Chapter 110: Decision

Chapter 110: Decision

"Your excellencies, The Black Emperor is about to resurrect." Trunsoest said, his voice solemn, "If there is no problem, he will resurrect by the end of the year."

"It would most likely cause a convergence. The Uniqueness and Characteristics will return to him at the moment of his resurrection."

His majesty, Black Emperor. The one he betrayed. Trunsoest felt complex looking back at the past.

So much has changed. Deep inside, he still questioned himself whether the choice he had made was correct or wrong.

The doubts only deepened when he realised the very gods he worked under were disruptors of the order. They never wanted order or stability, nor did they care about the lives of the citizens.

Despite his blasphemous thoughts, Trunsoest knew, as his love said, there was no point in getting angry at gods. At that moment, a deep sense of powerlessness filled his heart, making him feel empty.

Suppressing his feelings, Trunsoest continued.

"Alitsa felt the spiritual imprint of black emperor in him awaken recently. Amon and Antigonus both tried to suppress it. However, they ultimately failed. After this, Amon concluded that the black emperor is about to resurrect."

Trunsoest didn't expect the revival of his majesty. The news came out of nowhere. He felt pretty complex over the entire situation, as he didn't know how to face his former lord, whom he had betrayed.

Just thinking about him made him feel troubled. His majesty's resurrection also exacerbated his scepticism on gods.

He knew the Black Emperor could revive through the mausoleums or if the order they established was still present.

However, Eternal Blazing Sun had already erased the twisted order of the Black Emperor. The only way his majesty could be resurrected now is through the mausoleums, which the gods should have destroyed knowing that.

Yet

"We know." A deep voice thundered. It struck his mind and heart like a sledgehammer, again and again.

Trunsoest looked up at the Eternal Blazing Sun, who was the one who spoke, confirming all of his doubts and speculations.

It would be an understatement to say he was angry at this moment. His heart was burning with rage.

'Why???' He really wanted to yell at them. He didn't understand. He didn't understand their intentions at all

His raging emotions nearly broke through his restraint, which would have most likely caused him to do something very stupid, stupid enough to anger the gods.

It took all of his willpower to suppress his raging emotions while taking a breather on the outside.

"Oh?" Eternal Blazing Sun raised his brows, his tone amused. "You seemed to be holding a lot back in your heart, Trunsoest. It will not do any good to you in the long run if you keep holding back and suppressing it. I am all ears, if you want to share it."

"No, I am fine, your excellency." Trunsoest said, his voice trembling. However, his thoughts completely told a different story. nove(l)bi(n.)com

Trunsoest's heart thumped heavily at that question.

The gods began discussing his fate right before him, though this time, they didn't allow him to listen in.

He didn't know whether to consider this kindness or cruelty on their part. But, his attention was already drawn to their figures, his heart nervous.

He observed; Eternal Blazing Sun seemed to suggest something, but Lord of Storms and God of knowledge immediately retorted back with angry and frowning expressions. However, Eternal Blazing Sun just responded with a sneer, much to the anger of Lord of Storms. The God of Sky rose from his throne in anger, cracking it. Eternal Blazing Sun also didn't hold back anymore.

Light and thunder filled his vision for a moment, before being swept away by the aura of life. Earth Mother stood in between them, calming the sun god down. Lord of Storms also retracted his power, after Evernight Goddess gave him a look. They returned to their thrones.

The Goddesses are really powerful...

Then, the Gods continued their discussion. The God of Steam and Machinery finally participated as well.

After about five minutes, the gods finally stopped their quarrelling. They seemed to have decided on his fate.

Trunsoest clenched his fist, blood pouring out of his clasped fingers. His eyes and expression were still calm, despite his surging heart.

"Trunsoest." Eternal Blazing Sun spoke, his voice majestic and solemn. Trunsoest looked at the sun god, waiting for the judgement of fate.

"Do you want to become a god?" The Sun God asked.

It would be an understatement to say that Trunsoest was stunned. But, he immediately collected himself and answered the sun god.

"Yes." He immediately replied, his eyes clear and firm like never before.

Trunsoest knew that his answer was hasty. He didn't even think twice about it. However, deep down, he knew this was what he wanted. This was what he desired the most.

"That decided it" Eternal Blazing Sun smiled, looking at the other gods. He finally stood up from his seat, with other gods as well.

"Come to my kingdom when you are finally ready, Trunsoest."

His words lingered in the air, as the projection of Eternal Blazing Sun collapsed into light particles. The other gods also left after sparing him a scrutinising glance, ending the meeting of gods.

Trunsoest was left all alone in a daze. His mind was still thundering with the last words of Eternal Blazing Sun..
