Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: The Board of Gods

*Everyone is shown decorating the city*

Shu.- You can already feel the festive atmosphere

Yes, I never thought I would see such a gigantic event again

Shu.- It's normal that this is celebrated so much, since the Board of Gods hasn't come to GODS for more than 50 years

Eden: 50 years?

Shu.- Yes

Eden: How old is the Board of Gods?

Shu: I think it was founded after the Great War, so it would be about a thousand years or so. I think you should learn a little more about this world

Eden: Yes, I don't know many things

Aphrodite.- It seems that the city is being very well decorated

Eden.- Yes, all the people are helping in the decoration

Aphrodite.- Yes, it seems that they want to give a good image to the Junta

Eden.- Why is the Board so important?

Aphrodite.- The Board is one of the most important bodies and giving a good image to them could result in greater investment in the city, visibility and those things

Edén.- understand

Aphrodite.- If you want you can go home, there are a few hours left for them to arrive, so you must be ready

Shu and Eden.- Yes

*Changed perspective to group 4 residence*

Eden: What exactly are we going to do when they arrive?

Shu.- Not really at all

Eden: Really?

Shu.- Yes, the only ones who will see the Board in person will be the 3 Gold ranks, we will only be in the city square to watch the meeting on a screen

Eden: So, I don't understand why so much formality

Shu: I don't know, but we'd better do what he says, I don't want to see Aphrodite angry again

Eden: Do you say that because of what happened the other day?

Shu.- Yes, I can still feel his blow on the arm

Violet.- Guys, it's time

Shu.- Yes, now let's go

Eden: You go, it still takes me a while

Shu: Don't delay, you'd better not make Aphrodite angry

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

*Perspective is changed and the city is shown illuminated by a bunch of colored lights*

Shu.- Even though I've seen it several times on screen, in person it's great

Violet.- Yes, we are privileged to be able to see this

Shu.- definitely

Zef.- Hey Shu

Shu.- Zef: What are you doing here?

Zef.- I was looking for Yohei, do you know where he is?

Shu: No, shouldn't I be with you and Lowa?

Zef.- Supposedly, but a few minutes ago he said he was going to look for something, but he hasn't come back yet

Lowa.- Still can't find the white-haired man?

Zef.- No, they haven't seen it either

Lowa.- Where's the talking boy?

Shu.- Eden? Still in residence

Lowa: I see, so now we have two people lost

Shu.- You could say that if

*The whole city is engulfed in a huge storm*

*Everyone here feels a great weight on their shoulders*

Shu: What is this overwhelming force?

Zef.- Zeus...

*A gigantic portal opens in the sky and chariots begin to enter*

Shu.- It's here... The Board of Gods

*Hermes and Zeus are shown inside Olympus*

*Hermes begins to spin nervously*

Zeus: Why are you so nervous?

Hermes.- Why did you choose me to be the announcer?

Zeus: You are the only one who can handle this situation, trust yourself

Hermes: Are you sure?

Zeus: More or less...

*Olympus Gate Opens*

Zeus: You have taken a long time

Odin: I'm sorry Great Zeus, I had a lot of business to solve

Odin, the supreme Norse god, is noted for his great knowledge of magic and the dark arts, as well as his wisdom.

Zeus: You have aged a great deal in a single year

Odin: Really? The women in my world say that every day I look younger

Zeus: Maybe they're blind

Amaterasu.- They're both old, they're not beautiful at all

-Amaterasu, Japanese sun goddess and queen of the skies, stands out for her great beauty and her great power of light energy, although she is very old, she does not like to be called madam-

Zeus: Amaterasu, as beautiful as ever

Amaterasu.- Thank you for your praise, old man

Odin: Is that the boy?

Amaterasu.- Yes, his name is Anubis, he is ready for his position

Anubis.- It's a pleasure to meet you all

-Anubis, Egyptian funerary god, despite not being the strongest god of the Egyptians, the King chose him to replace the place of the god Ra, he stands out for his great instinct and his sense of justice-

Huitzilopochtli.- Another year in which I have to see their faces

Huitzilopochtli, god of war, also known as the blue hummingbird, stands out for being a great warrior and above all for his serpent sword, much feared by his rivals

Perun.- Stop complaining about everything Hummingbird

Perun, the Slavic god of lightning and supreme god, is a great strategist and fighter, although he is very powerful, among the gods it is joked that he is the copy of Thor.

