To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 195: Three Sin gathered

"So, Mrs. Hera. You came straight from Eve Horizon to get here, right? That means, you pass the Great Mountains, Northern Frontier."

"Yes, indeed."

Their two emperor was having a meeting that couldn't be bothered. So Arlene took Hera inside and served with coffee while waiting. 

"Hey, my existence here is not really necessary, right?"

Alexander is in the room too because of Hera's order. 

"You stay here. I have a few things I want to ask you."

Alexander, an Emperor ranked Hunter and King of a Kingdom, being ordered by one certain woman. 

Just by looking, Arlene could tell that Hera is not just an ordinary Legend. She has some kind of influence as the Saints that she could control two Emperor except Ars, yet.

When she had the chance, Arlene wanted to get as much information as she could.

"So, you flew through the Great Mountains to get here? That means you've been here the same way before?"

"No, this is the first time I done that. Pretty impressive, I could say, those eagles."

Arlene smile in amazed and amusement at Hera's guts.

__________

Abyssal Terra / Floor 2 

Great Mountains, Northern Frontier / 

Definition / The barrier separating the North Region from the Northeastern and Northwestern Region. High mountains that are impossible to pass. Has many cave holes that lead to Thousands of Underground Passages. 

Track: Mountains. Only can be passed by flying.

__________

"It's actually easy to pass the mountains if you have a flying mount like we have here."

"I'm not a mount you can use!"

Hera's group passed the mountain by riding the Alpha Eagles. Alex can transform into a winged creature. Ars also have flying vehicles. Passing the Great Mountains is actually not impossible. 

"But it is for the civilian."

Flying Mount and Vehicles is rare, and the cost of the flying services is expensive. So, only rich people could use it. 

"I hope we have a way to connect at least the North and Northwest region."

If Hera's hopes come true, trade sector between the two regions will run more smoothly. Because they don't have to go through the Southwest Stream to meet.

Talking about the possibility, Arlene remembered something about the past. 

"In the past, Isn't there a group of Excavating Hunters who want to connect two regions through Thousands Under Passages?"

Hera remembers that too. 

"Yes, indeed. They were trying to penetrate one Great Mountain from the North Region to Northwest region. Their goal is to build a railroad that connects the two regions. But unfortunately, they can't beat the cave and get out to North region with losing many of their member and empty hands."

