To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 258: Independent Scheming



Chapter 258: Independent Scheming

Seven Graceful Virtues born after the Seven Deadly Sins. 

Their birth declares a new era in Abyssal Terra. Where the origin of Abyssal Hunter is to aim for the Depth of the Abyss, the Seven Graceful Virtues aim for the top of the Abyss. 

Unfortunately, it is hard for them to reach their goal. Because to do so, they need to break through the old-born society. 

The old-born society being govern by the so called Light Saint and their children, the sworn enemies of Virtues, Seven Deadly Sins. 

However, with the power of the Dark-side Father, Soul Saint, they could aim for the Depth of Abyss faster and easier than the old-born society.

Floor ? / 

??th Chamber /

"With the Omniscient, Dark-side Father, Soul Saint's guidance, we will reach heaven and dethroned God from His arrogant throne!"

Inside an all-white room, which was as wide as a football field, a group of creatures dressed in black, numbered in the tens, crouched in the center of the room.

The room was extravagant, with a floor that was as glazed as glass and surrounded by five giant pillars.

Apart from its beauty, the room was also very strange. The beautiful room had no roof. Yes, the top of the room was the same floor that people were on.

The room was designed like a two-way mirror.

However, such a beautiful room was filled with vile creatures that looked like they came straight out of hell.

The creatures kneel down with their heads lowered. Giving the highest respect to the Preacher.

The Preacher raised his hands high up, giving the impression of the greatness of the person he worshiped.

By doing so, the Preacher managed to raise the morale of his soldiers. They will fight to the death to face any enemy that enters their territory.

Finished with his preaching, the Preacher walks out of the Chamber, leaving the soldiers of darkness in the Chamber. 

"Is it the 92nd?"

The preacher was greeted by a young man with dark white wings.

"Gil boy, I thought you hate my preach."

Virtue of Temperance, Gilbert the Fallen Angel. 

The Third Strongest Virtue after Cinderella and Blade. 

Sadly, Cinderella and Blade were killed in the War with Eria. So that left Gilbert to be the only Virtue who could fight in the frontline. 

"Yeah, I do really hate your preach, Lucius old man."

In front of the Fallen Angel is the Virtue of Mercy, Lucius the Euphonical Preacher. 

An old man in a robe with a long white beard. One with the fit impression of the Great Witch in the Rings series.

Unlike the Fighter role, Lucius was not the type to approach the enemy, unless being ordered by the Father.

"Then, mind if I ask, what is your purpose to be here? Is it Father's order?"

Even though they were on the same side, same house, Gilbert's hate was real towards Lucius. That was why he will not meet the vile-mouth man, except he got ordered by their Father. 

"The Shadow of Demon King has made his move to the Fourth Floor."

Usually, when the news was announced to the other members, they would tremble and give off a hint of fear.

However, for the Preacher old man, he chuckled and stroking his beard instead.

"Ho ho ho, it took quite sometimes for him to make the move."

That was indeed true. 

It had been a while since the war on Floor 3 ended, and the war declaration between the Soul Saint and Shadow of Demon King was declared.

"Although, it still feel like yesterday since the deaths of our two great men, Purity and Humility."

Of all the remaining Virtue, Lucius holds the deepest grudge over the deaths of two of their most important family members. 

"Tell me, Gil boy, considering you have tested the strength of the Shadow of Demon King, are all our preparations enough to stop it?"

When Gilbert escorted Soul Saint to meet with the Shadow of Demon King, he gave a farewells souvenir enough to level a city. 

Unfortunately  

"I don't know."

That was a three months' worth of Gilbert's effort, and he unleashed it within one seconds. 

However, even with such a huge threat, the Shadow of Demon King stands firm. His gaze assumed that Gilbert was carrying children's toys.

Gilbert hated that. Of all the enemies he fought, the Shadow of Demon King was the most arrogant of all of them. 

He thought he is the strongest of all. 

"That he think a mere young man like you is no big deal for him."

"Stop entering my head."

The order given to Gilbert was to inform Lucius of the threat they were about to face. He had carried out the order, and therefore, he no longer had any business with the old man.

"Wait, young man! Could you please go to the 96th Chamber? I sense that Ursula girl is having a hard time dealing with the Sloth Sin."

"Go calm them down yourself."

"But I need to go to the next chamber. They were about to go crazy if I'm not fast. You know that it's not good to let our people suffer, right?"

"Tch."

It was also what made Gilbert hate the old man. The old man always had a sentence he could use to command others.

The Chambers was not the only two-way mirror design room. The world of Floor ? is also two-way mirror space. 

Literally the top and ground of the Floor, or the ground to the top, top to ground, the gr are the same. 

White land with earth pillars connected on two sides of the horizontal end. The distance from end to end horizontal side is 50 meters.

[Endless Labyrinth Terra]

Soul Saint was the one who named the Floor. It is based on the nature of the floor, which seems endless and misleading.

The Chambers are five corners room. The walls stick to the two-way mirrored ground of the Floor. Has one two-way mirror giant door.

96th Chamber / 

"WHAT THE FK ARE YOU DOING?!"

The door of the 96th Chamber was already opened when Gilbert came. 

He heard a woman's voice screaming loudly in the front door.

The voice came from top of the Chamber. The top of the ground where Gilbert's stand. 

"Do you know how many people can be fed with all those supplies, you fking shit!? It took me a month to gather all that! Do you hear me motherf***er!?"

On the top of the Chamber, a naked woman is cursing a brown-skinned man. It seemed the brown-skinned man had just done something that shouldn't be done.

The brown man who was actually from the enemy of the house of Virtue. 

"Here I thought he is a Sloth."

Yet, the brown man was standing and just eat the whole food supply of 96th Chamber.

Floor 4 / 

Sector 3 / World Wall 

World Wall Harbor / Registry Office 

"Next!"

He advanced to the record table.

"Let me see your ID. Hm, hmm, Troy, is it? What is your flight purpose?" 

"Personal business on Saint Arcane Academy."

"Alright... Wait, are you infected?"

"No."

"Then that's quite a skinny body for a big man. Alright, you pass. Next!"

The ship bound for the Upper Floor is about to depart. The ship carrying the former most important person in Eria. 

"Hey, watch your step!"

With no one knowing that fact. 

"Woah, what's up?! You wanna go?!"

Because the man's appearance is so different and he was using a robe to hide his face.

[The flight to the 3rd Floor is about to depart. Please, for the passengers to board the ship.]

"Yeah, go away! You freaking creepy strange guy!"

Only a few people in Eria knew about Troy's departure. 

Even so, they didn't want to interfere, because Troy was no longer attached to Eria. So he was free to do whatever he wanted as a god-powered Hunter.
