BATTLE AGAINST GODS AND MONSTERS

chapter 2: The awakening of the evil god

Lex Acron slept in the depths of the abyss, in a sea of stars huger than the sun and more beautiful than the moon.

The same nightmare plagued him for fifteen years. Blood, so much blood, her blonde hair soaked with blood. Her pure apparel stained with dirt. Her eyes bleeding.

Their pure sky clear blue white in death.

It was on repeat he never woke up. It just started all over again, but after fifteen years he finally jerked awake trembling and sweat.

Demigods and goddesses surrounded him. They prostrated before him.

"Welcome back, your divine evilness." Drakkar was there, ready and waiting, already dressed in battle gear.

A thousand flying beasts with bat wings and feet surrounding her.

"Report Drakkar." He ordered, rising from the coffin of ghosts. The wails of a thousand ghosts could be head screaming in the tomb.

Nyx, the nightmare captor, knelt before him. "I hope you had a pleasant rest, my lord."

"Yes, the dreams and nightmares were quite overwhelming. I should have you thrown in the chamber of needles to teach you a lesson."

Lex growled and the incompetent nightmare captor she fell flat on her face.

"Forgive me, my Lord. I tried my best to confine your nightmares, but they were too strong. They made my working hours miserable, my lord."

she panicked as Lex bathed in the moon.

He basked in the beauty of the stars and inhaled deeply. The grave yard of the gods was always eerie silent, but today the tombs shook. Even the dead were paying their respects.

He floated in thin air on a cloud of dark smoke. The demigods and goddesses followed, their heads bowed as they arrived at the castle which hadn't been opened in fifteen years.

On two different sides stood the mages all on their knees on the other side stood the monsters also on their knees.

No one dares look him in the eye. The only ones who weren't present were the humans, and soon they would bow as well.

For fifteen years, the gods have been powerless since the slumber of their master.

Now his arrival brought a new moon, a red moon. Half of the white moon turned to blood.

The lights illuminated the sky and a dead corpse of flesh peeled off, revealing his white illuminated skin and glowing blonde hair. His eyes were red as blood and teeth as long as a vampire.

His cloak of dark clothing.

Turned a stunning white the dark spiral still crawling up the robe.

A crown of stars sat on his hair. He was magnificently beautiful. A beauty none could comprehend.

The stars fell on the gods, mages and monsters and they revived, rejuvenated and filled with power once again.

The massive doors of the palace of stars swung open. It rolled the bridge of souls over the bottomless the space.

He moved over the bridge and others followed on the narrow bridge. The castle had no walls, only seats like an arena. And the floor was carpeted a deep colour of red like lex's eyes.

Finally, he ascended on his throne of skulls and the council of gods took their seats as well.

"It is time to bring the humans into submission. I have had enough of their filthy freedom in my universe."

Drakkar knelt before the great throne of skulls, muscles and bones. "Give me the order, my lord."

"Summon the five demons of disaster."

Immediately he spoke, the carpet opened up, the earthquake, the flood, the tornado, the volcano, and the hurricane arose from its depths in a cloud of smoke.

"Go forth and wreak havoc on the earth. Kill and slaughter. Not a soul should be spared. Be merciless, let their tears serve as an offering to my beloved deceased."

They bowed "As wish your great evilness."

They vanished.

His eyes moved lazily through the room "Where is Earthleen?" he questioned with a thunderous roar on noticing the absence of the Queen of the Earth sect.

"She is not present, my lord."

"Is she dead?" he asked passively.

"No, my Lord. There have been rumours of her siding with the humans for the last fifteen years.

My spies have been picking up traces of her helping them and tending to their incurable disease with her healing powers." Drakkar snarled in disgust, and there was an uproar of disapproval in the court.

Lightning struck in the space of stars, the wrath of Lex Acron wasn't one a person should witness. "She dares to defy me! In my absence, you all have lost your way. Nuriel?" his voice shook the throne room.

And the Lord of the flame sect and the most powerful mage of the flame sect Nuriel stepped out of the crowd "My supreme evil lord, I am at thy command". He knelt before Lex Acorn.

"Destroy the Earth sect. Behead their queen and her heirs and if anyone dares challenge you slaughter them on the spot."

Nuriel took the command, "Yes my Lord." he rose to his feet and teleported out of the throne room.

"Any news about my son?" Lex asked, his shoulders sagging a little.

Drakkar spoke up quickly. "I have monitored him, sir. He has grown up a normal human, my lord."

"Watch over him and keep him safe. No harm should befall him during his war. Is that understood?" he gave the order, and she took it.

"Understood, my lord." but her heart boiled as she exited the throne room .

Their lord had a weakness, that boy, it was a huge flaw to her great evil lord.

She vowed to herself that she would kill the boy before she let any harm befalls her lord through his hands as she left the palace of stars.

Xorn jerked awake, panting hard beads of sweat on his eyebrows. He gasped for air.

He couldn't remember the nightmare he just had, but it had been terrifying so terrifying that he shivered on a summer morning.

It was 6a.m, deciding to go for a jog. That would clear his head.

He put on his sports gear with his ear pods and took to the streets of new Orleans in the warm early morning.
