Lord Shadow

Chapter 1386: The Sea and the Heavens ClashHe sighed.          

  ʼBrother. You might not think of much of my palace but I am worriedʼ then he added    

ʼThat you could so easily enter my Palaceʼ      

Today, Hades had shown some of his capability. Maybe, it is simply because he was unaware of what his action implies.    

Or maybe, Hades knows exactly what he was doing and he is sending a warning or a reminder. That there are still many things that the Olympians donʼt know about him    

Domain of an Olympian is not easily breached.      

But Hades simply come and go whenever and wherever he pleases.      

That is not a pleasant feeling for anybody. The worse thing is that Hades place is not like any other Olympians    

As far as Poseidon knows, even Zeus had to ask for permission to enter the Underworld. The Underworld is like a separate kingdom that even Zeus has no control over.      

In a way, the Underworld is quite independent from Olympus rule. It is not discussed or debated vigorously in the Hall of Olympus    

Because nobody wanted to offend Hades. And Demeter and Persephone is on his side. And he is also one of the Eldest Gods, the eldest even compared to Zeus.    

Nobody wanted to be entangled with Hades more than necessary. Even Ares fear this uncle of his      

The gods also could not enter into Underworld freely. Understandably, the Underworld is not a place the gods wanted to enter.    

But there is a difference between not wanting to enter and could not enter.      

Poseidon believe if Hades is in his dominion, nobody could defeat him even if the entire force of Olympus bears down on him.    

It is like an unbreakable fortress.    

Zeus might have think that he has won the lot, but who was the true winner of that lot.  But sometimes Poseidon wonders.    

Was Hades truly unaware that Zeus tampered with the lot? Was he really ignorant of that deed?    

Or was it exactly what he wanted. This doubt had plagued him for thousands of years. And he probably would never get the answer. But he is quite sure, Hades quite like his kingdom of the dead    

Hades grows stronger every year.      

Does he have no design on Olympus throne?      

If his Atlantis is as strong as the Underworld, he might already wage war against Olympus and take the throne of the sky    

Or is it because the throne of the Underworld holds more secret than any of the Olympians knows.      

Poseidon then look around his entire underwater palace and sighed.      

ʼI think I should order more seals to be put all over the palaceʼ      

Actually, even though he did not show much, he was pretty spooked with seeing Hades in his palace unannounced.          

Because, if he could appear anytime he wanted, then if one day, he fought against Hades, and Hades decided to throws him into Tartarus, who could stop him from entering Atlantis and capturing him?    

Such thought fills him with dread.    

He was about to call for his servants when suddenly the sound of thunder echoes above the sea. Lightning and thunderbolts seems to attack the sea.    

Dark clouds cover the entire planet and the sun was blocked by the clouds. Poseidon eyes look above and his gaze same to piece through the roof of his palace.    

He could see the dark clouds and he could see the thunderbolts and lightning. Then he saw two figures in the sky descending and look at the sea.    

His face changes and anger rises in his heart    

ʼBrat!ʼ Poseidon shouted, and the entire seabed trembles and quakes. The word suddenly shakes and the sea went wild.      

In the sky, there is a beautiful young man, with lean and athletic figure, a beardless youth with fiery hair that seems to spew heat that dissipate the clouds.      

Around him, fate and destiny seems to become solid and connection between cause and effect strengthened.      

On his back there is a bow.      

This bow is golden and there is also a batch quiver of golden arrows.    

Music seem to echoes around him and resounded in the sky, like it is announcing his descent.    

  But this music is not a happy one. It is harsh and unforgiving, a music that could influence people to fight and go to war.      

Dark forces had to retreat in front of these youth figure as his body seems to emit light.      

At first the light was dim. But as moment passes, these light seems to overwhelmed the dark clouds and increase the heat.      

The sea water under his feet is condensing into gas as it could not bear the heat coming off from this youth figure    

ʼApollo!ʼ      

Poseidon sneered. He could tell that this must be Zeus feeling angry and now he is sending his son and daughter.      

