The Greece Antagonist

Chapter 243 I've Never Seen Such a Request in My Life (5.1k) _2

In the roar, Melinoe decisively threw the two daggers in her hand, Luo En immediately sealed his spinning sword technique cautiously, deflecting the blades aimed at his face.

However, in the moment when Luo En switched from offense to defense, the previously vigorous Goddess of Conspiracy did not advance but retreated, decisively heading for the garden's exit.

A bit clever, but not by much.

Luo En sneered, casually snapping his fingers.

In an instant, Melinoe found the rocks and woods under her feet become shadows upon shadows, and the path before her eyes turned and twisted as if it had no end.

"Did you wonder why, despite our noisy fight and all the commotion, no guards from the Netherworld have come running?"

Luo En spoke eerily, holding the golden bough, walking unhurriedly towards the Goddess of Conspiracy, who was still wandering in the dense forest, unable to find a way out.

At the same time, the silhouettes of [Goat] and [Bull] flickered behind him.

Whether it's Pan's [Goat] or the [Bull] from Crete Island, both possess the characteristics of the [Labyrinth]; one inclined towards nature, and the other towards man-made.

The combination of the two, plus the blood cruelty of Athena, the Lady of the Labyrinth, allowed Luo En to somewhat replicate a similar enclosed space – a plan to trap and deal with the enemy.@@@@

Otherwise, he wouldn't dare openly discipline this princess of the Netherworld within the domain of the Netherworld.

Seeing escape was hopeless, Melinoe made a decisive decision, pulling out a dagger with a pale purple blade, twisted in shape, and the hilt engraved with dense runes, from the Magic Circle Diagram. She fiercely slashed her palm, dripping the golden Divine Blood onto the Netherworld's soil while solemnly chanting.

Soon, the monster who had body but no brains was reduced to dust motes in the blazing white fire, fell apart, and flowed back into the Magic Circle Diagram, continuing to enjoy his eternal divine punishment.

"Worthless!"

Seeing the giant, on whom she had pinned high hopes, dispatched in a mere moment and having barely run a few steps away, Melinoe cursed inwardly, forcefully cutting two new gashes in her hand and again sprinkling Divine Blood.

Immediately, two new Magic Circle Diagrams formed, and two pitch-black figures emerged with the crisp sound of breaking chains. One wielding a Sword and Shield and the other a Longbow, they stood at the front of the Netherworld princess as if they were two fierce dogs that had slipped their chains, baring their teeth at outsiders.

"Ixion, Tantalus, you go together! Stop that guy!"

Hearing their master's command, the two fierce dogs rushed forward in a fight to show off first.

They would rather battle to the death against a formidable enemy than spend another moment in the pits of Tartarus.

Even if they died fighting for this princess of the Netherworld, as long as they performed well, it could grant them a chance for a brief respite from the endless torment.

Seeing the two Netherworld specters rushing towards him, Luo En touched his forehead and shook his head, silently criticizing internally.

Why are there always two more worthless people...

Ixion, the former King of Thessaly. He was handsome, dashing, and incredibly strong, blessed with good looks from birth.

Having heard of a neighboring kingdom's princess known for her beauty, he asked King Dionysus to marry her to him. Dionysus consented under pressure; not willing to ruin his daughter's life, he asked Ixion for a hefty bride price.

Ixion pretended to agree to the dowry and invited Dionysus to a banquet, where he plotted to push Dionysus into a pit of fire to his death. Ixion's crime infuriated the entire nation and led to his expulsion. With nowhere to turn, he fled to Zeus and pleaded with the father of the gods for forgiveness for his dishonesty.
