Chapter 102: Chapter 102
Harry continued to grin at Dionysus enjoying watching the god tremble in fear but decided to stop a few moments later, there were still questions he wanted answers to after all.
So Harry turn his head towards Chiron who up until now seemed to be very forthcoming with information so he decided to ask him "Chiron I have a few questions that have been bothering me about this camp for a while, can I count on you to answer them".
Chiron stared into Harry's eyes for a few seconds before he nodded "I'll do my best to answer your questions to the best of my abilities Lord Potter".
Harry nodded and smiled at Chiron "You can call me Harry, I'm not one for formalities " Chiron smiled and nodded at Harry.
Harry sighed then decided to go ahead and ask his questions "Mind explaining the purpose of this camp, and why are there so many demigods here? At first, I thought that perhaps the Greek Faction was preparing for war but at most, there are only kids here and I've only seen a few adults or even older teens".
Dionysus frowned if he was honest he would have preferred that Harry wouldn't have found out about this entire situation with the demigods but he knew that they had no other choice but to inform him, there was no way they could deny him any answer since he would eventually find out anyways.
Sally looked down already knowing the answer to these questions, she understood that the gods were forced to abandon their children because of the law but she never like it.
Chiron sighed and crossed his arm across his chest "... When the Greeks had just moved to the United States the gods did as they used to do in ancient Greece and mingled with humans resulting in many demigods being born but... the big three Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon had children that in World War 2 clashed against each other and cause a big disaster, as a result, Zeus and his brothers made a pact to no longer sire any children since they are very powerful and thus dangerous...".
Harry frowned, he didn't know about this and wondered if Amaterasu or Yasaka knew about it, perhaps even Gabriel and Serafall knew? He going to have to ask them sometime later.
Chiron continued on "but, well... as you can see with Percy they didn't exactly follow through with the pact, both Zeus and Poseidon had children and even though Zeus fervently tried to impose the pact, even he failed to do so in the end... he killed the children and lover of Hades and in an effort to pay him back sends monsters to hunt down their children".
Harry narrowed his eyes while Chiron went on "The life of a demigod is hard since ancient Greek monsters can smell their divine blood so they hunt them down so this camp is meant to be a sanctuary for demigods and a training ground to prepare them for the world and protect them from the creatures that seek their deaths".
Harry stared at both Chiron and Dionysus for a few long seconds which made both of them very nervous, Percy who had been listening to everything that was just said frowned "... but it's not our fault that we were born... why would the gods have us just to abandoned us and leave us to the monsters?".
Sally sadly frowned "Because if they stay they lose their divinity, they become human and as gods, they can't allow that to happen, it would bring an unbalanced to the world".
But Harry spoke, "That's a lie...".
Sally and Percy turned their heads towards Harry while Chiron looked at him intrigued while Dionysus seemed confused, Chiron wanting to know what Harry meant decided to ask him to elaborate "What do you mean Harry?".
Harry sighed and rubbed his eyes, this entire situation was starting to piss him off "... I can't believe the Greeks are so arrogant and so deluded that they think that their becoming human would send the world into chaos".
Everyone stared at Harry not understanding why he would say that but he decided to explain "There are so many Gods out there in the world with the same domains as the Greeks so trust me when I say that them becoming human for a single lifetime wouldn't really affect the world in fact it wouldn't be noticed at all".
Sally frowned "But Poseidon was becoming human and I know it's true because I saw it...".
Harry smiled at Sally and nodded "Amaterasu once told me that sometimes when a god loves his mortal family they become human to spend their life with them but after their wife or husband passes on they become gods once again".
Chiron, Dionysus, and Sally gaped at the information they just received, suddenly Dionysus stood up "Zeus lied to all of us! He told us that we would die mortal if we stayed in the human world! He prohibited us from seeing our children because of that!".
Harry however frowned "That doesn't excuse any of you gods from all this Dionysus, all of you could have done more to be with your children in some form or the other or at least sent a letter or something... do you know what was the first thing I sensed when I stepped inside this camp?".
