285 AC, Tyrosh, Temple of Trios…
As the memories ended, Gerold answered, "Gerold."
Suddenly, all three heads looked towards Gerold. The first head's eyes were ignited with a fiery fire. The second head's eyes were glowing with a golden light. On the other hand, the third head's eyes were looking at him but instead of eyes, they were more like a void that can devour Gerold's soul.
Gerold was expecting the second head to talk but, instead, all of the three heads sprayed a weird green gas and as soon as Gerold breathed it in, he began to feel dizzy. He held his head as it was beginning to ache. He should have expected this as the demons were tricky, evil bastards.
He looked around to see if there was anything that could pose him a threat but he did not see anything. However, unexpectedly, three heads awoke and the statue of the body that carried them moved. The statue stretched its arms and its six eyes focused on Gerold.
"Finally, I thought I was going to stay there for an eternity!!" Three-headed statue spoke throughout its three mouths.
Gerold couldn't believe his eyes and ears. He was expecting the statue to launch an attack to stop him from saying his wish but he didn't expect the statue to talk to him.
"Why are you looking at me like that, boy? Did you never see a God!!" It was weird to hear a statue speak but it was weirder to hear three different voices speaking at the same time and saying the same things.
Gerold put on an emotionless face and said, "Your tricks don't work on me, demon. Your kind shall face the wrath of the god or you will go back to where you came from."
Three-headed statue gaped with all of its mouths, from left to right, then the middle head closed its mouth and raised its eyebrows while yelling, "You fuckin' humans, all of you are same. Demons are this, demons are that. Why even are you calling me a demon, ha? Did I fuck your dad or killed him? Of course not, I am the most innocent being you will ever see. If not for that fuckin butcher tripping me in a statue I would have shown those pricky assholes what does being a God means. And look at you, do you really think just because you serve the first one that ascended you could convert everyone, ha? Though I was just a statue, even I, The Great and The Mighty and The Magnificent and The Incredible Trios couldn't make all of you humans worship me."
Now, it was Gerold's turn to gape while Trios continued to rant. He did not expect such a reaction from a godly being.
"Talk boy or I am going to make you talk! Do you think it was easy saying just riddles for nearly a fucking 12,000 years? Can you imagine, I couldn't even get a good fuck, for my sake!" Trios suddenly looked down and blinked twice, "Calm down little trios'. We're free now, it won't be long before we get laid. Hahahaha, the world shall witness our triple-penetration technique again!!"
Finally, Gerold collected himself and looked at Trios before opening his mouth to ask, "Aren't you going to ask about my wish?"
"Wish… What wish? Ahh… you're talkin' about those riddles. Well, I'm sorry, boy but they tricked you. There is no wish for the third riddle. It was just a ploy of my loyal priests. You see, I needed someone to free me so I entered their mind while they were dreaming and told them what to do. In the end, they spread the rumour of three riddles and the reward being anything you wish." Trios began to whistle with his first and third head while looking at Gerold with his second head.
There was a confused look on Gerold's face as he was still thinking about the wish but there was also a question on his mind, "Then why did you demand things from people who wished to solve the riddles?"
"Ohh, that… well, you see, I needed people who were totally loyal to me. With the first head, I demanded them to kill who opposed the temple. With the third head, I demanded babies who will be raised as my loyal priests. And… the third was for… well, we can say that it was for entertainment purposes… However, you don't need to worry about those things as you just solved all the riddles and freed The Great and The Mighty and The Magni…"
"Enough," Gerold cut him short, "You know why I came here. I will get what I wish one way or another."
Trios raised his hands and backed off, "Oi, oi, oi, there is no need to get nervous. I just got freed so I have no wish to return up to the clouds. I am sure we can work this out between us" Seeing Gerold saying nothing he continued to talk, "How about this, my loyal priest will realize that I am one with your god so they will see you as their prophet and they will worship yours? And you will let me go, of course, on the promise of me not making people worship me, what do you say?"
Gerold had to admit this was an enticing offer as he would be taking over fanatic believers. However, there was still a problem, "How will I know that you will hold to your promise?"
"Hmm… you are right, I can always back off from the deal." Trios smirked, "Okay, okay… Maybe I can hang off with you until you die, ha? After all, when you die the others will try to come back and you can't expect me to stay in that boring place."
Gerold knew this was the best outcome he could expect so he said, "Okay, however, even at the smallest wrong action you are out."
"Hahaha, okay then let's go and give the good news to my… okay, your loyal and super priests." Trios began to walk towards the door but Gerold, suddenly, held his arm.
"You don't really plan to go out like this, right?" Gerold pointed towards his three heads.
"What, I always wandered with my three head, people knew me like that. Wait a minute… do you want me to cut them?" Trios held his first and third head like he was holding the biggest diamond in the planetos.
Gerold sighed and said, "This is not the world of 12,000 years ago. Giants do not wander the lands like in the ancient times."
"Okay then I never tried this but we will see." Trios snorted and took a position like a sumo wrestler preparing to wrestle, "Hiiiiiiii, hiiiiiiiiiiiii" The first and third head of the Trios shrank as his body grew smaller.
Though he grew smaller, his body was still tall for a normal person as he was 2.3 meters.
"Damn you, humans, having only one head is too useless…" said Trios while Gerold massaged his temples.