In the past, the expedition gave high hopes to the two regions. But it ended in disappointment and was considered impossible to conquer.

~~~~~~~~~

"Ars! Ooohhh! You are so-*sniff-sniff*-fragrant! I can't hold it! *sniff-sniff* aaaaaahhh!"

"Stooooopp!"

After jumping and hugging Ars tight, Huxian started doing some humiliation. 

Elisa tries to pull her off from Ars.

"I can't! *sniffing intensified* You are so-*sniff-aaaahhhh! Please, let me lick you! *lick*"

"Noooooo! Stop that!"

One of them keeps sniffing and starts licking. The other still tries her best to pull her enemy. 

"What are you doing?"

Meanwhile, the subject they were fighting over was standing, watching them a few steps from their position. 

The object they hold was just a standing log. 

"[Shadow Art - Shadow Clone]" said Ars while doing ninjutsu poses finger.

Knowing she didn't hold the real Ars, like a cat, Huxian jumped over to Ars. 

"ARS!"

In the same speed, Elisa stopped Huxian from touching Ars. 

"No!"

Huxian's hand and feet finally caught the real Ars. 

"AAARRSS!"

But Elisa is in the middle of Huxian and Ars to push Huxian away. 

"Stop that! You pervert!"

Huxian tries really hard to kisses Ars. Elisa tries really hard to push Huxian away from Ars. 

Like a solid object, Ars just standing still, dumb-founded. 

"Ars! Haaa! Finally! After holding my lust for this one year! Finally, I can!"

"Nooo! You can't! Don't you dare touch him!"

Elisa will not let Huxian to touch Ars. Even though she begins to lose her breath and energy for pushing Huxian. 

Until finally Huxian step back and stop for getting to Ars. 

"Just who are you?!"

Unfortunately, she is not really stopping. She is just getting ready to battle Elisa with her cat-like pose. 

As a Priest, of course, that scared her. But she will not step back when her beloved one was going to be humiliated by someone. 

"I-I am... I am his..."

However, how should she answer Huxian's questions?

Yes, she and Ars have some kind of special relationship. An uncertain special relationship where they actually don't really know what they are to each other. 

"He is... he is."

Elisa couldn't think of anything.

"Move over."

Ars pushed Elisa to step aside. He is going to face Huxian himself. 

If Ars has decided, Elisa can't do anything about it. 

Like an excited cat, Huxian wagging her nine tail and sits like a cat. 

A really beautiful girl. Wearing high class Hanfu dress. Has fox ear and nine tails. Her hair and tail coloured in beautiful bright white like a silk. 

If Ars did not meet with Fafnir and obtain the power of Greed, maybe he would be in love to death to Huxian. 

"So, you are the Sin of Lust."

"Yes!"

Luckily, Ars is the Sin of Greed. Having just Huxian is not enough to satisfy his greed. 

Elisa let Ars speaking with the pervert girl. But she still holds Ars tight. In case the pervert girl would try to attack Ars once again. 

Ars gave his hand to Huxian. "Hand."

Huxian touch Ars' hand like a dog. "Woof."

"Roll over."

Huxian rolling over as Ars order. "Woof!"

"Somersault."

Huxian did one somersault as Ars order. "Woof!"

"Good girl!"

Ars patting Huxian's head because of her good job. 

Behind, Elisa was thinking. 'What have I witness?'

The two of them just met. One of them previously trying to attack the other. But Ars turned the scene into comedic line.

That being said. Because Ars had accepted Huxian. 

"That means it's okay, right?! I will just take off my clothes and we are doing it, right?!"

"Noooooooo!"

Huxian still wanted Ars inside her. 

But once again, Elisa was there to stop her.

Irritated, Huxian folds her hands. Showed a hostile expression towards Elisa.

Not a fighter, Elisa did not know how to react to Huxian's hostile. 

"Who are you, really? You are not affected by my Lust? And always trying to stop me from getting to Ars."

Huxian actually doesn't know how to deal with Elisa either.

"She didn't get affected by your lust?" asked Ars, curious.

"Yes!"

Excited because Ars curious about her ability, Huxian explained her ability. 

[Ability: Lust of the Fox Goddess]

[Description: Ability to instantly make people who hear, see, or smell the Fox Goddess scent fell in love with her to death.]

That is a simple yet horrible ability. 

"You are not affected by my lust because you are great and strong, Ars! But, what's with this girl? She even trying to defy my existence."

That is a good question that Ars doesn't even know the answer either. 

"E-eh?"

So Elisa being questioned indirectly. 

Why she did not get affected by Huxian's Lust? She didn't even know anything about that ability before Huxian explained.

"That's why I don't know anything about it, and I am not letting you get close to him!"

Elisa hugged Ars. Not wanting to share Ars with Huxian. 

Accepting Elisa's challenge, Huxian hostility goes high and ready to battle against Elisa. 

"Calm."

"Yes!"

Huxian calmed down as Ars order. 

Now that the two Sin of the Five is in his hand. So he can go down to the 3rd Floor if he wants.

"You will follow me wherever I will go, right?"

"Absolutely! I will follow you even if you go down to the depth of hell!"

"Then you will give your everything to me so I can achieve my goal, right?"

"Yes. My pleasure is your pleasure."

Ars, with unknown intention, getting close to Huxian and begin to touch the girl's face. 

Because that was Ars doing, Elisa can't do anything to hold Ars. But she still trembling in confused. 'Eh? Eh?! Is he really-?'

Huxian closed her eyes as Ars touching her face with his right hand. 

Ars, gently touching Huxian's tiny face. Then his thumb touch Huxian middle forehead. After that "[Absorbing Mana]"

"Geeeeeeeeeee!"

Ars absorbing Huxian's mana to be restored to the Unlimited Inventory. 

The process is like absorbing the life of the target. Huxian felt she is on the tip of death while Ars absorbing her mana. 

"Eh?! Eeeeeehhhh?!"

Taking cover behind Ars, Elisa did not know what was going on and could only stare while confusing. 

~~~~~~~~~~~

"It's unbelievable."

Hera could not believe what she witnessed. 

"She is, so beautiful."

Arlene got dumbfounded. 

"Why are they fighting?"

Skadi curious because of the fight between a lion girl and fox girl.

"Ars! Ars!"

"Don't cuddle him too much!"

Ars bringing Huxian to the group without worrying about Huxian's Curse.

Now that three Staff Saint's Children gathered in one room. The Sin of Greed, the Sin of Envy, and the Sin of Lust.
