Chapter 68: Ra and Chronos
One mistake would have killed them all.
There were two men who entered the room. One was a very young-looking man with white hair and red eyes, maybe 1.90 metres tall and incredibly handsome.
The other, like the sun, had golden hair and golden eyes, was almost the same height as the person next to him and was even more handsome than the person next to him.
These people were Chronos and Ra.
Chronos was not a creator, unlike Ra. He was the embodiment of time, and like the other titans, they were high-ranking beings. He was a being that could not be stopped in any way, he was time itself.
Ra, on the other hand, was a personality sitting in the upper echelon of even the creators, he was a guardian, a guardian of the Chaos-Borns, and he had come here at the request of Erebus.
This was the reason why Moros, Nemesis and Apate suddenly left the room and then the place. Ra had asked them to leave because he was the one who would punish them all at that moment.
"I know exactly what you did, Sopdu, and I am ashamed that you could so easily betray the purpose of your creation." Ra suddenly said, and without even listening to what was to be said after that, every god and goddess in the room fell to the floor.
The lifeless bodies of each of them were in the centre. There was neither a sword blow nor any such attack, Ra only uttered a few words and each of them died.
Then Ra turned to Chronos and said, "Turn back their time."
After these words, Chronos flexed his fingers, turned his palm to the side of the dead bodies and started to rotate his hand counterclockwise.
One by one, each dead body seemed to be returned to its owner.
The gods and goddesses were shedding tears and marvelling at how much pain they had experienced in just 15 seconds.
Ra stood still and then a knife appeared in his hand. As soon as he threw the knife, the heads of all the gods and goddesses in the room began to be pierced one by one, revealing a mark on each body large enough to kill them.
"Again," Ra said, and each of them came to life again.
This time their bodies were riddled with holes.
"Again," said Ra.
This time hundreds of snakes had invaded the room and bitten each of them to death in every possible place.
"Again," said Ra.
This time lava poured over each and every one of them.
"Again," said Ra, but this time Sopdu's raised voice was suddenly heard.
"PLEASE OH CREATOR HAVE MERCY! "
When Sopdu uttered these words, Ra approached him and said, "What about you? Did you have mercy when you did such an evil deed to an unfortunate child who was not at fault and whose life was miserable?"
Ra's eyes were literally like his symbol, the sun itself, looking so brightly into Sopdu's eyes that there could be no explanation for it.
"I..... did wrong, please forgive me..." Sopdu said again, but at that very moment, he saw the area around him begin to change. After only a few seconds, he appeared in front of the throne of Nyx and Erebus with all the gods and goddesses.
In just a few seconds Chronos had teleported them away.
"These are the criminals, Nyx," Chronos said suddenly and yawned, sitting down on one of the steps in front of the throne.
Nyx smiled and then said, "Thank you, Ra, for coming to my aid as always."
When Ra heard these words, he smiled and then said, "It was my fault that this happened, I should have trained them better, forgive me sister." and stepped aside.
Sopdu, as if he could not believe what he was hearing, prostrated himself again and shouted:
"PLEASE HAVE MERCY ON US OH DEAR ONE AND ONLY DAUGHTER OF THE GREAT CHAOS!"
Hearing these words, Nyx made a gesture with her hand and Sopdu's lifeless body, which died instantly, flew to the huge doors of the hall and fell to the floor like a fly.
After Chronos exhaled tiredly, he looked at Nyx as if he was frustrated, and Nyx, who noticed this, averted her eyes and said, "You cried a lot, Chronos, just help me." Nyx was acting like he was talking to a family member.
With that, Sopdu was reanimated and stood there, unable to say anything, and then Nyx seemed to have an idea, she could do something by asking James a question instead of taking it out on him like that.
"All right, I can forgive you, but on one condition," Nyx said suddenly, hearing this Nemesis and the others started to look at Nyx like she was crazy, but then each of them had to hold themselves back from laughing at what they had just heard.
"Please tell me, my lady!" said Sopdu and Nyx smiled as she heard this:
"I'll ask James, and if he tells me to forgive you, we'll pretend nothing happened. You will still be punished for stealing from one of the old churches."
Hearing these words, Sopdu suddenly prostrated himself and banged his head repeatedly on the floor, shouting "THANK YOU, MY LADY!" over and over again.
However, the fact that James was awake seemed to work in Nyx's favour, as James had already managed to find Ariel. This time he made the message window big enough for everyone to see and spoke:
"James, we've found the perpetrators who killed you, they're begging for your mercy, what do you want us to do?"

[James, we have found the perpetrators who killed you, they are begging for your mercy, what do you want us to do?]
James smiled as he saw the window that had suddenly appeared in front of him and his face turned rather grim, then he shook his head and simply said:
"Hell no! Do they really expect me to forgive them? What do they think this is a game?"
