Will of chaos-Chapter 1690: Cap 1688: The Tomb and the Star Part 2
I always knew I was unlucky, but I didn’t expect it to be so unlucky. I was facing Hades trying to recover his destroyed body, something he had tried to do several times but always failed because of the interference of this universe rejecting us.
"< Divine Curse: Hades >" (me)
I needed to recreate Hades’ body, but his physical body was always a shell created by him with everything he ate. His true self was always the living Curse I created, that’s his core.
The Curse I created using him as a base was named after him for that reason, a Curse that I normally use precisely because I don’t understand all of its effects. The theory and practice are always different.
Using my blood to draw the magic circle, I use my power of Curse and Chaos to activate this magic on a small scale that consumes the power of Chaos around while a cloud of darkness comes out on the other side, points of light like stars light up inside the cloud almost letting the pair of deep eyes that opened with the emergence of the stars go unnoticed, seconds later the cloud of darkness disperses revealing Hades back in his almost Human form.
"Thank you for your grace, Master Zenos." (Hades)
"Don’t thank me, I wouldn’t leave you in that state." (me)
"(Be careful, I feel like we’re being watched.)" (me)
"(Where are they?)" (Hades)
"..." (me)
"Come, let’s meet up with the others." (me)
"(I don’t know, but it could be the Ascendants, be careful and wait for my signal.)" (me)
"(As you order.)" (Hades)
"When are we leaving?" (Hades)
"I’m not sure, it should be soon, but the distrust of the Dragons of this Universe has been working hard to go against us." (me)
"(Follow my lead.)" (me)
"Should we attack them?" (Hades)
"Yes, but not now, our group will recover faster, so we can wait until then." (me)
"As you wish." (Hades)
If it is the Ascendants watching, then Akatosh’s plans could backfire this way, they must believe we don’t know about them, they must believe an internal conflict could happen that they can take advantage of, we need time.
"(You think too much, they are not the Ascendants, look beyond space, I will help you...)" (Tarzor)
Soon the power of reality passes through my body from Tarzor who rises from my shadow, then my eyes become strange, my vision becomes abstract as I see two individuals intertwined by energy lines crossing space coming towards me, as soon as I saw them I realized I knew one of them.
It took only a few tens of seconds for them to arrive and they seemed to be coming towards me, I waited and soon the space opens and two individuals appear, one of them was carrying the other in his arms, it was Luci and behind her was a metal cube that looked like liquid while a heavy Aura of the Ascendant Laws emerges from it.
"Please help Mrs. Luci!!!"
"..." (me)

Pov Lolth:
I was surrounded by an incredibly comfortable energy and felt a great peace inside me, I was awake the whole time and could feel the changes in my body, there were many and even so it was a secondary concern.
What was really bothering me was my guilt about the past, even though I was no longer the Ruthless Elf of those days, that Elf was still a part of me.
"I don’t feel like I deserve this chance." (me)
"No, you don’t think you deserve it, the closer you get to finding happiness, the scarier you get." (me?)
"What do you mean?" (me)
"After that War, you abandoned the scepter, no matter how many answers you think of for that action, in the end it was because you didn’t feel worthy of continuing to hold it in your hands." (me?)
"You were given a second chance and what did you do with it? A new universe full of life and prosperity, but what did you do besides stay away?" (me?)
"Before the Anomalous Dragons invaded, what were you doing?" (me?)
"..." (me)
"You slept for 10 thousand years, left your children to their own devices and would have stayed that way for much longer if it weren’t for the invasion." (me?)
"You always take a step back, even now after you’ve decided to move forward, in a step that shouldn’t be difficult, here you are." (me?)
"I know, but changing isn’t easy." (me)
"You yourself are just my Will trying to keep me on the path I chose." (me)
In my mind I heard two voices, both voices were mine, one of them full of hesitation and uncertainty, the second full of confidence and calmness throwing the truth that could not be denied.
As much as my decision had been made, that didn’t mean it could change instantly, I had taken just one step on a long journey and now the time has come for a new step forward, the time to stop running away.
Sigh
Within me, Vitality was swallowing everything else, my body was changing, my senses were changing and my very Soul seemed to be changing, something was taking root inside me as a whole and trying to get out.
I open my eyes, but my vision was filled with light, but even so I saw it in front of me, the tree that was my first and oldest friend.
I could feel the pulses inside me becoming stronger, I could feel my Vitality on fire, a flower came out of my chest, its petals closed and colorless.
I ignore this flower as I continue to look at the tree and it soon disappeared leaving only a Scepter behind, I extend my hand that is now the claws of a Dragon and I notice there are branches gently wrapping my hand.
"Will you come with me in this new beginning?" (me)
"Yes..." (scepter)
The rays of light around me become streams of light that flow around me, so I hold the Scepter tighter as the pulse inside me becomes stronger and stronger, the flower in my chest grows bigger and bigger as its petals gain more and more colors, my body in turn becomes weaker until I no longer feel anything and am no longer able to move my body.
At that moment the flower finally trembles with its petals moving as it opens, thus absorbing the streams of light as well as my consciousness, my point of view changes as my Soul is shaken.
When I open my eyes again, I look behind me seeing my old body now just an empty shell, so I stretch my hand towards the scepter that was still in the hands of my old body.

"Come back to me, old friend..." (me)
As I stretch out my hand, my old body shatters and in turn the scepter also falls apart, revealing a new scepter inside that flies into my hands.
"It seems that I am not changing..." (me)
All the light around us was changing as if it had become liquid and began to flow towards us, penetrating my body as a dress materialized on my new body.
I no longer felt that hesitation, fear, anxiety or any emotion like before, it seems as if all of this had been a long time ago, a distant memory of what I am now, there is no weight on my shoulders this time.

Pov Zenos:
The moment the two appeared, I felt a wave of energy pass through me. It was Tarzor who moved before anyone else and had already swallowed the two works within himself. Seconds after that, a presence appeared in the surroundings.
The one who appeared in front of me was an Ascendant who had 7 wings behind her back. There were 3 pairs of open wings while only one single wing was closed. This Ascendant looked like an ordinary woman.
Her long brown hair reached her waist, her equally brown eyes were bright as if they were those of a child in an amusement park.
Her clothes were a set of plain clothes without decorations and there was no ornament, jewelry or accessory on her. There were also no marks or tattoos on her slightly brown white skin.
She was smiling friendly and behaving normally. Everything about her was so ’normal’ that it became strange in its falseness. The only thing that stood out about her were the wings that she showed with apparent pride.
Even her Aura was normal like that of ordinary people, it was just amplified much more than other people and all of this scares me since it is obviously fake.
"Where is she, answer..." (Ascending)
"< Spatial Movement: Activate >" (me)
I rip off one of the rings on my finger and it breaks, releasing a powerful magic that washes my body in Spatial magic, the space around me closes as if trying to crush me, but my body had already been pulled away as if I was going through a short tunnel.
When I came out on the other side I was in front of Karina trying to put the fingers of a Dragon back on, but as soon as I appeared here I felt several flows of Aura running through the area, it was the Dragons taking over the surroundings of this Planet.
One of these Auras was that of Akatosh who comes towards me as if he had teleported.
"We have to start the plan now." (Akatosh)
"Will it work? They are already here." (me)
"Never mind, do it now." (Akatosh)
"(Never a damn day of rest...!)" (me)
