"Right, I guess that's another thing that damned troll forgot to tell me," sighed the teen.
"Boy one last thingā¦" said the green clad girl, drawing Issei's attention.
The teen the shudder from the glare she was giving him, "try anything perverted and thou's life is forfeit."
"What do you mean by that?" questioned Issei.
"Thou shalt seeā¦now prepare thyself Issei Hyoudou, thou art going to learn how mad a beast the Chaste Huntress can beā¦"
The four Gods sat at the table in silence as they waited for someone to break the ice, Amaterasu took the time to examine her companions. Zeus had chosen the appearance of a well-built elderly man with a long white build and clad in white robes. His two children, the twins Apollo and Artemis, looked as different as the domains they represented.
Apollo was a muscular young man that had tanned skin with short wavy blonde hair and was clad in what appeared to be some form of brown and red ancient Greek armour, only missing the helm. Seeing her studying him Apollo turned his gaze to Amaterasu ad did the same before nodding, apparently satisfied with what he had found.
The Shinto Goddess then turned to Artemis whom had long white hair and was wearing a long white dress that eventually turned to a shade of orange at the bottom, along with red shoes. However as she studied the Greek Goddess' face she realized that the frown that the two twins were sharing seemed unnatural on her face, as if it would rather turn back into a joyful smile.
"Amaterasu, I must say we were surprised when you said you wanted this meeting. When I sent you that message I didn't expect you to request a personal meeting, least of all with my two children," stated Zeus, snapping the Shinto Goddess from her thoughts.
"The situation has changed Zeus and I think this meeting will benefit all of us," she replied with a sigh.
"Why are Apollo and I here? You didn't seem to care about us last time we asked you," pointed out Artemis whom glared at Amaterasu.
"Tsukuyomi simply didn't tell me, after all you were talking about your deceased champion rising from the void of death, something even we Gods struggle with," explained the Shinto Goddess.
"I see, so that was what had the two of you so riled up," muttered Zeus as he turned to face his children.
Artemis nodded as she folded her hands over the table, "both my brother and I felt something familiar coming from the Shinto territory, at first we thought nothing of it and just dismissed it as our imagination. But then we both heard itā¦the prayer of Divine Protection, neither of us could believe it as we felt our power being summoned by the complaint message."
"You meanā¦" trailed off Zeus as he looked at them in shock.
"There is no doubt father, even though it felt slightly different it was definitely Tauropolos," replied Apollo with a nod.
Amaterasu frowned as she spoke up, "but how does that mean that your champion is alive? Could not the bow have just been found and used by another?"
Artemis just shook her head, "Tauropolos doesn't work like that, by itself the bow is a fearsome weapon capable of destroying most objects with a single arrow. But the bow by itself is unable to create the effect of Phoebus Catastrophe. That ability requires multiple conditions to use, one of which is that the weapon is being used by our champion."
"So we have the Chaste Huntress herself apparently rising from the grave as well as my sonā¦truly the world has gone mad," sighed Zeus.
"Is Heracles really that big of a surprise father?" frowned Apollo, making everyone turn to face him.
"He has already done the impossible twelve times before, who's to say that my brother hasn't done the same again?" shrugged the Greek Sun God.
"You have a point there," said Zeus with a faint smile as Apollo turned back to Amaterasu.
"So why have you wanted this meeting? If Tsukuyomi thought this was nonsense then what has changed? Something must have happened for you to now take us seriously," he frowned.
"The Celts," replied Amaterasu, getting shocked looks from her fellow Gods.
"The Celts? What do Dagda and the rest of those isolationists have to do with this?" asked Artemis.
"Not so isolationist anymore," reminded the Shinto Goddess.
"Indeed, but you still haven't answered the question Amaterasu," replied the Greek Sun God.
"At ease my son, I'm sure our Shinto friend was just about to start explaining herself," calmed Zeus before gesturing for Amaterasu to continue.
The Sun Goddess gave a grateful nod as she began, "shortly before I got your message Zeus, we detected something that should have been impossible in our territory. You are aware of myā¦experience in the human world, yes?"
Getting a nod from the three Gods she continued, "well, after my 'death' as Tamamo, my soul was split into fragments as the humans broke the Killing Stone, thankfully my brothers quickly collected what we thought was all of them."
"Thought?" repeated Apollo.
"Yes, you see we detected someone accessing my territory's Leylines, odd but not that unusual for skilled magicians. However, when we focused on itā¦it felt exactly the same as my own power," informed the Goddess.
"So they missed collecting all your fragments? Is that so unusual?" asked Artemis, only for Amaterasu to shake her head.
"You don't understand, those fragments cannot gain their own sentience it is simply impossible. Let alone have the same authority as myself to let them access the Leylines with my name," explained Amaterasu.
"They only syphoned a small amount of power this time butā¦" the Shinto Goddess trailed off.
"But what if that was simply a test, to find out if the concept could work before putting more effort into taking more of you power?" finished Zeus with a worried expression.
"Exactly," replied Amaterasu.
"If they have found a way to synthesis a God's power, then that would explain why I felt my son in your territory. But what do the Celts have to do with this?" question Zeus with a frown.
"During the time that all of us detected these anomalies Morrigan and ScƔthach were infiltrating my territory," informed Amaterasu.
"I heard that they were there to investigate the new descendant of Cu Chulainn," frowned Apollo.
"Yes that is what they saidā¦but was he really a descendant or just their first successful experiment?" questioned Amaterasu, and a deep silence filled the room.
"You think they used the same method on the boy using Cu Chulainn's power? Amaterasu do you have any proof? I think I'd be able to recognize a fake of my champion," argued Artemis.
"Nothing yetā¦but the timing is just too convenient for me to throw it away as chance. It would be easy for ScĆ”thach and Morrigan to hide their presences with their skills," reasoned the Shinto Goddess.
"So the Celts are responsible, I will have Dagda's head for this!" roared Zeus and they all heard the loud clap of thunder.
"No or at least not completely, I believe that Morrigan, ScƔthach and possibly Lugh are acting on their own accord," assured Amaterasu quickly.
"You say that Amaterasu but the behavior of the Celts as a whole in recent years suggests they are preparing for conflict," pointed out Apollo.