Chiron and Dionysus stared at Harry, they were very hesitant to know about what Harry sensed but Harry didn't even give them any time to think "Sorrow, anger, and hate... that's what I felt from all these children here, in their hearts in some way or the other these emotions lurk, I wonder how long will take for them to grow tired of all this, of all of you and rebel?".
Dionysus and Chiron flinched upon hearing Harry's words while he just shook his head "All of this is just horrid and disgusting... abandoning children, family killing family, and arrogance of a level I haven't seen in a while, you Greek Gods might just be worse than the Devil Faction".
Dionysus looked like he had been struck in the face while Chiron just looked down unable to say anything, Eri, Sally, Percy, and Grover just silently watched on as Harry berated them and told them some very hard truths.
Harry crossed his arms across his chest and frowned "I'll be staying in this camp for a while but I will be speaking with the Greek Pantheon soon enough, as a faction leader and a father I can't allow this to go on... all of these poor children are a ticking bomb made out of your own actions and quite honestly they deserve better than this".
Sally smiled and nodded in agreement to Harry's words while Percy and Grover looked at him like he was some kind of superhero, while Eri smiled at her father feeling very happy right now, Harry just went on "I'll decide what I'm going to do about all of this after speaking with the gods and depending of what I hear I might just decide to take drastic measures...".
Chiron bowed and accepted Harry's words while Dionysus gulped, Harry then turned towards Grover who jumped a bit in surprise "Since we're going to be staying for a while do you mind giving me and Eri a tour Grover?".
Grover nodded "Of course! Follow me and I'll take you around the camp! There are all kinds of interesting things to see and do here!".
Eri smiled and hopped off Chiron's back and softly landed on the floor and immediately ran towards her father and grabbed his hand which Harry gently grasped with a soft smile on his face, he then turned his head toward Sally and Percy "Want to come? I'm sure since Percy will be staying here for now he might want to see what this camp has to offer".
Both Sally and Percy nodded and immediately stood up, both of them began to follow Harry as he and Eri followed Grover out of Dionysus's office.
Dionysus sighed and slumped on his seat "... Damn Zeus's tantrum just had to bring the attention of Harry fucking Potter to us!".
Chiron looked down and shook his head "This has been a long time coming... perhaps it's time the Greek Faction pays for all the wrong we have done? Either way I'll accept my fate, I rather not anger the Dragon God more than he already is".
Dionysus frowned and sighed "... Yeah".
-----
A couple of days have passed since that night and Harry had spent most of it talking to the demigod children around the camp, most were kind and hard-working kids though some were rather arrogant and stupid like his parents.
Eri had taken a disliking to a girl named Clarisse La Rue when she began to bully Percy for some unknown reason, which resulted in Eri blasting the girl with a blast of pure mana that sent her flying and crashing into the lake.
Clarisse was certainly lucky that she was a demigod otherwise Harry had no doubt she would have died from the impact against the water but she was fine if only just very bruised up.
But the demigods in the camp learn to have a healthy amount of respect and fear of Eri which just amused Harry quite a bit, while in the camp Eri trained and hung out with the demigods and learned quite a bit from them.
Meanwhile, Harry spoke and asked questions to the demigods in the camp, he learn that most of them had lost their parents and family to the monsters and had nowhere else to go but the camp while a few others ran away from home.
It didn't take a genius for Harry to understand why they ran away, like with his uncle and aunt these kid's family most likely hated their true nature and made their lives miserable.
But what appalled Harry a lot was the fact that many kids weren't even recognized by their godly parent, as if they weren't even worth being recognized as their children and this made Harry rather sad and angry.
The Hermes cabin was filled with kid's not recognized by their parents, kids who felt unwanted and abandoned not only by their godly parents but by the world itself.
So Harry decided to help them out a bit and so he used Wood Style to enlarge the cabin and increase the number of rooms and space, he even enlarged the inside to make sure the kids were comfortable.
With that done he then spent time with the kids along with Eri and listened to them talk about their fears, their dreams, and their hopes, Harry made sure to support them and be there for them, in the few days he spend in camp he had become the favorite adult of many of the demigods.
He sort of became a cool uncle they could go and talk with him about their problems and he would listen to them and even joke and play around with them.
