Will of chaos-Chapter 1686: Cap 1684: Authority acquired
Pov Akatosh:
I look at the ethereal roots that take over this entire Star System retreating into space, I feel the weight falling back on my body even worse than before, all the muscles in my body contract and I feel as if the energy inside my body is being rejected.
I continue looking at the large sphere that represents the nest of the Anomalous Dragons that Tarzor took for himself, that sphere decreases in size in seconds as if it were being squeezed into nonexistence, but to my senses it was very easy to see a body covered in blood in the place where the sphere was before.
Soon what looked like ethereal wings appear and I see that they are not his who is flying towards me, that’s when I realized that it was a young woman with pale skin carrying him and those ethereal wings looked like a pair of hands with membranes between the thin fingers.
"Are you still not healed?" (me)
"I was... until now..." (Zenos)
"Master injured..." (Hinata)
"He’ll be fine, don’t worry girl." (me)
"< Divine Eclipse Magic: Moon Nourishment >" (Zenos)
From within Zenos comes a silver light that takes the form of a small Fragmented Moon, a powerful vital energy emanates from it falling like a silver waterfall on top of Zenos, the Power of Reality around him was not only crushing and cutting him, it was also corroding him as if the universe was blaming him for everything that happened here.
But the moon continued to nourish his body that recovered quickly, the flesh and bones moved as if they were separate parts reorganizing themselves until his body was completely recovered, a Divine energy emanating from all over his body intensifies the power of the universe against him.
Even for me, the universe wasn’t so violently against it and that made me worried about him, but then his body was covered in Starfire filled with stars that looked like moving eyes, the flames were devouring the Power of Reality around him like a swarm of carrion monsters before it harmed Zenos’ body.
When his body was completely healed and no longer suffering any damage from the protection of his Divine Flames, the Shattered Moon above him disappeared in a flash of silver light that entered his body.
"How long can you maintain this state?" (me)

"About 3 or 4 days at most." (Zenos)
"How is Tarzor?" (me)
"Ask him..." (Zenos)
"I’m fine, in fact I’m great, my universe has expanded a lot in the last few dozen hours." (Tarzor)
While talking to Zenos, he looks back where a shadow appears revealing eyes full of depth, they were Tarzor’s eyes, he answers my question with great happiness stamped in his deep voice.
I wanted to ask another question, but suddenly I noticed something strange, Hinata was holding Zenos without being affected by the flames around her, which was expected since it was her Divine Beast, but what caught my attention was that she was not affected by the Power of Reality.
"You don’t need to worry about her." (Zenos)
"How is she not being affected?" (me)
"I have no idea, just like most things involving Hinata, if I stopped to question every strangeness in her I would waste a few centuries doing it and perhaps I wouldn’t find answers to everything." (Zenos)
"I see..." (me)
This Divine Beast of Zenos has always been strange to an even greater degree than Zenos himself, as time goes by I realize this more and find myself paying more attention to it almost instinctively.
"I was waiting for you to leave, there are some things to be discussed." (me)
"I would have preferred to do this inside Tarzor, but he wouldn’t let me in." (me)
"He tried to get in, why didn’t you say anything to me?" (Zenos)
"It would be a little dangerous for him, it was already difficult to protect the population on the inhabited planets, having a God not connected to me inside would have been a risk for him in these conditions." (Tarzor)
"Did something happen inside?" (me)
"I gave some names and let’s just say it had an unexpected effect." (Zenos)
"Let’s say Zenos did what he always does and move on, being around him has its advantages for someone like me at least." (Tarzor)
"(Something big clearly happened, but did those outside notice? Where did Luci and Freya go?)" (me)
"Then let’s talk this way." (me)
"..." (Zenos)
I stretch out my hand and wait for Zenos to extend his hand to shake mine, during that contact our minds formed a small telepathic link where the information was transferred directly at high speed, in less than seconds we discussed the equivalent of hours and his once calm expression was serious again.
