It was even possible to see Nyx and her family on the ceiling.

James relaxed for a few seconds and then stood up and spoke:

"I guess you\'re right, after all, it\'s not like it happened. I was stupid, I was scared."

James seemed to accept what had happened too easily as if he was using this positivity to escape, but it was enough for the three holy beings.

Chronos scratched his head and thought that James would be more concerned about what had happened and wanted to leave, after hugging Nyx and stroking Moros\' hair he left Mount Olympus in a flash, he would be back here later of course, it would be a feast for James after all.

-----

When Nyx and Moros took James to the other Chaos-Borns, the group began to talk and have fun, James\' fatigue had officially disappeared, and on the contrary, everyone started to enjoy the fun. Even Chronos and Ra had joined in.

Nemesis did not leave James\' side for a second, it was clear that the two had a very strange relationship. Even if the laughter of Philotes and Apate occasionally drove Nemesis mad, she still kept her mouth shut, clearly not wanting to look bad to James.

"So, tell me what your life was like in your world before you came here," Erebus said suddenly, and with that Nyx\'s hand landed hard on Erebus\' back.

"SLACK!"

A very thin sound echoed through the room and Erebus shut up, but James didn\'t seem to mind.

"It\'s a simple story, sir, lose family members, have your lover leave you because you don\'t have any money and you\'re sure she\'s cheating on you, blah, blah, blah, blah, classic stuff," James said suddenly and Erebus shook his head, remembering that he had heard the story before, it was a very silly thing to do.

"But don\'t you feel sad? Don\'t you hate death? Maybe you have a grudge against the gods of death? Very possible no?"

When these words appeared on the left side of the table, everything became a little strange, it was Thanatos himself who spoke them.

"Do you know, master Thanatos, you are the fourth of my favourite gods?" James said, and Thanatos, hearing this, asked "Why?" with great curiosity, and James said the following words:

"My mum once told me that when I asked her why death was so painful, only my hamster had died. Kinda funny yeah?"

James seemed to catch his breath after these little words, but the peace on his face was evident.

"One day a woman was in the prime of her life and unfortunately she was killed in a car accident. Staring at the shadow of death and the shadow of life that followed her, the woman did not want to disappear without satisfying her curiosity."

The gods around and especially the Chaos-Borns began to listen to James with rapt attention.

"Oh death itself I ask you, why are you so bitter when life is so sweet?" said James and looked at Thanatos.

"And what did death say?" Thanatos asked with great curiosity.

"Death approached the woman gently, then lifted her humble body and began to carry her like a princess. Then he brought her in front of the most beautiful view and showed her life itself. Then he said these words:

Life always lies. When you are born, you cry and grow up, learn the language of the country you stay in, make friends and enjoy your life. Poor or rich, you always know how to savour something. You jump from side to side as if nothing will ever end. Life is full of lies. It shows you happiness, joy, family, friends, love, passion and so much more."

James was silent for a few more seconds after these words and after drinking water from the glass on the table, he discovered the curiosity of those around him, then he continued to explain with a chuckle:

"Death is pain. It shows the inevitable. A painful, sad, maddening and disgusting experience that you can never escape. I am old, young lady, older and more tired than you can imagine, older than everyone, including the creator of this universe, and one day I will reap even him."

After these words, he stopped again and looked at Nyx and said, "Even the gods will not escape death, there is only me and someone else with absolute power, you would not recognise me even if I told you."

When this speech was over Thanatos couldn\'t take it anymore and pulled up a chair and sat down, he didn\'t seem to think that the speech would interest him so much.

Chronos instantly realised what James was trying to do and got angry, but he still had to wait until everyone had dispersed, James looked like he was going to be in a lot of trouble.

After he had finished speaking, James turned to Thanatos again and said, "Now back to your question. Yes, perhaps I am angry and resentful of death, but to tell you the truth, I don\'t care. My parents may have died painfully, but even if they survived that accident, they would have had a bad life, so it is better for me to think that they are in heaven."

With that, the night was over, everyone, including the Chaos-Borns, dispersed, and James was left alone with Nemesis. At that moment, as expected, Chronos was standing in front of James.

Knowing his mistake, James stood up and after asking Nemesis for permission, he left with Chronos, he was going to have a terrible headache.
