Ephus, looked as Guðr bowed before him. He then tried to get the Valkryie off her knees.

“I am not a god Guðr, you do not need to bow to me,” Ephus said.

“Lord Ephus, I am only showing you the respect that you deserve,” Guðr said, visibly shaking. The one before her may not be a god, he was powerful, plus, was also more human. There was no telling what he could do to punish her.

Ephus could see and feel this from the female, sighing again, why in the hell was everyone thinking he was going to punish them? Looking at the Asgardian gods, he thought back to the other two sets of gods he’d met.

Damn, he thought, they really were that bad, why was all the pain so necessary? A thought came to him, fear and respect through fear and pain. Though, as he thought about it, they could more times than not backfire in most hellish ways.

So, again he tried to get the Valkryie to rise off the floor. Almost to no avail, then Guðr started to rise, a look of near awe and fear etched on her face.

Ephus was about to open his mouth when a stray voice came to him. “Ephus,– —- need of— your wife —, then there was nothing.

He stretched his arms out feeling the thoughts, they were almost completely blocked. As the anger started to build, Ephus could feel strong interference. Reaching, he felt a god or rather Titan.

Ephus put all his power into the strike that he let loose. A shrill scream sounded in the air.

“You should really make sure who it is you piss off before you do,” growled Ephus as he applied even more pressure.

No one does this to Iapetus! You will pay dearly for… Iapetus started to think. Ephus started to apply even more pressure interspaced with even more brutal hits.

“I believe that I will enjoy destroying you, you useless little shit. If not, then you won’t be doing too much for a while,” Ephus said as he felt an arm, then both legs start to snap in several places.

A moment later, Ephus felt three powerful powers hit him. To their surprise, they bounced off him as if they were nothing.

A fourth and fifth, then a sixth added their power, barely breaking Ephus’ hold on Iapetus.

Thankfully, Iapetus had gone quiet, actually calming Ephus for a moment.

What felt like a solid wall formed between Ephus and Iapetus. This Ephus hit, knocking the Titans there out of the way, going straight to Iapetus, he commenced to beat the hell out of more.

Ephus stop! Came the thoughts of Cronus.

“I suggest that you keep that THING as far away from me as you can. Next time I will not stop nor will any of you stop me from destroying him. It was blocking the thoughts I just barely received. If this delayed me helping my family,” here Ephus growled at Iapetus. “Then I will return and finish the job.”

With a wave of his hand, Ephus blew the Titans deep into their prison, nodded to Odon and the rest then vanished.

Less than a few seconds later, Bast, Serket and Thoth felt an enormous power approaching them. Then, in a plume of smoke and fire, Ephus appeared not looking too happy.

A look around the room showed two of his Egyptian goddess wives, his Egyptian god brother Thoth. Though, the thing that got him moving the most was his prone, human wife, Quinn.

At her side, Ephus looked at her, then his other wives. “How long has she had this much power?” Ephus asked.

“Not long after you left,” Bast said. “At first we were trying to help train her. I am afraid that we, no I pushed her too much. Her power was growing so fast we were afraid she might be hurt without more control. I failed my husband.” Lowering her head, she waited for Ephus’ anger.

Bast was surprised a moment later when Ephus’ hand gently guided her head upward. “You didn’t fail my Bast, I did. I didn’t think that her power would grow as fast as it did.”

“I have determined that her power is much like yours.
