Grrrrr~

The Cerberus still stood guard against Kim YuWon and Hercules.

Although they still remembered being struck by Hercules, they didn't back down.

They did it to protect someone.

Step, step-.

Kim YuWon took a step towards the Cerberus.

"I haven't come to fight you. Move aside."

Grrr, grrr-!

Finally, the Cerberus bared their fangs.

Numerous Cerberus approached menacingly.

Although YuWon tried to threaten them with his Gigantification, it seemed the Cerberus wouldn't budge from their path.

"There's no other choice."

Thump, boom-.

[The power of a giant resides in your arm]

He had no choice but to use his Gigantification and confront the Cerberus.

As he got closer, the distance seemed to shrink as if he could touch them with his hand.

At that moment...

Creak, creak-.

The Cerberus lowered their tails.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

"...?"

The Cerberus quickly crouched down.

Some Cerberus split in two and opened an orderly path.

It was as if someone had given them an order.

-Go ahead... enter.

A weary voice resonated from the deepest and distant part of the underground.

Kim YuWon and Hercules followed the path that appeared before them. The staircase leading underground was so long that the end couldn't be seen.

And at the end of that staircase.

There was a large black door waiting for the two.

Creak-.

Hercules opened the door without hesitation.

And inside...

-You've come.

It was a much clearer voice than before. Moreover, it was a familiar and unforgettable voice.

Everything was black walls, floor, and ceiling. And in that spacious room, there was only one person.

"Great... Uncle?"

On a grand throne.

Sat a strange and bizarre skeleton with barely any flesh left.

It was an appearance that seemed almost impossible to be alive.

-I apologize for being seen in this state.

He was the Father of the Dead, the King of this hell. He was sitting in such an embarrassing manner.

Hercules approached without hesitation and asked.

"What exactly has happened?"

-It's as you see. I am dead.

"You're... dead..."

Hercules turned to Kim YuWon, looking at him with an expression of disbelief.

It was an expression that said, "What has happened?".

He had clearly told him he would be alive.

Kim YuWon didn't meet Hercules' gaze. Instead, he looked at the strange and bizarre skeleton sitting on the grand throne.

Tsu, tsu, tsu-.

Death Energy flowed from the skeleton that was Hades.

He was clearly dead.

But that was only for now.

"He will come back to life. This time, he will."

[The King of the Dead gazes upon those on the boundary between life and death]

[The King of the Dead venerates those who conquer death]

Hades was conquering death.

Although he was dead, Hades was preparing for his resurrection after death.

Tsu, tsu-.

In Kim YuWon's eyes, something subtle could be seen.

Hades' body, which originally only had bones and some flesh attached, was gradually regaining its original form.

"Resurrection of the Dead (死者蘇生)."

There was only one person in this Tower.

Someone who could conquer death and return to life.

That was Hades.

The Resurrection of the Dead was a skill only passed down in legends. It was unknown who learned it or if the skill truly existed.

The fact that the dead returned to life.

It was as rare a case as going back to the past.

"If there's a variable, it's that the opponent is Foolish Chaos..."

Kim YuWon looked at Hades, who had turned into a skeleton, with relief.

Hades' scythe and Foolish Chaos' hand collided.

Foolish Chaos's hand, which blocked the scythe with his claw, trembled. The collision cracked the floor of the room and caused the Great Palace of Olympus to shake.

But that was only for a moment.

Crack, crunch.

In the instant Hades' scythe began to crack...

-...!

-It's a waste of points, but...

Hades' scythe broke.

-Your death will be worth more than that.

Foolish Chaos' other arm pierced through Hades' chest.

Thud, thud.

Blood flowing from Hades' chest dripped onto the floor. When Foolish Chaos withdrew the arm that had pierced through Hades' chest, Hades' body slumped forward weakly.

Thud.

Foolish Chaos looked at Hades, who lay collapsed on the ground and barely breathing.

And then, without further ado, Foolish Chaos turned his gaze towards the Players who had entered the room.

-Erase the memories of this place. Leave no trace behind.

With those words...

Sssshhh...

The purple mist that filled the room began to disperse outward. The mist spread throughout Olympus as Foolish Chaos raised his hand into the air.

The floor was stained with blood.

And the floors and walls cracked.

Craaack, crunch, crunch...

Then, under Foolish Chaos' magic, the floor adhered, and the traces of the battle disappeared.

-With your death...

Creak...

Foolish Chaos' foot stepped on Hades' neck.

-Now, Olympus will disappear.

Grrrr...

Sssshhhhhh...

The scene came to an end with the sound of Hades' neck snapping.

In the landscape that returned to normal, only Hades' bones remained.

Having lost the fight, he didn't die as Foolish Chaos had predicted.

-I let my guard down... even though I tried to justify it, it wasn't just that. Even if we were to fight again, the outcome wouldn't be different.

Hades recalled his fight with Foolish Chaos.

From this wide seat where he could do nothing, he thought and pondered about Foolish Chaos.

Who was he, and what power was he using?

What did it mean to waste points?

Although he thought about it, he didn't come to any conclusion. He didn't even think that the result would change if they were to fight again.

However...

Even when facing Foolish Chaos, YuWon's eyes didn't seem to waver.

-It seems you found out I was alive and came looking for me.

Hades knew YuWon well.

He didn't believe that YuWon had come here by mere chance.

And he didn't believe that he was only concerned about his well-being.

-Is it a situation where you need me?

"Yes."

The answer came immediately.

Hercules looked at YuWon. Was it such a dangerous situation that they couldn't afford to have Hades absent?

A brief silence.

The corner of YuWon's lips curved up.

"Not now, but later."

-Later?

It was a meaningful statement.

As if everything would be resolved when that time came.

YuWon spoke with assurance in his voice.

"When you have regained your strength and everything is over. You just have to return to your place as if nothing happened."

-Perhaps that means...?

"Yes."

While working together with Hercules on the Labors.

Hades died, and the mission was ruined. Olympus had suspended all its activities due to the fight against Hera.

"We've been hit hard up until now."

It was the Twelfth Labor.

When YuWon received the request from Olympus, he considered this moment as a turning point.

Only up to this point...

"Now, the counterattack will begin."

He had already won half of the battle, so to speak.
