The Supreme Sovereign System - Chapter 383 Betray-part two-
“From the cursed land” Said Alfonso.
“I guess that’s a proper name… however, you know why I said this?” Said Carmine.
“Because… you can’t receive the blessing of the gods?” Said Alfonso without understanding Carmine’s question.
“That’s one of the reasons, yes, however, there is another reason, the most important reason, why our land, or to be more specific, we are cursed” Said Carmine.
Carmine looked at the horizon and said with a sad expression.
“We are doom to disappear in the next two generations” Said Carmine.
“What… why?” Asked Alfonso surprised.
“Because… we don’t give birth to men” Said Carmine.
“Yeah, I heard about that” Said Alfonso.
“What!? That you are a top-secret… how…” Asked Carmine.
“I meet a few people from that place” Said Alfonso.
“You… you meet… that’s impossible! We can’t leave our land since the curse!” Said Carmine.
“You are right about that” Said Alfonso.
“Then how… wait… you are saying…!”
“Yes, I meet the ones who escaped almost a year ago, they call themselves Amazons now” Said Alfonso.
“Amazons…” Murmured Carmine.
Alfonso didn’t know how Carmine going to react, after all, they were, in fact, traitors, in some way.
However, Carmine’s answer surprised Alfonso.
“Good, they are alive, good”
“Aren’t you mad?”
Carmine sighed.
“It’s was a respectful choice, although I felt a bit betrayed, they are still my sisters” Said Carmine.
“I understand the feeling of wanting to protect your family” Said Alfonso.
“You have a family?”
Alfonso saw the faces of his sister and his parents.
And after that… he saw the faces of Artemis, Demeter, Dionysius….
The faces of his loved ones waiting for him in Wasteland Valley.
“I used to have a small family… but now, I have a bigger one”
After saying this, Alfonso realizes that he has said something that could lead to a misunderstanding.
“Are you a parent!?” Said Carmine with surprise.
“No… that’s not what I mean… it’s complicated” Said Alfonso with a bitter smile.
“I… I see…” Said Carmine.
The two of them stood in silence for some seconds.
“Ahem… it seems that we go a little bit out of the point” Said Carmine.
“Ye…yeah…” Said Alfonso.
“So… oh yeah, well, this makes things easier them, my sister was the successor of the first shaman” Said Carmine.
“We both came to hell due to the advice of the right hand of my sister”
“Right hand?”
“Beatrice…”
Alfonso looked at the face of Carmine and could, more or less, understand what happened.
“She had a… special power… she could see the future”
“Thinking about this, we should have questioned this further… but she was a close friend of our mother, so…” Said Carmine.
“I see…” Said Alfonso.
Carmine sighed.
“She told us that we needed to get a certain object from hell, an object so powerful that could even suppress the curse of the gods” Said Carmine.
“What object could be so powerful?” Asked Alfonso.
Carmine smiled bitterly.
“Is that pendulum” Said Carmine.
“…” Alfonso was speechless.
“We came here in order to get that pendulum… we spend thousands of years searching for it… haha… who knew that I will find it just by searching for food” Said Carmine.
After saying Carmine trembled a little.
“However…”
Her rage soar.
“However! That frisking pendulum was useless!” Shouted in rage Carmine.
“That wasn’t some awesome object! It was something that helped increase the death soul aura! For us, who use life aura, is poison! Beatrice! That bitch, lie to us so she could get the throne!”
PUM!
She slammed the boat making it shake a little.
“We wanted to find a way out of hell, however, someone intercepts us”
“Amadeus?” Asked Alfonso.
“Yeah…”
“But, how did he know that you had the boat and the pendulum?”
“I don’t know, however, someone knew, and he or she tip Amadeus about our plans”
“Maybe someone close to you?” Asked Alfonso.
“Ever since we came to hell it just has been my sister and me” Said Carmine.
“You are powerful, I am sure that even stronger than Amadeus, how did he capture you?” Asked Alfonso.
“He had some heavy backup” Said Carmine.
“Monarchs of the upper levels?” Asked Alfonso.
“Not exactly, monarchs of the upper levels don’t meddle in the business of the lower levels… however… their minions can”
“Which circle?” Asked Alfonso.
“Six”
Alfonso felt a shiver on his back.
If the monarch of the third circle was already powerful enough… how about the monarch of the upper circles?
“My sister had a confrontation with the monarch of the sixth circle about 500 years ago” Said Carmine.
“She fought with that!?” Asked Alfonso.
“You don’t know how people call my sister in the upper levels?” Asked Carmine with a proud expression.
“How?”
“Queen of Darkness”
“What an imposing… and somehow, embarrassing name” Said Alfonso.
“You know, my sister always tells me the same, why? It sounds super cool!” Said Carmine.
“…”
“A-Anyway, who was the one who captured you?” Asked Alfonso.
“Leirich” Said Carmine.
“Who is he?” Asked Alfonso.
“You are better not knowing about him” Said Carmine.
“However”
She walked closer to Alfonso, and, with a serious face, she said.
“Never, in your life, go to the sixth circle, never!” Said Carmine.
“Why? What is going on in the sixth circle?” Asked Alfonso.
“A new king is about to be born” Said Camine.
“A new king…”
“If you ever go back to your world… be sure to take measures, the birth of a new king will change not only the underworld but also the living world” Said Carmine.
“What do you mean by that?” Asked Alfonso.
Carmine looked up.
“Someone above wants to shake the foundations of this world”
“and your world”
…………………………………..
A man with red eyes and a black outfit was looking at a small pond.
Inside that pond, two pictures could be seeing.
One, of a man with long black hair.
And the other one…
Was of Alfonso!
“I found them” Murmured the man.
In a dark room, a huge person who had two pieces of chess in his/her hand, opened her big crimson eyes.
It put the two pieces alongside the chessboard.
The figure smiled.
