- Real World.

- The highest place on Mount Olympus, the abode of the main Olympian Gods.

On Mount Olympus, the Gods were gathering, even those who usually rarely went to Mount Olympus had to attend this meeting.

Because after all, the disappearance of Ten of the Twelve Major Gods of Olympus was not something that could be taken lightly. If a God of Zeus' class could disappear, what about them, who were only Minor Gods?

In addition, this meeting was also attended by almost all circles of Gods, starting from the Personified Gods, the Sea Gods, the Sky Gods, the Rural Gods, the Agricultural Gods, to Humans Who Became Gods.

As for the Gods of the Underworld, none of them appeared to be present at this meeting because, after all, it was not an easy thing if someone wanted to leave the Underworld.

A meeting that usually could only be attended by certain Gods, but this time, the meeting was attended by those who could be classified as 'Evil' Gods because the problem this time did not only concern the human world, but also their 'existence' as gods, or that was what they thought.

"... Lord Hephaestus, as the remaining main God along with Hades, what do you think about this?"

Asked one of the minor Gods to Hephaestus, who was sitting in a special place for the twelve main Gods of Olympus, which was now only occupied by Hephaestus himself, while the other nine seats and two seats placed higher, namely the seats for Zeus and Hera were empty.

"*Sigh* You made me quit my job just because of something as trivial as this?"

Hephaestus replied sounding like he had no interest whatsoever in this. Then speak again.

"... You know that I am one of the two remaining; why don't you call Hades here, too? And do you have the authority to hold a meeting like this 'just' because you want to? Since when did you have such authority?"

Hearing Hephaestus' words, all the Gods in the room immediately fell silent, not knowing what to answer.

"... LORD HEPHAESTUS, How can you treat this as a trivial matter when the King of the Gods Himself is missing?"

"... Kratos/Cratus, a primordial deity, the personification of strength and power. One of the four children of Pallas and Styx, alongside his siblings Nike (Victory), Bia (Force), and Zelus (Zeal), known for their unwavering loyalty and their willingness to use force to achieve their goals, You who claim to be so loyal to Zeus, how could you let this happen? What did you do back then, that this could happen?"

"THIS AND THAT ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS!"

The angry Kratos was immediately restrained by his sister, Bia, The Goddess of force, power, might, and strength. And Bia herself said to Hephaestus.

"Lord Hephaestus, We respect you very much, so please do not mock our Loyalty like that, if we knew something like this would happen, we would never have left the King of the Gods' Side even for a second"

"... Yeah Sure, This and that are two different things... I just want all of this to be over quickly and get back to lifting my hammer"

"HEPHAESTUS! YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ANY OF THIS AT ALL!"

"Why are you all so worried, they just disappeared, not leaving this world, sooner or later, they will also return"

"But Lord Hephaestus, this all happened so suddenly, and not just one but ten, no, even Goddess Hestia disappeared, we all know how Goddess Hestia is, no matter where we look there is something not normal about this"

"Wait, isn't it strange that only Lord Hephaestus and Hades are left?"

Said one of the gods which caught the attention of the God of the Underworld.

"Isn't it even stranger that none of the Gods from the Underworld are here?"

Said Apate, the god of trickery, fraud, and deception.

After hearing Apate's opinion, the other Gods began to discuss it among themselves.

"... Wait, we can't just blame one party without any concrete evidence, and Apate, I know how you are, so don't try to do your tricks here, because it won't work if we weren't in this Holy place, I wouldn't want to be in the same room with you like this, don't think that we have forgotten what you have done"

Said Aletheia, the goddess of truth, who openly expressed her dislike for Apate.

After that, a heated debate took place between the gods; some accused Hades of doing something, some defended Hades, and some just chose to remain silent. Hephaestus was one of those on this side.

*Shaaa!*

Amid the heated debate of the gods, in the midst of them, a pillar of darkness suddenly rose in the middle of the Colosseum-like hall, all the gods immediately felt cold and instantly made them all Goosebumps.

Coming out from the pillar of darkness was Hades himself, riding his ghost chariot and wearing his helmet of darkness. The figure of Hades, who suddenly appeared, immediately made the entire room silent without a single sound being heard.

"... Interesting"

The first words out of Hades' mouth.

"..."

"..."

But none of the gods, not even Hephaestus himself, understood the meaning behind the words 'Interesting' that came out of Hades' mouth. Before Hades himself then opened his mouth again.

"... I've been listening to your 'conversation' from the start... And it's quite interesting"

"!!!"

Hearing Hades' words, the other Gods were immediately shocked, and those who had been accusing Hades were immediately covered in cold sweat. And with the addition of Hades glancing at them as if marking their faces, they could only avert their gazes with pounding hearts.

Hades then turned his gaze and headed to his place, no one spoke even until Hades sat on his chair, with the absence of Zeus and Poseidon, along with Hera and several other main Olympian Gods, automatically, the highest authority would be held by Hades, but he preferred to sit on his own chair rather than take the highest place, namely Zeus's place which was left empty.

"..."

Even after Hades sat down, not a sound was heard.

"Why? Why are you all silent? Continue your conversation! I'm interested in listening to it"

"..."

"What was that? You accused me of being the cause of all this? Me?"

"..."

"What are your thoughts on this, Hephaestus?"

Hades asked Hephaestus, but Hephaestus' answer was still the same as before.

"Don't drag me into this, Hades, I didn't want to get involved in this troublesome matter from the start, their disappearing has nothing to do with me, I just want to return to my workshop and create something new"

"It's so like you"

Hades said, and then looked back at the other Gods.

"... So what? I'm already here, so what are you guys going to do?"

"..."

But once again, none of them dared to open their mouths, even those who had defended Hades, let alone those who had accused Hades, they just wanted to get away from here immediately and hide somewhere that Hades couldn't reach if possible.

*Clap~Clap~Clap~*

"!!!"

In the silent room with only Hades' voice being heard, a sudden clap was heard, this attracted the attention of the gods, and they wanted to know who had such courage in front of Hades.

"... Who's that?"

Asked the Gods, looking around but not finding the origin of the applause.

"Where are you all looking? I'm here"

Said someone whose voice came from the entrance gate to the meeting hall.

In an instant, all the Gods and Goddesses, including Hephaestus and Hades, shifted their gazes towards the origin of the voice.

"!!!"

There, they saw a man who, even by god's standards, could be considered quite handsome; he was sitting on a sofa casually, with a child who looked almost exactly like him sitting beside him and a strange 'ornament' on the man's shoulder.

The man and the child and even the strange 'Ornament' were casually eating food (popcorn) that the gods did not recognize, the man looked at the gods with an interested gaze without saying anything and continued to put food into his mouth without caring about the gazes of the Gods that were directed at him, whether they were hostile gazes or gazes of interest.

"... You guys want some?"

Said the man while offering the food in his hand to the gods.

However, the small gesture made by the man only provoked the anger of some of the gods in the meeting hall who took out their respective weapons.

"WHO ARE YOU?! HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?!!"

"DON'T ASK! LET'S ATTACK HIM AND FORCE THE ANSWER OUT OF HIS MOUTH!"

The Gods then wanted to go towards the man, and the man just smiled faintly.

"Silence!"

That one word from Hades instantly brought the meeting hall back to silence.

After that, Hades looked at the man, who also turned his gaze toward Hades.

"... I know you... Why are you here?"

Hades asked the man.

Hearing Hades' question, the man smiled faintly again and then said.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to join in the fun and maybe in the process... Rob, you guys, maybe?" Said the man who was Taufik.

....
