****** POV
"Enough small talk, I've prepared my self for this loss already, let's be on our way Adonis. We have alot to talk about." Zero couldn't afford to waste more time talking about wasting time. He was just going to do his part as one of the forerunners.
"No more outcast?" Adonis added chidingly. He hasn't achieved his full spite of the entity in from of him. Worse he was sharing his face that fact irked him unimaginably.
"Could stop wasting our time with this frivolous talk Adonis." Zero already getting sick of this charade.
"You brought me here, put me through all that stuff, watched my plight like it was an entertainment.
Now I'm a fucking 'Savior', and now your disappointed? You know what fuck you, fuck the mystery and the self-sacrificing rat that made me vomit while carrying me. Do you even hear yoursel..."
Before Adonis could finish his own moment, an overwhelming presence eclipsed his senses.
Fingers encircled his neck with effortless authority, as though Death itself had decided his lungs had borrowed enough air. His body refused to obey him. Only his heart still dared to move, pounding wildly on beat with the symphony that suddenly washed over him, like a choir presiding his funeral.
'Don't look-Don't look-Don't look' the thought encompassed his thought. But even knowing he was going die, that his death was assured he still had to look. The curiosity was stronger the feeling of fear, at least to see who could inspire such a feeling his body...
Adonis wasn't necessarily stupid, sure a closed off naive fool, and his mental issue didn't help his case. He still is one of the brightest minds in Evore, created two more Esse pathways to Demi-godhood by himself at just five. The founder of the light and moon elemental pathway, only few could even understand how hard this project was, especially in his own case. No one in the Evore academy knew more than him in the general anatomy of the seven blessed races. Adonis knew he was without flesh the moment he stepped out from the pool, but he didn't have time to note his full changes. But one thing was sure he couldn't breathe, he didn't need too.
But someone could scare him so much to replicate normal biology so much, he didn't have heart but something was beating. He didn't have lungs but he was breathing, he didn't have eyelids but somehow he shut his eyes. Like something was actively trying to leave his being and run.
Not even up to a micro second later, Adonis conceded to curiosity, what meet him was the devil. Not quite tho-Zero, now standing at seven feet. Every calm deposition of him in his mind earlier has disappeared, those two bright sun's of molten silver staring at him directly, his hair as if they had a mind of their own, were floating wildly behind him, thick astral silver aura surrounded his being. All Adonis could see was a countenance that promised slow death, the iron like fingers that clapsed at his neck kept melting into his neck. At the moment Adonis felt himself changing to something different, he tried summoning energy to at least beg for his life.
He was changing!!!
As if everything was but a bad dream, the iron like fingers, no 'talons' let go of his being. He fell on his knees embarrassingly and started taking heavy breaths, then stopped gulping in for air immediately he started thinking.
"Never in your insignificant life think or talk about my companion like that, or worse desecrate his sacrifice in that manner. A good stranger gave his life for your undeserving one." Zero said with froth disdain. Like a strange combination of sensual and menacing he paced towards Adonis, staring down at him in disdain.
Adonis looked up at the two molten silver staring down at him, the white star-shaped irises ever spinning. The beautiful god staring down at him in disdain-More like a mad god, braids that moved like they where in water, ever suppressesing aura. He knew the divinely crafted stoic face promised him not but pain and despair.
Adonis hated this position so much, it reminded him of his everyday life looking up to someone desperately pleading-Every-Single-Time.
Oohhh he wanted to say something so badly, to tell him his not scared, to shout, to scream. Embarrassingly enough he couldn't even utter a single word, but watch as the god bent towards his eye level.
"I offer you mercy..."
Adonis couldn't believe what he was hearing, as if to douse his budding feeling of relief, Zero wasn't done saying his piece. Zero placed his hands on his face covering
"But that the filth-The blasphemy can't be forgiven.
I curse you Adonis Luner Evernight.
You shall see all. You shall see the truth. Your shall discern.
I curse you with truth. I curse your eyes, for they shall see all.
You and the world of man shall be in amenity for as long as you live."
He looked upwards to the almost cloudless night, staring directly at me.
Suddenly the veil was lifted above Adonis eye's and he saw.
HE COULD SEE!!
HE COULD FINALLY SEE!!!!
SHE ALLLOWED A NEXUS.
HAHAHA!!!!!
A NEXUS HAS FINALLY BEEN CREATED!!!
HAHAHA!!!!
The glee in my heart was exhilarating.
Finally a 'NEXUS' point, we have created a truth seeker.
All that is left is that...
Adonis POV
The spectrum got brighter, incredibly bright. I could see light, the vast rainbow waterfall, colors I've been able to see before, floating myriads of particles. He could everything individually, he could register an infinite number of particles at once. This information is something a mortal can thread upon. He was dying, complete existential disintegration. His Esse body was breaking down. The pain that came suddenly disappeared, a feeling of relief washed his being. He looked towards the swirling mass of molten silver worms that was Zero, like it was once schizophrenic nuances, the glitched back his original form.
Although now I wondered what his original was.
"You see it now don't you?" He asked in mock curiosity.
I could see-I could see?
I looked towards the city, the used-to-be vibrant city. The vibrant and soulful night city.
SODOM!!
CITY OF SIN!!
CITY OF SIN!!!
SIN....
SIN...
SIN.....
Red miasma filled the air, the soulful people earlier have become decaying wraiths with an almost transparent body. Some people still remained in their skin. Possibly for the reason now...
Absolute debauchery-Like a grand orgy was taking place everywhere, a drunk man to two whores, a whore to two drunk men, teenagers, age taboos, it was horrid. I couldn't even control my own legs as a walked towards a father I saw earlier buying candy for his kids now fucking the female shop owner.
"Hello stop" My words all landed on deaf ears as he continued pistoning the shop owner his daughters age, while his daughter watched eagerly waiting.
"What do you want? Can't you see I'm busy? See my daughter over there she's getting impatient, satisfy her for a while would you." To say I want taken aback would be a lie, I was aghast in all myriads of ways.
"Our you want to join me?" All of a sudden a man came at the front to insert his genital in her mouth.
"Bro how you doing, since it's all preoccupied could you wait or fuck my ass while waiting."
I was completely aghast at everything said around me. Man to man and woman to woman all having sex. It was making me incredibly uncomfortable.
