161 Always Time for a Drive (2/2)
He is sitting in the passenger seat while Zephyr is at the back. She is looking out the window, checking the surrounding with great interest.
”That is my business, Zeus. I assume that you two would want more time to properly test your powers in your new bodies?”
I response and change the subject. What I do with my own free time is not for Zeus or Zephyr to know and question.
”There is only so much we can do fighting each other, and besides, you interrupted us when you stop time, not just once but multiple times. It does get annoying, Max.”
Zeus points out.
”Is that so. You never told me how you manage to do that. I thought my power affects everyone, even Gods themselves. And yes, I have met a God before.”
I bullshit since I don't want him to use that excuse.
”Gods are affected by Powers, oh… I see what you're doing. Please stop that, Max.”
Zeus narrows his eyes, making me chuckle.
”It is not an excuse. I can move around freely even when time is frozen because I am a God. Where do you think all the Olympian powers go when they are dead, Max? Not just the Olympian. The Titans as well. But their combined powers pale in comparison to actual Powers.”
Zeus continues.
I nod since it is one of my theories.
For Zeus to kill the Olympians, it would greatly shift the balance of power in his reality since the Gods of Mythical Greece are there to actually keep the world in check, so without them around, the Titans will be allowed to run free again.
If that is the case, Zeus, being who he is, would have to kill the Titans too, and one of the is the freaking God of Time.
Even if Cronus is not as powerful as me in term of dominating Time, physically and metaphorically, his power should still allow Zeus to counteract mine, especially when I am this greatly weakened due to my death and rebirth.
The question remains, however, is that how much powers and abilities does Zeus really have? But he did say it is pale in comparison to actual Powers. That is with a capital P.
”You sure speculate a lot, Max.”
Zeus comments.
”Takes one to know one, Zeus.”
I response and clear my mind. It didn't really matter what kind of powers Zeus have under his sleeves, it will never compare to the power of an Aspect which affects all realities.
”Is that so? By the way, what years is this in human measurement of time. I am guessing that it is the 90s or so. I didn't see anyone a smart phone, so that means it has been invented yet.”
Zeus questions.
I humor him. It is just a friendly conversation, but I learn quite a bit. Zeus is quite up-to-date with the time and culture. He knows exactly when stuff happens, at least in the original timeline. It would still happen in the prime-timeline if none of my actions affect it.
”Can't you drive a better car than this crap, Max? And what is with all of these junks here?”
Zephyr interrupts from the back. She is getting bored, like really bored. Other than her pretty looks, I don't think I like her company very much, at least not until she gets serious.
”Of course, I can, Zephyr, but I don't want to.”
I response while Zeus gives me a shrug.
”And why not?”
Zephyr questions, making me sigh.
Zeus also sighs and decides to check the neighborhood instead of helping me out with this.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
I really don't like people asking stupid questions when everything is so obvious, being displayed right in front of them.
”For sentimental reasons, Zephyr. It is actually my first and only car, which I had brought with my own money after working my ass off for several summers. So even if I can have it looks like a sport car like a Ferrari, it doesn't give me the same feeling. Besides, it can leave any cars in the dust.”
I explain to her.
Despite being my first car in appearance, it is still one of the best cars available in the 1990s for average consumers. In fact, it hasn't even been released in America yet.
”Oh. Well, it still looks crappy.”
Zephyr responses.
”Your opinion is noted.”
I state while rolling my eyes. I then resume my conversation with Zeus, trying to understand what his goals and motivations are aside from finally having a soul himself.
”Where are we going anyway? I mean where are you going, Max? Can we get something to eat before you do? I am super starving!”
Zephyr interrupts the conversation once more.
”Is she always like this?”
I question.
”Yes. Get used to it. But in any case, I also want to eat something. It is not because I am hungry, I just like the taste. Humans do consume some remarkable foods. Besides, we can talk more about random things over a nice juicy burger.”
Zeus points out.
”Good point. Any suggestion?”
I ask since everyone makes burger differently, and he should have his own preference.
”McDonalds. I want a Happy Meal.”
Zephyr puts her own suggestion, making me wince.
”How old are you, anyway, Zephyr?”
I question. She sounds like a little kid, honestly.
”She's 10, Max. Well, she is 10 right now.”
Zeus responses, surprising me enough to stop the car and look at Zephyr from the front, checking her up and down.
How the fuck is she 10!? She didn't seem like it when she threats to castrate me.
Oh right. Appearance can be deceiving, but holy fuck!? Is this what a legal loli is?
No wait, it is not. Legal loli is actually the reverse. Child body with adult mind.
This is adult body with childlike mind.
This is illegal adult!
