Chapter 1157 Everyone Wants To Be The Hot Stuff
40th Layer of the Abyss…
"What do you think, Sleipnir?" James asked his horse with a serious expression on his face. "Do you want me to disguise you to look like a Nightmare Horse?"
Sleipnir shook its head. It then neighed a few times as if telling James that it didn't need such a disguise, and for the Old Man to worry more about himself.
As an eight-legged horse, it didn't stand out too much in the Abyss, since most of the Monsters there were unique.
James, on the other hand, stood out like a sore thumb. 𝐟𝗿𝗲𝗲𝐰𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
The old man was wearing a white robe, and a white wizard hat. Also, he was human. It was simply too hard for James to pretend to be an Abyssal Monster with his get up.
Lux, on the other hand, was playing it safe, and had transformed into an Incubus.
This was a form that Queen Rhiannon had gifted him in the past, but he never bothered to use it. Now that he was planning to play it safe in the Abyss, he decided to finally use it, in case he and Daniel met, and there was a possibility that the latter wouldn't recognize him.
"You're right," James nodded. "I truly don't look like an Abyssal Creature."
The Old Man coughed awkwardly before taking off the Wizard Hat from his head. He also removed his white robe, and changed it to something darker and duller.
He then put on a demonic mask, covering half of his face, making him look more sinister. To complete his disguise, he pulled up the hood of the robe he was wearing, covering his head and forehead. "Better?" James asked Sleipnir, who nodded its head in approval.
The old man smiled and patted the neck of his horse before glancing at the Half-Elf behind him.
"I think we've already had enough rest," James stated. "Let's go cross to the Hundredth Layer as soon as possible."
Lux nodded and mounted Sleipnir's back, ready to continue their journey.
Once its two passengers were properly seated, Sleipnir ran towards the Portal of the 40th Floor, so that they would arrive at the 41st Floor.
But, just as the two were approaching the portal, something unexpected happened.
A two-meter tall Black Wolf with the wings of a Griffin, and the tail of a snake, appeared in front of them.
A few seconds later, countless Abyssal Monsters poured out from the portal, blocking their path.
"Hmm?'' The Black Wolf glanced at the two demons who were riding on the back of an eight-legged horse. "The two of you, which Abyssal Lord do you serve?" Marchosias asked.
"We serve Lord Andras of the Twelfth Layer," Lux replied.
This was the plan that he had hatched after taking the form of an incubus.
"Andras?" Marchosias frowned. "Isn't he already dead? Also, as an Incubus, shouldn't you be serving the Abyssal Lord of the 69th Layer of the Abyss, Jack Gorgon?"
"Do you mean Jack_Gordon?" Lux asked.
"No, I meant Jack Gorgon," Marchosias insisted. "Why aren't you serving him?"
Lux lowered his head. "It's because I didn't like him. Because of that, I left the 69th Layer and went down to the 12th Layer. Unfortunately, My Master died while fighting against that B*tch, Queen Rhiannon. I hid when they invaded the 12th Layer, and only left when things settled down.
"Also, I heard some rumors that the ruler of the 69th Floor, Jack Gorgon, joined the Abyssal Invasion. However, the connection with the Abyss has been severed, so he is no longer able to return. "I plan to go back home with the intention of starting over. I just hope that the bastard died in Elysium, so that I will never have to see his face again."
The look of disgust appeared on the Incubus' face, making the Black Wolf smirk.
"It seems that you really hated that guy," Marchosias commented. freew ebnove l.com
"I don't hate him," Lux replied. "I despise him."
"Hahaha! Spoken like a true Abyssal," Marchosias nodded his head in satisfaction. "By the way, you said that you came from the 12th Layer. How did you manage to pass through the 13th Layer?"
"I took the opportunity to sneak out when everyone was preparing for war," Lux answered. "Fortunately, I had already arrived on the 15th Layer when the connection between the Layers was severed."
"Then, have you seen anything suspicious as you've been traveling towards the deeper Layers?"
"No. I've only seen some stragglers along the way, and some infighting in the cities due to the sudden power vacuum that has transpired since the big shots passed through the gates. It seems that everyone wants to be the 'Hot Stuff' as of late."
The Black Wolf snorted because this was a fact. After the majority of the Abyssal Lords had entered the portal, those who were left behind thought that it was time to take over the position of their previous Masters.
Infighting was very common, and only those who directly served Daniel were exempt from doing something so foolish.
By now, the Abyssal Legion of Marchosias had already passed through the portal, and was only waiting for their leader's orders.
"The two of you should settle down soon," Marchosias said as it moved to the side to allow Lux and his companion to pass. "Things are getting rowdy here in the Abyss. It is not a good time to travel between the different Layers."
"Thank you for your advice, Your Excellency," Lux bowed respectfully. "May fortune smile upon you."
After Lux finished saying his parting words, James urged Sleipnir to walk towards the portal.
Just as the horse was about to step inside it, the Black Wolf called out to them, making their bodies stiffen.
"Oh, yeah, before I forget, there is something that I must tell you," Marchosias said with a mischievous smirk on its face.
"Yes, Your Excellency?" Lux asked as his hand slowly moved, ready to summon Calypso and his Undead Army to fight at a moment's notice.
"The Abyssal Lord who now rules the 69th Floor is Jack Gorgon's brother," Marchosias stated. "Although he is different from his brother, he is just as viscous as him."
Lux bowed for a second time. "I'll keep that in mind, Your Excellency."
Sleipnir finally passed through the portal, disappearing from everyone's sights.
Marchoasias then ordered his Abyssal Legion to continue to march towards the 14th Layer of the Abyss.
The mischievous smile was still plastered on its face as it thought of the two people he met just now.
'Even if they tried to hide it, they are unable to fool my nose,' Marchosias mused. 'It seems that they are the ones who eliminated the guards stationed at the entrance of the 14th Layer.'
The Black Wolf continued to walk and lead his subordinates forward.
Although he had discovered that the two were Humans, he didn't make any attempt to report his discovery to Daniel.
Marchosias hated his current Employer, and was only paying lip service to his order. Since the two might have the ability to give his Boss' some trouble, Marchoasias was more than happy to look the other way and let them kill each other.
That way, he would finally be free of his servitude, and be able to return to ruling his own Domain, without someone trying a leash on his neck and treating him like a lapdog, which Marchosias hated the most.
