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

Chapter 88 - [Bonus ] State Of Panic



"My Lord… Cerberus died." Nebarius lowered his heads in front of the throne. There was a deafening silence that followed afterward.

"Cerberus… isn't that dog immortal?"

Tisiphone muttered while the rest were in total shock. As she said, Cerberus is supposed to be immortal, so how did he die?

"Before we brought him into the Recovery Room, he had passed away." Nebarius continued his report.

"Who did this to him?" fumes came out of Hades' nostrils. For him to do nothing while his guardian dog died would be inconceivable. However, he cannot leave the palace. He just can't.

"Reports say it was a scary human with a gun-like weapon. HIT is already documenting what happened. I'm sure they've taken the human's image."

'What a coincidence. This should've made Joren get away.' Nebarius thought. No one there, absolutely none linked Cerberus' defeat to Joren's escape, 'The Lord's attention is also shifted to this mysterious human. What good luck.'

Although he knew that Joren punched a hole through the wall surrounding the palace, he knew how strong the Cerberus was. Cerberus is his senior. Before he was even born, the legendary three-headed dog was already gatekeeper of the UnderWorld.

"This man must be that Joren's backing!" Hades slapped the armrest of the throne. He was so complacent that Joren would come back to his palm. However, there was no news about him while his trusty guard dog disappeared.

This is one of Hades' worst days. Not only were his balls kicked, but he also had to stay on the ground, squirming in pain while being invisible, or the Furies might see that a lesser undead is just 'bullying' him. He would rather take his own life than do that.

Not only that, but he was cockblocked and, quite possibly, cucked!

It was the worst feeling ever that Hades staying calm is a surprise. That's his demeanor as a senior god. However, this doesn't mean that he will easily forget about this. No! He will never forget about this.

While everyone was waiting for Hades' words, the news came in.

Ding*

There was a notification from Critter as the HIT team posted the latest news. Tisiphone was the first to receive it before the physical newspapers even arrived.

"Here, it's the human that fought off Cerberus!" she said, and when she clicked on the image, she zoomed in and…

"..."

"What, give it to me!?" Hades had no patience, so he shouted.

Megaera snatched the phone from Tisiphone to give it to Hades. But she couldn't help but take a peek and…

"..."

"Hey, what's the holdup? The Lord wants to see it!" Allecto shouted and took it from Megaera and…

"..."

"What's the matter with you three!?" Hades reached his limits and stood up to take it from Allecto…

"..."

Persephone peeked since she couldn't possibly snatch the phone from Hades and…

"..."

"..."

All their jaws dropped onto the ground.

"Who is this person?! Who is this person!?" Hades panicked as he felt the world turning around. Does reality even exist? Is he dreaming?

"Lord, Lord, calm down!" Megaera shouted before noticing Allecto on the ground. She looked like she was in pain as she held her chest.

"Miss Allecto!" Nebarius didn't know why everyone was in a state of panic, so he was more concerned about Allecto's state. He went, and Allecto grabbed his clothes.

"I-I think I'm going to die…!"

"W-what!?"

"T-tell him… I love him so much!"

"Eh!? Who!?"

"Also, print the pictures and post them all in my room! Do it now, or I'm going to kill you for sure this time!" Allecto threatened before being kicked my Megaera, which sent her flying.

Swoosh- Bam*

"Miss Megaera!?"

"Stop acting so lovestruck, you bitch!" Megaera put a middle finger up.

"W-what's happening!?" three of Nebarius' heads didn't know where to look. Hades and Persephone were arguing about something. He didn't even know about where it originated.

"What's your problem!?" Allecto stood up as she wiped the blood from her nose, but oddly, she was widely smiling, "Do you want a fight, sis!?"

"Stop acting hurt. That wouldn't even scratch you! How come you're bleeding!?"

A hand then dropped on Nebarius' shoulder, startling him. All of his heads turned and saw Tisiphone. She showed the picture and said-

"Go to where HIT is located and tell them they must've misunderstood or missed something. There's no way this lesser undead is the one who killed Cerberus." she pointed.

Nebarius' eyes widened so much, just a little bit more, and his eyeballs would've fallen off.

