King of Underworld - Chapter 11

Tales of Tartarus – (2)
Kwung! Boom!
Father, the sound of Kronos striking thick bronze reverberates through the underworld.
As expected of the strongest of the Titans, he opened his mouth again as he knocked on the bronze door, enduring the hot wind near it.
“Hades, I heard that Zeus has seized control of the world!”
A howl like an animal, as if in pain due to the heat.
In preparation for an emergency, the three Hecatoncheires brothers look at each other and gather their strength.
I placed my hand on the Styx sword at my waist and approached the bronze door.
The Hecatoncheires brothers suggested that I just ignore them, but they heard my voice anyway.
I have to destroy any hope of ever being released from here, so that I can stop bothering the three brothers.
“What does that have to do with you?”
“Of course it matters! Are you really satisfied with being the master of this dark underworld?!”
I wondered what he was going to say…
Are you trying to sow discord with the news I just told the three brothers?
“If you let me go, I’ll drive out that damn Zeus and give you everything under heaven!”
I’m not interested in power.
How can you, who tried to kill your own children and even started a war, try to persuade me with power?
“No goddess, except Rhea, would give you her arms! Just imagine, the beauty…”
“Abandon your vain hopes and stay locked up forever.”
It’s amazing that you’re still enduring the craze beyond the door.
“Why?! You don’t like my conditions? Those hideous guys are guarding it, but someone like you could probably open the door for a bit!”
‘Those hideous men’ were thrown into Tartarus by their grandfather Uranus,
Refers to the Hecatoncheires brothers who were left alone by Cronus.
When they heard Cronus’ words, their already ominous expressions became even more sinister.
The god who once ruled the world was so rude that he was defeated by us.
“No matter what conditions you put in place, I have no intention of releasing you…”
When I continued to refuse, Kronos shouted in an urgent voice.
“Ugh… Hades! Don’t you dare fight with me, my father! You are my child and Rhea’s child!”

Hades, the lord of the underworld, is one of the most benevolent gods.
It’s hard to believe that the god of the underworld that everyone fears is a good god, but at least that’s how Lethe felt.
A personality that respects even lower-level gods like himself despite having the high status of one of the three gods.
Pluto, the god of wealth, has a simple appearance and does not wear common adornments such as bracelets.
The appearance of a saint who always ponders the lives of the souls who have become his people.
A merciful god who thinks of mortals living short lives rather than the powers of the underworld.
It was very different from the other three gods, Zeus and Poseidon.
Unlike the other two who would forcefully take a goddess they particularly liked, Hades was not a scoundrel like his brothers.
I often feel like I’m being stared at when I wear clothes that reveal my body, so I don’t enjoy blue either.
Why don’t they touch the goddesses when they have enough power and authority?
That may be why she fell for Hades.
I don’t know about Hades, but there are a lot of women who are after the mistress of the underworld.
The various goddesses of Olympus, the goddess Styx, the nymphs who inhabit specific objects or nature.
Finally, even Lethe herself, the goddess of forgetfulness.
So just now, I secretly concentrated the power of oblivion and filled my selfish desires.
In the end, he got caught holding hands, but I liked that he let it go without scolding me too much.
Lethe could see that the kindly god was now truly furious.
“Did you just say father?”
The entire underworld shakes as the god of the underworld looks out through the bronze door and smiles wickedly and twistedly.
His appearance was covered with a pitch-black, cold divine power, and he transformed into a figure of darkness.
In just one word, I could feel how his emotions were fluctuating.
A different level of anger than when he warned Olympus through Iris about the Great Flood.
Lethe was forced to step back in the face of the powerful divine power.
Even the Hecatoncheires brothers who were active in the Titan Wars did not dare to look down on him and stared at Hades’ back with stern expressions.
As if unaware of his rage, Cronus continued to open his mouth beyond the bronze door.
“Even though you and I had a bad relationship, aren’t we father and son? Remember when you were born and held in Leah’s arms…”
“If only I could, I would drain all the blood flowing through my body.”
The floor Hades was standing on was cracking as his emotions burst out.

