Hearing this ligerts and meferes made a serious face.
Ligerts asked zenith "What are you saying zenith I don't understand" he tried to pretend that he don't know anything.
"You don't know? Hmm then I guess ill take the divine energy which is hidden in a separate space by 'someone' to power a 'cage'"said zenith.
Zenith pulled out a massive amount of divine energy, which was gold in color and had a cage made of compressed divine energy attached to it using a golden chain made of divine energy as well, out of a crack in space.
The cage was a big 10*8ft sphere, which was attached to an orb of divine energy, the size of 0.6meter.
Even though it looked small the amount of divine energy present in the sphere can bring more than millions dead back to life and destroy not just world but galaxy in the blink of an eye.
"NOO THAT-"meferes panicked and almost shouted for the orb since most of the divine energy belongs to him but he stopped and started thinking.
"What was that?" zenith asked.
"So that's where you used it..... I can't be-leave you were planning something so sinister.
Do you not remember the days we spent under the care of zenith.
How zenith told us to protect it not to try and destroy it?
Is this how you repay her for making us gods?" bemes who was sad from the betrayal.
"HAA~ you are so naive bemes you really thought that the zenith 'THE ZENITH' really made us gods? If so how can we not interact with other beings in world.
Why do we have to keep hidden and live in different spaces created for us.
Truth be told, we are not gods, we are just puppets made to take care of zenith while zenith gathered all the power it needed to make more of puppets like us.
That's why our powers are still attached to zenith.
Zenith had the power to see all things we do and it can take all the power in one fell sweep from us, isn't that right?" Meferes looked at zenith and asked.
"I never let this power be yours because if a day like this came I can be safe from you I always knew greed was inside you three but the difference was bemes had the greed to be useful to me he treated me like a parent and you two wanted more power you were never satisfied with the power I gave you an-" zenith was speaking but suddenly meferes shouted.
"POWER WE CAN'T USE FREELY.
You keep a tight leash to our powers, creating unnecessary rules, not letting us interact in the world all we could talk to were our apostles and they were the only ones allowed to be close enough to us so that we can give them powers.
We can get whatever we want in this space and we can go in the world to roam it, but not being able to interact with people is as frustrating as it could get.
Seeing new things develop in the world and not being able to enjoy is just killing us its so hard to control.
We can't even create things which were created in the world because we don't know its taste the flavor or anything else...
We may have become gods but we are nothing but your prisoners here"meferes finished speaking.
"Those are just excuses you are a god and you receive offerings from people. Don't tell me you forget how you can take things which are offered to you as for desires.
You can make any living being in this space to serve you.
I know you can even bring dead back to life in here so what you are saying is meaningless.
What are you trying to do?" zenith asked and looked at ligerts who was not moving from his place.
"You know light can do many things specially it can stop others from looking at you while you can do whatever you want, its called invisibility" suddenly ligerts vanished from his place and appeared near the orb of divine energy he activated the lock while meferes was distracting zenith.
Zenith was trapped in the cage made of divine energy.
The cage sucked zenith inside it, In less then a millisecond almost like teleportation zenith was locked in cage.
"NOO WHAT HAVE YOU DONE" bemes shouted and attacked Ligerts but meferes grabbed his neck from behind and kicked his knee breaking his knee "AAHHHHH"shouted bemes.
"Ugh are you trying to destroy my ears, stop shouting.
The connection between you and zenith is no more, so you are basically an immortal human nothing else, your injuries will heal quickly but you won't be able to use any of your abilities" saying this meferes kicked at the other leg of bemes breaking it.
"AHHHHH stop this madness there is still time don't do this" bemes tried to persuade them not to betray zenith.
"You seems to misunderstand something, we were going to betray you two for a very very long time.
You see being stuck in one place, not being able to move out of this space made us quite envious of other living humans and creatures.
Specially when we started to talk with that Bitch of an evil goddess NURWA.
She told us about there being worlds with far advanced technology and beings made of metal and oil.
She even told us that there are no restrictions on real gods.
Its just here that we are limited to use our power when absolute necessary or in this space which we call home.
In my opinion it would be better to say that this is a well decorated prison, which was made to keep the prisoners entertained and happy.
But I'm not happy, not a least bit" said ligerts.
"AHHHHH"Meferes broke the left hand of bemes with a smile of joy.
"Would you stop that, harming him won't do any more good."said ligerts who was annoyed by the disturbance caused by bemes shouting from pain,
"I'm just trying to take revenge for the times he trapped me in those creations of his I cant forget the nightmares those things caused me" meferes remembered the times when bemes's trap made his senses stop working.
At that time he found out that closing all your senses can make 1minute feel like being trapped for 100s of years in one place.... truly a horrible trap for an enemy.
"I guess you were hit pretty hard by that trap... anyways I have to talk with that bitch and find out what she is planning, she seriously dared to attack my world"ligerts made a deal with the goddess of evil nurwa.
He will give her the consciousness of zenith and in return he gets to rule the world, for real this time.
He made this deal with nurwa 40years ago, although it might seem a lot of time but for gods it was similar to months passing by.
"Its not 'your' world its 'OUR' world, don't think that I will be easy to remove like these two.
If you try to plot something against me I won't go down without making you pay first"meferes was well aware of ligerts schemes. He knew that lingerts can't be trusted, the same goes for lingerts he also knew that meferes can stab him if he let his guard down.
Two shrewd and greedy gods trying to work together after their common enemy is defeated, what are the chances of that happening?
"h-ho-how cough c-could you two keep the power even though you locked zenith.
It should be impossible to keep that power after what you have done" bemes interrupted them and asked the question after he gained some strength to talk.
"That's very simple we cut the connection which binds us to zenith.
It was impossible to find the right connection of energy which binds us to zenith and we cant just remove all our energy connections we have created throughout the years just to find the right energy which binds us to zenith.
So we cut off all the connection zenith had and we were also promised the world if we give zenith to nurwa.
Of course she was the one who suggested the was to get rid of zenith's influence, but I don't trust her so I connected this world back to zenith and I'm also not planning to give zenith to that bitch since she send an undead lord or whatever that thing is to attack us.
As for you my pathetic brother I was more than happy to bind you to meferes" said Ligerts.
Although both ligerts and meferes don't realize it but the whole thing which they were seeing was fake.
They were trapped in a creation of bemes who was seeing all what was happening with zenith.
Both meferes and ligerts explained all their plans and even gave the name of evil goddess nurwa.
Creating this kind of illusion was very hard with bemes creation magic alone and required a lot of divine energy as a sacrifice but zenith helped him to see how far meferes and ligerts can go and decide their fate afterwards.
