Will of chaos

575 Cap 573: Message to Demon Goddess Kalistos(Chapter preview)

The next day I was mentally exhausted, jobs that involve organization and planning are worse than simply doing things in practice with my own hands, plus I was already tired from everything that had happened the day before.

My mind was swarming with things to think about, about the God Fragment, about the Blood Demons, about the Blood Seal technique I learned thanks to Goddess Selene, about the plan in action, about the negotiation I will have to do with a Goddess, etc.

There were so many things on my mind to think about that I felt my head ready to explode at any moment, even though having the parallel thinking skill wasn't enough, that skill just meant I would be doubly mentally exhausted.

When it was already midday I managed to get back to the tower where Vanessa was eating with a smile on my face, I felt like hitting her for being so calm and relaxed while I could lose consciousness, I feel exhaustion at any moment, it was so unfair so much work has fallen on my head.

"Good morning Dad." (Vanessa)

"I've been waiting for you for hours, why did you take so long..." (Vanessa)

"..." (Vanessa)

"..." (I)

Before she finished speaking her expression hardened as she looked at me for some reason, but it still turns out that she stopped talking, that's why I was getting annoyed by her words.

I was running from place to place doing multiple things at the same time to dispatch people to the dungeons we already know the location of, I had also sent Kira, Elsaris, and their family to investigate the location of other dungeons.

Nix had given one of his scales to each of them after applying a few Runes, Nix said that since a living Dungeon was able to sense other Dungeons nearby, it was thanks to this that we found the location of so many Dungeons on our way here.

With the scales of Nix the exporters would be able to find Dungeons by places they are passing, knowing the location Ivan will be able to organize the rest even without me around.

But after so many things to hear someone say "why did you take so long" filled me with anger.

"Are you angry about something, Dad? Did I say something wrong?" (Vanessa)

"Don't worry, he's just a little tired from not being able to sleep from what I've been told." (Ragnar)

"I didn't know that, I've been stuck in this place since yesterday, this was the safest place for me to rest, so I stayed here all the time." (Vanessa)

"Now I'm well enough to use my Oracle skill, I was expecting you earlier because of that." (Vanessa)

Sigh

I take a deep breath to calm myself down, stress is normal for someone who has spent a night awake, I take a deep breath to control myself and get my head on straight.

Sigh

"Sorry Vanessa, I've just had to do a lot of things since yesterday, I'm not mad at you." (I)

"We can start when it's best for you." (I)

"We can do that now, but I need to know what you mean to the Goddess, I hope it's something that catches your attention." (Vanessa)

"(Me too, the plan depends on me getting this Demon Goddess of Death interested enough in what I have to say to listen to me.)" (I)

And I sit in a chair at the table prepared by someone for Vanessa to eat, then an Ogre brings me another plate of food, while I'm eating I tell Vanessa what she has to say when using her ability, unfortunately, the message had I had to be short because it didn't have enough sacred energy for a long message, so I had to shorten the message to be as objective as possible.

"I send this message on behalf of the son of the Goddess Selene who desires an agreement with the Demon Goddess of Death, Kalistos.

This agreement is about the release of the souls of thousands of people and about the Heretic God Fragment."

In the end, this was the message I wanted Vanessa to send the Demon Goddess Kalistos, a short and to the point message that makes very important points that I hope will be enough to attract the interest of this Goddess.

In this short message, I said that I am a child of the Goddess Selene, I spoke about the liberation of thousands of souls and I spoke about the Fragment of an Heretic God.

Everything I've said is true, I'm sure this Goddess will find out through these Blessings we receive in the same way that Goddess Selene and Goddess Aine always seem to know what I do, so I hope that's enough.

----------

After we finished eating the table and the dishes were taken away as Vanessa got on her knees spreading her red wings, she released her Aura completely quickly swirling across the room, a red energy with a golden touch emanating from her as she started to speak with eyes closed, head down and hands together.

Her appearance makes me imagine a kneeling angel praying.

"O Great Goddess Kalistos responsible for guiding souls to eternal rest, I am Vanessa a Priestess of the Blood Goddess Selene and I call for her attention." (Vanessa)

When Vanessa finished speaking all of her Aura and holy energy were compressed inside her and disappeared in a matter of seconds as she turned pale having to lean on the floor panting.

I waited for her to catch her breath and gave her a bottle of fresh blood, this is the Caryna blood I ordered earlier thinking something like this might happen, Caryna was very kind to accept to donate some of her blood.

Vanessa emptied the bottle as if she hadn't eaten in days, it looked like even Ibuki when she sees food.

After a few more minutes of lounging on a makeshift cobweb bed I made for her, I start asking her a few questions.

"It's better?" (I)

"Yeah, that was the first time I tried something like that, I almost couldn't get through all of your message." (Vanessa)

"Do you think she'll be interested?" (I)

"I don't know, but I hope so." (Vanessa)

I close my eyes as I try to think of possible changes to the plan, I have to think about what to do if this Goddess is not interested, that's when it reminds me of the World Tree, if I can get this Seed to grow like I was asked, then maybe I can ask for help from the Elf Queen or the World Tree itself.

"(This might work, if they aren't able to help more directly, then at least they should help as intermediaries with the high level Fairies and Spirits who could help.)" (I)
