Chapter 132: Chapter132-Tyr

"What the hell are you doing?!"

John instinctively pushed [Deception] away, but the expected unpleasant texture didn't occur.

In fact, the feather turned into light as soon as it entered John's mouth and merged into his body.

At the same time, a dialogue box popped up in front of John.

[New Class Obtained: Death Herald]

[Currently Awakened Classes: Alchemist (Level 145), Trickster (Level 35), Debauchery (Level 24), Transgression (Level 1), Death Herald (Level 1)]

[Current Player Level: 62]

Seeing this, John couldn't help but laugh.

While most players were still struggling with their second class change, he had awakened five classes at once, each incredibly powerful!

The Trickster class replaced truth with lies, Debauchery summoned gray-black mist, Transgression controlled black flames, and so on.

Each class provided John with immense combat capabilities.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that John now had full confidence in taking down [Betrayal] on his own, smashing his head into his chest!

"Alright, let's go hunt down that Dragon of Death and Sin."

Although the process was a bit lengthy, Hades was satisfied to see John swallow the feather.

It was his little joke, as the feather had no physical form and was just to mess with John.

But under the circumstances, John had no choice.

Even if the feather were real, could John refuse? From the start, he had no right to refuse Hades.

Their positions were unequal, and Hades could have killed him anytime, turning him into a wandering soul in the Underworld.

[Main Quest Completed: Obtain Hades' Power. Exit the Dungeon?]

"No, not yet!"

Without hesitation, John chose to continue.

Since Hades had promised to help him kill Falms, why not take advantage of it?

Killing Falms would undoubtedly yield even greater rewards for John!

However, John didn't realize that there is no such thing as a truly free lunch; anything taken must eventually be repaid.

After restraining Hera once more, Hades led John and the others back to the palace.

Falms instantly awoke, sensing the presence of the Underworld and lowered his proud head.

"My king, you have returned and brought back a human?"

"Hmm... Falms, how long have you been in the Underworld?"

"Over four thousand two hundred years, my king. Falms is willing to serve you for the rest of my life."

"Over four thousand years already? By now, you should have the ability to ascend to [godhood]. With all the power you've accumulated, I believe you fully deserve to become a god."

"Whether it's godhood or demigod status, it's just a title. My only mission is to serve by your side, my king."

Hearing this, John was speechless.

Seeing this, John remained calm.

For a long time, John had trained countless times on how to react when someone got close.

Compared to Qing, Falms' punch was weaker!

In an instant, black flames erupted around John.

Resembling the Ghost Rider, he swung his burning chains at Falms!

Seeing this, Falms was visibly surprised.

He looked at the ominous black flames and decided against grabbing the chains, sidestepping instead.

Abyssal Dragonfire erupted from his palm, engulfing John completely!

However!

A powerful shockwave rippled out, effortlessly shredding the Abyssal Dragonfire.

John brushed the flames off his shoulder, completely unharmed.

"It seems your flames have no effect on me. Want to try mine?"

"You talk too much!"

Falms crouched, his black wings unfolding behind him, and launched himself into the air, then dove at John like a mortar shell!

There was no doubt that if John were hit by a creature covered in scales like this, he would be done for.

In truth, John wasn't the type to go head-to-head. The reason he clashed with Falms was just to buy time.

Now, he had enough time!

A giant carnivorous plant grew from beneath John's feet, its bloody maw snapping at Falms.

Yet Falms easily tore through the thick flesh.

But the scene that followed made Falms gasp in shock!

Then, suddenly, the wandering soul that had always lingered outside the palace appeared behind John, its blood-red eyes fixed on Falms, making him feel as though his very soul was trembling!

For a brief moment, Falms was distracted.

In that instant, John condensed the black flames into a spear and shot it straight at Falms' forehead!

Unfortunately, striking a winged creature capable of flight was no easy task.

The flame spear merely grazed Falms' shoulder, failing to penetrate his defenses.

However, one thing was confirmed: this soul was indeed extraordinary!

Even a Demigod-tier being like Falms was affected by it.

John's earlier predicament now made perfect sense. But who exactly was this powerful soul?

Hades provided the answer.

"Tyr, I should have warned you to stay away from the palace."

As Hades spoke, John saw the soul suddenly freeze in place, trembling uncontrollably like a leaf in the wind.

"I... I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to, Hades! Please, please don't torment me!"
