1498 Lord Hades vs Godfather Hephaestus. I

Ten minutes ago, right at the start of the invasion...

Whoosh Whoosh!

Lord Hades and Godfather Hephaestus manifested away from each other in the desolate heart of the spirit realm, where ethereal mists swirled and the boundaries of reality blurred.

Hades, cloaked in shadows that danced like sentient tendrils, exuded an aura of austere authority.

His piercing gaze, like the abyss itself, bore the weight of tens of billions of years spent as the guardian of the underworld...His presence was an embodiment of the enigmatic laws that governed the souls and spirits of the departed.

On the other hand, Godfather Hephaestus radiated an incandescent heat that defied the ethereal chill of the spirit realm.

Their eyes, two opposing cosmic forces, met in the middle of nowhere. A void that seemed to stretch beyond the realms of existence.

The air crackled with an unspoken tension, and the ethereal mists churned as if bearing witness to an epochal confrontation.

The only spectators to this holy cosmic standoff were the mindless wandering spirits, moving around the spirit realm with no thought in mind, no emotion in heart.

"Hades, you have grown soft." Godfather Hephaestus criticized, "Moving us away from your precious little toy to not damage it? Here I thought you created that plane and gave spirits a new life out of boredom...You actually care about them."

Lord Hades remained silent, neither agreeing nor opposing his claim. This irritated Godfather Hephaestus even more.

"You called us sell-outs for uniting under the three rulers and abiding by their systemic hierarchy, but aren't you doing the same?" Godfather Hephaestus sneered, "The only difference is that you put yourself in a leadership position and lorded upon those poor spirits, who can't object to you at all."

"Just be honest and accept the fact that you wouldn't have made it far in our hierarchy, which made it impossible for your ego to accept." Godfather Hephaestus scoffed, "As for being loyal to the nonexistent master? It's a mere excuse to hide your true cowardly nature."

"Are you done?" Lord Hades remarked calmly.

"No answer again? I guess I hit the nail right on the head."
