Chapter 137 - Fresh Start (1/2)

After having his fun with Selene, he went to the deck where he found burnt corpses smoldering in the sun.

Theoric looked to Sigyn, Holland, and Nina who were quietly working on cleaning it up,- ”What happened?”

Nina scowled- ”I don't think we can trust that woman.”

Holland shook her head- ”They just walked out into the sun asking for Athena's forgiveness.”

Sigyn sadly looked down- ”Theo it was awful, they came out mortified at what they became once they realized they could no longer be in the sun and then, and then... (Eyes becoming watering)... They walked out begging for forgiveness as they burned themselves alive.”

Grani tried to comfort her by patting her leg before he took the initiative to clean the remains in her stead.

Theoric frowned, he didn't like how they were forced into something they didn't want,- ”I'll have to talk to her about that, but what's done is done, I don't know how things were where she came from but I will make sure she knows it's not okay to go around doing that without someone's consent, otherwise, we will have problems.”

Nina squinted her eyes,- ”Why are you being so kind about this?”

Sigyn snorted- ”It's because he slept with her.”

Nina's eyes widened- ”How could you sleep with that evil thing!”

Theoric- ”May I remind you that besides Sigyn, everyone else here has been considered evil at one point.”

Nina who wished to say more now found herself unable as she went silent.

Sigyn- ”Theo is it because you slept with her that you're doing this, or have you really changed so much?”

Theoric quietly looked at Sigyn,- ”If I have changed, is it a problem for you?”

Sigyn quickly shook her head as she rushed over to hug him,- ”No, no, no, I'll stay with you no matter what my love, I was just worried for you is all.”

Theoric did love Sigyn with all his heart, but she was too naive, that was not the answer he was looking for. He would just have to make sure he never lost this body to another or Sigyn could fall prey to someone evil like Loki who he has not forgotten about.

Maybe he was more kind, more caring towards things he otherwise wouldn't concern himself with, but deep down he knew if anyone were to get in his way, he wouldn't be afraid to become the butcher again, a nightmare to his enemies and a savior to those who deserved it.

Selene having recovered made an appearance,- ”Oh what's all this...” She slowly asked as she took everything in, just noticing the smoldering bodies,- ”What happened, why are they dead!” She asked as her eyes flashed red, preparing for the worst.

Nina shouted- ”You did this! This is all your fault.”

Selene confused didn't drop her guard as she looked to Theoric for answers, who explained what took place.

Selene- ”I'm sorry it ended this way, but I still don't understand how they escaped my control.”

Theoric- ”My barriers must have cut you off, I always put them up during bedroom activities, I don't want anyone spying on us,” he said trying not to give to much information away.

Selene stared at him- ”That is quite the interesting power you have there, I question whether it would be good to do that to our enemies and cut them off from their army, it would send them in disarray but the consequences could be disastrous if they scatter.”

Theoric thought on it for a bit before getting back to the situation at hand,- ”I'll keep that in mind, look, Selene, I don't know how they did things where you came from but you can't be turning people without their consent.”
