"You have been chosen Secregard !" That voice boomed from the heavens, "to be a part of the council of the grand gods."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAwRVPwQkUGu
Secregard smiled, so this was how they wanted to play, he thought, to lure him to their side.
311Please respect copyright.PENANA12jJlBcv04
"What makes you think I deserve to be a part of the council of the grand gods ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAQoRoJdgVuv
"Because you have distinguished yourself through your show of strength and endurance."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAnQyKFVTxpw
"You mean, how I massacred my fellow gods isn't that right ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANA5x7NuEBTOp
"Indeed, you are correct Secregard, might is right."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAMFsUR9qOHt
"Why do you think I brought an end to their existence", he asked, trying to keep himself from charging into the heavens.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAIdGJV6CXZh
"You must not allow weakness cloud your judgement this is the way of the heavens, the strong prey on the weak, the lower domains are the soil of the higher realms that is their purpose of creation."
311Please respect copyright.PENANABT5pj16kQc
"To be fed on", said Secregard, "what if you were the prey ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAVD0e4awZVX
"How dare you ?!" The voice thundered, "Calling a grand god a prey."
311Please respect copyright.PENANA0x6o2S93vI
"What if you were ? I only asked."
311Please respect copyright.PENANA1nQ0z18qZE
"Then who will become the predator if we become the prey ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANACzIPibIB94
"I said", Secregard charging at the heavens, "I shall become the predator."
311Please respect copyright.PENANA006ZWOZMWu
The winds howled and thundered as he rose to the ruptured heavens. His oath was firm and still blazing in his heart, who were they to claim omnipotence ? When they were nothing but greedy and power thirsty fools who thought that none could rival them.
311Please respect copyright.PENANASfSVUoLeOG
"Well then", Secregard was ablaze "I shall become their rival."
311Please respect copyright.PENANA33EbOJ2VBh
The heavens thundered and the gods boiled with rage.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAb6umB1sP7l
"He has refused our offer, he believes we are at wrong."
311Please respect copyright.PENANARnnkyZzncM
"I told you he was a lost cause. For him to massacre his entire kind all in the name of defending the weak, shows how much he has degraded to nothing but scum."
311Please respect copyright.PENANABfZJ1HxxSL
"Even scum would be a honorary title to address him, traitor will be perfect."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAiVPssMreew
"And how do we deal with traitors ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAYuFBEFh1e5
"Throw them to the bottom of hell !" grand ELDER GOD, MERNOS declared.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAX7zbbHkWgS
The heavens rattled and burst into flames, but Secregard was still unfazed. He was aiming for nothing other than the demise of the grand gods and there was no storm that was going to stand in his way. They might have been able to persist in their ways since the beginning of time, but their judge had arrived and he was going to mete out their punishments, so that they shall be know that their omnipotence, their power, was never theirs to begin with, they were nothing but scum to be thrown to the bottom of the earth.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAcFqoVvZsxh
The earth trembled and gave way as that sea of lava rose to the skies aiming at Secregard. He was their target, the thorn at the side of the grand gods.
311Please respect copyright.PENANA8o5lOcpk5b
"Secregard !" That voice boomed. "Again, choose wisely, become one of us and you shall have infinite power, or rot in depths of misery and regret for eternity !"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAnlJ85MLEoF
"The latter condition is better than being one of you", Secregard proclaimed as he charged onwards.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAuiiwXNquAW
"So be it !" The grand gods declared.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAEgpE6j1MHa
That sea of lava became enraged, aiming at the skies, it tore open its jaws swallowing Secregard into it's depths.

