Hey, guys ...

Today I was on a *Cough* short *Cough* train ride and I got bored so I decided to write something ...

Without further ado , please enjoy !

P.S. Small spoiler :

Etez, for the next 60 chapters or so there is not going to be any more girls ... The harem is kinda complete ... Next twelve-fifteen chapters are going to be about Hecate’s clan and then the war with the gods another twenty chapters or so . Well , I don’t force anyone to read this if you don’t like it so ... Good luck I guess !

Divine War Arc: Preparations

Question : What is ‘fear’ ?

Answer : ‘Fear’ is something unknown but still omnipresent , something that might last for a second or for your whole life , something that will always haunt you in your nightmare , something that not even gods can avoid . To be honest , in my humble opinion , fear is scarier that death . You can see your death approaching , you can feel it when it touches you , it might be painful , it might be slow but it always ends in a single way . After death you are free . Free of this world , free of all your pains and sufferings . But fear is something that has no end . It haunts you as long as even a sliver of your conscience exists . It is always there , in that small corner of your soul , intangible , invisible until , one day , her claws get you and you are his slave for eternity .

I’ve killed more than I can count . Neither gods nor devils could stop me . Cities collapsed and countries burnt before my might . But , even someone like me is not immune to that eternal beast known as Fear .

Today , I will do something that I never thought that I’ll have to do ... I’ll face my fear , my incertitude , my curse .

“Yeah right !!!! ” [Andel]

Do you really think I’m stupid ? Nope nope nope ! No matter what , if I were to spend a few days in the Spider City , I would definitely and without a fragment of doubt , die of a heart attack . I know that I could survive even if my heart would be plucked out of my chest , but , in that city , I would still die . Believe me !

This is why I got a solution . Tomorrow morning we are going to reach Arachnea . But , before that , I must prepare .

I had more than seven months to think about a solution to this life threatening problem . And , finally , I found it last night during one of my experiments .

So ... Let’s start !

Right now I am at about 1.000 km away from everyone else , inside a certain cave .

Ten bottles of liquor accompany me .

Nine bottles of liquor accompanies me .

First , let’s pluck my eyes out . What ? I can always restore my eyes , but never my soul .

It the silence of the night , a madman reaches for his eyes with both hands at the same time .

‘AAAAHHHHHHAAAAA’

Pfew ... That was fucked up ... Well , step one complete . I can’t see so the biggest threat has been nullified .

Well , although I don’t have my eyes anymore , this doesn’t mean that I can’t see anything . My divine sense is as reliable as ever . I could detect an ant from 100 km away and see it in my head at the atomic level .

This is why I’ll have to seal my divine sense to the point where I can’t distinguish a woman’s chest size when she stands right before me .

Still ... Putting seals on an existence’s divine sense means carving them directly on their body .

‘Gulp Gulp Gulp’

Seven bottles of liquor accompanies me .

‘HaaaaahhhAAAAhhh ...’

“God freaking damn it !!! Holly mother of all hamster demon lords that exists out there please blast me with your divine lighting for fucks sake !” [Andel]

Pfew ... That might have been the worst experience I’ve ever had ...

OK ... Now I can’t see anything and my divine sense can make out forms and movement , but not details .

Now ... Step three . Senses . If a hairy spider where to touch me with its legs , my imagination would make the worst out of it . So ... I’ll just have to pluck out all of my nerves in my skin to avoid this ...

‘Gulp Gulp Gulp’

Four bottles of liquor accompany me .

“Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck !!!!!” [Andel]

Pfew ... This was not that bad tho ... Ripping all of them using my Control was the right idea ... Of course , I kept some still in perfect shape so that I can keep doing my job at night if you know what I mean . Now , no matter how careless I could be , I doubt that there is any chance that any spiders are going to touch my private area ...

OK ... I’m done ... And I still have for bottles of liquor left ...

So ... Let’s go back ...

.......

.......

.......

Fuck ! I really don’t want to do this ... Well , whatever !

‘Gulp Gulp Gulp’

‘Gulp Gulp Gulp’

Zero bottles of liquor accompany me .

I am sorry my friend ... I know that this should never happen to you but , this time , it’s an exception .

