Chapter 57: Titanomachy 5
Mr. Olympus
After the retreat of the Titans, the Olympians and their allies all went back to the Mountain to recuperate and get ready for the next clash with the Titans.
"Why did you tell me to let then go, Lucifer? We could have finished this stupid war in just one day and you just let them walk away?" Yelled Amiel at Lucifer who just sat on a chair as if he was not the one being yelled at.
Not getting a response from Lucifer frustrated Amiel even more as she threw a vase at the wall "Answer me Brother, why did you tell me to come back?" She questioned him once again.
Lucifer sighed and stood up walked to the door before turning to look at Amiel "I did not tell you to stop your advance because there is a reason but because you need to stop interfering, you assisting them with the Daemons is already enough but you still went ahead to fight with them personally, that’s the problem so do yourself and I a favour and refrain from taking things personal in the next battle, I don’t want to come there and beat you up" he said before leaving the room.
Amiel angrily sat down and poured herself a glass of wine "what are we supposed to do here if we can’t even have a little fun, it is better to just stay in Hell than come here and have to listen to all these rules" she said before she went to her bed and just fall on top of it and closed her eyes as she thought of what to do now since she has been ban from her only source of entertainment.
Elsewhere
BAM
A loud sound of someone hitting a table could be heard throughout the entire campsites.
Chronos has been so angry since they arrived here and it seems there is nothing he could do about it.
His children bested him in today’s clash, he has lost one of his brothers and trusted commander to them and he did not get anything from them except the lost of his men..
Even Erebus he took to change the tide of the Battlefield was no where to be found, it was as if he disappeared into thin air..
He looked at the sky and roared madly at it because it reminds him of his father everytime he looks at it "even in your death, you are still trying so hard to make sure I don’t succeed, isn’t it?
Well you are winning because ever since you place that stupid curse on me, I keep failing at everything, and now I can’t even get one on my children and it seems they could see my evey move and prepare a countermeasure against me" he said as he smashed another table "but I won’t be brought down by the likes of them and I won’t be ferreted by you, because even if you are against me, remember I killed you once, I can do it again"
In the nearby tent, Oceanus was sipping a hot tea when he heard Chronos shouting like a mad man "he has finally lost it, well that’s what he gets for letting his emotions cloud his judgement" said Oceanus chugging the remaining drink into his mouth.
The Next Day
"Iapetus was battling with his two sons and they finally defeated him by tying him up with some chains and the next thing a flash of light engulfed the entire battlefield and when it subsided, he was nowhere to be seen, he disappeared from there" said Coeus who saw everything while looking for Erebus.
It was his idea to retreat so that they can be able to figure out what or where Iapetus is after he disappeared but they could not seen to feel him anywhere, all the connections they have to him is completely lost.
"I think it most have something to do with mother, she would not want to see her children come to harm, so she might be up to something, and that chain s her doing" finally Oceanus spoke which surprised the remaining Titans greatly as he has always remained silent all these while.
"Then I suggest we don’t go into battle yet until we figure out what mother wants or how to counter her chains" said Hyperion who was greatly injured from his encounter with Amiel and that was she going very easy on him.
"So we just send the lesser gods and higher gods to go out to battle without anyone of us there to provide support and assistance in case the children of Chronos decides to join the battle and slaughter them all?" Crius said.
Chronos agreed with what Crius said and could not just send his army to battle without any form of assistance, they can not be the cowards here "one of you should go, also take Atlas and Menoetius with you, we should be able to deal a blow to them with this lineup" said Chronos as he stood up and left the meeting room back to his room.
Everyone waited to see who was going to volunteer to go to the battlefield today but nobody did "seeing as no body wants to volunteer, I suggest we put out to a vote" said Coeus.
"Forget it, I will be going, there is no need for that, and maybe in the process broker peace with them" said Oceanus who stood up and left.
Coeus looked at him disgustingly as he left "broker peace my ass" he said before he also left.
The rest if the Titans also left to take care of other things especially Hyperion who needed a well deserved rest to heal from his injuries.
Mt. Olympus
Lucifer was sitting over a cliff as he thought of the ongoing war and wonder what he was going to do after that when he heard Amaterasu walking towards him.
She hugged him from behind and snuggled her head under his arm "what are you thinking of so intensely, love" she said with a hint of blush on her face as this is the first time she has ever called him that.
Lucifer smiled seeing like that and just placed a kiss on her lips "just thinking about the future, where do you think would be a good place to visit after the war?" He asked her.
Amaterasu thought for a while before she remembered a place where they could go for sightseeing and she heard that Realm was quite a place for Vacations "I think the Realm if Koguryŏ, I heard it has nice foods and beautiful places to die for" she said with worship in her tones.
[So Korean] thought Lucifer with a smile and eyes full of genuine interest.
