“Oh? You guys are already here?” Dionysus greeted them with a hiccup and swayed body while dragging the half-dead Hercules.
“Dionysus!... Dionysus?” At first, Hermes was calling Dionysus relieved, but his smile face disappeared when Hercules was dragged by the collar.
His condition wasn’t any better between them. In fact, he was thoroughly wrecked by Dionysus.
“Are… are you on their team?” Hermes’s face crumbled.
Dionysus scoffed before throwing the body to Hermes, which Hermes quickly caught.
“What did you see?” His wicked smile showed how angry he was. “You guys are the lost cause which I don’t wish to associate with.”
Elijah’s throat constricted and she swallowed hard a second time.The first time was when Shadow pulled her into the room while Samuel was dealing with Persephone and Hades. She had no choice but to stare at Shadow who was pacing around the entire room, trying to distract herself from pouncing at Elijah.In the punctuating silence, Elijah took off her clothes one by one and kicked them off on the floor while Shadow was obliged to pick them up wordlessly and placed them on the table. Elijah could feel the girl stinging gaze on her neck as her hand traced along her throat and flashed her shoulder seductively.“Are you sure you don’t want this?” Elijah tilted her head sideways, exposing the already exposed shoulder.
Shadow tucked them in after slipping on her loose robe. It took a couple of minutes for her to prepare herself physically and mentally to meet whoever was standing beyond that door.The guest room door.Their temporary chamber.CLICK!“What the likes of you doing here?” Shadow said in an arrogant tone as she opened the door.Her sound was arrogant and all-knowing even before she looked who was behind the door. However, her excellent sense of smell suggested that she knew who was there.“Your Excellency Shadow.”“Sir Edmund. It’s been a while.”Edmun
“Let’s not lie to ourselves, shall we?” Hades pursed his lips acting like he was a cute ancient god.“Ugh.” Shadow hummed under her breath. “I’m not aware that my enemy has so much faith in me. This is new.” She said in a touch of heavy sarcasm.“It is what it is, darling.” Persephone looked at her as if she was the cutest thing in the world.“Anyway, continue. Do you want to know anything about your early payment?”“My father’s biography or is that too much?”“Your father’s biography? Hmmm…” Shadow stroked her chin while think
As Conan and Dionysus stomped off the ground, Shadow’s attention was focusing on Hermes, Perseus, and Hercules.She straight liked a pole lamp before raising her fingers. “Tell me, what is your desire?”Hermes flinched. The dark aura permeated through the area. The sinister aura pushed them to the ground as if her aura had them in a chokehold. Their lungs were working hard to pump all the oxygen, nothing came out nor came in.“Help… help… help…”“Can’t breathe…”Huuk~ huuk!”Hercules crawled on the ground, one of his hands tried to grab the end of Shadow’s pants, Hermes scratched his throat in
“Are you sure?”“Yes. She has taken forever.”“It has only been one night. I’m sure she is fine.”“... follow me.”Still, in the woods, Dionysus and Conan were actually waiting for one kilometer away. By standard - according to Dionysus - she needed 24 hours alone with her subjects before they could find her.And, today was her second day.Well, one day and a half to be exact.So, Conan had no choice but to search for her when she still didn’t escape through the route that she had promised. Hence, he had to find her in order to give her complete rest.
“Ugh… go… run… ngghhh…” The man in the room raised his head and glanced over his shoulder. “...Ru… Ru… run… love…” He stopped his hand from signing the documents. “... can’t… die… you… love… my love…” The man turned his body to have a better view. His jaw was clenched hard, sometimes it moved back and forth. The vein on his hand popped out as he gripped the innocent pen firmly. “... ru… Am… ru… my love… don’t… die…” that hand stretched in the air with a hitched breath echoed in the room. The man cupped his chin and stared hard. “What are you? A pervert?” His friend that was also in
Shadow groaned weakly. Her head felt like she was struck with a brick. It was throbbing like crazy. Her eyeballs under her eyelids a few more times. Cold cotton disinfected swept across her body. “Ugh…” She winced. “It’s okay. Nothing can catch you.” A voice answered her. “Pain…” “I know. It will be okay.” “... okay…” Shadow answered. “Thank you… Amino…” She didn’t have to open her eyes to see who was next to her, diligently tended her wound. “... you know it’s me,” Amino said in amusement. “Never will not.” “Interesting.” Amino replied
“Where is she? Where is she? Where is she?” Elijah paced around Shadow’s office while biting her nail.“Sweetie…” Samuel tried to stop Elijah from biting it but he had nothing to offer.“It’s been two weeks. Two freaking weeks!” Elijah’s voice erupted as a silent volcano erupted.“Chill- gasp!”Amel learned to shut up when Elijah sent a fierce glare at him and instantly looked away. His eyes desperately pleaded for Samuel to intervene.Samuel just shook his head, his face told him that there was nothing they could do but to stay quiet.“Chill? Chill?! Huh?” Elijah shouted at Amel.
