Chereads / My Ultimate Revenge System / Chapter 7 - Farewell

Chapter 7 - Farewell

"What?!" Adam exclaimed in shock.

"That's right, I'm the one who gave you life."

The god shackled against the wall was indeed Osiris, the God of fertility, resurrection and agriculture.

During Adam's first life in this world, Athena had implored Anubis to spare Adam's soul from the spirit realm.

To grant such a request, a god must be willing to face the consequences that comes with such actions. In this case, a punishment had to be made.

Osiris who was one of the few gods that was uninterested in Ares game made an indifferent shrug when Athena requested a favor from him.

A favor of which would involve him staying in the spirit realm to receive 'the treatment' for a duration of years which coincidentally tallies with the five hundred years ceasefire period.

Osiris had initially been tasked with the transplanting of Adam's soul from his original worn-out body into the foetus of a woman's womb providing him the chance of rebirth. But still memories of his first life may still be hidden deep within his subconscious mind.

Athena knew Adam's memories which can't be accessed consciously may protect him from the emotional pain of recalling past events but eventually those suppressed memories may result in debilitating psychological problems.

And so to prevent that Athena came up with an idea. Rather than hide such memories why not detach them, that's where Muninn comes into play.

Munnin was one of the two ravens who flew around the world collecting vital information enabling them to act as messengers to the God Odin.

Although Athena could have easily asked the Titaness Mnemosyne who was also well-versed in memory wiping but Athena would rather bribe a bird with snacks than to persuade one of Zeus consorts .

A bargain was struck between Muninn and Athena allowing Adam's memories to be wiped off. Osiris stayed behind to receive 'the treatment'.

The treatment actually involves the offender standing on a penal treadmill and being struck with a million lashes each day by a device analogous to a cat of nine tails whipping contraption.

But rather than a nine knotted line fastened to a handle instead they were replaced by a photon whip like material flexible enough to inflict pain and suffering upon the inmates.

Adam now understood that Athena had cured him of the poison flowing within his system so as to prevent the stress of going all the way to the spirit realm to retrieve his soul which would have been disastrous because not only would Anubis be aware of the mortal's importance but the other gods would be alerted as well because this time she would have to stay behind in SHEOL to receive 'the treatment' for the next five hundred years and seeing as how she wouldn't want to expose her champion anymore than she already had, she decided to save him as fast as she could.

"Okay, I understand now. So what happened to my body?" Adam inquired as he shifted his gaze towards Lust.

"Do not fret, I'm in control of your body now," Lust replied to calm Adam's nerve.

"Oh I see. You know the truth is I do not trust you and for me to do that I would have to demand you let me take control of my body, you would have to refer to me as master and I would have to ask you to bend the knee," Adam declared with a hint of mockery.

"What?!" Lust inquired, at first he was marveled by the words uttered by the demigod before him. A higher spirit such as himself would have to submit to a puny being such as him? He knew there was no point heating up in rage and so he genuflected. Adam seeing this had a wide grin on his face.

"I'm yours to command Master," Lust declared allowing Adam to split his consciousness to take control of his own body.

"Good, good, good! Splendid!" Adam declared as he tittered towards a collection of weapons and torture equipment stacked on the wall which were frequently used by the guardians and phantoms. Adam grasped a spear from one of the weapons available and headed towards Osiris.

"I really appreciate all you've done for me Osiris and with a heavy heart I have to bid you farewell,"

With the fact that both demigods and Gods were the only beings across the five realms capable of killing other celestial beings, Ares stuttered a little while trying to escape.

"W...what? No stop! W.....what's the meaning of this?" The clanking sound of chains could be heard as Osiris tries to move away from the being who had a maniacal look on his face.

"You see, I have to make sure no one knows of my existence hence the sudden change of heart. Do not fret, I'll make it as swift as possible," Adam declared as he hurled the spear towards the chest of the being behind him impaling him to the wall.

"Huh? What?!" Lust who had a bewildered expressive look on his face exclaimed at such turn of event.

"What's the meaning of this?" He inquired as he shifted his gaze towards the human that caused such a conundrum.

Lust had been impaled by the spear and he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Adam on the other hand couldn't help but laugh loudly as he declared.

"Haha....Sorry, sorry, sorry. You know what? You've made two mistakes already since I arrived here. Firstly, the memories you sent to me didn't conceal the feelings you had in each of them.

You wanted me dead at first to possess my body, had you done that instead of heeding Athena's advise, you could have achieved your long awaited dream.

True, I was weak during my first stint in this world.Hence why you wanted me to refer to you as Reverse right?, you were simply trying to shove my weakness down my ass right? Well that was your mistake there my friend because I'm not the same person you once knew.

Aside from that, you are what I would call zealous and ambitious. You waited for centuries just so you could find a suitable vessel to plug your insatiable taste for coitus into.

I have to admit I'm kinda interested in achieving that dream of yours. The pleasure of being surrounded by exquisite beauties is something I would surely love to try, maybe that's why we are compatible.

But having a voice resounding over my head just doesn't sit well with me. Of course I would have reconsidered if you had decided to battle it out with me , I know I won't be able to defeat you but at least I would be convinced you were worth having as a partner.

Seeing as how you were willing to bend the knee, I couldn't help but feel dubious at such an act and then it occurred to me, what better way to fool a fool than to cuckold him, which is what you plan to do right?".

"Tsk, if you knew of this fact, why didn't you propose a slave contract?" Lust inquired seeing as how Adam had already discern his ploy.

"Yeah that could have been a probable proposition but like I said before I do not fancy the idea of having 'a system-sama' ringing in my head. Moreover I've got important things I gotta do. I've got a list of people I must kill at all cost so I can't let you use me as your vessel."

"Huh?"

Lust exclaimed with a bewildered look on his face as Adam declared.

"Yeah, it seems to me that you were also played by Athena and as for Athena and the other Goddesses..hehe" Adam tittered as his mouth salivated a little. "I guess we'll have to find out won't we?"

"Your second mistake was not killing me the moment I angered you and so this is where we bid each other farewell, goodbye Lust."
