"You have been chosen Secregard !" That voice boomed from the heavens, "to be a part of the council of the grand gods."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkNRN1qijR
Secregard smiled, so this was how they wanted to play, he thought, to lure him to their side.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5xZ6Xk4Bv
"What makes you think I deserve to be a part of the council of the grand gods ?"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡracdF9mn2n
"Because you have distinguished yourself through your show of strength and endurance."

"You mean, how I massacred my fellow gods isn't that right ?"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLNUdTHbJ9
"Indeed, you are correct Secregard, might is right."

"Why do you think I brought an end to their existence", he asked, trying to keep himself from charging into the heavens.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUZHmy77AW
"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."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEea2ksFEL
"To be fed on", said Secregard, "what if you were the prey ?"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6J4iq6nj1b
"How dare you ?!" The voice thundered, "Calling a grand god a prey."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM9S7NM66E
"What if you were ? I only asked."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmrzx5eE3D
"Then who will become the predator if we become the prey ?"

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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPNHX0KuGf
"Well then", Secregard was ablaze "I shall become their rival."

"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."

"Throw them to the bottom of hell !" grand ELDER GOD, MERNOS declared.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqS4WEEqub
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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk9stw3l6K
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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IO4OHHoJR
"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 !"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94hTh0sRv3
"The latter condition is better than being one of you", Secregard proclaimed as he charged onwards.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk1pEYQwiD
"So be it !" The grand gods declared.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTKrMpHE4x
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 ...
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Auzb5P4p
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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDTNay3Z16
"Secregard !" That voice boomed. "Have you finally decided to follow your path ?"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfhA2AR69w
"What path ?" Secregard chuckled.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGyD6whJTq
"You despise us yet, you still hold onto your status as a god why not denounce it ?"

But the voice didn't respond.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsxTqFiJp6
"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."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnThhJR1JDo
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.

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 ...
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y8cvhQrsa
" ... REBORN !"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXTHtiRAEz
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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3NndQK0eZ
"Now I shall come for you all", he said, tearing away from the chains and charging at the skies.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp5SNSCiuN
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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q2Uga2xcL
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 ...
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADVTM0oqUp
HE WAS GOING TO TORTURE THE GRAND GODS.

The heavens tore open as gateway after gateway led towards the final destination where, THE APOCALYPTIC SURGE WAS GOING TO BEGIN

That flaring red robe took form over Secregard as he soared like a flash of lightning towards the heavens.

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 we abandon him still ?"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKJIfOna1I
"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."

"Are you exaggerating ? So you think this is a joke ?!"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOtDURSMyn
"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."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMhgITTZNU
"Then we cannot have him fight against us."
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6cw5ChOZd
"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 !"
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPRwSEimcs
"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.
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtonPmQvvd

"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 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 ?
