Kronos was still among the flowers, but unlike the others, he was watching his environment. He was watching the bird that landed on his shoulder, despite its huge, frightening size. He was watching the phoenix hovering around him so that he would not be disturbed. He was learning. Learning what kind of hearts monsters have. He was learning about their past and their future. He was on his way to becoming King of the Monsters.

"It is time, Kronos."

Kronos turned his head at the voice and looked up at the phoenix in the sky.

"Time for what?"

But the Phoenix did not answer. It just grabbed Kronos's arm collar with his mouth and tried to pull him into the forest. In the past, Kronos would never have gone into a forest with a phoenix, but now he knew that this phoenix could blow him to death. And now he trusted them.

Cronus left the King's Garden without anyone noticing. Then he left the city and went into the forest.

Kronos was walking through the forest and he had his axe with the blue bangs on his back. As the phoenix moved forward, he followed and they went deeper and deeper into the forest.

As time passed, more and more animals were moving with them. Kronos was caught between the monsters. But he was not afraid. Step by step, he began to move towards the stronger and stronger group.

Finally, when all the creatures stopped, Kronos stopped too, and when he looked around, he couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

Around Kronos were fairies, Hellhounds, one-eyed creatures, and all sorts of creatures from the stream beside them. All the monsters had come to greet something.

The phoenix traveled a little further and came upon a cave. The aura emanating from the cave was enough to terrify Kronos. He had even forgotten how to breathe.

"What the hell is this place? Why is this-"

"Don't say any more. Soon you will know everything."

Before Kronos could speak, the sound of footsteps coming from the cave caught his attention. As he turned his gaze toward the cave, he locked eyes with the old wolf who was staring at him. The wolf was limping and had a strange eye patch over one eye. The other eye was green, unlike normal wolves. Even Kronos found it hard to resist the urge to bow to the wolf's aura.

"Hello Kronos, my name is Fenrir."

***

When Kronos realized he was facing Fenrir the Doombringer, he did not know what to say. He was facing the holy beast who had swallowed Odin.

"Son, it is true that I killed Odin, but not at this time. It is only a prophecy among humans. As you can see, I was not killed by Vidar either. What killed me was much more powerful."

"I am Fenrir! Fenrir the Godslayer! I am Fenrir the Dimension Devourer! I am the creature who decapitated Odin! And I am the one who has killed countless gods like him! I am the Immortal Dragon's best friend and fallen Ancestor if you can call me that."

"First I will tell you my story. Perhaps you should get to know me this way. "

"I was one of the only ones at the top. In the war of the Gods and the Ancestors, the hearts of so many Gods fell into my stomach. I killed and destroyed and terrorized. But I was on a dangerous path, my control was slipping away from me as time went by. I became more and more unconscious, more and more... monstrous."

"In the end, I attacked my one and only friend. My eye was only covered in blood, but my human friend still couldn't kill me. He did the only thing he could. He cursed me and waited for someone else to kill me."

"Because of the curse, I was trapped in my Beast body, and my power was reduced to the weakest of the Levels. Opening Sky....."

"But after time passed, the Immortal Dragon disappeared. At the same time, when the Ancestral Leader was poisoned and killed by his children, the Gods attacked and killed all the Ancestors."

Stolen novel; please report.

"I, on the other hand, began to regain my strength and was able to advance to the level of the Immortal Born a few Billion years later, but it was on that day that someone else realized I was out of control."

"It was only Half Step Sky, but somehow, I don't know how he came to the Ancestral Realm and fought me. He was the greatest genius I have ever seen. He was young and very much like someone I admired. And the man who made me the way I was. I soon realized who he was: son. His son."

"That day I learned the name of the man who cursed me once more. He was strong and one of the rarest people who used his power for good. Who was he? He was Poseidon, god of the sea."

"At least that's what he told me, but I don't believe he was a god. How could he be?! Him! Him! - Forget it!"

"After Poseidon cursed me, I lost my strength once again, but this time I wasn't too weak, but there was a big problem. I was a half-step Open Sky and because of the old age of my body, I was in no condition to battle with the Skies. I could not enter the levels again."

