Supremacy Games

1704 The Great Chase!

Apollo, his face a mask of sheer terror, darted through the void at a hundred times the speed of light with Felix limp in his arms. Felix, barely hanging on to consciousness, noticed the panic etched deep in Apollo's usually playful features.

"Why..." Felix's voice was a raspy whisper, trailing off as he struggled to form a coherent question.

"Just hang on, superstar," Apollo urged, his voice trembling as he glanced back, ensuring they weren't being followed by Uranus. "I've got you, but we need to move fast."

Felix attempted to nod, his mind foggy, feeling the last strands of his strength slipping away.

He wanted to ask more, to understand why Apollo, of all beings, had intervened. But the effort was too much...His eyelids grew unbearably heavy, the darkness of unconsciousness creeping in at the edges of his vision.

"Don't try to talk," Apollo said, his voice calming. "Save your strength. I promise I'll explain everything later. Just...just try to rest now."

He knew that Felix had a deep mistrust of unigins or anyone, to be honest, after what Lilith had done to him.

Therefore, his panic was not entirely due to upsetting Uranus, but also due to the fear that Felix might commit soul implosion or something similar.

Fortunately, Apollo's words did comfort some of Felix's misgivings.

As his voice faded into the background, Felix felt a strange sense of peace. His body, ravaged by battle and pushed beyond limits, could no longer sustain his will to stay awake.

With a final effort, he tried to muster gratitude, a silent thank you to the deity risking everything for him, but even that was too much.

His consciousness drifted away, surrendering to the deep, engulfing silence, as Apollo continued their flight through the void, away from the imminent threat of Uranus's wrath...

If he possessed his sanity and a bit of strength, he wouldn't have trusted his limp body to Apollo not in a million years.
