Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297 – Unexpected Visitors
From the outside, it didn’t look like a prison cell. It looked more like a hotel executive suite.
There were four rooms, living room, bedroom, reception room, and bathroom. In the room, there was a TV, refrigerator, air-conditioning, and other appliances. There was a soft bed, 24-hour hot water, there was also a fresh fruit and food supply.
The people inside could basically do anything they wanted except not go out. In fact, there was a burst of cheerful singing coming from the bathroom.
Seth soaked his body in the bathtub and hummed a tune while squeezing milk and orange-flavored body wash on his arms to make bubbles. He seemed to be very satisfied with the treatment he received, he even grinned at the surveillance camera above his head as if he was greeting the person on the other end of the surveillance camera.
“How arrogant!”In the room next door, a woman wearing a suspenders and a ponytail suddenly threw the switch on the table and said angrily.
“What’s Wrong?”Beside her, a handsome boy who looked like a trainee and was dressed very fashionably was watching the new issue of creation 102 on his computer. When he heard her, he took off his headphones.
“What does that bastard think he’s doing? Is he participating in a reality show? He has to make an expression for the camera every half an hour. I’m so angry!”
“After all, he’s the God of Chaos. He must want to make trouble all the time. I feel sorry for him,”the trainee said.
“What’s there to feel sorry for?”
“It’s said that more than a thousand years ago, he was considered a big shot. He had many believers and even built many shrines for him. But now, other than a few tourist attractions, the rest have long disappeared. He himself has also gone from a first-tier God to a washed-up clown. Usually, at times like this, he will try his best to hype himself up and attract attention. After all, in this day and age, black and red are also red. The most terrifying thing is that there is no traffic.”The student spun the basketball at her fingertips.

“Don’t mess up your star-making formula, okay?”The girl with a ponytail rolled her eyes and opened the bowl of instant noodles in front of her.
The trainee, however, smiled, “Nowadays, there’s no difference between being a god and being a star. Everyone lives for the sake of traffic. Why is that old God Thor so powerful? Isn’t it because of the huge box office sales of the Avengers? Otherwise, what’s the difference between him and Seth? Now is no longer the era of those barbarians. If you have time to train your muscles, you might as well run a few more announcements.”
“That’s true.”The girl with a ponytail agreed. She took out another box of instant noodles and asked her partner, “Do You Want One?”
The trainee frowned and showed a look of disdain. “I have to ensure that the nutrition is balanced. I can’t eat this kind of junk food.”
“Tch, I’m happy to see celebrities eating instant noodles on a show.”
“It’s just the effect of the show.”The trainee acted as if he knew everything. “It doesn’t matter if he smiles in front of the camera or vomits in the back. As long as the image on the screen is OK, it won’t be a problem.”
The two people chatting in the monitoring room were the guards guarding Seth. Logically speaking, Seth was an old God after all. Although he wasn’t very famous now, in terms of combat strength, even the ponytailed girl and the trainee wouldn’t be a match for him, however, the organizing committee obviously wouldn’t arrange for them to send him to his death.
In fact, Seth had already gone through more than one round of interrogation before he was sent here. Moreover, the organizing committee had also dealt with his body and sealed his divine power, right now, Seth’s body was only that of an ordinary person. He couldn’t use any supernatural powers. Basically, once the door was locked, he couldn’t go anywhere.

However, what the ponytailed girl and the trainee did not expect was that while the two of them were chatting, the door to Seth’s room was suddenly kicked open from the outside.
When they saw the appearance of the person on the screen, the two of them were shocked. They looked at each other. After a moment, the ponytailed girl asked in a trembling voice, “What should we do?”
“Send an email to inform the organizing committee first!”The trainee said. His expression was uncertain, “I didn’t expect that there really was something fishy between the two of them. I already said that none of the old gods are good. This time, I want to see how those Scandinavian gods will quibble.”
At this moment, the person who had barged into the room was none other than Thor. He looked like he was about to fly into a rage, and his eyes seemed like they were about to spew fire. After entering the room, he did not stop and directly plunged into the bathroom.
Seth wasn’t surprised to see Thor. He just sighed, “Is the son of Odin so rude? He ran into someone else’s bathroom without even knocking on the door. What, do you think it’s rocky who’s taking a bath here?”
Before he could finish his words, Thor grabbed him by the neck and dragged him out of the bathroom.
Seth’s throat was making noises because Thor had used too much strength. His eyes were almost squeezed out of his eyes.
Although Thor wanted to hammer this bastard to death right now, he had no choice but to let go of his hand before he found his wife’s whereabouts.
Seth’s body slid to the floor of the bathroom. He held the bath and coughed dryly, then laughed, “How Strange is this? Your Wife is missing, but you didn’t hurry to find her but came to me instead. Why didn’t you ask the organizing committee? I’ve been a prisoner here all this time, and I haven’t done anything.”
Loki heard him and smashed his hammer into the bathtub behind Seth, shattering it into pieces.
The splashing cement and porcelain pieces left streaks of blood on Seth’s naked body, but the latter’s expression remained unchanged. “What a pity. I quite like this bathtub.”
Thor had already used this blow to release part of the anger he had suppressed in his heart. He calmed down a little and put away his hammer. He looked up at the surveillance camera above him.
Then, he picked up a set of clothes and threw it on Seth. “Put it on. You like to play games for me? Well, let’s have a good game. Forget about those annoying rules. It’s just you and me.”
“You have no idea what you’re doing.”Seth wiped the blood off his face and put away his indifferent look, “You’ve already killed a new God and escaped from your room. Now You Want to kidnap me from here. Do you really think that the organizing committee is just a decoration?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. When the matter is over, I will naturally apologize to the organizing committee. You should worry more about yourself. I can guarantee that for the next 24 hours, you will be in Hell until you bring me to my wife.”
“Oh, it sounds quite interesting.”Seth put on his clothes and was once again strangled by Thor. The two figures rushed out of the room and disappeared into the camera, only the trainee and the ponytail girl were left looking at each other.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
