Chapter 104: Ch. 104: The Secret Behind Titanomachy (II) (Poseidon's POV)

Ch. 104: The Secret Behind Titanomachy (II) (Poseidon's POV)"Have you ever thought about being the protagonist of your own story? About being the apex predator? Even with your power you still feel inferior." Spoke the bone chilling voice resonating through my bones with terror.

I gnashed my teeth and pulled back slightly as I held up my weapon, the trident that commanded the oceans. The entire space around me was a world of black, I could clearly see the pools of blood on the floor leaking from my brothers and sisters.

My words trembled as I spoke. "Apollo, Artemis, Hera..." They were all sprawled on the ground painted red. My hands faltered and fell by my side as my injuries intensified. Blood leaked from the multiple holes in my body, we had guven it our all but why were we still losing? I asked myself. "Dammit, I cant let them die!"

This was the final battle; between the gods and the titans. TITANOMACHY.

"Gods such as yourself may have an even purer form of power but compared to the Primordial source it's doesn't pack much of a punch does it?. This arcane energy of yours is a poor imitation of true power." I looked at the face of the towering being, his flowing white hair and white beady eyes, a face with no mercy.

Already ten years into the war and after such loss we have finally come close to winning. Zeus had chosen taken care of Cronos leaving us to deal with Atlas. Even with our combines power he's too strong.

"This world was merely just fictional to you gods, the true lord's of this world are us the titans born." Atlas reached out to me in that moment he pierced through my heart and I dropped down on the floor dead unable to save any of my family, I had failed them.

I gasped as I sprang back to my life on my bed, the blanket covering me roughly. "That nightmare again?" I heard the soothing voice of my first wife Amphitrite her long coral coloured hair and her huge brown hair, she was naked and had her hands on my chest. She had kept me company last night. "Poseidon it's getting worse."

I took up her hands and pressed it on my lips and kissed them. "I'm not."

She pouted her lips and said. "You've never been a good lier. You were calling out to your family in your dream, this time you said Hades."

My eyes could not hide my shock, I knew Amphitrite to beat very cunning woman and there was no way I could take this by her and escape. "I met him today, we drank and talked the three of us just like old times." Stay connected through mvl

She smiled lightly and said. "And that bothers you? I know you two are in bad footing but you were close once, I've always wanted to know what changed you two that is if you will tell me my lord."

Hades, damn you. You managed to drive into my dreams and become a nightmare. But maybe telling her will let it off my mind even for a bit. "We have our differences yes. Since the start we were rivals, friendly rivals. Even more so when he died." S~eaʀᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Amphitrite gasped in shock at my words, she must have been puzzled as to why I told her this but I had my reasons. "Hades, died." I could hear the clear spund of her gulping down.

I sighed and stared up at the glow lamp at the corner of the bed but she pulled my face back to face her. Her eyes urging me to continue.

"Have you ever wondered how Hades got his title as the god of the dead? Its because he died and came back stronger, he over came death. It was at the heat of the battle of Titanomachy, we were close to winning and we would have lost if not for him." I had a brief pause. "Zeus played a crucial role but Hades helped take down Atlas.

After the fight we drifted apart and he started developing a guilty conscience for not being able to save us all. Shouldering that responsible caused him to take a much darker path than I did."

"The underworld is not really the land of the dead but the location of the refugees of the battle, the races and those left for dead. Hades catered for them when everyone else turned a blind eye to them. The term dead was used in those days to mean lost ones."

I could see how fixated she was on the story at the reveal of the truth.

"To defeat Cronos Zeus cut him in pieces and cast him into Tartarus at the ends of the earth and Hades took responsibility for it's protection. The underworld is not a realm of the dead but also a prison to the fallen titans and the world beneath our world."

"So what happened next?" Amphitrite asked me in eagerness.

I sighed and broke down the rest to her in slow speech. "Even with the titans gone the world was still plagued by an entity born from the evil of our battle, that entity was something truly frightening. Luckily we percieved it before it could spread and sealed it in a container."

Amphitrite raised her head and played with my bared chest with her delicate fingers. "Why have I never heard this before?"

I smiled and said. "Its something that should not be spoken about."

"And this evil, where is it now?" She asked with eyes that were far from innocent. "If you don't want to say it then don't, quit glaring will ya?"

I had not realized I was staring but I relaxed and continued. "The words I have spoken to you today stays secret." She nodded clearly understanding what I could do if she defaulted from my words. "The entity was sealed in a black box constructed from one of the rarest materials and forged by Hephestus itself."

She pressed her lips on mine and giggled. "Now that you told me do you feel better."

My response was not one she expected. "Not in the least, now I'm even more unease."

She climbed up on top my body and pushed down the blanket, her face pulsed red as heat rose from it. Her huge breasts hanging down to my delight. "How about we go a round and make you feel better."

By the gods I have a hot queen. I remarked to myself as she did her thing.

My mind could not stop to stray to the black box, what did we call it again?

Ah that's right, I furrowed my eyebrows. Pandora!
