Chapter 315: Tyr - Broke (1/2)

Turning our heads, my mind fell blank as Sif, one of our strongest warriors, fell into the arms of Arsene wailing like a lost child.

”I didn't, please I only wanted him to love me, ” She whimpered, balling in the arms of the Devil. ”I needed his love; I needed it. I just wanted him to love me again. To hold me like he did when we were young.” she rushed to say, hoping for some kind of forgiveness.

”But he did it again, didn't he?” Arsene muttered, stroking her hair, his hollow eyes peering towards me in amusement, ”What of Astrid's mother? Didn't he have his fill of her? And she doesn't even remember, does she?”

Turning to my brother, I watched his jaw sink, ”How does he know of that? I was careful.” Thor muttered, peering towards Arsene.

”Did you hear that, Sif? Thor was careful, but wait, didn't you help too?” Arsene asked, lifting her chin with a warm expression. Even with his face covered in blood, and gore I had never seen such a pure expression upon his face. ”Yes, that's right. You poisoned her apple tree. You led her towards his camber and had...”

”Please don't please! Don't say it.” Sif, unable to hide her guilt fell towards the ground, yet Arsene was there to catch her. He wiped her tears away like a caring friend.

”Sif, why did you do it?” He asked, sending chills down our spines. This... was this the same monster from before? ”You stripped her bare, a god of innocence. And tossed her towards thor, knowing fully what would happen. She begged, didn't she? Even under the drugs, she kept on begging to stop till the end.”

Gripping thors collar tighter, my heart began to bleed as I turned towards the true monster, ”she was your family. For what reason did you do this? Was Idun not enough? You went after her daughter?”

”No need to answer,” Arsene said, ” I am sure Sif will tell us, won't you? I am sure you will tell us why? Why he wanted Idun and her daughter.”

”Don't make me,” Sif muttered, unable to open her eyes.

”No, my dear, please don't cry. Embrace it. You're more of a monster than he is, don't you think? You started to enjoy it, didn't you? Enjoy bringing him a woman, or at least you did when he had an interest in you. You loved it when he stroked your hair, called your name, kissed your cheek.”

”Release me!” Thor bellowed, but my grip quickly fell upon his throat. ”I WILL KILL HIM! NOW!”

”I can give you his love,” Arsene said, causing both Thor and I to freeze. ”I will make it, so all you can do is feel his touch. You will feel his touch every day; all you have to do is accept me. Accept my name and will.”

”NOOOOOOO!” I screamed, rushing towards them, but a large scarred minitour appeared, gipping a demonic ax that dripped with the blood of my kind. Leaping away in haste, space all around Midgard shattered. Snorting flames from his nose, he stumped upon the ground, skidding its hooves and forth like a bull waiting to strike.

”A Worthy Foe! I am Arkcius, Second Son of Ekthus,” He roared, sending tremors through space.

Shivering, my heart trembled at the monster before me. He was powerful, I was a Mid god, but he could definitely battle me evenly as a New God.

”Thor!” I shouted as the god of thunder and lightning shot forth, trying our hardest to get past this thing but, our bodies froze when over thirty demons appeared, all of them overflowing with the power of a new God. However, none of them were more powerful than Arkcius... Except one, who remained by Arsene's side, watching me like a hawk.