They thought Joren was cute. He was like an amoeba trying his hardest. They couldn't accept this news, yet, they couldn't deny it either. Would HIT risk telling a forged story and sending it to Hades?

That's the same as sending a request to die.

It was beyond the realm of possibility even for Gods like them. Who knew that little amoeba would kill their dog? They couldn't imagine it because it was impossible!

Hades couldn't kill Joren because there must be some reasons why. Furthermore, he only used less than a fraction of his strength. Joren slipping through him is still acceptable.

Cerberus is an immortal beast. Even Hercules couldn't kill Cerberus even if he wanted to.

This is akin to an amoeba carrying a gun and shooting a dog with it. Some weapons could kill the Cerberus, but who is Joren for handling that kind of weapon!?

It was just so inconceivable that they were thrown into a panic.

"Right away!"

Nebarius then flew away and went to the HIT Headquarters.

"What if that lesser undead was hiding his real power?" Tisiphone asked, but Hades shook his head.

"We should've sensed it. With his power, there's no way that he could kill Cerberus. That news should be inaccurate. We shouldn't panic." Hades sat down and calmed himself. He told himself that there's no way either the image or the story is actual.

However, a moment later, Nebarius came back bearing the real news.

"My Lord, it's true! I asked other people, and they said the same thing!"

There was panic again, but Hades stopped them with a slap of his hand onto the armrest.

"This wouldn't do! Tisiphone!"

"Yes, My Lord?" Tisiphone half-kneeled in front of Hades.

"I permit you to go out and avenge Cerberus!" Hades ordered.

Tisiphone, the Goddess of Vengeance, had her eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Wait, I want to avenge Cerberus too!"

"No, me!"

Megaera and Allecto pulled each other's hands.

"As for you two, to the dungeon, until my anger is gone!" Hades shouted, stunning the two of them.

"What did we do, Lord!?" Allecto asked.

"It's for falling in love with a mortal! Do you know your standing!?"

Allecto's eyes shifted away, "I-I don't know what you're talking about…" before she was pushed aside by Megaera.

"And, why am I being punished for the same crime as this slut!?"

"No more excuses! Don't try to fool me!" Hades' voice roared, and Nebarius immediately took the two sisters away.

"S-sorry, Lady Megaera, Lady Allecto. Let the Lord's anger pass for now!"

"It's fine, but I want the posters to be posted in my cell too, understood!?"

"Yes!"

Megaera and Allecto were placed onto the same cell, bringing them into the dungeon. This incited a complaint from Megaera.

"Bring me to another cell! There are hundreds of other rooms to choose from. Why am I stuck with this lovestruck bitch!?"

"Hahaha, there's nothing you could do, sis!"

"...!!! This is a mistake!"

Nebarius was kneeling again in apology, but he couldn't go against Hades' words. On the other hand, he also thinks that Hades was spot on.

For Allecto to be laughing even though Megaera is berating her, Hades's suspicion grew. On the other hand, Megaera was giving too much reactions even though she's usually the most mature of them all.

What emotion could get her work up like that? Well, the answer is easy.

Therefore, what Hades said is not ungrounded.

"Damnit, Tisiphone!" Megaera bitterly clenched her face. Now, her attention was taken by Tisiphone, who wasn't even there or had nothing to do with the situation of why they were locked away.

"I bet Tisiphone is going to come back here pregnant." Allecto joked.

"Allecto!!"

Allecto then laughed before going to Megaera, "Alright, sorry, sorry. There's no way Joren wouldn't like you too, right? Don't be so jealous now."

"Grr!!"

Allecto patted Megaera's head and cheeks as if she were an angry puppy. Although she looked like she was more pissed off now, Megaera didn't say anything and calmed down.

'These Ladies are much simpler to understand….' Nebarius internally sighed. He found them not guilty of making the Lord angry.

"Nebarius, where's the poster? I'll teach my sister to be honest!"

"What are you on about, cheeky brat!?" Megaera roared. She felt so humiliated to be treated like a child by her sister who's literally been fooled by hundreds of men online.

"R-right away!"

Nebarius didn't want to be there any longer and flew away in haste.