Eri also became very beloved by everyone, in fact, many demigods saw her as someone who they wanted to learn from, she had told everyone of her horrid past and the demigods seeing that she was making something amazing out of herself decided to follow her example and not drown in their own darkness.
But Harry had seen a lot of bad things during these past few days, he saw things that he utterly hated, and even though on the outside he seemed calm and smiling, Chiron and Dionysus knew better, within Harry brewed a storm.
A storm they're afraid the Greek Pantheon isn't anywhere ready to handle or survive, Dionysus already knew this to be true since he had his ass kicked by Harry a day after he had arrived.
The reason? Dionysus was very rude and uncaring to the children and his habit of never calling them by their right name ended up pissing Harry something fierce, and the end result was Harry taking on his dragon form and stomping on Dionysus until he called every demigod by their correct name.
The punishment was even worse for Dionysus since Eri would heal him between stomps to make sure he finished calling each and every Demigod by their name.
The demigods were not only shocked by Harry's enormous dragon form but by the way he treated Dionysus like he was some sort of bug that needed to be stomped.
Harry didn't know it then but that had made him a sort of hero for the demigods especially since many had wished someone would do something like that to the gods.
And within those demigods one of them named Luke became rather impressed with Harry, he had spoken to him before and was surprised at how caring and understanding Harry was despite being a dragon god.
The fact that Harry cared about his children was something that was very evident to him with the way he treated Eri and spoke to the younger kids of the camp.
For the first time, Luke began to think that perhaps there was a better way to take revenge on the Greek Gods, a way that didn't require sacrificing his friends and family perhaps even helping his mother.
-----
Today there was a big event in the camp, some sort of war game where most of the demigods would participate, a sort of big capture the flag type of match.
Percy was going to join and even though Sally was worried about her son she decided to support him from afar and so she stood alongside Chiron, Grover, and Harry to watch the game.
The demigods convinced Eri to take part in the game as well and since she was the daughter of a dragon god she was permitted to join so she joined Luke's and Percy's team against the team gathered by a daughter of Athena named Annabeth Chase.
A very intelligent if not very prideful young girl, she reminded him a lot of Hermione in the way she spoke and questioned everything which often made him chuckle to her embarrassment and annoyance.
But it was through her he also came to learn a lot of the things that have been happening in the camp, about the demigods that have lived there for a long while and about the quest they supposedly get sent on.
In Neo Kyoto you can get a quest in any guild and get paid for fulfilling it, your rank decides the type of quest you can take and there are a lot of precautions to avoid death but the Greek Faction doesn't have that and many demigods have died doing these so-called quest sent by the gods.
It was here that Harry had come to a big decision one that he would be letting the Greek Gods know soon when he meets them, he would be making sure to change things for these kids and the Greek Gods had better not get in his way
But right now he was going to watch the kids beat each other silly for a flag though he was also silently sending a small prayer to the poor demigods that would end up facing Eri in the match.
-----
Eri was sitting on top of the hill along her Nyaromon, where her team had decided to plant their flag, while she listen to everyone plan their attack to take the other team's flag she began to pet her Digimon partners who seemed to be enjoying it quite a bit.
Percy now that he had spent a few days in camp has gotten to know quite a few members of the other houses in the camp and has befriended most of them, in fact, many of the kids in the camp sort of looked at Percy as a sort leader since he is the son of one of the big three.
So Percy was trying to come up with a plan when he heard what the others knew of their enemies, Travis Stoll and Connor Stoll sons of Hermes were telling him what they know.
Travis spoke up "The other team has the Ares house, all of them! So it's like they have a herd of bulls and they're all going to be rushing towards us and I'm not sure any of us can slow them down".
Connor scratched his head and sighed "They also have the Aphrodite house on their team, they all might seem girly and what not but there's a lot of them too and they're not shy about poking you with sharp objects plus Annabeth and the Athena house and so we can expect a big plan from those nerds...".
Percy sighed "So their team has two of the biggest houses and those two are quite dangerous, to begin with, and a bunch of bookworms as well... and what do we have?".
Luke grinned "We have the Hermes house which is quite a lot actually, the Son of Poseidon! and some assortment of other houses as well, a mismatched army one could say".
