Hades felt somewhat aggrieved, and his eyes drooped slightly.
But he knew he couldn't argue with Persephone, so he could only stubbornly say:
"Madam, I didn't..."
"Nothing? After all these years, I know exactly what kind of fart you're going to let out even if you're just sticking your butt out."
Hades wanted to say that he was a god and he didn't fart.
But he held back.
Persephone, observing Hades' attitude, snorted twice, seemingly quite satisfied, and said:
"If you really want to make it up to me, then go out and fight them as soon as possible."
"Anyway, we have the opportunity now. I've been annoyed with those guys for a long time."
Hades chuckled twice but said nothing more.
But this also put aside his slight doubts about Persephone.
How could his beloved wife possibly favor that insignificant man?
He's definitely overthinking it.
Just as he smiled, a blue-green ghost rampaged through the corridors of the underworld, bouncing back and forth.
Finally, it bumped into Hades's butt with a splat.
Hades was startled by the faint impact.
When I turned around, it turned out to be a little devil.
He frowned, about to ask the brat why he was in such a hurry.
The little devil, however, saw Hades and his wife first and quickly called out:
"Ha... Lord Hades! Something terrible has happened!"
"That human hero went to Bronze Castle and is now fighting Lord Thanatos!"
"They were fighting fiercely inside, and everyone outside could hear it clearly!"
Upon hearing this news, Hades' head buzzed.
Huh? What?
That dog thief actually got into a fight with Thanatos?
Persephone seemed to realize something as well, and his previously relaxed expression disappeared.
Instead, there was intense tension and anxiety.
"not good!"
"Quick, let's get there right away! Hopefully, everyone's alright!"
With that, Persephone lifted her white skirt and hurried off toward the bronze fortress.
Seeing his wife's anxiety, Hades frowned, feeling somewhat troubled again.
Why is the lady so concerned about that dog thief...?
So Hades followed leisurely behind his wife, muttering something unpleasantly:
"That kid won't get into any trouble..."
In the distance, Persephone heard these words and saw Hades' unhurried reaction.
She turned around, her brows furrowed, and stamped her foot angrily as she began to berate Hades:
"Oh my god! Are you stupid?!"
"Thanatos is that woman's child, Victor is definitely going for revenge!"
"If we don't hurry, Thanatos will be killed by Viktor!"
Hades: "Huh?"
...
Erica calmly gazed at Thanatos before her.
She stood there, panting, her body slightly hunched.
Her body was covered with countless wounds.
She looked down at the bleeding wound in her hand with a blank expression, but felt no fear whatsoever.
It seems that the repeated deaths have numbed her.
She seemed to feel no pain anymore.
Thanatos also stopped in his tracks, staring at Erica in front of him.
It clearly sensed that this human life was nearing its limit.
The opponent didn't even have the energy to fight back.
This human has failed.
Even if she were to be resurrected, her exhaustion would still leave her vulnerable to being slaughtered at will.
Finally, Thanatos raised his scythe and aimed it at Erica.
"Humanity is over."
The cold blade was raised, and a flash of silver light appeared.
In the next instant, its body transformed into dozens of pitch-black shadows.
A wisp of black mist drifted by, and dozens of identical shadows circled around Erica.
As the cold light descended, dozens of shadows swept across the sky.
It was as if a silver net descended from space, rushing towards Erica.
At the same time, dozens of scythes pierced through Erica's body.
The bloodstains spread in the blink of an eye, and all the dozens of phantoms vanished in an instant.
Only Thanatos's scythe remained, already pierced into the opponent's abdomen.
Even the evil eye at the tip of the scythe was staring intently at Erica.
Seeing this, Thanatos surprisingly showed a victorious smile, something he hadn't done in a long time.
As the Grim Reaper, its scythe has the effect of guaranteeing death.
As long as this scythe remains inside this human body.
Even if she were to be resurrected, she would die the instant the resurrection was complete.
Thanatos, looking down at the expressionless Erica, said calmly:
"I acknowledge your talent. If given time, you might actually be able to defeat me."
"But now, you should face up to your current mediocrity."
Erica lowered her head, feeling a sharp pain spreading rapidly from her abdomen to her limbs.
She stared blankly at the slender scythe on her abdomen, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, and a warm sensation spreading through her abdomen.
But suddenly,
"Oh."
A disdainful laugh rang out, and Erica's lips curled up slightly.
Thanatos quickly sensed that something was wrong with this reaction.
Then, Erica's voice slowly rang out:
"The professor is absolutely right."
"Gods are always so arrogant and conceited when facing humanity."
Erica reached out with difficulty and grasped the corner of Thanatos's tattered cloak.
The next second, she slowly raised her head, a burning and resolute flame igniting in her eyes:
