“So, finally tired of hiding like an insect Ares? I would have thought better of the dunce of war.” Ephus stated a small smile coming to his lips. ‘Good,’ he thought, ‘Ares is mad as hell.’

“We shall see just who is the dunce after I finish destroying you!” Ares stated brandishing a black sword.

“Ah, so I see that you are hiding behind a weapon, like a true dunce of war,” Ephus stated causing Ares’ face to grow even redder with anger.

Ares laughed with sadistic glee as he swung the black sword, producing an ear-splitting shriek. He then started to advance upon Ephus.

Ephus looked at the six gods sitting at the table, he then waved a hand making all of them vanish. Nodding he calmly turned back to face a startled Ares.

“It is no matter, once I have taken you, I will find all of them easily enough.” Ares boasted as he again stalked toward Ephus.

With a sigh, Ephus shook his head as he drew the green sword. A thin smile appeared on Ares’ lips.

“So, you have the sister sword, that is good with the both of them I will be unstoppable.”

Ares again boasted.

Ephus parried the first few swings from Ares, whose smile was growing larger by the second.

Ephus was about to raise the sword to block again when everything seemed to freeze. Then before him, the same Egyptian female appeared his hand around her wrist.

“Godling! You must attack, my brother will kill you, taking all that you are.” The green-clothed female stated.

“As I stated before, I will not use you that way. I will defend, I will not attack as long as you feel that way. I have not claimed you nor will I; if you choose to help me so be it. If you do not then I guess that eventually, Ares will win.” Ephus told the shocked female.

“I believe him sister, never before have I felt one as truthful as him.” They both turned to see a rather tall, well-muscled male with dark hair, wearing dark clothes. Ares’ hand was around his wrist, much like Ephus’s was around the females.

“BROTHER!” The female yelled as Ephus walked toward the male letting the two embrace.

With tears in her eyes, the female released her brother turning toward Ephus.
