Dawn's Destiny

Power Granted By Gods ~ Chapter 143

"What do you say?"

"What do I say?! WHAT DO I SAY!?" Magnus asked in disbelief. He stood there staring at Zehira as he held tight on him. "Yes... granted me all the power you have within you. I want to make sure the Exalt will die and with your power as well as the cards... I will be unstoppable."

Zehira laughed, "Very well kid, I can't wait for the dangerous things you will do with my power." Magnus laughed as he witnessed Zehira start granting him power through his mouth. The blood kept on being transferred as Magnus watched as his body was granted the power.

Magnus laughed, "Yes... yes... give me more! MORE POWER!! AHAHAH!! AHAAHAHA!!" Zehira kept transferring his power to Magnus until he was finally done. Magnus fell onto the ground and smiled down at himself. The swirls were gone, he had gleaming eyes and a snake's tongue. He was just like Zehira now, there didn't seem to be a way to stop him.

Zehira laughed, "I guess this makes you and me, father and son. How do you like that?" Magnus grabbed his playing cards and stared at them. He pulled the ace of spades playing card as he chuckled for a moment. He looked toward Zehira as he continued to chuckle.

"I do like that idea..." Magnus laughed as he looked at Zehira. Then he witnessed Zehira transforming. Magnus watched as Zehira revealed his human form. He had white hair, a snake's tongue, a snake's tail, and he had snake eyes as well. He and Magnus looked basically the same.

Zehira sighed, "You and I don't look too different. The difference is I have a lot more snake features than you do. However, that doesn't matter. Did you decide to follow my outfit?" Magnus stood there in silence as he looked down at his deck of cards.

"I had no idea you looked like this, I just decided what fit me the best and thought this was the best outfit," Magnus replied. Zehira smiled as he placed his hands on Magnus' cheek. "Father Zehira?" He seemed soothed by Zehira's presence. Him being here made things a whole lot better for him.

Zehira sighed, "There's just something about you that makes me want to second guess myself. However, I shouldn't let something like this get to my head. It doesn't help with my young beauty..." Magnus stood there in confusion before realizing what Zehira was. He was a demigod but... how old was he to be exact?

"How old are you? Like in god years since you're a demigod based on the books,"

Zehria laughed, "Finally! Someone who pays attention to the stories that are written about me! I am 12,000 years old and I was created as a half creation of Milord Midnight. He took very good care of me until he was murdered by Dawn... that disgusting woman..."

"I see... so you're a creation that was made by Midnight all those years ago?" Magnus questioned. Zehira nodded as he looked at himself in the mirror. "What are you doing?" He walked backward for a moment as Zehira continued examining himself in the mirror.

"I'm just looking at how absolutely stunning I am! Look at my natural beauty! I haven't seen my human form in such a long time I do feel incredibly powerful," Zehira laughed. Then he turned to Magnus.

Magnus sighed, "You do look quite incredible your honor." Magnus bowed down to Zehira as he looked at him. Zehira didn't know what to say. So he decided to gently pat Magnus on the head. Zehira smiled wickedly while staring down at Magnus, afterwards he looked up.

"You have done so much for me, it's only logical for you to be granted the strength of mine," Zehira laughed. Magnus stood there quietly as he took off his gloves. Then he looked back at Zehira. "Ahah! Look at this! How did I manage to stay so young after all this time? I look like a young 18-year old boy..."

Magnus sighed, "You do your honor. However, I just... need to bring something up to you."

"Something up to me? Is it more about the traumatic experience your parents left you?" Zehira questioned as he walked over. Magnus shook his head and took a deep breath.

Magnus replied, "This is... a lot more serious than that." Zehira looked at him in shock as Magnus held tight onto his other arm. He looked down at himself as Zehira just seemed absolutely stunned by everything. How could anything be more serious than the trauma Magnus endured?

"How in the world is there something more serious than your trauma?" Zehira slammed his foot onto the ground as Magnus slightly jumped. He looked at him in disbelief before backing down again. "I apologize, dear child... what is that?"

Magnus explained, "It's just... this is something I've been hiding away for such a long time now... I have to tell you Father Zehira." Zehira looked at him while slowly smiling at Magnus. Magnus stood there in silence as Zehira then lifted up his chin for a slight moment.

"I'm flattered you considered me! Why is this the case? You're usually talking about your sad past..." Zehira questioned. Magnus looked at his red eyes before taking one huge deep breath.

Magnus replied, "You'll understand..." Then he proceeded to whisper something to Zehira's ear.
