Chapter 275

Lucas had followed him when he had decided to leave and it was at that moment that he had presented himself to them.

When a God disappeared, the Creator would psychically send him a list of candidates to replace him and it was up to him to make the final choice, and this time he hadn’t hesitated for a second to choose Mykael.

It had taken him months of patience to convince him to become the God of Destruction, and he had to take them both to worlds that were on the verge of destroying themselves, and thus to destroy the other worlds around them, before Mykael finally accepted his offer.

It was the first time that a human had resisted him so much, usually they were all rather eager to become a God but not him, and it was also for that reason that he had persisted because he was sure that Mykael was the perfect man to become in some way the Guardian of worlds.

He was the most upright, loyal and dedicated man he had ever known, and since he had become the God of Destruction he hadn’t only reset the worlds and saved the cycle of reincarnation in those worlds, but he had also made sure to safeguard the knowledge that legendary creatures could pass down from generation to generation and that would have been lost after a reset.

He had never regretted his choice, not even when he had tried to oppose him for Kevin’s world, because he was the one who had taught him not to let himself be influenced by other Gods because the consequences if this world exploded despite their interventions would be too disastrous.

And his only conditions for accepting to become the new God of Destruction had been that he wanted to be free to choose his own men and that he wanted him to personally train him and his men in order to be sure to be able to carry out this mission.

He had accepted thinking that it would be nice to keep a good relationship for once with a God and also because he had observed Mykael for a very long time and he knew that he had a gift for surrounding himself with people with unusual talents.

And as he had expected, after Lucas who was the only man he knew who could spot the energy signatures of any living being, all the people he had introduced to him had unique talents without exception.

Training them had always been a pleasure and that was why he and Mykael had always been on very good terms and why his men knew his very well.

The fact that Kevin shared the mark of the Union with Mykael’s son was perhaps not just a coincidence, but the Creator’s will to consolidate their alliance, everything was possible with him.

And while he was still immersed in his thoughts Miguel appeared in front of him and he said leaning nonchalantly on the wall next to him: “Still troubled by your visions, you look tired ?”

Elias shook his head and told him honestly: “I was thinking about Mykael, I just realized how powerful he had become and believe me I’m glad we can count on him and his men.”

Miguel raised an eyebrow and he answered his silent question on his own: “If I look tired it’s because I had to use my golden flames to be able to pass through his aura and destroy a seal that prevented him from fully using his powers.”

Miguel smirked and said to him : “I see, it’s because his aura tried to kill you that you finally realized that he had never used his full strength during our trainings.”

Elias just nodded and Miguel asked him again: “What about your visions ?”

He just told him: “I’m afraid that the war with the Titans is inevitable, and if it’s inevitable then let’s use the time we have left to prepare as best we can and make sure that when they will break the peace, this war will be the shortest one in history.”

Miguel chuckled and said to him: “You’re right, the harder will be their defeat, the longer it will take them to recover, hopefully this time they will learn their lessons.”

Elias smirked and as he was about to step out of the shadows to continue his briefing with his men, Miguel stopped him and he pushed him against the wallholding him in place : “Are you sure you’re not hiding anything from me ?”

And as Elias continued to stare at him stubbornly without saying anything he clarified his question : “Fuck, just tell me that Kevin’s birth didn’t change the balance in our universe and that he wasn’t born to replace you.”

Elias smiled and he grabbed his waist to press his body against his : “I already told you Miguel, I don’t know, my visions are limited and I can’t predict if I’m going to die or not.

I don’t know if the fact that a second Warrior Spirit of Stage 3 appeared means that I might die or if he appeared just to help us protect the peace, but either way Kevin is innocent and he didn’t ask for this.

So whatever happens, never forget that it’s not Kevin’s fault and protect him like you protected me, at least until the conflict is over, he will probably need you.”

Miguel shook his head and told him : “You already taught Kevin everything he needed to know and trust me he doesn’t need me. This kid is even smarter than you so don’t worry he will be fine.”

He then added while caressing his face: “I won’t live another second in this universe if you’re gone, so I don’t know what deal you made with the Creator because you never wanted to tell me but I hope at the time you really thought it through.”

Elias then put his hand behind his neck and kissed him passionately, he tightened his embrace and he said to him while still playing with his lips : “Believe me Miguel, I already promised you back then that we will never be separated again, those two hundred years without you seemed longer than all those millennia spent with you, so of course I got guarantees. No matter what happens we won’t be separated this time.”

And while Elias wanted to enjoy this moment with Miguel a little more, he felt that two of his men had just gone to Stage 2 so he swore and he said to Miguel : “You should take care of calming them down because I’m not sure I will be able to hold my punches.”

He winked at him and disappeared to reappear in front of his men.
