He has become an entertainer for all these people, mortals and divine alike. He fought and killed for their pleasure, not his. He believes everyone has the right to do whatever they want. He wouldn't mind unless their actions are against his interest. He was interested in a fight to enjoy himself after being cooked up his place for years but their rules robbed him of his excitement. He didn't allow the law of Order to restrict him nor will he allow the rules of the gods to bind him.

'I will bring fire and chaos to you. I will be the spark of chaos that will bring change. I will give you the opportunity to better yourself. It will be up to you if you will burn or become stronger for it.' He promised silently.

He took Tyke's body and began dragging it away. It is his spoil of war. They already robbed him of the pleasure of killing Tyke. They won't rob him of the opportunity to research the mana core of a demigod and the runes on his body.

Stelios began to laugh. "Who would have thought that the weapon I selected helped in killing your demigod."

Harkam remained silent.

The god of conflict coughed before adding in. "Yes, how creative. That Helios boy has some talent. What do you think about the fight Harkam?"

The god of the sky and tempest glared at the god of conflict. His electric eyes promised gruesome acts of violence to the god of conflict if he so much as said another word. He has lost a lot today both in terms of respect which he lost because of the fight and actual financial power which he lost in the betting. He is trigger-ready, just looking for someone to take out his anger on. Unfortunately, the god of conflict suddenly became mute. He turned to his remaining demigod when he was satisfied with his target's silence.

"Let's go."

Then he transformed into lightning-infused dust wind and disappeared into the sky. The two angels transformed too and lifted Tanya up into the skies and into the divine plane.

The god of conflict laughed awkwardly after the sky god left. "Harkam was right. Your celebration was just nice. It wasn't great. But the fight made it great. For that we have him to thank."

He antagonized the sky god earlier, now he is antagonizing the sun god in Harkam's absence. It is just his nature to fan the flames of dispute.

The sun god replied icily. "Maybe. But it isn't something I should be hearing from you. We are not that close."

"My apologies Ancient Sun. I overstepped. You have a genius for a demigod. He took after you."

The high god of conflict hurriedly apologized for his comment and returned to socialize with the other gods.

For a moment there he forgot that the power granted to him as an observer due to the rules has run out. He isn't an Observer anymore. A high god cannot say whatever he wants to a grand god especially if that grand god is the sun god. It isn't only the sky god that is quick to anger. The sun flares up all the time too. So he apologized and left quickly.

Everyone was having a good time. The celebration was epic. A demigod died in a gruesome fight. Gods antagonized each other. Bets were placed. Some won and some lost. But they were all happy. All except Helios the celebrant.

He carried the mangled corpse of his foe on his shoulder as he returned to his quarters. He has blood all over his body and more is still leaking out from his dead foe. The purple blood forms a stark contrast against his orange skin but he doesn't care about that. His face is rigid and unsmiling.

"Can I help you with that?" Hak asked with concern.

"No, I'm fine."

Hak tried again. "Maybe one of your guards should help."

"I said I'm fine."

Hak nodded. "Nice fight you had out there. I didn't think you would win."

"You thought I would die?" Helios asked.

"I didn't think you would die. Your body is too strong for your age and he is merely faster than you. I thought it would be two children brawling messily since there won't be any Rune weapons."

"You were wrong."

"Yes, I was wrong. Things escalated quickly. It was still messy but it wasn't a brawl. It was a death match and it was glorious. How did you become so good at fighting? You're just a kid." Hak asked.

Helios scoffed. "Just a kid."

Being referred to as just a kid amuses him. He thought back to all he has experienced and he shook his head. These people stand before greatness but don't recognize it. They think of him as a child and just a child.

It is understandable why his performance came to Hak as a shock. Giants of Order are not blessed with powerful minds. It is most likely because of the law fragments in their bodies. It affects their brain too and makes learning difficult for them. A 50-year-old giant of order is a kid and has the mindset of a child. A matured giant of order is at least several hundred years old.

Hak continued to speak with excitement. "I know that Demigods are smarter than normal but no demigod 20 years of age can do what I saw today."

"I told you I'm a genius," Helios replied.

"You must have been blessed with more intelligence from the sun god. Praise be to the sun god." Now Hak's eyes are aglow with worship for his god.

Helios rolled his eyes and said, "It has to be that. What other reason can it be?"

It is the norm among religious people to attribute pleasant occurrences to gods and unpleasant things to tests from gods or demonic acts. It is why Hak is attributing his astounding behavior to the blessings of the sun god. He isn't even being given credit for his outstanding performance in entertaining them. It is like adding insult to injury.
