Gods Among Us (Part 9)
[Point of view of Uxas]
Uxas was a new god who traversed space in search of something called the Anti-Life Equation, a power that could strip any entity of free will. With this power, he aimed to rule not only the New Gods but the entire universe. Uxas conquered and enslaved every planet he encountered, always in pursuit of the equation. However, Earth was a planet vastly different from the others, as it was home to many gods, including Zeus, whose power equaled his own. Therefore, he decided to employ a different tactic this time - he would infiltrate Earth to discover the weakness of the gods.
During his stay on Mount Olympus, he noticed that the greatest weakness of these gods was their pride. As Uxas gathered information, he came across the ancient Titans of this world, who, according to old tales, were killed by a mysterious figure called the Immortal. By seeking more information from some gods, he managed to learn about what happened centuries ago. Still, he decided to use his ship to scan the planet for this being. That was when he stumbled upon the Watchers' system, and with his technology, he swiftly invaded their system, obtaining all the information he needed without their knowledge. While reading the data about Inmo, the ancient god of humanity, he became intrigued by him. Perhaps this individual had something to do with the Anti-Life Equation, and since he had managed to kill almost all the Titans, Uxas saw a chance to eliminate the gods. A plan began to take shape in his mind, but it seemed to lack one final piece. Uxas discovered that Gaia, an ancient entity feared by all, had cursed Zeus in the form of a prophecy. Now he sought this information; after many attempts, he finally unraveled the prophecy, and the last piece of his plan was at last in his hands.
[Point of view of Zeus]
In recent years, my hatred for that immortal has grown. Thanks to him killing the Titans, humans have become increasingly rebellious, not showing respect for us gods. Can't they see we are superior? Some time ago, a being named Uxas came to Earth, bringing with him some gifts. At first, we were on high alert, but after so many years, we realized he could be trusted; his advice was always precise. Today, he brought a present he called the "Mother Box," which could manipulate energy and matter, enhancing the power of a god wielding it. I was in ecstasy, devising plans and strategies on how to use this new weapon. Gaia may be right about her prophecy, but "I will never give up the throne." Zeus whispered to himself, as his shadow covered the entire wall of the throne room, extending like a mantle.
[Point of view of Uxas]
It was easy to convince Zeus that I was on his side, and it was even easier to plant the idea in his mind that a rebellion of humans would arise soon. A few whispers here and there were enough; he just needed a weapon that could give him a chance to defeat Inmo, and that's exactly what I gave him. Soon, his pride would override rationality, and he would go after Inmo. All I had to do was observe the battle and make my move when the right moment came. I had no fear of Zeus; the Mother Box I gave him would never accept him as its true master. With a single thought, it would turn against him, and when the time came, I would be the sole victor of this war, and finally, the Anti-Life Equation would be in my hands.
