Capítulo 4: Chapter 4
"Adrian Wilbur... You, as the Youngest Son of the Goddess Erza, have the right to challenge your Elder Half-sister, Mordrid Gallagher, for the seat in the Divine Council... Do you wish to take up this challenge?" asked a particularly strong looking God with an Aura of a King.
'This must be the council's leader' I thought.
"I do not wish to take up the challenge" I stated.
Murmurs came from the stands and the Gods themselves as each of them began to talk.
The Strong looking God spoke again.
"Silence in the Council Room!" he shouted, causing the room to go silent once again.
He looked back to me a fierce fire in his eyes "Am I to understand that you wish your sister to take on the responsibility instead of you? That you wish to dodge the responsibility and hand it off to your older sister?" he asked.
My mother hearing this, began to talk, angered by his words
"Now hang on Ramethis! I had talked with him about this before entering the council room, he had no wish to dodge responsibility or hand it off to anyone either. He just got here, and as you know Mordrid died young and has been here for a majority of her life, learning and training to take the seat of Creation Goddess, and must I remind you that is practically a tradition at this point that the God of Creation be Female?"
My mothers speech seemed to have angred the God 'Ramethis'
"I am aware of the Traditional ways of Creation, Erza. But I am simply stating facts. This boy is honor bound to take the seat, he would sherk this responsibility to do what? Travel, Learn, Grow Stronger. It is his responsibility to take the seat. And it is yours to make sure the boy knows what is going on, from the look on his face, it is evident, that he has no idea what is going on here..."
Ramethis continues to berate my mother and me.
But after a few more minutes I had had enough.
"If I may say something!..." I yelled at Ramethis "... I may not understand the ways of this place, after all, I was on earth up until this point, unaware of my lineage and this so-called 'Responsibility', so for you to start berating my mother on her ways, when you your self seem to not understand the situation for self, is laughable!" after my short rant, Ramethis and all of the council room went quiet.
Ramethis was silent for a long time, his rage bubbling under the surface seemed to slowly turn to amusement as a smile formed on his face.
"Boy... You amuse me, I will ask you one more question, if you get it right I will accept you choice... But if you get it wrong, you will have to take the seat of Creation God, do you accept?"
"Sure!" I said filled with rage at Ramethis.
But all this went away the moment he asked his question.
"How did you die?" he asked.
My stomach churned and my skin crawled with a unpleasant feeling.
"I... I killed my self... I killed my self to escape the torturous life that I was born into after Mother Left..." I said, shame filling my heart.
More silence filled the room.
My mother's face was dark and you could see tears falling down her cheeks.
Ramethis learned back in his chair "You are correct, I will accept your decision" he said with an evil smile that reminded me of Emily.
After scanning me and confirming that I had Godly Powers, the council disbanded, my mother rushed me out of the council room and into a completely empty room.
I was sat down on a chair that she conjured with the flick of her hand, while she stood in front of me, giving her the high ground.
I expected an earful.
"Why didn't you tell me?!" I imagined her screaming at me.
But what came after the long silence, was much worse.
She cried.
She cried and cried, I hugged her, she hugged me back.
I tried to get her to stop.
And after a few minutes, it seemed to have worked.
She wasn't crying.
But she was mad.
Not at me.
No
At Father and "that bitch ass whore Karen and her slut of a daughter" as she referred to Karen and Emily as.
She ranted, she swore revenge, she even tried to leave and go down to earth to kill them herself, but after I continually stopped her, she asked me something.
"Why are you defending them?!"
"...Becaue if we take revenge... We'll be no better than them" I answered, tears building up behind my eyes.

Mom had calmed down.
And so had I.
We were on our way to Mom's House.
Or at least the place where all of her children were.
As the Gods didn't need anything like sleep, water or food, they only really needed a place for heir children to live, and in the higher plane, Demigods Blood became supercharged, making them similar to the Gods in the aspect that they didn't need food or water. They only needed to sleep occasionally to get rid of mental fatigue.
The higher Plane was set into Regions, some regions had a God in them, some didn't.
Some regions, like the one mom and the others had been living in, had multiple gods.
The region that mom lived in was made to mimic the English countryside, it had sprawling rich green hills a clear blue sky and the occasional sheep.
The 'house' was more like a collection of small cottages, each had a unique and interesting look.
Mom told me that until I was able to use my powers to create my own cottage, I would be staying in hers.
As we approached the small village, a small group of people approached.
Some of them were teenagers that looked my age, maybe older, some of them were full grown adults.
"Adrian... This is you family" my mother said to me, holding my hand with a loving gaze directed towards the people coming towards us.
