《(Dropped)The God Of Apocalypse》Chapter 8 Denatus

*SEMI EDITED*
THE DAY OF THE DENATUS
I was talking with Sky on how we were supposed to create the Familia. I could use the spell (CREATE LIFE) to add members for it. We talked a bit and after awhile she asked if she could undertake the task. I told her yes, I also told her if she needed resources just ask since I will provide.
After that was done I went downstairs and met Anya Fromel, one of the two cat eared waitresses.
"Good day Anya, anything new happening?" I said in a slightly cheery tone
"Hmm, nope nya! No real work at these hours nya."
"Ah, well that's true I suppose."
"Yup nya! Hey I saw a blue haired elf go upstairs with a member of the Ganesha familia yesterday nya. Who's she nya?" She asked in a inquisitive tone.
"Oh, her? Well she's a-"
Before I could answer her sky butted in.
"I'm a friend of his."
"Oh, Sky. This is Anya, Anya meet Sky."
"Hi nya! Are you his girlfriend nya?"
I recoiled and Sky blushed. I noted that I did not like that blush! You are supposed to be calm and collected not blushing like a school girl Sky! That's not how I made you!
"E-er... Cough N-no just acquaintances."
Timeout Sky! No stuttering!
Anya smirked
"Oh really nya? Really, really nya? That blush tells me otherwise nya~" she giggled
"N-no"
Before Anya could tease Sky more I spoke up.
"Well while watching you tease Sky is quite fun Anya we have an appointment with the Ganseha familia."
Anya pouted but when she saw I wasn't going to back down she answered
"Alright~ Good luck nya!"
Me and Sky made our way towards the door but I suddenly remebered something. Stopping in my tracks I did a one eighty and looked at Anya.
"Yes nya?"
"Why do you say nya at the end of every sentence?"
"I'm proud of my heritage nya!" She declared jovially
"I see, that makes sense."
It does not make a single sense I muttered under my breath as me and Sky left the hostess.
Outside the weather was really good. Blue sky with fluffy white clouds.
I looked at Sky, her bow was easily seen hanging on her shoulder.
I had recently given Sky a bow called, (BOW OF EVERLASTING WINTER) It was a bow that had ice attributed magic inside of it. Also in a three meter radius you could feel the temperature drop making several pass by shivering. Sky got a lot of looks because of it. Well to be honest she would get them even if she didn't have the longbow. She was all blue in a sea of brown and boring colours.
I went into a back alley and changed back to my original form. After I returned to the street I got as many looks as Sky did. Many seemed scared at my appearance but since I didn't do anything in particular many lost interest after a bit.
A pro from this form was that I didn't need to wade through the crowd. That left me and Sky with plenty of place to walk in. As we walked I could clearly hear the murmuring.
"Who's that? He looks scary."
"Iv'e never seen a blue Elf before, perhaps they are called ice elfs?"
"That's not the important part mate look at her! She's a beaut! Think I got a chance?"
"Wouldn't try if I were you that guy with the beak looks like a god. You don't want to get on their bad sides mate."

"Really he's a god? Don't they all look human?"
"Dunno perhaps. Maybe he's the first looking like this?"
"Aww man but that bow though, got shivers just being near it! It must be a first class bow if anything!"
"Yeah I think so too."
I shaked my head disapprovingly. Guys only want looks, it's the inside that matters. The pretty girls are always crazy. Aww shucks they are probably going to end up as poor Mikey. Good luck boys, you'll need it.
As we neared the Ganesha familias headquarters I saw a statue that left me mildly annoyed. The statue was of course a statue of Ganseha, no problem right? Well you're wrong. The statue was not at the left and neither the right as well. It was in the middle and it was huge. It was made out of gold I believe and had two big rubies for eyes. He was in the elephant form. But none of that was the problem. The problem was the dong hanging out from the statue, and to enter you needed to go under that dong. I mean, what? That's a no go. You don't do that mate.
Reluctantly I passed under the statue, glancing at Sky she had a disapproving frown on her face. Seemed like a I had some support regarding the statue atleast. We walked a bit and finally came across a Ganesha familia member. Telling the guy who we were he told us to wait.
After a couple of minutes of waiting, a blue haired girl came and introduced herself.
"Hello, my names Shakti Varma, I am the captain of the Ganesha Familia. You may call me Shakti. You should be Pestilence if I am correct? Ganesha sadly forgot that he had promised an audience with you. I hope you do not take it as an insult as he is rather forgetful. He means no harm however."
"Ah, none taken. Please do call me Pesty as Pestilence is quite long."
I glanced quickly towards Sky and my suspicions were correct. She was fuming at the fact Ganesha forgot after she went through all that trouble to get me an audience. Don't worry Sky! I appreciate the gesture. I gestured with my hand towards Sky telling her to calm down. She did, but she still seemed downcast. Cute! Wait, no! No women! Women are bad!
"Your familia member will stay here under the audience if that's okay?"
"It is. Well then lead the way."
She smiled at me and nodded. She started walking and I followed her
Right I need to get into the mood. A favourable impression on people in power is always a good thing. And since I am going to enter into this Familia business I need connections and allies.
She lead me through the expansive hallways, everything screaming luxury and class. Snobby guy perhaps? Paintings and the like being common hanging on every wall. After a bit we came to two giant golden doors. She turned to me and said
"Well, I should warn you Ganesha can be a bit strange to people that don't know him. Do please keep that in mind."
"Sure I think."
"Well then let's start" She knocked on the door and a booming voice said "I AM GANESHA!"
Don't you introduce yourself when you can see the person you are talking too instead of through a door? Perhaps this is what she meant with being strange to new people. Well it's no biggie really Iv'e been through worse.
Thinking back on this in the future I realised once again what a fool I truly am.

