GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

The sun god's face fell and the sky darkened because of it.

So they are crashing the party to start a fight, and they are publicly stating their interest in killing the celebrant to the father and host of the celebrant.

Stelios asked menacingly. "Are you sure? A none-lethal exhibition competition is always an option."

The angel nodded in the affirmative. "I'm very sure your divine greatness. It is the will of the sky god."

A none-lethal exhibition is an option but the sky god does not want that. He wants to kill your son and watch your face change due to the loss.

Stelios then smiled, "Let it be so."

Everyone was surprised apart from Staniel. They had thought that a disagreement was about to take place between the sky god and the sun god about the competition. The sun god has clearly been magnanimous about allowing the sky god to choose a competition. His only request is that his demigod should be allowed to use his Rune weapon.

That is a reasonable request. Everyone knows that the demigods of the sky god are the fastest demigods. They may not be able to transform into lightning yet as they are still mana entities but their bodies have been fashioned for speed. The demigods of the sun god have strong bodies but speed is not their forte.

The only way for the demigods of the sun god to kill demigods of the sky god is by using their bows which they are very skilled at.

But the sky god chose to be unreasonable, like always, and demand that they don't use rune weapons. The poor Helios will be at a disadvantage because of such an arrangement. Or so they thought. So it was jarring for them to see the sun god scowling one moment and smiling the next.

The sun god's behavior is fishy. But they clapped nonetheless. This arrangement will increase the odds of a demigod dying today. It will be a shame that it will be their host that losses but it will be a very entertaining shame.

"Let a third party bear witness and ensure adherence to the rules." The sun god proclaimed.

Another god stepped forward. "I will bear witness if there are no objections."

No one disagreed with allowing the god of conflict to bear witness. He doesn't belong to either of the factions of gods that the sun and sky god belongs to. He also won't favor one side but will make it more interesting by fanning the flames of conflict when possible.

The god of conflict then said, "Let the competitors come forward."

Helios was already eager so he began ascending the levels to get to the first level. The twins on the other hand are having a problem. Their original plan was to come here and humiliate the new demigod through a good old-fashioned, honest none-lethal exhibition competition. The mention of heroic feats by their father was to taunt the sun god and the recent loss of his children. Who would have thought that the sun god will get so angry as to take the bait?

They didn't plan for this and their father made a spur-of-the-moment decision to do it. The sky god had chuckled evilly in his divine kingdom while saying, "This is too good to pass off."

It is not every day that the sun god goes off his senses. So now they get to kill the sun god's young demigod. But which one of them will fight Helios? They are already older than him, and the two of them cannot fight him at the same time. Seeing as they have the advantage of age and competition arrangement, only one of them will get to fight Helios. The second one won't be able to fight Helios after he is killed.

"Brother, how about you let me go?" The female one asked.

Her brother wasn't listening, he had already started walking forward. He shouted grandly, "I Tyke the demigod of the great god of the sky and tempest shall fight and vanquish the demigod of the sun god in a spectacular display of heroic feat."

His declaration led to cheers from the crowd. He marched with confidence to the first level. He flexed his muscles and waved his purple hair about. He got there before Helios. Helios passed by his fuming sister who felt cheated.

He said to her in passing, "You lucky duck."

Tane sneered at him. "You will be dead soon."

It was until he had gone ahead that she thought about what he said to her. She hadn't been listening to what he said. She thought he was making fun of her or calling her names so she retaliated with what she said.contemporary romance

"What does he mean by I'm lucky?"

But now that the meaning of what he said settled in she couldn't help but be confused. If anything, she is unlucky in not getting to fulfill a heroic feat and have one for her heroic journey. She gave up on the thought very quickly when she couldn't figure out what he meant. Demigods of the sky god are just like their father, they aren't much thinkers.

It is an adaptation that speeds up decision-making in their minds so that they can make quick decisions when they are in the form of lightning and are moving really fast. They have been made to make quick on the fly decisions that rely more on their Instincts and reflex rather than careful planning or else they will be knocking into things because they can't turn when they ought to.

The god of conflicts took his job as the observer very seriously. He scanned the two fighters and made sure that none of them are carrying contraband of any kind. Then he swept his divine power over their bodies and locked down all of their runes. They won't be able to activate any runes that they have on them. The sanctity of a heroic feat has to be kept at a high standard so that it won't be disqualified.