Black and Teal landed at the training ground where Shadow was. Their clean attire fluttered around, eyes focused on Shadoe who was harassing her sparring partners which consisted of Albert, Firash, Aidan, Dhia, and also Musa. Watching those people's haggard faces and tattered clothes, Teal covered her mouth as a nostalgic feeling crept under her skin. It was not a great experience. Although, it increased her prowess, power, ability to wield her GIFT, and strength. Still, it wasn’t a pleasant experience knowing how brutal Shadow could be. “I think we need to rescue them.” “Should we?”Black mumbled while stroking her chin while Teal shivered at the thought alone. Then, both of them wavered their hands as those people took notice of them and pleaded with their eyes.“Should we?”“... we should, should we?”Black asked cunningly and Teal sighed in resignation. If they don't save them, they might hit their limit soon. In normal circumstances, it would be ideal, however, not right now.
“Hmmm… are those the ships that we need to destroy?” “Apparently so, Blue.”“Seriously?”“Yup, yup.”“... that thing is gigantic. What the…” “Fu fu fu. Believe me, I thought so too, Blue.”Blue and Pink were standing right in front of the naval ship. Blue was standing on top of the ice he created while Pink was flying, fluttering her flower’s wings behind her back.They were in the middle of the sea with nothing in it. They were sure that the mermen would be ambushing. They expected it to a certain extent, however… what they didn’t expect was the oblivious approach.The naval ships filled with countless beastmen, no. hundreds of confused beastmen. Both Pink and Blue didn’t smell particularly strong.Blue seemed delighted but Pink was quite vexed. “Did we get the weakest link?” She flipped open her paper fan and fanned it harder.“I don’t know. Feels like I am in heaven.”Pink gnashed her teeth and glared at her partner.“What?” Blue acted innocent.“You and your stupid attitude.” S
“Look. there’s an ass picture of the supposed dragon lord.” Green mumbled next to White.“I can see that, Green.” White tried to control her lips from vomiting.“Just alerting you.”“Thank you.”Green and White were disguising themselves as a wizard and a witch. Wands at each hand.“Young man,” a soft touch was placed on Green.Green reflexly turned his head at the old lady next to him. His green eyes dilated a mere second before a sweet smile emerged. “Yes, beautiful lady?” “Ho ho ho,” the old lady that looked not more than 70 years old radiantly chuckled. “How sweet you are.” White looked away, acting like Green and she wasn’t related. The old lady might appear 70, but she knew better, that the old lady was centuries old.“Do you know what is the meaning behind this painting?”Green stroked his chin, pondering at the ass painting – again, the supposed dragon lord. He wasn’t sure what to say. It was literally the buttcrack of Ferdinand. How’d he know? The description was literall
Bzzzzzzt~The sharp sound of electricity traveled across the metal factory.Unlike Grey and Brown, their destination was a metal factory. Thanks to kind-hearted Grey, they changed their destination. It was the closest and it was on the ground.Everyone knew Orange didn’t do well underground due to old trauma. Hence why Grey decided to give in. As always. Also, they all knew that Orange was Grey’s favorite. Of course, Grey denied the claim and the issue died there. As usual.They strolled inside as if they were visiting the factory, not invading. Meanwhile, the enemies were panicking.“Abad’s been hit. There’s someone out here–” The voice that was shouting through the radio before cutting out. Huh? The fuck? Abad’s hurt?“Captain Ayham, the left side is clear,” Barqi said right after that. “We’re moving, heading to the main pathway.” Ayham gritted his teeth.He was in the controller room. CCTV captured the activities inside the factory. However, the place where the enemies were situ
Tap! Both of them landed right in the middle of the nothingness. It was barren. Sand, rock, and cactus. That’s all.It was a freaking desert.“This is the right place.” Brown adjusted his mask.Grey raised his arm into the air and pulled out his middle finger and felt the air.“Why must that one?” Brown was tired of his antics.“As long as I can do my work,” retorted Grey nonchalantly. “What about your situation?” Slightly turned his head at Brown.“I have a clear vision.” Brown closed his eyes, feeling the movement underneath. “How many?” He tilted his head. Something was wrong. The weather felt wrong for some reason. The density of air was different than usual.“Approximately 50 beastmen on each floor. I could be wrong.”“And how many floors do they have?” He opened his eyes and stared at the sky.“Approximately… three.” Grey counted the clouds in the air. “Three? Are you sure?” Brown tilted his head and set his jaw, feeling the vibration even the smallest one. “Wait a minute!