The giant golden doors opened and me and Shakti entered. Once again we were greeted with the booming voice once again.
"I AM GANESHA" You don't say! I could've sworn you were called something else...
"Lord Ganesh this is the god you promised an audience with yesterday."
"I AM GANESHA" Ganesh responded with. Is he able to speak other words than I am Ganesha I wonder? Deciding that this was my queue to speak I introduced myself.
"Good day Ganesh, my names Pestilence but you may call me Pesty if you find that easier."
His response was, for once actually more words than his name.
"Pestilence? I don't like being sick! You can't party while being sick! For I am Ganesha!"
"Right, don't worry about becoming sick as I can't use my powers down here in the mortal realm."
"OH! So we can party then! Shakti grab a bottle of wine and let's party! I AM GANESHA!"
Yeah the lads insane that's for sure. Shakti responded to his request.
"While that would be very fun lord Ganesh I believe we need to save the beverages for the Denatus instead of using them now. Also I believe you should listen to Pestys request."
"YES! The big party, I will have a speech telling them all about my humble abode, FOR I AM GANESHA!"
Humble my ass! I needed to go under your crotch to get here! Quelling my anger I spoke up.
"Ah, I do look forward to your party Ganesh! But since I am new here I was wondering if you could introduce me after your speech. It would be like a suprise."
"I like suprises! Who are we suprising?"
"The other gods, Ganesh." I said slightly understanding where this is going.
"Oh cool! So who are you?"
Oh boy, this is going to take awhile isn't it... Better strap in then...
-----------------------------------------
Utter torture, that's my conclusion after speaking to I AM GANESHA. Shakti was giving me a pitying look through the whole thing as well! Did she try to help? No! After I believe 60 minutes of the bullshit I finally managed to get it into his little head that he was going to introduce me after he was done with his speech. Sadly I am still not sure if he actually understood!
Shakti was guiding me back to the lobby. When we entered the lobby Sky quickly went towards us.
"Did it go well?" She asked in an anxious tone.
"I don't know I tuned out a bit after 20 minutes of the torture."
Sky immediately was ready to attack Shakti, I quickly spoke up to clear the misunderstanding.
"Sky, just a figure of speech. Don't worry."
"Oh, okay. So are we returning to th-"
"Yes we are returning to my place." Glaring lightly at her since she almost said where we resided. I don't want people to know that Kylan and I is the same person.
She shrunk under my gaze, I nodded contently since she seemed to get it.
Now, I want to get out of here as soon as possible before I hear another I AM GANESHA. Gosh I'm going to have nightmares about that.
---------------------------------------------------
POV FREYA
I sighed. Another boring Denatus. Hestia was begging Hephaetus for a knife for her child. I do like his soul it's quite pure. Sadly another person was currently in my heart. The mysterious person that is able to block me out. Just thinking about it makes me horny. However I could not do such obscene acts among all the other gods. Looking around I saw that Ganesh was still going on about his "Humble" abode. Frankly by now everyone has tuned out from his speech. I thought back at the emergency Denatus not so long ago. After some foolish god used his or hers arcana in the dungeon everyone tried to figure who did it. In the end the Denatus just ended with a lot of finger pointing.
Honestly all this time something had been wrong, I felt something familiar but couldn't quite place it. It was like I tried to reach out for it but it went through my grasp when I finally catched it.
It seemed like Ganesh was finally done with his speech. I looked towards Ganesh once again.
------------------------------------
POV PESTY
Torture! 20 Minutes of Ganeshs torture! The fact that I couldn't ignore him as I might miss my introduction made me quite pissed. However it seemed like he went quiet now.
"MY FREINDS! A FRIEND OF MINE HAS COME DOWN FROM TENKAI TO PARTAKE IN OUR GAME! I SHALL INTRODUCE HIM AS I AM GANESHA! YOU MAY COME FORTH MY FRIEND!
Finally... Right let's do this!
Going through the doors most of the hall was silent. Looking over the mass for awhile I saw Hephaestus, I nodded towards her and she nodded back.
"MY FRIEND YOU MAY INTRODUCE YOURSELF FOR I AM GANESHA!"
Thanks Ganesh, while you are annoying you can atleast gather attention if you want. Time to introduce myself.
"Good day my fellow gods! I am indeed one of many gods that has come down to Genkai after many years of seeing you live down here. I finally decided that I shall join you as well. I hope we can all get along. My name is Pestilence however you may call me Pesty if you'd like. Let's get along!"
