Adonis rushed inside Viktor’s study chamber and scread, "Master! Where have you been?"
Viktor was startled to see Adonis appear out of nowhere screaming at the top of his voice. Adonis and Viktor had a bond between them so the two of them can always sense their positions.
If one of them suddenly runs away, the other person can feel it. So Adonis was suddenly cut off from their connection right after Viktor went to another planet to leave Rae. Adonis was so shocked that he almost burned down the whole house.
Luckily, Viktor was back ho in no ti.
"Master!! At least inform when you’re leaving for work. I almost got a heart attack." Adonis then walked closer to Viktor and grabbed his shoulder. He again said, "Don’t scare like that, master."
Viktor pouted and said, "Why are you being so overprotective today-_-? It’s not like I was gone. And how can I even leave you alone here? You’re my knight."
"I appreciate the way you think of , master but don’t leave like that ever again."
"Oh..okay-_-." The puppy face of Adonis was so innocent that Viktor had no choice but to say yes.
Adonis then took a seat in front of him and said, "Master, everything is ready. When do you wish to leave? Everyone is looking forward to it."
Viktor tilted his head and said, "Hmm.. when, well. What about now?"
"No, master. You can’t make decisions like that. Please make a fixed ti even if it’s after an hour. We have to pack so many things."
"Hah-_-. Okay then. Let’s leave tonight at 12."
....
After so hours.
A helicopter flew beside a huge explosion in the mountains. For the past forty to fifty minutes, the neighbour countries were going through continuous earthquakes. They reported that there’s an earthquake every 2 minutes and it stays for 10 seconds.
Nurous houses had been turned into concrete piles because of it and more than thousands of people died under it. The scientists were trying to figure out what was causing the unnatural disaster and then, they found out the centre of it.
It was in the Himalayas, right where Viktor’s house was situated.
The helicopter reached the area to find out the reason and what they saw was sothing very peculiar. There were 5 people standing around a volcano. They were astonished to see them doing so ritual around it. They even refused to believe that there was an active volcano in the land of silence.
So one of them started to record it and asked the other person, "Should we call the hybrid agency?"
The other person heard him and replied, "I don’t have a clue what they are trying to achieve but I’m sure they are the reason for this disaster. We have to call the agency."
"Yes, but I need to capture their faces on cara now. Sir, can you take us a little closer to them?"
The pilot answered, "It’s not possible. The wind is too strong below this level. I’m afraid that I have to pull back now."
"Tsk!!"
The scientist zood in on a person’s face around the red pit and beca too stunned to speak. He saw that the man with a long white cape was staring straight at the cara with his orange eyes from a long distance. His face was so handso that he fell in love even though he was also a man.
It was his first ti feeling so attached towards a person that he forgot about his wife for a minute. He then said,
"I want that person."
The scientist who was busy calling the agency heard him and said, "What are you even talking about Sam?"
"N..nothing. Just shut up."
The other person who was sitting beside him snatched the cara and also fell in love after seeing him. "He is like an angel that ca down from heaven..."
...
An hour ago before the earthquake.
19th June 2060, 11:01 PM.
Sowhere in the mountains, Viktor made a solid, big platform to open the gate to the underworld. The sky was crystal clear and there was no moon visible in the sky. The stars were shining so in Viktor’s point of view, it was the perfect night to open the gates.
He then stood in the middle of the huge platform and started to draw a big circle around him. It was the base of the gate.
Viktor then saw Adonis approaching him so he said, "Is everyone ready?"
"Yes, master. They are all busy burning down our house. It will take so monts to turn it into ash. By the way, master. I thought that you would open so portal to leave earth. But why are you drawing a magic circle on this newly made platform?"
"Oh, this? Nobody can open a portal to the underworld realm. There is no mana wave that can actually create a gate. We need to create a gate by using a special magic circle on the ground to open it. And it will take an hour to fully open all the gates within it."
"All the gates? How many gates are there, master?"
"There are about 30 gates, and each of them takes 2 minutes to open. It will create shockwaves so I believe many people will die tonight."
"Shockwaves? Will it cause earthquakes?"
"Yes."
...
The gates that lead a path to the underworld are highly secured. They are nearly impossible to open and only a person with divine Qi can open them. There are 30 gates and all of them are situated one below another one. The gate opener needs to give each gate his verification to open it. Each gate is made of dark iron mixed with barrier magic essence so there is no way a mortal can open it. And it’s a one-way ticket so once a person goes in, they can’t leave without the permission of the god who lives and rules the underworld realm.
Everyti a gate is opened, it creates a huge shockwave. So, when an underworld gate is opened, the area surrounding it becos dust.
To prevent it from happening, Viktor cast a sound barrier around the area to minimise the disaster but still, the vibrations found their way out from below.
The ritual started right after all of them gathered around the magic circle.
"Everyone, cover your ears," Viktor advised and activated the magic circle.
A huge shockwave ca out of the circle and a strange round door was opened. The red magma that was boiling in it slowly drained out and right after two minutes, another door opened.
"This is going to take a while. Adonis, don’t stare at the red magma too much. They aren’t magma. They are barriers created with the purest mana. If you stare at the glowing mana too much, you might turn blind from your soul."
"Huh?" Adonis looked at the others and said, "Hey! Don’t stare at it!"
Viktor chuckled and said, "Guys, let’s just talk about sothing else to pass ti. It might take an hour to open it."
Welis then said, "Sir Adonis, are you not going to say goodbye to your girlfriend Sho?"
Viktor glared at Adonis with his wide silver eyes. He was super curious about his girlfriend.
Adonis then replied, "She’s an old lady who lives with her old sick husband now. She gave birth to three daughters and she’s currently a grandmother now. What kind of idiot would think of her as my girlfriend?"
Viktor still had his eyes fixed on Adonis.
Adonis again said, "Well, I went to see her a few years ago. She said that what happened in the past is best if we keep that in the past as it is. And she’s too old to have two or three partners. So I stopped seeing her."
Viktor then said, "Do you love her?"
Adonis nearly choked on his breath and said, "Master, you too? How can you think of that?"
"I’m just saying-_-."
"No, I do not love her. And I am a knight now. I do not have the ti for any love affairs until you’re getting married." Adonis gave off a devious smile to Viktor.
"Don’t put that on , damn it-_-."
"I’ve searched the entire earth to look for your worthy partner. Even though I had selected 10 for the ultimate match, none of them seed worthy of your wife. Now I’m going to look for your worthy partner in the realm of gods. Then I can think of mine."
Viktor sighed and advised Adonis to give up on such a hopeless thing. He again said, "If marriage is written on my fate, it will co on its own."
Mors then laughed and said, "You know the future. So who’s the unlucky brat?"
"-_-. Shut up, I don’t want to spoil it."
Everyone started to laugh and at that mont, the 27th gate opened. Adonis felt the presence of a helicopter passing by. Inside it, there was a man who was pointing his cara at his face. Since it was the last day on earth, he smiled at the cara and waved.
"Asonis, they are from the hybrid association. Are you sure you want to leave a trace of yours here?"
Adonis smiled and replied to Mors’ question, Don’t worry. They will never give that recording to anyone. They will take it to their graves."
The 28th gate opened by creating a loud sound.
