King of Underworld - Chapter 12

The Story of Typhon – (1)

Morpheus said that he came up to earth to share dreams with living beings, and he saw a magpie on the ground.

The moment I saw the fallen eagle covered in blood and thought it was strange, the eagle transformed into the god Hermes.

“Morpheus… I need to see Hades right now…”

“What is this…?! The god Hermes?”

So Morpheus hurriedly brought him to the underworld and is now said to be receiving treatment…

“Something urgent must have happened on Olympus!”

Hermes is the messenger of the gods and the messenger who delivers Zeus’ orders.

He is the son of Zeus and Maia, daughter of Atlas, and one of the twelve Olympian gods.

As is always the case with messengers, Hermes is extremely fast.

Strictly speaking, when traveling long distances like the underworld and Olympus, Iris is faster as she uses rainbows to jump over space.

It is safe to say that there are very few gods who can catch Hermes, who is running away at full speed.

A god who boasts such speed is lying at the entrance to the underworld covered in blood?

Even the 12 gods of Olympus were so exalted in their divinity that not many could touch them.

I gathered my confused mind and entered the room where Hermes was lying.

“Lord Hades..”

“….What is this, Hermes?”

The young god who always brought life to Olympus with his cheerful smile and witty antics was in a miserable state.

His face, once a handsome, mischievous boy, was covered in blood and not a single healthy part of his limbs was visible.

Even though the servants diligently changed the bandages and the lesser gods breathed divine power into the body to boost its stamina, the blood continued to flow out.

Hermes glanced at me with one eye that was not covered by a bandage, and tears welled up in his eyes.

“A monster… there was a monster…”

“Tell me more, does Zeus know about this?”

An ordinary human, or even a nymph or a lowly god from nature, would not be able to say a single word to this extent of slander.

They were the only twelve gods who were permitted to sit on the golden throne of Olympus, so they were able to open their mouths.

“…an ordinary banquet held on Olympus… a monster calling himself Typhon… struck Zeus in one blow…”

To summarize his halting speech, it was as follows.

As always, the gods of Olympus were holding a banquet when a giant hand struck the banquet hall…

Zeus was badly wounded by the sudden blow and threw lightning, but the monster only flinched.

The monster, who introduced himself as Typhon, had the form of Gigas, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a snake.

It is said that he had a terrifying appearance with a heat comparable to the fire of Hephaestus flowing from his eyes and a storm raging from his entire body.

The other gods were quickly defeated or fled, and Zeus remained until the end, wielding Squate to resist, but in the end…

“You were saying that it was to the point where you had to use a squeeze?”

“Yes.. Poseidon’s Triaina and my father’s Astraea are completely unscathed..”

Schythe.

It is a sickle made from Adamas that his father Cronus used to cut off Uranus’ genitals.

Her skin is so tough that she has to use a weapon made by Gaia, the Earth Mother.

But Typhon… Typhon, it definitely feels uncomfortable.

Clearly, I knew this name. Somewhere in my now faded memories of a past life.

“Father… Zeus told me to go to the underworld and ask for help while I was held captive by that bastard…”

“Keep talking.”

“That monster laughed and grabbed my leg… Oh no… Please help Olympus, Grandfather!”

Hermes, who boasted of being the fastest man on Olympus, tried to escape quickly from that spot, but was caught in the storm that enveloped Olympus.

Typhon, who let the other gods escape except Zeus, laughed at Hermes and hit him in the leg.

The messenger god’s legs were twisted horribly in that one attack.

And in order to get out of his sight as much as possible, he turned into a small bird and escaped.

Hermes lost consciousness for a moment after hearing those words.

It was only natural that he had been forcing himself to stay conscious in order to tell me about the situation in Olympus.

“Hades… Are you going to help Olympus?”

The Goddess Styx looks at me with a worried expression.

Unlike when the Gigas invaded the Underworld, this time they are fighting on Olympus.

Poseidon in the sea and I in the underworld are truly invincible.

Well then, what about Zeus in the sky?

“There’s a monster that can single-handedly defeat Olympus. This time, it’s really dangerous..”

The answer is none other than the absolute ‘God’ who rules the world.

In the sky, even if all 12 gods of Olympus except me were gathered together, they would not be able to stand against Zeus.

However, the king of the gods and the chief god of Olympus fought in his realm, the sky, with the most powerful weapon there, Squate, and was defeated.

If you hear this and still don’t realize the power of the monster called Typhon, then you are clearly the god of stupidity.

“Once we save Zeus, we have some chance of winning.”

“still..”

“Even if it’s dangerous, I can pull this one out, so don’t worry too much.”

Since Zeus is an immortal god, the monster must have subdued Zeus and imprisoned him somewhere.

Then what I have to do is clear.

