Chapter 22 Conversion of Contracts

"The ......"

Besephone lowered her head in contemplation, her palms together hanging in front of her, rubbing against each other nervously, looking uncomfortable as if she wanted to say something.

Demos immediately came to his senses, jumped up from the bricks, took a few steps over, and asked eagerly:

"Tell me, Betsephone, you must have a way, won't you?"

Actually, this method ...... There is a certain risk, and it may not be successful......"

"What is it!

Before Besephone could finish speaking, Demos snatched the words:

"Tell me what the solution is! As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will try!"

Betherphone swallowed hard and replied to Demos with a solemn expression:

"Actually, there is an unwritten rule in the underworld, 'Don't look back on the Yellow Spring Road'! However, once a soul is willing to look back on the Yellow Spring Road before falling into the eighteen layers of hell, they can escape the punishment of hell and immediately return to the human world, the so-called 'return to the yang'. God of Darkness, you should remember the bard of the gods, Euros!"

"Eulate, the legend about the constellation of Lyra?"

Demos, of course, remembered the human man's name very well.

One day, half a year ago, when he was fighting Poseidon, the king of the sea, to save Karet, it was the heirloom magic harp in the man's hand that almost killed Karete.

"Bethany, you want me to be ...... like Oras"

After Demos looked at the underworld, a layer of cold sweat instantly formed on his forehead and back.

Betherphone responded with a heavy nod:

"In the god generation, the wife of the bard Eurace was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, and Euraz, who loved her dearly, was devastated. After committing suicide in order to reunite with his wife, his spirit entered Hades with a harp and moved the king with a melody. At that time, the king came up with the idea for Eulas, telling him to wait on the road to the Yellow Springs, and when he saw his wife's spirit, he did everything in his power to make her turn back. As long as his wife is willing to look back at him before falling into the eighteen layers of hell, the king will let them both return to the sun together. It's a pity ......"

At this point, Betherphone stopped sadly.

"Unfortunately, at the most critical moment, the harp ghost that Eulens was playing broke the strings like a god, and could not play a rhythm that would move his wife to turn around......"

Demos sighed, and then said the end of the second half of the sentence.

Kamidai, he has also heard of that touching love story, and he knows in his heart that it is clear that Hades played tricks and tricks against Oras for the so-called rules and order. This was also the direct trigger for the later bard to become a demon with hatred.

Demos hung his head, frowning.

He still remembers when he was at the ends of the earth more than six months ago. At that time, when facing Karet, who was split by the Yuan Spirit, he couldn't make up his mind to go to Hades.

Because he knew that even if he really went to ask Hades, he would only be tricked by that perverted and cold-blooded god in the end.

But now......

Demos clenched a fist and slammed his mouth around it, biting the skin on his fingers with his front teeth, feeling depressed and tangled.

In my mind, I can't get rid of every scene of the past with Karetta. He didn't want to give up on saving Karetta, and he didn't want to lose her for the rest of his life.

Seeing this, Betherphone didn't say anything more, just looked at him worriedly.

Eventually, Demos looked up, his black eyes staring at Bessephone decisively:

"Do you have a way to send my Yuan Ling to the underworld?"

"Are you really decided?" said Bethany, looking at her in surprise.

"Hmm!" Demos nodded vigorously, "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up!" Betsephone, find a way to send me down, I will definitely turn Carette back and bring her back safely!"

"Alright, God of Darkness, let's come to this pool......

Moved by Demos's determination, Bessephone became emotional, and she beckoned him to walk quickly to the edge of the white stone of the fountain.

"Listen, God of Darkness, now I'm going to use this pool of soul water illusion to lead your primordial spirit out of your body and into the underworld. Remember, try not to use spells in the enchantment of Hades, any small degree of divine power source will cause too much physical depletion, and your Yuan Spirit will not be able to bear it for a long time, and it is likely to lead to ashes in the end. Therefore, after finding Karete, be sure to hurry up and come back, and avoid entanglement with the dead soul as much as possible, don't forget it!"

"Thank you. But, Hades, how do you explain it?"

While Demos was grateful, he began to worry about the situation in the afterlife.

Betherphone smiled faintly:

"For now, don't worry about me, go and get Karette back. As for whether you can really succeed there, it all depends on your efforts......

With that, Betherphone quietly closed her eyes and waved her arms to cast a spell.

The water of the fountain suddenly stopped gushing, and almost at the same time, the pool of clear water turned a mixed green color, and the quiet water split into two vortices in the rotation, which turned faster and faster......

Demos followed Betsephone's instructions, his eyes staring straight at the tumbling pool of turbid green water. He was dizzy from the two swirling whirlpools. In the ear drum was a screeching sound, like the sound of boiling water, or some other strange sound.

Then, he felt a powerful suction force suddenly attach to her, forcibly dragging something out of his body, and his body became fluttering......