Percy smiled and nodded "Well this is not bad plus we also have our secret weapon!".
Everyone raised an eyebrow at Percy, no one hadn't said anything about a secret weapon so they were very confused and intrigued by Percy's declaration, Percy grinned and turned towards Eri causing everyone to turn to look at her.
Eri brightly smiled and waved at everyone when she noticed they were all looking at her, many were taken by her adorable demeanor, Percy grinned thinking that they had this match in the bag because of Eri.
He had gotten to know the bundle of cuteness during their stay at the camp and he knew for a fact that behind that cuteness lays a mass of pure chaos and destruction the likes no has ever seen before.
His team was skeptical though, Connor rubbed the back of his head "Err... Percy that's a seven-year-old girl... you really don't expect her to fight right?"
Percy just continued to grin "Oh yes... yes I do! Eri! Can you come here for a second".
Eri smiled and nodded, she then immediately stood up and ran up to Percy "What is it, Percy?".
Percy patted her head and smiled at her "What sort of restrictions did Harry give you for this match?"
Everyone stared at Percy like he was insane while Eri hummed "Well he said not to use anything that can cause mass destruction so... no raining down meteors, big explosions, instant death spells, big area of effect spells, permanent curses, no opening a black hole, instant freeze, dropping a sea worth of water on them and of course not teleporting anyone into space or at the bottom of the sea!".
Everyone sweatdropped and took a step away from Eri out of sheer reflex while one thought ran through everyone's mind {This little girl is dangerous!}.
The fact that she delivered those words with a cheerful smile on her face just made it worse, Percy however already knew all of this so he wasn't even affected by it, instead, he thought that the fact that Eri had access to such powerful magic was pretty cool "Okay so no big attacks...".
Eri nodded "and no magic spells that could destroy the country either".
Everyone sweatdropped at how casually these two were speaking of such scary things "Well then can you offer long-range support? Maybe soften up the opposition".
Eri tilted her head "Airstrike?".
Percy nodded and smiled at Eri "Yes an air strike will be good".
Eri nodded and then took her witch's hat out from who knows where and then began to pull things out of it, things that clearly did fit in that small witch's hat until she found her broom and took it out.
Eri then used magic to put everything she took out of her witch's hat back into it and then put it on her head, she then brightly smiled at Percy "I'm ready!".
Percy nodded "Alright then take off and attack them as soon as the match begins, that should scramble and confuse them getting rid of any plan they might have had, the rest of us will charge forward to the flag!".
Everyone nervously cheered but Luke then raised a hand "What about our flag?".
Percy nodded and turned towards Eri who smiled "We can leave the Nyaromon to protect the flag".
Everyone turned towards the Nyaromon who were listening and watching everyone from the top of the hill where the flag is, Travis scratched his cheek "Err are you sure you want to leave your little friends to protect the flag, they might get hurt you know?".
But Eri just smiled and nodded "You can trust them to not let anyone get to close to our flag~".
Everyone had no choice but to nod and Eri hopped on her broom and took off high into the sky while everyone but Percy gaped at her not really expecting her to fly off on a broom.
-----
Harry smiled as he watch his daughter fly off into the sky, Sally's looked up and smiled "It still amazes me whenever I see Eri fly off in her little broom".
Harry smiled and nodded "I made that broom along with my girlfriend Hermione, it is the fastest and most powerful flying broom in the world".
Chiron hummed "Aren't you afraid she might fall or hurt herself flying at such speeds?".
Harry chuckled a little "Did you forget that Eri is a dragon? A child of a dragon god no less, with all the training and what she has learned she is firmly planted in the Heavenly Dragon rank".
Chiron turned his head towards Harry so fast that for a second Harry was afraid he had snapped his own neck "That little and adorable girl is Heavenly Dragon Rank in power!?".
Harry tilted his head and nodded "Well yeah, she is my daughter after all".
Chiron deadpanned at Harry "I thought she was adopted...".
