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
Zandor's troubles went beyond what was happening within the planet; for the battle outside its borders stretched beyond the confines of the stars that gave it light.*Boom**Bang*The sounds of battle were mighty, yet they dissipated before they could reach the surface of the planet. Space itself swallowed the chaos whole before it could stretch any further, and a good thing that was too, for the kind of power that was being enamted was strong enough to destroy a single city in one breath!*Bang*A loud explosion rang through the vast expanse as a figure was sent flying from within the chaotic mess that had formed in the middle of the explosion.*Cough*The figure that had been forced out of the clash coughed out copious amounts of blood as his ears and nose joined in leaking out the precious fluid of his body which carried all his nutrients. The person in this sorry state was a man wearing a military uniform with the totem of a red snake printed boldly on its pocket. This man's energy
Indra's expression was firm. The lightning that coiled around him grew thicker, and though this was the infinite space, clouds began to form all around him!"Domain: Thunderous Judgement"Indra muttered softly as his power grew stronger. This was Indra's strongest state! This was Indra being serious! This was the lightning god's true power! His true power was no joke, and it showed how seriously he took Medusa. The warriors behind Snake Eyes had their eyes wide open upon sensing the unbridled aura of the young god of lightning. "He wasn't being serious before!" they realised, and were forced to out up their defenses in order to avoid getting hurt by the young god's aura!"Yummy," Medusa liked her lips lustfully as she too brought her power to the maximum. Although she didn't seem to regard Indra seriously, this was just her personality. She wasn't playing around, and this was symbolised by the fact that she had activated her own domain."Domain: House of Snakes"*Roar*A several hund
Indra moved immediately he spoke. *Boom*Thunder followed the flash of lightning headed towards Medusa, and before one could complete a cycle of respiration, Indra was already before Medusa. His eyes glowed with the power of the element from which his legend had began, and his mind churned as he located the string of movements necessary to deal the most damage."Hmph," Medusa's smile was no longer present. The killing intent she felt from Indra was much thicker than it was before, making it difficult to ignore like she had been doing all this while. Her eyes glowed again as she activated her most powerful Breath."Breath: Eyes of Petrification"The approaching Indra was forcefully stopped in his tracks one more time, failing to get to Medusa once again. Even the lightning that rioted around him found no place to vent their wrath, crushing into space and not flesh.Medusa smirked as she prepared to dive forward; her eyes dimmed after her attack, but her expression was so bright that o
As Indra's threatening force approached Medusa, she growled unhappily and commanded several snakes to stand in her way while making a hasty retreat. Several humongous snakes quickly intercepted Indra's charge, placing their mistress's life before theirs. Unfortunately for these snakes, their sizes mattered little to Indra."I have killed snakes who have even attained Godhood, much less mere mindless beasts," Indra snorted coldly as the power of his Breath, Spear of Lightning, grew even stronger.The snakes Medusa had summoned were all Ascenders, but they were mindless beasts. Usually an animal with such power should have sentience and be capable of even changing form, but Medusa's snakes had long lost their will. Although they had great power, they didn't have the minds to harness it. Hence, their combat strength had reduced by at least half. To bring such beasts before Indra was asking them to sacrifice their lives for a few seconds of reprieve; and that was exactly what happened.*B
In a remote corner of the True Universe, a desolate planet revolved slowly around a dying star. The planet was located in the 1st Heaven - more accurately - at the end of one of the branches of Yggdrasil - the World Tree which connected the worlds of the 1st Heaven.*Crunch*A hooded man walked slowly across the deserted surface of the planet. The planet hadn't seen the light of day in a long time because it's lone star was dying out, producing dying embers that could illuminate it slightly and not do any more than that. However, that was sufficient for the man who walked his way through the planet. His steps were so light that it took the keenest of ears to hear his footsteps, and his clothes remained untouched by the swirling dust of the ancient planet. A thin armor of Edict surrounded the hooded man, preventing anything - from dust to the battering winds of this cold planet - from getting to him. The majestic aura that he consciously let out announced his presence as a god!"It lo
Reinlief led Atlas to a room that was hidden from the noise of the underground cave. This room was something like a relief center, albeit a fairly simple one. It had a bed at one corner, and a table with two chairs at its center. There were no windows, but the place was as cold as a frozen lake; however, neither Reinlief nor Atlas seemed bothered by the extreme temperature. This was Reinlief's room.The two sat facing each other, with several jugs of mead before them. They drunk like camels, and didn't seem to have a limit to their alcohol capacity, for they just kept on going."Why didn't you let us know that you were coming?" Reinlief chugged a full jug of mead before ruthlessly slamming the empty container onto the table, an action that ellicited a small tremor in the earth. However, the table which received the brunt of Reinlief's force was unharmed; neither was the jug."Well, it isn't exactly easy to reach you these days," Atlas chuckled as he gulped down mead from the huge mug
"Unbelievable," Reinlief muttered for the nth time as he slumped to the ground, spilling mead all over the floor."You have said that a thousand times already," Atlas grumbled while staring at the spilling mead with an expression of pain on his face.Nidavellir was isolated from most of the True Universe, meaning that something like mead was almost impossible to get here. The dwarves here were master craftsmen, but they had no idea how to make mead. That was left to Asgard. The capital of the 1st Heaven frequently brought over barrels of the priceless commodity to Nidavellir, but the dwarves were drunkards and the barrels that could easily sate the thirst of an entire city for a few years could only contain the gluttony of the dwarves for a few months. So, mead was a very precious commodity here. The dwarves seldom shared their mead, and it was only special guests like Atlas who had the privilege of drinking Nidavellir's mead. Not to mention, the war of Asgard had closed Asgard off f
