Chapter 193 - Meeting old friends Pt. 9

Having arrived at the God's meeting, Mew took his spot on Loki's lap as he and the other gods waited for Apollo and Hestia to take their seats.

The war game was a siege. A battle to take the others castle. Hestia had only a few in her familia, the few members who were previously from Mew's familia included. Opposite of Hestia's familia, who was small in number, was the Apollo Familia, one that was large in number.

Luckily, Hestia was allowed one helper from outside of Orario. Even if it was only one helper, every little bit was helpful.

Having been updated on everything so far, Mew patiently waited for the game to begin.

Hermes stepped forward, having gained permission of Ouranos to use his power, showing the scene of the war game to the gods and their children outside of the tower.

What was seen were the two fortresses, one bustling with people, the other being rather empty. From what Mew knew, the people present there would be as followed.

The members of the Hestia Familia gathered were Bell Cranel, Liliruca Arde, Crozzo Welf, Mikoto Yamato, Aldos Ljos Alf, Titania and Garm.

The members of the Apollo familia, well... he wasn't that interested in them to be honest. Not enough to bother to recall their individual names.

Then the battle began.

*

On the field, a single female elf had begun her attack, swinging with her magic blades to attack the fortress. With waves of her swords, streams of fire or wind would appear, destroying arrows shot at her of sending attacks at the archers shooting the arrows.

As if on cue, a group of fifty came out, ready to attack the elf.

At that point, the magic swords broke.

While the enemy forces gathered, a rather tall green haired male elf appeared as well. This elf being none other than Aldos.

He had donned his strongest equipment, one that would increase his battle capabilities enough to end large battles easy enough.

In his hand was a rather tall staff, one adorned with more than a few magic treasure stones were imbedded in it, boosting its power tremendously.

Their use having one thing amongst others: Cutting down magic activation time.

Smilling at the group in front of him, he raised his staff, mana gathering at an impossible pace.

"Go to sleep. [Forest Lullaby]"

A green magic circle expanded beneath the enemies feet, activating instantly.

One by one they dropped to the ground, all soundly asleep.

Putting his staff down, Aldos gazed into the giant cracks of the fortress' walls, wondering how the battle went inside the fortress.

*

While Aldos and the female elf, Ryuu Lion, were keeping the ones outside busy, the others had already infiltrated inside the fortress.

The one responsible only revealing themselves shortly.

One of Apollo's familia, presumably.

Now, Bell,Welf, Titania and Garm were inside. Mikoto had already gone inside, spreading the enemies forces even thinner than they already were.

The only one not present was Lili.

As they all spread out, Garm and Titania had found the places with the most people. They grinned at each other as they engaged in battle as well.

Titania snarled at her opponents, her clawed gauntlets were a steel blue, shimmering with a deadly sharpness. Only certain parts of her body were protected, but those parts were as lethal as her gauntlets.

The same set of claws were attached to the greaves she wore, slashing at her opponents in mauling motions, enough to leave her opponents out of commission if they were even slightly hit by them. They would be lucky if they were, as broken bones weren't uncommon, let alone gashes a few inch deep.

The fact that she had even equipped barbed ends on her tail to slash with didn't help either.

Garm however took the more traditional road of battle, swinging around a dull but heavy hitting great sword. One that was good enough to leave his opponents unconcious on the ground when hit.

The battles were short, but that was what they were aiming for. A battle where commanders would fight it out.

*

Looking at the screen, Mew hopped back and forth as he witnessed the exciting battles.

Aldos and Ryuu had finished theirs quickly, having met up with Bell to help in case anything might go wrong.

Titania and Garm were enjoying themselves a lot as they let themselves loose on the Apollo Familia. Lili had met up with Bell as well as he and the enemy commander, Hyakinthos.

They both fought hard, exchanging blow after blow while also using magic.

At some point it looked like Bell was done for, only to stage a big comeback and struck the enemy commander hard.

Hyakinthos' body slowly fell to the ground.

He didn't move, his consciousness having already left him.

The battle was over.

The Hestia Familia had won the war game.

Giggling, Mew looked at the two main characters of the show in the room.

"N-No way...!"

Apollo stuttered, as he glanced at screen in abject horror.

"A-P-O-L-L-O. You know what happens next...right?"

Hestia slowly said, a smirk on her face as she faced the horror-stricken figure of Apollo.

"I-I didn't mean it! Your child was just so cute, I couldn't help myself...!"

"Shut. Up."

Hestia glared at Apollo, a manic like grin on her face as her twin-tails swirled through the air by some unknown force.

"Remember your promise. You would give me anything I wanted. All your property is confiscated! Your familia is splitting up. You are banished for eternity! Never set foot in Orario ever again!"

With every word, Apollo's horror was magnified, up to the point he just crumbled on the ground in a sobbing mess.

[This is so much fun, I could watch this all day~]

Mew hummed as he looked with pity and a little bit of enjoyment at the sorry figure of Apollo.
