Chapter 38: 38 – Gods vs The Old Ones ( 3 )

From what Thoth said, this Eye is strong. The creature also said that there is a leader behind it...'

Ignoring this for now, Poseidon then suggested, '' Come with us. We'll take you to a safe place where we can heal you.''

Thoth thanked him and began to follow Poseidon and Iris. The journey to the village was a quick one.

The Greek Gods, after they felt Poseidon's presence, appeared in front of him, who said, "Calm down, he is an ally. We found him, and he explained what happened here... the situation's more complicated than we thought.

Thoth then introduced himself, '' Hello everyone. My name is Thoth, and I am one of the gods of this realm. Our situation is complicated...''

Thoth then spoke about the current situation in Egypt. Poseidon heard him before, so he decided the time he had and use his communicator to call Pandora. 

It didn't take long for Pandora to answer, '' Hello?''

''Pandora, this is Poseidon.''

''Poseidon!? Have you reached the Nordic realm yet? ''

Poseidon sighed, ''If only it were that simple... the situation has changed, Pandora. The Egyptian Realm was attacked by Chaos creatures and most of the Gods died...'' 

Poseidon was honest with Pandora. 

'' Chaos creature ... what is it?''

' Kratos didn't tell her? But she saw what happened to the Sisters of Fate, so she knew their existence.'

'' It's the same kind of creature that killed the Sisters of Fate.''

Pandora remembered the scene in the Sisters' Palace. She then asked, ''Is Thoth alive? And Isis?'' 

''Yes, he and Isis are fine, but still, the enemy forces are here, and we decided to help. It will be a while longer before we get there. I wonder if Laufey can handle it. ''

Pandora looked at Laufey, who was stable but still sick, ''She can handle it. She's one of the strongest mortals I've seen." 

''Ok then. Talk to Kratos and ask him to stand guard against attacks. Be safe!''

''Bye.'' 

After talking to Pandora, Poseidon turned his attention to Thoth, who had finished speaking and was now getting to know the other gods better.

Hestia and Apollo tried to heal the Egyptian God wounds, but for some reason, nothing was working. 

'How is that possible!?" The powers of Hestia and Apollo together could bring Gods from the verge of death, just like they did with Kratos. Healing those wounds was supposed to be much simpler.

''The attack I received from the Eye ... I don't think it has any way to heal." 

The Greek gods looked at Thoth, waiting for an explanation. 

" I think their powers are our worst nightmare. Wounds don't heal when you receive an attack from a creature of that level of power." 

" The situation that was already bad, got even worse!" Hephaestus was getting nervous about the situation.

"Calm down. We have a slight advantage over that creature you mentioned.''

''What?''

" He doesn't know that new gods have entered the fray." 

Of course, the creature that trapped the Gods is quite powerful, but it was very difficult for them beat all the Egyptian Gods. If Seth had not betrayed the Realm, it was likely that the Gods would be able to protect it.

''But I am sure we will be able to deal with this Eye, but the problem is the leader he talked about. Maybe this leader is here, and I don't think we can fight him for now.''

After Hestia said this, the group began to discuss a plan to help the Egyptian Gods.

''How about a frontal attack?'' Apollo gave an idea.

'' That would be fine, but as I said before, that Leader might be hiding and waiting to attack. It wouldn't be smart.'' Hestia said quickly.

''But we can't keep waiting either. We have to end this as quickly as possible. Imagine what the Eye could do to the rest of the Gods in the meantime.''

The group continued to discuss strategies, but could not reach a consensus. One part wanted to attack without thinking, and the other part wanted to wait a bit and attack strategically.

Poseidon then gave his idea, '' How about I deal with this creature named Eye alone? While I deal with it, you destroy the barrier.''

Thoth looked at Poseidon in surprise, '' Are you sure you can fight the creature alone?''

Poseidon sighed, '' If I can't, no one here can. I am the strongest among us.''

Thoth nodded. He had already sensed that Poseidon was the strongest of all here. Worthy to be king of the Greek Gods.

