Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Hades Hall.

In the depths of this underworld, the sound of intense clashing and the ragged breaths of a man and a woman echoed faintly.

But under the black gauzy curtains, clothes were in disarray, flying about, on an exquisite bed.

Two figures embraced passionately, releasing the vigorous energy and reproductive desires of the divine spirits.

"Aphrodite, you are truly beautiful!"

Hades did not expect Aphrodite would come to him willingly, saying she wanted to experience the difference between the spirits of the Netherworld and those of the Mortal World.

Aphrodite only had an expression of enjoyment and allure, from leaving the Divine Hall until now she had been pent up, only relieving a little in Ephesus while gathering information on Shen Fei.

But to get to the bottom of Shen Fei’s background, she rushed straight to Aia Island, only to find that Shen Fei was the only male there.

Yet, strangely, Shen Fei seemed to have some connection with Chronos, and since she was a spirit born from a piece of Chronos’ flesh, she couldn’t greatly influence him.

Moreover, there was a connection with that mysterious goddess, Hecate.

This left Aphrodite unable to make a move, a goddess constantly controlled by desire, and a god of men who had been repressed in the Netherworld for a thousand years.

This collision was like heavenly thunder igniting earth fire.

Their movements became more frantic, and just as the King of the Underworld was about to ascend to ecstasy, the obsidian dome suddenly shattered, with twelve faint black chains shooting out like venomous snakes.

Immersed in the bliss of passion, Hades suddenly opened his eyes.

The Netherworld King’s Scepter had yet to be raised when Aphrodite’s ivory arm suddenly embraced him, whispering softly, "King of the Underworld, I’m not satisfied yet."

"You—!"

Hades looked at the face in front of him, as dazzling as peach blossoms, his eyes nearly bursting, was this goddess seeking death?

And what gave her the courage, did she not know that Zeus valued this Netherworld greatly, let alone Aphrodite?

Even if it were Ares, his own son, dared to do such, he would still be sent into eternal slumber since the time of that Titan rebellion.

After Zeus was injured, he became increasingly wary of the Netherworld, even making occasional patrols to check on Chronos, his old father.

"How dare you all..." Hades’ roar turned to ice shards in his throat. The Saintess and Chi You emerged from the shadows, and upon seeing Chi You.

Nightmarish memories flooded his mind, and the King of the Underworld’s face turned pale.

God King Chronos, he has returned!

"Boom!"

As Hades’ heart plummeted into the abyss, a shiver ran through his entire body.

Aphrodite immediately showed a look of satisfaction, "But still much weaker than Ares."

A divine robe reappeared on Aphrodite’s body, and upon seeing Chronos, a trace of apprehension flickered in her beautiful eyes, and then seeing two standing behind Shen Fei simultaneously.

Almost as if Shen Fei were the main leader.

Causing Aphrodite’s face to grow even more puzzled, what was the relationship between Shen Fei and Chronos after all?

Shen Fei didn’t seem like the offspring of Chronos; it was more like Chronos was Shen Fei’s offspring.

"Artemis’ priest, Muses, Medical God... Chronos, Hecate?" The more power Hades felt from them, the more terrified he became, and upon seeing Chronos, his fear reached its peak.

And upon seeing Hecate, his voice raised several pitches.

Hades was stunned, realizing that something big seemed about to happen.

Artemis, Apollo, and the ancient deities once more gathered, alongside those currently existing.

One of whom was the former Divine King, where any change of kingship meant one king should not see another.

The heavens cannot have two suns.

Now the former God King appears again, seemingly unbound, does it even need saying what will happen?

"You..."

Before Hades could speak, chains instantly burst from the Saintess, constricting the entire Hades Hall like pythons.

Simultaneously Chi You gazed down upon Hades, the pressure of the King of Titans looming in the surroundings, heavily suppressing the King of the Underworld.

"My avatar is attending the Gods’ Assembly, with just a word, I can let the gods know the current state of the Netherworld, by then the Twelve Main Gods will descend."

"You all shall die!"

Hades felt his power completely suppressed, Chronos was his father, and even though he had abdicated, he couldn’t suppress him in divine authority.

But in rank, he could suppress him, and this suppression was enough to make him lose some of his power, also coupled with the extremely mysterious possibly not weaker than the Main God, Hecate.

Hades dared not act rashly, could only threaten.

Saintess: "You can try, do you think before they arrive, you can deal with us?"

"Either let your avatar continue attending the Gods’ Assembly and shut up, or..."

"I’ll let the Nether River devour your Divine Status, see if Zeus can retrieve your fragments from Chaos."

The Saintess continued, "Besides, do you think Zeus would risk everything to save you? The prophesied three great wars have passed, his authority is now unprecedentedly strong."

"Do you think he still plans to keep you, who once joined him in overthrowing the throne, around..."

The Saintess’s words plunged Hades into silence, if it were long ago, this could be considered defamation.

But now it was simply the truth.

Be it him or Poseidon, their forces were continuously being pruned by Zeus, like Poseidon could be overlooked, he always harbored intentions of becoming Divine King.

A deserved fate.

But he didn’t, let alone the fact he was willing to stay in the Netherworld back then, which was much duller than the Mortal World, at that time, when Poseidon and Zeus were overthrowing the father king.

He contributed a small part, just playing a minor role.

Netherworld then, so what, after all, it was a world governing the dead, he didn’t want to involve himself in the multiplicity of divine affairs in the Mortal World.

After all, as long as he was the King of the Underworld, he had faith in the Mortal World.

Now, gods continuously interfere with mortality, reviving the dead more and more frequently, and those who die ascend to the heavens becoming constellations.

This was outright trampling his divine authority!

He guarded the Netherworld for so many years, if not for credit then for hard work, yet Zeus insisted on appointing a Queen of the Underworld to constrain him, unlike Poseidon’s Sea Queen who was his own choice.

At least she was chosen by himself.

His Queen of the Underworld was a direct appointment from Zeus, equivalent to his younger brother interfering in his elder brother’s marriage.

Also, among the Twelve Main Gods, his name as the King of the Underworld wasn’t there.

This meant his name was not even in the Main God Temple worshipped in the Mortal World.

After hearing the Saintess, Hades’s dissatisfaction with Zeus had completely erupted, opening his mouth, "I won’t tell the gods, but helping you, what benefits do I get?"

"Let you rule the seas." Said Chi You, and it was indeed an immense temptation.
