, whenever I ask she says she is contemplating the stars, but I don't understand what she ans.
I also tried to see Hela's friend who is still in stone form, but I felt like it wasn't the right ti whenever I touched her, it was like my instincts were telling to wait and that's what I did, as for Freya, I can't even do it anymore entering the room where his body is, a natural energy repels my entry and when I tried to force my way in, a Fairy or a Spirit always ca to try to stop .
With that, ti passed and apart from my specialized training, I felt like I had achieved nothing but more weight to carry on my back.
-------------------
After a month I was in the Dinsional Dragon that was hidden between spaces on the threshold of the Star System where Yntra was, that place was a real fortress, half of the planets were Poison Worlds and the number of Insects flying was so great that they were like grains of sand in a desert storm.
I didn't even need to ask to know which planet I should go to, even from afar it was possible to see a planet more in the center from where what looked like the silhouette of a pink tree could be seen.
I was inside the Dinsional Dragon looking at this horrible sight while my daughter stood next to , her eyes glowed red and her Aura was not the sa as usual as was her posture.
"Hello Mom, I didn't expect to see you possessing my daughter to co and talk to ." (I)
"She is my Saint, besides, I have her permission to do so, I do not impose my will on those who follow willingly, I only do it to enemies in the bloodiest way possible." (Goddess Selene)
"You have Natasha's delicacy." (I)
"In fact, it would be the opposite, she and my daughters share traits of myself, echoes of my personality, be it violence, malice, and laziness or the wisdom of a ruler." (Goddess Selene)
"As your son, I don't think I've received anything like that." (I)
"Curiosity, a trait you already had in your previous life, but you must have noticed how much more prominent it has beco today." (Goddess Selene)
"Now that you ntion it, I can't help but see that point of view when looking back." (I)
"I like talking to you, but we both know that's not why I'm here, and being late won't change what you have to do." (Goddess Selene)
"I know..." (I)
Sigh
"I know this isn't all I have to deal with, but still seeing this level of defenses scares ." (I)
"Your enemy has beco sothing close to a God, but close is as far as she will go, she is a false Goddess." (Goddess Selene)
"The Soul and mind of those trapped within her feed her with malice as well as fear, such things are a type of Faith generating Holy Power that she cannot contain because it does not truly belong to her." (Goddess Selene)
"So the situation is this bad... a False Goddess..." (I)
Sigh
"(I have to stop getting into trouble on this scale... I miss the ti when my biggest problem was how to attack a Goblin village... when my life beca a continuous bet on whether I'll make it back alive or not?)" (I)