"I fell on this island and when I realized where this island was, I wanted to take advantage of it, but a young man had found this island. He had reached the 6th step, which was unexpected for his age, and he had his master Poseidon with him. I saw Uranus there for the first time and it made me wonder who Poseidon was. Or rather, what he was trying to do."

"I lived here for years. Millions of years. When Uranus left, this time the six Guardians settled on the island. Poseidon was still near the island, I could feel him."

"I realized Poseidon was gone 600 years ago, and when I wanted to get out, the 6 Guardians and the reincarnations of Uranus had reached the 6th step and they were all incredibly powerful. Even if it was just the Guardians, I couldn't resist."

"I was tired of waiting. I finally started looking for ways to calm myself down. If I could control myself, I wouldn't have to hide anymore."

"200 years ago, in the Battle of the Sky, the island fell and I had to hide even more. Then the Guardians and all those like him who were Step 6 died. There was one young man left alive. He was dangerous. His Purified Potential was very dangerous and after a few centuries, he could come back like the others. Purified Potential was something that only the number 1 geniuses of the Ancestral Realm possessed, and this young man, only 300 years old, had a purified body. There was only one thing going through my mind. Danger!"

"Just as I was about to kill that young man, there he was again. Poseidon blocked me and sent me back to my cave. "

"A hundred years later, there was finally no one left on the island and I wandered around. I talked to those who had died in the sky war and tried to find out if there was a way to keep me under control, but they didn't know anything I was close to going out of control again, but this time what I was going to attack was directly against the laws of the Universe. The power of the Universe would have no mercy on me. If I did that, my soul would be condemned to suffer in hell alongside all the gods I had killed. "

"At that time, a man named Randal came along. He fought a long battle with me, but of course, he defeated me when I was so close to death. "

"Randal was a Kingslayer. He was the last Kingslayer to retain consciousness and the last person who could help me. "

"He saved me. But I ran out of time. 100 years later, I made a decision."

Kronos listened to Fenrir's life and didn't know what to say. The stronger he got, the more complicated life became. It was hard for him to understand what was happening here.

Fenrir stepped forward and pressed his forehead against Kronos' forehead. Kronos, for some reason, allowed it. It was as if his body knew Fenrir would do nothing.

"You are my heir now, Kronos."

***

Soon Fenrir was ready to transfer himself into Kronos' body. Fenrir could no longer live. So he would transfer himself into Kronos' mind and live inside Kronos with his soul. Kronos looked at Fenrir, who was breathing deeply beside him. He had agreed, knowing it would give him unimaginable power, but it was more than that. His mind was already clouded and drifting in a strange fascination. Randal was the only person on the whole island who could get him out of this dangerous situation, but he wasn't going to do it.

Fenrir had tricked Kronos. He had poisoned him and clouded his mind.

"Master, are you angry?"

"Depends on what you mean."

"Are you angry with the Immortal Dragon or Poseidon for cursing you?"

Fenrir stood for a moment as if thinking. Then he looked sad.

"I am angry with the Immortal Dragon, angry at him for the harm he did to himself to curse me. I don't know what happened to him, but whatever happened was my fault. "

When Kronos saw Fenrir's sad face, he smiled happily and took the Doombringer in his arms. This horrible beast was now dying and quite small.

"There is no need to be angry, master. We will have the most fun adventures with you. I will show you everything you have not seen in this time, and believe me, you will have fun. And you don't have to regret it after this. I will protect my friends no matter what. What happened in your time will not happen in mine. "

Fenrir was surprised by Kronos's words. He was about to deny it when he saw the smile on Kronos's face. He was pleased with himself and confident. Suddenly a light began to emanate from Fenrir and Kronos. The white light gradually covered half the city. At that moment, when Fenrir looked at Kronos' face, he felt a completely different emotion.

'Even in such a body you have such a heart. Maybe that's what I was missing. You were happy and I was sad. I hope one day you won't be sad either because I can feel the coming war.