Harry smiled and nodded "She is but I gave her my blessings and a whole bunch of other stuff and she has become a dragon because of that and she has risen to the rank of Heavenly Dragon, my other Daughter Hope was born in the rank of Dragon God, she is in fact the Dragon God of Comic Flames, oh! She's also part phoenix too and my niece has gotten stronger and she's almost at the level to become a dragon god herself... but now that I think about it I wonder what her first domain is going to be?".
Sally smiled and giggled a bit at how happy and proud Harry sounded whenever he spoke of his daughters and niece, he certainly was the most friendly and kind deity she has ever met.
Chiron just sighed and rubbed his eyes, now he was a little worried about his students since he now knows they were facing a being far beyond the gods but all he could is pray for them to survive.
-----
Someone blew a big horn which was the signal to begin the match and then pure and unadulterated chaos and destruction fell from the sky upon Annabeth's team.
No one expected an attack from above, no one would dare to go into Zeus's domain after all but it seems like someone did and was attacking them with a lot of force.
Eri looked down as she let loose all the Beginner Rank spells she knew at the other team, simple and weak spells like Fireball, Aqua Edge, Stone Blast, and so on.
What Eri was unaware of is that even though these spells are of the Beginner Rank, it was her a Heavenly Dragon and daughter of Harry Potter who was using the spells which meant that all of those spells were at least Master Rank in power.
So Annabeth's team was completely taken off guard as it rained down armageddon upon them in the form of elemental spells, all they could do was scream in pain as pretty much everyone was blown away.
It was really lucky that as demigods they were highly resistant otherwise Harry would have to spend most of his afternoon putting a bunch of kids back together or perhaps even bringing them back to life.
But none of that happened and as Percy smugly grinned as he watched the flaming explosions, lightning barrages, and whatnot send his enemies flying everywhere, Luke walked up to his side "... Remind me not to get into a fight with Eri...".
Percy smiled at Luke and nodded "You know... the scary thing about all of this is that she's holding back a lot!".
Everyone sweatdropped as they continue to watch as Eri bombarded the opposing team with the fury of the elements with a cheerful smile on her face, even when they began to beg or surrender she just continued to blast them away.
There was no mercy on that little girl and that made everyone rather nervous, Luke began to sweat profusely {Yeah... I think I'm going to come clean to Harry... there's no way I'm going to get into a fight with Eri even if it's for revenge...}.
-----
After the massacre that was the capture the flag match, Percy was declared the winner, after Eri had single-handedly devastated the opposing team Percy had just walked up to the other team's flag and took it with a grin on his face.
Eri had earned herself the moniker, the Witch of Destruction from everyone in the camp something she really liked and took on with pride something that Harry found rather adorable.
He did have to heal Annabeth, the house of Athena, Ares, and Aphrodite quite a bit but they were fine and quite impressed with Eri, in fact, some of them even showed her some respect.
That night everyone decided to throw a party in celebration of Percy's victory and Eri's merciless slaughter of the opposing team and Harry watched with a fond smile as everyone ate, play around, and behaved like the children they are.
He even watched as Eri cheerfully laughed and talked to everyone who approached her to ask about her magic, while the Nyaromon were on top of a table eating as much food as they could.
It seemed that Eri got herself a fan club which didn't surprise Harry at all, having nothing to do he opted to sit by the campfire and roast some marshmallows to eat.
But he then saw someone tending the campfire, someone rather peculiar.
Harry's eyes immediately picked up on who it is that is tending the campfire, to everyone else she might look like any normal ten-year-old with reddish brown hair but to Harry, she looked very different, so knowing who had shown up Harry sighed and spoke up "So what does Hestia the Goddess of the Hearth, Home, and Family need from this dragon god".
Out of all the Greek Gods, Hestia is the one god Harry didn't feel any sort of ill will towards, more specifically because of the domains she rules over.
Hestia turned her head towards Harry and gave him a small smile "Harry Potter, you're more than a simple dragon god... you're one that follows the principles of my domains".
Harry chuckled and pulled out his stick full of melted marshmallows and ate a few, Hestia just watched him do so in silence for a little but she then spoke up "Are you here to kill my family?".
