《Curse of Hades in Another World》Volume 01.Chapter 02 - Life and Death
Advertisement
The Mythical Mortal Realm is the place where all the species live. Each race has its own gods, leaders, and kingdoms. Each race always has its own one nemesis, who they continue to fight forever to maintain the balance of power between their gods. Among the many species is the Azlek Kingdom. It is the kingdom where humans live.
The current ruler of this kingdom is King Feran Winstone. Four Grand Dukes Protect the four major cities that reside for each side of the kingdom. The King rules from Royal Capital, Thiva. Each Grand Duke protects his domain from the enemies of humans.
Among the enemies are the High Elves. They are the nemesis of humans. The hate of high elves has been there since their creation in the world.
After the three sons of Kronos overthrew their father, sending him to tartarous and ending the Titans’ reign. They decided to draw lots to divide the power of the universe. Even though Zeus was the youngest among his brother, his greed for power was far the greatest. He wanted the power of the universe all to himself. To get this power, he devised a plan.
His Eldest Brother Hades wanted to become King of the seas and His Second Elder Brother Poseidon also wanted to become King of the Seas.
He cheated while drawing lots making his Second Elder Brother Poseiden, King of the Seas, and His Eldest Brother, King of the Underworld. He made himself the King of Mount Olympus so That he could rule the other lesser gods.
Poseiden mocked Hades Because he had lost the position of King of seas to him. Hades, enraged by the mockery by his little brother Poseiden left for the underworld without knowing that Zeus had secretly cursed him, making him unable to leave the underworld and trapping him there forever while resurrecting the souls blessed by Zeus. He thought that Poseiden and Zeus conspired together against him. That made him full of hate for his brothers.

This hate was transferred to the high elves when Hades made them. When Zeus created the Humans and Poseidon created the Mermaids.
The high elves were made the nemesis of Humans Because of Zeus’s Curse and mermaids’ enemies because of Poseiden’s betrayal in Hades’s mind.
Somewhere in the Tyras city on the west of the Azlek Kingdom.
“Grand Duke, They are Coming!!!.”
“What!!! Already? I thought………… I thought…… that I could have more time with my son.”
“Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Where am I? Why does my body feel so weak?”
“Grand Duke!!! IT IS TIME FOR US TO LEAVE NOW!!! THEY WILL BE HERE ANY SECOND.”
The Mortal started to feel a deep pain in his mind after that, he felt at peace for a second. But suddenly he started hearing the loud voice of different people near him.
When he tried to move his hands, they felt soft as dumplings and were 4th the size they originally were. He went in thinking.
“Ahhhhhh! What is happening? Why are my hands so soft and feel small?”
When he tried to open his eyes, it was challenging and took a lot of his power and energy.
“Your Grace! The child is opening his eyes.”
The Mortal opens up his eyes and starts to look around.
He first notices that he is now in the body of a newborn baby boy in the arms of a beautiful white woman in her late-twenties in the bed who is smiling at him with love. There is a handsome white-skinned man in his thirties at the side of the bed looking at him and is barely holding his happy expressions.
“These must be my new parents. At last, I have found a family where I will be loved.”
The room he is in is enormous and majestic. The windows are shining like diamonds. The chairs are made of pure gold and silver. 12 Knights surround him with Shining Long Swords and Golden Body Armors, 3 Maids are caring for his mother. Then one of the knights comes closer and starts arguing with his father.

His father, Hector Drakos, is the Grand Duke of The Azlek Kingdom. His Mother is Elpis Drakos from a Baron Family. The Azlek Kingdom is the only Kingdom of Human in the Mythical Mortal Realm. His family has been guarding the west of the Azlek Kingdom for many generations.
His mother, Elpis Drakos, hands him over from her arms into his father’s. His father stands up from the side of the bed with his child in his arms firmly and announces.
“I have named my son Adonis Drakos.”
Adonis Drakos starts crying as he hears these words from his father’s mouth. So, his father returns him into his mother’s arms.
Grand Duke Hector Drakos shows a troubled expression. “Elpis, You will leave with our son. I will try to hold them off.”
The Grand Duchess Elpis Drakos starts to cry with a worried expression. “But…… What about you?????”
“Go Now!!! Before, It’s too late. Adrastos! Take Grand Duchess Elpis safely out of here with the secret path. Make sure she gets out of here safe.”
A robust black knight in his twenties wearing a golden armor with a double-headed dragon symbol comes forward and puts his right arm on his heart, taking a bow before the Grand Duke. “Don’t Worry, Your Grace! By the name of House Isenburg, I will protect the grand duchess with my life.”
Grand Duke Hector shows a relieved and calm face. “Go Now!!! and do not worry about us.”
Elpis Drakos starts running in the secret path with the child in her arms while the brave knight is guarding their escape from the backside.
Tears from Elpis Drakos’s worried face fell on Adonis Drakos, and He starts crying again to distract his mother. Elpis Drakos sees her child crying and tries to calm him down.
Adonis Drakos looks around and sees that the cave is dim-lit by the blue flame torches. The longer they are in the secret path, the louder the sounds from behind them become.
When They reach the end of the secret path, they have entered the garden. That’s When Elpis and the knight hear something from behind.
“Move Fast Soldiers! We will not let the remaining Drakos Family live.”
Adrastos Gladwyne decides to stay loyal To the end by blocking the enemy so that Elpis can run away safely.
“Your Grace! We both have heard that the enemies are not far. I must stay back so that you can live. You must go now and take the heir to a safe place so that our sacrifice may not be in vain.”
Grand Duchess Elpis accepts the Noble Knight’s loyalty and leaves the place quickly. She reaches the garden’s shed and enters.
In The Shed, She hides away the child and puts protection magic on him. When she had used the protection magic on him, they start to hear the sound of people’s feet and screaming. She knows that it is not long until the enemy gathers near the shed to surround them and kills them. Adonis Drakos sees his mother’s determined face and starts crying again so that she will not leave, but she has already decided what to do.
“Forgive Me, Son! But, Your Mother has to leave so that you may live. Always remember that your Mother and Father loved you with all their heart. Goodbye, Adonis, My Child!”

Battle Royale across the Universe: The Species Tournament
Join the Species Tournament! You might lose your sanity, and quite possibly, your life. But hey, great adventure awaits. Who would accept such a deal and risk it all for glory and the unknown? Well, apparently quite a few. In fact, 1.000.000 life forms will face each other in this century’s tournament. Who will win and who’ll be sent packing? Who will gain strength and who’ll leave with trauma? Find out on this week’s episode of the Species Tournament! ................................................................................................... Additional notes (for those who want more details before giving the novel a try): - It’s a battle royale type of setting between humans, pixies, elves, and dwarves organized by a Television Channel from the Demon World. - The MC foolishly decides to join the competition and will struggle to redeem himself throughout the story. The unfolding events will force him and his friends to mature in different ways. - Each round will be held in a different location/planet. The rounds and the locations will become crazier as the plot progresses. - There will be a mystery aspect to the story, since the demons don’t really like spoon feeding contestants on what is going on. - You can expect some magic elements, though contestants won't have much access to them. - The members of each species will have their own unique worlds, back-stories, motivations, and traits. Some will fight for personal reasons while others for the sake of their people. The needs of many vs. the needs of the individual will clash on several occasions. - Finally, there will be twists and turns at every corner, so one should never get too comfortable. Thanks in advance to all who read my story, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on it!
