I'm not Alone

Chapter 32

At the front of the army was no other than Kronos. Eidos mentally sighed and land right in front of their army. To say that the monsters were scared would be an understatement. But, seeing a scary, hooded man, flying with wings as big as Pegasi, who landed in front of their huge army and was leaning against a tree casually, was enough for them to doubt themselves.

"Who are you?" Kronos asked, a bit unsettled by how nonchalant the man was. He stood and acted like he was not in front of an intimidating army, but as if he were talking about the most mundane things.

"Do I know you? I mean, are you someone important?"he said, completely ignoring his question. The question along with the fact that he sounded truly curious was enough for the titan lord to show a crack in his armor. He never lost control, but something about this, no doubt, powerful man reminded him of a particular someone who he hated. And so he let himself drop the 'tough' act.

"You do not know who I am?" Kronos asked him. He knew that he should be insulted and angry but he was so confused....he was completely thrown off by his question. Sure, he had expected a bit a screaming, bit of begging and pleading here and there but definitely not this.

"By the way, cool eyes! they look as good as gold!" the man said, and smirked under his hood. The titan lord did not understand why he was smirking or why some member of his army were laughing. His eyes were gold. Failing to crack it he decided he had had enough. Something told him this man would not give him answers and so he decided to move things along.

"Enough! Leave now if you do want to die." Kronos said, confidence lacing his words. Unfortunately the confidence faltered when huge waves of power were felt by all. And they were come from Eidos. At once they all paled, now looking like paper.

When he was playing with his old enemy, the confusion and weariness from the titan king did not go unnoticed by him. Though the betraying had broken him, he could still summon a little bit of sass, which he used rarely. Seeing a few monsters laugh at his weak pun did lift his spirits though. Who knew monsters had a sense of humor?

Though, when Kronos struggled to understand the joke and fail, it made his day! Finally when he decided he had enough, he shouted with authority and confidence for Eidos to stop. He in return decided to play with his food a bit more and let loose just a thread of aura he had contained. Needless to say he enjoyed the show.

At once, as if practiced the enemy army paled and looked at one another. a common though passed through the ranks. They needed to leave. Soon. But the threat of seeing what would happen if they disobeyed their masters orders was apparently more scary than him. And so they gathered their wits and charged.

Eidos had hoped that they wouldn't fight but he was wrong. He spread his wings once more and rapidly started to create a path of destruction, leaving heaps of gold dust and bodies in his wake.
