Dc: The Brother of Superman

"What does that mean?" (Queen Hippolyta)

In the Oracle chambers, Isaac, Queen Hippolyta, and Diana were puzzled by the Oracle's prediction.

"I don't know..." (Oracle Menalippe)

(Huh, she doesn't know?)

Everyone looked at the Oracle as if saying that she needed to explain herself.

*Sigh*

"The visions and predictions don't come with a specific timeline or manual; that's why we can only interpret what the gods want to tell us." (Oracle Menalippe)

Then she looked at Isaac.

"But one thing is certain: this prediction didn't come from our gods." (Oracle Menalippe)

"What!?" (Queen Hippolyta)

Now it was time for Queen Hippolyta to be stunned.

"Then where's it  from?" (Princess Diana)

For the first time, Princess Diana spoke.

"I do not know Princess, but I can tell that the entity that gave me that prediction was ancient and extremely powerful (Oracle Menalippe).

(I doubt that I will get answers from the system, but I guess I need to keep that in mind for now on.)

"I understand. I thank you."

Isaac bowed to the Oracle.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't be of more help; also, there's something else..."(Oracle Menalippe)

(There's more!?)

"This one is for Queen Hippolyta and you. An alliance must be made between the sorcerer and the Amazons." (Oracle Menalippe)

(Hmm?)

"That sounds more like an order than a prediction." (Princess Diana)

Queen Hippolyta didn't comment on that statement.

"Unfortunately, I doubt right now that you all will accept an alliance with me."

"Why is that?" (Princess Diana)

Diana looked curiously at Isaac.

"Due to cultural and gender differences."

"Cultural?" (Princess Diana)

"Gender?"(Queen Hippolyta)

"Correct; after all, I'm a male."

When Isaac confirmed their thoughts, Queen Hippolyta, Princess Diana, and the other Amazons in the room took fighting stances.

As the only one armed, Princess Diana pulled out her sword from her sheath.

Queen Hippolyta and Princess Diana didn't know what to say or do; they knew that there was a possibility that the person known as Sephiroth could be a male, but he alrigh admitting it was, unexpected. Furthermore, he was invited to the island.

"The Amazons lost to a man." If these news reached the city, many Amazons would try to revolt and attack him and his island.

For that reason, Queen Hippolyta was trying to come up with a plan, but unfortunately, it was too late. A knock came through the metal door.

*Knock* *knock*

"My Queen, the preparations are complete (General Phillipus)

"..."(Queen Hippolyta)

Seeing the Amazons like that, Isaac spoke.

"As soon as we finish our promise, I will go; later, if things change, we can talk about it carefully."

*Sigh*

"Very well.(Queen Hippolyta) Her tone changed to a more cold one.

After saying that she looked at the Amazons in the chamber, her demeanor and voice changed immediately.

"Not a word will be spoken of what transpires here today, understood!?" (Queen Hippolyta)

An order that no one could defy, and if they were foolish enough to do it, there was only one outcome: death.

"Yes, Queen Hippolyta!"

"That includes you, my daughter (Queen Hippolyta).

"Yes, mother(Princess Diana)

She put her sword in her sheath again.

*****************

After saying his goodbyes to the Oracle, Issac followed the Queen, the Princess, and the General throughout the palace. After exiting the palace from the back, a massive Greek temple could be seen at the foot of a mountain.

(This mountain, no, this is the famous volcano; if my memories are right, this is where the gates of Tartarus are and also the Treasury.)

{And apparently the magic circle too}

After entering the temple, Isaac could finally distinguish for which God served this temple.

(...Hera)

The temple had many sculptures of Hera along with many offerings, and many Amazons were guarding the place.

We went directly down the temple; we passed many rooms and places.

(This place is f**ing massive.)

Suddenly, we reached a place where a massive door lay in front of us. General Phillipus took a step forward, and she pulled out a medallion from her neck.

The medallion started to shine, and then the door, in response, started to shine as well, in an intriguing pattern.

*Clank*

*Creack*

(A magic recognize mechanism, hmm, not only that, I also can see that the medallion had some runes carved on it and they match up with the door.)

The door opened, and a massive set of downstairs could be seen.

She didn't hesitate and went in, followed by us. After a couple of hours, we finally reached the end of the downstairs.

Another door was there, this time smaller than the last one, small enough for only one person to pass.

(I can feel that we are below sea level; that means that we should be in the magma chamber of the volcano, but there's no heat.)

This time, it was Queen Hippolyta who took a step forward.

She put forward her right hand, where an exquisite bracelet transformed itself into a key. Gripping the key, she put it on the carved space in the middle of the door.

*Clank*

*Tssi*

*Creack*

This activated a mechanism that opened the door before them. General Phillipus was the first one to enter, followed by the Queen, Princess Diana, me, and lastly, the Amazon Guards.

When Isaac entered the room, the first thing he saw was the massive drawing of a magic circle on the entire floor of the room.

"You have 1 hour(General Phillipus)

He didn't respond to her; instead, he started to levitate high up into the ceiling of the room, but the floor and the ceiling were massive.

(I guess this room is the size of the entire volcano, and we are in the magma chamber, but all that magma is pushed down, and that pressure, along with the geothermic energy, is what powers the hole island.)

Isaac flew all the way up until he could finally distinguish the whole magic circle.

(Hmm, this thing is more complex than the seal on their heads and souls.)

[Do you wish for me to start the analysis of the magic circle, master?]

(Not yet; let me see it with my other vision first.)

Isaac's eyes started to glow, and then he finally saw something unexpected.

(Yes, this is the auto-destructive security measure; there are additional magic circles that support the main one, as well as runes that connect each magic circle to the others.)

After half an hour, Isaac came down.

*Tap*

"I'm done; the debt has been repaid; now, if you excuse me,"

Isaac pulled a teleportation talisman from his robes for everyone to see.

Immediately, the guards, Princess Diana and General Phillipus, took a defensive stance.

Even when they all saw the paper in his hand, they didn't put down their guards.

The paper turned bright in his right hand, and then, in a flash of purple light, he disappeared.

"What an interesting person" Princess Diana whispered under her breath.

"Let's go, everyone. We need much to discuss" (Queen Hippolyta)

The Queen just turned around and left the room.

Back on the ship, the moment he was teleported in, it started to move, and the Amazons on the port received the instructions to let the ship go.

"Now you can start analyzing the magic circle."

[Understood, master, but due to the complexity of the magic circle, the time...]

"Don't worry about the time; complete the project, Hogwarts, first, then start with this one."

[Understood]
