2.c. The Lost at Sea (3)

Bored. Dreary. What kind of life is this? Neptune's mind is constantly doomed to dissatisfaction. His daily life that was hit by a monotonous routine made him feel bored. Maybe this kind of life will be coveted by everyone, where you will be pampered and filled with needs every day.

Like any god, every day someone comes to Neptune and rewards him with expensive items. Without pause, and makes Neptune's movements feel limited.

He knew that on this earth he was considered a figure of God. An entity that has more power and is also in power over nature. Although the earth is not the house of the bentala, but he has obligations that he must fulfill here.

But look at the current conditions, how can Neptune be able to carry out his duties if he is treated like a golden bird in a cage? Guaranteed life is not something he wants, Neptune is the sea. He is free to do anything. It should not be confined in a room of worship as it is now, where it just sits and gives blessings to everyone who comes.

"Darts, I want to talk" Neptune said one day to the King.

His higher position than the King made Neptune leave the 'His Majesty' appendage to the man who ruled this land. However, Neptune's attitude was seen as disrespectful and brash for the soldiers and other royal officials. Regardless of the position of Neptune who is the God they worship.

「Say, Your Majesty.」

Their position is reversed at this time. But they must admit that Neptune deserves such a designation.

"What do you mean lock me up in that place? Want to make me die of boredom?" soon Neptune said all the strangeness of his heart.

Darts flabbergasted for a moment. Others complain about the existing policy, is it excessive?

「I'm sorry, Your Honor. But that's a provision. How could you leave that room? How can they beg you for something?」

Gosh darn. Neptune then breathed. Darts' answer was disappointing. He thought, by saying what he felt directly this man would understand.

"You know what I'm complaining about?"

The palace felt trembling. Neptune's mood was again not good. Darts suddenly plopped himself in front of Neptune. Begging her forgiveness.

「Ampun, Your Majesty. Alright, today Your Majesty is free to leave the room. Please don't punish us with your wrath.」

Darts is worried that his country will be destroyed if Neptune gets angry. So he chose to budge before his palace collapsed and followed a series of disasters. His people will blaspheme it all out later.

Neptune smiled triumphantly. He said before stepping outside the palace.

"Good boy, if so I go out first."

After Neptune's death, Darts growled. Although this is the first time it happens in front of him, but what if Neptune later becomes more and more pronounced? His pride as King will fall.

But how do we fight Neptune? Darts termangu. Maybe he will be patient at this time. If Neptune does something beyond the limit, then he will act.

Before he left the palace, Neptune was wearing the clothes of a commoner. She covered her head tightly so that her hair was not visible. Anyone would know clearly who he was when he saw the color of the hair.

As Neptune walked outside (in fact he broke his promise, not for a day but for a week or so), he saw the mistreatment of the masters to their slaves inhumanely. The bentala heart was moved to help them, because he had felt the same way.

"Stop! Don't do that to your children!" Neptune immediately rebuked them and prevented them from beating or mutilating the slaves.

Beyond a doubt, the masters of the slaves looked down on him. It was certain that Neptune did not wear royal clothes, nor did he show his figure clearly.

There was a mocking sound of laughter, even Neptune's ears could catch how they insulted him in such a way. Neptune's eyes began to darken.

"You guys, get the hell out of here." Neptune told the slaves to leave immediately. "HURRY UP!"

They immediately ran away from that place and no longer turned their heads towards Neptune. Meanwhile Neptune.

The weather turned bad and lightning roared. It was as if the sky was angry. No one knows that this is the power of Neptune.

The tremors in his palace made Darts anxious. Did something happen outside of his palace?

「Moreover all that God does?」 gerutu Darts while stepping outside the palace in a hurry.

Once he got outside, the weather was already very bad with the storm hitting. The rain fell so hard. The lightning that struck.

「YOUR HONOR! YOUR MAJESTY!」Darts cried out to his offering.

「Yang noble! Please stop your wrath! Your Majesty!」

That was the end of the Atlantean civilization. If Neptune is considered excessive, you should know that the behavior of people witnessed by Neptune has been very outrageous.

Instead of being conscious and trying to get better, they want to eliminate the existence of Neptune. How does Neptune know? He had seen it first through the water mirror, and a kind of warning to him that the bentala should be careful of the Darts.

After Atlantis was lost in the middle of the sea, what was the fate of Neptune? He went to a place, Santorini when in the present, and there he divided himself in two.

Here's process. Neptune then turned his head and looked straight at the sun above him. Both hands he stretched out on his head and exclaimed.

"O Creator of the Universe! I have sinned for taking away thousands of lives, even innocent ones! Punish me and give me the opportunity to atone for all these sins!"

Suddenly cloudy darkened and muzzled the beauty of the afternoon sun. Replacing it with dark clouds of lightning struck there. A rainstorm fell and flushed the area, then the body was struck by lightning and once the storm subsided, another figure appeared from Neptune.

He had long hair until he reached the blue-colored eyes of the dongker, blood-red eyes, and facial features that seemed not so friendly. Some of the unwanted memories of Neptune were on him, then the figure stepped into the middle of the sea and disappeared there.

This figure was later known as Poseidon. What about Neptune? When Neptune performs the ritual of secession, someone accidentally discovers it and assumes that Neptune performs the ritual of black magic.

Although the secession event was not fully seen by the person, but the news he brought to the local residents was enough to make the residents furious. They also flock to the figure of Neptune who is still on the beach, dragging him to a place and binding him.

Neptune was forcibly awakened with water and whips. But he did not remember anything that happened before he fell on the beach. He only remembered that he had the duty of protecting mankind from the lackeys of the sun.

"Why am I being treated like this?" neptune did not understand.

"Why did you say?" the voices of the people who were swarming looked violent, and their gazes were so angry. "You will bring destruction to our land!"

Neptune gasps. Did ya? What has he done?

"What do you mean? I didn't do anything." Neptune seems very confused.

I heard one of them grieving and started telling stories.

"Fourty years ago, you came to our city. Then you smash it without further ado! I was one of the survivors of that incident and you're still dodging?!"

Neptune was surprised to hear it and he began to wonder. Is it true that he killed people? Has he committed a great sin?

As Neptune fell silent, the men were ignited by the old man's story.

"Before you came, all the strange events never happened! We believe that you're a black magic user and should be put to death!"

Death penalty? Is this the end of his life story?

"DRAW IT TO THE GALLOWS!"

"YES, KILL HIM!"

Without a chance to fight, Neptune has been dragged to a place with a lot of stairs. The place faces towards the sea, and at the top there is a circular rope tied to a crossbar.

The rope was then looped around Neptune's neck and he was set up in a large wooden box.

"There's a last word?" asked the executioner without mercy to the bentala.

"I just want you to forgive me. Whatever, I will do as redemption. When this becomes a way out, I will accept it with pleasure."

"EXECUTE THE DEATH PENALTY!" people started screaming.

The executioner kicked the wooden box and Neptune's neck became entangled. Stuffy. Can't breathe. Slowly, he began to lose consciousness.

Unexpectedly, lightning struck Neptune's body. Creating a fire around the place of the death penalty. Make the body hanging in a charred condition.

The citizens thought that the history of the blue-haired man was over. However, they did not know that Neptune was not dead. He's just asleep. Because planetary embodiment cannot die, except in the hands of celestial beings like him.

Then the body was left hanging there for many years, until the place was closed to the public. Even until the era changed. The story of Neptune who raged and destroyed cities and civilizations was drowned in time.