The Gods then made a little plan to break the barrier. After everything was over, Poseidon asked Thoth, '' Can you tell me if there's a location with water around the place where the Gods were trapped?''

-------

The Tentacled Eye was looking at the Egyptian gods with a hungry look, 'If only I could feed on them... but I cannot. It's not worth suffering the will of our leader.'

' But I liked their reactions when I told them the fate of the mortals of this realm and the rest of the deities... a pity there were so few left.'

The surviving Gods were less than 10.

The Eye looked at Ra, '' How does it feel to be defeated without being able to do anything?! Are you going to cry?''

Ra just looked at the Eye and said nothing.

''You can look all you want... By the way, that Seth guy, we have him to thank. This invasion wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for him.''

When they mentioned Seth, Isis, who was usually a calm person, asked with a voice full of anger, '' At least tell me that you're going to betray him in the end.''

The Eye 'laughed', '' We will see about that...''

At that moment, the Chaos creature felt the presence of a powerful God, '' Who is this!?''

When the Egyptian Gods felt the power, they finally gained a little hope.

It didn't take long for Poseidon to appear in front of everyone. He had his Trident and Shield in hand, '' Hello there!''

Poseidon looked at the Gods, and his and Isis' gaze crossed, ' Wow... almost as beautiful as Athena.'

The Eye was already on guard, '' And who would you be?''

"Me? I'm just a God from another Realm who was passing through. Coincidence or not, I decided to help out when I saw the situation in the realm.'' Poseidon then asked, '' Who's Ra?''

The God who was called said, '' That's me.'''

''Thoth said hello.'' 

Ra instantly knew that the current situation was part of a plan.'' Is he all right?''

Poseidon smiled, knowing that Ra read the situation correctly, '' He's alive and well.''

The Eye, which was observing the situation, interrupted the conversation between them, '' What are you doing here?''

''As I said, I came to help the Gods of this realm. Now, creature, how about telling me why you attack this realm?''

The Eye, realizing that the situation was not good for him, started to speak, while Poseidon approached him, '' I would recommend you not to attack me. I am only a messenger of my lord, and he is nearby!''

Poseidon didn't stop, '' I don't know much about your plan, but I think this invasion is something you have been planning for a long time. And if you did it to this realm, you probably plan on doing the same to mine... so I can't let you get out of this alive. And as for your leader, let him come!''

Poseidon, before he attacked the Eye, observed his appearance, ' Tentacles around an eye... maybe he doesn't have a mouth? But how can I hear him? Telepathy, maybe?'

' But based on his appearance alone, I don't think he's that powerful. Besides that, he's hurt a little.'

The attack from the Egyptian Gods from when Thoth was escaping, dealt a huge amount of damage, so the creature was still healing.

Then, Poseidon attacked the creature.

For some reason, all creatures of the chaos that Poseidon came across, weren't using weapons or armor. Anyway, Poseidon went in the direction of the enemy.

The Eye realized that Poseidon was going to attack and turned away. Poseidon followed him.

'He's not that fast...'

Poseidon reached the Eye quickly and struck a blow with his trident. The creature had no way to escape, and some of its tentacles were cut off. But still, Poseidon and the Eye were surprised.

''How did you manage to tear off my tentacles!?''The Eye was a powerful creature. The attack by the Egyptian Gods was supposed to kill it, but thanks to its powerful stingers, it was only wounded.

''Why the hell are those tentacles so hard to break!?'' From the perspective of Poseidon, who had in his hands one of the strongest weapons of the Greek realm, and was one of the most powerful Gods to have ever existed, the tentacles were difficult to cut.

The two remained unanswered, and Poseidon attacked the Eye again. What the creature didn't realize, was that Poseidon was 'guiding' him to a location.

WITH RA

' This outsider... is strong! Much stronger than me.'

Ra and the Egyptian Gods stood watching the fight between Poseidon and the Eye, and didn't notice Thoth and the other Gods approaching.

'' Ra!'' Thoth called out.

All Gods then turned to the area where the voice came from. There, they found Thoth with the Greeks.