I reach slowly towards my chest with my right hand ... Inside my head, I can hear a certain person screaming , but I ignore him ...

“Andel , you fucktard , if you dare to destroy the soul link that binds us I swear to god that I will tell you every single detail about the time when an angry shark run away with my left testicle . ” [Exodus]

That sounds terrifying in its own way , but spiders are worse ... Soul link . Something that is needed between a normal being and a divine artefact ... To create such a link it’s quite easy . All its needed is mutual trust between the two involved and a drop of soul blood . Then a chain connects your soul with that artefact .

“Do you hear me, motherfucker ? Stop right now or else I will haunt even your granddaughters telling them the story of that time when you got so drunk that you mistook that imp with a fairy and everything that happened after that . ” [Exodus]

So, linking is easy . Breaking the link is hard . To do that , you must break the chain using your own hands , which is freaking painful . I mean , the soul should be eternal and immortal , but you actually injure it in the process ... Now , why do I do this ? Simple ... Exodus is my divine weapon ... In this situation , I can see , hear and feel anything that he feels ... Sooooo ... Yap !

“For all its good and holy in this world stop this nonsense you imbecile or I’ll start singing all my songs that I learned during the time I was an admiral all night long .”[Exodus]

Well , I am not sure how painful it truly is , but I know someone from my past that knows that ... Her name is Lil ... She is the one that helped me get over Yra’s lost almost three thousand years ago . Her past is quite fucked up . Not on the same level as mine , but still up there .

She was from an elven village that was under the protection of a lesser dragon . At one point some thieves managed to steal a part of the treasure of that dragon . Furious , he went on a rampage on the small helpless elven village . The elves , trying to sooth his anger , offered a certain 14 years old virgin girl to him as a tribute ...

“Andelllll !!! Do you hear me you son of a bitch ? Stop this nonsense now ! I swear that I’ll never force my story upon you again . I will even help you with that yandere armour next time you have to use her !!!”[Exodus]

At that point, he stopped the rampage ... But still , who would have thought that instead of killing that poor girl , the dragon took her as his concubine for over 82 years until he was killed by another dragon during a territorial dispute .

Like I said , I was in Lil’s care for quite a while after Yra died ... Back then I was quite terrifying ... My aura would turn anything around me in a wasteland . With a single flick , a mountain would have been destroyed . Back then I killed quite a lot of people just because they were at the wrong time in the wrong place .

They would all run away when they sensed my presence . But she didn’t ... She offered me a place in her home and helped me with my seals ...

In the end , twelve years later when my seals were done and my anger started to calm down , I bid her farewell and went on my quest of creating a perfect world .

“Please for the love of god don’t do this to me, you perverted masochist . I don’t want to have a permanent scar on my soul because you can’t take a few spiders !”

Yes , at one point I think I fell in love with her ... But she never felt the same for me . She was the only girl I met so far that had no interest in me ... You could say that she is the one that I missed ...

Well anyway ... A thousand years later she became the head the Draconic Empire ... The irony ... At one point , she had to break the link with her divine artefact that granted her almost immortality ... She told me that the pain she felt was ten times worse that the first night with that dragon ...

“You idiot , I swear to god that I won’t remake the link with you if you break it . Do you hear me ? Andellll ... ” [Exodus]

“Hey, Exodus ... Do you know how it feels to be raped by a dragon ? ” [Andel]

“Hah ? What the hell are you talking about you psycho ? Of course not ...” [Exodus]

“Well ... LET’S FIND OUT !” [Andel]

‘HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHAAAAAAAAAAAAA’ [Andel]

‘OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HAAAAAAAAAA ... ARGH AAAAAAAAAAA’ [Exodus]

The ground started to tremble , the cave collapsed and the mountain was disintegrated at the subatomic level . A torrent of dark and crimson energy formed above me and Exodus . The clouds dissipated and the starlight dimmed .

A few minutes later , in the big plateau that formed after the mountain evaporated like it was never there , a chipped sword and a madman could be seen panting heavily .

“Uh hoh Uh hoh ... I ! SWEAR ! TO ! GOD ! THAT ! I ! WILL ! MAKE ! YOU ! PAY ! FOR ! THIS !” [Exodus]

“I think that I just got cured of arachnophobia ...” [Andel]
