King of Underworld - Chapter 68
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
The Story of Persephone – (3)
As we hastily drove our chariots north, we soon discovered the Gigantes slaughtering the nymphs.
Nymphs dying with screams, and a blonde-haired goddess struggling to resist.
Kwajik!
“Gyaaaah!”
“Please save me! Demeter!”
“Ugh… I don’t want to die…!”
She was a goddess I hadn’t seen at the banquet held in Olympus last time.
When you look at the strength, appearance, and combat experience you feel…
She appeared to be a young goddess, born less than 200 years ago.
The divine power that made one feel like their parents were powerful gods seemed to be just below the level of the 12 gods of Olympus.
Doo doo doo doo-
It was a bit far, but the ghost horse galloped across the land quickly, so we arrived quickly.
What is visible is the Gigas Command entity lifting the Goddess by the neck with a sadistic smile.
“You look like a young god, so curse your fate.”
The power felt from him seemed to be slightly lower than that of Apollo or Ares, or perhaps one of the 12 Olympian gods.
And there are three others with just as much power as that guy.
The Gigas who cling to Mount Etna and dig up Typhon’s body are of a lower rank.
A horde of monsters that appear to number in the hundreds to thousands.
A lot of maggots have gathered here.
Phew-
He summoned the viand and struck hard.
In an instant, Gigas’s head explodes and a trail of blood spreads across the ground.
He drove the ghost horse, lifted the exhausted goddess into his arms, and placed her on the back of his chariot.
This chariot of Hades is the safest place on the battlefield.
“Are you okay?”
No reply came back, but that didn’t matter.
Judging by the ichor flowing out of his body, he must have been seriously injured.
“What the hell are you!”
“Even if you are an Olympian god, there is only one more! Cover!”
“What are you doing all by yourself…”
A large number of worms notice the death of their comrade and swarm in.
Mount Etna is a little different from your average mountain.
Any god with a certain level of power can destroy a mountain.
Especially if it’s Typhon’s body.
But why is the seal that holds him still in place?
The sheer size of Mount Etna, the divine power of Zeus, the seals made by the gods themselves, etc.
Because we have made various preparations.
A quick look at the state of Mount Etna…
“Take it-”
“What do you think you can do by yourself?”
Kwaaaaang!!!
How far did you think it was? Yes, it was the state of Mount Etna.
Those horrible monsters, the Gigas, seemed capable of digging through mountains if given just a little time.
But since I’m interfering, the commanding entity will rush in to stop me…
Those who are on par with the lower gods…
“Eurytus! Let us join forces!”
“You create an opening, Toas!”
Three of them, far more powerful than the other Gigas, surround my chariot.
Even if we just have Dionysus and Ares, these two guys would be enough to handle it.
Now that I’ve arrived here, things are pretty much settled.
There’s no rush now, so let’s kill him slowly.
He buried his viand in the ground and used his divine power to create a path to the afterlife.
Jejejeok-
It seems like it would cause too much damage to the earth, which is Demeter’s domain,
Since Gigas attacked, I guess you’ll understand to some extent.
The afterlife is not just an underground world.
Another world, completely separate from this world.
You can never get there by just digging down into the ground.
“What the hell! That’s Hades, the god of the underworld!”
“Eww! Die!”
“Even if you give me three gifts, I’m alone!”
“Those who have already lost, come to this world!”
If I could connect the world like this, wouldn’t it be possible?
A wave of translucent dead crawled up to the ground, clinging to the Gigas.
These are the forces that do not die even if they die. They will continue to resurrect unless the underworld is completely blown away.
In fact, the plan to quickly capture Typhon without the eyes of Olympus failed.
The three Gigas before my eyes still seemed to harbor hope.
“Take it!!!!”
A huge wooden club swinging overhead.
Oh. I’m using some strength? That was the thought that occurred to me as I pulled out the Styx sword from my waistband and held it out.
Oh my god!
It’s no use gritting your teeth and striking with both hands.
It wasn’t wielded by Zeus or Poseidon…
The other guy’s eyes turned to the corner of my mouth and he lunged at me in a frenzy.
Gigantization, super strength, rapid regeneration, consecration of the earth, etc.
“Damn it! Don’t underestimate us, Hades!”
“Wait a minute…! Eurytus!! Don’t rush in excitedly…”
Hey, isn’t it rude to laugh on the battlefield?
You seem very angry. But…
Crunch- slurp!

“Kuaaaaak!”
