Established Pinnacle: The Enigma-Chapter 213 Schemes From Above

No wonder, no sign of the Goddess of Abomination could be seen even after a week. She willingly hid herself!!

"Hmm? Yes, before she left... We couldn't kill her at all, niether could she kill us, so... she had to use the Domain to escape." He elaborated still with his smile, feeling strange.

Recently, he had been talking less due to his chaotic emotions. As of yet, there was no cue either than to learn how to control them, which was going great so far.

"Wow, you guys really are strong." She looked at them in admiration. Enigma shook his head helplessly, "Strong? We chased each other like cat and mice for half a year."

"I feel ashamed to admit that I'm strong when we couldn't even pin down... I meant, take down a Goddess with the five of us. I mean, we were literally ganging up on a young lady." He added.

"Five strong men." Allen also added.

"And we still failed." Su Han concluded. All three brothers nodded in synchronization as if to seal the deal; they were weak. Nobody could refute their words.

"B-But... you guys are only just half-gods as of yet." Herara tried to find a way out for them. And they looked at her for a moment, before speaking one at a time.

"I heard Code could fight initial Minor Gods." Enigma said.

"I heard Killer is stronger than Code." Allen added.

"The three of us Fear no God below Cosmic (Mid Outer) Influence as long as we work together." Su Han added as well, leaving everyone speechless.

"...."

"...." 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

"And she was just, but, a single lady." Enigma added once more. Allen did a follow up as if they did not yet prove their point, "One suppressed young lady, and five God-level men."

"We... we understand, can we move on now?" Reynolds bitterly smiled as he felt like they would never stop talking. He never saw someone so intent on damaging their own self-esteem so much.

With his intervention, Su Han was cut from saying his portion, thus ending the topic there, and perhaps off to serious ones.

"So, since we are done beating ourselves down... even though we were already at the bottom low, let's get to business." Hera's ruthless words did nothing to sooth the egos of the five men.

But Enigma didn't really care, like Killer, whom for some reason, had a different bearing than usual. She was less cold today, which surprised a lot of people.

Allen was always idle and didn't have any fighting spirit. Su Han had too much ego that this little failure barely damaged it.

As for Code, despite his cold face, he was an ignorant person. So ignorant, that he sometimes ignores his own feelings. So, None of them took this small occurrence to heart.

"Hm. We need to kill the Goddess unless peace will never be brought to the God Realm." Herara added with a stern expression, she then turned to the three brothers and inquired.

"Have you guys been updated about the current times? About the followers of the Goddess of Discord and Abomination?" She inquired with her stern face.

"Hm. We have gathered much information, along with evidence for what had occurred. More than 30% of the total population had been affected, while 18% have unfortunately died." Enigma nodded.

18% might seem small, but within a place that was quite large, being billions upon billions of miles wide, along with quintillions of populations... the numbers were irreversible.

"We have also realized how badly affected the Armies, and other important strongholds had been affected. The Gods were also not spared." Alen added casually.

"In that case, let us move on. How do you all think we should deal with this matter? Our strongest combatants so far failed." Herara took command and asked for everyone's opinion, including even her distasteful older brother.

Everyone else kept quiet and thought of a solution to their current problem. Most of them, as a few did not seem to care. Especially from the young Heroes like Jim and Jack.

But others were too much serious about the matter, the royal candidates being some of them. And amongst them, one whose Providence was ever rising, closed his eyes in careful thought.

Reynolds frowned and opened his eyes to looked at everyone. Though his behavior changed, he was still a bit timid inside, so he had to raise his hand before saying anything presumptuous.

"Hm? Do you want to say something baby brother?" Hera saw his actions and inquired with her blank face. Her words caused his face to heat up in embarrassment, but he steeled himself and ignored it. 𝗳𝒓𝚎e𝚠𝒆𝐛𝐧𝐨v𝚎Ɩ.co𝓶

"I... have something I'd like to say." He cleared his throat and said, avoiding Hera's eyes. Hera had power similar to Rodriguez but did not want the throne, which was strange since the new Radiant King will automatically become Supreme!!!

Of course, that included authority and not the true realm of power. Which was truly unfortunate, but it was still so questioning. 'Why did she not want the throne?' Even Rodriguez had such a thought.

Not only them, even Herara, and the Heroes. Hell even the curious Enigma was bent on knowing why. Fir no reason either than his boundless curiosity to everything.

"Go ahead. Speak your mind out." She responded apathetically. Everyone looked at her, then back at Reynolds. The now prince-like young man, was a bit more responsible than back then.

What did he have to say.

Hera, the first daughter of the Radiant King, and a woman who kept to herself.

She was a being who had boundless secrets, as she kept things to herself, and did not even interact much with Code pertaining to who she truly was.

She was a rare talent, though not as frightening as those Ancient Origins, she was still among the mid and high Chosens, being loved by the World itself.

She devoted everything to the management of the Radiant Empire, whilst not fighting for the throne with her siblings. She was also the most distant towards her father.

She also treated all her siblings equally and did not help anyone or go against the other. She also kept her emotions to herself, but everyone knew that she was a doting person...

So much that, outside the battle, she would even dote on Rodriguez, who was the older brother. Her only flaw was that she was too quiet and holed up all of her feelings.

Maybe that was from her being too secretive, a Trait that she might have take from Rodriguez when they were both young. The relationship between the both of them was likewise stronger, just like Herara and Reynolds.

She was more like her father. While Herara resembled their mother more. Rodriguez resembled their uncle, while Reynolds was his own person. His Fate did not seem like it would follow that of another.

And they knew themselves as well.

Rodriguez did not trust himself at being a king because he feared he would be the second Gloom King. He feared that power would get into his head.

Hera disliked being king because she disliked her father's way of doing things. And being almost like him, she feared becoming the second him when she took the throne.

Herara gave up on the throne, and chose her younger brother because she was like her mother. She was afraid of giving up everything for her husband and children, including her life... and leaving behind something like the current status of the Empire.

Hence why she believed Reynolds was better for the throne. Meanwhile Rodriguez and Hera also had their own thoughts pertaining to that.

"Go ahead." Rodriguez nodded. He had a better impression of this timid brother now. Not like he hated him to begin with, he just disapproved of him taking the throne.

And he still does now. Not only him, he disapproved of anyone else taking the throne, including himself. It would rather stay without a master, than the possibility of another impotent Ruler appearing.

"What if... we don't need to kill her?" Reynold looked carefully at everyone as he said, word for word, seriously. Surprising the three brothers slightly, including Killer as well.

His words then caused everyone to look at him strangely a moment later. But Herara, who loved him the most, still asked, "Why do you say so little brother? Even as your older sister, I think that's stupid."

"No, hear me out." Reynolds took a deep breathe in and out. "The Cloud Palace is strong. Even if father is a deterrent for them here, their strength is still enough to cause havoc here, right?"