TEN THOUSAND YEARS LATER ...
311Please respect copyright.PENANAd8gTqSy4Lr
His form was a pillar of flames, with those chains running down his arms and legs as he was bounded within this realm of fire. His breaths were steaming and when he finally opened his eyes, they were molten red.
311Please respect copyright.PENANANlNcZbtjWW
"Secregard !" That voice boomed. "Have you finally decided to follow your path ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAtvzWiIhfOT
"What path ?" Secregard chuckled.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAhDcBH0auQ3
"You despise us yet, you still hold onto your status as a god why not denounce it ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANANHxwm5KFup
"Why should I give up the weapon to fight my enemy ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAtN7j2baOM6
"You shall rot in this pit forever !"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAbXXE9sqOpf
"Forever ?" Secregard laughed, "how long is forever to you ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAhBTpQJ6uJJ
But the voice didn't respond.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAcRJvNylVzM
"Ten thousand years", he sighed, tugging at the chains, "and I have dug my roots into the bowels of the heavens and the earth. I must ascend, the time has come for me to be free."
311Please respect copyright.PENANATd53nEasY6
The lava within this pit rose to the skies, tearing at the heavens, it tore apart realm after realm in search of the one passage that led to Godsland. But before it could find its way, that army of divine beasts rose, charging at the pit in which Secregard was chained.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAvf7A5iZFVE
How long can you continue ? This has already come to an end, can't you see that this, IS THE END."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAZvKjAmisBl
His being turned to stone as it steamed, steaming of the rage he had concealed within him all these centuries, all these millenniums and now was the time for him to be ...
311Please respect copyright.PENANAaWAGOnWqe0
" ... REBORN !"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAay9yaG4Cc8
Secregard's being erupted from the cocoon, blazing and burning of a golden flare which had never been seen in the entire ranks of existence. Those burning cracks ran down his eyes, steaming and burning, they buried their fury deep into his soul.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAnSDJDYsTA6
"Now I shall come for you all", he said, tearing away from the chains and charging at the skies.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAvkLAC8oPv0
Like a bolt of lightning, he tore through the ranks of the army of divine beasts. No way were they going to keep him tied down this time, to him after spending ten millenniums in that pit of hell, he knew what true power and pain represented. And like the warlord he had now become, he was going to show them that within the heavens there would be none who was going to rival him.
311Please respect copyright.PENANANG9mjIqMI2
His form burst into flames with that sea of burning lightning erupting, expanding across this expanse it set the heavens ablaze, consuming the entire army of divine beasts. It left them howling as they burnt to death. But he wasn't done yet, their wailing souls could be seen rushing towards Secregard as he sealed them within the orb of flames in his right palm, where they howled and growled even louder. This was the torment they were going to endure for centuries and the very way ...
311Please respect copyright.PENANAfk9wq1Oov5
HE WAS GOING TO TORTURE THE GRAND GODS.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAkrkNn4FoLt
The heavens tore open as gateway after gateway led towards the final destination where, THE APOCALYPTIC SURGE WAS GOING TO BEGIN
311Please respect copyright.PENANATJnI1P4sgG
That flaring red robe took form over Secregard as he soared like a flash of lightning towards the heavens.
311Please respect copyright.PENANAlPCn2yISgO
This was indeed his rebirth, and he was going to make sure that this time all of Godsland was going to be his.

The mighty pillars within this hall gave away the impression of one standing within the halls of mount Olympus, the seat of gods. But this wasn't Olympus, this was the seat of the ELDER GODS OF THE UNIVERSE OF HAYRA - THE COLLONADES.

"Will it be worthwhile in the long run ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAkSX2xbJQpT
"I hope so, once he realizes that he is no match against the will of the grand gods, he will be willing to take his place."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAn7UKALUz5f
"Will we abandon him still ?"
311Please respect copyright.PENANAsf1BNpVN9o
"No, not yet, I see potential in him, I see in him the one deserving of the right to have the title of the ATEMPORAL."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAffsvDHtWPT
"Are you exaggerating ? So you think this is a joke ?!"
311Please respect copyright.PENANA2OkPd3XCuk
"No it isn't" the leader of the COLLONADES said, "it isn't an exaggeration, but an unrivalled fact. Amongst the other gods to have been created within Godsland, only Secregard has the will and power to rise to become the ATEMPORAL."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAZbzvXFtIp0
"Then we cannot have him fight against us."
311Please respect copyright.PENANACvxMv6qDDk
"Then wasn't it a mistake to have released him ? We should have kept him bounded to ensure that he doesn't go against us ! We should have kept him restrained !"
311Please respect copyright.PENANArlFok4BsS3
"Yes we should have but, would that have been enough to convince one like him. Secregard was willing to bring an apocalypse upon Godsland over his desire for justice. Do you think retraining him will do us any good ? Rather, it would give him the impression that we are truly tyrants and that he is actually fighting for justice.
311Please respect copyright.PENANA8SyTaIJq9t
"And we could no longer keep him tamed any longer."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAsyidepLFoE
"His roots had already broken the limits of hell."
311Please respect copyright.PENANAqwIw7SvpXW
"We no longer have the power to stop him. But when he has been released to see the world as it is, he will come to realize that the beings of the lesser realms can be as despicable and power hungry as the ELDER GODS. Only when he has truly experienced it himself, will he come to realize that the demolition of the weaker domains was nothing more than the will of the heavens - IT IS THE WILL OF TIME."

He laughed, "What you don't know is !" He roared to the skies, "that I have become darkness itself. I shall bring upon THE NINE RANKS OF EXISTENCE, the darkness of the age. the reckoning of time shall be shattered, THE BEGINNING OF THE NINE THOUSAND YEAR WAR.

"Kneel to your fate !" He roared to the heavens which trembled as those meteors fell from the skies.

Thus,was the start of the war against the heavens, the beginning of a new climax whose end was beyond existence.

"This was the way of the world since time immemorial this was the way of time", Secregard sighed, "atemporal."
311Please respect copyright.PENANADi2vtvdcDB
He charged at the army of Kaldroxs his whip furious and boiling with flames lashed like an enraged serpent. it's fangs tearing the hides of the Kaldroxs alive they were infinite, but Secregard's will was atemporal, it was the will of the ancients the will beginning since time immemorial. Infinite in its hunger and desire to tear the heavens apart, only the strong could wage a war against the stronger, only a fool would dare face the waves of mightier storms and who, could that fool be ?
