Chapter 173: MEETING TWO QUEENS
3rd Person POV -
'' What war?''
Steve was quite surprised after hearing this. The war has claimed almost half of the world and here they are asking what war. He said, ''War. ... The great war. Many countries. Millions dead. Man, Women, Children. Innocents were killed villages burned to ashes. If Not stopped it can destroy the entire world.''
The Amazones were surprised after hearing this. Hypolytia knew that he has return. Ares has return. She ordered her sisters to take the man away and then before anyone can say anything she left. Usually she would have talked with her sister but some how today all she wanted is to go to her room.
Even she found her behaviour a little odd. When she entered her room she found a blonde women sitting on her bed. When she first saw her the first name that came in her mouth was ATHENNA.
But this women was not Athena. Hypolytia looked curious but before she can say anything women spoke,'' I always found Architecture very appealing especially the Greek one. I love it. And Besides Olympus may be your Thymersia is the best example of it.
I very much like this place. ''
Hypolytia was quite cautious. She asked,'' While I do appreciate it but who are you? ''
The women said,'' I am Anna Njorddottir. Queen of Vanaheim. Wife of Perseus.''
Hypolytia was even more cautious now. Because she have done some very naughty things with Perseus. She asked ,'' And why are you here?''
Anna looked at Hypolytia face and stance like she is ready to fight. She walked towards Hypolytia and said, '' I am not here to have any conflict and neither am I angry that You slept with ny husband.''
Anna circled her face with her finger and then put it on her chin. She brought her face near her and said,'' I do not mind He fucked you. I was very much busy the time he was here otherwise you would have found me with him.''
Hypolytia chuckled and said,'' You both are like each other. A big pervert.''
Instead of taking it as an insult Anna just smriked. She said,'' Thank you. I am happy that we are such a perfect match.''
Then she suddenly got serious. She said, '' Diana will want to go with him to stop the war and you will let her.''
Hypolytia said,'' I know Perseus wanted it. But truth to be told I do not want Diana to be away from me. I like her here where I can protect her. But outside I can not be much help to her. What if Ares did something? He is a powerful God. And Diana...''
Before she can continue Anna interjected, '' Is also very brave. I know as a mother you do not want to send her away but this is her destiny. She has to fight Ares. Even if you stopped her from going then what? Do you think Ares will let the Thymersia go once he have controlled the entire world? When he has destroyed the humanity?
No. After destroying the Human world his next step will be the Home of Amazons. He had no fond memories of this place. It will be even better to say that he hates this place and it's residents. So you have no option.
Because as everyone knows that he draws power from battle, bloodshed and other war related things and a war that can destroy the world was surely be the powerful enough to bring him back to his peak.
While right now he is healing from the wound given by Zeus. It is the best time to strike. And right now he is not much more powerful then Diana. But once he healed then he will be something that will be impossible to comprehend. If I am not wrong that time he will be almost as powerful as his past self and possibly even more. And then Diana will be no match for him.
And then percy will have to confront him. And the fight between those two at that time will be apocalyptic. So now is the best time to put an end to him.''
Hypolytia understood what Anna is saying but she was just too stubborn to accept it. She asked,'' Why does not Perseus fight him now? He can easily kill him right now.''
Anna said,'' You know very well why he can not fight him.''
Hypolytia hung her head in defeat. She said,'' Yes I know.'' She went and sat down on her bed.
Anna also sat down next to her. She said, '' Truth to be told Even Percy does not want Diana to fight. Although he do trust her and her ability but he is also worried about her. He actually asked Odin if he can interfere but Odin out right refused.
He talked about some ancient treaty that prohibit the Gods from interfering into the matters of other Pantheon. That's is the only reason that he has not confronted Ares by now. You should understand Although Perseus is one of the greatest Over lord of the universe but he is still the King of Vanaheim. Under the rule of Asgard and Odin and Frigga.
He can not refuse there orders. And I don't think he ever will.''
Hypolytia asked,'' You are right but I always have a question. Why did Odin allowed Perseus to create his own empire. I mean he did not allowed his other children to declare war and expand the territory because once Zeus told me that Odin is very much against expansion and war after he sacrificed his eye to the mimir. So why Perseus?''
Anna answered, '' I don't know. Although I am also a Goddess of wisdom but Odin is just on a different level. He is on a league of his own. But I do know one thing.
That Odin and Frigga loves Perseus. And may be it is one of the biggest reason that he allowed Perseus to do what he want. And it is also true for the other way around. Percy is the biggest Mama's boy. He can never say no to her.
And From some half a century Odin has taken a back seat and let his children make the decision. And I think it is helping gaining them experience.''
Hypolytia let out a breath and then asked ,'' So I have to let her go.''
Anna said,'' Yes''
Hypolytia asked,''Is there no way?''
Anna said,'' There is always a way. But Diana is the best way.''
Hypolytia asked,'' Nothing will happen to her? ''
Anna said,'' That I can promise.''
They sat in silence for sometime then they heard some one knocking on the door. Before Hypolytia can turn to let Anna go Anna was gone.
Door opened and
