157: Silence

Yumoto groaned as he awoke in a gray area. His heart beat was the only thing he heard. He looked around...the last thing he remembered doing was screaming at someone.

He tried to speak again but froze as he looked around. "Epinard?" He called, "Mama?" He looked around as he stood.

"Vesta?!"

"Argent?!"

"Little One, stop this! Scarlet, let go of Yumoto!"

Yumoto gasped and called out for Argent again. He looked around, "I'm scared! I don't know where I am!"

Yumoto blinked and he was out of the great room. "What... what happened?"

"Yumoto, rest." Epinard whispered, "Scarlet took over you..."

"I...I was alone...where... where was I?"

"You were right here..."

"I...I wasn't!"

Epinard stroked his hair as the heir was laid down in bed. "Sleep..."

Yumoto nodded and let the silence take him once more.

158: End the Heir

Yumoto looked around as he saw Yukiteru but gasped as his father began screaming at his brother. "Gora! Up the damn protection of your brother or train him more!"

"Papa, Yumoto is safe!"

"SAFE?! YOU CALL BEING ATTACKED IN HIS OWN ROOM, SAFE?!"

"No, papa."

Yukiteru stomped his foot, "Kill the heir, fellow Gods cry! They want your innocent brother killed in cold blood!"

Gora sighed as his father hissed "as the God of Love you are supposed to protect the heir! And you, Hakone Gora, have failed! His Guardians are better protectors than you will ever be!"

"I sealed Hireashi away!"

"Hardly. You did once. He broke free and killed your brother!"

"That was Yuuma and I brought him back!"

"enough. I'm done with this Gora."

159: God of Ending

When Yumoto was born, Gods and Goddesses screamed how the God of Light was destined to be the end of the world.

Many Gods went after the heir during his first showing to prevent this from happening.

Yumoto, the heir, the God of Light had to go...the heir wasn't going to work the Gods claimed...too bad the heir would be as great as the First God of Love.

160: Gone

Gone were the days that Yumoto could be carefree...he was now in training to destroy demons...

Gora never had to do this...only Yumoto has had to.

Yumoto just wanted to be normal... Scarlet made him look crazy. Maybe one day... he'll be a normal boy...

161: God of Happiness

Yumoto hated the God of Happiness...this God...he was a liar. He used his powers to control people.

This God hated the heir as well. The God tried to brainwash mortals and younger God's and Goddess to kill the heir so they could "always be happy".

Yumoto knew one thing...he would never get close to this God. He knew only bad things would come to him if he did.
