The Unwanted Legacy

Ch-19: the wierdo giants

Nico was asleep now, and I was lonely. My mind wasn't the sharpest of all, but it wasn't the dumbest of all. Why do I even bother lying? It is the dumbest of all. Anyways, I figured out if Ares wasn't able to break it, we couldn't too, so the only hope of getting out of here was Nico's teleportation abilities known as shadow travel. Since I wouldn't be of much help, just like ninety percent of times, I felt deeply dejected at that. Though my thoughts couldn't reach to point unwanted as I noticed two extremely huge figures approaching us. 

They were only about half as tall as the giant I had met and befriended at Tartarus safe house, Damasen (who told me he was 21 feet tall), but they still obviously glared over my six foot two figure. They both had green eyes contrasting their dark mustard skin with piss-like yellow feet (dang, they had snakes for feet!), the one on the left had purple braided hair, while the other seemed to have long green hair 

"Blimey! We have captured a young titaness, along with the demigod, what the erebus are we going to do about her? She can kill us.", said the one on the right side. 'What the actual fuck was he wearing? A goddamned ballerina tutu along with that awful tiara and white T-shirt, I can't stand the disrespect of the pretty and respectable dress! But wait a minute- titaness? Why did he say titaness?'

I stood quiet, having no idea of what to say to my captors, who had yet to notice that I was all ears to their talk, assuming I was asleep.

"Shut up idiot, she can't defeat us, after all, even Ares couldn't"

"But Dionosyus had."

"It was all luck for him, plus this one is a child, and that too a girl child, I don't expect it possible for her to defeat us."

"With the demigod, she can"

"But the demigod is going to be in a death-like trance soon, as Archne had told us"

"But she's a literal titaness, that too a daughter of Zeus and Aphrodite, she might be able to help the demigod live without that, or maybe even escape by expanding her size, or charmspeak her way out."

"All these youngsters are too dumb to think of actual reasonable solutions as far as I know, and I am pretty sure she doesn't know any of it, does she?" Now I know, idiots, and I thank you for telling me. And now that I think of it, I would've never had these ideas even if I knew how to do any of that shit. I am grateful for the humble giant to make me recall the fact that I am still extremely stupid.

As the conversation continued, I couldn't help but zone out as the heart-to-heart seemed to convert into a meaningless and useless chat, my mind went into the clouds as I thought about how I could escape. It seemed impractical to the point that it was unrealistic for me to expand my own self, that I couldn't even think about what the second thing the green haired giant said. 

And then Nico woke up, with a loud groan.
