Chapter 1986 Investigate Tartarus II

Adrian was followed closely by the God of Rebirth Zagreus and Megaera. The two gods thought that Tartarus was not that bad as it just looks like the torture room version of realm of Hades. Unlike Hades, Tartarus is made of the flesh of the dead and each step would make the ground scream in pain. If one is not use to the sight, then they would inevitably faint.

"I thought Tartarus would be scarier than this. It is just a place made up of the flesh of dead people." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated.

"We are only at the entrance area and not the depths. The ones near the entrance are just beings that are not bound like the fallen titans. Tartarus was never meant to imprison normal souls as it was a prison made to lock up gods. Also, my presence is basically like a bug repellent in this death realm. If I am not here, then both of you might have been attacked by the monsters that spawned from the pain of the dead." Adrian stated.

Adrian and the two gods reached the volcano that he pointed towards. When they reached the volcano, it was not actually made of rocks or magma but of darkened bones. The lava that was flowing is none other than blood. The scream and wail of the tortured dead could be heard restlessly which made even Megaera think that her punishment chamber is heaven compared to this place.

"Someone is here!" The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated as a face suddenly appeared behind the three of them.

"Hello, Cottus. I hope that you are doing well." Adrian stated as the floating head was an apparition of one of the Hecatoncheires that serves as the warden in Tartarus.

"The flying head is the Mighty Cottus?" The God of Rebirth Zagreus asked as he knows what the Hecatoncheires are.

The three beings said to have been born from the Goddess of Life Gaea as they were called the First Protectors of the first Tree of Life. Three beings born so tall that the sky itself become small in their presence. They are beings with fifty faces and a hundred arms strong enough to destroy planets. That being is now a giant head floating near them which is not something that the two gods expected.

"Do not be rude. Cottus is just showing us one of his heads as most of him are making sure that the prisoners do not escape. His real body is large enough to actually cover the castle in Hades." Adrian stated as he knows that Cottus is very sensitive of his image.

"Greetings, Champion Equinox. Rather, should I say Mediator of the Dead. Why have you come to Tartarus? I believe that there should be no meeting right now. Has the champion been told to look after us?" Cottus' head apparition stated.

"I wanted to check in with you guys but that is not real reason why I came down with them." Adrian stated.

"Child of Hades and a Goddess of Vengeance. If you have brought them then something must have happened in the realm above." Cottus stated.

"Something did happen, and it also happens to be related to Tartarus as well. A living being was able to sneak inside Hades and enter Tartarus using the pit. Have you noticed something amiss for the past few weeks?" Adrian asked.

"I did feel the presence of a living being, but it was so faint that they were very close to death. I thought it was just a foolish mortal that has found a portal to Hades and dropped to Tartarus. That living being died here or rather was swallowed by this blood volcano." Cottus stated.

"Forgive me for my language, Great Cottus… but why did none of you report this to my master?" Megaera asked.

"I sent the report on that very day, but I did not receive anything from you which is why I did not press further." Cottus stated which shocked the God of Rebirth Zagreus and Megaera.

"Did you two remember something?" Adrian asked.

"I did. I remember that the God Odin was throwing a fit that he was expelled out of the castle by my father. He was directly sent out near the pit to Tartarus. The God Odin only calmed down when he felt the power of Tartarus as even, he does not want to mess with my father that has the ability to vanish gods to this place." The God of Rebirth Zagreus stated.

"This cannot be coincidences as there are no such things when it comes to gods. Cottus, did the mortal being have a blessed soul?" Adrian asked if the mortal being was a player.

"I remember that it did have a soul just like you said but even blessed souls have a chance of permanently dying in Tartarus. Still, the soul of that blessed being is not here which meant that they have been reborn already." Cottus stated which made Adrian become silent as he now has a creeping suspicion that the player that entered here has already got what they wanted.

"Where does the other end of the Blood Volcano lead?" Adrian asked.

"If that mortal lived then they might have dropped directly on top of the second layer where some of the punished Titans are located. If there was a disruption, then my other brothers would have reacted, but we did not find anything alarming." Cottus stated.

"If that is the case then we should be glad. If that mortal came to free the titans, then they would have already escaped from here." The God of Death Zagreus stated.

"I think they did not come here to free the titans but take something out. The best escape plan is none other than a death of blessed being since they will revive with special items in their subspace. I just hope that this is not something that I have overly thought about." Adrian stated as his face became perplexed.
