Chapter 15: REASON :)
Well, well, little bow tie, with what you talk behind my back eh. it seems I've been too soft on you. I think it's about time I taught you a lesson or two."
"Wait Kaltor, let me ex..."
Before he could finish speaking, Kaltor lunged at Calyps, burying his head in the ground causing a 20 meter crater. he then disappeared to reappear behind both Baltra and Mia, performing the same move, knocking out the trio of gods.
"Anyone else, anyone else? Well, while what you said is true, I left out the reason I was training them harder than before, so I'll tell them.
"Really, just like that?" they all thought.
"Yes, but first get this trio of idiots out of the crater and wake them up."
Once they were out of the crater, Calyps Baltra and Mia still took about 10 minutes to wake up. It had long been clear to the others that even though they were gods now, that didn't mean they were invincible, let alone immortal. Sure, the passage of time didn't affect them and they wouldn't die of old age, but that didn't mean they couldn't die of some mortal wound. According to Kaltor there have been a variety of gods who were too arrogant and ended up dying. Whether it was by the Nephilim, clashes with other gods, there were even some that the reason for their death was mortals.
"Argh, what, what happened?"
The first to wake up was Calyps, considering she was the first to be knocked out. After a minute Baltra and Mia woke up.
"Alright girls you wanted to know why I was killing you from training didn't you? The reason is that I want you to be strong, stronger than someone like you."
"I don't get it" exclaimed a boy with a boyish look on his face.
"Remember the "anomaly" I felt a few centuries ago? Well that anomaly was a new god. Just like you."
"What? But that shouldn't be so. You said yourself when we first met that only one 'batch' of gods is born every several millennia, so he should have been reincarnated with us," exclaimed Calyps.
"You are right, hence it is an anomaly, when I went looking for him in the orion universe, we clashed, which ended in the expulsion of this new God. i don't know where he might be. The only thing I know from what the high council has told me, is that he already has his universe created."
"What, that's impossible!!!! Not even one Estremes has passed yet!!! (new measure of time)"
"And there you have it, I don't want you to be left behind in this universe competition, now let's get back to training!".
"but Mr. Kaltor it hasn't even been 1 thalasecond yet!"
it's true, so I'm going to give you a gift. If you manage to get a single drop of blood out of me, I'll give you 10 Thalasseconds of rest, how about that, not a bad deal."
"You're the fucking God of Ruin, how do you want us to hurt you?".
The vast majority protest, as in the last 25 Lunistros (new measure of time) since they became gods they have been "training" with Kaltor, and have never been able to even leave a scratch on him, in fact, they have not even been able to make him sweat a single drop of sweat. His personality sucks, as he always goes with what he tells them is 10%. Even though they are 40 inexperienced novice gods on their own, they are a force to be feared even for swarms of Nephilims.
"Oh please Kaltor, we can't beat you!!!"
"then you just have to learn how, nothing is impossible with the gods. As I see that you are very energetic, I will reduce the rest time to 7 Thalase seconds."
"Argh Please."
"You are a Cursed One."
"Let us rest."
"Why do we have such a patron god?"
************
"Well ehhh, I guess I went a little overboard with the storm."
In front of me there was only a portion of Earth about 500 km in front of me, I was doing rain and storm and a huge mountain for about 4 years maybe, it's hard to measure time when you don't have clocks or anything like that. Now, the Earth is already fine the problem is simply that you have to control the water, with something to hold it back.
"Well it looks like I'm going to have to create a new species."
During all this time I thought about creating "servants" that would be in charge of governing areas of the planet, something like elementals. And I really tried to do that, but it seems that just using Mana isn't enough to create beings of such magnitude. i'm going to have to use a dash of D.E. this can go very well, or very badly.
"Come on, what's the worst that can happen?"
So I set to work, first I will make beings that dominate the four primary elements: water, earth, fire, air. Their appearance is the least of it as long as they do their job well, we are doing well. Today by making a fusion with a dash of D.E. and plenty of Mana it was relatively easy to create these first species.
"My Lord" Responded the 4 Beings before me, they look like ghosts, somewhat transparent and with absence of legs, I wonder if I will be able to see their species....
