The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 462 - The Olympians (III) & Training Starts (I)...

[Mount Olympus]

Zeus gasped in horror as soon as he finally found the name of the being responsible for killing the Fates. He shuddered in fear as his whole back was drenched in fear. 'I should have done this earlier' Zeus thought as he started to rub his face in fear.

Just like Zeus had thought, Kronos knew about the being even though his father has never met the being personally. In a corner of his mind, Zeus was glad that his father never met this being or he would have stopped existing… Zeus was quite sure of that.

'The Destroyer, The Leviathan of Destruction, The Harbinger of the End, The Destruction Incarnate' The being was known by various names, at least, Kronos thought that. Zeus didn't care about the names… he was more worried about what the being could do with a simple thought.

The Destroyer is the only being capable of handling the Power of Destruction with such expertise. So, Zeus was pretty sure that The Destroyer was responsible for killing the Fates. 

'But why did he do that?' Zeus wondered as according to him there was no reason to erase them as they were kind of neutral and insignificant when the whole Universe or the Multiverse was being considered.

Zeus was pretty sure that The Destroyer was targeting their Pantheon as a whole but he didn't remember doing anything to displease such a being. He didn't remember sleeping with any Supernatural woman recently… he was sure that wasn't it. He also didn't have his damned weapon!!

'Is it about that?' Zeus wondered fearfully. 'Is he attacking out Pantheon because my weapon was used against him? But I didn't feel my weapon being used' Zeus concluded. He was sure that The Destroyer was the mysterious being who was residing in Kuoh Town. 

He was sure whoever stole his weapon hadn't used it or he would have felt it… but no matter how much he wracked his brain, he couldn't think of anything else. 'I need to summon everyone for a meeting… our survival depends on it' Zeus concluded. 

"Oh… here you are. I have been looking for you, husband. I think there is some problem with the Fates' Hera spoke as she entered the library. She looked around curiously as until now, she had never seen her husband research something in the library. 

"... I know" Zeus said slowly as she put away the books with a wave of his hand. "That is why I was here" Zeus said while shaking his head. Hera finally noticed how pale her husband looked. 

"Are you alright, husband? Did anything else happen with Poseidon?" Hera asked softly. Everyone on Mount Olympus knew about the Master Bolt debacle… 

"No… I haven't talked with him since the last time" Zeus said while shaking his head. "I found what happened with the Fates, they were erased" Zeus said in a low tone but Hera still heard him clearly. 

Hera's hands shot towards her mouth as she gasped in horror. "Impossible!!" Hera muttered under her breath as she covered her mouth. 

"Who… who is the one responsible for doing something like that?" Hera questioned fearfully. With a complicated look on his face, Zeus finally started to explain everything. Hera was completely horrified as Zeus went on with the explanation. 

"Husband, you need to put away your personal issues with Poseidon until we finish dealing with the matter at hand" Hera said in a firm tone and Zeus nodded his head. 

"I already plan to do that… I am summoning everyone" Zeus said and Hera completely agreed with her husband, both of them knew that they had a very long night in front of them… and it isn't going to be a night filled with pleasure… 

[Kuoh Academy, Kuoh Town] 

A blue Magical Circle with the Crest of Sitri Clan appeared inside the Students Council room and moments later, Sona Sitri appeared inside the room in a bright flash of blue light. Sona Sitri looked around and released a relieved sigh. 

She was finally back in the Human World. She was really relieved to be back, the door of the backroom clicked open and Tsubaki Shinra peeked in. When the girl's gaze finally landed on Sona, the girl released a relieved sigh. 

"Kaichou, you are finally back?" Tsubaki said in an excited tone as she walked into the room. Other voices were also heard from the backroom and slowly the other Peerage members also trickled into the room.

"Yes, please sit down. I have something very important to announce" Sona said with a serious look on her face as she made her way towards her seat. Her Peerage members immediately gathered in front of her desk. 

