The staff in the hotel welcomes the groups and solo players in their hotel. The players were treated politely due to their standings as players of the Colosseum. Most people who would be entering the Colosseum had check-in in this hotel. In short, even those with purebred bloodlines had gathered in this place.

Hei Anjing and his team were given a presidential suite with one master bedroom and three guest rooms, an attached kitchen, and a living room. There are bathrooms in each room as well.

The Master’s bedroom was occupied by Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie as usual while the other couples chose a room for themselves and the last room was given to the only single dog, Zane.

Everyone gathered in the living room after dinner. An Yuan was still afraid of Hei Anjing after experiencing his killing intent but calmed down after a few more conversations between them. Because he understood that this devil was not interested in him at all, instead of like his other half, he can only see Player Abyss in his eyes.

The topic of the meeting today is about what to be done when they’ve entered the Colosseum.

Zane asked, “Do we have a plan for the final trial?”

“Do we even have to plan? Tomorrow the Colosseum would most likely become the boss’s wife’s playground,” said Chu Mo. .

Hei Anjing stared at Chu Mo instantly scaring the guy, “You talk as if I’m a child going to play outside. Oh~ you’ve removed the unlucky tag I’ve put on you no wonder you are feeling too good ha?”

“(QoQ), That’s not it, my lord… This servant is just…”

“Well~ it is not like you are wrong but…” Hei Anjing suddenly looked at An Yuan and said, “Xiao An~ tomorrow will definitely be bloody. There would be death everywhere and purebloods, as well as demigods, would be descending to join the fun. Though you are already half god thanks to the full awakening of your ancient bloodline, those purebloods might just treat you as a baby or something and bully you for fun. I suggest you don’t get separated from Xiao Han tomorrow.”

An Yuan was startled by the information about pureblood and demigods descending in the battle royale as he didn’t know the difference between players and those who had already ascended.

“Are the so-called demigods’ players who had successfully ascended? Is there an upper realm in this world?” asked An Yuan.

Chu Mo was the one who answered. Based on the people in this room only he and Ye Xiajie are considered rankers. Rankers who live in the Black zone are all demigods when it comes to strength, especially the top 3 rankers. There are also some weak rankers like the lady Assassin from before. The one whom they’ve met in the Haunted Asylum game.

“Demigods can be considered a level of strength. It is a stage before one fully ascends as a God. In the Abyssal World, there is only one true God, that is the Evil God who rules this world. His name is Yan Lou.” said Chu Mo.

When the name Yan Lou was mentioned Han Ya instinctively glanced at Lou Yan who was helping to rub his wife’s bloated tummy. Hei Anjing had overrated a bit during dinner. This is a habit this couple shares after meals. Ye Xiajie of course noticed Han Ya’s glance but chose to ignore it as always. On the other hand, Hei Anjing gave away a knowing smile making Han Ya avert his eyes and pretended that he hadn’t done a thing.

Chu Mo continues his explanation about the knowledge only a ranker would know.

“Aside from Lord Yan, the other Gods are just fake Gods. They have the strength that could overwhelm Demigods but they have no authority to control the Abyssal World itself. If Lord Yan gave away his authority or someone killed Lord Yan only then that the True God of the Abyssal world would change.

Plus, there is no upper realm. But instead, a floating land called Empyrean Land. This is where those fake gods and demigods live. My boss And I have houses there. High-ranking Abyssal Monsters like Undead General and the Executioner also live there. Those with strength beyond human player levels could enter that place.

By the way, to be able to enter that place the newcomer needs to defeat a pureblood giant. With your newly Awakened bloodlines you should be able to do so easily right now.” said Chu Mo.

Zane asked, “Then… Why are those Demigods and Purebloods joining tomorrow’s battle royale?”

“They treat it as some kind of entertainment. Unlike in Abyssal City where they couldn’t easily put their hands in because of restriction, in hell, they have free reins. After all, players who were thrown into the Punishment Realm were considered failures and those guys can openly treat players as their toys. Even Demigods and Fake Gods get bored okay.” answered Chu Mo.

Thoughts of Chu Mo, ‘Actually Immortal Gods are the same as well~’ while glancing at Hei Anjing.

The bored Immortal God of Destruction raised an eyebrow when he met Chu Mo’s glance, “What?”

“Nothing, Lord Hei…”

Hmph!

Han Ya asked a serious question but he is looking at Ye Xiajie instead of Chu Mo who is explaining things only a ranker could know. Han Ya directed his question to Ye Xiajie because he had guessed his real identity and knew that only he could answer his question.

“Then can a player return to their real world. I do know that most players pulled in the Abyssal realm are dead but… Is there a way to bring someone back to their real world? Lord Abyss, can you please answer this question?” asked Han Ya. His tone is polite yet determined. He is not going to accept no as an answer.

Chu Mo got angry as expected, “You rude, brat!”

“It’s okay, A’Mo. Calm down, the Lords haven’t even spoken a word yet,” said Lan She but his gaze towards Han Ya had changed. Calmness to scrutinizing ones.

An Yuan and Zane noticed the sudden atmosphere in the room, especially An Yuan who felt things might not go well if Han Ya continues to ask this question. Moreover, he knew why Han Ya was asking such a question. It was because he told him that he wanted to return to what reality is used to.

