The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

[Realm of the Dead] 

"Things are changing pretty fast… I wonder how the Destroyer is connected to this woman, Hela" Hades mused as he rapped his skeletal fingers on the armrests of his throne. Hades's teeth clattered for a moment.

Hades is the God of the Realm of the Dead. He despises beings of other mythologies, especially Devils and Fallen Angels, believing that they are unnecessary beings, calling them bats and crows. Hades is one of the Trinity Gods of Olympus. He has been ruling the Realm of the Dead since ancient times. 

"Does it really matter? I understand that she has a certain type of authority over the dead but she isn't the one who we should be worried about" Nyx pointed out and the other members sitting around seemed to nod in agreement. 

Nyx is the Primordial Goddess of the Night and the younger sister of Erebus in Greek mythology and one of the creators of Thanatos, Hypnos, and Oneiroi. Nyx is a cheerful, yet sadistic person who enjoys seeing others in pain and suffering.

Nyx is a beautiful young woman with the cute face of a child that has long black hair and with pointy ears. She wears a cute frilly dress called Godly Virgin Killer Clothes that has a corset jumper skirt. Her body also gives out a tremendous dark aura.

"Agreed. During the Kuoh Massacre, the wielder of Boosted Gear, Issei Hyoudou was killed. Now, once again we would need to identify the one who was born with that damned Longinus" Tartarus said and everyone except Hades hummed in agreement.

Tartarus is a Primordial God of Abyss in Greek mythology. Tartarus is a hundred-meter sphere with many eyes and tentacles. His body gives out an unbelievable aura and his presence also gives out a dark mist.

"I think we need to do something really drastic to gain some power" Hades mused and everyone on the table was immediately interested. 

"What do you have in mind?" Erebus questioned curiously. He is the Primordial God of Darkness and the older brother of Nyx in Greek mythology and one of the creators of Thanatos, Hypnos, and Oneiroi.

Erebus is a handsome young man appearing in his mid-twenties with black hair. He wears a black cloak and his body gives out a dark aura. Erebus is shown to be calm and collected in person and deeply cares for his sister. 

"I want to steal the master bolt" Zeus said and the other sitting around the tables froze for a moment. 

"...I don't understand how that thing fits into our plans?" Angra Mainyu asked in a cold tone. Angra Mainyu is the Evil God of Zoroastrianism in Persian mythology.

Angra Mainyu takes the form of a phantom with a jet-black body with a muscular build and glowing fire-like eyes and has horns on top of his head. His body also gives out a chaotic aura.

"It is easily one of the strongest weapons of the World. Having it in our possession would be a good deterrent in the future" Hades said in a neutral tone. Nyx clicked her tongue. 

"But that also means that he is going to come after us" Nyx huffed in an annoyed tone. 

"...No, he won't. He won't be coming after us…" Hades said and his eyes started to glow eerily… 

[Grigori, Underworld] 

"So, this is Grigori. I expected something more… noteworthy" Hela said in an unimpressed tone as she looked in front of her. 

"I hope that you weren't expecting dismembered humans decorating the buildings" Grayfia in a neutral tone. She was standing behind Hela like a dutiful maid. 

Hela grinned at the jab. "I am not gonna lie… that would have been beautiful too" Hela said and let out a defeated sigh as she noticed several figures with multiple crow wings approaching the two of them. 

"Grayfia, would you look at that? We have some company!" Hela exclaimed cheerfully and Grayfia simply rolled her eyes. She tried to stop herself but her willpower wasn't strong enough. 

"Are you going to tackle this incident diplomatically?" Grayfia questioned and Hela simply gave the woman an incredulous look. 

"My bad" Grayfia accepted her mistake with a blank look on her face and Hela simply gave the stoic woman a kind smile. 

"It hasn't been a week and you already know me so well. Now, Grayfia, even though they are important, why don't you tell me their names?" Hela spoke with a grin and Grayfia gave a small nod. 

"That man with the golden bangs is Azazel, he is the Governor General of the Fallen Angels. The man beside him who looks like he is about to give up on everything is Shemhazai, he is the Vice-Governor General of the Fallen Angels…" Grayfia said with a stoic look on her face and after hearing the second man's description, Hela started to cackle loudly. 

