The journey of Sword of Sufferings towards the middle circle began.
Chelsea, Rhodez, and a few people from the Golden Maple Group were amazed to see how the members of the Sword of Sufferings made ranks and moved forward in an orderly manner. It looks very professional, not at all like a layman who trains his team in origin.
To them, the order and professionalism of the Sword of Sufferings could rival that of the Imperial Phoenix. In fact, it looks better than them!
“This feeling ..”
Rhodez was very nervous. Even though he was walking, he felt he was being watched. Not only him, but the entire group seemed to be watched.
“You need not fear. They are Huginn and Muninn. After a while, you will get used to this kind of feeling. So I suggest, you guys don't try anything funny and instead interrupt the line.”
As a liaison to Sword of Sufferings and Golden Maple Group, Jay briefly explained. There was absolutely no more explanation, but it still gave them a warning.
“What kind of name is that? Sound weird? Are they twins? Have special abilities of some kind of long distance vision like Gray Eagle from Imperial Phoenix?”
Rhodez continued to mutter. It seemed that the man was feeling even more shocked to see such incredible members of the Sword of Sufferings. He secretly recorded in his heart that he would not try to contradict this group of monsters.
Fortunately, from Ark's attitude, Rhodez realized that the Sword of Sufferings was a neutral party that did not side with anyone.
Meanwhile, a smarter and more insightful Chelsea walk by daydreaming. Finished recalling the two names, the girl looked surprised. That's because ...
He was sure that those two names were not human names at all!
The sound of birds is heard so loud. Right then, they all saw two white coloured giant birds swooping through the gray mist.
At the moment the members of the Golden Maple Group were frightened, the soldiers from the Sword of Sufferings looked calm, not even reacting.
Just then, a shocking sight appeared before their eyes.
The two white-colored giant crows perched not far from the Ark and made some chirps. The young man approached them and gently stroked the two crow heads. Looking up at the soldiers, he said.
“In front there is an area with dense vegetation. There are quite a number of poisonous animals. Although we can fight against those creatures, but such a thing is not at all necessary.
The area is not so wide, so we will take a detour.”
“Ya, Chairman!” answer them in unison.
Hearing that answer, Ark nodded lightly. Just then, he looked back at Huginn and Muninn.
“Thank you for your hard work. As always, do not fly too far and try not to look flashy.”
Huginn and Muninn made a chirp. They approached Ark then rubbed their heads against the young man's body before retreating and flying. Go on patrol while paving the way for the Sword of Sufferings.
Seeing such a magical sight where humans and mutated beasts could live together stunned the people of the Golden Maple Group.
It was simply unexpected to see such a scene in this messy world.
“Truly amazing,” murmured Chelsea with an amazed expression.
At first, the girl knew that Huginn and Muninn were not human names. But he did not expect that the two were really crows just like in the mythology he had read.
“Most mutated creatures are vicious and cruel, but there are definitely exceptions. Huginn and Muninn one of them.”
Jay said with a relaxed expression on his face. Having already seen the miracle after miracle created by Ark, he almost felt invulnerable.
“Does the Ark Lord not only be able to fight, make weapons, and medicine, Young Master? He can also tame mutated beasts?” asked Rhodez who had just realized from her daydream.
“I told you, Huginn and Muninn are special. The reason why both of them would accept Ark was because they had been helped. Not only that, the two birds were extremely intelligent and sensitive. They seem to be able to feel Ark's sincerity, so choose to follow him.”
Seeing Jay not so good at explaining then toward his curious colleagues, Chelsea began to explain.
“Even before the mutation, the crow is an intelligent creature. Only, they seem to hate the white crow and kill it even if it's their own partner or family, which is why we rarely see the white crow.
Most likely, Master Ark saved two dying crows. Incidentally, the two crows underwent a mutation and became more intelligent.
Just like the princess that the prince saved, to the two mutated crows, Ark's figure was more like the prince they coveted. Come help right when they need.”
“So, do we have to pretend to be good in front of some innocent mutated creatures to deceive them?” muttered one of the members of Golden Maple Group.
“But not necessarily true. Beasts are more sensitive than humans, especially after evolution. So, they can all look at the heart and sort out who is sincere.”
Chelsea shook their heads. Clearly, he did not believe that mutated creatures could be easily deceived. Not to mention, there are some examples where many people die because they believe that humans and mutated animals can live in harmony in this world
They were clearly destroyed.
“Actually, there are some special creatures that can be tamed. Besides Huginn and Muninn, there were a few in the main headquarters. Arguably, they had a fateful encounter with Ark. That guy was amazing.”
“Eh?”
Hearing that, some people became even more shocked. Feeling that Ark is really quite abnormal.
“Does Mr Ark have another pet? What's name?” asked Chelsea in curiosity.
“Finn.” Jay said relax. “Giant white wolf, one of Ark's best colleagues. Finn doesn't mean finished, according to what I heard, Ark took that name from two words. Fine which means fine and Fenrir which means the name of a particular wolf monster in mythology.”
“...”
Seeing everyone dumbfounded, Jay lifted the corner of his mouth. The man then said again.
“Because it has many amazing abilities, it has several nicknames. However, can you guess his most popular nickname?”
“Is that the King of the Gods, Odin?” ask Chelsea.
“Not.”
“Is that a Power Tipu God, Loki?”
“Not.”
Chelsea was confused, did not expect at all his guess turned out wrong. Huginn and Muninn are clearly Odin's pet, Fenrir is obviously the son of Loki. If thought carefully, his nickname should be the name of one of the gods.
Seeing the confused people, Jay finally answered the question himself.
“People call him King of the Underworld, Hades.”
Hearing nicknames that had absolutely nothing to do with Fenir, Huginn, and Muninn made Chelsea even more confused.
“You will find out why he was called Hades on this trip.”
Jay did not explain excessively. According to him, excessive explanations are not necessary because they will see it directly and understand.
Justright. No need to wait a few days, in just a few hours, they understood why such a calm man was called Hades.
Standing at the front line, the white hair danced in the gusts of wind. Facing a siege of hundreds of zombies, he ordered his troops to finish off the creatures. From its majesty, the word ‘Raja’ does match its appearance.
Seeing the handsome young man with ruby-red eyes walking past the bodies of hundreds of zombies without even changing his expression, they felt strange. For some reason, such a sight did not make Ark in any way fear or disgust.
Instead, Ark looked like he was taking a walk in his own backyard. Surprisingly, it looked perfectly suited to a chaotic, broken, and filled world filled with these monsters.
King of chaotic and terrible places ...
King of the underworld ...
The name ‘Hades’ does match that young man.
Looking at that loner, melancholic-looking figure, Chelsea's eyes shone brightly, seemingly filled with stars. For some reason, he felt something that had never been felt before.
‘Hades ... Hades ... That name really suits you, Mr. Ark.’
