The God of War
Studying the Book of Life
"The fragment of the soul of the Star God that has been born on his new body will provide perfect and extraordinary strength that will not be defeated easily. Especially if the soul fragment from the Star God has completely mastered his new body and takes over the new body that has been born. Then he will turn into a demon completely. He will not be able to control himself anymore and will only always thirst for blood. That's when the world will again be on the verge of destruction like a thousand years ago."
Zhou muttered as he read the life book about the eternal body of the Star God Demon.
"The eternal body of the Star God will never be able to die. His soul will always remain eternal. But by separating and breaking some fragments on his body and then sealing the main fragment/core fragment in a different space of time with other body fragments, then the body will become weak. That's when it's time to seal the main shards."
Zhou was still reading the book of life very carefully and meticulously.
"The core soul fragment would be extremely difficult to find. Because his high-level illusions were one of his best techniques for his defense and strength. But actually the core fragments will be very different from other fragments. Only knights who were intelligent, skilled and had high spiritual power would be able to find that small gap."
Zhou sighed and still read the book of life very seriously.
"Searching for the core shards behind the high-level illusions belonging to the Star God Devil that was born on Zeus' body? Hmh ..." Zhou again thought hard with a frown and then began to read the continuation back.
"There's actually another way to stop the chaos that has been wrought by the shards of souls from the Star God Devil. That is, finding the core of his soul and providing eternal tranquility for him by passing through the portal of the world of darkness that will connect directly with him. But this method is quite dangerous and quite difficult because it passes through a dangerous portal. Some spiritual stones and some ancient objects that possessed spiritual power would also be indispensable for awakening his soul core." he muttered continuously reading the book.
"Eternal memories? This method is more useful for the world in the future. Because it will no longer be possible for his soul to be reborn, right? But using a dark portal is also quite risky because it has to pass through the bottom of the sea of death. Hhm ... could Seiryu take me to that place? Really two choices are quite difficult .." murmured Zhou still seemed to think hard.
."Kyaa .. baa .." his little son suddenly started babbling and rubbed the book of life.
After being silent for a long time, Zhou finally decided to re-learn it another time.
"My little son. Thank you for helping dad this morning." said Zhou sincerely rubbing Helios' thin hair. "alright. Looks like I'll learn more next time." he added shutting back the book of life and immediately keeping it back.
"My son. Later when you are an adult, you should be able to use your strength properly and correctly. You were born with a great and wonderful gift. With the elements of fire and sun, you can control the entire fire in this world."
Said Zhou warmly staring at Helios. But after a while his warm smile began to fade, as if something was interfering with his mind at this time.
"Hopefully we can always gather together .." he added softly and began to be remembered by the figure of his mother who had never been known by him.
The father always said that his mother had died since Zhou was a child. But he never told Zhou where the tomb where the mother was buried.
Actually, this is quite confusing for him, and still a mystery for him until now. It was as if his father was hiding something from Zhou.
The next day Zhou again attempted to open the entire book of heirlooms and powers. She opened up according to what Suzaku had told her before.
At dawn, Zhou sat back in his special room. Some rapid movement through his fingers gave rise to a flow of spiritual power from within his body which he focused on his two hands.
He began to extend his hand forward and raise it towards the window that was opening. A moment later some water droplets of dew were attracted by it like a magnetic field.
Then Zhou pointed it at the root of the padlock wrapped around the book of all heirlooms and powers that were hovering right in front of him. Zhou used a few drops of dew that had been draped with his spiritual power to open the root padlock.
Instantly the root of the padlock wrapped around the book began to emit a dazzling light and slowly began to move according to its groove, until finally the padlock of the book opened perfectly.
The heirloom book and the whole power of it could probably be opened by some people. But not everyone can make the contents in it visible. It is the book that will choose whom it wills to see the contents in it.
The words from Suzaku began to cross back in his mind were very real. Slowly Zhou began to carefully open the dark greenish-colored book. It felt so hopeful that the book showed him the contents in it.
But not everything remains the same. The book contained only empty sheets like the book of life in the beginning.
"Do you have to have Hellios? The book opened and revealed the contents inside after I used my spiritual energy as well as Helios' fire energy. Okay .. Let's try to do it. Happ ..."
Zhou returned to moving quickly using both fingers. He drained his spiritual energy back along with those few drops of dew. Yet this time he took out a bit of the fire energy of immortality that he had obtained from Seiryu just a moment ago.
Miraculously, the book began to reveal the contents inside. Like the book of his previous life, this book of all heirlooms and powers is now beginning to contain several golden kanji letters that fill each sheet by sheet.
Zhou's smile began to be engraved thinly adorning the handsome face that always looked reassuring. And he immediately read and studied in the chapter heirloom Kirasodo, the immortal heirloom of the legendary Star God Devil. The heirloom was again forged by Zeus at the expense of his left eye to make it even stronger.
But after reading a few pages, Zhou's forehead began to wrinkle. He found absolutely nothing to defeat Kirasodo's heirloom.
"Undefeated? How could it be like this? There's not a single small gap to defeat him?" murmured Zhou softly and still trying to keep looking for Kirasodo's heirloom weaknesses.
But suddenly Zhou found something like a small note at the bottom of the book.
