Divine Chapter 41
🕑 Added 2023-07-07 22:22:33 +0000 UTCA few minutes later after Victoria left the sitting room, Beta and Zeta entered the room who I requested Victoria to retrieve. But also following those ladies were Alpha and Beatrix, Alpha's aunt. "Ladies." I greeted giving them a nod and then I briefly went over knowledge that Victoria had extracted from Jack about the cult to make sure we were all on the same page of things.
Once that was completed I folded my arms over my chest as I spoke with a frown. "So we know Fenrir, his location here in Midgar, and much more... But besides Fenrir, there is the bigger threat of the Cult and their nonsense in Mordred who has the Black Rose." I said as I wondered how the hell the Black Rose would work in this version of the universe.
The universe of Eminence in Shadow was. Weird really, it wasn't just one world and actually was connected to many different planes of reality with humans themselves and magic not even being native to this world and only a consequence of the various planes connecting to one another and overlaying briefly... Well previously briefly before my alternate apparently decided to replace the other realms with universes or worlds that I knew of.
Either way, the Black Rose was an artifact that would forcibly open a portal to these other planes and do anything from summoning a super powerful demon from a hell dimension or just opening a portal to a plane of pure fire elemental energies which basically created a small sun. That Artifact was dangerous, as gods knew if that ego-maniac with how the universe was, may just open the doors to a true Daedric invasion akin to the Oblivion Crisis.
"Mordred is working behind in the scenes in the Oriana Kingdom. A kingdom in which our church hasn't had too much success in due to the people worshipping art itself rather than gods." Alpha spoke before coughing. "Actually Epsilon with her piano fame and Beta here, does have some sway with her literary talents. So perhaps they could gather information?" She led on with Beta pouting as she realized Alpha was pushing to send Beta on a long-distance mission but I shook my head.
"No, I got my own information... And I basically know who and where Mordred is and what he is doing." I said frowning as I recalled how the Orianna kingdom sect of the Diabolos cult was mind-controlling the king with Mordred having gaslighted and abused the queen into loving him apparently for his own ego to act as the king of the kingdom in the shadows. Mordred was a major ego-maniac so I had no doubt he would remain in the palace playing as king of the Oriana kingdom.
"The question. Is how we act upon this information." I said strongly as I folded my hands together to rest my chin on the back of my hands. "We have two Cult of Diabolos leader's dangling just of our grasp... The question is how do we kill both of them or even better, have the information on the other Knights of the Round extracted so we can go after the others." I explained and pondered before I continued.
"Unfortunately due to a warning from Amaterasu via one of her worshippers about a possible apocalyptic vampire uprising, I need to personally go put that down. Having the super strong vampires of this own world merge and be empowered by the patron of vampire Daedric Princes with Nirn magic would be... Terrible to put lightly." I shuddered at the thought.
I had no doubt Harkon was going to tear this world a new asshole with the violently powerful and primal magical energy that filled this world empowering his form to unseen levels... And not to mention he wouldn't be nerfed into the ground with him locked into a small room he could fly around in.
Harkon was literally thousands of years old and I would be surprised if he wasn't a Master or almost one in all the magical schools within Nirn merely by being the husband of Serana's mother who was, in fact, a major magic researcher who could do crazy stuff when she had the resources.
"Beatrix, I want you to go with Zeta to go kill Mordred and retrieve the Black Rose, do not speak with him. Do not let him monologue, I want him dead and the Black Rose artifact within the vaults under the church away from idiots hands." I finished with her glancing at Alpha before nodding to me as I took a breath and looked to Beta.
Beta twirled one of her fingers through her hair before freezing and pouting as I spoke. "Beta, I want you and Alpha with Victoria or 559 to go kill Fenrir, he is a mutt with too much pride in his own strength so take Delta as well and break him so you can get more information on the cult members as Jack refused to give up more information beyond those two members due to prior hatred and competition within the Cult." I explained with Alpha folding her arms under her prodigious breasts as she retorted.
"And you will go alone to the Lawless city and get involved in some apocalyptic scenario?" Alpha asked dryly and I nodded before I shrugged.
"I don't see much else in the possibility of anyone else coming with me," I said evenly. "As Epsilon is busy back in the capital along with Gamma who is watching our businesses and the mall to say nothing of her tripping on anything more disturbing than a particularly hard breeze... The only one left is Eta, and she is Eta... And thus either sleeping or working on some abomination combination of magic and technology." I dryly finished with Alpha's face twitching at my cold analysis of our forces.
After a moment Alpha sighed before she asked with some hope in her voice. "Can we just wait on Mordred until we deal with Fenrir first while I, or at least someone else in the Seven Shadow's come with you to the Lawless City?" Alpha bit her lip as she whispered softly. "We just want to help more... Seeing you bleeding out of your eyes and nose when you had to shut that portal made us all feel bad."
I paused taking in the girl's nod of disappointment in themselves and I mentally reviewed my information before exhaling and nodding. "Very well. Zeta I trust you, Beatrix and Delta can kill Fenrir correct?" I asked and Zeta the golden-haired panther beastkin nodded solemnly.
"I will keep the stupid dog on a leash, don't worry Jake," Zeta said somewhat smugly at how I instantly looked to her for the mission.
So with that said I continued while looking back to Alpha and Beta. "In that case, you two can come with me then." I finished and both elves wore a blinding smile at finally getting a more long-term mission in which we would be together without dozens of shadow garden members taking my attention.

Sorry just Grammerly auto correcting it for some ungodly reason

For the past few chaps youve been writing Epsilion instead of Epsilon, and also, you wrote "is Eta" twice in a row.
