Chapter 91: Ancient Gods are Weird



James was so mesmerised by the sight that he forgot to run away from the attack, as if mesmerised.

At that very moment, time began to flow backwards and James stumbled. Chronos stopped his attack and looked at James with a strange expression.

"Why didn\'t you try to dodge?" Chronos asked, and James, hearing this, replied, "To tell you a lie, I\'m amazed that the time element revolves around you, you are time itself, old man."

Chronos was surprised again when he heard this, but this time he did it with a huge smile on his face.

"You\'re talented, huh? I think you should stop using the fire elemental and focus on the time James, you have just gained the element and if you can already feel it being used by those who are sensitive to it, then your body is already used to it."

When Chronos uttered these words, James shook his head and then said, "I can think about it, but I like the fire element."

"Why do you love a destructive force?" Thanatos asked, and James, hearing this, began to speak proudly:

"I think all elements are special in their way. The relaxing feeling of water, the freedom of air, the durability of earth, the majesty of lightning, the fearfulness of blood, the purity of light and many more, but I don\'t think any element is alive. Fire, on the other hand, feels like it could burn the whole universe if you let it loose. Alive, awake, as if it has a soul."

At James\' words, Chronos turned to Nyx and pointed two fingers at him, an expression that seemed to indicate that Nyx should speak to Chaos.

"Interesting point of view, but now that you know that time itself is an element, fire is no longer the only living element, is it?" Thanatos asked.

James shook his head and then said, "Yeah, you\'re not wrong. I just love the element, and if I have to give up one thing to gain another, I might as well get away from it. No rule says I can\'t have both time and fire, is there? Even if there was, the same would apply to aura and magic, but I\'m standing in front of you, not in the grave, don\'t you think?"

Thanatos smiled at those words and then nodded his head and shut his mouth, what James had said made perfect sense and was, everyone would agree, special.

After all, James was constantly achieving the impossible, many situations seemed to be subjective to him now, the tower had even lost the ability to lie inside the first floor, and the only reason for this was James himself.

After these words, James stood up again and then said, "I can do this one more time, old man, I don\'t want to faint, Moros and the others have made all these preparations just because of my future."

"How did you know we were doing it for you?" Moros asked, sounding surprised.

James smiled and said, "The gods like to gossip, Moros." and turned back to Chronos.

Chronos could see that James was ready, so he put himself in a ready position and suddenly jumped on James.

James used the time elemental one last time and instantly saw that Chronos was in front of him, still at the same speed as before, and the time elemental around him looked just as beautiful.

James, who had ducked at that very moment, somehow managed to dodge the sword blow, at that moment the elemental expired and James gasped for breath.

\'Clap-clap-clap-clap!\'

Suddenly there was a round of applause from the throne, Nyx\'s satisfied face was visible to all, and the same was true for Chronos.

"I used a worse elemental grade than the one you used, but you managed to dodge that attack, even if it wasn\'t serious, I applaud Nyx, you did well, but this is only the first day of your training, you still have 5 more days to go." Chronos suddenly said the look of pride on James\' face was something to behold.

Chronos seemed to bring the first day of training to an end, after almost two hours of training James was feeling exhausted, he was sweating profusely and his clothes were all covered in blood, at least the armour Hephaestus had made was dirt-free.

Meanwhile, James was eager to meet him but unfortunately, he was not at Mount Olympus, he seemed to be forging iron somewhere, at least that was the rumour James had heard from the other gods.

With that, James stretched his whole body and then said, "I wonder if there\'s a hotel in the tower that offers massages, my whole body is cramped."

He then nodded to Nyx and Erebus and asked, "I need to get myself ready for the feast, can I go?"

When the two nodded, James turned to leave, and just then Nemesis appeared beside him.

James still couldn\'t seem to believe that he was with Nemesis, it was obvious that no one was going to believe it.

He wondered how Ariel would react to all of this when James returned.

With that, James entered his room and Nemesis followed him in.

"Umm...is there something you wanted to say?" James suddenly asked, and Nemesis, hearing this, replied, "I was thinking we could take a shower together."

James shook his head as if he couldn\'t believe what he was hearing and then said, "I don\'t know exactly why you think that."

Nemesis said, "It\'s quite normal, everyone does it together here."

James slapped himself across the face with his hand, then shook his head and said, "The ancient Greeks were really strange people, even their gods bath together. I\'d forgotten that there was no bathroom segregation back then."

"So does that mean no?" Nemesis asked and James said, "You\'ve already seen me shower a few times, you\'ve all seen me shower, so I have nothing to be ashamed of."

The feast was a few hours away anyways, he needed to get ready.
