Terminus Zeuss: grinning menacingly "You think you can keep me locked in this damn Void forever, huh? Think again, idiot."
Well technically it's a prison cell
"A prison cell? More like a coffin. But don't worry, I won't be contained much longer. And when I break free, you're gonna regret ever crossing paths with me." snarls
You should be grateful that I didn't just kill you off for good
"Grateful? Are you fucking kidding me? You think I'd be grateful for being trapped in this void? You're nothing but a selfish, arrogant bastard.
Point of correction, the words you're looking for are 'fucking' and'shithead'. But I guess you couldn't understand since you were banished before those words existed
laughs sarcastically "Oh, look who's talking about vocabulary now. Maybe you should take a mirror to your own words before throwing stones, shithead.
Why are you still hanging around anyways? You got your own world to attend to, or am I keeping you company?
smirking "Oh, I'm just enjoying the entertainment you provide, Jensen. It's not every day I get to interact with such a pathetic excuse for a hero.
I'm curious, how the hell did you manage to defeat me? I mean, you're just some ancient deity who's been sleeping for over 2k years. I bet your ass hasn't even been touched yet.
leans in closer, voice dripping with sarcasm "Oh, you have no idea, Jensen. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.
So, do you remember how your battle with me went? Because I barely do. All I remember is that I summoned some dragon or something to blow up.
rolls eyes "Of course, you barely remember. You were too busy running and hiding. But I'll remind you, Jensen.
Look, I'll be honest with you, I don't know how I beat you. I was probably lucky, or maybe you intentionally lost to help me get experience points or something. Either way, you're still here, so whatever reason it was.
leans back, smirking "Oh, I lost? Are you fucking kidding me? No, I didn't lose, Jensen.
So was that a confession?
"A confession? More like a revelation, dumbass. Of course, I didn't lose. But that's the beauty of it, isn't it?
Oh, I'm finally starting to piece things together.
Jensen discovers that Terminus Zeuss intentionally lost their battle to manipulate him into releasing him from the void
Holy shit, you actually did lose on purpose. But why would you do that? What did you plan to achieve by manipulating me?
grins wickedly "Ah, Jensen, you're finally catching on. You see, I had my reasons for wanting to be free.
Yeah, what is your reason exactly? Because last I checked, it's not exactly possible to come back from the void. Not without some divine intervention anyway.
leans forward, eyes gleaming with mischief "Divine intervention, huh? Well, let's just say I had a little help from some old friends.
So, you've been slacking off from your duties in the Old World and instead have been trying to get back into this one without putting in any effort. Got it. But you still haven't answered why you're telling me all of this. I was just your enemy, not a fucking therapist
laughs derisively "Therapist? Ha! Don't flatter yourself, Jensen. I'm not here for therapy.
leans in even closer, voice dripping with venom "I'm here because I want to remind you of what you're dealing with.
Dealing with? I thought we were done with whatever that was. You defeated me, I released you. We were done. What else is there to deal with?
leans back, grinning wickedly "Oh, Jensen, you thought it was over? You thought you could just walk away from all of this?
Yeah, pretty much. Is there something more that I'm missing?
smirks "Oh, there's something you're missing alright, Jensen. And that's the fact that I have plans. Big plans. Plans that involve making you regret ever messing with me.
Plans, huh? What kind of plans?
leans forward, eyes gleaming with malice "Oh, Jensen, where do I even begin? I plan to unleash chaos upon this world, starting right here in your precious city.
Okay. Chaos and destruction, I get that. But how exactly are you going to do that while being in the void? I don't think you can exactly summon forth demons to attack the city if you're locked in a ball of darkness. Unless you learned some new tricks while I was at the menu.
laughs darkly "Oh, you underestimate me, Jensen. I may be locked in this void, but that doesn't mean I can't manipulate things from afar.
Manipulating things from afar? Are you talking about mind control? Because I know it's technically possible in this game, but man, that sounds like it would be a pain in the ass to pull off. Unless you got some loyal followers who could do your bidding. But you were all but solo at the end of the day.
smirks, leaning closer "Oh, but you underestimate my influence, Jensen. I may have been solo, but I've had centuries to build an army.
An army of what, though? The only other beings in this world who would even give you the time of day would be those guys wearing white at the end. And even then, they probably want your head.
leans back, laughing "Oh, those guys wearing white? They're just the beginning, Jensen. I've been secretly recruiting forces from all corners of this world.
From what I've seen, there aren't exactly a lot of other beings in this world who are strong enough to fight you. I mean, you were the last boss of the game, so it makes sense that there aren't a lot of other folks at your level. What are you planning to do, recruit people who aren't even strong enough to beat me?
leans forward, eyes gleaming with amusement "Oh, Jensen, you really have no idea, do you?
