I.. Am God?

Chapter 166 The Olden Wrath

"You made her forget. You made everyone forget about your existence but I don't know why or how. Because you made her forget, something seemed missing inside her heart and that was making her heart ache. You don't know how influentially powerful your existence is to Nari."

"I know." Andre muttered, "I know my significance in her heart. I made her love me."

"Then why did you make her love you if you would just leave her! Don't you know how heartless you are?! You're a demon!" Moring yelled at him with hatred.

"Yes!" Andre responded back, "I am a demon!"

"I am someone who could and would order a slaughter of millions without batting an eye."

"I am someone who would personally slaughter countless lives and even children if I so wished."

"I am a demon who lived for countless years and had countless wives to bear my descendants and heirs!"

"Nari is but a child to my endless years of life, and I do not want myself back in her life again." Slowly, his eyes and expression became chilly and indifferent. "So don't ever tell her about me, or I'll make sure that you would be included to those whose memories I would erase. Understand?" He stated.

Moring paled and cowered, "I-I will really not let Nari near you ever again! Don't ever go near her either!" She yelled frantically before running away.

Andre stayed his gaze at her running figure, and when he was assured that she had really left, did he sit down and sighed sadly.

Suddenly, a voice from the dark alley interrupted his emotional moment, "You still haven't given up that mortality of yours?" A deep but teasing voice asked him mockingly.

Andre glanced at the newly arrived figure with indifference, "Why are you here, oh so brilliant and handsome God of Thunder?" He asked languidly.

p "Why? Can't I visit an old friend?" The figure chuckled and revealed himself from the dark. He was a 1.90 meters tall, handsome and masculine man whose looks could be called heavenly and divine. He had a laurel wreath on his head and he was clothed on a long robe and a cloak that cascaded down his shoulder and was fastened with a small shield medal with a lightning symbol. On his waist was a leather belt strapped on it with an eagle symbol in the middle.

Although his abs were covered with cloth, it could still be traced on the side that would cause men and women to drool.

"Psh. When did I even consider you 'a friend'? Andre sneered. "Hah! Good one, good one!" The man laughed with glee.

"Really, why are you here?" Andre asked once more. This time, the man's expression turned serious and replied, "I am here to tell you once more about what we have talked about three hundred years ago; Cast your mortality away and become a god."

Andre glared at him, "I have already told you hundreds of times that I do not want to be a god! What's hard to understand with that?" Andre reprimanded before turning his head away from him.

The man was silent for a moment before speaking once again, "Even if you do not want to become a god, this shouldn't be a problem isn't it?" He asked.

Andre glanced at him, "What is it?" He asked.

"Why don't you just kill her and everyone who shackles you in this mortal coil?" As soon as he finished, he was sent flying upwards as Andre clasped his hand hard on the man's neck and flew up, strangling the man.

"Zeus Kronides!" Andre growled with profound anger. His gaze seethed with wrath and furor. The skies turned dark and the surrounding temperature grew cold. The elements on the sky became restless as it all gathered around the two. The clouds crackled with rose gold thunder and Andre's eyes turned into a deep shade of purple as thousands of stars appeared on its surface. His hair stood and grew thousands of meters long and curled and spiraled, turning into sharp needles that pointed at Zeus that made him pitifully small. The surface of Andre's skin turned into dragon scales and an aura of royalty surrounded him. The fingers that were strangling Zeus turned sharp and punctured his neck, causing golden blood to ooze out.

The sight was frightening for anyone, but as if everything was normal, Zeus didn't even flinch or had the expression of fear. Instead, he had a smile on his face, "You manifested it once again. The Olden Wrath of The Ándras Ouroboros, The Godking of a Thousand Faces. I was about to forget it since you haven't used it for hundreds of millions of years. I didn't think you still had it in you." He spoke calmly.

Andre didn't respond and just looked straight at him. After a while of them gazing at each other, Andre spoke with a deep and draconic voice, "You think I won't kill you with what you said before?" Andre asked coldly.

Responding to the question, Zeus smiled even more, "You wouldn't. I am one of the major figures that maintains the balance between the Nine Godkings of Gaius. I also have influence below. Killing me would destroy the well-kept balance between the Three Triads and would make Atlas let go of this land, merging the realms of Gaius and Tartarus, bringing upon the dreaded Apocalypse." Zeus stated, "You wouldn't want that, do you?" He teased Andre.

Andre narrowed his eyes before pushing Zeus away. He returned to his previous form and glared angrily at Zeus. Zeus grinned widely and said, "What I have said before really is an offense towards you, so I apologize for that." He bowed to Andre gentlemanly.

The latter still had his eyes glaring at Zeus before saying, "You know me. I don't like anyone testing my limits. As long as no one touches those connected to me, I wouldn't hurt anybody."

"You wouldn't hurt anybody?" Zeus smirked, "Then what about the thing you said to that mortal woman?"

"You know that I did order an annihilation of millions, if not billions, for the sake of the restoration of the world." Andre stated.

"Oh, right. What was that called again? Oh! The Flood!" Zeus laughed loudly.

Andre glanced at Zeus and sneered, "If it weren't for you being sufficiently powerful at that time, you would've been one of the Titans that died in that event."

"I became strong because I casted off my mortality and became an immortal!" Zeus replied, "You, on the other hand, had already lived since time immemorial, but still hadn't casted off your mortality and is still a mortal to this day!"

"Oh shut it. It's boring to become an immortal like the rest of you." Andre sighed, "Although you look jolly, you don't even have a sliver of emotions, empathy, and compassion inside you. You reek of indifference and godliness."

Zeus smiled and stayed silent, not responding to Andre. Andre was cringing at the silence, so he asked, "How are your so-called concubines?"

Zeus scoffed and replied, "I wish. I would be hunted down by Hera if I had just a single concubine beside me. Although Hera is but the Keeper of Olympia, she still had that titanic power inside her that could make all the Olympians weep."

Andre laughed at his answer and descended down to their previous position. Zeus also descended with him while hiding their power.

"Anyways, I've got to go. Olympus can't be left unattended by its Godking lest the other Triads attack." Zeus said goodbye before flying and vanishing through thunder and lightning.

Andre gazed at the sky and sighed. He knows his power well. If he had the intention to become a god, he would immediately become a Godking and would become an important pillar of the worlds and realms, not being able to be freely do what he wants. It is one of the reasons why he didn't want to become one.

As for casting off his mortal coil, no one understands better than him the power that the mortal coil possesses. No one knows the true reality of an immortal in this realm other than him. As someone who had lived even beyond the existence of the realms, such ways of gaining "immortality" by shedding off one's mortal coil is but a joke. But, that idea has become too prevalent, so he would rather not tell anyone about the true way of immortality.

He then thought of the Three Triads that Zeus mentioned before. It was the division that he and the Nine Godkings created thousands of years after The Flood to establish a stalemate and a deterrence between the major powerhouses. The Three Triads are the following; Eternal, Golden, and the Buddhic Triads.

The Eternal Triad is led by Hleferoc, Godking of Heaven and has The Jade Emperor and Vishnu with him.

The Golden Triad has Zeus and the Olympus as its helm and with him were Odin and Ra, Godkings of Asgard and The Sun respectively.