"Hmm… Grayfia, your description is point on. Maybe I should give him a hand and send him his merry way" Hela mused and started to rub her chin. 

"Please don't" Once again, Grayfia deadpanned and Hela started to cackle after watching Grayfia's reaction. The group of Fallen Angels finally arrived in front of Hela and Grayfia. Slowly the whole group landed in front of the duo and retracted their wings. 

"I have expected your arrival" Azazel said and Hela simply raised her delicate brows after hearing the statement. 

"I didn't expect this. So, how are we going to do this?" Hela questioned curiously and her eyes started to glow eerily. The whole group of Fallen Angels slightly flinched after hearing the woman's over-excited tone. 

"...Can we talk like civilized people?" Azazel asked in a hopeful tone. He really wanted to avoid a conflict. He felt shivers run down his spine as soon as he laid his eyes on this woman. Azazel was one of the oldest beings of the World and his instincts were screaming at him as soon as he saw the woman. 

"Fine… let's talk" Hela said with a stiff nod of her head. Azazel and his entourage internally released a relieved sigh. Now, at least they would be able to negotiate something. 

"Good. Now, Submit or die…" Hela said with a serious look on her face. Hela looked really proud after she finished speaking. Grayfia tried… She really tried but she couldn't stop herself from palming her face. This isn't how you are supposed to talk but she shouldn't have expected anything else from Hela. 

"...Um… that is not how we are supposed to talk…" Azazel said nervously and Hela simply tilted her head in confusion. She slowly turned her head towards Grayfia for additional input. 

"You are supposed to negotiate, using peaceful means" Grayfia pointed out and Hela's head snapped towards Azazel, then she turned back to look at Grayfia. 

"Why the fuck would I do that?" Hela questioned incredulously. Grayfia wanted to groan but she had to maintain an image… her job was becoming harder by each day. 

"That is what is meant when he said that he wanted to talk like civilized people" Grayfia pointed out and Hela nodded her head in understanding. Then Hela slowly turned towards Azazel and his group who were looking towards Hela nervously. 

"Well, that is the best offer I could give your Race" Hela said with a shrug and Grayfia's lips thinned but there wasn't anything she could do to change this insane woman's mind. 

"So that is what you are going to offer us?" Baraqiel questioned defensively and once again, Hela shrugged.

"That is the best offer I can think of right now…" Hela said in a tone like it was a matter of fact. 

"...What is going to happen to us if we decide to submit?" Azazel questioned, surprising his whole group. 

"Nothing major… I will remove some volatile elements and your Race will follow whatever decision I make" Hela said and Azazel nodded his head in understanding. 

"Azazel, don't tell me you are considering submission" Baraqiel said and Azazel could only smile with a sad look on his face. 

"What am I supposed to do? Our Race is on the verge of Extinction. We can't afford a fight right now and it won't be a fight if we don't submit in front of her… she could crush us like insects" Azazel said with an apologetic tone. Shemhazai, along with Penemue, Tamiel, Sahariel nodded their heads. Only Baraqiel looked displeased with the decision. 

"Ho… you are quite intelligent and here I thought that I would have to kill a lot of Fallen Angels to get my point across… you don't have a Fallen Angels Council, do you?" Hela spoke with an excited grin on her face. 

"No, they don't have a Council" Grayfia decided to pitch in and Hela nodded her head with a disappointed look on her face. 

"Can I request something?" Azazel questioned and Hela simply quirked her brows. Azazel considered that to be a green light so he began to speak. 

"I am currently researching a method to resurrect Humans into Fallen Angels, if I succeed then we will be able to increase our numbers… Can I continue the research?" Azazel requested in a respectful tone. Grayfia wasn't surprised by this. The Fallen Angels were the first ones to withdraw from the Great War. 

"Sure… to be honest, I don't care what you plan to do with humans" Hela said in a dismissive tone. Even though she wasn't happy as she didn't get to kill anyone, but she was quite glad that she got a new Race under her rule…
