Chapter 1214: Three G.o.ds
Answering the summons, Zeus opened his eyes and glanced around.
Furrowing his brows, he was rather disappointed that he wasn't summoned in a grand temple in his name but rather a place in the wild that was surrounded by mountains.
Looking down, he saw the mortal he had given one of his cards accompanied by familiar faces. Faces that belonged to s.h.i.+ro's friends.
His displeasure only grew once he realised he wasn't the only one that was summoned. Next to him, Tyr the Norse G.o.d of War stood with a s.h.i.+t eating grin.
"Yo Zeus. Seems like you're not the go to choice for me to also be summoned. What an honour." Tyr smirked while Zeus ignored him. Because it wasn't just the two of them, there was a third unknown figure who was cloaked in a metallic veil that hid his entire body from every. Not even he could peer past the strange veil.
###
Seeing the avatars of three G.o.ds appear before them, Jacob swallowed his saliva while Madison stepped forward with a grin.
"Welcome, I do hope you're not offended by this area." Madison called out with a wave of her hand.
Waving back, Tyr had a smile on his face. He had long been warned by Thor and Odin to not mess with s.h.i.+ro and her friends for now. Their main goal is to take down Zeus and since s.h.i.+ro was their enemy, it wasn't a bad choice to be their allies.
"Of course not. Though I can't say the same for Zeus, seems like he isn't used to such a summon haha." Tyr laughed, causing Zeus to shoot him a glare before glancing past Madison to look at Jacob who summoned him.
"Have you considered my proposal mortal? The right choice is obvious and I have already given you plenty of time." Zeus asked with a frown.
However, Before Jacob could answer, Madison had already appeared next to Zeus' head.
"Bit rude aren't you. Ignoring me who welcomed you all." Madison sighed as lightning suddenly shot down from the sky.
"You dare stand upon my shoulder?" Zeus asked as one could tell he was clearly annoyed by her actions.
"Yikes, bit spicy. I'm not too big of a fan of spicy food so I'll prefer it if you didn't strike me with that again." Madison complained as the crest of Beelzebub could be seen on her arm.
"I'm not sure what your brother told you but I'm not afraid of you right now. And we're the one answering the questions so why don't drop the high and mighty act. Because sooner or later, if you keep this up, your head will be rolling on the ground." Madison warned as her eyes flared with a demonic red glow. Her killing intent exploded out as the skies seem to darken. A red glow filled the horizon as Madison raised her hand and pointed her index finger down.
*BANG!!!!
Suddenly, thousands of illusionary arms burst out of the ground and latched onto Zeus' body, pulling him down and attempted to make him kneel.
"You dare!" Zeus shouted out as he was truly answered by her actions.
However, before he could do anything, Madison transformed into her demi G.o.d form and kicked him in the back of his leg, forcing him to kneel befor sitting on his back while stomping his head to the ground.
"Why wouldn't I dare? I think you're misunderstanding old man. The new generation is already here and we have more potential than relics like you. If you can't even stand up to me, do you really think you're safe from s.h.i.+ro?" Madison asked while rubbing Zeus' face against the ground.
"Anyways, ignoring this idiot let's get onto why I had Jacob summon the three of you here. I hope you'll cooperate and explain to me what you're planning by distributing these cards. I also hope you can give us as much information as you can about some of the more hostile pantheons." Madison smiled.
"Hmm Well I'm not too informed about the goals but I do know that I had given this man my card because he interested me. If I were to have powerful avatar I can make a stronghold for myself in this world. If you want to know more I wouldn't mind if we have a small agreement." Tyr chuckled.
"Ohya? What kind of agreement?" Madison raised her eyebrow with interest while making sure Zeus couldn't talk.
"How about guaranteeing the Norse Pantheon a plot of land to be used for temples? We've certainly done our research and I can say that your group of people are without doubt the strongest on this planet. I also know of your potential so Odin has suggested us to form an alliance with you. Naturally, I prefer to fight for land but who am I to clash against the interest of the many?" Tyr shrugged.
