Hades ventured deeper into the Abyss Hole, each step bringing him closer to more dangerous territory. The air grew heavier, and the Abyss Mana became thicker, but that only excited him more.
Along the way, he encountered several Abyss Beasts, many of them reaching 6-star strength. However, they were no match for him or his Soul Puppet. Each time they attacked, they were easily subdued, their souls devoured by Hades to fuel his power.
But then, as Hades continued deeper into the Abyss Hole, his steps slowed as he sensed something unusual.
His eyes narrowed, scanning the dark landscape, and then he saw them—a group of people locked in a fierce battle. The sight brought a slow, deliberate smirk to his lips as he recognized one of the figures immediately.
Vesperin.
