《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!”

This Strange New Life
Seems like I got a new chance. Better not fuck it up then, since I really want to see what it feels to have a family. Power is pretty lame alone. Best used to build things and protect people. Did a lot of building 'till now, lots of research stuff and all. Now, let's protect the people that I love and that loves me back. An enjoyable life with my loved ones. Whatever the cost. Mufufu~~ What can I do, my siblings are so cute~~ maybe I'll try having children at some point~? --- PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION ^p^ ---- This is an extremely slow reincarnation story, with heavy usage of dialogues and diminutive descriptions. Chapter are posted whenever I feel like it, because I won't burn myself down like I did before. Chapters will often be around 2k words. The first arc, Life in Valince, will be at least 50 chapters deep, and the main character won't get to her 1 year anniversary over the span of this arc. As I said, it's a slow, character interaction, dialogue-heavy story. Lots of feeling, slice-of-life etc, with some dramatic events that shape the rest of the story ^^ AND PLEASE, STOP PESTERING ME ABOUT JAPANESE. this story contain a very limited amount of japanese words, used in context for a reason and that are part of the mystery of the worldAnd the bad guys use german (not because nazi buit because german is badass)And there’s also french. Please be open-minded. I’m not a delusional weeb and this kind of thing, and it would be very appreciated if people could be more polite.If you don't like it, I don't force you to read it, but a lot of people seems to like this novel nonetheless, so maybe you should give it a shot. ---- Lux's here! Yeah I know I should work on ToL and ToF but I had another idea, then another one. So here it is. Story talk about a war vet that reincarnate and can finally know what it is to have a family. I like engineering, creating things and all, so I'll try putting production scene in this. Like all my stories, it's about love, be it with family, friends or lovers. I like my coffee with so much love sugar that half the planet would get diabetes. You're warned. Also, the MC is quite OP, but I keep a progression curb and she still has things to learn, which she will eagerly do. After all, curiosity is one of her main drives, with a thirst for love and utter hate of loss, be it losing a battle or losing someone she loves. Ha, nearly forgot. CONTENT WARNINGS AREN'T FOR SHOW. Sex, of course. I'll try to explore sexuality as a male, a female, and some other PoV that can't be categorised like that, not exactly. Also, beware the yuri/yaoi. I don't limit myself to straight couples. Gore. A lot. Blood everywhere, guts spilling and all. I don't do censure. The Mc cut a wolf in half? you get the details of what is inside it. Traumatising content. I dunno. No NTR, no heartbreaking drama. However, some of you may dislike the way I handle bodies and flesh. Got some feedback about body horror on my previous works, but everyone as a different border separating transhumanism and body horror. Mine is pretty high. How high? Go read The Other Labyrthin to have an example. To put it in simple term, I've no problem at all to describe alien bodies, change in human bodies, interactions between differents strange species etc. Expect a lot of tentacle, bio-incubator, spawning pool à la zerg. Profanity. Well, I think you fucking got it in the very first sentence of this synopsis, ain't right? ---- THIS IS A WIP (work in progress)! Earlier chapters may get retconned or completely changed, structure of the story isn't set in stone, all the usual stuff. ANY HELP IS WELCOMED. Want to throw me your idea? Shoot! Spotted an error in the text? Comment! Seen a plothole bigger than the impact zone of a nuke? I'll gladly hear you out and try to fix the problem (somehow ;-;) --- Cover: John Martin - The Plains of Heaven (c. 1851) ---- Official Editor: TheZouave (starting from ch25 onward) ---- List of thanks: Necrotyr (English) Asviloka (English) Damokles (Review) David Talon (Review) JHA (English) Helbom (English) Slee202 (Common Coherence) NEEDS_MORE_DAKA (First First) Srayan (English) Koooomakimi (Dialogue Flow) Emagstar (English) Apocryphal (Review) ToasterForker (Review) Ellen Taylor (Review) Zak (English) PrimalShadow (English) Elliot Flanders (HUGE THANKS for the re-write of the poem "Tale of Ashen Night" Go check their work, it's good ^^) Lance Wheeler (Huge thanks for the English edit on each chapter ^^) (If you think you should be here because you helped me, feel free to ask, pointing the reason, like the comment you gave that could have helped me ^^)

A Spirit Vein's Guide to Immortality
TL;DR Synopsis: Man dies from falling banana, gets interrogated but answers vaguely, suffers consequences Actual synopsis: Spirit veins. Many consider them to be the pillar on which the world of cultivation is built. These things served as the foundation for the first few realms that would allow humanity to achieve its everlasting dream of immortality. However, in the present age, these pockets of condensed energy only exist to be under the foundations of massive organizations, fostering a new generation of fighters while passively radiating the energy they contain. Nevertheless, spirit veins are still an important element in the world of cultivation, albeit much less so. With that in mind, have you ever considered what it would be like for someone to turn into a spirit vein? No? Well, Arthur never thought about it either. Going through the usual reincarnation schtick (if one could consider it usual), Arthur was eventually brought into a place where a god asked him where he would like to be reborn. Unsurprisingly, Arthur told the god his ideal rebirth. However, soon enough, he would come to realize that he should have been more specific with it. Now being reborn as the smallest spirit vein, or if you could even consider him a spirit vein, Arthur wondered what he could do other than wait for time to consume him…and that’s where the system came in. With it, he would experience multiple stories of hardships, adventure, romance, and action…all underground. Unless…? Do keep in mind that English is not my first language, so I would like to apologize in advance if there are any grammatical errors, typos, miscalculations and so on. In fact, I'd highly appreciate it if you tell me those mistakes. Also, this story focuses quite a lot on the gradual progression of the MC at the beginning, but in the long run, upgrading sprees would probably be more common. Thanks for reading this small note! Word count per chapter: 1.6 - 1.8k words Minimum update rate: 2-3 chapters per week Normal update rate: 1 chapter a day Cover art by Zuharu. Also, join the Discord!
