《Lethal Virtue》Chapter 10:Hades
Advertisement
The bright sunshine rises through the clouds and rain starts to pour through the windows of the Cytro building which contained all of the people who worked for the people. "Ugh boss this job was way easier when I were a smaller organization and just had one building" said Clemmons as he moved and signed some of the contract papers they were getting through the need of smaller businesses in the city by the bankruptcy that the majority of the businesses were having, "relax old man at least you get paid more than in any other job you had before" said Acantha as she was looming on a board and putting some papers of contracts. "Well they at least paid me more when I was in the militia and doing it for my benefit" He said as he mad a small grunt with his face, "puff, you never were on the militia you just were a baker" said Acantha "Well at least I was having fun" Clemmons said as he fixed his glasses and signed one paper in the Information department.
In the highest floor of the building there was in the front right the first person when you got through the elevators of course it's always the big Atlas standing near some of the walls protecting just the entrance of the office and room where Zeus is, but at the same time as he is there is Scarlet, the secretary that is always being there with her Red hair, heels and well dressed customs which any secretary of high standards would wear.
A call on the reception phone he uses sounds and calls, vibrantly for the need to be heard by him, he answers "Yes?" Zeus said when he answered the phone, "Is Asclepius sir he says he wants to come in to your office" said Scarlet,"Fine let him through" he agreed and Asclepius entered the room with his umbrella that was wet from the rain that was outside the building, "Hi sir it is raining hard isn't?" Asclepius said with a grin on his face, "Yeah well rain is just a common weather of the everyday", then he looked from bottom to top to Asclepius "so why do you have two bullet wounds on your body?" Zeus said, "As perceptive as always big boss" He said, "Well you know, having Z-treon in the body give me advantages such as making my senses stronger" Zeus said, "Yeah and you are the only one who got it so that's pretty obvious, emm.. anyways I just came here to also talk about others things, I know how two of the man getting in our way look, we just have to find them by my description" Asclepius said, "Well so now you are basically telling me that on the mission of interrogating those two girls you just failed in doing so? You are losing your shine Asclepius" Zeus said intrigue "But it's fine, they will just probably fail in one thing or another, then we will get them out of their home like a mouse to a trap" he said, "Yeah and I am sure my department of science will come up with some ideas to make the perfect trap to those rats" Asclepius said, "Yes that will happen, but for now what you can do is grab that Treon and needle, I am losing my damn abilities very slowly" He grunts as if he had pain but it's a soft grunt, "Sure thing, I am probably the best that can do this as the one in charge of the science department" Then he proceeded to pick the liquid and needle that was in the fridge in one of the boxes Zeus had in there, he starts injecting it to him and the Treon starts slowly getting through his arm "Sir I might find the reason as to why you are losing the amount of Treon that you are if you sir could just give me a dose of your blood" Asclepius said, "No need the reason I am losing it is probably my age, this has kept me alive for more than 100 years so it probably would start to deteriorate on my body" Zeus said without looking at Asclepius and looking through the window as if he was hiding something.

Asclepius of course did not believed him so he would wanted to ask again but being careful with his words because one of the most notorious things about Zeus was his temperament, more than fifty people has died because of just bothering his ideals or just bothering him, "But sir if I get them I am pretty sure I'll...", the time stopped for Asclepius as when he said those words he had a pen out of nowhere that not even his eyes could catch how quick it went so close near his eye, It was Zeus that in a tremendous speed grabbed a pen from his deck and in such as speed put it near Asclepius eye which made Asclepius get goosebumps and get the feel of freezing through out his body, "Do not insist or you will know what will happen" Said Zeus, "Of..course sir.. I will definitely do not ask again nor bother you about it my immense apologies" He said and Zeus with a straight ways and Eagle eyes moves away the pen from getting closer to Asclepius eye which he was very close to losing it.
Then after a quiet injection of Treon Asclepius finished and Zeus dismissed him out of the room, Zeus then proceeded to call on Scarlet through the phone, "Yes sir?" She said, "Call Hades and tell him to come here I need to talk to him", "Sure thing boss".
Full on lights in every part near and on the buildings on Grand Vilstine, flood through out the streets and everyone in the city getting umbrellas, but the vandalism does not even get lowered even on a rainy day, people getting robbed on parts of the city on buildings and streets but in a particular one something to get feared from is happening.
The streets laid slick with water from the rains, Signs of suggestive bar and desirable places where you would like to go on times of misery. The Alley otherwise barren, a lone man scurried across the road with an umbrella thrown over his head. The sunlight peered through the spaces between buildings, reflecting in a mix of natural hues and sunlight. The man, obviously drunk and having a breath of whiskey and scotch on his mouth reflecting a harsh night of just wasted time in nothing less than a time of getting drunk, the man also him was with mess hair, untied clothes and just that umbrella he had on his hand, if you saw him you probably thought he had a harsh life or a harsh wife.
The man stumble upon his footstep as he walked out of the bar and out of the valley, then after walking ten or nine feet he saw that a weird looking crow was just right in front of his eyes and down on the front of his feet, it had the most common of colors of that a crow could have, but it had very astounding platinum eyes that could reflex the light of the sun trough them. The man was weird it out yet astonished by how the crow looked, then the pressure of something upon his back body felt a presence of something or someone, he turned his hole body around to see what was it.

