Chapter 2777 Gloria and Ruth

    In another part of the Hell…


    Gloria and Ruth came across a Reincarnation Wheel very close to them and barely had time to think about Minos and Abby. The two tried to distance themselves from the area, fearful of the sensation they had just experienced in this deste ce.


    They both tried to fly away, but the gravity of the Hell was too strong for mere low-level Supremes. They could only keep running, until, when they were far enough away from where they felt that horrible sensation, they slowed to a stop.


    "What was that?" Gloria asked Ruth, still feeling the chills.


    They had appeared so close to one of the Reincarnation Wheels that they felt as if their souls were going to be sucked into that phenomenon. They almost lost some of their memories for the mere moments they spent near that unique essence, but luckily escaped in time.


    "I don''t know. But it''s not something we should go near," Ruth said as she took a quick breath, looking around to make sure none of it was near them.


    "What about Minos and Abby?" Finally feeling better, Gloria asked about herpanions.


    "Are they likely to be sent to the same ce as us?" Ruth wasn''t sure, but considered how she and Gloria ended up in the same ce. "Maybe, or maybe not. We can''t ignore the fact that they have characteristics that are much morepatible with the Hell than we do."


    Although there were all kinds ofws in the Hell, the densest to be found there were definitely negative ones, rted to death, decay, and destruction. A necromancer and someone as defiant as Minos would certainly see this ce as a great opportunity and naturally, it wouldn''t be strange if they were ''treated'' differently.


    "It''s true. And Minos and Abby can look after themselves. We have to worry about what to do in this ce and how to get out of here." Gloria remembered their ns.


    It wasn''t exactly their aim to unlock the Hell. Their interest was in collecting the Drops of Hell and, if possible, finding out more about their origin. But apart from that, they wanted to return as quickly as possible to the guild''s headquarters in Uzira to return to their seclusion.


    "Let''s try to find a safe ce for ourselves. We''ll try to understand this ce a little better and then we''ll go out and look for a way out. I don''t know exactly how this ce works, but there are certainly exit points connected to Zocarro." Ruth decided, rapidly getting Gloria''s agreement.


    "Which way should we go? This ce seems uniform to me. I feel that whichever direction we go, we''ll arrive at simr ces in terms of spiritual wealth and dangers."


    "I feel the same way." Ruth agreed as she shook her beautiful, shiny ck hair. "Let''s follow our instincts. None of us have tracking or investigative skills, so we can only go that route for now.


    My ability is regenerative, so I think I''ll rely on your ability to fight. But let''s see what we can do or learn when we understand this ce better."


    The two started walking again, heading in a different direction from where they had arrived, always keeping an eye out for Reincarnation Wheels or even enemies.


    But even after hours of traveling in silence, they wouldn''t meet any opponents on their way. The Hell seemed like a dimension abandoned of living beings. Only souls near the Reincarnation Wheels seemed present apart from Abby and Gloria.


    Eventually, they came across a mountainous area where there seemed to be empty underground structures. They proceeded with an exploration, discovering that the ce they found was indeed empty. But the ce was no simple natural cave.


    Seeing symbols and various ancient items around the underground area they entered, Ruth and Gloria were sure that this ce had a great history.


    "I''m not sensing anything threatening at the moment. Let''s continue with our ns and find out what this ce ister," Ruth said as she sat down, curious to know what it would be like to cultivate in the Hell.


    Gloria felt the same way, but for the moment she stood guard, looking around curiously, calm enough not to venture into the unknown alone.


    ''We have plenty of time. I can see that we''ll be in the Hell for a long time...'' She sighed while Ruth was already in deep meditation.


    ''I''ll check this ce out with Ruth in the future. Now it''s time to wait.''


    ...


    Time passed and after what seemed like months of learning under Qhava''s tutge, Minos was ready to leave this Devil''s wing and follow his infernal purpose.


    The Hell had many peculiarities that Minos hadn''t known before. Some he even suspected, but wasn''t sure about.


    The Hell was not only the opposite of the Upper Realm; it was a staunch enemy of that dimension. ording to Qhava, the Hell was the maintainer of existence. It kept ces like Zocarro functioning by controlling the flow of dead souls, reincarnating those who passed the reincarnation requirements, while degrading the other souls who crossed the barrier of life and death.


    In a sense, Hell functioned as a form of universal recycling.


    But the Upper Realm, where there were immortal individuals, was the natural enemy of those behind the renewing force of the universes. So the Hell and its Devils fought against the Entitled Deities, as the True Celestials with positions in the Upper Realm were known.


    Entitled Deities were running away from their mortality and, many times, could control life and death beyond the rules of the Hell. This brought chaos and instability, which the Hell imed to fight against.


    Minos understood Qhava''s teachings and couldn''t deny how reasonable the Devils'' position seemed to be. But he wasn''t fooled. While he grew stronger by cultivating every day, he also remained skeptical.


    The version he knew of the story was the one told by Qhava, but was it really reliable?


    He wasn''t sure and didn''t want to decide who to believe until he had entered the Upper Realm and understood for himself. For now, he continued with his ns to get stronger and find the moment when he could look for his women.


    That moment had finally arrived today!


    He was now in front of Qhava and the few subordinates of this infernal ck woman, who had helped him with his training in the contest for the Throne of Hell.


    The Throne of Hell was the opposite of the Throne of the Upper Realm, which also existed and was the position of the leader of the dimension. Only an Absolute could sit on one throne andmand above everything and everyone.


    As the heir of a Devil, Minos not only had the right topete for the Throne of Hell, he had the obligation to join the contest.


    As much as Qhava''s group had been training him over thest few months, the real training was the contest against the other candidates for the throne!


    "I''ll wait for your good results, my disciple," Qhava said with a smile on her face. "Now go. Bring chaos to the domains of yourpetitors!"
