Chapter Twenty-Three: Two Souls
"Hey?...... Carreta ......"
The call was included by Betsephone after a long time after the signal was connected, and in the phone, Betsephone's voice didn't sound cheerful, which really didn't match her personality!
Carette didn't care about anything else, and asked her directly:
"Bethany, have you conveyed my request to the Immortal that I want to see him, and when can I meet him?"
"That...... You...... Do you really want to meet the Immortal?"
"What's wrong with you? Is there anything wrong with you? Bethlephone, I told you last time that I was for Jose's business, and now it's time for it!"
"Immortal...... It's not that I don't want to see you...... Just ......"
"Just what?"
On the other end of the phone, the voice of the queen of the dead seemed to be slurred, which made Kareta even more worried. She hurriedly asked, lest she have too many dreams at night.
"Nothing, actually...... The Immortal King has long agreed with you...... It's just me...... It's because I don't want you to meet......"
"What?" said Carret, who exclaimed in disbelief, suspecting that something was wrong with her hearing system.
"What did you say, Betsephone? Why did you do this? Why didn't you let me see Hades? I've been waiting so long, and I don't know the truth if I don't chase you today! What the hell do you think? Don't you care about Jose's life and death at all......
"Don't worry, listen to me first!"
In the midst of Carrete's chattering questioning, Besephone suddenly interjected into her soft-as-first voice, completely ending her noise.
"Karet, I understand that your purpose in asking to see Hades is for Jose, but you should also know the rules of Hades, and that anyone or god who wants to ask Hades for help must pay a price. ”
"I know, no matter what the terms are, I will promise you Hades!"
Kareta squinted her eyes as she spoke into the microphone, her attitude and voice were particularly resolute.
“...... Well, if you do decide, I'll schedule a meeting between the two of you right away and let you know soon. ”
Bethesphanie's voice sounded difficult, but Carette insisted again and again, and she couldn't push it back.
"Thanks, give me the time and place as soon as possible. ”
Kareta hung up.
Having already contacted the gods of the underworld as she wished, and perhaps soon to get their help, Karete's mood was not only not a hint of comfort, but a lot heavier.
Putting down her phone, she stood up and walked a few steps around the bedroom, then turned her body and drew a full circle in place.
What would Hades offer in exchange for helping me......? Could it be that I also secretly covet the Athena Gem?, however, I have no choice but to do it for the sake of Jose, for the sake of the innocent people who are accused of the clutches of the Sea King, for the sake of ...... My love affair with Demos ......
Karete's expression tended to be solemn, and her two thin eyebrows were furrowed on a horizontal line. Her whole body stood upright, neither shaking nor shaking, and then she fell into quiet meditation—
Greece, Lavaux district, Mid-levels Villa –
"Jose" hung up the phone and raised the corner of his lips, silently blooming the most evil smile into the phone.
He, Jose, an ordinary Asian student, has taken on a new identity and mysterious powers since he was invaded by an extraordinary person a few months ago. Now, he is the god who rules the seas - Aquaman, Poseidon!
"Jose" stared intently at most of his face reflected in the blackened screen of his mobile phone, watching it reveal the drug rampant expression from the flat and mirror-like widescreen.
"Hehe, men are not bad, women are not loved! You, you, you should have met me a long time ago and accepted my changes to you. That way, your chick won't be snatched away by others......"
"Jose" whispered into the phone, and his face turned to a rather satisfied expression.
After finishing talking to himself, he raised his free hand against the image on the screen, smoothing out the protruding hair on the top of his head.
Looking at the phone again, "Jose" turned on the screen again, and his fingers swiped restlessly twice in the operation area, and then opened the system's electronic photo album.
Casually flipping through the selfies of the couples, "Jose" gradually felt a slight feeling in his heart.
Carreta ......
Unconsciously, my heart actually called out to the gentle blonde girl in the picture. Although the call was silent, he was taken aback by the eagerness that was tumbling like boiling water!
Then, strings of warm tears slipped out of his eyes.
Kareta –
There was another cry in his heart for no reason, and his tone was resolute and affirmative.
I'm ...... What's wrong –
The expression on "Jose's" face gradually changed from panic to fear, and his hands wiped a few handfuls on his cheeks, but the flow of tears could not be suppressed.
The pain in my chest was dull, and a feeling of depression rushed from the bottom of my heart to my heart, it was like a heartache, and it was like a kind of longing......
Why am I crying? I'm so sad inside, why...... Could it be......
At this time, he finally found the answer to his question in his panicked guessing:
In his body, the soul of the human man who had fallen into a state of eternal sleep since his body was taken away actually awakened at an unexpected moment. And what awakened him was the images he saw with his own eyes, that is, the pictures of Carret!
I really didn't expect that this Asian man would be so affectionate to her-
"Jose" thought to himself, the light of his eyes gathered more and more, and suddenly shouted angrily out of thin air:
"What's there to cry about? You're still in love with her? She's already kicked you to other men's beds, and you're crying for what she's doing!"
"Devil, get out of my body! You are not allowed to use me to harm Karet!"
