I Didn't Choose the Gangsta System, the Gangsta System Chose Me

Chapter 78 - [Bonus ] Sneaking Into Rooms

"We're done for! I'm ready to die!" Kidrith cried aloud while Joren carried her since Hades' slightest touch damaged her arm.

"No, we're not!" Joren ran as fast as he could down the hallways, "Tell me which way to go!"

"What's the point!? Saying what I want to say is already too much freedom for me! I can now rest in peace!" Kidrith replied while pointing the which corner to choose from.

"Well, if you want to die, try to get down from my back; I wouldn't resist!"

"... no!"

"Then stop shouting. We're going to escape!"

Joren said as Hades began chasing after them. Darkness appeared before them, and Hades came out with his horns throbbing in front of them.

"Both of you are going to die here and then!"

"AHHH!!" Kidrith shrieked as Joren jumped and took all Hades' energy attack before giving him a dropkick.

"Argh!"

Hades dropped onto the floor again. The very air began to pulsate along with the swirling emotions that Hades felt within him. No matter how many times it happens, he would freeze in shock. How can that lesser undead hit him!?

At that moment, Hades remembered what Osmin had said to him before. It's about Joren being Fated…

Fated beings are prophesized to reach greatness and stand above others in the future, a God!

'But it still doesn't make any sense! In the future, he may stand on the same plane as me, but for now, he's nothing but a lesser undead!'

…

"The Lord- I mean, Hades can instantaneously appear everywhere in this realm. That God is the realm itself, he is practically everywhere if he wishes to!" Kidrith explained.

"Then why doesn't he show up again so I can kick his ass this time?"

"Please don't joke around! Say cool things; we're about to die! Uwaa!!"

Kidrith no longer restrained herself and just cried like a baby.

"Then don't act like a child then!" Joren ran down the cylindrical stairs after Kidrith quickly led him through the shortest route towards it. Once at the cylindrical stairs, Joren can directly go to the ground floor no matter what floor he came from.

"And also, Hades might not have it right now, but he owns the helmet of invisibility!" Kidrith said after remembering.

"Helmet of invisibility!? That's cheating!"

"I know, right!?"

"Also, I want to ask, where is the room of the Furies!?" Joren suddenly asked.

"Eh?! What for!?"

"I have to get my soul first!"

"Ugh!" Kidrith expressed hopelessness, "Fine, since we're going to die anyway, it's good to die after you regain your soul! It's actually above the floor where we came from."

Joren tried to stop, and it already took him some effort to slow down from his fall first.

"This is going to be hard. Good thing that I'm still full of energy!"

He has to thank Allecto's the drop of blood for it.

"And, aren't you supposed to be a Fury too?! Can't you carry me?!"

"How can I carry you? Hades took my strength the moment he touched my arm!" Kidrith paused for a while before asking, "Also, how are you able to touch Hades? You shouldn't be able to touch him since he's the realm itself."

"I don't know it myself too!"

Joren answered, but the only reason he could think of was, once again, Allecto's blood.

Meanwhile, Hades entered the room and saw Persephone was still asleep. He especially didn't want to wake Persephone up so, with his control, no aura of his could enter their room. Quietly, he tiptoed towards his helm of invisibility.

'Once they are outside, I can't let anyone see that some lesser undead can hit me. I wouldn't be able to catch them.'

Hades is not physically strong because his physical body is just an entity manifestation of the realm itself. Therefore, he shouldn't get hurt by physical attacks, making him a tricky opponent even among the Gods.

"Hmm~"

Hades froze when he heard a sound from Persephone. He glanced and saw that she wasn't awake.

'This is scaring me… I still don't know how she'll react if she learns that I made a move on Kidrith. But isn't it unfair for me to only have one woman!? At least, make it three, so I would alternately make love to them every night and not get bored with it!'

Reaching his vault, Hades stood in front of it for facial recognition.

[Error: Face not recognized.]

"...!!!"

Hades placed his hand on the vault as if the object had a mouth that he could cover.

[Error: Face not recognized.]

"Shh….!"

