Chapter 138 Heroes, Gods And Achievements I
Enigma had a bitter, hard to read, blank expression on his face, Allen could not help but stare in silence. But it was fine. At least he learned something new today. People at the peak of power... are bored as fuck.
'Why do I feel like a low level player spying and being spied on by the Administrators that created the game?' He sighed and went back to their current situation. 'If Fate is with me, can I... manipulate it?'
Before he could even delve into the powers of a True Law, he suddenly felt the sorounding divine power gather above them, then a beautiful voice of maturity, rang out proudly.
"Burst, Canon!!!"
BOOOOOM!!!!
A loud explosion disrupted the almost peaceful silence of the sorounding area, as a powerful colorful ray burst out and wiped out the trees and boulders, alongside the poor Butterfly. Following that, the gigantic trees began falling down, bringing chaos to the forest.
"Let's leave." Enigma proposed.
"Good idea." Allen agreed. But the moment they went out of the small cave, they felt murderous intent lock on to them straight away. When they looked up, they were greeted by a group of people.
"...."
"...."
"...."
Both parties only exchanged glances without saying anything. The other party had two young man around their age, one young girl around their age as well and a young adult around the age of their group leader, Jin.
The adult had a large cannon-like gun behind her, while the young lady held a white umbrella. Her clothes and umbrella were pure white. The two guys wore military-type gear and looked almost similar to each other.
Their clothing and gears were strange for people in a medieval period. Just like Enigma and Allen. Enigma wore something like ancient Roman attire, a white toga with golden edges/border and a tunica. Which now suited his long white hair, and gray eyes.
Allen, despite mostly staying in the wild and around amazons, wore something that resembled ancient Egyptian short kilt, made out of white material as well, with a hint of brown an black ad decorative patterns on the edges.
His upper body was bare, revealing his fit and slim muscles, and tanned skin. Other than that, he was covered in golden jewelry on the neck, wrist, around his upper arms and on his ankles, as well as on his ears, and head.
Both had their hair as pony tails, but Enigma's hair was longer, thus his pony tail went all the way down to his ankles, meanwhile Allen's hair was short, around his neck in terms of length. But the hairstyle still suited both of them.
"Egyptians?" One of the young boy finally broke the silence with a question directed at his peers. He had short blonde hair and quite the handsome disposition. He resembled a person of western origin.
The one who looked similar to him nudged him on the shoulder and corrected.
"No, I think Romanians." He said. He looked like a carbon copy of the first boy, which was an obvious display of their relations as identical twins. There was almost no difference between both brothers.
"...."
The young lady did not say anything and just flew down towards the two young man, Enigma and Allen. They could sense that she was around their strength, no, they could feel that she was weaker than them.
Around Higher Deity level. Allen was now around Deity Lord prowess, while Enigma, even as limited as he was, was still around Deity Lord level as well.
But the woman behind this girl was far stronger than the both of them combined. She was at most a ancient being, but far stronger, because Enigma felt like he would not feel this much pressure from an ancient being.
It was as if she was an ancient being with their manifested Divine Body constantly active, thus making them stronger than the former. Something similar to a Outer Demigod, if he had to put it in words.
"You..." She finally descended and pointed her small and delicate finger at him, yes him, as in Enigma Mystique. Her next set words shocking everyone greatly. "Can you be my man?"
" " ..... " " (Enigma & Allen)
" " ..... " " (The brothers)
"...."
Forget Enigma and Allen for a bit, even the two brothers were surprised while the woman looked at Enigma with a frown. 'Hahaha, is this the type of Fate you were talking about? Irresistible Fate?' Enigma thought, and the system ignored him.
"....."
"Miss, I'm sorry, but I'm kind of taken." Enigma smiled slightly, with his current complexion, he looked quite sickly and on the brink of Death. Which was good, but why what did this girl see in him?
"Really? Is she better than me?" The lady tilted her head and asked in confusion. Enigma really wanted to say yes, unfortunately, he felt like he would die if he were too rash and too fast with his response.
"....."
The girl might be cute, the cutest he has seen so far. She had a short height, a petite figure with small breasts and small curves, delicate facial expressions. Especially with her small nose and mouth, coupled with those curious purple eyes and black hair.
But still, Louise was was more beautiful, mature and up to his standards than her. But she was still cute, cute enough for him to accept her without an hesitation if Louise wasn't a part of his life.
"...I see, I'm sorry then." She gently bowed and wanted to turn around. She wouldn't force a person to be with her, she was afraid of betrayal. As for her approach, she just couldn't control herself. Enigma was just that beautiful.
But before she could leave, she stopped and looked back in surprise. The woman was now behind her with the large gun on Enigma's face, ready to pull the trigger at any moment, her gaze cold and emotionless.
The heat on the cannon-like gun made him feel uncomfortable and annoyed. Not because he could not bare it, but because it was right before his face. The scent if gun powder making it even worse.
"Since you won't have anything to do with us, I can proudly kill you right?" The woman with the gun was ready to pull the trigger, her facial expression still cold and stern. She apparently not joking with him.
'Whoa, whoa, why proudly? Miss, do we even know each other?' Enigma thought, but in reality, he kept quiet and sighed to his Fate. 'Irresistible Fate indeed. I would die by the hands of that big butterfly than like this.'
"...."
"...."
Allen was ready to summon his two Lost weapons and Garuda at any given moment. If she pulled the trigger, he would fight to the death with her... since he can't truly die. And he was confident he could kill her, at the cost of his life.
"Elder sister, if you pull the trigger, I'll kill myself as well, why do you have to always be like this?" The young lady sternly looked at the young woman and said. Her childish expression failed to reciprocate a stern one though.
"...."
"Fine then, scram." The young woman stopped charging her weapon with Divine power and lowered it. Then she pulled it back and put it on her shoulder. Her tone was annoying to both true gods, but they had no say into this.
"...."
Enigma sighed and slightly lowered his head as thanks to the young lady. As he was about to leave after calming down his faith points, the woman suddenly grabbed his shoulder and looked at him sternly.
"...."
"Are you... perhaps a God?" She asked with a frown. Enigma was almost about to use his faith points to explode her hand, the moment she held onto him, but his rationale was still strong. Thus he held back his annoyance.
"Say Yes. And play along with them"
"Yes." Enigma did not doubt the system and agreed to its suggestion. He had no other choice, he was weak, limited and could be considered sick. Plus, the System would never betray him.
"...Why are you so weak?" She looked at him in confusion and asked. The young lady facepalmed herself, "Big sister, take a careful look at him. And then ask yourself that question before making fool of yourself."
"...."
The lass' words were ruthless, and after another careful look, she realized that he appeared quite sickly and weak. As if understanding everything she knelt down, along with the young lady and the two boys.
"Forgive us for our rude manners. My name is Florence, the Hero King of Technology." She suddenly had 180° change of attitude and apologized. It was a genuine apology at that, which surprised both true gods.
This surprised Enigma even more, but he was not that shocked. He knew his own charm, it was around or better than most Main Gods. But, was that all it took to mistaken him as a God around here?
