Will of chaos

576 Cap 574: Trading with the Goddess Kalistos(Chapter preview)

I was very worried if I had managed to get the attention of the Demon Goddess Kalistos, because of that I had already started to think about some modifications to the plan that could give us similar results.

I spent the rest of the day resting, but even then I was still chipping away at some plans for the entire cleanup operation of this place to work without me.

I needed to go to other places on this continent, I had to go to the Poison Forest to visit this continent's Elf village, and then there was Diana's rise as a Champion of the Wolf God Fenrir.

I might need to go back to the City of Blood to speak with Queen Viviane, she could help us with that, or at least we could use the Temples and Churches in that city to get help.

Perhaps Queen Viviane can even come up with a less crazy solution to this situation than mine.

With all these things on my mind, I couldn't stay in this place for long, especially visiting the Elves' village, going there early might be the answer to this situation.

Knowing that the trip would still be long and we didn't have time to waste, I planned to leave the next day.

By nightfall, everything was resolved here and most of the problems with the people who will be left behind could be resolved.

I was lying inside the safest place in this place, the seal room, there were also guards watching the approach of monsters.

It was decided that Anton, Lyra, and Tania would stay behind in this place to work as support, they will repair weapons and armor, create replacement potions if necessary and create potions if necessary, they will also repair combat clothes.

With all this with the strength of all these people, the number of deaths must be low, I am sad at the idea of ​​people from the Dungeon dying, but they are all volunteers who know the risk, and everything I can do to avoid as many of them as possible dead I'm already doing.

I was so tired that I just wanted to lie down without thinking about anything and enjoy the starry sky, unfortunately, there is no way to see the sky of this old capital in ruins, I can only differentiate day and night because of the dungeon or even that would be something difficult to discover.

I was so tired...

... ... ...

-----------

It was late at night, the sky was beautiful and full of stars, I was lying on a soft blue grass.

"This is a dream?" (I)

I try to lift my head, but as I do, I find myself in front of a throne made of crystal headstones with engravings I don't understand written on them.

Sitting on this throne was an old woman drinking a cup of tea with kind eyes and a calm smile, when I blinked my eyes this old woman had disappeared and in her place was a very cute child drinking tea swinging her legs around the throne being too tall for her.

I feel something more and more bizarre in this landscape and look around, a field of blue grass surrounded by trees with yellow leaves with a starry sky in the sky, there were also dark clouds of concentrated miasma.

This whole place looked beautiful and calm on the surface, but I couldn't feel vitality anywhere, this environment was cold with a sense of death and desolation everywhere.

When I look again at the throne I see a beautiful young looking woman whose beauty can only be considered with Goddess Selene and Goddess Aine, this woman had loving eyes and a calm smile as she watched me, she waves her hand to approach me and when I realize I was sitting at a garden table with two seats.

I was facing the woman, she looked a little younger this time, she looked like someone who had just come from adolescence to adulthood, her black hair was down to her waist, her black eyes were full of innocent affection while they seemed to have no depth limit, their skin was white as snow, perhaps even whiter than that giving a feeling of excessive pallor.

At some point, I don't know a maid whose body was totally transparent appears next to the table and leaves some snacks and more tea for both of us, I was surprised to see this maid since she was a Ghost.

It felt like just like Ivan, this maid still had her own mind, this whole place made me think of the castle where I met the Goddess Selene several times.

"Welcome to the path of souls, Son of Selene."

"..." (I)

I look again at the person in front of me only to be faced with a middle aged version of the same woman, each time I look away her appearance changes to a different one, this is confusing my mind even more.

"It seems my appearance confuses you, so I'll keep something fixed so we can talk."

"How about now?"

This time her appearance changed as I looked at her, but I was not able to notice anything, it even looked like those cuts in the old TV series where the recording was used to change the character's clothes and put him in the same position for when he returned to record this time the impression of clothes have changed instantly.

Now her appearance has returned to that of the beautiful woman I'd been charmed by before, even though she hadn't formally introduced herself it was easy to figure out who she was.

"I'm grateful for just keeping an appearance, that was pretty weird by my standards." (I)

"You'll get used to strange visions and disturbing situations if you keep getting stronger, so don't worry."

"(I don't know if I want to get used to things like that.)" (I)

"As I was saying before, I am Kalistos, the Demon Goddess of Death, Guide of lost souls, the end of all things and the final executioner." (Goddess Kalistos)

"While you enjoyed the path of souls I took a look at your plan, I must say I am impressed by your courage and daring." (Goddess Kalistos)

"Please call me Zenos, Goddess Kalistos." (I)

I feel the Goddess staring at me, I felt that she could see everything in me unhindered.

"Don't worry, there are no secrets to be hidden or revealed in death." (Goddess Kalistos)

"I was just curious about you, isn't that what you wanted?" (Goddess Kalistos)

"So you know why I'm here?" (I)

"Yes, I know all about your plan too, I tried to avoid looking into many of your secrets as it would be rude to do such a thing without permission." (Goddess Kalistos)

"Your plan can be carried out, but unfortunately you don't have anything that can negotiate my help." (Goddess Kalistos)

"And the release of the souls imprisoned in that land of death?" (I)

"You also know that it's only a matter of time before that place is cleansed by the surrounding Realms, it will free the souls that have been suffering for so long in that place." (Goddess Kalistos)

"How about the Heretic God Fragment?" (I)

"I don't care, they're useless to me, plus there's no more Divine power in that Fragment." (Goddess Kalistos)

"You must know why I'm doing all this, right? Then why do you keep such a kind expression while showing so much indifference?" (I)

"I'm one of the oldest Goddesses in this Dimension, I'm older than Selene, besides, unlike her, I've always been a Goddess from the moment of my existence." (Goddess Kalistos)

"I have seen more wars than the number of drops of water that fill an ocean, I have seen wars that have destroyed worlds, universes, and entire dimensions." (Goddess Kalistos)

"I have seen fates worse than death, I can see this everything in existence impartially because of the way I see the world, as a Goddess I can see more from where I am than you can by walking among people." (Goddess Kalistos)

"I know that any move I make will cause more problems than it helps." (Goddess Kalistos)

"So because of the horrors of the past you've become desensitized to the lives of normal people?" (I)

"On the contrary, for these reasons, I welcome everyone in my arms with affection at their deaths." (Goddess Kalistos)

I have to convince her somehow, but she listens right, sooner or later the Realms around would realize the value of that land, the Goddess Fragment was called useless and my being a child of the Goddess Selene didn't work either.

"(What should I do now?)" (I)

"This is still a negotiation, what do you want that would be worth your help even indirectly?" (I)

"I wouldn't say anything, after all not much that someone with your strength could do for me even though you are." (Goddess Kalistos)

"But as I looked into your mind, I liked some of the things I saw in your mind, particularly what you intend to do with the Phantom Orb." (Goddess Kalistos)

"..." (I)

I knew she wouldn't be interested in the Phantom Orb itself, she was interested in my plans of what I would do with it.

"What do you really want Goddess?" (I)

"What I desire is..." (Goddess Kalistos)

"..." (I)

I thought I was bold, but the Goddess is even more so, she should already know about my plans and just didn't want to show her interest in it, I'm worried about what he told me, but I don't have time to think about it now, still talking necklace everything in place for this plan to proceed.