"I AM GANESHA" Concluded Ganesha after my speech. Some gods clapped while some lost interest and kept going with their conversations. Making my way down I exchanged pleasantries with the many gods. Gathering connections. Some asked me why I didn't come in a human form. I told them I am not comfortable in a human form. Some were fine with it, while others assured me that it felt no different than their main form after getting used to it.
After walking around I spotted Hephaestus, Loki and a little girl with two black pigtails and large boobs that did not contrast well to her young image. I approached them.
-------------------------------
POV FREYA
After the new god came in I nearly fainted. I felt it. The energy that was keeping me out. I finally understood what was bothering me. I was in the eye of the storm of all that energy. All coming out from that god. I knew, I knew that he was using his Arcana to hide himself. I looked towards him and I nearly fell down head first on the floor. I needed to get out of here! I fell in love with a god once again! I know I am not allowed to do so! Last time... Last time... It... I need to get out! Slinking away towards the exit I made my way out to the streets of Orario.
--------------------------------------
HESTIA POV
I was bickering with Loki, we called each other names. While we did so the so called bird guy came towards us. Looking over him his robe was incredibly dark almost like the abyss itself. His beak or mask or what it now were was glistening white like the moon. His voice eerily smooth, like a voice you could listen to forever and slowly drown in it. It was scary. He introduced himself in a friendly tone as "Pesty"
While he did so I looked towards Loki then towards myself and finally the bird guy. A genius idea came to mind. interrupting him I asked him a question.
"Mr Bird do you like big breasts, or small breasts, or just completely flat like Loki!"
------------------------------------------------------
POV PESTY
Is all gods insane? Yes, yes they are. The little kid godess called Hestia from the greek pantheon was asking me a ridiculous question about breasts! Sighing I decided I would tell them truthfully.
"Well to be honest I don't like women, they are incredibly scary most of the time, however if I was forced to choose I would choose Medium breasts. Reason being that too big and it's annoying, to small and you can barely feel them. And flat doesn't count as breasts anyway-" That's how far I came before I felt two very strong glares coming from Hestia and Loki, while Hephaestus seemed to be blushing. Oh, it seemed I accidentally picked Hesephatus without knowing it. Yeah she does have breasts that are in my strike zone. I locked eyes with her and she looked away, suddenly very interested in her shoes. Suddenly a ice cold voice came from Loki.
"Hey Avian you said women are scary right? Do you really know how scary we can be hmm?"
I locked eyes with her and saw Mike in them. I ran.
-----------------------------------
HESTIA POV
The nerve on the bird! He locked eyes with Loki and for once I actually was on her side! This guy needed to die on the spot! After Loki had said her piece he did an about face and ran. Loki was quick on the pursuit. I was just going to follow them as I remebered what I came here for. My beautiful Bell-kuns knife! I looked towards Hesephatus and I saw her blushing while muttering
"I just wanted to ask him about the sword..."
Darn it bird man! You are definitely a dead bird walking... Or flying I guess.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
FREYA POV
Heavy breathing could be heard in a back alley in Orario
Hehehehehe... I can't love a god again! Last time it... no!.. I... I... "I don't care" I said weakily. It is already to late. Iv'e already fallen in love with a god... for a second time... I don't care I said louder, the words echoing in the night. I... Yes! I don't care! Whatever happens I don't care! "I DON'T CARE!" I screamed into the night. Finally calming down a obsessive smile came to my face while I giggled uncontrollably. I repeatedly uttered "Your mine, only mine. Only I love you. I don't care if the world burns! Let it! If we can be together I don't care" And I had a method to get him into my grasp. I know he is using arcana... I will be able to use that to get him to be only mine. Together forever and ever and ever...
----------------------------
POV PESTY
I finally managed to get rid of the red head. Many gods looked our way when Loki chased me. Some having pitying looks on their face while other looked uninterested. Seems like it really wasn't a rare sight. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.
Going through the streets of Orario cold air caressed my face. Looking towards the stars I hoped against hope that perhaps things were going to get calmer now. However I knew that fate had no such things planned for me. I heard someone scream I don't care. I don't really know why but that prompted me to sneeze. Can gods get colds? I hope not. How do I sneeze anyway? I don't really have a nose hole. Freaky. I went back to the hostess to relay what happend to Sky before tucking in for the night.

Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes.

The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