Huitzilopochtli: Stop calling me that, cheap copy of Thor

*Both point their guns at each other's heads*

Oggun.- I like the good atmosphere here

Oggun, Yoruba god of blacksmiths and warriors, despite his calm personality, in the face of his enemies becomes a very different and irrational warrior.

Vishnu: That of every year, inferior gods

Vishnu, the Hindu god guardian of men, despite his pride, when it comes to protecting his people, gives everything for them.

Shangdi- You're not stronger than them either, weirdo

Shangdi, the Chinese supreme god, despite his apparent human form, is said to be the way he communicates with living beings.

Vishnu: And a human tells me?

Pachamama.- I'm old enough for this. Can you shut up?

Pachamama, the Inca mother earth, although initially excluded from the pantheon of gods, became Bimora's representative on the Board of Gods thanks to her great wisdom

Mahuika.-Shut up once and for all

Mahuika, goddess of fire, you should not trust her appearance, she is very feared in the board, since she is not friends with anyone and if it is necessary to kill someone, she will do it.

Sucellus.- Looks like I'm the last one to join the party

Sucellus, Celtic god of agriculture, a great connoisseur of runes and magic, his great knowledge of traditional medicine gave him a place on the Board.

Zeus: They're all here, it's your turn Hermes

Hermes.- Yes. Please give me your attention

*Everyone keeps arguing without paying attention to Hermes*

Hermes: Hush!

Odin: So, the boy has guts, you've prepared him well, Zeus

Hermes: Please sit down each one on his throne, in a few minutes all this will be transmitted to all the worlds

*All the gods sit on thrones with their representative colors*

Hermes.- *Thinks* It looks like I'll have to take care of everything by myself

*Lowa and Zef enter through the front door*

Lowa.- We're sorry to be late, no matter how hard we searched we couldn't find Yohei

Hermes.- It doesn't matter, sit down, the meeting will begin

Lowa y Zef.- Si

*A giant screen is created in the city and in the rest of the cities*

Hermes.- I welcome both the members of the Board and all those spectators who are watching us. The Board of Gods is meeting to set up the draw for the new Tournament Of God

*The coats of arms of each of the institutes appear floating*

Hermes.- As you can see, here are the crests of each of the institutes participating in the tournament, this year like the others, those who have been finalists will participate in the subsequent rounds, while the rest of the institutes will face one of the remaining 9 institutes at random

*A fountain with several flames appears*

Hermes.- Each one of you must select one of the llamas and according to the number that comes out, they will occupy a place in the table, those who have the same number will be the ones who face each other

Odin: I begin

*Odin chooses a flame and draws 3 in the air*

*Each of the gods passes by and chooses their flame*

Zef.- So... it will be Nork

*Showdowns shown in the table*

The Gods-

-Zutarts VS Shamqui-

-Bimora VS Migats-

-Nekiams VS Graentis-

-Wetinns VS Panxiang-

Hermes.- Once the draw is over, explain the basic rules of the tournament. First, the matchup model will be chosen by those who came out on top last tournament, whether it's round-robin, 3v3, or whatever they choose. Second, those 10 students who are in the top 10 of the Gold Rank will be chosen for the Special Forces, and those 3 who are in the top 3 of the Gold Rank will be able to make a wish to the King, as long as it is within the limits. Finally, all those students who are eliminated in the tournament will be able to receive job offers from the army, special forces or any other association as long as they allow them to take their exams without any problem.

Shu.- The top 10....

Hermes: Having said all this, we can...

*The gods are shown perceiving something*

*Zeus moves at high speed and delivers a big blow to an invisible barrier*

By Zeus.- Damn it

Anubis.- What just happened?

Amaterasu.- Activate your Zenka energy

Anubis begins to release his energy and realizes the barrier

Zeus: It seems that they arrived earlier than expected. Hermes warns Aphrodite to prepare everyone

Odin: It looks like those guys are better than we expected

Hermes: Zeus, I can't communicate with anyone

By Zeus.- Damn it

Huitzilopochtli.- There is no other choice *Everything if the body begins to expel a large amount of energy

Zeus.- ¡Detente!

