Chapter 5 - 5: The Decision

"Hmmmm, not that's sad. Didn't knew that we will be loosing a talent like you this soon.", said God Konton with a pitiful tone and face while looking at me.

"Huh?", I thought confused.

"You came in between us? So, death penalty it is.", said God Konton pitifully.

He then swiftly raised his hand and pointed his finger at me.

*whip*

Before I could make out what's he doing, God Nyx came in front of me and launched his hand forward.

*boom*

"He.... saved me."

God Nyx saved me from the attack of God Konton.

"Humph, I won't be owing to a human.", he said in an exclaiming voice.

"Th..... Thanks."

"Humph. Now stay behind me.", he said while signalling me with his hand to be behind him.

"Huh? Is this guy really bad? Did they got the wrong person? If I heard and saw correctly, he's protecting me."

I was confused but I knew for sure now that God Nyx isn't a bad guy.

"What are you doing? Nyx, why are you protecting him? Don't tell me that you want to take him in as your disciple?!", said God Konton mockingly.

"God Konton?! A god? That bastard is having the fun of his life! Just look at that freakin' smiling face!". I was furious at Konton.

"Human, why are you doing this? Why are you siding with him, when we even explained to you that he is a calamity?",said one of the goddess.

She looked like a very strong person with muscles but also keeping the charms of a woman.

"Why? Because when one of you just tried to kill me and HE SAVED ME ! And you're asking me WHY?! You all call yourselves gods when ganging up on a single god like him?"

"Hmph, how could a mere human like you can say such things about US?!" said Konton angrily.

Seemed like I angered him real good, well, I really liked that look on his face rather than that annoying face earlier.

*splat*

"Huh?"

"Why is my vision getting blurry?", I thought while crouching and holding the ground as to not fall.

I looked down and I saw blood.

There was blood coming out of my waist.

"How? When?"

Nyx was also surprised when seeing me bleeding.

" A human should always be in his limit.", said the remaining male god whose name I didn't knew of.

"Why, you?!", Nyx was furious.

"How could you let all this happen, Lumine?!", Nyx screamed.

Goddess Lumine flinched a little.

"What needs to be done shall be done. We will be pregessing to your extermination.", she said expressionless.

They all began charging up and ready to attack.

I looked at Nyx in extreme pain since this was my first experience like this, to be cut, Nyx stayed silent.

I calmed down a bit and sighed. I crawled to Nyx.

" You should get out of here, human. You won't be able to survive that. "

I replied, "Will you?"

He looked at me, "Heh, you're not bad, for a human, cheeky but not bad."

He looked completed, like he didn't have any regret to whatever he had done while he was looking at them. If you ask how was I able to when he is wearing a mask because his eyes could be seen. I saw that in his eyes.

"Human, I'll throw you far so you can at least make it out of this explosion."

I thought for a moment while glancing at my wound.

"No thanks, I'll die anyways due to to blood loss. So, I'll come with you."

He seemed to like my reply as he chucked.

I was quite happy to see that I made a god laugh.

And this might be my last chance of everything.

"Why do you wanna come with me?", he asked.

"Well, I have heard from somewhere that" If you're gonna die, die like a king".

He looked quite moved by that.

He left out a soft sigh and he took off his mask.

All the gods stopped charging as he tooked it off, surprised as he tooked off his mask but me,

I was in awe.

I was in total awe by THAT FACE!

"Is this real?! If they were angels, then he would be devilishly handsome!! His face was on par with Goddess Lumine, no even above that!" I thought.

"OK, ok, put it together!" I talked to myself.

"That is a very good saying of your realm.", he said while laughing.

"Yeah, it is." I said laughing.

*thump*

*thump*

*thump*

*drumroll*

His eyes lit up. He also started charging his energy. It was bright red, his aura or energy, and it looked like it was engulfing him but it moved around him so beautifully. *whoosh* *whoosh*

" That's awesome!", that was the only thought in my mind.

I climbed on his back while struggling with my wound.

"Ugh", I agonized.

"You okay, human?", he asked.

"Oh, you're asking me? Of course I'm not. I'm going to die. How can one be fine in this moment?", I joked.

"Haha, well let's make this a little hard for them,no?",he said while his energy surged to another level.

"Are you ready to die now?", said the Goddess Lumine but she had a sad expression on her face.

Nyx laughed.

They all also began charging up their energy and started to attack in synergy.

"Let's go then!", Nyx screamed.

"Human, what is your name?", he asked without any expression of sadness or anything.

" Its Ares!"

We jumped at their large beam that they prepared for us. We both were laughing. He punched it with all his energy on his hand.

"Oh"

Well, they do say when your life is about to end, you see a recap of all your mistakes and your life flash before your eyes. Well, they were right about that.

"Guess, I should've at least said goodbye to my family. If I could."

*kaboooooooom*

A white light exploded all around when Nyx hit it.

*wheeze*

*wheeze*

(wind blowing)
