The True Goddess held on to Selina's neck with very little pity in her eyes. Her grip was like a powerful vice, and no matter how hard Selina tried, she could not break away. The True Goddess's disregard of her abilities was striking; and this could be revealed in the fact that the proud goddess hadn't bothered to strip Selina off the hold of her spear! That showed just what the True Goddess thought of her opponent. Her message was so clear that it need not be said:

"Even with that in your hand, you pose no threat to me!"

This was a great insult to any warrior. This was enough to break the pride of any man. However, Selina was no man. She was a woman who was facing a deity much stronger than herself. Being able to stand up to the True Goddess for as long as she had was enough of an achievement, much less doing so at her young age. This wouldn't be enought to shame her. She held her head high as countless thoughts run through her mind.

Selina gripped her spear tightly as a ruthless l

    Frederick watched as the True Goddess slowly squeezed Selina's fragile neck, intent on breaking her in half. The pressure that the vile goddess had placed on him had been relieved somewhat, for the heartless woman who called herself an ancient goddess had taken the pressure off of Frederick's neck just so that he could lift his head and see what she was doing to Selina. Frederick's eyes were red within the large helmet that he wore. He understood why the True Goddess was doing what she was. It seemed that the ancient goddess hadn't forgotten about Babylonia's attack. The True Goddess was now trying her best to hurt him, and she had found the best way to do it too. She may not be informed of the relationship that the two - Frederick and Selina - shared, but she had found his weakness anyway. The boy watched helplessly as the body part which carried the noble head of his girlfriend was put under stress that was best described as 'godly'.Frederick felt despair, just like the True Godde

    As much as Frederick wanted to deny what had been shown him, he could not. His heart said no, but his mind screamed yes; for in the image presented, he could see the Red Potions scattered around the three. They hadn't even had the chance to consume the potions before they had been ambushed!"They are still alive, but barely," the True Goddess stated and the mist mirror dispersed, but not before Frederick noticed the slight heaving of their chests, suggesting that the True Goddess was indeed right when she said they were alive."Y...ou are....a...m...on...ster" Frederick squeezed out, trying hard to reject the image he had seen, but to no avail. And it was likely he wouldn't be forgettig it anytime soon - no matter what happened."Perhaps, but I am the monster holding your loved one captive," the True Goddess's vile character proved to be an endless pool of insufferable disgust. Her eyes flashed with happiness as she tightened her hold on Selina once again, forcing Selina to struggle t

    "Impossible," the True Goddess stammered as she struggled to find her footing. She formed a large energy shield in one hand to keep the strong winds away from her, and summoned another in the shape of a sword to anchor her to the ground as Frederick's power revealed itself to the world."How can he have this much power? Why does he have he power of a god?!" the True Goddess was dismayed by the degree of Edict that had descended into the Promised Land. Her Domain's power was cut apart immediately this power was summoned, proving that Frederick was either on par with her, or stronger than her! This wasn't the power of a man; this was the power of a god!*Scree*The World Will of Zandor revealed itself as a flaming bird that covered the sky and obscured the clouds. With a loud cry and a flap of its wings the world lit up brightly, engulfed in the protective warmth of the Zandorian World Will. The flaming bird looked down below, it's gaze intersecting with Frederick's. It gave an excited

    "Hephaestus?" Frederick repeated the unfamiliar name; yet his heart warmed when he mentioned this strange name. For some reason his soul was greatly uplifted by the name, and his heart grew increasingly at peace. However, that peace didn't last for long. The memories of Selina's broken body floating in the air came rushing back, haunting all the good emotions the name "Hephaestus" had brought."Is that a name I once possessed?" Frederick wondered. His eyes flashed with many unfamiliar memories that tried to take his Zandorian identity away from him; however, Frederick refused to be swayed."No wonder...no wonder...it's no wonder it left," the True Goddess looked a broken figure - inside and out. Her eyes flitted about and her arms remained to her side. She had stopped all attempts to remove the sharpened spear that kept her grounded to the soil beneath her back; well, it was more like she had subconsciously given up escaping. She kept mumbling to herself like a woman whose mind had be

    The Emperor and his advisors weren't alone however. Next to the Emperor was his young son, the heir to the throne - Fareed. Fareed was about nine years old and was yet to awaken the element of the Royal Family. However, he was talented in mind and body, and though he was so young, he had been ranked as the most promising talent of his generation. Of course, the Emperor discounted Jake and John and lumped the two anomalies together with the older generation due to their immeasurable strength. "Father, do you think we would live to see the light of day?" Fareed asked a question that was beyond his age. His eyes were fearless. Whether that was because he had little real life experience or he was indeed not afraid of what was happening, it didn't matter. What mattered was that he fearlessly stood before a blistering disaster and couldn't be bothered to feel fear!"I do not know son," the Emperor sighed, the grey in his hair extending to his temples. In this past year he had felt increasi