Huitzilopochtli: Why are you detaining me?

Zeus: If you hit this barrier, you will die

Huitzilopochtli.- What!

Zeus.- Those idiots thought it all out, this barrier is impregnable, if you hit it with all you might, it will be returned to you multiplied by 100

Huitzilopochtli: And what do you expect us to do? Let's just stay here?

Zeus.- At the moment it's the only thing we can do, but something like this was already planned

*Aphrodite and the rest of the city are shown*

Aphrodite.- We have to get down to work

Shu.- What's going on?

*The city is being by a dark dome*

Aphrodite: Those guys have started to move

Shu.- Who?

Afrodita.- Black Lights

*Eden is shown a few minutes earlier in the residence*

Eden. I hope Aphrodite doesn't bother.

*Eden knocks on Yuki's door*

Eden: Is he gone yet?

*Eden sees through an opening in the door and sees no one inside*

Eden: Seems to be the last one

*Eden starts walking towards the exit, but suddenly turns around*

Eden: *Thinks* What just happened? What did I feel? Maybe it's just my imagination

*Eden turns around and sees a knife near his neck*

Unknown 17.- You'd better not make any sudden movements

Eden: Who are you?

I can't answer that question, but you have to come with us, unless you want your friend's throat to be cut

Eden: Damn, where do you have Yuki?

Unknown 17.- Don't worry, you'll see her soon, you just have to come with us

Eden: You'd better not lie

*The stranger holds a knife to Eden's back and takes him away*

*The perspective of the Board of Gods is shown again*

Zeus.- Hey, hey, is this serious?

Hermes.- What's happening Zeus?

Zeus.- *Starts laughing wildly* I can't believe it, they've exceeded all my expectations

Odin: What do you mean by that?

Zeus: Those guys, they have millions of men at their service

Odin: Millions?! That's impossible

Amaterasu.- Not really

Odin: What do you mean?

Amaterasu.- Do you remember that conversation we had a few months ago when some of us got together

Odin: Yes

We had been warned that the influence of Black Lights throughout the world was growing in an incredible way, having under their influence hundreds of kingdoms and countries, for their message of salvation and new order, it is not surprising that so many people have fallen under their hand. But there's something I don't understand: How is it possible that they've gotten past security without us noticing?

Anubis: They have men who believe their words within this place, and I should not be surprised if they were within the other territories

Zeus: So, we have traitors within our ranks

Pachamama.- They should stop talking about these issues in front of students

Zeus: It's okay, I wouldn't be surprised if in a while they have to face them. But there is a much bigger problem, this is no longer just a small sect with revolutionary ideas, we are facing a real threat...

*Eden is shown reaching the top of a mountain where the entire city can be seen*

Unknown 17.- Boss, here's the guy who asked

*Eden is shown shocked as he looks at a familiar face*

Eden.- Kai...

Kai.- It seems that they haven't forgotten my name, Eden Yomi

Eden: Damn, what do you want from me?

Eden.- *Think* Wait a minute, what's that scar? A burn? When?

Kai.- I always thought that our second meeting would be something magnificent, however, it hasn't been like that

*Eden begins to expel energy through his body*

*Stranger 17 brings his knife to Eden*

Kai.- Don't worry, he doesn't want to hurt us, much less his friend, does he?

*Kai Shows Yuki Asleep*

Eden: Damn, what have you done to him?

Kai.- Don't worry, we just put her to sleep, we don't have any interest in her at the moment

Eden: What are you looking for? If it's me, you can take me, but leave my friends alone

Kai.- I'm sorry to tell you that the boss has other plans, right now you're not our target, our target is them

*A large explosion is generated at various points in the city*

Eden: What...?

*People are shown being hugged by the heat of the explosion and buildings are left in rubble*

Eden: What the hell do they think?

Kai: To create a new world, you must eliminate the old world and its beliefs, laws, thoughts, customs, we must eliminate that at the root. The world is a beautiful blank canvas that has been stained and corrupted by those who only look out for their own interests, those powerful who oppress the weak, the rich making the poor poorer, all this will be changed by our boss, who has shown us the way

Zeus: We are facing a great danger
