The heroes gathered in a temple made from gold. The statues at the entrance tower over them.
The walls were lined with marble and quartz crystal tiles, pillars and treasure made in the goddesses twisted image.
The sat around a table across each other on golden chairs with cotton and silk. Kai glanced around the room impatiently, his landed on Bjorn.
"Hey! Leader! When is she getting here?" Kai asked, his impatience clinging into every word.
Bjorn stared at Kai with disgust written all over his face. Kai sneered at him, rage simmering in him.
Just as the tension between them , the goddess walked in. She was escorted by seven angelic figures.
Six had a halo with four wings on them while the last one had six wings on his halo. They all blonde hair and were dressed in white ropes, with a white cloth covering their faces.
The goddess took her sat at the top of the table and the angels stood behind her. The goddess glanced at everyone at the table.
She spoke," sorry to call you all on such short notice.....but we have a pressing matter at hand."
Bjorn leaned back on his chair and crossed his arms. He barely hid the fury that steamed for attention on his face.
Thedues, the lightning hero, shot Bjorn a nasty glare. He then turned and faced the goddess.
"And what would that be your majesty?" Thedues asked.
The goddess leaned back onto her chair and smiled at Bjorn. Bjorn gritted his teeth.
"That would be finding and capturing Shin'en the traitor and that witch of a demon General," she responded gritting her teeth in fury.
"Good luck with that," Bjorn said as he leaned back more on his chair and placed his legs on the table.
Everyone in the room looked at Bjorn with a confused expression.
The goddess raised an eyebrow," and that means?"
"Not to throw any shade to those of you who can fight," he paused and looked at Kai,"but the last time we fought the General we lost,"
Kai snared at Bjorn," WE LOST muscle brain that means you too."
Bjorn raised an eyebrow," oh I'm sorry, did you manage to decapitate her fourteen times while wearing armor that weighs a ton and swinging a great sword that weights twice as more!"
Kai leaned back into his chair , cursing under his breath. Bjorn turned to the others.
"Let's not forget that Shin also beat the demon king alone and can take the goddesses strongest attacks with minimal damage," he continued.
Silence befell the room. The heroes shifted ucormfortable. The goddess glanced at Bjorn, her face contorting with rage.
Bjorn smiled as he got up.
"And were do you think you're going?" Kai asked, lunging onto the table and staring and Bjorn, mere inches away from his face.
Kai's body emitted flames. Thedues got up from his seat and went to Bjorn. He stood and stared at him.
"So what, you think we can't handle them?" Thedues asked, rage boiling in him.
Bjorn chuckled to himself," are you two really tired of living?"
Thedues shifted uneasily, Kai backed off a bit but then stopped. He raised his fist and launched a punch at Bjorn.
Just as the fist was about to land, one of the angels intercepted it and threw Kai back into his chair.
"Now now children, let's not use violence," the angel said in a bitter sweet angelic voice.
Bjorn stared at the angel who then stared back at him.
"Now, sir. Would kindly take your seat," the angel demanded.
"No", Bjorn responded, the smile on his face gone, replaced by a frown.
"That wasn't a request," the angel said with disdain lingering in her words.
Both the angel and Bjorn both released bloodlust mana that clashed ferociously with each other.
They both readied themselves.
"Enough!" The goddess pounded the table.
The angel calmed itself then went and stood behind the goddess. Bjorn stood there motionless.
He looked at the goddess ,"close call, angel."
Bjorn walked past them without batting an eye and left. The goddess sighed.
"Everyone can go and rest, I'll deal with Shin and that witch," the goddess said rubbing the sides of her head.
The heroes stood up and bowed then left. The goddess remained with her angel.
"Lance, give me a concrete plan in two weeks," she said.
The angel with six wings bowed in agreement then left with the other six angels , leaving the goddess all by herself , enraged.
