Conqueror of The Abyss

“I will destroy you—” the young man knelt down and embraced the lifeless, pale body. Small body, much smaller than the body of a stocky man. The girl had been killed by the curse, yet her face did not look tormented, as if she had died in a calm state. He killed this kid. “Lord Of The Abyss-Hades!” In the Abyss, no one knows. What is the height of the place, because-each floor of the Abyss connects between worlds. So the depth won't be measurable. But apart from that, the Abyss is ruled by an arrogant and evil god, Hades. A vile God who wants a holy soul, to be made an offering of his power. The mightiest God who ever tried to scorch the world with his hot fire. Although he failed to do so because the Lord Of The Seas managed to extinguish the fire. “Why must Chloe... why ... ” the man could do nothing but cry over the body of his sister, Chloe. He has sworn, to finish off Hades, or he who is finished off by Hades. But to get to the bottom of the Abyss, he had to train himself, because the Curse Of The Abyss awaited. If he can't withstand the curse, then he will die—or live eternally in the form of the undead.

Way Home

Cleon and the captain walk down a small village that is quite densely populated. Cold air envelops the territory, because it is now the middle of winter. Unlike the captain, Cleon was cold, obviously, because the captain was currently enjoying wine under the pretext of warming himself. "so, how did you decide on the troops?" Ask the captain to break the silence between them. "I will resign, maybe tomorrow. At that time, I need your help, right?" "Sure, leave it to us, whatever we have to do." The captain agreed. His body is still not fit because he was injured in the face, but not a problem. In the past, his body was almost split in two when he was young, so a minor injury like this was not a big problem for an experienced captain.

"Maybe I'll get beaten up by the commander, but that's not a problem. I've been beaten up a lot lately by people, even Elysia too."Cleon laughed, considering the trap Elysia set up was too obvious for a trap. "That kid, she's indeed the strongest Conqueror, but she's forcing herself too much to be seen by you, Cleon. At least praise her when she wakes up, okay?" The captain is also experienced in women's issues, he understands Hestia and Elysia's feelings, as well as Cleon's confused feelings. "Also, if you are confused to choose between 2 houses, buy both houses, Cleon. Take good care of both houses."Captain, I don't understand."Cleon looked at him with a flat face, he spoke like an old man, using allusions that he did not understand. "One day you will understand, boy." The captain smiled, they stopped by a small bar that was empty of visitors because it was late. "Welcome!"Greet the owner of the bar who is preparing to close. "Sorry to interrupt the evening, we-wanted to order food." The captain spoke hesitantly, he felt uncomfortable knowing this man was going to close his shop. "Haha, no problem. Here's the menu we made." In this small village, there is a bar that is even like a restaurant, the food is also not playing, it seems delicious all. "I ordered a sweet chicken."The captain ordered "" Well then, I'm an omelette and Black Coffee." "Hey, you're strong with black coffee, haha you challenge me Yes, well I Plus Black Coffee!" Captain Spirit. The competitive edge is rising.

"When did I challenge you?"Asked Cleon. "we'll be ready soon!"hurry they cook the food " but boy, isn't this a bar? Why do we only order coffee?"now he even regrets it. But what can you do, right? They chatted lightly, while waiting for the ordered food to be ready.

At the inn, Hestia and Elysia are alone. No one bothers them. Elysia also got up and pretended to be strong by standing facing the window. "You like Cleon, don't you, Hestia?"Elysia asked, looking at the beautiful moon. No snow falling from the sky. "That's it."Hestia answered briefly, she also knew that Elysia liked Cleon. "I see, take it easy, I have no intention of taking it from you. I am a stranger to him, while you, have been close to him since last year."Elysia smiled. "He is my naughty student, nothing more, and he, tomorrow will graduate, becoming a Conqueror that I recommend to the Guild."

"Wouldn't that just show Cleon your feelings, miss Elysia?" Hestia did not change her position, remained lying down. The cold did not bother her because she used to live in a cold region. "Yes, it is."But Hestia, I want to be familiar with you, from now on, try to stop with that Miss mu name, it feels disgusting to know." She walked towards Hestia and sat down beside her. Hestia's long black hair was beautiful. Her thin hair made Elysia envious. "I envy your beautiful appearance."He said. Before finally Elysia closed the window, lay down, and slept.

This night seemed very long for the two of them, Elysia who continued to babble while holding back pain, and Hestia who was getting tired of hearing Elysia Babble. "Hestia? Hestia?" unmoved, She glanced at Hestia who had fallen asleep, her face very peaceful. "How could she be so peaceful." She said with a soft smile. "She's much younger than me." True, Hestia is only 16 years old, but she is already this great. Maybe at the age of 20, Hestia can become a very great high-level magician. "I'm looking forward to it."

Finally, morning came. Cleon and the captain really didn't come back, they slept elsewhere for fear that something bad would happen if they slept with Hestia and Elysia. Dangerous. But they returned in the morning. Cleon and the captain came back laughing, they seemed to have discussed something fun. "Yo Hestia, you're awake."Cleon sat next to Hestia, 'I like her, but like the captain said, I can't express my feelings to her right now.'But in return, Cleon will pay attention to Hestia. "W-why are you acting up again, scary eyes?!" Hestia's face flushed red as Cleon gently touched the top of her head. "No, I just had a bad dream about you being eaten by Rafflesia."Cleon said with his flat eyes. "At least don't dream of me like that, fool!" "Haha, both of you. Cleon, the rest is up to you. I'm gonna get ready to go home, okay?" the captain walked towards the bag and his greatsword, tidying up the contents of the bag. "Hestia, Elysia, I need your help."Cleon didn't say much more, he explained everything to the two of them. He said he wanted to resign today.

Of course Cleon's request was immediately accepted gladly by both of them. However, Elysia strongly recommends Cleon to become a Conqueror without becoming a royal gatekeeper. Then, Hestia also agreed, so the mission she would go through would not be too boring. Because usually, if there's no Cleon, then the mission never starts. Missions will become more frequent than they used to be. They totally agree on the point. "Then, be prepared. We're leaving for the city right now. And Elysia, thank you for your help. Sorry to Bother You."Cleon smiled, touching Elysia's shoulder. But soon Elysia confirmed Cleon's position, moving her hands over her head. "you shouldn't have distinguished me."Say it with the blink of an eye on Hestia. Is it possible to share this guy? suddenly a strange thought appeared in Hestia's mind. "Haha, all right."Cleon stood up, took his things and immediately went downstairs, paid the lodging fee.

"The price—isn't it too cheap?"Ask Cleon below. The receptionist didn't care about everything Cleon said, she still charged money at a low price. No Play, 1 Night 4 people only 20 bronze coins. Even bread alone costs 10 bronze coins, or 1 silver coin. Usually the price of the inn was 5 silver coins per 1 night, "you and your comrades have saved this village from destruction. So we will be very kind."Obviously The Receptionist. "Come on, Cleon, give it to me." The captain patted his on the shoulder, giving Cleon confidence. They gave special treatment to Cleon's group, why wasn't it accepted?

"Everything is ready? Then, come on!"Cleon picked up his bag, held his sword and walked away from the inn. He walked hand in hand with the captain as he talked about little things that didn't matter at all. "Are all men like that?"Elysia Asked. They were a little amused when they heard the crisp discussion between the captain and Cleon. " Let~ " retorted Cleon as he resumed his conversation with the captain.