Besephone's last words rang in his ears, and her voice was muddy and distorted:

"Remember, find Kareta sooner, before she falls into the eighteenth layer of hell, find herβ€”"

......

In the empty other dimension, the Hades King said this, and his expression darkened.

"Later, it's the matter of him calling you back on the Yellow Spring Road, and you know it yourself, so you don't need me to state it again, isn't it, Kareta Messenger?"

Hades raised his eyes and met Carette's docking. At this time, he couldn't express the previous ridicule or disdain, and his silent expression seemed to reveal a slight sadness.

Karete's body didn't move, and her two teardrop-stained eyes didn't blink for a long time, as if they had been petrified again.

"Yes...... I know ......" It was a long time before she shook her lips twice and replied with a twitch:

"I know it all...... In order to call me back, he tried his best, and even spelled the source of divine power. In the end, he sent me back, but he ...... Fell into the deep hole of the eighteen layers of hell......"

"That's right!" the Immortal replied in confirmation.

"To be honest, I indulged Betherphone to help him, thinking that he couldn't do what Oras couldn't. I really didn't expect that he could give up everything for you. In the end, all my efforts have not stopped his determination to save you......"

"The fire brand...... What is the fire on Demos...... How did it come about?"

Karette asked bitterly, already feeling a sense of foreboding in her heart.

"That's ...... At that time, when Demos fell into the entrance of the eighteenth layer of hell......"

Hades' voice replied in the affirmative, and then stated......

β€”β€”

The nineteenth layer of Hades, the Infernal Hell-

Demos opened his eyes dejectedly, looking at the fiery red sky in front of him.

"Here...... Beautiful......"

For a long time, he whispered to himself and let out an exclamation. Slowly lowering his head, he looked curiously at the brilliant sea of red flowers under his feet.

"You know? When Carreta first came here, she said the same thing as you. ”

Behind Demos, Hades, the king of Hades, who was dressed in exquisite clothes, quietly appeared and said truthfully to Demos.

After waiting for half a minute, seeing that he didn't mean to deal with himself, Hades knew in his heart that Demos was still resentful of his actions on the Yellow Springs Road to prevent Kareta from turning back.

Hades didn't blame Demos, and said with a shallow smile:

"I've completely convinced you mad god! I've done anything evil for Karete's sake!"

"You know me, it's not a day or two!"

Demos threw out a sentence without looking back, still sulking.

"Huh...... Okay! Domineering exposed......"

Hades nodded helplessly, and then asked:

"Since you let Kareta go, you have fallen into the Infernal Hell where she made a covenant with me, presumably it is providence. You should know that Hades has never been able to return to the soul after death for no reason, and even if Oras tried, he eventually lost to me. ”

"Of course I know! No matter what life you go to, all the Hades cares about is face!"

Of course, Demos understood what Hades meant, so he coldly replied to him.

A fresh breeze blew in his face, bringing the inexhaustible scent of flowers into Demos's nostrils. He inhaled greedily as he thought of the torture that Carette had suffered in this beautiful but evil world.

Heart, tearing pain-

"Stop talking nonsense......"

Demos withdrew his distant gaze, sniffed, and continued, "I'm in a hurry! Hades, trade my life for Carette's, and then let me go back for the time being." As soon as the matter is over, I will return to your Hades!"

"You have to think about it! You may have made a big mistake! If the seal is broken, the catastrophe will be in sight. You sacrificed your life for just one woman...... This ......"

"It's wrong...... it's wrong," Demos laughed with relief:

"To use your Hades' words, I'm Karete's man, and I'm only doing what a man should do!"

Hades stood stunned in the sea of flowers on the other side, and there was nothing more to say. His eyes dimmed, and finally closed sadly.

"Well, I can't help it! I'll grant your wish, let Kareta go, and let you be burned at the stake. Let's start now, let's do the contract conversion......"

......

"It is precisely because of the transformation of the soul contract that the fire imprint on your body will appear on his body. Kareta, now the primordial spirit of Demos has returned to the nineteenth layer of the underworld, and he has suffered the calamity he deserves. ”

Hades stood in the space of another dimension, explained everything in the past in one breath, and finally looked at the boundless dark time and space of the dimension, and sighed desolately:

"Love and kill each other...... In this life, the door of fate is closed......"

"Huh...... Hehehe......"

Kareta burst out laughing:

"Demos ...... He's so stupid, he's so stupid! Why do you have to save me...... I was meant to be a damn woman...... Not worth saving...... It's not worth it at all...... Hahahaha......"

After laughing, her voice turned to a howling cry. In grief, she resolutely pulled down the sleeve on her left shoulder, despite the presence of many gods.

On the clotted white skin, the fire imprint like a flower on the other side has mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

Kareta looked at her blank left shoulder, sobbing. Suddenly, as if she had lost her mind, she opened her mouth and howled bitterly:

"Ahh