As soon as the last shout fell, "Jose" immediately let out the next angry shout.
"You're doing less! I'm doing this for your own good. I have the strength and the means to help you get back the woman you like!
"Shut up devil! Don't lie to me!"
"Who is the Devil?Call Me 'God'! The greatest god!I am the Sea King, Poseidon the Sea King—"
"You're a demon! a demon! a demon!!"
......
"José" went crazy for a while, and he couldn't stop yelling and screaming, and he couldn't stop talking to himself. At other times, he was furious, and his face was hideous, and he tugged at his hair with his hand, and at other times, he cried and grabbed the ground with one hand, and clenched his other arm with one hand in mourning. One moment his limbs twisted like stiff twists, and the next he lay limply on the floor like a lump of soft mud.
"Bang la la" -
The corner cabinet by the wall was knocked over by his swaying body, and the furnishings on it shattered to the ground.
"Jumping dong dong" -
He tripped over the carpet as he went on a rampage, and there was a heavy thud as he fell down.
The whole time, he was fighting with himself, and it looked like he had fallen into some kind of trick.
Finally, his "madness" was like a thunderstorm, coming and going as fast as it came.
"Jose" panted and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, forcibly trembled violently up and down his body, supported his weak limbs and climbed a wall and slowly climbed up from the ground, leaning his back against the wall and standing.
Sharing a body with others is trouble-
He said in his heart.
Now, the soul of this body owner has been revived, not only controlling my behavior and emotions, but also daring to compete with my primordial spirit, in a vain attempt to get rid of my control and drive my primordial spirit out of his body!
Hmph, it's really beyond my own strength-
"Jose's" internal organs ignited with uncontrollable flames, and although his own body was burned by the thick fire, he still couldn't stop his angry revenge.
Gathering his mind, "Jose" resorted to extreme and extraordinary means.
For a moment, the aura burst out of his body, turning into a series of dazzling blue bands of light, throwing out an eerie evil aura that revolved rapidly around "Jose's" body.
At the same time, the watery areas of the villa were summoned by the power of the gods and poured out. With a "crackling" sound, the faucets in the kitchen, toilet and bathroom all burst, and the tap water sprayed magnificently all over the villa like fountains of different heights. Containers such as water dispensers, beverages, and alcohol suddenly shattered, and the liquid inside was scattered everywhere......
After some earth-shattering, there was no sound in the villa.
Looking at the messy state in the room, "Jose" sneered resentfully in the silence.
Just now he had suppressed the obstructive and dedicated soul with a spell, so from this moment on, he could monopolize the body that carried the primordial spirit of his Titan, and this human man called "Jose" could continue to be the supreme king of the sea—
"José" lifted his foot to bypass the fragments of the floor and walked slowly through the large living room of the villa. Looking at it, the pair of falcon-like eyes found their target not far away.
Lying next to the corner cabinet on the side wall lay a broken glass jar with a small fish in the murky cold water that was left.
There was not a single scale on its smooth fish, and the smooth and bare flesh had been soaked in dirty water for a long time, so that the whole body began to rot and turn white, and even the longitudinal texture of the skin and flesh on the surface could not be seen. If it weren't for the slight movement of its two gills, it would have been mistaken for a dead fish.
"Jose" bent down and reached out to fish the dying sick fish out of the water, choking on the smell of the fishy smell that spread all over his body, and wrinkled the thin skin on the bridge of his nose in disgust.
After half a minute, he was completely accustomed to the indecent smell, and gradually turned his head to stare fiercely at the poor little life in the palm of his hand, and the two pupils were sharp and cold.
The five fingers bent downward, and he clenched the small fish tighter, and then admired it with great satisfaction~ A pair of round fish eyes were raised, helplessly opening the fish's mouth, and Ai Ai was struggling in his hot palm with his broken body.
Triton, you never dreamed you would be where you are today, no matter how hard you try, the woman you love...... It's going to be in my pocket soon—
"Jose" narrowed his eyes, the smile on his face became more and more gloomy, and with a flick of his head, he threw the small fish in his hand to the hard floor.
Remembering Carrette again, "José" looked up and imagined her slender figure and the sultry look of shame and indignation on her delicate features as she lay beneath her in the ocean temple and hotel room.
"José" said silently in his heart:
It's because you're not focused enough on your feelings, and you can't stick to it all the time, so I can take advantage of it—
"Jose" knows that the only purpose of this rebirth with the help of human bodies is revenge, revenge on Demos and Karete who defeated him and destroyed the underwater temple -
At the time of the original ocean war, as the king of the sea, he was the shock power generated after losing to Demos and Carrete's "light and dark integration", so this time he must not directly confront the enemy with spells, it is better to find another way and change to an alternative means of revenge.
The god of darkness, the messenger of love and light, the two sources of divine power of the Titans can be powerful and invulnerable when combined, but their love lives may not be perfect. That human man is the fatal flaw that exists in their love. And I, if I want to succeed in revenge, I have to take advantage of that flaw......
After calculating for a long time, "Jose" made up his mind, and his handsome face became extremely gloomy, and his expression was filled with an invasive chill.
