"No, don't do this, you can reconsider right? We can be partners just like you had hoped, don't do what you'll regret...."
Adam's body in the monster realm places his right hand on his chest as the red diamond shaped crystal emerged from him, the crystal which was about two centimeters in length
had a somewhat fragile feeling as it easily shattered into tiny particles upon applied force.
"No stop!.....curse you Adam Baxter! you'll join me soon enough, I'll be waiting, you hear that. I'll be waiting!!"
Meanwhile Lust who had initially planned to implore Adam to reconsider his resolutions couldn't help but become heated with ire as a golden yellow hued light erupted from his chest , seeing this he instantly cursed as his body ignited in flames and his ashes and smoke coagulated as it flew away from the prison
The demonic pet monsters of the four guardians with the four guardians themselves not far behind all looked up as the black vapor which reverberated the wailing sound of a higher spirit well known in SHEOL headed towards a destination they were well familiar with.
The wailing sound could be heard by the remaining deadly spirits situated at various locations in the spirit realm and each could feel the bond they once had with a fellow comrade, brother and companion become severed like a thread cut into two.
The curvaceous silhouette of a busty woman could be seen in a dim lighted room as she sat down on a chair in close proximity to the window and places a mug steadily with trembling hands on the table near her.
A solitary tear could be seen trailing down her eyes as it was reflected by the flash of lightning which came before the deep rumbling sound of thunder peals in the dark sky while the wailing sound of Lust could be heard heading towards TARTARUS , the underworld.
Tartarus is the infernal region of the spirit realm located far beneath SHEOL. It is a place where gods, higher spirits, Titans and other higher beings go to once quietus knocks on their doorsteps.
If it were to be a god, that won't be surprising but a higher spirit been sent to Tartarus was something no one would have ever expected. Gods finding themselves in the underworld was a common occurrence seeing as how war between gods had begun since the dawn of time.
The souls of mortals are judged in SHEOL when they die before going to the kingdom of heaven or GEHENNA depending on their fates. Souls that finds themselves in GEHENNA ends up being a life essence used for the strengthening of the demon army.
Souls that finds themselves in one of the seven kingdoms of heaven are taken to a place called Elysium which is described as a land of absolute happiness where they'll live the rest of their lives exalting the gods that resides in the heavens
Immortal beings that resided with the Titans in a sky island called 'THE ISLE OF THE BLESSED' which was located not to far from the humanoid kingdom were granted safe passage into Elysium when faced with quietus.
The rest of the remaining deadly spirits knew only one being could have caused the demise of Lust and right now would have been a bad time to question his decision and who else would it be than Anubis.
They knew it would be better to wait for the next day to seek an audience with him because right now Anubis would surely be having an air of melancholy surrounding him, everyone knew how Anubis loved Lust like a son he never had although Anubis would always complain about how irritating Lust had always been, still you could feel the love present in the words he uttered every time he grumbled.
The remaining deadly spirits were still in shock by what Anubis had done but Pride knew pretty well that Anubis had yet to return from where he went, so it could only mean one thing, the culprit was still in 'the treatment' chambers.
He darted towards 'the treatment' room as he commanded the guardians to follow. The guardians (namely the Sphinx, the Manticore, the Narasimha and the Lamassu) were four beast like creatures who had two demonic pets each by their side.

"Do you know the consequences of what you have just done, there will be severe repercussions," Osiris warned as he glanced down at Adam.
"Do you really think I care about that? I never said I wanted to become a hero in the first place and I definitely do not wish to become one now,"
"What do you mean? Do you not have the desire to save those in need of help? Surely if you were to take on the quest, you would have unimaginable powers."
"True! But power isn't everything. Besides if the gods truly want to put an end to this futile game, why send just one person when you can simply end the war with a snap of your fingers. I abide to only one rule, to let my actions speak for themselves. I have but one dream and that's what I'm going to achieve, I care not of this game I'm meant to partake in."
"Nonsense!, How do you hope to achieve your dreams without power. A man without power is nothing!"
"Wrong! A man without the belief in infinite power is nothing just as how a God without the believe of his worshipers is nothing. Why aim for just power when you could aim to be the most dreaded being the five realms had ever laid eyes upon. I will rise to the top but I'm doing it my way and anyone who dares try to stop me will definitely face my wrath".
"If that is what you want then so be it, get out of here now, the guardians are on their way and you should definitely not make eye contact with the one leading them here now. Your current self will definitely be crushed to a pulp,"
Osiris warned as he sensed Pride's mana energy approaching towards them at a supersonic speed while oozing a lethal aura capable of decapitating a low leveled being like Adam.