They would've shouted, but Thoth used his remaining hand to put on his lips, telling them not to shout, '' We are undercover here. Don't shout.''

The Greek Gods were already doing their job. They searched around the area of the barrier, to find the spot where Thoth escaped. The logic was, even though it was restored, it was easy to break down what was destroyed before.

The Egyptians noticed the actions of the Greeks and asked Thoth, ''Are they friends with that God over there? And what are they doing?''

Thoth answered quickly, '' They are the Greek Gods. And they are looking for the place where I escaped. We'll get you out of here while Poseidon takes care of the creature.''

'So that man's name is Poseidon...' Isis looked at the fight. Poseidon clearly had the advantage, and the location he was taking the fight was a watery place.

Ra quickly said, "The location is here. I've recorded the exact location.''

The Egyptian Gods inside the barrier and the Greek Gods outside positioned themselves in the same spot. '' Once we start doing that, the creature will probably notice. We have to be quick!

'' Are you ready?'' All present nodded.

'''Start!''' 

The Gods' attack hit the barrier, and immediately a small part of the barrier broke. But it was still not enough for the Gods to escape, so the attacks continued.

Out of nowhere, just as the barrier was about to break on the next attack, they heard the creature shout, '' FOR CTHULHU!''

A very powerful explosion occurred, sending all the Gods flying. At least the barrier was broken, and the Egyptian Gods got up and ran out of the barrier.

As soon as they were out, the barrier rebuilt itself again. When the dust cleared, all the Gods present were a little bruised, but what they really wanted to know was what had happened before.

When they looked in the direction of the explosion, all the gods present noticed that Poseidon was okay. He had his shield in front of him, and the Eye was nowhere to be seen.

'' He blew himself up... but why?'' Ra was going to continue talking, but a chaos portal of a size never seen before was opened near Poseidon.

This time, everyone could see what was inside the portal. It had a shape, but everything they felt had a name: FEAR.

This fear came from deep within their souls. Every cell in their bodies was telling them to run as far away as possible and never look back.

And in the middle of it all, Poseidon moved as soon as he noticed the portal opening. Luckily for the God, he was close to a place filled with water.

The Being behind the portal didn't move. He just looked at everyone present and stopped his eyes at the site of the explosion.

A suction occurred, and the Gods looked on in terror as the soul of the Eye, who was powerful enough to give them trouble, was easily swallowed by that Being.

After this, the chaos portal seemed unable to hold any longer and began to close. The Being, however, had not stopped.

Looking at Poseidon, who was now in the water, the Being attacked.

To say that the attack was powerful would be an understatement. Poseidon transformed into his water form and tried to defend the attack.

BOOM.

When the attacks collided, the realm shook. The part where the collision occurred was totally destroyed. The Gods, who were already injured by the other explosion, suffered further injuries.

When it was all over, Poseidon was still, but his condition was horrible. One of his arms was broken, and a huge bruise was on his chest as if a claw had passed through. But he was alive.

The Being behind the portal was surprised. A voice that contained every imaginable horror 'said', '' Interesting.''

The portal was already closing, and the Being said, "I'll remember you.''

Before the portal closed, however, the Being launched another attack, this time into the 'heart' of the Egyptian realm. When Ra realized this, it was too late, '' NO!!!''

Screaming did not change what happened. The attack hit the realm and broke it completely.

'' What have you done!?'' Ra shouted at the portal.

'' It's a gift for all of you. FEAR MY PRESENCE, OH FALSE GODS!'' The portal finally closed.

Poseidon, who had been standing until now, finally fell to the ground. All the Greek gods rushed towards him.

Hestia and Apollo quickly used their powers, but just like Thoth, the wounds made by the claw were not healed.

After a while, Hestia said, "He's alive. His arm should heal in a few days, but his chest... will have a scar.''

Looking at Poseidon's chest, which was the strongest of them, the Gods were afraid of the Being that attacked them, '' What was that?''

Hephaestus said, '' I heard Eye say Cthulhu before he died... could that be their leader?''

The Greek gods had no idea who it was. So, they carried the unconscious Poseidon close to the Egyptian Gods.