Harry chewed his marshmallows and then swallowed "What your brothers have been doing, what the rest of the Greek Pantheon have caused, and all of this, the children, the camp, the simple fact that all of these kids are pushed aside like toys your family got tired of playing with gives me plenty of reasons to go to Olympus and kill them all".
Hestia looked down, she really didn't have a response to that nor could she defend her brothers, sisters, nephews, and nieces, for so many centuries she had watched on as many children who are her family as well died horrible and meaningless deaths.
Killed by monsters, dying of neglect from heartbroken parents who didn't understand why they were abandoned by their lovers, some even took their own life not willing to live this horrible life thrust upon them by the selfishness of the gods and no matter what she thought about all of this all she could do is watch.
Even now as Zeus was preparing for war against Poseidon because he thought Percy had stolen his Lightning Bolt all she did was watch in sadness, after all, no one ever listens to her anyways.
So she stopped trying to convince her family to be better to not keep fighting amongst themselves, and she stopped trying to convince Zeus to allow everyone to be with their children.
She only kept watching as more and more demigods kept dying and now all of that had drawn the attention of a very powerful and ruthless being.
Harry Potter is here and he wasn't happy and of course, he wasn't, Hestia being the Goddess of the Hearth, Home, and Family knew full well just how much Harry took the concept of family seriously.
It was only because of her domains that she knew that Harry is a family man and loves everyone whom he considers family.
This dragon god had accepted as family the entire Yokai Faction, the Vampire Faction some wizards, witches, and even some deities and very powerful supernatural beings are family to him and she knew that Harry would anything for each and every one of them.
To him everything the Greek Pantheon had done, everything they take such pride in was nothing but the most disgusting thing he had ever seen, to Harry the Olympians were monsters and that says a lot coming from someone like him who seems to have seen a lot.
Hestia knew this and yet she still loved her family despite everything they have done or are doing she still loves them all and so she didn't want any of them gone from this world "Is there any way for me to convince you not to kill them?".
Harry stayed silent as she continued to eat his melted marshmallows, Hestia patiently waited as Harry chewed on his treat and stared intently into the campfire "... It all depends on them really, I'm not going to go with the intent to kill but I will do so if they piss me off... at best I think most of them are smart enough to not do so but I have been wrong before".
Hestia sighed and looked down in sadness "I guess this is the best I could hope for... I knew that the effects of Zeus and Poseidon's anger would eventually catch the attention of someone I just didn't think it would be Harry Potter".
Harry began to skewer more marshmallows into his stick as he spoke, "It was Amaterasu who told me about all of this, I didn't even notice since to me all of these tantrums are nothing to me but to the Shinto Faction they are enough of a threat to call upon me and they don't like to bother me with petty things".
Hestia nodded and began to poke the fire "Out of everyone in Olympus I believe only my brother Zeus and Ares might cause problems the rest will not dare to anger you though Aphrodite might try something... I'm not really sure though, you never really know with her".
Harry nodded as he stare at his marshmallows melt in the campfire, suddenly the campfire burst to life and aggressively began to rise and flare, Hestia frowned knowing who was doing this but Harry just continued to calmly roast his marshmallows not really caring about what was going.
But the outburst of flames alerted everyone else and all the demigods turned towards the campfire while drawing their weapons ready for an attack only for a big demon-like creature to emerge from the flames and roar "Where is Percy Jackson!? Bring him to me!".
Harry sighed and began to eat his marshmallows as he stood up, Hestia shook her head in disappointment her brother just had to pick this exact moment to start a problem.
Harry walked around the campfire and stopped in front of the big demon-like creature who was to busy wildly looking around for Percy who was glaring at the creature.
The demon-like creature conjured up a fireball in his hand and was about to throw it to scare everyone but a voice cut in stopping him from throwing the fireball "I hope your not planning on throwing that when my daughter is among the many kids around here Hades...".
Hades froze and began to tremble, something in that voice, something he never wanted to be in the presence of had made everything that made him a God of Death shake in fear.
Hades slowly looked down and to his ever-growing fear he noticed who exactly he had before him "Harry Potter...".
The Master of Death his boss and lord was right in front of him eating marshmallows and glaring at him and it was here that Hades knew... he had made a horrible mistake.
