Chapter 1169: Cap 1167: Apostles Of Truth

I was inside the Dungeon in front of the Communal Temple, I didn't know why Elizabeth wanted to meet me here, but I can assume that it must have something to do with the Blood Goddess.

I entered and passed all the visitors to the Temple as well as the various Priests who live here heading straight to the main hall where the statues are enshrined, as you would expect, she was facing the statue of the Blood Goddess.

"Why do you always have to do things this way?" (I)

"Don't complain, this is for you so just come with me." (Elizabeth)

Elizabeth pulls me to my knees beside her facing the statue of our mother, at the same moment I feel the presence of the Goddess fill the surroundings.

Having already experienced something like this so many times I knew what had to be done, I close my eyes and open my Aura letting the divine presence invade my body taking my consciousness away.

When I open my eyes I'm in the same cabin in the Forest of Blood, the cabin I built together with the girls and my first real home in this life, the cabin was exactly how I remember it being.

"Why bring us here? That's assuming Elizabeth is here too." (I)

"Why do you feel comfortable in this place, I always choose the right environment for the occasion, and this time I'm receiving my children without having called for you." (Goddess Selene)

Before I knew it I was hugged from behind, I could feel exactly who it was before I even heard her voice.

We were in the main room of the cabin when Elizabeth burst through the door of the cabin, immediately getting to her knees.

"Thank you for listening to our call mother." (Elizabeth)

"Don't be so formal, I know why you came, but you know you don't have to." (Goddess Selene)

"She wanted to purify the blood that Lyra managed to refine?" (I)

"Yes, but it's not necessary, just offer the blood as an offering and I can reward you with the bloodlines referring to the enemies the blood comes from, it will be fresh and totally clean." (Goddess Selene)

"Looks like Lyra worked for nothing this time." (I)

"Not for nothing, she'll get information from the enemy with her research, but I'm glad I still have some use for that blood." (Elizabeth)

"I wish I had more time but a God's work is never done, look to my Saint and she will guide you in what to do." (Goddess Selene)

Before I knew it the world went dark and when I blinked I was back in the Common Temple, Elizabeth opening her eyes beside me.

"I didn't think she would be so generous." (Elizabeth)

Pov Selene (Goddess of Blood):

After sending my children away I went back to his prison where Akatosh was waiting for me.

"Where did you go at a time like that?" (Akatosh)

"I had something to do, some of those do more than create monsters and inspire people to seek strength." (I)

"I know that, but you're not one of those Gods, you hardly do anything since it always ends up..." (Akatosh)

"But one word and I'll have to rip your eye out to create another planet like 2 million years ago." (I)

"..." (Akatosh)

"You are very aggressive did you know that?" (Akatosh)

"Wouldn't this be caused by some form of hypnosis or some kind of brainwashing?" (Astrid)

"As everyone in this room must have seen from the information we passed on to everyone, these two techniques I mentioned are confirmed things they do, there were many who studied these things in our universe and there were those who were able to control another's will using some variation of these two methods." (Astrid) .

"That's not what they've been talking about so far, is it?" (Elizabeth)

"No, I would have noticed if it was, I've traveled through the minds of many people, monsters, and creatures, and I would have noticed at the same moment if it was something they talked about, I won't deny that I felt traces of such methods, but that's not why gathered everyone." (Caitlyn)

"The Echo of Will carried a trace of Authority." (Caitlyn)

"This can hardly be considered something new, where are you going with this?" (Elizabeth)

Fights between Authority users are rare from what my sisters have told me in the past, but even so, try fighting sometimes against people or creatures that possessed the power of Authority, my sisters must have done this thousands of times throughout their lives, I don't see how something like that can make my sister act seriously.

"The problem is not that they have someone with the power of the Authority, the bigger problem is the type of Authority." (Caitlyn)

"Multiple Authority." (Caitlyn)

"That could be a problem, a big problem." (Elizabeth)

"But it's not impossible to solve." (Natasha)

"Do you know the characteristics of your Authority?" (Elizabeth)

"I didn't have enough time, but I'm sure one of the traits involves the mind, how many other traits your Authority has and what they are is still a mystery." (Caitlyn)

"I don't understand, is having more than one Authority bad?" (I)

"Only the Gods and Their Champions have Multiple Authority, apart from them the number of people I've met in my lifetime can be counted on the fingers of one hand." (Yara)

"Just to be clear, she's older than me if you count her true body." (Elizabeth)

"I don't understand, having multiple Authorities helps with what exactly?" (Alice)

"The Authorities always interact with each other, for someone with multiple Authorities it means that their potential is multiplied due to the interconnection between the Authorities, for example, the mother." (Elizabeth)

"I will speak only 3 of your Authorities which are Blood, Life, and Death." (Elizabeth)

"Separated they are already powerful, but together they form the very existence of all creatures." (Elizabeth)

"Having multiple Authorities means you can go further than your opponents and if a Territory is used, someone of the same level will not be able to contest." (Elizabeth)

"Not to mention that the Authority you have says a lot about how you fight, having multiple Authorities is fighting as a group rather than as an individual, we're already at a disadvantage." (Natasha)

"So what are we going to do?" (I)

"I didn't think someone from another Universe would be able to reach the Authority, but we're not sure of the person's identity either, are we?" (Elizabeth)

"Not as far as I can tell, but another question we can raise now is that we don't know anything about our enemies." (Caitlyn)

"But at least I discovered something, they call themselves the 'Apostles of Truth', it was being screamed in his mind over and over again." (Caitlyn)

Everyone was thinking about what Caitlyn had said when Astrid, looking a little lost, raised her hand asking a question.

"Could someone explain to me what you're talking about? I think I got lost along the way... what do you mean by "Authority" exactly?" (Astrid)

"..." (all)
