Within the Skies of the Heavenly Divine Realm, a man sat atop a cloud and before him, stood five children each with their own disposition similar to the rare elements of the world.

The children were the five Transcendent Spirits given an identity by the path of fate's power as famous beings of the previously Paradise Realm, with a terrifying Bloodline of Fate.

They were considered descendents of terrifying Ancient beings, and children at the highest spectrum of favors. And that, was just their innate potential as of yet.

They were Luxor, the Transcendent Spirit of Light. Meta, the Transcendent Spirit of Metals. Ning, the Transcendent Spirit of Lightnings. Willow, the Transcendent Spirit of Wood. And Nott, the Transcendent Spirit of Darkness.

The Elemental Quintets of Fates.

They had been playing around on the surface, and made a few enemies. Perhaps not a few, but you understand the gist of things. 'Well, aren't they just still children?' The third path of Enigma thought to itself.

He could not help but look at the five children up and down. They were all boys, and quite cute in their own rights. Especially with the special elemental effects making up their entire constitutions.

But their cuteness aside, their thought process was not cute. In fact, it was the furthest thing from cute according to the third path.

"So, to get this straight, you want my protection while you attempt to help your older brother ascend in power?" The third path of Enigma inquired, just to make sure he was understanding these little guys.

"...."

And they nodded amidst their silence, prompting the Third to sigh. "Look here brats, the fact that yall want to challenge the God of Light is blasphemous, you know? Isn't that literally jumping to fight against the whole Pantheon of Light?" He asked them with concern.

Even as a path designated to push forth the Ragnarok, he still cared about these little guys. Especially as he made them with the purpose of being raised as children of Fate... and one of his paths was the Aspect of Fate.

"...."

But the children just plainly nodded at his words. And the Third Path could not help but sigh once more. Children were quite troublesome, but then again, he saw no problem with their thoughts. Just that the Light Pantheon had six powerful Transcendent Gods.

"Well, it's no more as such, leader." An Ethereal voice drifted around the Void of clouds they hovered within, then accompanied by an extremely beautiful, yet handsome Goddess.

Her bearing was majestic, and the golden chiton dress on her, held perfectly well on her figure. She landed besides him with a smile, and crouched down the pat the head of one of the five children.

Athena made her reappearance within the Heavenly Divine Realm. Moving around too much wasn't her favorite sport, but if it was worth it, she didn't mind doing it.

"Athena. Didn't really expect to see you here." The third path said, a bit of shock hidden within his eyes. From his knowledge, be believed Athena would never associate with any Realm either than the mortal worlds.

"Yeah, I was just strolling around to avoid the Calamity you've caused down there." Athena responded, standing up straight and looking at Enigma with a smile. "But I know you're not in the wrong. Especially as you are not the genuine leader I know, and admire." She added.

And the third path chuckled to himself, as he expected no less from one of the most frightening True Gods of this generation. "That aside, what did you mean by your first statement. Elaborate on that." He said, avoiding confronting her.

And that, brought a smile to Athena. She let out the most brilliant smile she could muster, as she responded to his words, "Simply put, the Light Pantheon is far from its peak. It's strength is not even half of what it previously used to be."

"Far from its peak, you say?" The third path repeated her words in shock. Not having full access to Enigma's skills and True Laws, made it hard to be efficient. If anything, he was just like your average Demigod.

The Realm Suppression of the now Heavenly Divine Realm was too powerful. Even Demigods were treated as mortals, let alone the Origin Gods or the much weaker Deities, but his potential allowed him to be able to fight Origin Gods with not much difficulty.

But even they were still fodder, hence he was unaware of the structures of the many Pantheons of the Realm.

Athena seemed to realize that too, and elaborated on her words. "Two Transcendent Gods were killed by the true Enigma, two others are now preparing to descend in the coming few days, and only two will remain."

"If you use this opportunity wisely, you will only have two Transcendent Gods to deal with. And perhaps once you have obtained your own Skills and True Laws suitable for you, you could possibly take on one of them." She said.

Then seeing as he had a frown of contemplation on his face, she added, "Of course, you will lose as far as I see it. Or perhaps not, but you will die for more times than you expect. Yet for your dear children, you can do that much, can you not?" She inquired with an even brighter smile.

"...."

And the third path looked at her with a blank expression. He loved fighting, true, but he has never died, not even once. Hence he was sure he wouldn't like dying. Especially as the true Enigma had once been in a near death state for years.

And that wasn't nice.

But briefly glancinb behind Athena, at the numerous eyes of hopeful expectation and childish yearning, he couldn't really say no.

Plus, she really put him in a corner with that last statement. 'For my children, huh..? Lets just treat them as my own, since I'm still myself at the end of the day.' He sighed, and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

"Sure. I can pretty much die a couple of times for this little guys. But what if the descending two Transcendent Gods ascend again? Or perhaps the other Pantheons join them?" He then inquired with a frown.

It would be problematic otherwise. Having two Transcendent Gods to deal with would be more than enough trouble, let alone a number greatly exceeding that number.

"No worries. Once all my chess pieces are in place, I'll lock out the paths to the higher Realms, and create a perfect platform to end the Ragnarok, and begin the next Era. Just trust in me, leader." Athena said, once more playfully rubbing the heads of the five boys.

And this time around, they were more proactive when being patted, as they knew that this amazing woman was on their side. That this aunt was amazing!!

"Plus, the other Pantheons will not do anything against the Spirit race. Especially so, as they know of these children's special Bloodline, of your great prowess, and the support being the Spirit race. So just go all out." She added once more, with a hidden smile on her lips.

'Ultimately, the Pantheon of Light will be no more. The Dark Pantheon is almost destroyed, and the Monster Pantheon will be spread apart... And, I still have that little transmigrator and sbondabed daughter of Abomination on my side.' She thought.

"Alright. I'll see what happens. But first, I'll have to communicate with the sixth path to give me an identity. Until then, let's relax." The third path said, sitting down in more contemplation.

"Mhm. Please do that. You still have around seven days before the descent of Transcendent Gods will take place. And fourteen more days before I can truly begin implanting my ideas." Athena nodded, giving the boys a small hug, then leaving.

She left a deep mark on each of them, as their hearts were briefly satisfied at the warmth of a mother-figure. And the third path could see through their longing for a mother's love. 'Well this is troublesome.' He thought to himself.

He had no intention of looking for a woman, hence they will have to be satisfied with small and occasional visits to Athena. Or 0erhaps, he can just dump them on someone else more responsible.

Perhaps the path of fate? He seems awfully responsible. He thought, looking at the five children in front of him, who also looked back at him as well. Five pairs of eyes, against a single pair of eyes.

"...Do you all want to have a talk? How about you tell me about your experience down there? Your likes?" He asked to disperse the sorounding awkwardness, and an attempt to be a responsible person.

Yet he didn't expect the five boys to be interested in his suggestion. Their eyes sparkled in great luminosity, and they began chirping like a bunch of chicks gathering for lunch. They were loud, but not annoying.

'This... is quite adorable. I'm starting to like these little guys.' The third path thought, already listening to their words with a subconscious smile of joy on his face.

Perhaps such a life was not bad.
