CHAPTER 19
The Arrival Of Hades
Thanks to Green, the host of Arakah was successfully rescued from the tempest grip of Hades. I walked out of a chamber where he was laid, recovering from his slumber. Perhaps, The force of Arakah wasn't yet present to him.
All that we had been through perhaps is about to end with two alternatives. After unfortunately not defeating Hades, the script of the prophecy has come to an end. All that is left is a final battle. Either I conquer Hades or Hades conquers all creation.
Thought being raised in my head as I awaited Khloe to come out from the inner chambers where the ritual happened. Sitting on a heavily designed couch in the Palace Of King Butt, having my hand by the sides of my head trying to massage my thoughts.
The door knob squeaked gold as it turned over. The colossal ornamented palace door opened up to Khloe's presence. Two guards by the side of th
Chapter 20THE RUMORS OF A NEW PROPHECYDarkness revolved round Hades as he descended slowly. The blackxpurple flares of the lower layers of his gown swept the street as he descended."Maria!" "Look out!" I yelled.So turned over in a wry manner, her eyes half open and her face sparkling with sweat. She turned back to me and smirked before Hades vanished and reappeared closer to her."Goddess!" "What are you waiting for?" "They are holding you back!" "Take them out and I shall give you all." Fake promises being uttered. She folded her fist right and plunged the spark of light on my chest. Raising her palm at paramount ease, she lifted us all to the sky, and held us still."We shall conquer realms together with your power and rule as the last gods!" Suddenly the ground cracked from a distance and I saw a hound running towards Hades. Cerberus it was.
Chapter 21The Grand Reveal"Khloe!" Yelled Steven by the sight of Khloe. He rushed towards her with his arms spread wide apart reading to engulf her with his hands."How!..How!" He stammered as he ran short of words.Khloe turned over, with her eyes fully focused on me! "He brought me back!" Her eyes rolled down as she turned over, looking back at Steven.A smile made its way on his face as he walked towards me.All he said was "What a true hero will do!" Before he caught me into his arms."John!" A feminine voice called from behind.Looking behind my left shoulder, I saw Green. The exact person we needed to see.Light fadesScene Changes To The Room Where The New Host Of Arakah Laid."Arakah once told me that..." "You will come of great a
CHAPTER 22Challenging The Abyss"So this is the plan, we are going to split Eregdrix into seven groups, which you guys will disperse to a secreted location in each of the continent." I spoke through the microphone provided for me on the podium. "Each of the team will have at least one leader." "Would you do the honours to find the three finest in magical arts?" I referred to Butt, placing the microphone away from my mouth. "Silva will handle that!" We need to point out the location fit enough.Silva hastily took over the microphone," "Elizabeth!" She first called. "Lilly!" She called next as I exited the podium. The third name wasn't clear to me but this was a situation of haste, no time had to be wasted.Sound of tension kicks as we all walked across hallways before we got to a room. Butt instantly closed the door and went on to using magic to find location. He placed his two palms together for some seconds before speedily dragging them apart. A map of the globe formed in the air
CHAPTER 23BAD OMEN"John what is happening?" Khloe's brows furrowed and her forehead creased as she stood opposite to me in confusion. If there was anything that could help me now, it will perhaps be the blessings of Arakah.I closed my eyes and it occurred to me that there was only one thing that could have happened."Gefion!" If she was a goddess of Magic, just like Morgana, perhaps her limitations to destroying us is far from what she had just done.Raphael's visions weren't accurate. He showed me that Gefion would rise after all of this! How exactly can I feel her presence already? I said to myself."John what is happening?" Her voice could tell the confusion rising."Gefion!" "She...she...!" I got dumbfounded instantly.Lights fades like the dusts on the street in a breeze day.The darkness fe

A prophecy more catastrophic, one which man has never seen before.First Person Narrative : John"John!" The voice called. "John!" It called again and suddenly I felt myself swimming in the memories of my mind.The words of Raphael started reflecting to my ears, line by line."More is coming as consequences shall be paid!""Lives shall be lost!"As I heard the second line, I suddenly remembered what happened earlier. How those people were struck."The cherished shall perish!"This got to my ears as I tried to wake up but it was like I was stuck in what ever this was. I struggled to wake up because Maria was struck, and Khloe, I had no idea
CHAPTER 26HOW MUCH BETRAYAL HURTS"I learnt to trust you!""We accepted you..and you..you repay me this way, you repay us this way!" The feeling of betrayal of trust broke me from inside."By working for her?""Gefion reassured with a word that I didn't coming." "And you betrayed your friends by taking my hand. They will all die, when the prophecy goes into place, and as the witch..." Gefion giggled as she turned over."She will be the only downfall humanity will experience, as thus, the first and the last." Said Gefion with her half opened eyes."Do you think that you have her in your grip, that you can manipulate her to think what ever you want?""Well that's where power goes over understanding." "She is the daughter of Morgana, she will break free of the bond, and she...she will end everything." A sad fa

Chapter 28Dreams : Of Unknown Discovery IITwo dreams gone and three to go...the next starts of with blinking lights, like the rest. Continuously spinning, the effect was relatable to a crapulence.The eerie, forlorn atmosphere made it look like a marked territory that inhabited people. Details were hard to catch as it was in a forest, no seen building, no life, just insect noises.Suddenly, the atmosphere got more humid as it seemed, making Khloe more uncomfortable. Her arms were all goosed up. Staring around in confusion, little whispers made their ways through her ear and suddenly it felt like rushing rivers. It wasn't long enough before actual words were being heard."Thus, not written in the prophecy, holds more damage to the world, the trinity shall collapse from the inside as one shall destroy all!"The voice was like a pang against her head. She held