“Wild Bunny, gather!” Black clapped her hands, calling the rest of the restless members.“What are we? Fucking school kids?” Orange murmured silently, his steps still trudging toward Black.“Shut your stinky mouth.” Brown clicked his tongue.“What a fool.” White shook her head.“You’re the last thing I want to hear.” Teal groaned.“We ain’t fighting.” Pink pushed both their heads at once while walking past them.The rest of them were laughing inwardly.Once they gathered, Black placed a transparent bowl with numerous folded papers in it. Her black eyes latched on each one of them, wriggled her brows petulantly.“As usual, we’ll choose our area the Old Way.”“Ugh! I hate it.” Blue murmured amongst them. The voice filled with annoyance.“We must use this method to ensure fairness, Blue Bunny.” Blue rolled his eyes shut and slumped his head on Pink’s shoulder.“I’ll pick the paper for us.” Pink raised her hand.“Me… will do.” White raised her hand as well.Gold nodded at Black.“Alright
Flashback! “Hey! Do you want to hear a secret?” Shadow asked right after her wedding took place.All the Underworld family gathered around. A secret? Just you, and the rest of us? Ehe., hehehe. Oops. sorry that had to come out. Go on.” Brown and Orange clasped their hands in full happiness.“What is it?” Black swallowed hard. “Don’t tell me…”“Something is wrong.” Captain from Mandrill Monkey arched his brow in anticipation.“I also can feel it in my dick.” Daddy from Mandrill Monkey stroked his chin.“God damn it, Daddy.” “I am only telling the truth. My dick can feel it.” He had no remorse, no shame.“Please don’t talk about that in the open, I guess?”“About what? Dick? Why? Because we have ladies here?”“Yes, and it is inappropriate.”“Why? They can talk about their vajayjay if they want to.”“Damn it, Daddy! Stop it!” Captain clasped his mouth and dragged him away.The rest of the Mandrill Monkeys were cackling as if there was no tomorrow. “After analyzing the movement of the
“Sniff… really?” Phantom rubbed his nose against Shadow’s neck.“Yes. I can’t live without you. I swear.” She tried to appear convincing.“But will you die?” He was adamant about Shadow’s life.Why wouldn’t he? He was there when Shadow was at the bottom. He was there when she was suffering. He was there when she died hundreds of times. He could do nothing but watch her from afar. He had no physical body nor the capability to protect her. He was a mere artificial intelligence living in the system. “Phantom… I will cease to exist following the promise of the previous lord. Abah. I can’t die before that. My body has been programmed to do so.”It was her sad life. Cease to exist. She would never experience death like others. She would cease to exist when the time was calling. Her death would be a mysterious death. A sudden death. Abah had promised her up to 1000 years old. She knew her body couldn’t hold that long. According to her calculation, she had 800 years more to go. Plus and min
“Have you improvised their ID card or something?”Shadow turned her head at her desk. Phantom was seen sitting on top of his folders, crossed legs, and caned his chin with his hand. He was grinning wide.“You’re here?” Shadow rested her head on the visitor chair in front of her desk.Phantom’s foot was wagging back and forth, right in front of Shadow. Yet, the girl said nothing to reprimand him. She was just extremely.Phantom waved his hand, some sort of greeting or whatever.“No, the upgraded version. As soon as the card seeped into him, his whole existence was inside the system.” She answered.“When did you develop the new version?” It piqued Phantom’s interest.Shadow merely scoffed and shut her eyes. “Mind checking how well the information settles in?” She meant all the information regarding Amari’s body.It felt like time stopped momentarily. Phantom lost his smile. The usual playful vibe was killed. Phantom killed it. Anger gradually flamed inside his eyes.“Whatever you mean
