Chereads / Tale of a Phoenix / Chapter 11 - The Goddess of Water

Chapter 11 - The Goddess of Water

He was currently facing His Great Deitiness. Awaiting Prithvi's orders. But he only heard, "Summon her." 

And Vayu wanted to spew the mouthful of Air, at the spot. Because if he isn't wrong then, this 'her' is none other than 

Celaena, or 2347. The Goddess of Water. 

And Lady Westfall's closest and true friend. Well, at least from Aelin's side. But, his superior and he knew the real nature of this sweetest angel. 

Well, Celaena is no less than Earth's serpent in his eyes. After all, she doesn't leave any chance not to infuriate Aelin, to not ignite the anger in Aelin, to not to embarrass her, and to let Aelin make a clown of herself in front of others and all. 

It's not like Lady Westfall is that cruel, as the rumours say. In fact, he knows she is more of a naive, innocent, cute girl, who got infuriated by 2347 easily. 

After all, she only knows how to fight physical battles, not psychological battles. So, she gets led under the nose by This Celaena. And this fool phoenix always believes Celaena, increasing the headaches for him and his master.

~~

As for the reason behind Celean's behaviour. It's because of the simplest funda of the Universe. She likes The Great Deitiness. [ After all, be it heaven, be it Earth or be it Hell. Who doesn't like the strong and the powerful creatures of their species!!!]

And since, Prithvi's weakness was Aelin. So, she used this weakness of his as her strength, to do all types of shady deals and things.

She used Aelin to harm others, to humiliate others, to punish others, to make others hate Aelin in return, to maintain her beautiful little lotus image in front of others. She even tried to use Aelin to get a little closer to Prithivi. 

But to her bad luck, despite everything, she was nothing more than Aelin's slave in front of him. And the reason why despite knowing and ignoring everything, he just couldn't harm Celaena; because she was the one and only source of living for Aelin.

Aelin's best friend. He even tried to expose Celaena in front of Aelin, but she has always been blinded by Celaena's goodness and always got fooled by Celaena's few words called 'Explanation'. 

~~

To put it accurately, it won't be an exaggeration to say, the reason for Aelin and Prithvi's sour, at the edge of breaking, relationship is all no-thanks to Celaena. 

And now, when Lady Westfall was actually in this state, then his Lord wanted to summon her, again. And for the first time, he doubted his master's IQ level. Ah!!! Isn't that what you humans, call it. 

So, what if we Heaveners don't possess brains like humans and earthlings. We still possess the knowledge of the millennials and the powers of the Universe. So, obviously we are more intelligent than those humans. Humph.

~~

"Yes, His Great Deitiness." Vayu replied politely. Fine, he can only give an opinion in his own mind. Not in reality. 

"But Master. Please think thrice." And Agni [The God of fire], the only God capable of butting in the discussion between Great Dietiness and the other party ended up chiming in, once again. 

Not because he has the status, not because he was powerful. But because he has that loose mouth, which says whatsoever comes to his mind. After all, all the 30 people present in the Grand Hall of Throne, know the fact very... very well.

That, the moment Celaena and Aelin get together, they suffer. The entire Heaven and Heaveners suffer the most. Although all the 30 Deities were standing straight, strong, gracefully, and powerfully. But it still didn't hide the nervousness, the sweat on their foreheads, the shivering of their bodies. 

After all, Aelin. Just this name was more than enough to send the chills of terror, through their spines. And not to say that crazy Lice Celaena. They were bound to be doomed. 

What's more, their master didn't even care about them at all. She broke them, mends them, bends them, hurts them, punishes them. But their master just watches from his High and Mighty Throne. As if their lives and deaths have nothing to do with him. 

They can even afford to be the gatekeeper of hell. Then to be present in The Grand Hall of Throne, in Aelin's presence. As for them, she is scarier than Hell- residents. At least, the Hell -Residents, follows some principles of humanity. Not all, but some. 

But she doesn't. Not even a single one. 

~~ 

But The Great Deitiness turns a blind eye to Agni's [His LEFT HAND] plea. And then busied himself with work. After all, if Earth contains 207 countries, to deal with. Then one can imagine, how many planets, how many species, how many creatures, how many galaxies,

How many solar systems, how many stars, how many satellites, how many black holes… and how many things this person has to handle… personally. 

With the assistance of these 30 deities. But still, he never puts them or his work above Aelin, in his heart. Not even a little bit. 

~~

Both Agni and Vayu stare at each other, then sighed deeply.  They then went to the dungeon, where they had thrown Celaena. After all, they couldn't bear the sight of her. So, when they saw that dismissal glance.

They dragged her and threw her into the dungeon. And now they know, they will regret it the most. After all, that hotheaded, stupid Phoenix will 110% avenge her enemy in a friend's disguise. 

~~

And as expected, Celaena carried that vicious, terrifying look, which represented their doom. After all, they are no match to That Phoenix. And even if they are, Prithvi won't allow them to harm her. 

So, their winning chances against that scary phoenix is 0.000000000. Celaena was carrying that femme-fatale's smile on her face. As she knows this fact, much better than them. 

She might be a weakling. But the most powerful and strongest Creature of This Universe was her shield. So, how couldn't she act reckless and all mighty, in front of others? 

~~

"His Great Deitiness summoned you." Agni spat the words, then left. 

And Celaena was all smiles. After all, Prithvi summoned her, for anything. [ Well, she knows why. But she doesn't want to acknowledge the fact. After all, The  Entire Heaven knows, Only Aelin is his exception.]
