Finally, after having pushed a staggering weight of 17 tons to the edge. Rey grabbed all of his belongings and threw them all back on the boat.
'I'm getting Deja Vu...
No, this is not the time to think about anything!'
Rey called out the black slime back and asked it to help him push off the boat after getting on it.
"HEY! KICK THIS BOAT OUT OF THE AIRPLANE!"
The black slime gladly accepted it and materialized a whole foot and leg, ready to kick Rey off the plane.
"Here I come!"
A strong gust of wind permeated along with the loud cries of a young adult male as he falls off the airplane.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Upon having kicked off the loud-mouthed Rey, the black slime had also jumped off board the airplane.
Before having gone farther away from the plane, the black slime shot out a part of its body like a web, grabbing hold of the lever to close the compartment.
The slime pulled up the lever with ease.
Having successfully pulled and closed the belly of the plane, it once again shoots out a tiny piece of its body towards the spherical hole before fully retracting back its redeemable parts of its body.
*GUST*
*BLOW*
*DROP*
"HEY! I'M AFRAID OF DYING!"
Rey shouted, facing the fastest-falling boat.
The black slime caught up to Rey and hovered above its right shoulder.
"Don't talk nonsense. This won't kill you. Probably."
"WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY PROBABLY?!!"
The boat is at 8-9000 in altitude, and as for the two of them, they're currently at 11-12000.
Due to the gaining weight of the boat, it's dropping faster and faster in each second, with no hope of them catching up to the said boat.
"CAN'T YOU JUST USE YOUR POWERS TO STOP OR REWIND TIME OR SOMETHING?!"
"I've already depleted my Divinity. The transformation I'm doing doesn't cost me any Divinity because it's my body's unique physique."
*FALLING*
With all of Rey's limbs fully spread out in the air, with his flesh flowing upwards due to the wind pressure coming from the fall, he had a brilliant idea after looking at his flowing clothes.
"AHA! I CAN USE THIS TO SLOW DOWN THE FALLING PROCESS!"
*TAKES OFF*
Rey stripped off his black trench coat, tightly holding on to the sleeve loops and wedges, trying to shape it into a parachute.
*GRAB*
*TIGHTENED GRIP*
*INFLATE*
As soon as he made the makeshift parachute using his trench coat, fortunately, it succeeded and is now acting as a barricade, increasing his wind resistance, which lowers the terminal velocity.
"I think it's still too early for you to have done that, Rey."
"What do you mean by that?"
"We're currently at around 10,000 in altitude. It's still way too high up. If you were to glide through the air, I doubt you'd land on land.
At the speed we're going, it'll also take a while before you can even drop off. Plus, we still need to recover the storage artifact and that boat, which is falling at high speed as we speak."
Rey looked at the black slime with a straight face.
"My life is much more important than any artifacts."
"You mean a few coins."
Rey took a deep breath and sighed.
*DEEP BREATH*
*SIGH*
"Were you always like this..."
"And were you always a chicken?"
"A chicken huh...? If I'm a chicken, then I'm the rooster, and you're the hen."
"... I'm a slime. Idiot."
"... It's just a figure of speech."
While chillingly having a bro conversation under the shadows of the night and in the brilliance of the moonlight, Rey kept on gliding through the astonishing height of 11,000 feet.
"This is boring. I might as well help you go down much faster."
"Wait what do you mean by that?"
The black slime aimed its mouth towards the trench coat.
*DEEP BREATHS*
"WAIT! STOP THAT!!
*SPIT!*
We're currently in the middle of the sea!"
*PUNCTURE*
It spat out black liquids as big as two fists combined, making a huge hole in the trench coat.
"Fuck. I swear if I manage to survive this, I'll tell Hades that you scammed him after I end up in the afterlife!"
*FREE FALL*
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Tears and snot kept gushing through his eyes and nose as he descended in a free fall.
*STRETCH*
*SQUIRM*
Trying to alleviate the impact, he struggles to squirm; facing his front, he tries to swim mid-air, randomly flailing around his hands and feet.
"IT'S NOT WORKING!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! IM GONNA DIE FOR REAL THIS TIME!!"
The last person to be seen crying his lungs out in the middle of the night and sea. Rey Everlyn.

.....
3 Days Later. Philippines, South Luzon. Pagbilao Grande Island. At the coast of Isla Chica Eco Resort.
Early morning of the 10th of July. A flock of seagulls rises from the stone shore. From within this place lies an eco-friendly resort. Few are awake, and the majority are still heavily sleeping. A boy, 7 years of age, was playing with his dog on the shorelines.
The two fascinating creatures kept playing chase so early in the morning; his parents were a few miles away cooking their breakfast.
While playing with an innocent smile on his face. The young boy halted seeing something huge closing in on them.
"What is that?"
The boy spoke in Tagalog, trying to figure out the humongous thing from a distance.
Oddly, the boy thought of it as a pirate ship and hurriedly called out for his parents with urgency.
"MOM!
DAD!
THERE'S A BIG PIRATE SHIP!"
At the same time. Somewhere in Tartarus.
Inside the judgment hall.
A Goddess with short greying hair, fair skin and bloodshot eyes wearing white tunics with red accents, presented herself to the 3 judges of Tartarus. King Minos, Aeacus, and Radamanthus sitting on a judge's bench.
"We, the 3 Judges of Tartarus, sentence Izanami-no-mikoto, the newly appointed ruler of the Underworld, to be sentenced to a thousand years in prison in the lowest depths of Tartarus!"