As for the other, it is none other than Artemis.      

The twin sister of Apollo.    

  She has an uncanny resemblance to Apollo and she too has a golden bow and arrow. Flying in the sky beside her is her hunting dog and a stag which emanates light.    

The arrows of Artemis are very sharp and it could cut through cosmic and divine energy among others.    

It is because it is the handiwork of both Hephaestus and Cyclops. Usually she would be with her maidens accompanying her in her journey    

The heroic Artemis riding her divine chariot pulled by six golden horned deer. Apollo is also there and Poseidon is angry at his rudeness.    

Yet compared to Apollo, Poseidon is angrier at Artemis. Poseidon has always been known to be very temperamental, a trait that is shared with Zeus.          

Seeing Artemis dares set foot into one of his main world, to seek him and called him from Atlantis itself, is a denigration of his power and an insult to his influence.      

And that is probably why Zeus send her to his world.    

To denigrate and insult him    

Poseidon eyes look at Artemis from his palace and he is angry.      

In the past, his twin son, Otos and Ephialtes is killed by Artemis. Of course, many of the gods believe that this is an unintentional accident.      

But how could Poseidon not know this is probably Artemis plans. If not her, it would be Zeus.      

His twin sons use to brag that if they could go to Olympus, they would kidnap Artemis and Hera and take them as wives.    

This is simply bragging and his twin son is not exactly bright in the head. It is a lot like autism only it manifested differently when it pertains to divine offspring.      

Hera probably also has a hand in his twin son death. That is why when Hera rebelled against Zeus a couple of years ago, he simply did not lend too much aid      

In the end, like it always has, Zeus once again regained Olympus. And Hera went back to her divine abode, separating herself from Zeus.      

Poseidon eyes is full of anger as he looks at the sky.    

ʼInsolent and rude brat!ʼ      

Poseidon then take a step forward and the moment he takes a step; in this planet a storm began to form all over the part of the world.      

Water tornado rises from the sea; sea monsters rises up from the depths.      

In a planet a few thousand light years away, something roared.      

There are many planets under the rule of Olympus.      

And there is one titanic planet that only has water creatures in it. There is only a few land and the land only occupied one percent of this planet surface    

Too much water does not always conducive to life. This world also has an erratic and extreme weather.      

The fluctuation of energy by Poseidon created a ripple of energy all over the galactic clusters closest to Olympus.      

This ripple is like a beacon, a siren song, a summoning bell.      

The sea of this world began to rumble, the storms and lightning and thunders all roars into existence, great tidal wave forms that startles all sea creatures.    

BOOOOM! A powerful explosion of energy erupted under the sea and sea water explode so high it pierces the clouds.      

Any sea creatures near the blast site were vaporized. There was silence for a while before the thunder and lightning once again roars.      

But then, from the area where the blast originated, something slowly to rise from the depths of the sea of this planet filled with water.      

A titanic monster slowly rises up from the sea bed. The emanation of its energy causes all sea creatures in the radius of tens of thousands of kilometers either get vaporized or dies instantly like the pressure crush their lungs and their ability to live.          

The pressure even causes the sea water to compressed like a block of stones.      

But that is not the only thing this monster is doing.      

As it emerges, it swallowed a huge amount of water. If anyone could see it, a block of huge amount of water was quickly drained by this monster.    

It rises to the top and it sizes is as huge as a continent, the energy coming out of him is surging and ever-increasing.    

Its eyes are as big as a hill and it look toward the sky. It hears the siren song, the summoning call, see the beacon, feeling the ripple.    

And this monster know that it is being summoned.      

And it could not disobey.      

Then it moves and it moves upwards like there is a force pushing him from below as it flew up to the sky.    

The clouds parted and the atmosphere seems to ripple and in just a few second this titanic monster is now in outer space.
