《The Titanic Fanatic》Chapter 5 - A New Obligation
Advertisement
John stayed silent. He wanted to ask so many questions about what he just witnessed, but he couldn’t bring himself to speak. Watching this friendly Titan fade away into Tartarus, John was shocked.
Throughout his visions, he had never seen, but only very slightly felt some of the unspeakable horrors placed in Tartarus. Some ancients beings were so powerful and so savage, that only the Primordial God Tartarus himself could suppress them in his domain.
One thing John did know, however, was that Coeus and most of the Titans did not at all belong there. In fact, John thought that Tartarus was actually the perfect place for a monster like Zeus. As John was thinking, he heard Coeus’ voice in his head, even though his body was almost completely gone.
I have shown you all that I was able. I trust that you can make the correct the decision for Mankind, and even the Universe, from here. Coeus said.
“I want to help. Truly, I do... but I can’t. I am just a mere mortal. I saw the power that the immortals wield. What am I supposed to do?” John implored.
You are no longer a mere mortal, my boy. You now have the Power of a Titan running in your veins. However, it will take time for you to learn how to use this power to its fullest, Coeus revealed in John’s mind.
John’s eyes widened in surprise and shock. “What? The power of a Titan? That’s impossible! I’ve seen what your kind could do! You could move mountains and destroy kingdoms!” John exclaimed. Quickly, John realized that his emotions were taking over and quickly regained his composure.
He focused and cleared his mind to the best of his ability. The last thing he should do at this point is doubt this Titan, who had shared his life’s most important experiences with him. He wanted to feel this power.

He tried to feel it, concentrated on the Titanic Power pulsing through his veins... but he felt no different.
Until the moment he did.
It was nothing much. Just a little flicker of sorts that he felt in his mind. If nothing else, this flicker gave him the indication that he contains extreme power, but he is unable to harness it at the moment. John didn’t quite understand how he came to this conclusion, but he trusted it. John guessed it was probably gut instinct.
Regardless, he turned his attention back to the fading Coeus. The Titan was almost gone, but John could still feel him in some way. As if... he was feeling the very essence of the being that is Coeus. But not just him. John felt another presence as well, and it seemed very familiar.
Realization dawned on him. Rax! He’s still looking for the exit! But then another realization dawned on him. I can feel other being’s presences now? John inferred, this Titanic Power is truly real!
If John didn’t fully believe any of this was happening or that he was gifted power, he sure did now.
But he still had one question. “Why me?” he asked to seemingly nobody, as at this point Coeus had all but disappeared. “Out of all the people in the world, why me?”
Surprisingly, the last vestiges of Coeus was still there to give him an answer, albeit a vague one. I was searching for a potential savior from the moment my essence escaped Tartarus temporarily. I then had help from a friend who gave me enough time to find one: you. You were the only human that I found in this world that was intelligent, driven, and reasonable enough to bear great power, while having a burning desire to be a great savior of humanity at the same time....

At this moment, John felt the last of Coeus return to Tartarus.
He sighed. I only wanted to save humanity from its own utter stupidity... Never in my wildest dreams did I expect that I would have to save humanity from the one that claims to protect it!
John looked up at the black ceiling, and slowly he started to see through it and saw the stars beyond, gazing into the night sky.
Now, he makes a decision that changes the course of his life forever.
"Zeus, I will destroy you! I will show the world the truth and set everyone against you! I will bring back the Titans to rule the Universe and bring about a new Golden Age! Zeus, Mark my Words!"

A race capable of corrupting living beings and inducing fear, even the bravest of warriors cannot resist—when the Fearmongers do not kill them, that is.To bait humans into this conflict, the gods offer the mortals powers in exchange of eternal servitude and the completion of trials before finally entering Iris.Even though Aito doesn’t agree with it, he sees in Iris a chance to atone for his past misdeeds, in this fantasy world of swords and magic filled with many races, where everything seems possible.He will pave his own path despite the gods he despises trying to manipulate him into doing their bidding.Aito will start with almost nothing but his wit, a peculiar system, and increased strength—much like other revived humans.Bearing a sin—he could not, cannot, and will not forget—haunting him to this day, Aito will strive to regain what little honor he has left.He will suffer and, at times, fail. Taking advantage of his weaknesses, the Fearmongers, demigods, gods, and many others will hinder his path.But a powerful yearning will keep him from falling apart. An ever-burning flame melting away the despair and welding back the broken pieces of courage.A single desire.«I will find redemption no matter the cost.»………Or not, hun, who knows? The book isn’t done yet. Haha—SLAP!«Who put this guy in the synopsis narration?! Get him out of here and launch the warnings! Now!»***WARNINGS:— The MC is human. If you’re looking for a perfect MC, you’ll only be wasting your time here. However, if you’re looking for an MC who will LEARN, GROW because of his flaws. An MC who will try his hardest to overcome adversity, then you’re in the right place.— No harems. However, it doesn’t mean the characters can’t fool around without having love interests. A relationship isn’t necessary for people to satisfy their physical desires.— You will find a few typos, grammatical and wording issues, that’s certain. I’ll do my best to bring you guys quality content and such issues will either be nonexistent or extremely few. However, one man can only do so much. If I get enough support, I’ll hire an EDITOR that will look at the chaps with a fresh eye. And POOF! Issues no more. Improved quality. Happier author and reader. Not sure if the editor will be happy tho.— The first three chapters are fast-paced as to quickly get into the nitty-gritty but slow down afterward to give the story the time it needs to progress accordingly.— The book can, never mind, it will contain «strong» language, gore and violence.— Comedy, as you know it (and if you don’t, now you know) is subjective. So you might not like the jokes.— If you truly read that until the end you have my virtual congratulations ‘cause I sure as hell wouldn’t have done that.