Instead, his voice settled down surprisingly calmly.
“How dare you! Those born of my father’s blood will judge you!”
“The Erinyes are doing well with me. They visited my citadel not long ago.”
“What?!”
The Erinyes are the three goddesses of vengeance, born of the father of Cronus.
Born from the blood of Uranus’ severed genitals, they were hated and shunned by everyone.
Lethe, the goddess of forgetfulness, knew well about those who resided in the underworld.
Tisiphone, Alecto, and Megaera.
These three goddesses are vengeful goddesses with bronze wings, bloodshot eyes, and snake-like hair.
All crimes are punished, but incest is especially avenged, and among these, he strictly punishes crimes of incest.
Although they were fearsome goddesses of vengeance that everyone avoided, the King of the Underworld approached them without hesitation, and now they were close enough to often befriend them.
“Didn’t you try to kill us first? The Erinyes aren’t as stupid as you think.”
“Hades! I am you..”
“As the Lord of the Underworld, I speak,”
Hades’ cold voice interrupted the words of the god of time and agriculture.
At this moment, his words became a kind of declaration and a law at the same time.
The declaration of the god of the underworld’s divinity put Kronos under pressure.
It may not be to the extent of interfering with fate, but at least in this underground, it will be a prophecy that is difficult to reject.
“You can never get out of there.”
“Ugh… Yes… Do you think I’m any different from you..! Eventually, if someone threatens your authority…”
The voice beyond the bronze door gradually fades away.
Even Kronos could no longer withstand the raging heat.
As the voice slowly faded away, Hades also calmed down.
The eerie, ominous black figure disappears and returns to the gloomy-looking male god.
He opened his mouth to the Hecatoncheires with a bitter smile.
“Haa… The afterlife must have been shaken and the spirits must have been really surprised. I’m sorry, but I guess I’ll have to go back now.”
“Hmm… See you next time then.”
“Today wasn’t a good day to let out some steam.”
“Go back in peace, we are guarding this place.”
As expected, he is a good god.
* * *
You’re crazy. You’re appealing to blood ties and saying you’re my father. Did you think I’d let you get away with it?
What? I’ll divide the sky between you and give you the goddesses, so just let me go?
The underworld was shaken quite a bit by that crazy talking felon.
If you can’t even control your simple emotions properly, that’s not good for a monarch…
“Hey…Hades.”
On the day we returned to the underworld, the goddess Lethe, who had been walking quietly since a while ago, opened her mouth.
He had the same blank-faced look as usual, but somehow he seemed to sympathize with me.
“I remember just now, I can make it a little bit blurry..”
“…it’s okay.”
I said that because I was thinking of the day I was so angry…
But it wasn’t that bad. I just felt a little uncomfortable.
First of all, I need to take care of the people of the underground world who were just shocked by the earthquake rather than my own feelings.
When I go back, the Goddess Styx will nag me again.
As we climbed up a bit, the soldiers working there became very nervous and clutched their weapons.
It seems like the enemy thought I had invaded because of my mistake just now.
“Lord Hades. There’s a vibration deep underground…”
“Whatever the problem is with the sinners of Tartarus…”
I told them not to worry about it and passed them by.
I should hurry back to the castle and get to work.
“Lord Hades!”
“Morpheus? What’s going on?”
Morpheus, the god of dreams and a male god with impressive lime hair.
He was one of the gods of the underworld, the son of Erebos, the god of darkness, and Nyx, the goddess of night.
He always had a gentle and soft impression, like Hypnos, the god of sleep.
For some reason, he had a very anxious expression on his face right now.
It is now night, so it is time to leave the underground for a while and convey the dream to the living beings.
“Ugh… The god Hermes was lying there, covered in blood, at the entrance to the underworld!”
