[Olympus]
Every Olympian looked awestruck with their mouths opened in shock or confusion, their eyes solely resting on Zeus with answers.
They had just been affected by the blast that had shook the underworld, the blast wasn't a blast.
It was a lightening blast.
"Zeus, you are definitely hiding something!"
Poseidon snapped, he had been in Olympus before Hades sealed the gates and he was trapped with them.
Zeus who looked weary only looked without answering.
"Bright !! You aren't the Zeus I once know you as, you have faced gods who control lightening like you and none of their lightening manipulation which got harnessed from you had effects on you"
Poseidon stopped as he advanced towards Zeus.
"This Wills harnessed his powers from you from the first time and it took a deadly toll on you and now it had happened again, his control on lightening is having its toll on you again!"
Poseidon continued, his trident glowing at every seconds, the Olympian athletes had a look of agreement as they all turned their faces on him.
Even Hera or Athena couldn't help but question Zeus with their eyes.
"I don't want to hear any of these talks... Never!"
Zeus roared, lightening flashing in his eyes with his voice carrying a wind of authority..
"No one dares go against you but not me, not even now that you are weak could you take me on! Tell us what's happening"
Poseideon roared back, this time around, he walked like he was stalking Zeus who still remained seated on the throne, Zeus seemed to have a second thought as he slowly exhaled.
"I can give out a theory about how Zeus gets weary after harnessing his powers"
Athena spoke up for the first time since the conversation started. Her eyes falling on every Olympians, Ares, Hercules, Hermes... Artemis, who is was clear she disliked.
"just like Zeus who over ruled Chronos, Zeus had showed to tap from the same power sources like chronos, that's one of his reason being able to defeat Chronos... Except Wills was his son, that's the only way he could get weary when Wills harness lightening powers because they would be able to tap from the same power core"
Athena explained and all eyes were on Zeus to reveal the truth.
"Yes, he is my son!"
Zeus voiced out.

[Underworld]
There was death glare silence between Hephaestus and Hades, Hades busted into laughter that caused waved in the earth core.
"You think I am gonna have to believe that Wills isn't dead? I just killed him with the dagger of death!"
Hades roared amidst his laughter and Hephaestus frowned, he had expected a miracle to happen: like Wills should mysteriously appear.
"If I were y..."
Hephaestus couldn't complete his words as he felt a seering pain in his jaw, One moment, he had tried to converse with Hades and the next moment, he was flying backwards as Hades had just punched him before he could blink.
He hit a stone rock and doubled over, he jumped on his feet and charged back at Hades who looked like he was toying with him.
He gathered his speed and remoulded his fists to a giant war hammer and smashed it on Hades but Hades held the punch with a single arm and repelled him back with a punch from the other free arm.
Hades was using the speed of Hermes and the strength of Hercules to his own will.
Hephaestus groaned as he slowly got to his feet and made a defensive formation, he knew trying to go for the attack would be pointless.
Hades smirked and advanced towards Hephaestus, he knew what Hephaestus was trying to do.
He moved at light speed towards Hephaestus who appeared weak and suddenly vanished.
Hephaestus blinked, not losing his guard as he tried to know the move Hades was trying to pull.
He was too slow to see what came for him, Hades resurfaced beneath the ground with a jab kick clearly on the jaw of Hephaestus.
Hephaestus flew towards the dark spooky sky but Hades appeared above him and sent a crushing kick to his abdomen and Hephaestus couldn't do anything but fall helplessly to the ground, too weak to stand.
He couldn't fight what he can't see.
"You are a lesser god and you should have ran when you had the chance!"
Hades spoke up victoriously as he towered above the God of forge who was lying helplessly on the ground.
Suddenly, the realm thundered and sparked while the ground began to shake and crumbles of dust rose up while they defiled gravity, everywhere became white suddenly that Hades couldn't understand what was happening.
He looked up slowly as he knew the light was from the sky and he gasped.
"Zeus couldn't have broken through the seal, who then is this son of light that carries wrath?"
