Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 2507: The Gods

Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi represented these Astral Objects, but other Sun and Moon Gods also belonged to the Pantheons of each one of them, and often times switched between leaders, as their powers were quite equal.

For example, Selene, the Titan Goddess of the Moon, would sometimes take over the Divine Moon Pantheon, or other times it would be the God Chandra and the Goddess Anumati, who often times worked on pairs. This time, however, Tsukuyomi was chosen due to his resourcefulness and abilities... And because Selene wanted to take a break as a Leader of such a massive Pantheon, Diana, her daughter, was not ready yet to take her role.

”It seems weʼve been called, at long last, we meet once more, Lady Genesis,” Amaterasu gracefully greeted Genesis, her bright fiery red hair and golden eyes made her quite distinct immediately. Her majestic Japanese clothes, a mix between the bright golden, red, and white clothes of an Empress with those of a Japanese Shrine Maiden adorned her beautiful divine body, a huge crown shaped as a bright sun rested on top of her head.

”It is indeed an honor to meet you once more, Lady Genesis,” Tsukuyomi said, a man with a handsome face, silver eyes and long silver hair, wearing Japanese Onmyoji-styled clothes and wearing a crown resembling a half-moon. His gray and black clothes were quite notorious for their details of the moon and the night, and also of stars too, he was surrounded by several Moon Fairies, shaped as little Yokai-like creatures.

Several other gods were present, mostly from other Pantheons that had joined. The Sun and Moon Pantheon Gods were the most notorious and strong looking of them, large fiery giants from the sun, and majestic moon elves, fairies, moon rabbits, and multi-armed gods from the

moon

”Yeah, it has been eons since the last time I saw your true body, Genesis...”

However, amidst this entire congregation of Gods, a lugubrious voice carrying the essence of the Underworld echoed through the Cosmic Realm. Their eyes quickly turning towards him, the Gods gasped upon his presence, completely unexpected by many.

With pale white skin, as pale as a corpse, sharp red eyes, and long black hair, he walked forward, his tall, muscular body advanced, wearing a black toga, silver sandals, and armor made of bones, with a black helmet on top of his head, he made his presence rather clear to all.

His bident was long and looked intimidating, a powerful artifact capable of felling even the strongest of gods present here, it was clear he was someone that had already ascended into a Supreme God. Although rather recently and could not compare to the strength of the Older Supremes.

”Hades...” Genesis said, her eyes squinting. ”I was surprised when I heard that you, someone that believes in doing absolutely nothing for anybody, would like to cooperate with us.”

”I have my motives...” Hades sighed, looking down at the floor for a moment. ”And what motives are these? I must learn, or I simply cannot trust you,” Genesis said.

Hades remained in silence for a moment.

”They took Persephone away from me.”

The gods gasped, talking with one another as they heard Hadesʼ words.

Persephone, the Wife of Hades, the daughter of Zeus and the Goddess of Spring and Innocence, she was Hadesʼ entire reason to be alive, his world, his everything.

With her, Hades had three children which he loved dearly, Zagreus, The God of Undead Hunting, Makaria, the Goddess of Soul Healing, and Melinoe, the Goddess of the Duality Between Life and Death.

”Persephone... She was taken away from you?” Genesis asked, squinting her eyes. ”When did this happen?”

”Three days ago, when Tartarus was attacked by the Humans,” Said Hades. ”I managed to fend them off, but in the last moment, she was taken away, captured like a prey by their powerful technology. I was helpless, unable to get to her before they teleported away... I have to find her. This is one of the reasons why Iʼve decided to step in. My three children, Zagreus, Makaria, and Melinoe will also cooperate with all of you.”

”I see...” Nodded Genesis. ”That is indeed a good reason to trust you then, when your family is compromised... Very well.”

”As many can already guess I am also with someone else, an ally from the Spiritual Plane, she will be of great help. His name is Ferberite, a powerful Divine Spirit of the Spiritual Plane,”

Hades presented him to the group.

”Nice to meet you, everyone.”

Ferberite had a very tall complexion, slender and with a handsome face, and long, crystalline hair, he was completely composed of black gems, crystallization of darkness and death attribute spirit energy and his name was also the same as this black gemstone. He had sharp red eyes, and he seemed intimidating rather than friendly.

”We are quite aware of your little companion,” Genesis said rather annoyedly. ”If he ever tries anything funny though...”

”I assure you that I have no such intentions, Lady Genesis, Ruler and Primordial of this World,” Said Ferberite. ”My sister is the incarnation of evilness and wickedness, and I only have one mission, to slay her. I will do anything I can to achieve this. If I must ally you and help as much as possible, I shall. Hades here has become my good friend, and we share similar traits and opinions. We got along surprisingly well, and I trust him, as much as he trusts me.”

”...As he said,” Hades nodded.

Both remained expressionless, and indeed, seemed rather similar in the way they moved, acted, and even talked.

”Fine,” Genesis nodded. ”So be it! We are quite desperate in these times... Now, listen well. Weʼve called all of you here for a single purpose, to learn and understand the threats we must fight and to ultimately become our weapons against them.”

”But what is the plan? Can we truly go against all of them?” Tsukuyomi asked. ”I donʼt intend to offend you, Supremes... But even you must know that there are beings among the invaders that vastly surpass your powers.”

”We know,” the Supreme of Fate smiled. ”Thatʼs why we plan to not engage at all... In fact, we will make them kill each other. That so many came at the same time is actually a blessing in

disguise.”

Genesisʼ counterattack was about to begin, and the results of these battles would shape the future of this world forever.

And perhaps, even the Multiverse.
