I Didn't Choose the Gangsta System, the Gangsta System Chose Me

"Hey, what was that!?"

Joren was startled when there was suddenly an explosion.

'Damn it, I was trying to flirt here!' he thought.

"I guess, you're right. They're here the whole time."

Megaera said before going out with at the same time as Tisiphone.

"You didn't fully believe me."

Joren scratched his head as he jumped and hooked his hands over the broken wall. Bringing himself up, he saw that Allecto have dragged the three-headed humanoid crow out through the giant wall too.

Seeing this made him realize the gap between him and these otherwordly beings.

"Megaera left me here. Seemed that I have to go there myself." Joren looked down and saw that they were somewhere around twenty stories high. The ghouls lingering around, acting as guards, were like ants from his view.

Joren looked up and realized that room was not even a tenth of the whole palace.

"The sky is always dark so I didn't get to see the peak. Just how tall does this palace extend?"

He asked himself but it's not the time for those questions. The top floor is not his destination but the ground floor. Hurriedly, climbed down the stairs…

Meanwhile, gaining enough distance, Allecto threw Nebarius into the sea of dark sands. This area is just vast emptiness, nothing but sands and wind. An unnamed land that is in the borders of Isle of the Blessed, Tartarus, Hades' Palace, and the Judgment Pavillion.

"L-Lady Allecto, please tell me what I did to be the target of your anger?!"

"I'm willing to change and apologize!"

"I will never do it again!"

Nebarius' three heads bang themselves into the sand, asking for forgiveness. His legs were shaking at the thought of what would happen next if this continues.

Instead of replying to his pleading, Allecto just stood there and released some of her power, pressuring the surrounding area, caving the land itself.

"Allecto," a rough voice came revealed itself, unaffected by the pressure that Allecto was releasing.

Without turning her head around, she knew that voice came from Hades.

"If this is just one of your outbursts, I'll have to stop you."

This gave Nebarius a light of hope upon hearing the question. He had done nothing wrong. If he was deemed innocent, Hades would've to stop Allecto. However, if Allecto states a valid reason, his privilege stops there.

In the first place, their lives are in the hands of these Gods. Nebarius was already lucky that he serves a just family. Others who don't have restraints would kill a loyal servant just because they felt like doing so.

"Nebarius have been disrespecting the Lord's guest and I have to fix that mouth of his."

Allecto didn't hide anything. If she does, then she will be falsely accusing Nebarius and that will be her loss.

This made Persephone gasp.

"When did Allecto care about your guest?" she asked. Even though Allecto and Nebarius heard Hades' voice, the man himself was kilometers away as they watched the scene.

"I've never had any guests in the first place, dear." Hades' frown lessened, "Maybe, Allecto do care for us."

After being touched, he transmitted his voice again and asked.

"Nebarius, is that true?"

Nebarius froze. It is true! And just like Allecto, he couldn't lie. If he does, he will never be trusted again. His punishment will become much worse. Again, he didn't have the same privilege as Allecto, a Fury.

"Y-yes… My Lord, I did… secretly spout some insults and threats towards your guest out of spite." Nebarius hit his foreheads onto the ground again, "I have learned my mistake! From now on, I will never speak a word against My Lord's guest, please, forgive me!"

"I forgive you."

Allecto said. However, with the pressure she was still releasing, Nebarius knew that it's time for his punishment.

The number one reason why he didn't want to offend his masters was respect. The second? He didn't want to become their enemy and be subjected to their 'punishment'

If any of the masters of the palace have been sinned against, they will have to show the perpetrator their place again.

Thus, a battle will commence. But none in the palace calls it a battle because for them, going against the Gods will never become a battle. For the servants, it's called suicide.

Hades allows this to remind the servants or any of the underworld dwellers of their place. With the freedom Hades was giving them, they would eventually take it for granted and act rudely towards their masters.

That's where the line is drawn.

Meanwhile, for the masters, this is called a reminder. Showing no mercy is a must. This made Hades sigh since he had planted deep trust in Nebarius.

Although it's better if Allecto doesn't kill Nebarius, it's her choice, not anyone else. Unfortunately for Nebarius, Allecto is the worst master to be angered, worse than Hades, for she is the Fury of Anger.

"If you survive for ten whole minutes, that is." Allecto continued her words, making Nebarius feel cold feet.

Obviously, she will show no mercy.

"What happened?" Megaera and Allecto have arrived much earlier but wasn't able to hear the whole story…

Meanwhile, Joren got lost inside the palace.

"Ahh! How can I remember which way is which with this giant palace!?"

His attendance was unneeded but he really want to see what's going on.

"Wait…"

Joren then arrived at a familiar hallway and turned around.

Back to the scene, Hades has said the rules for fairness.

"From here on out, Nebarius can use the full extent of his power even if he has the intention to harm Allecto and he will be pardoned."

If Allecto is actually harmed in this battle then it would be her fault. Not only that but she will stain the Hades Family's image.

After those words left Hades, Allecto have begun to release the power of a Fury.

"It's been so long… since I've actually released this anger…"

Steam came out of Allecto's mouth as a war hammer manifested itself into her hands. This war hammer was anything short but terrifying. The bluish-glowing weapon intimidates Nebarius upon revelation.

Nebarius have no choice but to go all-out and hope to survive the ten minutes out of Allecto's mercy.

From a humanoid to a beast-like creature, Nebarius has shown his truest form. Sharp teeth along with its long beaks. Impenetrable claws grow out of his feet. Three pairs of wings flapped as their size increased.

The monster that is the general of the ghouls took form. Like the sky itself, Nebarius stretched by a length of more than just a kilometer. His three pairs of wings span wider than his tail.

The wind from each of his wings' movements causes tornadoes and sandstorms as its shockwave, traveling to reach other planes within the UnderWorld.

Meanwhile, Allecto stood still with the war hammer in her hand. She didn't think much of the transformation. If Nebarius didn't transform, he will die while shaming the Fury. Going all-out at the beginning shows how much he respects Allecto's power.

However, that was not enough to quench Allecto's rage. At first, she was just standing still and in the blink of an eye, she was gone, leaving behind a crater and an explosion.

Nebarius' caws sounded like roaring thunders with his size. He had noticed that Allecto have jumped to meet him in the sky.

He knew ahead of time that this would be Allecto's first move. But what could he have done at that moment? Nothing but to prepare himself.

Swoosh*

With the large difference in size, Allecto's war hammer didn't strike the beast but instead, pierced through him like he was tofu. He had already put up his defense but it ended futile.

It was as if Nebarius was shot through his stomach. Only that the bullet is Allecto with her war hammer. Reaching the endpoint of her jump, Allecto raised her weapon and brings it down at the same time as her fall.

This time, it did not pierce Nebarius, instead, the impact was spread out as if he was taken a beating.

Caw—!*

Nebarius could only regret his actions. He should've been more careful.

He was already weakened enough that he had to make an effort just to fly and not a minute have even passed!

This was already his death sentence when he angered the Fury of Anger, Allecto. Fearing that the Fury was standing on his back, looking down on him like he's a sitting, Nebarius morphed into a much smaller version of his original form.

He could only hope to lessen the impact of each Allecto's strike.

The bird that covered the sky has disappeared and Nebarius fully utilizes his advantage of flight. That was the only fortunate thing here. If Tisiphone had been his opponent, this would be a mockery for the Fury of Revenge.

Allecto have landed onto the ground, unharmed while her opponent was already desperate on guarding.

Watching this, Hades feel like Nebarius was a waste.
