Chapter 239: Staying Alive



Chapter 239: Staying Alive

Floor 3 / Sector 2

Eria /

[Sin of Greed, the Dragon King is disappearance once more.]

Ars' wives provide that information to the public to explain Ars inactivity. 

Ars has not appeared in public for more than a month.

He did not even show up for Floor 2 and Floor 3 connecting celebrations.

Floor 2 people who were come down to Floor 3 expect him to appear and become urge of the forwardness.

Troy is a great man of preparing all things to newcomers from the upper floor. But it was Ars who successfully connecting upper Floor to Floor 3. 

Ars consider himself as Dragon King. But upper floor folks calls him as the Hero and Future Hope. 

Why Hero and Future Expectation? Because he had saved upper floor from big event catastrophe, a few times. 

Future Expectation given to him because he is the strongest candidate to reach the Depth of Abyss other than Troy. 

All that things were not just happen offhand. 

A certain group who called themselves, [Fan of the Dragon King], gathered all the unknown information about Ars actually saved Floor 2 from all the catastrophe, and not just him being Greedy and and take advantage of all the calamities happened. 

Plus, Ars' excellent appearance on the attack of Echidna, strengthen the speculation that Ars was not actually a bad guy. 

He came at the right time that day and saved the day gallantly. 

Huxian and Alexander's unification of forces determined everything.

With the two Emperor becoming Ars' wife and right hand, Ars officially became the supreme leader of Floor 1 and 2.

That was why Floor 2 newcomer wanted Ars to greet them.

Eria / Palace of Moccus 

"Ooh, I just knew about that!"

Troy was reading an article about Ars being brought in by the new people from Floor 2.

"But, Alexander, huh? I thought it was just Huxian who taking side with Ars."

Troy still does not know that the handsome man Ars was always with is Alexander.

"He did some crazy shits and gain the admiration of Floor 1 and 2 people! Isn't that great, Shiva?!"

A young man, handsome with darkish skin, sat back on his gliding throne next to Troy. 

"...huuhhh~"

"Hey, cheer up! We finally able to connect this Floor to upper Floor! This is a great achievement!"

Troy finally able to bring out Shiva from his all day nap. 

Sin of Sloth, Shiva. Just like his title, he is very lazy. 

Troy's light and excitement kept him from sleeping, and that bothered him so much.

"Yeah-yeah. He is so great. Can I go to my room now?"

He had only been there for about five minutes and already asked to leave.

"One thing before you leave. What do you think about Alexander?"

"Coward, as always. Alright, I'll leave."

With just that, Shiva leave the room. Leaving Troy with just two personal maids. 

Shiva might be the Sin of Sloth. But in the past, he participated in more battles than Alexander.

That was why he could call Alexander coward despite he is younger than Alexander. 

Plus, the two of three Floor 2 Sins, Greed and Lust, had come to Floor 3. Meanwhile, he still locked himself in the Floor 2. 

It made Alexander's stamp of cowardice even stronger.

Troy does not know that Alexander did come to Floor 3 along with Ars, though. 

That because Troy only knows Alexander in his original form. Not in the handsome prince-like form.

Palace of Fafnir / 

When Ocean Abyss Pit station was completed, and Floor 2 was officially connected to Floor 3, the station was unceasingly operating.

People, goods, and information are actively imported and exported every day.

All things were just ordinary stuff to be imported and exported. But the information of the disappearance of Ars quite shocked Floor 2.

Especially the one wife that Ars left in Mutiara City. 

Sylvia rushed to Eria from Mutiara City after receiving the correct information about Ars. 

Arriving at Eria, Palace of Fafnir, she was immediately led to Ars's room, where Ars was sleeping helplessly with his left hand cut off.

Just like the other wife, she cried over Ars' condition, and what happened to Elisa. 

She both regretted and relieved of Ars saved Elisa from abnormal Infection.

The two of them are her precious person. If she loses even just one, she might not be able to recover from the pain of losing. 

"Big sis, are you okay traveling this far?"

Sylvia is the second wife to become pregnant after Huxian. 

Her pregnancy was at the state where her stomach was already bulging.

It was literally quite dangerous for mothers who are pregnant to go through a very long journey.

"Don't worry. That's why it took me three days to come here."

The regular time of travelling from Middle Region of Floor 2 to Eria of Floor 3 is two days. 

But Sylvia made a day trip from the Middle Region to the Northeast Region. Rest for a day at the North Coast Palace. Then continue the journey to Floor 3 on the third day.

With that, she will not stress herself and the baby inside her too much. 

"Besides, I would be even more worried if I didn't look at your situation myself."

Sylvia takes her time to look at Elisa closely. She showed an expression filled with melancholy.

They had only been separated for over a month, but Sylvia realized that Elisa had grown so much.

It might be because the usual, cheerful Elisa is now feeling immense responsibility for her actions.

Yes, the cause of Ars' condition was because Elisa's carelessness. She thought it was fine for her to hold her pain. Until the pain became more dreadful, and she almost died because of it. 

"I don't know what will happen if Ars give up on you back then."

It was said, during Elisa's crisis, she could only last two days.

However, at that unbelievable moment, Ars was not giving up on Elisa, and find a way to save her, by sacrificing himself. 

Sylvia put her two hands on Elisa's face, then pull Elisa closer to her. 

Their foreheads knit together at that moment.

"Thank you for staying alive."

In that soft, tender word, Elisa starts crying again. 

She cries her heart out after so many things happened. 

All things happened stressed her out. She felt very guilty and felt that people around her continued to blame her for what had happened.

She could only cry beside Ars or when she was alone.

Sylvia's arrival was like an oasis in the desert, calmed her and took away her burden.
