Zernon became elated at the sight of the approaching god. The golden armoured god is his salvation. He screamed with all his might. "Help me, Zerkon. Help me."
He has no time for formalities like calling him the god of fate. He is too happy to act estranged. The helper he called for is the god of faith after releasing him from the contract of non-interference. The god of fate was the only god that didn't attend the divine council meeting so he was spared the fate of death.
It has been a long time since he called the god of faith his real name. Zernon didn't expect the god of fate to answer his call for help since he forced him to stay hidden all these years. But here he is. This just goes to show that he should have trusted the god of fate more.
Stelios became agitated when he noticed the new god. He also noticed the red specters chasing them but they don't matter yet. If he can't get Zernon then his fate is sealed anyway. So he began burning parts of himself to speed up and catch Zernon. It is very painful but it is a sacrifice he is willing to make for his life to get better. After all, he doesn't have much else to lose.
Unfortunately, a half-dead Celestial cannot compare to a fully healthy Celestial decked out in armor and ready for battle. There is no way he can match the god of fate in speed. The red spectres also couldn't catch up because the two of them are running towards the god of fate.
The god of fate closed in on Zernon first. He smiled when he reached Zernon.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) He said to him as he grabbed his target, "I'm here Zernon."
"Thanks for coming to help. I have mistreated you all these years and yet you have come to help me. Will you forgive me?"
Zernon was full of appreciation for Zerkon. He began thanking him and expressing remorse for his past behavior.
The god of fate stopped him. "There's no need for that. You were just doing what you had to do."
"Yes, I was. Wait, where are you going?"
Zernon noticed that Zerkon was flying toward Stelios instead of away from him. So he asked for information about their destination.
Zerkon replied, "To finish what I started."
The Celestial Supreme agreed. "That's good too. That ungrateful bastard betrayed me. Kill him for me. I am sure to heal a good portion if I can consume him."
"Oh, there will be killing and consumption for sure." Zerkon smiled and said.
Then the god of fate reached out and grabbed Stelios too. Next, his body inflated into a round ball that engulfed the two Celestial orbs. The red spectres watched unable to do anything as the god of fate took both the god of order and god of the sun.
Zernon and Stelios found themselves within a large space within the ball that the god of fate has become. Both of them are confused about what's going on. Their confusion was not cleared by what their captor said next.
Zerkon told them, "Now no one can interfere. You can fight to your heart's content."
The two of them would have hung their mouths open if they had mouths in their current state. They thought the god of fate came to rescue Zernon but it seems he has other plans. He wants them to fight to the death without interference.
Zernon asked in fear. "What are you doing brother?"
Gone is the calling of the real name. Zernon disregarded the use of names and resorted to pointing out their familial connection in this dire situation in hopes that Zerkon will change his mind.
"Brother?" The god of faith laughed. "When was the last time you called me that? I can't remember. But I do remember the last time I called you brother. It was back then when I begged you to spare me. I had just become a Celestial but you refused to bulge on your rules. You wanted to kill me. You wanted to kill your twin brother because of narcissism that you call principles."
Zernon begged. "I said I'm sorry. I had to."
"I knew you would do it because I know you had to. You have always been obsessively stubborn. I knew you would try to kill me and I knew you would fail. But I begged you to spare me anyway. You didn't listen to my pleas and you even refused to let me go when you couldn't kill me. You had to imprison me in my own divine kingdom before you were satisfied."
Zernon yelled, "Kill me then. If you are so bitter about how I treated you then you should kill me with your own hands. Kill me yourself."
"Oh, how I wish I could kill you. I am sure I would relish the pleasure of robbing you of your life. Unfortunately, I can't. I can't kill anything. It is the cost of being an observer."
Stelios' confusion has only grown stronger as he listened. He thought for a second that the god of fate wanted to kill him when he grabbed him. He was wrong about that but the reality of the situation doesn't make much sense either.
He thought to himself, 'The Celestial Supreme had a brother? The god of fate is a Celestial? The brother of the Celestial Supreme is the god of fate? He also had a son that he hid from all of us. There's so much we don't know about the Celestial Supreme. Now his brother wants to kill him instead of helping him? And I thought my family is messed up. My fake son tried to imprison me while I ate my real children.'
"Now finish what you started. Kill him." Zerkon said to Stelios.
Stelios is more than glad to kill Zernon. The two of them resumed their deathmatch under the gaze of the helper that Zernon called for meanwhile the red spectres are locked outside unable to interfere.
