DESTINY GAMES-Chapter 245: Divine Favor.
For the first time since Kelvin gained his second ability, he stopped being able to see her. He also couldn’t hear her voice. He didn’t know how to feel about that.
He didn’t know if Wrath was gone forever and what it would mean for his second ability. So his emotions were uncertain. But the one emotion that rose above all of this uncertainty is admiration and awe for the show of power.
Aganju turned to look at him and said, "Don’t get the wrong idea, boy. You might someday become my boss, as that insidious parasite has put it, but I am not here to curry favor with you. I am here to pass away the time and to also check out my future prey."
"It is not certain that you would become my prey in the future. But it is certain that I will be able to harm you once you become a god king. I am sure that many others are already lining up to take a bite out of you when that happens. So it is you who should curry favor with me."
Kelvin nodded in complete agreement. Unfortunately, it still wasn’t enough to stop Aganju from being angry.

The true god snorted and said, "I don’t like that bitch. I hate parasites the most. But what I hate the most is the fact that an entity that is usually enslaved could become the equal of a god king."
"It is an afront and a disrespect to everything the Yggdrasil civilization stands for. She disgusts me. Just because she has you, she feels like she can say anything to him. I crush puny wills like this all the time."
He ranted for a while. He didn’t appear to be talking to Kelvin, though. It seemed that he just wanted to make his opinion on the matter known for the record.
It was until he was done that he turned to Kelvin and said, "If you need my help one day to remove her, don’t hesitate to visit me."
Kelvin’s eyes shot open. He wanted to express his thanks, but the true god could read his mind, so he already knew before he could say anything.
Aganju said, "Don’t thank me yet. I won’t help you for free. You will have to bring something that will make it worth my while."
""The favor is that you can request my audience and ask for my help when you have what it is that might interest me. I will listen to you, and I won’t steal what you have brought from you."
"If what you have brought is indeed worthy, I will help you. If not, I won’t kill you for wasting my time. That is all I have to give you."
Kelvin nodded and said, "Thank you very much."
The two of them became silent. Kelvin didn’t know what to say, and he didn’t dare ask Aganju what he was waiting for.
They waited like that for 11 minutes. Wrath’s figure reappeared after that 11 minutes.
She had a lot to say. She pointed at him and said, "Your act of disrespect will be punished severalfold when I come to power in the future."
She cursed and swore vengeance in many ways. Aganju didn’t appear to mind or care.
When she was done, he asked, "Are you going to tell me your theory, or do I need to scatter your existence again?"
Wrath huffed and puffed. But she eventually spoke. "I think the trees are part of the body of the true god of this world."
Aganju was quick to say, "You’re wrong."
He snorted and dug deeper. "So much for your precious theory. I don’t know what I expected from you. But whatever it was, it had to be better than this garbage."
Wrath wanted to flare up. But she didn’t.
Instead, she asked, "Why don’t you correct me, oh god of hot feces from the planet?"
Kelvin struggled and somehow managed to keep a straight face after a volcanic eruption had been likened to the feces of a planet.
He struggled, but one look from Aganju helped him find the strength to not laugh or chuckle or smile or grin.
Aganju said, "It is not a true god. It is a false god. A certain demigod, probably the first demigod of this world, has decided to fuse with the Will of the world as a way to become a true god."
"She hasn’t succeeded yet. She also hasn’t failed. In fact, she is still in the process of awakening her divine fire. Until she does, she is not a true god."
Wrath countered, "But I was right about the trees being her body?"
Aganju insisted, "You were right about the wrong thing. It is not something you should be proud of."
Wrath asked, "If you are not scared of her, why are you directing the soldiers to cut off her body?"
Aganju refused to say. He said, "That’s top secret information. It is none of your business."
Wrath reminded him, "You came to us."
"That doesn’t make it your business."
Wrath wanted to argue again, but Aganju ripped her shadowy form apart with a slap. This made Wrath disappear again.
The true god shook his head and said, "I wish I could kill her."
Then he took a step and disappeared.
Kelvin couldn’t relax yet because he didn’t know if Aganju was truly gone or if his mind was being coerced to play tricks on him again.
He thought back to the argument that Wrath and the true god just had. Then he thought to himself, "If I am being honest, Wrath has a point. The two are almost the same if..."
He stopped himself from completing his thoughts, but it was too late. The first half was damning enough.
But what he feared didn’t happen. Aganju didn’t pop into existence beside him to swallow him up. It appeared that the true god was truly gone.
The lack of danger made him regain his confidence. He thought to himself, "Not that he can act directly against me. But I’m sure he can make my life difficult if he wants to."
