The atmosphere crackled with energy as the Thunder God glared at Akhil, his eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Who are you? Why are you here?" His voice boomed like thunder, reverberating through the vast expanse.
Akhil stood firm, the weight of his newfound power coursing through him. "I am the Time God, and I'm here to meet the God of Future."
A flash of skepticism crossed the Thunder God's face. "Are you really a Time God? If you truly possess that title, then why can't you travel through time? It seems you're more of a novelty than a deity."
Akhil clenched his fists, frustration bubbling within him. "I didn't come here to show off my abilities. I need to speak with the God of Future. So please, just move aside."
"Move aside?" The Thunder God laughed, a deep, rumbling sound. "No way. To meet him, you'll have to prove your worth. Defeat me first!"
Akhil's expression hardened, determination igniting within him. "Then let's start it. I won't hold back!"
With that, the two deities squared off, the tension in the air palpable. Thunder roared above as the Thunder God summoned crackling bolts of electricity, each one crackling with raw power. Akhil felt the energy around him pulse, his senses heightening as he prepared for battle.
The Thunder God charged forward, unleashing a torrent of lightning that lit up the sky. Akhil dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the searing blasts. He could feel the immense power behind each strike, but he refused to back down.
"I won't let you stop me!" Akhil shouted, channeling his own power as he prepared to counterattack.
With a swift movement, he gathered energy, creating a shimmering barrier around himself. The lightning collided with it, sending shockwaves through the ground, but Akhil held firm, drawing strength from his resolve.
The Thunder God smirked, impressed. "Not bad, Time God. But you'll need more than just a shield to defeat me!"
Akhil, fueled by determination, launched himself at the Thunder God, ready to show him the true extent of his power. The battle was just beginning.
Just as the Thunder God unleashed a powerful lightning strike, it crashed down onto Akhil with terrifying force. The energy surged through him, and in an instant, he was cut in two, his body collapsing to the ground. The Thunder God erupted into laughter, the sound echoing ominously through the air. "You see? You are not worthy of being a Time God!"
Bel's expression remained fierce, her voice steady as she replied, "You little god, the fight has only just begun."
The Thunder God scoffed, his confidence unwavering. "What are you talking about? He's dead! You thought he could stand against me?"
But just as those words left his lips, a radiant glow enveloped the remnants of Akhil's body. The light pulsed with energy, and slowly, his form began to reassemble. The very fabric of reality seemed to bend as Akhil's body pieced itself back together, a miracle before their eyes.
Akhil's voice rang out, filled with a newfound strength. "I am the Time God! I can travel my consciousness back to the past. You can't defeat me!"
The Thunder God's laughter faltered, replaced by a flicker of confusion and disbelief. "What sorcery is this?"
Akhil stood tall, the glow around him shimmering like starlight. "You underestimated me, Thunder God. Every time you strike me down, I'll just return stronger. Time bends to my will!"
With a powerful roar, Akhil unleashed a wave of energy that surged through the air, pushing back against the Thunder God. "Now, let's see if you can keep up!"
Akhil charged forward, this time attacking with the full force of his abilities. He twisted time around him, enhancing his speed and agility, making it seem as if he was everywhere at once.
"Wait!" the Thunder God shouted, trying to regain his composure. "You can't just manipulate time like that!"
But Akhil was already upon him, his strikes landing with precision and power. Each blow resonated with the essence of time itself, catching the Thunder God off guard as he struggled to counter.
"You thought you could dismiss me so easily?" Akhil declared, his eyes burning with determination. "I am the protector of this universe now, and I won't let you stand in my way!"
After a moment of hesitation, the Thunder God finally lowered his head in acceptance. "I acknowledge my defeat. You have proven yourself worthy, Time God. You may now proceed to meet the God of Future."
Akhil nodded, a sense of accomplishment washing over him. "Thank you, Thunder God. Your strength has only made me stronger." He turned to Bel, his loyal guide. "Let's go."
Bel smiled, her eyes brightening with admiration. "As you wish, Lord Akhil." They began their journey toward the God of Future, navigating through a swirling realm of light and energy. As they approached, a blinding luminescence engulfed them, illuminating their path.
A voice echoed from the radiance, deep and resonant. "I knew you would come, Akhil. Your arrival was foretold."
Akhil stepped forward, curiosity mingling with urgency. "You know my name. Your power is indeed remarkable. I need to understand how the Queen of the Samodiva Clan will escape from Hell."
The light shimmered, coalescing into a form that exuded both wisdom and authority. "The Samodiva Clan's queen is a true monster. She is the one who sealed me among the stars. You must be wary; her strength knows no bounds."
Akhil listened intently as the God of Future continued, "Here's a hint for you: You will see a man again when he comes to Paradise. The gate will be destroyed, and the protector of Heaven will fall. This is an event that will unfold without fail."
The weight of the prophecy hung in the air, and Akhil felt a shiver run down his spine. "I understand. Thank you for your guidance."
With that, the radiant light began to fade, leaving Akhil and Bel standing in the vast expanse of the universe. "Let's leave this place," he said, determination swelling within him. "I need to warn my friends and prepare for what's to come."
Bel nodded, her expression serious yet supportive. "Of course, my lord. We must act quickly."
As they set off toward the unknown, Akhil's mind raced with the implications of what he had just learned. The Samodiva Clan's queen was a dire threat, and he had to gather his allies to face the impending storm. The fate of the universe rested on their shoulders.
