I was looking at Nyx and I get why he was saying that, he wasn't bleeding but wounded, heavily.
I was panicking.
"𝐻𝑒ℎ.Do you think this is enough to kill me? I've fought countless fights before, this is nothing.", he said with a proud expression on his face.
I sighed with relief.
"You will be all right, right?", I still had my doubts as I saw at the wounds.
"Puny human, who are you to worry about me?!", he said with an annoyed tone.
I laughed finding it amusing how he talked like a tsundere. First telling me he will be all right, the next second telling me not to worry about himself. Overall, I was totally confident that he was a good person.
He was clearly annoyed as I was looking at him. " My name is 𝑨𝒓𝒆𝒔, we didn't had an introduction because of the ruckus , did we."
To my surprise he was getting ready to introduce himself by putting up a noble's face,
"My name is 𝑵𝒚𝒙, also known as" 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑮𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝑫𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒏".
He looked at me as he was expecting a more surprised look on my face. But I already knew that part so I just smiled.
" You're not afraid? I just said "demon", don't you know what that means? ", he asked me as if it was obviously as he said.
I shrugged my shoulders and said," Yeah. I know and how can I be afraid of someone who saved my life. " I couldn't help but put on my warmest and honest smile.
He was a little taken aback by that (i knew cause of his surprised look).
"Ahem. Ok, whatever.", he responded.
"You are weird. Were you hit on your head sometime ?", he questioned me with a confused look.
I chuckled and said, "No, I didn't hit my head. I think I find you very cool when you saved me and when you were fighting them." I pauses for a moment.
"But why were they after you?", I was preparing myself for the answer.
....
There were seven silhouettes in the air talking among themselves. They were none other that the gods who attacked Nyx.
"He's dead, right?", said Boreas, God of Ice.
"Of course, how could someone withstand our might together? It would be impossible even for him!", said Konton, God of Chaos with a very proud and satisfied smile.
"Hmph, ganging up on one God still doesn't seems good. Even if we defeated him, this isnt right!", said one of the unknown female gods.
"Hmph, don't exaggerate this much, Tempest. Or are you actually agreeing with that mortal.", said Konton with a disgusted look on his face.
"It doesn't change that fact.", Tempest said with a dissappointed look at everyone.
"What is in the past, is in the past ! Now we shall not linger not the past. We are gods and I assume you all have to take care of your own realms?" said Goddess Lumine.
No one questioned or said anything and they started opening portals to their realms and passed through it.
Goddess Tempest was a close friend of Goddess Lumine.
"Are you all right?", asked Goddess Tempest.
"Why would I not be? You should also get going." she responded.
Tempest started going in her portal and thought to herself, "If that is true, then why, why do you have that look on your face."
Gods have their emotions controlled very well but if the loss is too much even the gods can't afford to hide their feelings.
Goddess Lumine's face was breaking down.
"We knew each other for more than 1000 years. You could have come to me for help. I could've helped you. Nyx."
