Chapter 1840: The Sun Dims
Apollo and Horus rise higher and higher in the sky. This is dictated by Apollo who tries to bring Horus further away from Olympus.
The weird thing is that Horus follows.
Right now, these two gods of light, is clashing at the peak of the Heaven, the peak of sky, the clouds scatter and the stars burns bright and explode around these two gods.
The earth, the mortal world filled with mortal beings is now cast in shadows and light as these two gods pushes their powers to the limit
Apollo began channelling the power of the Sun.
And not only the Sun in the Olympian home world, every Sun in the realm of the Olympian galaxy is now providing energy to Apollo.
The Sun dims in an acerated rate and some of these Sun dies
Even Helios who is now in recuperation held out his hands and send his energy to Apollo
HUMM!
HUMM!
There is humming around Apollo like the sound of a black hole. A radiant sphere appears around him.
"Hyargh!"
Horus kicks Apollo with his feet. Swirling gust follows his kick and yet when his feet kicks the radiant sphere force field, a rebound power was reflected back on him
And Horus was pushed backwardn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Horus was not surprised as he gathers his strength.
A massive falcon shaped shadows could be seen behind him that block the light of Apollo
Charging toward each other, these two burning sun clashes!
BOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOMM!
The sound of explosion echoes all over the world.
It releases a massive shockwave of light that splits the clouds and the sky and for a moment the heavens are illuminated as though the world is now experiencing a solar eclipse.
It leaves the sky empty.
Horus on one side, Apollo on the other.
And in this clash, the winner of the battle was decided.
Horus has some wounds on his body, but he is standing there in the air with a spear on his hands and steadily looking at Apollo.
Apollo on the other hand is still on the air. But he is holding his chest and he is not looking good.
Not good at all.
Golden blood is dripping from many parts of his body. There is wounds on his chest, deep gashes on his face and golden blood dripping down from his nose, his eye and his ears.
The wounds is full of fire. But this is no normal fire.
It burns and prevent the wound from closing up.
This fire if it falls to mortal world would directly melted that entire world.
And Apollo is gasping for breath, each breathe he takes is releasing countless of divine energy. He could not stop his body from leaking energy
"You lost"
Apollo look at Horus, then he looks at the sky around him and look at Olympus and the mortal worlds
There is devastation everywhere.
He did not expect any of this. Right now, the sky is empty of clouds. All of them were burned by their fight.
And the sky itself has been ripped apart showing a scenery of a different dimension. It would take some time before the fabric of reality heal itself
This is even worse than the attack nine thousand years ago.
This magnitude of damage could not be compared than the last time.
Ra is not playing around this time. He is coming for their necks.
But the goddess with a bold heart turns every way destroying the race of wild beasts: and
when she is satisfied and has cheered her heart, this huntress who delights in arrows slackens her supple bow and goes to the great house of her dear brother Phoebus Apollo, to the rich land of Delphi there to order the lovely dance of the Muses and Graces.
There she hangs up her curved bow and her arrows, and heads and leads the dances, gracefully arrayed, while all they utter their heavenly voice, singing how neat-ankled Leto bare children supreme among the immortals both in thought and in deed.
The one that had just saved Apollo from Horus spear is none other than Artemis, the daughter
of Zeus and Leto, the sister of Apollo
From the way Horus sings the Song, the Hymn to Artemis, it is clear that there is an
undisguised admiration in his tone
Artemis is now wearing an armor crafted from celestial silver.
Polished to a mirror sheen that reflects the moon's glow, accentuating her slender, athletic
frame.
The edges of her breastplate and vambraces shimmer faintly, as though touched by stardust.
Across her shoulders lies a cloak of midnight blue, its fabric appearing as though woven from
the night sky itself, speckled with stars that flicker as she moves.
On her back there is a bow.
He had seen her before but never had the opportunity to fight her.
He had heard of her prowess and her beauty but it is only now that Horus could see Artemis
And he admit that the rumours was not lying.
The Goddess of the Hunt, the twin of Apollo had arrived and she is as beautiful and as
fearsome as the rumours makes her out to be!
And her arrival change Apollo fate.
Apollo did not see it but Horus see it and feel it.
At that time, his spear is only inches away from Apollo chest.
And it was at that time, there is an arrow of light that intercepted the edge of that spear,
striking with such a force that it forced Horus to retreat and for him to feel the vibration on
his arms.
The air around that area itself wavers.
Snatching Apollo from the jaws of Osiris.
And in that moment Artemis domains reign supreme, as the sky was split between his golden
light and Artemis silver gleam
However, Horus is not afraid at all even if he had to face these two twins at the same time.
Maybe because he had just won now, he has this confidence.
And to normal beings confidence is just like a placebo drug meant to instil mortals into
believing in themselves even when there is no basis.
But in divine beings like Horus, confidence itself is connected to fate and destiny, cause and
effect and confidence that is backed by result create an invincible aura.
He is looking at Apollo and Artemis and his aura is rising by the second
He is now radiating with the glory of the Sun
His eyes is as sharp as a falcon. And he smiles
"Artemis, I have heard your name in the Seven Belt Road before. Today, if you want to protect
Apollo it would be a hard task. Today...he would die"
"Today....The Sun of Olympus would dim"
