Although they had to go against the Sea King to use that portal, but it was still the safest option for the time being. They could try other portals, but they weren\'t aware where those portals were going to lead then.

"It seems we first need to regain the Central World." Aliac agreed with Karyk\'s plan.

As he was on earth, he hadn\'t known that the Central World was taken over. But now it wasn\'t the time to be worried about that. They had to take control of that place.

He asked Gabriel about the number of enemies and their strength, wondering if it was easy to regain control of that place or much harder.

Throughout the night, they went into the details about the plan and what was to come after that.

....

Karyk and the others thought that Ryder was upstairs with his family. None of them realized that he had long disappeared.

After giving a brief explanation to his family to calm them down, he left the mansion with his son Nyx.

At the present moment, he was walking on the deserted land of Egypt. He stood before a pyramid, remembering the last time he had come here, he had gained an inheritance.

However, this time he wasn\'t here for that. The pyramid contained no inheritance at the moment. He had taken it all. But the pyramid was still the most secure place on earth. This was also the place he used as a prison.

"I\'m sure you have a lot of questions," Ryder said, glancing at his son. "It\'s about time I told you some answers."

He placed his hand on the pyramid surface, releasing a few traces of his divinity.

Sensing his divinity, a passage opened inside the pyramid. As they descended into the hidden passage, Ryder began to explain some things to his son.

"I\'m sure you already know that our world is in danger," he said, letting out a sigh. "The danger is far greater than anything before. However, that isn\'t the only thing that I\'m worried about. I\'m also worried about your safety."

"My safety?" Nyx asked, looking at his father. He had only learned about a few things from his father\'s conversation with Karyk.

According to that, there was a special called the Elzeirans that was going to invade their world. From what he heard, their strength was incredible but the bigger problem was their immortality.

Still, he was certain that his father couldn\'t be worried about that. He was sure he could protect the earth. But why was he worried about his safety then?

The stairs ended as Ryder reached the lowest depth of the floor.

The dark hallway stretched out before him, illuminated only by flickering torches mounted on the stone walls.

Ryder ventured further into the unknown, stopping only when he reached inside the hall at the end.

"This..." Entering the hall, Nyx grew stunned. In front of him, he could see two people that were sitting on the ground, divine chains shackling their wrists to restrict their movements.

"They are still alive?" Nyx asked, his eyes revealed slight happiness along with some concern. The people before them were Caen, the current Ruler of Heaven and Janus, his uncle. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At first, he had thought that his father had killed both of them since they tried to kill him. But they were still alive.

Caen was in deep sleep, possibly induced with magic. Janus was still awake and raised his head, at the sound of footsteps.

His eyes contained no hatred even as he was captured. In fact, he didn\'t know why Ryder had even let them live when he tried to kill his son. Was it really because of the past they shared?

"The remaining two children of fate are staying inside my mansion now," Ryder said, making sure Janus heard him.

"Why are you telling me that? I have already lost." Janus replied, neither showing happiness nor sadness.

At first, he had also wanted to kill Karyk, Gabriel and Nyx, to save Caen. Out of the four children of fate, only one could live. That was predestined. That\'s why he tried to kill Nyx as well. However, he had failed.

He wanted to plead for Caen\'s safety, but he understood that it was impossible. Just as he was about to kill any threat for Caen\'s safety, Ryder also had to do the same for Nyx\'s safety. All four children of fate were at crossroads with each other.

The only difference was that Caen and Nyx at least had a guardian with them who knew about this fate. Karyk and Gabriel were all alone, completely unaware about the fate that was to come.

"Are you going to kill Caen now that you have the opportunity to kill the other two as well?" Caen asked.

He still didn\'t understand why Ryder had let them live. Was he truly going to leave them alive? Was he trying to keep them entrapped for life so that they could live yet never become a threat to Nyx as per fate?

It was certain. If they were all trapped for eternity, they couldn\'t harm Nyx. Unfortunately, Janus knew that it wasn\'t how fate worked.

Ryder didn\'t answer Janus\' question. However, some emotions flickered in his eyes.

He had treated Janus like his brother. He had the help of Janus before he even awakened. It was only because of Janus that he was able to live for that long.

Although Janus was only helping him because Chaos\' soul was resting inside him, but that didn\'t change anything. Janus was a friend... No, he was family.

Even Ryder felt conflicted about this. He knew that he had to kill them for his son. But at the same time, he couldn\'t get himself to do something like that. In the end, he could only entrap them, leaving the decision for later.

He wanted to find a solution to this problem. And if he couldn\'t find any other solution... He didn\'t think about that at that moment.