It was a man wearing a black open trench coat with a white shirt, black boots and badass black leather pants, Hair black long and moved to the sides of his face, a face not too dark nor too light firm voice little of a chin, but the most obviously gripping of it all was his non-pupil platinum eyes, yes the same ones as the crow, the man recognized them and got aware of who he was instantly.
Even this drunk he still could use some vocabulary "Hel..Hello Mr Hades, long tim..e..ee that I have not seen you, so..soo what brings you here?" He said, "You know what you did Timothy" Hades firmly said, "Mmmh what?, I do not remember sir can you explain to me what.. di..did I do?" Then Timothy in a mili second snapped and remembered "Oh, yes yes sir now I rem.. remember.. I got fired, yes yes yes" his face faced started to change into a very drunk smile, "It was becau..ssee I did those thin..gs, I was supposed to get those people to.. to the underground facility for the Treon Injections... But instead I decid..ed to.. uhh" then he stumbled a lot more upon his words, "Yes it was because you put all of them there, but one woman" Hades helped him finishing what he was going to say, but Timothy proceeded as he was drunk and needed something to confess, "Yeah instead I g..ot her on my ca..r and took her there without no one knowin..g" Then he moved his chin upwards, "And I enjoyed ever..y bit.. of..of what I did, It was da..mn worth gettin' fir...".
His words succumbed right there, as Hades called the crow to move to his should by calling him of the name "Mates" and pushed both of the ends of the trench coat and gave space for his hands to grabbed two of a bunch of Throwing knifes he had on the white shirt, they were black and pointy end that the overall of it was perfectly made for incrustating on a human body with not much force. Hades threw two of the knifes right on guys legs shattering both of the bones on his knees making him knee down, then Hades threw another two, one on the guys mouth and another right on his forehead, making him succumb to death and not even allowing him to scream, Hades then proceeded to go walk to the death guy and pull out all of the knife while two people were looking from the bar to see what was happening and when they looked Hades was just straight up looking at them with a stare that got their heads thing of the words and just decided to enter the bar on their own will while Hades was pulling all of the knifes from Timothy.
A call came to his phone and he answered, "Yes, yes I am on my way" He said as he hanged up and walked away to the shadows of that day leaving no trace of him but just a death body of a man who who knows might have deserved the death or his life to keep going but that would of been easy in a city like Grand Vilstine is.
Later that day Hades arrived to the top floor where Zeus was waiting for him, "Did you do it?" Zeus asked, "Yeah I did" he said with the firm voice that he had, "Good good he deserve it, we might be killers here but at least we are loyal to what we do and do not mess around with manure like that, good job, but now I need you to you and your crows to do something", "Yeah what is it?" Hades said, "Well you see there is a team of who knows what kind if megalomaniacs trying to get in the way of us doing things, we still do not have info of who might they be but just a description of a face that Asclepius has on his head, but that is all, now would mind looking around with your crows and working to find them" Zeus said, "Sure" Hades said as he walked away, " This is why we got you, you got skills my friend and that ability of you looking through the crows eyes with nano machines just tickles my thoughts of how skillful you are, even if this is what let you to be blind, good job Hades" Zeus said as Hades walked away with Mates on his shoulder as his own eyes and of what he could see, but he could see through every crow that he has, they have nano machines on their eyes that made Hades look through all of them making him the perfect watcher for Cytro without Cytro being in the place.

The Normal Dungeon Core: Lethe
Just a normal, standard, no extra frills or gills, dungeon core LitRPG novel in a fantastical world. And as usual, a system exists! Prologue: You know all those stories about reincarnation? Where our beloved (or hated) protagonists are transferred to a new world to conquer, defeat the demon lord, rescue the princess. or are made into mythical gems of power with control over Monsters and Men (psst..a dungeon core)? Where they get a cheat-like ability, are special, granted privileges, or have knowledge from another world? Well, I read about them too in my spare time before I came here. At least, I think I did. Now, you might be asking, where is 'here' ? To answer your somewhat specific, yet vague, question my dear audience...I don't know! But what I do know is that...well nothing other than I had a past life...I think... Anyway...You are correct in assuming that I was indeed reincarnated into a dungeon core! But... ..I have no idea who I was. ...I don't seem to have any special powers or skills or cheats. ....And I was specifically told by Mr. S that I am not, and never will be, "special." Now, if you are confused, then I'm doing a great job, because you probably have no idea what I'm talking about, I haven't given you a background story, or taken you through the last few hours of my new existence. We will get to that! I promise! The main reason I am telling you this absurd and completely delusional preface, is to introduce to you the idea that I, as in me, the new dungeon core, am not "special".............. With that out of the way, how about we rewind time a bit to when I...developed my consciousness? Yes? Great! Lets goooooo! ---------
