Back then when I heard the story? Damn. I felt chills down my spine, enough to make me wonder if all the hard work that I am doing is going to end up turning to dust someday? But then as time passed, I calmed my nerves and told myself that what is going to happen in the future, we will face it in the future.
But still...
'69% sure both Luciana and that guy are fate weavers or higher,' I understood back then, but Vladmir mentioning that to me confirmed it. In fact, knowing about Luciana from the story, I think I can more or less figure out a way to keep her under the tabs in case I meet her.
The real problem was that other guy.
'Well. Let's hope we can tackle that with time too,' I sighed as I recalled what happened to the other gods after that.
Accordingly, Queina and the other gods didn't get all their powers back. They more or less lost 90% of their powers, and were quite in shambles back then.
It was at that time that Queina separated herself into fragments, while each fragment collected power from all the dimensions. In the short run, she would lose her power even more, maybe getting weaker than even an average mortal.
But as time will pass, she would be able to raise those fragments each to the power level of gods and higher, before combining all fragments and rising to a new height.
This was the reason Quiena was in her fragment form right now.
As for the other gods, they too had their own ways of raising their powers back to newer heights. While they were scared shitless from what just happened, this new height of power was something that opened up their eyes to a new level.
Just finding out the new height of power was enough to instill new ambition in their eyes. Something that they had lost ages ago. Something that their inner desire was creeping to find.
And thus this apocalypse-sort of began another era. An era where each god desired to reach heights far greater than they had ever achieved. All in hope of confronting the two fate weavers in the future.
But that's something that can be discussed over the time when we will meet gods.
"One was when the Titans appeared millennia ago and the All Father God of that time used it to kill the King of Titans."
She put down one of the three fingers.
"Second was presumably later during the War of Demons and Gods, once again used by the All Father of that time, who used all his life force to summon that weapon and use it against the Demons, wiping half of them in a single moment."
And then she folded another finger, leaving only one.
"And finally, the current King of Gods supposedly used it in a war that occurred in the Demonic Realm. Don't know the details, but from what I heard, another monster appeared there and 2 Hell's Guardian and King of Gods worked together to stop a monster from destroying the Demon Realm."
Finally, keeping her hand down, she then continued.
"However, I never saw any of that happening with my own eyes, you see? So I can't really give you concrete information on that."
I turned silent at that. Not because of the lack of concrete information on that weapon, but because of the information that I had received about that weapon right now.
It was certainly hard to take all that in at once.
'Well, let's focus on what we can do for now.'
I took a deep breath as I slapped my cheeks and then shook my head before looking at Queina and spoke," it's all right. What about that angel, though? Any idea?"
Not to my surprise, Queina shook her head, saying she doesn't have any idea. But a voice came from the other Goddess, making us turn our heads to her.
"About that..." Alepsia spoke out as she looked at me sheepishly and continued,"... I think I can help you out with that."
And both Queina and I turned to her, giving her all our attention.
