"Theseus."
Jas seed surprised to hear the na, every single person around realised that his eyes had widened.
"Theseus? The child of Poseidon? King of Athens?"
When Jas uttered these words with the astonishnt that had ford in him, the attention of the people around him was centred on him in a greater dinsion.
"Yes, sir.... but aren't you from outside the tower? Did Ronald tell you about ?"
Theseus, on the other hand, was more surprised than Jas, as if he had never expected such words.
"My friend, you are a hero in my world. Your stories have been told since ancient tis, you have a place in books. The man who slaughtered Minator, the man who founded Athens."
Jas had said these words with a smile, indeed, although he had a little mythological admiration he had gained from the gas, he was a hero of legends...a god, he could not express how excited he was.
Theseus was on the verge of tears of joy.
"I don't know how my deeds have reached your world, but I am honoured, sir."
Theseus was talking more than was necessary and Jas was well aware of this, after a few seconds of thought he shook his head and then put his hand on Theseus' shoulder:
"Call Umbra, I changed my nickna to be a shadow of Lady Nyx, you deserve to know."
Then, without even waiting for Theseus to say, he yawned deeply and sat down at a table with a few steps.
"Here Theseus, please sit down, I want to hear at length how you slaughtered the minator."
With these words Theseus removed his armour and handed it to the servants beside him, he slowly sat down in the chair in front of Jas and at the other end of the table and began to speak. It was going to be a very long conversation, but none of it seed to matter, and what was happening on the other side of the 5th floor seed to be a deeper indication of Jas' future dangers.
"Nyx's dog finally finished the tutorial."
"We realise, he seems to have made a big noise. He even changed his nickna, Umbra. It's weird to know he's ranked so high in the ranked system."
"Yeah. Finishing first on the second floor. The shitty psychopath actually killed a Goblin King, a full-blooded Goblin King in full power."
"We must be careful, we don't know what Nyx has given him, Nesis is watching us, Nesis is protecting him."
"Isn't it frightening to have the eyes of the Goddess of Vengeance, War and Balance upon us?"
"I think it's exciting. The war has begun, and anything goes. Either we kill Umbra or we will get punished, we can't let him go to the upper floors."
One after the other, the words seed to express a deep hatred for Nyx and thoughts about killing Jas.
Neither Nyx nor Jas knew what was going on, but Nesis, one of Nyx's daughters, was watching these gods, which was why they couldn't get their way in so many things.
The eyes of the Goddess of Chaos were on them. It was both a great honour and a great misfortune.
"So... Tell Sopdu, what are you planning?"
When one of the gods uttered these words, the god called Sopdu took a dallion to the table and showed it to each of them.
"This is my plan, we will wait for him to reach the 10th floor. There are already thousands of gods targeting him, if he lives until the 10th floor, my warrior will kill him."
When the god called Sopdu uttered these words, the others smiled with relief, if the dallion on the table was real and his warrior was allowed to use it, none of them needed to think about Jas, he would die anyway.
All the while one of the gods among them suddenly spoke up, looking flustered.
"What about Ra? If he finds out what you have done, he will destroy you. The Egyptian gods are friends with Olympus, you know that, and Ra himself has been friends with Chaos for a long ti."
Sopdu trembled for a second as he said these words and then said, "I realise, I am flustered and that is why we must not get caught by Nesis under any circumstances, if he finds out what we have done, Ra will destroy not only but all of us."
These words seed to have caught the attention of every single god, if sothing went wrong and the effects of this mysterious dallion failed, if Jas survived, they would be destroyed.
This alone seed to show the destructiveness of war and betrayal.
Theseus, on the other hand, seed to be nearing the end of his story.
"So I was able to kill the Minator, it was very difficult and as I said, I had to betray soone, of course she is now my wife, but you know what I an."
After Theseus' words, Jas yawned where he was and then said, "If the people in my world heard that I listened to the story of one of the heroes from his mouth, they would either call crazy or worship . It was worth the whole hour we sat here."
Jas, who stood up after all this, looked deeply at Theseus and then asked, "Is there a place where I can stay around here, Master Theseus?"
These words seed to surprise everyone in the guild.
"I'm sorry, Mr Umbra, don't you want to stay in the Olympus Guild?"
These words seed to make Jas smile, it seed to push him to speak again:
"Oh no... As I said, my na is Umbra. I gave it that nickna for my lady and I have no plans to stop until I reach her or even Chaos. It should not be Umbra of Olympus, it should be Umbra of Chaos."
Theseus, the Asgardians, and the rest of the guild shuddered with astonishnt as he uttered these words. Even if it wasn't an ordinary player, the fact that a player made it clear that he would join Chaos like this made them all tremble with fear.
What title had Lady Nyx, the Mother of Night, given him that he could say such things?
