She had one daughter that she loved the most, Kore, she was her beloved one and they were very close to each other. One day, Hades saw Kore walking in a pastureland and he kidnap her and bring her to the underworld. Demeter look for her for nine days without eating or sleeping until she hear from Triptolemo that Hades had kidnap her, she became furious and kill the land and threat Zeus of not lifting the curse until Kore, at this point she had another name already, the queen of the deadland, Persephone; In the end, she and Hades make a deal, 5 months she will stay with Demeter, 5 months in the underworld with Hades and she will have 2 months for her. This myth was a famous one in all the Greek culture, it explains the stations, when Persephone is with Demeter, she is happy, and the ground is fertile and everything can grow, in other words, its summer, however, when Persephone is in the underworld, Demeter is sad and everything dies, in other words, is winter. For these facts, there is a lot of discussion between historians about Demeter's actual role even nowadays, everyone agrees that Demeter is the goddess of agriculture, however, some people affirm that she is also the goddess of live, she and Hades are basically opposites, this a known fact, however, how far this opposites sides actually were was in discussion.

After the description of the system, Alfonso pondered a lot, the abilities that Demeter had were exceptional, however, there was a limit of how many times she could use it but what surprise him the most was the last ability…. Specially the post effects of using it.
"If I remember correctly, Persephone is in the underworld with Hades.... Don't tell me that, if she use that ability I will have to bring her to the underworld...…. Fuck…" Thought Alfonso.
If this was really true, then he will never ever let Demeter use this ability!
"Demeter.. I have a question…. Why are in you in your spring form? We are in winter" Asked Alfonso.
"Well~ I also don't know~ All I know is that there are 3 months, 3 weeks and 6 days before I changed to my summer form~ , and I quite like this form~ " Say Demeter with her usual candid smile.
"If I am not be rude…. Can I ask you… what was your original form?" Asked Alfonso.
"Alfonso!" Suddenly shout Artemisa.
Alfonso was surprised; however, he knew that he had asked something he shouldn't have. Demeter only look at his apology face and make a smile then, she became near Alfonso and hugged his head.
"My~ My~ Don't make that kind of face little Al, is not your fault~ , Actually , I don't really remember myself, is been too long~ , however, I only know that if I want to return to my original form, I must reunited with my beloved Kore, sight~ , however , that big bad old man wont let her go" Say Demeter with an unusual bitter smile.
Just when Alfonso was about to say something, a pop appear inside his head, it was the system.
[Sub-mission: Mother and Daughter
Description: Demeter is a candid soul, however, she had a huge scar in her heart, as a partner of the gods, you can sit still and do nothing! Travel to the underworld and rescue Persephone but remember! The underworld is a dangerous place, only chosen people have been able to go and return, for this mission you will need at least, 5 gods at the hero level to assist you.
Reward : 200,000 Drachmas plus Demeter's ultimate form
Remark : there is no time limit for this mission]
The system told Alfonso his next sub mission, at first he almost wet his pants, he had to actually fo to the underworld! However, after reading the remark, his soul came back to his body.
"Well, I will a loooooooong way before I could even think about doing that mission…. However, 200,000 Drachmas.... Jesus! " Though Alfonso
So many Drachmas in a sub-mission, if he make a rapid conjecture, the harder the mission the reward would be better…. Then….. a mission that is equal to 200,000 Drachmas…
"Isn't that suicide?" Though Alfonso while making a bitter smile

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.