It’s so ridiculous that you guys have this vain hope that you’ll win.
Are you trying to beat me when you can’t even run away right now?
Transparent Helmet, did you think you’d get beat up by Quine without it?
If this is an all-out war, I will lose.
But this is just a skirmish, the prophecy will not be triggered.
* * *
As I watched the dead killing the remnants of Gigas, I felt the presence of a god approaching quickly.
Is that flying here from the sky… Hermes?
Hermes, holding the caduceus, quickly looks around and makes eye contact with me.
The messenger god approaches me with a slightly relieved expression.
“Uncle Hades! Did Gigas attack?”
“Yes, it seems to be Gaia’s blow as mentioned in the prophecy of Prometheus.”
“They came to steal Typhon’s body. It would have been really dangerous if my uncle hadn’t been there.”
Hermes, who was looking around a little more, is surprised to see the peak of Mount Etna.
We were fighting earlier and I blew some of it away…
“Huh…! The entire mountain peak… Did my grandfather do it?!”
“…it was a mistake.”
“…Typhon’s body almost came loose.”
I adjusted it so that it would not affect Typhon’s seal as much as possible, but
Those guys were pretty strong, so there was nothing I could do.
“But it doesn’t seem like Prometheus’ prophecy will end here.”
“You summoned the forces of the afterlife earlier, and I guess that means that if this world and the afterlife are connected, we will be victorious.”
“Hmm… you could see it that way, but I feel uneasy about something.”
Hermes frowns and ponders.
Could this really be the attack spoken of in the prophecy?
“First, go to the underworld and report the current situation on Mount Etna. Also, tell them that all enemies have been killed, so there is no need for support.”
“Do you intend to check Typhon’s seal?”
“I will check for a while, so don’t worry about Olympus and prepare for other places…”
There may be additional attacks from Gaia, hidden ambushes, or more remnants of Gigas remaining.
I think it would be better if I collected the seal myself.
This place, Typhon’s seal, is an important strategic point.
That’s why we need to check the condition of Mount Etna and infuse it with divine power to make it more solid…
“And ask Demeter if she has discovered the home of Gigas.”
“Yes, I understand…”
“Let me ask her! She’s my mother!”
The blonde-haired goddess who had been listening to my conversation with Hermes suddenly interrupted.
She looks at me with bright eyes…
“Are you the daughter of Demeter?”
“Yes! And my father is Zeus!”
Daughter of Demeter and Zeus?
* * *
Hermes turned away, and I came face to face with the blonde-haired goddess.
When I see that smile that seems to say, “Ask me anything you’re curious about,” I’m reminded of someone…
“Hermes, the messenger god, will come and tell you… There is no need for you to ask Demeter.”
“Lord Hades. But what I’m saying to my mother…”
“Okay, since I’m the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, you can just call me uncle.”
“Yes! Uncle Hades!”
The blonde goddess, reminiscent of a warm spring day, answered with a bright smile.
…? Why do you like it so much?
Well, I have a position too…
“So what should I call you, nephew?”
“Please call me Korea! Everyone who is close to me calls me that!”
Nickname? Why are you asking me to call you by your nickname?
We saw each other for the first time today.
“What is your name?”
“Please call me Kore!”
“…I’m saying your name, not your nickname.”
She seemed to have a sullen expression for a moment,
He soon answered with a big smile.
“I’m Persephone! Uncle Hades!”
“what?”
For a moment, it felt like I had been hit in the head with a blunt object.
A very old memory from a past life that I had forgotten along with Mint.
Knowledge that surges like a river overflowing its banks.
Clearly, from my memories of my past life… wasn’t I Hades’ wife?
Eros, the god of love, son of Aphrodite and Ares.
While he was practicing archery, he accidentally hit Hades with an arrow that made him fall in love with him.
Hades happened to see Persephone and fell in love with her, so he kidnapped her to the underworld…
“Uncle Hades? What are you thinking? Is there anything I can do to help you…”
Well then, isn’t it possible that Eros is practicing his arrows around here too?
Having come this far, I used my divine powers to detect the presence of people around me…
Shuuu-
I belatedly discovered an arrow flying towards me from a close distance.
Love, a hot and passionate emotion, can come suddenly, anytime, anywhere.
That is why Eros’ arrows were also fast and stealthy.
But if you are on guard in advance, it won’t be to the level of being hit.
I quickly turned my body to avoid the arrow flying from behind.
Swoosh-
Wait, if I dodge the arrow, in this direction…!
width.
“Huh?”
