[One way Out!]
[Wisdom Increased!]
“I have a message from Luciana Wiregia!”
These words created a huge shock on the faces of these higher Gods. Their eyes opened big enough to almost fall from their sockets, which kind of surprised me. I thought that they were already expecting me to know something about this, but looking at their expressions right now, it doesn’t seem like that.
Perhaps they were interested in all this clinic and stuff because it fascinated them? Or were they too bored to do something else?
“[Bind!]”
“[Stand Right there!]”
“[Abyss Gaze!]”
Those three spells were just the start of the spell bombardment as they used everything in their arsenal to stop me from moving even a single cell. Not worried about it, I just observed their spells landing on my body, restricting all my movements while I just sat there doing nothing.
In the beginning it was funny, cause I got to see a panicked side of them as they spared no effort in using their spells. But 10 minute later when they were still not over their spell use,
“Are you guys not done?” I spoke with a bored/exhausted expression as I yawned and observed them. In front of my wisdom, all these were pretty useless.
While [Charm!] is a great skill to avoid curse, and get charmed by others, even those whose existence is far above yours, [Wisdom] was something that would put your entire existence above the others.
It’s not about strength or power, but more about the position or status. Like a bulky man can’t do anything authorative to a young prince in a kingdom despite being many times stronger, most of the spells disintegrated right after being activated over my body.
It was true that they were each Higher Gods in their domain, all right. Helios was the God of Sun, his powers, skills and strength far above the others. He could kill me even with a thought if he wanted to, but that’s different from taking control over someone’s mind or soul.
Same goes for Hecate, whose main stats would be intelligence and mana. Sure his Wisdom would be on a different level, but even that won’t cross beyond 10,000. Especially given the restrictions they have in the mortal realm.
‘It’s possible if he uses his domain, but that would put the entire Light Continent and the surrounding at risk,’ I thought as I sighed on the relief on the inside. I was glad that their powers were limited in more than one way so even if they were ready to break some taboos, they won’t break all of them… Hopefully.
The only problem was Castellina. As long as her eyes were covered, I won’t have any problems. But if she were to remove those blindfolds… sigh… I should just hope she won’t take the risk of killing all the people around.
“Seems like I have no options but to do this,” and there she goes putting her hands on those blindfold, almost removing them.
“Only Innocents will die. And you don’t want another incident with the heavens, right?” I asked as I smiled at her.
“And you think I won’t take the risk? Knowing that I can get all the knowledge I can about beings like you and Luciana?” She glared at me, her hand still on the blindfold which was yet to be removed.
‘Damn she is scary. I wanna go home now.’
“You won’t. You are smart enough to know that if I didn’t want to be known, you would have never met me,” I bluffed again. Half my attention was on the [Restart] button, waiting to be pressed as soon as she removed those blindfolds, while the rest half was focused on Castellina.
“…”
She kept staring at me without removing her blindfolds. Despite her eyes being covered, I could feel her throwing daggers at me.
“You are right,” she sighed as she put her hand down, while I smiled as I continued,
“The world is in danger. A cataclysm is coming soon.”
“…”
“…”
“…”
A blank expression appeared on those Gods faces. Not just them, but even Harik and Iris, who were watching from a distance also had their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Cataclysm is no joke. The entire world may go extinct.
“How much time do we have left?” Hecaet spoke with a serious expression.
I raised my 2 fingers.
“2 Decade a short time,” Helios made a stern expression. He didn’t like this news at all. Though I just pressed my lips and smiled telling them it wasn’t 2 decades.
Castellina’s eyes widened as she asked,” 2 years?… That’s too little!”
I pressed my lips again, and smiled at her.
“T-Two… Months?” She saw my expression still the same and the gulped before speaking,
“Weeks?”
I nodded at her.
“You aren’t joking right?” Helios had an indescribable expression on his face.
“I wish I was,” I sighed as I looked at them. I wasn’t too worried given the powerforce we had, and the surety of the first Fate Weaver, but still I wanted to prepare my own little force in this fight. One that contained all the hands that I could count on.
That was the whole reason for telling them about this thing. Though from their expression, it didn’t seem like they liked the news at all. I could even see traces of despair on their faces.
“This… I still don’t believe it,” Helios spoke as he looked at me with a deep gaze. His eyes changed from despaired to being more rational. Continuing he spoke,
“There are no signs. Nothing that can prove your words.”
Though he was making a statement, he was actually asking me for proof. And I wondered what I should do in this situation. It’s not like I did not think about the scenario where they asked for proof. But more like I hoped that they wouldn’t be asking me this question.
‘Anyways, I guess it’s a dead end,’ I sighed as I was almost ready to click on [Restart!] but…
“It’s true,” my proof came in the form of a child. A young child with white hair, his eyes having a golden hue. That child had a strange atmosphere around him, one that screamed tranquility and serenity.
While I had an idea who that was, the answer came from the mouth of three Gods, as they immediately got on one of their knees and bowed respectfully,
“We Greet the All Father!”