    "It is done," Frederick muttered as he looked down on the battered body of General Siwa. The beautiful figure that had caused he and his companions so much headache at the beginning was barely recognisable; in fact, it was difficult to describe the meat patty that was mixed into the soil below as a body; it was more like a fertiliser now.The soul of the imposter heralding as the True Goddess had been destroyed by his mighty hammer. His hammer had forged the truth out of a lie several hundreds of milllenia old. "I cannot believe that one so arrogant was able to deceive the universe that she was the True Goddess. Even more unbelievable is that she has people following her, thinking that she speaks the truth." Frederick frowned as the thought of several people following after the wrong person caused his stomach to churn painfully. The real True Goddess was too kind to build an army. That should have been enough to reveal the imposter to those who followed her. Alas, people always jumpe

    Frederick walked into the room to see a masked man clad in a long black robe sitting next to Selina. Although this man had his hood over his head and a mask concealing his features, his aura was full of vitality - the joy of youth. In the man's hands was a small bowl filled with herbs and a tiny pestle which the man's hands constantly manipulated to grind the unrecognisable herbs in the bowl.The masked man turned to give Frederick a cursory glance. His stare was directed at the hammer on Frederick's back, for he sensed the powerful energy within that unassuming hammer. He nodded his head in appreciation of the strange tool and decided to go back to work. His eyes returned to the ailing figure on the bed soon after, not paying Frederick much heed.Frederick's eyes squinted as he assessed the mysterious figure. The man wore the mask of Hidden Cloak, and his number was written boldly upon it. His cloak was also that of the Silver Wolves, causing Frederick to realise that this was the my

    Zandor stood outside the hut that had been his home the past million years. He had stepped outside to allow Legion and Frederick to bond privately. Legion was unaware of his true status yet, and it was going to take some time for him to regain his memories; however, Zandor hoped that befriending Frederick - who was Legion's best friend in the past - would help him regain his memories. After all, Legion had had his second Awakening, but his memories didn't come with them. It was going to take much more than a regular power boost to return the Alchemy God of the past to the present."The energy in Zandor is dense enough, and the clouds have shifted. The war is nowhere near being over. The Guardians must awaken as quickly as possible. That would be the only way to save Zandor; that is our only road of redemption."Zandor sighed as he gazed into the sky. The noiseless sky and quiet atmosphere was deceiving, but Zandor wasn't one blessed with naivety. He was the very soul of this planet, a

    “This…is amazing,” Mane’s eyes widened as he took in the sight before him.The young Supreme was seated on Roxanne. The beautiful dark horse had been granted the power of flight by Crystal who had no trouble casting a flight Lease on the lovely beast. While this was not a permanent condition, it would last hours, and that was thanks to Crystal’s expert command over Chaos. Any other person would have been able to cast this Lease for just under a few minutes. Mane was no exception to this. Even if his power was not sealed, he would not be able to use this Lease to liberally. If this Lease was that practical, it would have been popularized.Next to him, Professors Stern and Stanley, and Dean Desmond had smile plastered on their faces as they watched the Supreme’s gobsmacked reaction to the impressive sight before him. Behind the professors were the students, both old and new. While the older students, Kahn, Frost, Bel, and Maia were floating on their own, the new students had to be envel

    “What a brilliant welcome,” Poseidon slowly moved towards the teenage looking Zeus and Atlas with a broad smile on his face.The god of the waves floated elegantly upon a bident, his eyes briefly scanning Atlas before finding his brother’s immature figure.“You have grown weak, brother,” Poseidon chuckled as he slowly flew towards his brother.Atlas, who had been on guard since Poseidon’s appearance, frowned upon seeing the god of the waves getting closer to a much weaker Zeus. His figure flashed as he appeared before Zeus, shielding him from the gaze of his own blood brother. “You have fallen low brother. Now, you require the protection of a titan? Hilarious.” Poseidon mocked as he locked eyes with the delicate looking Atlas. “Of course I have fallen. Not only was I betrayed by my own son, but I also almost died. What did you expect will happen when one who is considered as part of the big three of Olympus approaches a fallen god?” Zeus did not mind his brother’s comments.Instead

