Chapter 325 - 325: Betrayal
Again
Van was once again put in the sao when he first ain, he asked the same question
"Did… you kill theain, Dionysus answered with a no But seeing as Gerald was still able to stay awake and was even standing on his oo feet, the thing he put in their drinks was not poison; or if it was, the toxicity was not that lethal, at least not enough to kill even Queen Nori, who could be considered the most normal of them
He knew Hermes was immune to all kinds of poison, and with the addition of the Passive Skill he got froy was practically immune to any outside influence-- poison or mind control
And now, he finally had the chance to test out one of the their drinks
"What… is this?" Gerald's voice once again whispered through the air as he slightly struggled to get up The fire giants were blocking his path, but even weakened, he was able to approach Dionysus The four fire giants looked like they weighed paper, as they see any resistance to each of Gerald's steps
Seeing this, Dionysus could not help but slightly whistle in awe, "I h to make even Artemis's child asleep, but to think that a human is able to stay awake even so… you System Holders truly are a different breed"
"Shut… the fuck up!" Gerald then stoe crack to al its way to the wall as it slowly opened up the tavern to the outside
"Hold him," Dionysus then raised his hand And as soon as he did so, the other fire giants that were quietly watching the situation unfold all rushed towards Gerald, trying to pin hiround
"I see you have another coth," Dionysus then let out a sigh as he watched the fire giants being thrown around like cotton, shooting through the air andthis, Dionysus?"
"Isn't it obvious, King Vanny?" Dionysus then trotted his way back to his seat, letting hi the whole of Muspelheiled extremely
"I have betrayed you, and the rest of the Oly and deep breath as he looked Van straight in the eyes, "Sorry about that"
"Betray? What's there to betray?" As soon as Van heard Dionysus's words, the re hint of warmth on his face slowly faded, replaced only by his eyes which glared at Dionysus like a stranger, "The only Olympian I see here is you"
"Then I suppose it's quite poetic, then?" Dionysus let out a suess I a myself"
"Why?"
"Because I have made ht, King Vanny The Oly for so that does not want to be found, Artemis is dead While you… you do not even consider yourself as one of us"
""
"The Seraph's gates are also gone-- the only connection we had left to Oly Vanny I have been here for 5000 years, and the only faction that is worthy of my services are the Aesir The Vanir are okay, but they tend not to let ed throughout the years-- she is no longer as fun as before"
"You serve the Aesir?"
The only Aesir Van had seen so far was a skeleton, back in Gerald's cave For theet Dionysus on their side, just how much influence and power do they truly have in the 9 Realms? He had been here for months, and yet he had not even felt their presence even once
"Muspelheim is with the Aesir," Dionysus continued, "And with the River being destroyed, and you being here-- I just could not help butto do with it, King Vanny-- or at least soroup is"
Dionysus then turned his attention back to Gerald, as still busy fending off the countless Fire Giants that were trying to stomp him to death
"I a and deep sigh, "We were just here to see the sights Gerald is a part of roup"
"Oh, and what about her?" Dionysus then pointed towards Queen Nori, as still lying on the floor completely unconscious even with all the noise that Gerald and the fire giants were iants? Jotunheim was the first to lose their connection to the other Realms… surely, it's too much of a coincidence for her to be here when our Gate exploded"
"That one is actually really a coincidence," Van let out a sigh, "The only reason she is here is because oftired of answering your questions, Dionysus"
A golden light lightly flickered around Van's eyes as he took a step forward, "If you truly are no longer part of the Olympians, then we do not have any connections to each other…
