RE: My Dragon Girlfriend In The Dragonic Apocalypse - Chapter 566: Battle Front: Astral Realm Part 4

Blake stood on the border of Achelous’ domain. He looked at the massive army that was built up by Achelous and snorted. “Bret, give them an ultimatum. Either they submit to us or die.”

“Alright.” Bret did not like this kind of tactic, but he knew in this world that this was the only way. He flew over and hovered at the edge of the border and yelled out. “My Lord has given you two options… Submit or Die!”

“Don’t listen to him! He is nothing but a weak mortal!” Achelous voice rang out over the battlefield. He did not dare leave his palace. He sent all the able-bodied men above twelve years of age to the front line. He only had so many people in his domain, and they did not even add up to a few hundred thousand. He was cursing the women of his domain for giving birth to too many females.

Hearing the words weak mortal made the men below eyes grow excited for battle. They raised their weapons and began shouting for blood. Bret sighed as he raised the weapon in his hand and shot it into the ground. A large molten crater formed. Out of nowhere. There was no sound or explosion, just a large crater big enough to fit a few thousand of them in. The cheering quickly quieted down.

“I will repeat myself once more. You submit or die.” Bret said coldly.

“Hah! Do you think my people will just lay down…. What are you doing!?” Achelous eyes went wide as he watched his people putting down their weapons. He was only a minor god who was not much more powerful than these demi gods. But he was still able to lord over them because he was a minor god. But now, he could only watch as they laid down their weapons and kneeled on the ground.

Hundreds of thousands of his people all knelt down. It was like a chain effect. Even those who did not see what happened quickly followed suit with the rest. Achelous was in shock. He had no idea what to say or do. His people had turned against him. He wanted to massacre all the women in his city, but when he went out to look for them, there was no one there. Only a young man stood at the bottom of the steps to his palace with a strange weapon on his shoulder.

“You must be wondering. Where are the females? Why is there only a man standing here.” Blake grinned as he said: “Do you think we would let you slaughter the innocent? This war is not about those who live here but the gods who sat on their fat asses while the devils invaded my planet.”

Achelous looked at Blake, stunned. He did not realize that this mortal was not here to kill everyone but only after the gods themselves. He gritted his teeth and asked: “What is the point of all of this? Even if you can beat all the minor gods, then what? There are still the higher gods and even Anu. How will you defeat them?”

“The same way one of my puppets was able to kill one of your gods with ease.” Blake threw a head to Achelous’ feet. Achelous looked down to see Andoins shocked eyes staring back at him. A shiver ran down Achelous’s spine. innead.co

“I see… so you only want us to fight the devils and die for you? Why? What have the humans done for us?” Achelous was not willing to give up.

“What have we done for you? We have allowed you to become gods, to begin with. The mortals of my world many of them have turned into gods after going through the trial. Some of you were born through mere worship. Achelous, you are one of these gods born from worship. This is why you are a minor god. This is why there are so many minor gods. Do not think I am dumb. You were born due to mortals’ worship.

“Do you think you can just live a happy life while those same mortals who once worshiped you are being taken as slaves and killed off by devils which you gods swore to protect in such an event happened!?” Blake was quite angry. A mere minor god dared to ask what mortals had done for him. He would not even be a god if not for them!

Achelous really could not find a comeback to Blake’s words. He knew this was a fact. It was mortals who allowed him to be a minor god and gave birth to him through worship. He did not think the mortals of new would even think of this. He began weighing the pros and cons. Either way, he would most likely die. But there was more of a chance of living if he submitted. Since he did not wish to risk it, he decided to lower his head. “I will submit….”

“A smart choice.” Blake smiled. Ishtar suddenly appeared next to Achelous, giving him a scare. He did not know why this higher god was even here. Even he needed to bow to this woman. “My wife will now burn a contract into your soul.”

Achelous heard the word wife and looked at Blake with a stunned expression. He then looked at Ishtar, who was smiling away, not denying it, and knew he had no choice. One of the few high gods that even Anu did not mess with was on this mortal’s side. All the other gods would be fools not to side with him.

After the contract with Achelous was settled, Ishtar frowned slightly. “Zeus! I know you are there.”

“Little Ishtar, how can you always sense me?” Zeus rubbed his head while smiling. “I have come to join your cause.”

“You realize if you join, you will need to be bound by contract, right?” Ishtar knew Zeus, so she was giving him a heads up of sorts.

“I know. You would force me anyway, so there is no problem. Plus, I have watched as you all went about your own thing. Making sure the demi gods were safe before attacking. Your husband is a decent man, and as someone who came from Earth, how can I not want to help out?”