    Days passed and soon it was time for Mane to leave the planet of the Celestial Emperor. Well, he wasn’t the only one leaving. It was time for the professors to return to their academies with their students – both old and new. In front of the portal that could transport them back to their academies, Mane stood with his friends as they bid each other goodbye. Well, something close to that at least. To give them some privacy, the other professors had gone on ahead with the students, standing a few tens of meters away from the Silver Wolves.“Our great Supreme, our captain and leader, the Unbended is finally leaving us. Whatever are we to do?” Abe waved his hands theatrically as he feigned sadness and pain.His words caused Selina and the twins to snicker. Only Aegeus snorted before shooting Abe a deathly stare. As for Mane, he could only smile wryly at Abe’s comments. He didn’t know when it had started since he had been away for so long in the Dreamscape, but Abe had become more easy goi

    It took a week for Godking to complete its assignment and soon, Mane was back on Planet Celestial. Walking through the streets of the capital, he noticed that he was receiving a lot of stares. While it wasn’t unusual for people to stare at him given his appearance and his ethereal aura, that was only on Zandor. One could argue that it was because he didn’t look like a Celestial, but that was not accurate either. Since Celestials opened their homes to others who craved entry into the God Academies, they had welcomed several different species into their home world. Mane wasn’t not out of place in this new era, meaning there were definitely staring for another reason.“You have become very popular, young Supreme,” Professor Stern who was walking next to Mane chuckled and said.“Hahaha! The recordings that were taken of you should have spread everywhere by now. Even those who were unable to attend the event know who you are!” Professor Stanley laughed heartily while striking the young Sup

    “You are still eating, even after all that happened?” Hildegarde frowned and said.She was looking at the boy who had forcefully taken her with him when he was returning to his realm with a disapproving gaze. They had escaped that world that had been prepared as his burial place. As though it had never happened, they had returned to the exact spot he had been teleported from – the kitchen. Hildegarde was confused about his current reaction.Seeing him biting onto his tuna sandwich caused her eyebrows to lift in frustration. It was the very same meal that Mane had made and had barely taken a bite of when he was transported to another world. And yes, that was not a dream; it had really happened. She couldn’t understand how the Supreme could be so calm after coming out of a life-or-death situation.“What would you have me do then? Toss it into the trashcan? That would be a waste of food.” Mane answered nonchalantly as he wiped some fish from his cheek.“That…” Hildegarde searched for wor

    There were many things that could not be understood in this world, regardless of the amount of logic that one’s mind could process at any given moment, there were things that befuddled even the most brilliant minds. One of such brilliant minds – no, two of these – was staring into the sky full of stars with a torn expression on his face. This man – nay, this god – was the trickster and master shapeshifter, Loki. But he wasn’t alone.“What are you thinking about?”“Many things.”“The great Loki has more than one troubling issue? This is interesting. Odin would have laughed at the absurdity of such a statement; but looking at your expression, it seems to be true.”“It is arrogance to assume that one can solve all one’s problems with one’s mind alone. Why do you think I sought you?”“Isn’t it greater arrogance to presume that two would be enough?”“But its not just two is it? One is the mind of Odin and the other is the mind that Odin sought.”“You say you aren’t arrogant, but you do not

    He moved quickly, his feet gliding across the floor soundlessly as he reached the Earth Realmer’s unguarded back. He opened his mouth and spat out a dagger, sending it flying towards the neck of his enemy. Before he was spotted by one of the Profound Realmers, his dagger had already pierced the Earth Realmer’s neck, and the latter was grasping at his neck furiously, almost like he could seal the hole and return his blood to his body by doing so.“Intru-“*Puchi*Dan swiftly waved his hands, changing the direction of his dagger and sending it flying into the neck of the Profound Realmer who had tried to sell him out. As he did so he was already sweeping his foot towards the abdomen of another enemy.*Boom*The stunned guard was sent flying into the wall and coughing up blood before he could fully understand what was going on. By this time, the last guard had finally caught up. He dashed towards Dan quickly, drawing his sword in the process. Without any hesitation he swung his blade at

    “There really is no one impressive here,” Dragon King Bast stated as his sword sliced through a Noble as easily as cutting through tofu.“I knew he said he will make sure this place is left almost unguarded, but this is incredible,” Captain Hafiz muttered as he watched the disciplined legion of warriors beelining into their path.While he spoke calmly, his rioting aura and the violence being radiated in his eyes showed his eagerness for war. He was not the only one expressing such deathly intent. Every member of the Sun Squad was ready to go wild, their eyes gleaming just as dangerously as their captain.“Why are you people talking so much. Let’s fight!” Monkey King Hanuman roared out and jumped towards the approaching legion.While the others were a bit taken aback that there were none of the Skies here to face them, Monkey King Hanuman didn’t care about that.