"Hm I can't promise you but I can get you a meeting with s.h.i.+ro to talk things out." Madison offered.
"Good enough. I'll give you the information you want during the meeting then. Odin has informed me that Loki is keeping an eye on all of you so when you're ready, just contact her." Tyr replied before dismissing his avatar.
"Well that certainly went well. How about you?" Madison asked as she turned towards the shrouded figure.
"My interest from the start has been the weapons that he holds. The nan.o.bots interest me greatly. I would be happy with cooperation should I be given knowledge." The figure chuckled.
Raising his hand, he created another card that floated in front of Madison.
"I hope a meeting can be arranged as soon as possible with the creator of these nan.o.bots."
"Perhaps. Got a name I can mark down?" Madison asked as the figure paused and glanced back.
"Zenotype."
Without saying anything else, he disappeared, leaving just Zeus who was still under Madison's foot.
"Now then, it's just you left. Got anything to say before I break your neck?"
"Laugh all you want, but we all know s.h.i.+ro is the only thing you got going for you. When the G.o.ds come bearing their fangs towards your group, can she stop them all? You better start knowing your places." Zeus laughed as he started to stand up.
Surprised at his sudden growth in strength, Madison furrowed her brows and tried to exert more strength but Zeus let out a furious cry.
*BANG!!!
A pillar of lightning shot down from the sky and basked the entire area in lightning energy.
Immediately jumping in front of Jacob and the group, Madison slammed her arms together and activated a barrier, blocking the lightning.
Once the lightning died down, Madison forced a smile.
"Well well, you have certainly risked yourself, forcefully bringing so much of your power over. I wonder how this will affect the instability within the pantheon." Madison shouted out as Zeus now stood in front of them with lightning flickering across his body.
Feeling the aura he was giving out, Madison knew that he had summoned more of his strength from his main body. With this much power put into an avatar, should they win it'll certainly weaken Zeus by quite a large margin.
"There's no need to risk that. There's no need to fight, you'll step on a landmine eventually, incurring the wrath of G.o.ds. We could fight and without my full power, it may be difficult. But can you stop me from leaving? As for you Jacob, I am disappointed." Zeus shook his head as he turned around and prepared to leave.
He's had enough of this farce, once he deals with the rebels in his pantheon, he can finally focus on stabilising his position as the strongest pantheon once more. As for Madison and the others, he hates to admit it but he can't deal with them right now. His attention and forces are too spread out and divided. Only when he has made the proper preparations can he deal with their band of anomalies. This was the respect that he'll give them.
Transforming into a bolt of lightning, Zeus disappeared from the area, leaving Madison rather surprised that he could just leave like that. From what she had heard from s.h.i.+ro, she half expected Zeus to fight them to the death right now.
"I'm not sure I like this ending I'll be honest. It'll be easier if he was just your average meat head." Madison frowned.
"Well, thankfully Jacob wasn't harmed so let's call it there. We've got two meetings to sort out which isn't too bad and should let us learn more. Especially since we now have cards of our own that we can experiment with." Nan Tian said as Madison nodded her head.
"Bit of a shame that a fight didn't break out but I had my fun grinding his head into the dirt."
"Setting that aside, I just got some information if you are interested." Helion suddenly spoke up as the two looked over at him with surprise.
"Hephaestus left me a pretty er. Interesting note regarding the one called Zenotype." Helion scratched his head.
"In his words, the materials on Zenotype's body is not something you would find in other worlds or this one. It seems to be crafted from something that shouldn't technically exist since the composition of the materials is too imbalanced and there is a complete lack of harmony, yet it doesn't disappear. Its an anomaly similar to s.h.i.+ro's powers is what he said."
Hearing this, Nan Tian and Madison looked at one another.
"Seems like we'll need to organise a meeting sooner rather than later. It might be a case where he might lead us to something more." Nan Tian said as Madison agreed, making their way back to the city, Helion helped upgrade Jacbos weapon and armour for free while Nan Tian marked down the things he needed to tell s.h.i.+ro when she's finished with her current experiment.