His face was cringing, not knowing how to stop this automated voice.

'The future on the surface sucks!'

[Do you want to switch to another entry method? If yes, shout YES; if no, whisper no~.]

"... y-yes…!"

[That's not a shout. What are you taking me for? I'm an AI.]

"Well, you're not very intelligent then…! While I'm here, wasting my time, that abominable undead is making his escape…!"

[Why?]

"!?"

Hades trembled in anger.

Meanwhile, within the cylindrical stairs, Joren finally reached the floor to where the room of the Furies is.

"I wonder where Hades is!?" Joren asked.

Kidrith then replied, "I don't know! But just follow this hallway, and you'll eventually reach their room!"

"Okay!"

On the other hand, Megaera and Allecto just reached Kidrith's room.

"They're gone already. But what happened, that's definitely the Lord's power…." Megaera muttered and looked down the hallway with traces of ghoulish energy.

"Don't change the topic. You still haven't told me why you're visiting Joren late at night."

Allecto intercepted, which Megaera found unreasonable. Before she could answer, someone arrived there right after them.

"Iek…!" Nebarius lightly shrieked when he saw that the two people were Megaera and Allecto!

The three-headed crow landed on his knees as they slid on the floor. Once he stopped, he prostrated in front of Megaera and Allecto.

Clap clap clap*

Megaera and Allecto gave him a round of applause before the former replied to the latter.

"I was just there to give him a chance to explain himself. Why are you so persistent!?"

"Stop lying, you went to his room before that too, and that's why you caught them, right!? The timeline of your logic doesn't match!" Allecto argued while catching up to Megaera, who was following the traces of the shadow on the floor.

'They… painfully ignored me….' Nebarius didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky, but before long, he flew up and caught up to them, "Wait up, ladies!" he still wanted to ask what was happening with their Lord as he was trying to search for him too…

[Error: Face looks stupid.]

"Grr…!!" nerves were popping out of Hades' face. He even forgot about Joren for a moment there. His frown became worse and worse until…

Ding*

[Face recognized.]

"...?"

The vault then opened, to which Hades then took the helmet of invisibility and immediately wore it.

"Hades?" Persephone then sat up with a tired face but saw no one, "Hm? I thought he was there for a moment… guess he's still sitting on his throne… yawn~... overseeing… the land…"

'So precious!' Hades' stress lessened before he makes his mistake when-

"Wait, why is the vault open!?" Persephone sat up and was fully awake.

'I forgot!'

[Hadeslessthan3lessthan3 have opened the vault. Due to inactivity, the vault is now closing.]

"Oh, it's just Hades. I thought someone else opened it." Persephone sighed in relief before she went back to sleep.

'AI! I'm sorry for getting angry at you. You're a good bot!' Hades then safely exited the room before he extended his senses to find Joren and Kidrith.

'Why are they there!?' he found a problem...

Joren and Kidrith entered the Furies' room and saw Tisiphone busy on her phone. Hades assumed that all the Furies were in their room, so he excluded that place as well, just like what he did for his and Persephone's room.

"... will she not notice us?" Joren whispered as he crawled on the ground in the dark. Tisiphone was in a strange position with her legs up leaning on the wall, making an 'L' position as she faced the wall if not the phone between them.

"Lady Tisiphone has the sharpest senses among the Furies so we better be careful." Kidrith replied.

"That's my soul…" Joren looked up at the birdcage hanging from the ceiling. He felt like crying as this was a very sentimental reunion.

"But why is it naked??" Kidrith frowned as her face flustered.

"Hm?" Tisiphone tilted her 'up' and span her eyes around the room.

'We will be seen! We will be seen!' Kidrith's heartbeat increased and Joren have to hold her mouth for her to muffle her quick breathing.

"Weird, I'm sure I heard a sound…" Tisiphone then went back to her phone, making both Kidrith and Joren relieved.

Bam*

"Tisiphone, let me touch your wing-!" Megaera suddenly entered the room, letting the light from the hallway illuminate the room.

"Ah…" Joren and Kidrith then made eye contact with the sisters.
