Lord Shadow

Chapter 1839: Out of Prediction



In that moment, Horus who was opening his eyes, is blinded temporarily. And as he close his eyes, the ring of fire weakens and some of the arrows flew past right though it

ARGH! Horus screams as some of the arrows pierce his green skin.

His eyes is blinded and his body is pierced by the arrow.

As for the Sun that rises, it is like a second dawn appears in Olympus.

But Horus did not yet die.

An enemy that have lived for this long would not easily be toppled.

And right now, Apollo has the chance

And Apollo will not squander the opportunity he has right now.

He throws the bow away

The bow itself did not fall into the mortal world instead it turns into a streak of light.

This streak of light merged with the Sun behind him

Apollo then made a grasping motion, and something appears from the tear of space A lyre.

And Apollo sits on a cloud and begins playing this lyre.

A celestial melody begins reverberating through the heavens.

It is a sound of harmony and didn't suit the current war situation. Heaven and Earth are in chaos, the world is bleeding and the heaven are crumbling

A song that fits this scenery would be a war drum by Ares, the sound of the shield of Athena banging on the sword but not the harmonious song of Apollo.

But this melody resonates with the stars and planets all around the Olympian Galaxy.

What most beings doesn't know is that the Olympians Galaxy did not last as long as they did without having some kind of protection.

The stars and planets around Olympus main planet is not just there for decoration.

At times, they are resources base. But at times like this, they are like a weapon. Apollo song awakens these planets.

Their energy gathers and channel itself to Olympus. Apollo is singing the Song of Rejuvenation. And all the gods of Olympus that is fighting right now benefited from this.

And Horus which is still blind and still bleeding is also now affected by this melody and began to disorient him

The music fills the airs with echoes, with alluring melody bringing a person into dreams. "ENOUGH!" Horus shouted and his shout break the sound of the melody. The lyre in Apollo hand breaks into a hundred pieces and explodes.

Apollo was pushed three steps backward on the sky. There is a wound on his chest but that wound quickly healed itself

Apollo narrows his eyes

"I know it would not be easy. I just never thought it would be this hard"

even though the earlier battle might seem like Apollo had the advantage, but Apollo himself knows that Horus is just warming up.

The reason why Apollo go all out in the first few strike is because unlike Horus, Apollo is more like a cultural god than a war god.

Horus on the other hand is quite different

He has that aspect of a King, of a warrior, of a schemer, and of cultural and martial to him.

In fighting, Horus might not be able to fight Ares but for him to pit his technique in battle with Horus is clearly like Horus trying to pit his battle technique with Ares

There is a difference in quality

Horus one shout breaks the celestial melody and exploded his own lyre. The melody still lingers and in some parts of Olympus it could still be heardNôv(el)B\\jnn

It is like the light from a star. Could be seen a million miles away even though the star has been dead for millions of year

This alone shows how much power that Horus could command.

Horus then spread out his wings. The sound of his wings opened, causes a sonic boom that dissipates the clouds around him

The moment Horus spread out his wings, his body radiated a golden light that cut through Apollo white light.

At the same time, Horus vision returned, his wound closes itself.

He make a grasping motion and a tear in space opens up. And something flew out from the

tear in space.

It is a spear.

Shining and flaming.

Horus did not speak much.

The killing intent and the battle desire in his eyes is enough to know what he would do right

now

No more talk. No more tricks.

Only attack!

He kicks the air and in just a second Horus appears before Apollo. The spear was thrusted forward and Apollo swiftly dodges it.

And Apollo once again summons his bows and begins shooting tens of thousands of Sun Arrows at Horus.

The entire sky is full of arrows.

But to the eyes of the mortal below in the mortal realm, they look at the sky and see tens of thousands of meteor streaking over the skyscape.

Horus is swift, his vision is remarkable and in his falcon forms, he dives through the clouds and soars in the air with unmatched speed

He is attacking, weaving through Apollo arrows with agility.

And if that is not enough, his wings create sharp gust that deflect all the arrows, striking up clouds and bringing storms to the celestial and mortal realm.

In the celestial realm these storms affect the fighting of the gods. In the mortal realm, it decimate mortals cities one after the other.

Each of the cities that is attacked by this strum was shredded into pieces like they were put

into a sharp blender.

Mortal beings are powerless against these storms

Tall cities that would be the pride of any nations crumbled in a few second and dissipated into nothingness by the power of the divine.

Every few second, Apollo would get caught up in this harrowing wind and there was a few times where he lost his balance and had to do some emergency maneuvers in the sky.

It is not an easy feat to dodge Horus attack

And with the spear in his hand, he could strike from unexpected angles

And even if Apollo could dodge the spear, there is still Horus Eye.

That eye of Horus has always been mystical.

Even more so when it is taken by Set.

Like Odin.

Like some other gods.

Sacrifice is the most sacred and most powerful magic of all.

Given willingly.

Given with purpose.

And so, a new eye is given.

And this eye of his is also attacking

Swish!

Swish!

Apollo dodges not only the spear but the deadly beam of concentrated energy coming out

from Horus eyes

It cut through the clouds and create tear in space.

A blazing path in the sky is created, a trial of burning trail. A

flame that floats in the sky, following this trail, like an inextinguishable fire

And when Apollo dodges the spear, the deadly beam of concentrated energy, there is still the

feathers

Horus is not a one trick pony. He has many things that he could do.

And even though he is restricted in Olympus, he still have some powers that Apollo could not

really counter effectively.

Now Horus sir releasing a burst of feathers.

Each one of this feather is a razor-sharp projectiles

And it is spinning towards him like some kind of whirling blades

Shining with a golden colour, it splits the sky with streaks of silver and blue disrupting

everything

From the Sunlight, to the arrows, to the melody.

Apollo whole attack went up in smokes.

And he is now mostly defending himself.

The more he sees Horus become more and more unrestrained in the Olympian world, the

more he frowned and the more anxious he became

"Zeus is failing"

That is Apollo thought.

The weakness of Olympus laws to rule over the invaders must have something to do with

Zeus.

Zeus is tied with Olympus.

Not all divine civilization did this.

Odin did not do this.

And Jade Empire have a different kind of way of ensuring their civilization

But Olympus, tied its fate and powers to Zeus.

It gives Zeus almost unlimited power.

The only places in the Olympian world where Zeus did not have full control would be the Sea

belonging to Poseidon and the realm of the dead which belong to the oldest of the Olympian,

Hades

But conversely, if Zeus is weakened, the laws of Olympus would also be weakened. Usually, if there is a war, Zeus could go into a purification ritual to cut some of these reliance

on him

He would go to the Temple of the Three Fates in Belthana and cut the thread before reassembling it back after the war

But Qayali attack without any warning and no one expected it.

Not the Oracles.

Not him, Apollo, the inspiration of the Oracles. It was almost like.....that wasn't supposed to

happen

Since it wasn't supposed to happen, Apollo could not predicted it.

And as such Qayali fights and then Ra sees it.

Sees this opportunity that he never had before. Zeus attached to the fate and destiny of

Olympus.

Weakening Zeus weaken the Law that restrict all invaders.

So, Ra weaken Zeus and strengthen his allies

Thus, the Sun Parade was assembled and Ra attacks. Apollo could understand now why Ra

would risk the Alliance to break.

Because there is probably no other chance like this

This is the time to weaken Olympus.
