Established Pinnacle: The Enigma-Chapter 214 Ancient Goddess Abigail I

"After all, the Gloom King, is also a Supreme God. And not only him, even his companion is also a Supreme Goddess, with the possibility of yet another one within the Cloud Palace."

"What are trying to say?" Hera frowned as she inquired. The three brothers stood away, not interacting in the meeting since it had to do with the throne and their little competition.

Enigma also did not change or influence anything, as he just continued watching as Fate rolled on by itself. His small Destiny Stream alerting him of what to expect.

"I'm trying to say that, if they were so strong, why did they send her down here for us to kill her instead?" He finally laid out his words to them, bringing out something they long ingored.

Everyone seemed shocked as they thought about it. But they still had doubts about it, so Rodriguez asked, "Isn't it because they are trying to test us, or maybe, even trying to form good relations with us?"

Reynolds shook his head immediately, "According to the report, she is at most a Supreme Goddess at her peak, making her divine core extremely pure.

"In that case, it could be used to nurture five Elder Gods or two initial God Lords in the Cloud Palace. But that's not all, good relations? Why would they, the arrogant Gods, want to do with a mortal Empire like ours?

"The relations between us and them has no value for them, and only for us. It's like the relationship between a Noble and a Slave. How would making ties with a mere Slave, benefit the Noble? Who has more than enough?

"And even if I agree to what you say; for example, let's take it that they really want to nurture us, but... for what exactly? Why do you all think they will Nurture us for, instead of their favored children?

"Those stupid Gods will never do anything that will not favor them, so tell me, by nurturing us, how will they benefit? There's no way they will benefit right?

"That is why... I think, no, I smell a feint scent of a conspiracy here. One that mind lead to either us losing our authority, or at most, our lives." He concluded with a stern expression.

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

Not only Herara, everyone was shocked by Reynolds words. The Heroes, Enigma and his two brothers as well as the other three royal candidates were shocked speechless.

Reynolds ignored their expressions and continued, "Have you realized, the ancients are being reborn. No prophecy about this was written, why do you think so?"

Everyone was still absorbed into his Mysteries and failed to respond. Not minding it, little Reynold continued, "One, either there really is none and the Old Gods forgot to write one. But that is impossible, they were powerful beings after all.

"So option two, they wrote the prophecy, but the Cloud Palace decided to hide it from us. As an important force of Cloud Palace before the current mess occurred, how come father is unaware of this prophecy? freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"I can only conclude that the Gods know about this and are hiding something. And that something, something truly precious and crucial for the New Era is about to appear. I have a feeling that...

"The Gods... want to use that said thing, to start a monopoly of the whole world or... want to destroy it and all the ancients, to start up a new world, with them as the strongest above.

"With them as the Ancient Gods, as the Old Gods, as well as the New Creators." He ended there with a sigh, as if he had just dropped a huge load off his shoulders. And he indeed did.

"...Baby brother, isn't your imagination, a bit too wild?" Rodriguez chuckled and tried to deny the words Reynolds said, but a seed of doubt had already been planted.

Especially since he had already long lost trust from the Gods. He would rather choose to believe his younger brother, than the Gods or even his father.

"These are just my thoughts and wild guesses... I could be overthinking things." Reynolds said and took a step back on the topic, he had already said his part for the day.

"...This is troublesome. So, why did you say we must not kill the Goddess? Remember, Quintillions died to her hands." Hera said with a frown.

Reynolds shrugged his shoulders and helplessly said, "Just to go against the Gods, I guess? And about that, what if it's not her fault that everything is occurring? How sure are we that this is all her planning?"

"What does that mean?" She questioned.

"Simple. She was thrown from the Cloud Palace, and did not descend willingly. My guess is, some God dropped her down, so, in simple terms... they deliberately threw her there, where billions of people were at?" He responded, albeit in a questioning manner.

He was also not sure himself.

"...."

"And, why did the Gods not come down to solve the problem when it occurred? Do you guys think its because they did not see the need to... Or because the death of Quintillions is part of their plan of ending everything...

"Or, they were the true cause of everything, and were afraid that their involvement would cause a problem or a flaw to rise up from their plan? Your choice to believe what you want.

"With Gods included, there are infinite possibilities after all. We cannot be sure of anything." He concluded sternly, facing his eldest sister without shying back.

Hera could not say anything to that as his words made sense. As a God, how could their aim be so terrible? Its plain truth that they deliberately did this to cause bad reputation for the Ancient Goddess.

Enigma, who was silent, also added, "His right. According to Fate, the Goddess of Abomination seems to be a Stray Goddess. Meaning that someone is trying to change her Fate."

"You mean?" Reynolds frowned as his heart beat faster. Enigma nodded to him with a smile, "Just what you're thinking. Her Fate, was never to die within the God Realm... at least, not within this time period."

"I knew it. Someone is deliberately playing with us through Fate, the Gods really are scheming." Reynolds excitedly said. Everyone could not help but frown as well.

"But, we can't go against the Cloud Palace." Rodriguez added, taking everyone out of their thoughts, as a problem he wanted a solution to, was presented out.

His Gaze towards a certain young boy, hoping that this little brother of his, would impress him once again. Not only him, even the others, including Enigma turned towards his direction.

Especially Enigma, who could not help but receive warnings from Fate, about a fateful encounter the young boy would come across not long into the future.

An occurrence that will make him stand out throughout all Realities, maybe even throughout the whole Verse, as mere Chosens, Champions or even the more frightening Ancient Origins...

Would not even hold a candle against his Destiny and Fortune. A being that Fate termed as, Children of Destiny, Fortunate Ones and Plot Influencers.

Beings that according to Killer's stories that she told him from time to time, when her mood was not overly too bad, were reminiscent to. Beings that were always Destined to reach the peak of the story.

Protagonists!!! f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

He was fortunate to find one in the making, and he was curious what awakening the child will need to truly become the so called... Protagonist!!!

"...We don't have to fight them. We just have to hold on until the second Calamity within the mortal world appears. During that period, we have to make sure that the ancient beings at least regain some of their powers.

"They are the only way out. Only they, can go against the hundreds of Gods within the Cloud Palace." Reynolds said after a brief thought. But ar this moment, someone intervened.

"Excuse me, I just had a sudden thought, but... can't the Gods hear our conversation as we speak?" Bella asked as everyone was about to continue with their plan.

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

" " " .... " " "

Silence pervaded out, as at this moment, everyone was too absorbed into the conversation they forgot about this. Everyone but Rodriguez, who helplessly shook his head and turned towards the three brothers.

He did not believe that they did not solve such a problem beforehand. Unless, they also had their own schemes in mind. Meanwhile, the others weren't calm at all.

Chaos was about to ensure.

"...SHIT!!!" Reynolds held his head in shock, "How could I have forgotten about such a factor?! I was too absorbed into figuring out their conspiracy, I let all my thoughts spill out. FUCK!!!"

"I guess we are dead." Rodriguez said casually. Hera looked at Code without saying anything. Though ignorant, he felt her feelings and smiled, "If we die, we'll die together."

He also remembered a bit of what happened back at the Domain of Goddess Abigail. He likewise knew that, Death would not be coming anytime soon!!
