Chapter 237 - A Deathly Gift
"What?" Alfonso was stunned.
"You, with the demonic power of time" Said "Mirana".
No, the one currently speaking was the goddess of water, Maria.
"My brothers and sisters think that you shall be observer, as for me…"
Maria walked towards Alfonso.
"I prefer to eradicate the small three before it gets too tall" Said Maria.
"ALFONSO, RUN!"
A voice woke up Alfonso, he immediately turned to flee.
"A futile effort"
The voice of Maria was omnipotent.
The ears of Demeter and Artemis bleed while Aphrodite was pushed back, as for Dionisius, as he was the nearest, he fainted out.
Alfonso wanted to run; however, a force grabbed his body. He went all the way to be in front of the goddess.
"There must be some kind of misunderstanding here!" Said Alfonso.
"Blame yourself only, the power of time must be eradicated, SHE must be eradicated" Said Maria.
"[YING-YANG DOMAIN]"
"[MARK OF THE HUNTER]"
Demeter's eyes turned black and white while Artemis's eyes turned red, both of them went on the attack!
"Let him go!" Shouted Demeter.
"Hmph" Maria didn't even move.
The yellow scythe on Demeter's hand only passed the aquatic form of Maria, not making a single injury.
"Artemis! Tell me her weak points!" Shouted Demeter.
However, to her surprise, Artemis wasn't moving, she was stood on her place.
"There is none…"
"What!?"
"There are no weak points…" Said Artemis with a weak voice.
"Impossible…"
Maria didn't even turn around.
"Die" Said Maria.
She lifter her arm and went for Alfonso's neck!
"Alfonso!"
"No!"
Both Artemis and Demeter shouted desperately, however, neither could do anything.
However, just as Maria's arm was about to put and end to Alfonso's life…
"Hehe"
A small laugh could be heard.
"What?" Maria was suddenly surprised.
She looked back at Alfonso, she notices that something wasn't right.
"His eyes…"
To her surprise, the eyes of Alfonso, both, were green!
"It just me, or the kid is getting more and more shameful, actually telling me to help him~" The voice of Alfonso suddenly turned more… mocking.
Alfonso grabbed Maria's arm.
That's right, he actually grabbed it!
"Impossible!" Said Maria.
She tried to took out her arm, to her surprise, she couldn't move!
"What!?"
"Just a small trick, actually, I can't do anything to you" Said Alfonso.
"Hehe, however…"
Alfonso's smile grew bigger and bigger.
"I wonder how much time you have left~"
"You!" Maria was enraged.
She! A goddess, has actually be mocked by a mere human!
"You will pay for this humiliation!" Said Maria.
"Be my guess, little girl, however… let me tell you something before you go…"
Alfonso grabbed her face, and, with a crazy face, he said…
"The next time you appear before me" Alfonso licked his mouth.
"I will eat you"
Alfonso's hand grabbed a piece of Maria's hair and pulled it off!
Maria's face contracted a little and her eyes closed up.
Everything returned to normal and Mirana's body returned to normal leaving the invulnerable form.
"Whups" Alfonso grabbed Mirana's body who was falling down.
"Quite the good figure~" Murmured Alfonso.
"That's enough" A voice inside his head suddenly sounded.
"That's the way you talk to your savior~?"
"We both know that you did this because you wanted that thing that you have in your hand"
Alfonso looked at the cut hair of Maria which, for some strange reason, was still in the invulnerable form.
"Hehe, indeed"
Alfonso took the hair and crushed it with his hand, leaving only a pond of water .
Suddenly Alfonso's aura changed, his aura turned greener and his smiled become wider and wider.
"Ah~ that's the good stuff, well I will be going now"
Alfonso closed his eyes and his smile suddenly disappeared returning to his usual expression.
"What have I done?" Though Alfonso.
Of course, the one who helped him was Chrono, however, he knew that he had to paid a huge price.
"However, I don't know what that price was, the hair of a true god, what the hell do you plan to do that?" Pondered Alfonso.
"Everyone is alright?" Asked Alfonso.
"Yeah, somehow" Said Artemis.
"Alfonso, was that…?"
"Yeah…" Said Alfonso.
"You should not let him out that easily!" Said Artemis.
"I didn't have a choice, did I?" Said Alfonso.
"…" Artemis wanted to refute; however, she couldn't find the words to do so.
"Anyway, I will give this water to Hygeia, take care of everyone her" Said Alfonso.
Then, he departed from the place.
..........................................…
In the hallaway, Alfonso stopped at Hygeia's room.
*Knock* *Knock*
"My lord! What was everything just no-"
"Here, the water" Said Alfonso.
"Thanks , my lord, are you-"
"I will be going now then"
Alfonso closed the door and left the door.
He went out of the room without looking back and went outside.
"Ha,ha,ha" Alfonso was grasping for air as he went out of the inn as fast as he could.
"Why?"
"Why!?"
Alfonso couldn't help but repeat on his mind.
He touched his head and smacked his head hard in a wall.
*PUM*
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Shouted Alfonso.
"THIS RAGE!" Said Alfonso.
.......................................…..
"What did you do to the kid this time?" Asked Prometheus.
"Hehe, did you notice?" Said Chrono.
"Well, I won't be able to help the kid for some time, that's why, I need to leave some… insurance, so that he doesn't get himself killed" Said Chrono with a cheeky smile.
"What do you leave inside him?"
"Hehe, that's a surprise, after all, you don't want to see what the kid is capable up when he left himself get consumed~?" Asked Chrono.
"Are you talking about…"
"Hehe, things will get fun for now on…" Said Chrono while looking at the two blue hairs on his hands.
..........................................….
After some time, Alfonso went back to the inn, feeling calmer now.
"How is everyone doing?" Asked Alfonso while entering the room.
"Everything is good, Hygeia gave the medicine to Miss Mirana a few minutes ago" Said Io.
"When did you wake up?" Asked Alfonso.
"Fifteen minutes ago" Said Io.
"How is her?"
"She is sleeping" Answered Io.
"And Dimitri?"
"He hasn't wake up just yet" Said Io.
"Ok, let's get out of here after those two wake up, I don't think that the apparition of a god passed without notice, some people are going to investigate this, and we better not be here when they come" Said Alfonso.
"I understand" Said Io.
"Good, let Dimitri know that I will be waiting for him, he has to paid his part of the deal after all" Said Alfonso.
"As my lord wishes" Said Io.
Alfonso went outside, he sat down on the hallway and waited for some time.
A person appeared on the hallway.
The person looked at Alfonso for some time, before talking
"Why do you have to get into what is not your business?" Said the man.
"I will warm you, don't bother these two anymore, they are under the protection of Wasteland Valley, I will do as I have never seen you" Said Alfonso.
"…Ho? that's quite the treat, however, do you have the ability to keep up those words?" Said the man.
"…" Alfonso stood up and took out his eyepatch.
"For some reason, I am currently really mad, so, don't push me, or else, I will make you paid the price for your words" Said Alfonso.
Alfonso didn't know why he was feeling so angry; however, he knew that a sudden amount of rage was filling his head.
"…" The man looked at Alfonso for some minutes before sighing.
"Very well then, I will let my benefactor know your words, however, I still haven't heard your name" Said the man.
"Alfonso, Alfonso Lockheart" Said Alfonso.
"Very well, prince, I hope that you can keep your confidence later on" Said the man.
He left the site, leaving Alfonso alone in the dark.
"What did you do to me now? Chrono"
