Chapter 1985 Investigate Tartarus I

"I think there is a need to investigate Tartarus." Adrian stated.

"Are you sure about that? Maybe we should wait for my father before you do something like that." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated as he is not a fan of Tartarus.

"If my suspicion is correct then something happened in Tartarus. It is not like the God of Death Hades is receiving constant communication to everything that happens there. Even the Hecatoncheires are not always seeing through every corner of that realm. Something must have slipped inside and was not reported which means it is my job to see it." Adrian stated.

"You still have to go to the trials of the kings. The starting trial would be five hours from now." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated.

"I agree with the prince as well even though I did not think that I will be saying that. It is dangerous for you to go alone in Tartarus as that realm itself is a prison." Megaera stated.

"If you are worried about me then you should come along then. Do not worry as I will be able to protect both of you. I am the mediator of death which means I have full control of a death realm if I focus my mind to it. Even Tartarus would be smooth sailing... I think." Adrian stated.

"You really are very convincing. Should we go with him? My father might scold me if we let him go alone." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated as he looked at Megaera.

"If the prince is going then I should be going as well but be warned that I have told both of you that this is a bad idea. Will the champion create a portal for us to enter to go to Tartarus?" Megaera stated.

"Why do we need a portal? We have the entrance right here. We need to retrace the steps of the being that went inside." Adrian stated as he pointed at the pit which made both the God of Rebirth Zagreus and Megaera gulp.

The sudden shock and hesitation could be seen on the faces of the two as they have never been to Tartarus before. Only the God of Death Hades has been to Tartarus before and even he dislikes going there. Adrian looked at them and waited for a few minutes as they seem to be in need of time to prepare mentally.

"I think that is enough time. Let us go!" Adrian stated as he suddenly snapped his fingers which made all of them vanish from their location and reappear at the very center of the pit.

"We are not ready! Megaera hold me!" The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated as he suddenly clung towards Megaera like a scared child even though he has the body of a young adult and the age of over a thousand.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

Meanwhile in the mortal realm,

"Hachoo!" The God of Death Hades suddenly sneezed.

"Oh my! My darling is being changed by the mortal world. I did not think that a god could catch a cold." The Goddess of Life Persephone stated.

"It is not that I am feeble to catch mortal sickness my love. It must be due to someone missing me as you know that we have a god in our pantheon that can do that as a prank for other gods. Maybe it is our child that misses us and thinks of us. Oh! This is such a delicacy. Are they made of blackberries?" The God of Death Hades stated as he started eating the fruit tart that the Goddess of Life Persephone is feeding him.

"They are made of darkenberries which is locally grown here. Such bounty! As expected from the blessings of the Tree of Life and Death." The Goddess of Life Persephone stated as she took a bite of the fruit tart as well and felt incredibly refreshed.

The god and goddess made hearts in the air while the elves and even the fruit tart vendor was sweating bullets. They know that the two beings in front of them were gods even if they are hiding their auras. It is only the players that think that they are a loving couple NPC on vacation in Avalon.

"Where are you, Champion Equinox? Please come back quickly!" The elven elders prayed but Adrian cannot hear their prayers since he is not a god.

Meanwhile, Adrian has finally arrived at Tartarus, and it was burning and desolate as he remembered. The three rivers of the underworld could be seen flowing to Tartarus as well since Charon needs to deliver souls here as well, but they should never be drunk upon. One would never know what side-effect they might get if they dive or drink from one of the rivers in the underworld.

"You can stop screaming now. We are here." Adrian stated as he made sure to stop their descend when they were about to hit the ground.

"Ehem. I was just warming up my lungs just in case I need to recite spells." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated.

"Follow me as the trace of the living is starting to wane. We should be fast before I no longer have it locked on." Adrian stated as he started to fly towards the direction of a large volcano.