An Yuan pulled on Han Ya’s shirt and shook his head. He is looking at Han Ya worriedly and is asking him to stop talking about those things. In the end, Han Ya just smiled at him and pat his head, and whispered,

“It’s okay, A’Yuan.” said Han Ya.

Ye Xiajie never intended to answer Han Ya’s question but his wife suddenly stared at him with eyes full of mirth. Clearly enjoying the current situation he is in.

Sigh~

“There is only one way to bring one back to his original world. First, the person who wishes to send someone back to his original world must become a True God. Only when one becomes a True God that you have the standing to speak with the other Gods of the other worlds. After becoming a God yourself you can ask a favor from the Ruler God of the world which you want to return the other person into.

In short, become Abyssal World’s True God and talk to the Ruler God of Earth#nth and ask permission to send back the soul that left its world and ask it to bring it back to life. The ruler god of that world would definitely be asked for payment; it could be your lifespan, a skill of yours, a favor, or whatever the latter would ask of you.

But there are so-called laws of the world. For example, Abyssal World could only pull dying souls with extreme regret or desires. This is a requirement to enter the Abyssal World. There is also an exception, when a resident of this world chooses to sacrifice his skills, money, and standing, one could bring over a dying soul from another world.

One of the requirements to bring one back to his real world is to erase the accumulated skills he had gotten in this world as well as all his memories of the Abyssal world. This includes the memories about the person who had brought them back to their original world.” explained Ye Xiajie.

When Han Ya and An Yuan heard Ye Xiajie’s explanation they couldn’t help but be stunned. But the two are surprised by different things. An Yuan was surprised about what Han Ya had given up just to bring his soul over to this world as well as the consequences of losing all of his memories of Han Ya if they indeed wished to pursue this matter of returning to his original world.

On the other hand, Han Ya is shocked about the requirements to be able to bring Han Ya back to his world. In short, he needs to replace his Majesty and become the new True God of this world. What scared him the most was that the person who is explaining all these things happened to be the target of that requirement. He almost died on the spot.

His question is like asking his Majesty when he would abdicate and that he wanted to have his throne instead.

Han Ya suddenly apologized and bowed his head in front of Ye Xiajie.

“I’m sorry. Please forgive my rudeness!” said Han Ya.

His reaction startled everyone in the room except for Hei Anjing enjoying the situation and Ye Xiajie who remained apathetic to everything except his wife.

Chu Mo was stunned and realized that Han Ya had long recognized the real identity of his majesty. Especially that spark of sudden loyalty towards his lord is still there within those eyes, this undead reborn in a human husk had indeed changed but he didn’t completely become human yet not completely a monster at the same time.

“You… Did you… I see… Tsk! If you know why act like you don’t know. How annoying!” said Chu Mo.

Lan She passed a cup of calming tea to his lover, “Drink your tea and calm down.”

“Okay~ sips~,” said Chu Mo.

The atmosphere in the area had turned tense and quiet. Everyone is obviously avoiding speaking any more nonsense in case the fragile relationship in the team would be completely broken.

CLAPPED!

Hei Anjing suddenly clapped his hand catching everyone’s attention. He is still smiling as usual as if nothing weird had happened during the meeting just now.

“Okay! Meeting Adjourned. Let’s all go for a night swimming to relax. By the way, no one is allowed to decline. Hehe~” said Hei Anjing.

His soft giggling made others who wanted to decline the offer of swimming shiver. They knew that this little devil would most likely punish them if they didn’t appear in the pool of the hotel tonight. Because of this, it was very hard to decline his offer as his words were most likely commands instead.

Midnight

At the hotel’s pool.

In the middle of the night when most people of the hotel are asleep except for the staff, Hei Anjing wears casual attire for swimming. Swimming trunks, loose bathrobes, or shirts hanging on their bodies.

Ye Xiajie’s body was a sight to behold. His firm and solid muscles are like sculptures refined to their finesse. His 8 packs abs were inlined connected to his mermaid line leaving sight of perfection. His slightly bronzed skin gave his complexion of healthiness while his sharp features gave a sense of arrogance and aggressiveness. Plus, he always has that apathetic expression on his handsome face giving a feeling of aloofness and hard to approach aura on him.

But unexpectedly this God-like man is now holding a slender white hand in his palms. Ten fingers intertwine with each other as if the space between their fingers were made to fit each other.

While the man who holds his hand is not an ordinary person as well. His slender figure made him a complete fit with the God-like man like Ye Xiajie. His muscles aren’t as apparent as what the former possess but the lines and firmness of his muscles show that he exercises himself well. His skin looks so soft and white as if it was soaked in milk for a very long time. That. This thin waist of his can be held by one arm, he looks even sexier than most ladies who had voluptuous boobs.

His features are top-notch, especially those phoenix-shaped eyes which are usually narrowed as he smiles mischievously. Like a seductive little devil asking to be spanked. Most people could hardly move away from their eyes on this couple.

Hei Anjing was wearing a loose shirt owned by Ye Xiajie. He wasn’t willing to let others see his wife’s body as fully as he could. Plus, the traces he left a few days ago are still there. It looks a bit faded but Ye Xiajie wanted to show off so he allowed his wife to wear his shirt instead.

The rest of the team followed behind them wearing swimming wear to join the couple in the pool.
