《Re: Pessimist》Chapter 16: All is fair in love and war

So, we could either go to the military checkpoint and murder those fuckers outright or head to the city and give them a good old slap. Any voters?
I believe we should head towards the city, seeing as though it's the central area for the general military we will cover more ground that way. Besides, more people means more people dead and therefore it's more efficient if we actually get them.
What the hell, Flare? Since when did you openly start drawing tactical plans for Ewan?
I'm not arguing, I take it that she's grown.
Ever since that Nihilism title I've not felt any emotions and just felt empty. Then I got the four other titles and now I feel strangely elated whenever we actually... act like Ewan normally does.
So Flare has become a sadomasochist is basically what she's saying.
I AM NOT A MASOCHIST!
Well we could have this conversation or we could actually try and deal with the military forces which are now standing at the other end of this path... there's like seventy thousand of them I believe.
We had walked for a good while and had gotten to the end of the path where you could see like a fuck-ton of dragon warriors just waiting... preparing themselves so that they can thrust their swords into a child. What bloodly perverts.
I'm going to assume that they didn't trust you to begin with.
Also Ewan, remember how the Gods got pissed at you for just taking the titles despite it being theirs? They're going to be uber pissed off when you attack the dragons and technically declare war on them; starting another world war between the Gods and Dragons.
Fair point Sophia, I should clear some things up.
"AHEM!" I bellowed to get their attention. They all kept their guard up but still listened. "I AM A GOD, SO THAT MEANS WHEN I ATTACK YOU THE GODS ARE ATTACKING YOU! THINK OF IT LIKE REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY, ALTHOUGH SINCE YOU STILL HAVE A MONARCHY I'M NOT SURE IF YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT ENTAILS. BRITAIN HAS A MONARCHY AND WE STILL HAVE A DEMOCRACY SO I'M SURE WHAT WE'RE DOING EITHER, EXCEPT JUST WASTING OUR FUCKING TAXES!"

Alright! World War Seven!
Seven? Wow, they're really productive when it comes to war.
Why do I have a feeling that this will go down in history as a war that was started because of the monarchy and taxes?
Because it is now. So the most obvious way to start a war is with fire, so time to make it rain fire.
I generated some fire on my hand just to get started and to my surprise the flame was black. I'm guessing that Goddess of Death influenced that somehow.
Flare give me some strong fire ability.
[Agne]
"[Agne]" A literal shockwave of flames shot out with me at the epicentre, the entire landscape had burnt to a crisp with flames still lingering and the dragons were all dead... which is odd. However the spell didn't stop there, it was like I tore through space and time to bring meteors with black flames down onto the city and even flame geysers just appeared out of nowhere.
That worked well.
Due to recent actions you have gained the title:
Goddess of War
Well that was expected frankly, now the bigger question: how did I kill those dragons? You said my flame abilities were ineffective.
Necrotic flames. There's no living being able to withstand the flames of death.
Alright, so we're done here right?
Necrotic flames can be put out by the Divine water or Water of Youth. Dragons not only cry that but they also have the ability to use it. I'm sure they're going to be pissed when they put all of it out.
So we kick them while they're down?
Basically.
So with the use of Wildfire I made my way over to the city of dragons which I still have not heard the name of. When I had actually gone inside the city I decided to set my perception of time back to normal; to really enjoy the scene. Flare of course now a genocidal sadomasochist chose to manifest beside me... and boy did she change.

"What's wrong?" She looked down at me—yes DOWN at me, as if she didn't see it. Flare wasn't a midget any longer and was a full-grown woman, I say that but she doesn't really have any tits. Her hair was no longer that weird golden colour but still reached down to her knees oddly, instead it was a pitch-black colour with streaks of red in it. Her dress was rather different as well, it looked like one of those himations, like her hair it was black with parts of it appearing red.
"Oh you know... burning a city, innocent people being killed, neoliberalism and the fact that you're not a midget." When I spoke she looked down at herself, examining every single part of herself. It is a big change, I feel like she's trying to rub it in by not noticing it.
"I guess me becoming more powerful and gaining greater dominion made me no longer a minor deity and caused me to become an actual woman..." I feel like something is wrong with her sentence. She became a major deity and somehow that translates into actual woman. "Oooh, wait!"
A scythe appeared in her hand, it looked new with the shine on the blade, the handle itself was like her Flare again; red and black. Must be her stick.
Just so you guys are aware the Dragons are beginning to regroup and a lot of people have seen you two just standing here and talking. They are pretty sure you're the culprits.
We're aware Sophia, we are just being practical by letting the enemy come to us.
"Ewan, does something feel weird?" Flare inquired. I looked around for a second and... she was right. Something really didn't feel right.
"You're rig—AH FUCK THAT KILLS!" I yelled out.
"Okay, I know we're not the best of friends but you don't have to act like it hurts to compliment—FUCKING HELL WHY DOES IT HURT SO MUCH?" Flare clutched her abdomen in pain while I fell on my back and did the same.

"WHERE THE HELL IS SOPHIA?" Flare screamed out.
"I THINK THE PAIN IS WHAT I CARE ABOUT MORE!"
Of course I didn't really have the option to read the blue boxes since I was in so much bloody pain, had I done so I probably would've been more pissed off than I was.
