Recreation: Primordial Deities

Chapter 30: Trivial Reasons

Lionel PoV

I stared at the child in disbelief, even though I knew that it was futile I still went ahead and fought him, not for my sake but for the sake of the survivors. But now to what cost, he probably killed them all, he just baited us elves for fun. Why us? Why not those humans and beasts...

"You done mopping you're making the air a bit dreary." He says in an annoyed tone.

I can't fight back, I lost the will and drive to. I try to get angry, the thoughts that he a deity of the forests, a deity we worshiped brought us to ruin. Tears start to fall, I can't take this any more, if only I had thought more on how I acted instead of my pride getting the best of me. Maybe I should have thought of it even more, thought on how I could have done better for our sake.

He was able to beat all of us in a snap, a force and power that is true to anyone who claims that they are a deity.

I looked at him trying to brush my tears away, he then looked surprised and from his coat grabbed some cloth and urged me to dry it up.

Is this guy playing with me! I swatted his hand away. Then he sighs.

"Hey Lord Sandalphonia is trying to help you!" A small old spirit says in disbelief.

"Hah..just give it a rest Waihon just let him calm down first, anyone would still be pissed that they lost a match in an instant."

Geh! Stop reminding me...

"Though why did you take him and not kill the rest I think they kinda deserved it..." An elderly woman spirit asks him.

"Oi!" He says in anger.

Wait did I hear that right....you didn't kill them yet? As I was about to ask the deity then wraps my mouth and feet with vines and roots.

"All questions will be entertained later so please just enjoy the ride..." He says in a brusque tone.

Damn how annoying, I really don't get why we elves adored deities like him, he is a huge question mark I don't know how I should feel about him at the moment I'm supposed to be pissed but the fact that he may have spared them lightens my heart. Ugggh this one is a confusing one.

We traveled for what seemed to be a lifetime and when we stopped a strange eerie feeling overcame me, when the tree ent set me down stilled tied and gagged by binds, I can see the river flowing. Wait a weird and creepy tingey feeling could this be the center part of the forest the scouts have told me. But why would he bring me here? Unless he plans to eat me, No!! I don't want to be eaten I rather that he just killed me earlier! I even would resign to death, I don't care what the old man elf said I did not sign up to this.

The spirits watch him silently as he turns away from them and focuses my attention to me.

The kid comes closer showing his blade pressing it up my mouth, I struggled and moved alot but to no avail.

"Ugh!! Stop moving! Your gonna get that pretty face of yours cut you know."

"Mmmph!!"

Like hell I'd let you touch me! But despite being a kid outside he was quite strong and was able to knock me over and ride on top of me. And as thoughts of fear and horror came to me he the cuts the vine gag on my mouth.

"Ughhh..." What a nightmare...

"Che! You mortals..whats up with that blatant story, like I'd eat unsavory sods like your prideful kind!" He says quite pissed.

"B-but I was sure that your kind ate mortals for breakfast..."

"Pshhh thats utter BS!"

As much as I don't want to talk to this guy I really want to know what happened to the others, if what he said is true then I can rest my case. So I need to act casual and try to get him to answer.
