《(Dropped)The God Of Apocalypse》Chapter 9 Settling in

*SEMI EDITED*
Several day's later
Sitting behind my desk I looked over my new room, It was moderately luxurious. Nothing too fancy but still you could see it was a rich persons room. Sky was behind me standing like a vigilant bodyguard like she usually tends to be nowadays. I had given her the role of familia captain and she had actually burst out in tears. Making me very distraught as I have never been good at the emotional spectrum of life. Sighing I thought back at what lead me here.
After the day of the Denatus Sky told me her plan. I would use my spell (CREATE LIFE) to create our familia members. We may take in outsiders later on but for now we are going to play it safe. Sky told me to create 3 teams and some logistic personnel. One first tier team, a high tier team, and lastly a mid tier team. We decided we would only use races that exists here as taking races that should not exist seemed like a bad idea. I had managed to get to know how a falna works after a long and tortuous conversation with Ganesha.
The first tier team was comprised of, 3 Frontliners, one being a tank and the others being damage dealers. A healer, and the two last being a wildcard and Sky a ranged combatant. Races and levels respectively being,
Human Level 6 Male Tank, Name Gregory Berstien.
Demi Human (Cat) Level 5 Male Damage Dealer, Name Sato Krewill.
Demi Human (Wolf) Level 6 Male Damage Dealer, Nickname "Speedster, Speedy." Name Fenrir Bolt.
Elf (Forest elf) Level 5 Female Healer, Nickname "Worrywart" Name Mila Forestshade.
Human Level 6 Female Wildcard, Name Violet Ember.
Elf (Sky elf?) Level 6 Female Ranged, Name Sky Walker.
The high tier team being around level 4-5 with the same setup. While the Mid tier team has a more wish washy setup.
Since I created them they had all registered at the guild. I did so as well before them but I registered the familia itself. As we couldn't have a familia and live in a inn we bought a house after I went in to the dungeon real quick for some easy cash. As the days went by we managed to get a manor of which I am currently residing in with all the others.

My familia was quickly becoming a hot gossiping topic. Rumors were going around that some members had managed to get to the 48 floor on their first expedition. What was more suprising for the outside world was the equipment they were using. It was all first class and the stuff looked almost otherwordly for the citizens of Orario. Also a rumour about scorch marks in floor 37 managed to get to my ears. Huh I wonder who did that.
Some gods because of our recent popularity were growing interested in the equipment and tried to become allies or partners with us. I entertained talks with a couple of them however no conclusive decision was made with any of the Familias. Reasons being that they had nothing to offer which interested me. Some came without even an offer and just wanted the equipment for free. I swiftly declined any such propositions. One familia was very interested and open to any suggestions on cooperation between our two familias. That being the Hephaestus familia.
My economy adviser told me there were two reasons as to why this may be.
One they wanted to study and get equipment as any other familia.
Two Hephaestus had become infatuated with me and wanted to get closer to me. I quickly denied the last accusation. I mean she can't be right she's only a economical advisor. She shouldn't know anything about emotional stuff, Right? And while I did feel like Hephaestus gaze was a bit strange last meeting perhaps it is because she only has one eye. Yeah, that's the reason. I nodded along while thinking that making Sky look at me judgmentally. She can't know what I am thinking of right? Well shite. Yeah she's definitely in love or has taken an interest in me. Darn Sky! Let me keep being delusional!
I don't want to end up as Mike... Well my trauma regarding Mike had subsided for the most part however I still had a hard time speaking with women of which was not my creations. My creations all had developed a distinct personality over the last few days. That really brought a smile to my beak. It's like seeing your child growing up. I kinda understood the other gods feeling and attachment to their children. They mourned when they passed away and such. However I never needed to mourn for my childrens death as I could just resurrect them.

One point for the Pestys familia!
While diplomacy had been going well for the most part the Loki familia refused to deal with me. Probably because of my comment back at the Denatus. The Freya familia didn't respond to any messages sent to them about a potential meeting. The Freya familia had been unusually quiet not making any expeditions to the dungeon. I shrugged not my problem! It was sadly my problem but I didn't know it back then.
My mid tier and high tier members were currently in the dungeon doing their routinely expedition. While my first tier was currently in the manor. I had bought a couple of board games and a pool table so they were probably enjoying those right now. I had put up rankings for them in regards to most wins in pool. That had made them very enthusiastic. The only problem was that so far they had destroyed 9 pool cue sticks. So I had an extra twenty in the storage.
Suddenly I heard someones rapid footsteps nearing my door. The person slamming it open wide shouted in glee the moment they opened.
"IT'S A FESTIVAL TOMORROW!" Shouted a racoon eared girl.
This feisty girl was our mascot, because apparently we needed one according to Speedy. Petite, lively, bright, and an overall happy girl that had an infectious smile while being on the lower end on the IQ scale. I didn't make her slow in the head but the spell decided she would be that with those characteristics.
I smiled at her which couldn't be seen but I digress it isn't important right now. Sky frowned and became the ice cold and calculative person she was when she wasn't alone with me.
"Emma, you can't barge in to our gods room like that. What would other people say if they saw one of Pestys members acting like that! You would make a fool out of yourself and make Pesty look bad!" Sky said in a cold tone
Emma visibly paled and bowed several times saying sorry, her apologies actually felt like she meant them. Probably work of the absolute loyalty tag.
"Don't worry Emma, I'm not mad just keep that in mind next time. However you said something about a festival?" I said
"YEAH! I-I mean yeah. Tomorrow there is going to be a festival with all kinds of fun things!"
"And who is the organizer of the festival" I said while hoping my premonition was wrong.
"GANESH!"
A groan came out simultaneously from me and Sky.
"Do I have to go?" I looked towards Sky
"It would be beneficial for the familia if you did."
A sigh came out from my beak. "Well I suppose I need to do it for the Familia. Emma you and me can stick together during the event if you want." I said tenderly
"YAY, A date!" Said Emma happily
"Wait, no! Sky I don't think she knows what that means, tell her!" I looked towards Sky and saw a Sadistic smirk etched on her face.
I may be strong enough to lay waste to this world but seriously, what am I supposed do in such a situation? I mean just blowing up stuff rarely ever fixes anything and only leads to more problems.
I sighed once again and prepared myself mentally to whatever tomorrow may bring.
Perhaps I should take a vacation from this place after the festival? Check out one of the other portals perhaps? Well we will see later on I guess.

8 179Modern Magic
A Modern Magician BookI looked up at the crooked holo sign while the perfectly bred woman read from a paper, a plastic smile glued to her face.'Welcome to The City,' she said in a fake voice. 'Once formerly known as New York, The City is a place filled with ancient and modern wonders. Remember, if you see any magicians please report to the nearest police station or Black Hand officer.'I smiled at the sign and then raised a single finger. No, not the middle one. A blue misty light spun from my finger and into the holo device. The message quickly changed from the fake woman to one of my own.'Welcome to The City,' the woman read, her hair now dyed a fuchsia. Her eyelids were a dark blue and her bottom lip and right eyebrow were pierced. 'A special message from Hecate, queen of magic.' The woman looked up at me, a smirk playing on her lips. 'Welcome to my city.'