"I don’t like being left out." (Zenos)
"It had to be this way, you’re not the most discreet God... in fact you’re on the opposite side of the meaning of that word." (me)
"Then I’ll leave it in your hands." (Zenos)
"I just wanted to let you know, but now that you’re back, there’s going to be some Dragons who really want to talk to you." (me)
"..." (Zenos)
I needed to make Zenos aware of the years now, the Ascendants won’t just keep watch for much longer and I know I’m not a priority target for them.
I just hope he doesn’t ruin their plans.

Pov Zenos:
Hours earlier, inside Tarzor and above the Universal Tree.
Looking at the twins who were waiting to receive their names now, I was a little worried that I wouldn’t have time to think, fortunately a God’s thought process is extremely fast or it would be difficult for me to find a solution.
The truth is that creating a name becomes more difficult considering the one who will be named, naming a dog or cat is nothing compared to naming a child, especially for these two.
I like names that have a meaning behind them or at least come from an origin that you hope will influence their path, names that also mean part of who the person will become are fine.
"Haven’t you chosen something yet?" (Freya)
"..." (Mavis/Kalistos)
"Don’t rush me, I’ve already chosen a few names, I’m trying to filter through them." (me)
"Just choose any of them." (Kalistos)
"What matters is your intention in naming us, not the name itself." (Mavis)
"(No pressure at all, right...?)" (me)
Sigh
I think for a few more seconds, Hinata for some reason jumps off the top of my head, returning to her Human form and disappears, but the way her eyes shined, she must have gone to eat something.
"I’ve already chosen your names." (me)
"I’m not going to lie, your names were chosen from fictional characters from my old life, but do you still want to be given these names?" (me)
"What matters is your intention with these names, not their origins." (Mavis)
"I don’t care." (Kalistos)
"If it’s not too much trouble, I’d like to know why these names were chosen." (Freya)
"..." (me)
Freya seems genuinely curious about these names, Mavis seems more interested in the intention I put into these names and so she gave a small smile that was hard to see behind her veil when she heard Freya, but Kalistos didn’t show anything, be it impatience, disinterest or haste, she just kept waiting.
"Very well, to begin with, the two characters were chosen from fictional works that I like and they are interesting characters with importance in their works." (me)
"The name I chose for Mavis comes from a Goddess of Life, Fertility and Healing with a personality described as gentle... everything I see in herself." (me)
"The name I chose for Kalistos comes from an intelligent, calm and wise cybernetic entity that, regardless of its end, has always been a remarkable character... I see Kalistos in these same characteristics." (me)
"I don’t know what this cybernetic thing you’re talking about is, but it seems like you’ve thought about it too much in such a short time." (Freya)
"No, actually the opposite, those were the first 2 names that came to your mind, weren’t they?" (Mavis)
"How did you know?" (me)
"Because these characteristics that we already have are something that reminded you of these 2 characters, right?" (Kalistos)
"Yes, I can’t deny that, I tried to think of other names, but those 2 still stayed in my mind for some reason, so it seemed right to choose them." (me)
Mavis seems to have liked the meaning I chose for her name and Kalistos still doesn’t seem to care, but Freya liked my explanation and remained silent while I gave the names of the twins who remained silent again waiting for their names.
"Their names are..." (me)
I stand up and walk around the sphere of fire between us, then take Mavis’s hand in mine.
"For you I chose the name Lena, I hope you will be as kind in the future as you are now." (me)
"A good name indeed coming from your sincere intention, thank you." (Lena)
I then let go of her hand and step aside where I reach out my hand to hold Kalistos’.
"For you, I chose the name Cortana, I hope your decisions will always be as intelligent and wise as they are now." (me)
"A strange name to give an Entity, but at least it came from a true intention, thank you." (Cortana)
I thought I had done very well, but when I got up to go back to my seat, thinking it was over, I felt my whole body and soul tremble before hearing a sound that meant something I certainly didn’t like.
Ding!