Rescuing Zeus and fighting the monster called Typhon.

Even though the powerful Astrape only caused pain and no wounds, it was possible to distract Zeus until he could cut off the bastard’s head with Scutero.

“But… it would be better to take the army of the underworld with you…”

“It’s a meaningless sacrifice.”

If Hermes is caught in the storm that surrounds Typhon’s body, pushing through the water won’t work.

Even if you bring the army of the underworld, Typhon won’t even look at you.

I forcibly turned my head away from the goddess Styx, who had small tears in her eyes, and left the place.

* * *

I returned to the castle of the underworld.

To be exact, I returned to the audience room where my throne was and sat down.

Why do these troublesome things keep happening?

I always have a lot of work to do, and as soon as I feel like the afterlife is a little free, problems arise somewhere else.

He sighed and reached out to the side of the throne.

An ordinary, worn-out looking helmet caught my finger.

Kynee.

So far, no living creature has been able to detect me wearing the Quinae, but will it work on that monster?

One of the three Cyclops brothers, Arges, had no choice but to trust the helmet he had made for himself.

He held the Quinae tightly and donned his weapons and armor.

At my waist I wear the sword Styx, and my whole body is covered in black armor forged in the rivers of the underworld.

After being somewhat armed, Thanatos enters the audience room, flapping his black wings.

He opens his mouth in a serious tone.

“Hades, I have heard that Olympus is in danger.”

“Thanatos.”

“The monster called Typhon is immortal. My power does not work on it like our gods.”

Did Thanatos come to see Typhon?

He roams the world sending clones day and night, so it is possible that he has seen Typhon.

“I just watched that huge beast from afar. When I used my power to extract its soul, it turned its head towards me. Fortunately, it was focused on something so it didn’t chase me..”

If he possesses immortality like us, Typhon is likely a descendant of a god.

It’s said to be the bloodline of the Titan gods, or that it has a similar shape to Gigas, so it may have been sent by Gaia.

Were they sent to finish us off after repelling the first wave of Gigas?

“Tsk. You seem determined to leave right away. Be careful.”

I left the citadel, passing Thanatos.

After a long time, I crossed the river of the afterlife fully armed and stepped into the living world.

Ugh.

Instead of the dull air of the afterlife, the clear, clean air of the earth greets me.

I liked the feel of the land, filled with Demeter’s blessings, but I did not come here to see the earth.

It is night in the world’s time zone right now.

In the divine, transcendent vision, the moon goddess Selene is seen galloping across the sky in a silver chariot.

A black horse and a white horse were running busily, pulling the moon.

But they don’t usually fly that high, and the horses don’t tremble as if they’re afraid of something on the ground.

Perhaps because of Typhon’s influence, I put on my Cyneas and headed towards Mount Olympus.

* * *

The lofty Mount Olympus… was in ruins.

The shrine in the clouds on the mountain was also reduced to a ruin full of rubble, as if someone huge had trampled it.

No one felt the presence of the gods, but a monster resembling Gigas was seen.

A fierce gust of wind spews out from the body of a monster so huge that it covers Mount Olympus.

Whioooooo..

A monster whose shoulders touch the sky and whose head brushes the stars explodes in anger.

Whenever it became angry, the snakes on its head would spit out lightning and venom.

Kwaaaaang! Kukukukuk…

When he struck Mount Olympus with his fist, a suitable peak collapsed.

“Kuaaaaah! Moirai! How dare you deceive me?!”

If the Moirai are the three goddesses of fate, why are they?

“Typhon! What on earth have they done?”

“Delphyne! You were tricked by those old Moirai up in the little mountain!”

A monster with the lower half of a dragon and the upper half of a human spoke to Typhon.

Probably one of Typhon’s monster subordinates.

“The fruit they gave me, saying it would give me great strength, is actually making me weak!”

“Are you talking about those guys..?”

The three goddesses of fate on Mount Nisa helped us.

But since this is in a weakened state, it seems like there’s no chance of winning if we fight it head on, so I’ll have to find Zeus first.

“Ugh… It doesn’t matter! The only one who was a danger to me was Zeus, who was already trapped in the cave!”

Judging by the fact that he was spreading information as if no one was around, it was clear that he was a newly born monster.

This is something that seasoned gods or titans who have experienced war would never do…

There is growing suspicion that this monster was recently created by Grandmother Gaia, who created the Gigantes.

Don’t you know my quinine?

Or maybe he thought I wouldn’t help Olympus.

As they were searching for the cave where Zeus was said to be imprisoned, they saw a strange animal.

A strange animal with the upper body of a goat and the lower body of a fish was hiding in the grass, trembling with fear.

I sighed as I passed the creature, which must have been a transformed version of one of the gods.