Sona reached in front of her seat, but she didn't sit down. Before anyone could react, Sona bowed her head. All of her Peerage members gasped in shock and surprise. "Kaichou! What are…" Tsubaki wasn't able to finish her question as Sona began to speak. 

"First, allow me to apologize to all of you. I risked all of your lives during the recent incident due to my own stupidity" Sona said loudly and her Peerage members could only look around nervously. 

"Kaichou, you shouldn't be apolo…" Genshirou Saji began to speak but once again Sona cut him off. 

"Yes, as a King, I am responsible for the safety of my Peerage. I risked all of your lives unnecessarily… I thought I was a good King, but apparently, I still have a lot to learn" Sona said in a serious tone and she finally raised her head. 

"Once again, I am sorry. I messed up, I hope you could still trust me" Sona said with a straight face but her voice was whimpering. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath as she sat down. "Please have a seat" Sona said looking at her Peerage members. 

Her Peerage members nervously looked around but Tsubaki Shinra was the first one to take a seat. The others followed the Queen's example and sat down. Tsubaki Shinra wanted to defend her King but she knew that Sona needed to get it off her chest or it would keep bothering the girl. 

Sona Sitri nodded in satisfaction. She was really glad for having a Queen, like Tsubaki. "Now, let's move onto the announcement I was talking about" Sona said and everyone in the room tensed. 

"Rias Gremory or her Peerage isn't going to return to Kuoh Academy" Sona said and a couple of girls covered their mouths in horror as they gasped. 

"Lady Hela decided that she isn't good enough to manage Kuoh Town since she couldn't even manage her own Peerage" Sona said tersely as she glared at Saji. Saji simply looked down as he glared at his own hands. 

"I understand that you might want to help your friends… I am not asking to betray them or abandon them but you should have informed me before running off to confront a pair of Exorcists carrying Excaliburs" Sona chastised and Saji nodded his head with a guilty look on his face. 

"Oh… it might be different for Koneko Toujou, her sister, Kuroka had made a different type of deal with the Destroyer, so Lady Hela said that she could attend the school if she wanted" Sona added and Tsubaki and the others nodded their heads in understanding. 

"Now, in a couple of months, a Rating Game tournament is going to be held. All of the younger generation Kings must participate with their Peerages" Sona said and paused for a bit. She decided to wait for a bit so her Peerage members could digest all the information she gave them. 

"Kaichou, you mean we would have to go against Sairaorg Bael?" Tsubaki asked in a slightly nervous tone. Sona nodded her head. 

"Yes, thankfully, someone had decided to graciously train us" Sona said cryptically. Some of her Peerage members were excited after hearing that they were going to get trained but some became nervous. 

"The stakes are going to be high in the tournament. I haven't heard anything in detail as my sister didn't know much but from what Lady Hela had said… the stakes are going to be quite high but similarly, the rewards are going to be quite impressive too" 

"I hope all of you understand that we can't back out from this. I have also heard that Lady Hela is going to decide who are going to manage this town through this tournament… So, we need to give it our best or we might be removed from this town too" Sona said and everyone nodded their heads. All of their eyes were burning with determination. 

Tsubasa Yura raised her hand and Sona simply gestured her to continue. "May I ask who is going to train us?" The blue-haired girl questioned and a complicated look appeared on Sona's face after hearing the question. 

"...Yachiru Unohana is the one who is going to train us" Sona said after a few moments of silence and all of her Peerage members paled in fear. All of them remembered the scene of carnage from that night. 

"She had offered to train us. In return, I need to teach her how to play chess…" Sona explained and all of her peerage members were kind of gobsmacked after hearing the explanation. 

"We are going to start from training… all of you must behave respectfully, I don't need to remind you what might happen if you displease her, right?" Sona questioned and everyone vehemently shook their head in denial. 

To be honest, Sona was really looking forward to the training, she knew that she needed all the training she could get if she wanted to pit her Peerage against Sairaorg Bael's Peerage. Yachiru Unohana's dual personality aside, she was a pretty nice woman…
