Omega Summoner
Chapter 184 - The Price Of Luck
The snow woman is looking at the Aspect of Death that is currently flying above her. She is still screaming because her soul is being continuously burned by the chains of Tartarus. Thanatos is staring at her without even a shred of pity or remorse.
"The souls of that of which you tormented for years shall be the one who tortures you in Tartarus." Thanatos stated as he spread out his power.
The ice chains that is binding and torturing the souls of the frozen men suddenly shattered. The spirits manifested for all to see due to Thanatos' power. The spirits of the frozen men then gathered around the snow woman as they stared at her with great anger that their eyes are glowing red due to the intensity of that hatred.
"What you have done to these souls will be done to you. You will experience their torment for the amount of years you have tormented them plus a couple eons or so." Thanatos stated arbitrarily which made the snow woman's eye bulge.
Thanatos then conjured a magic circle that immediately radiated heat like that of the flames in Tartarus. The giant hand then grabbed the woman and dragged her down. The spirits that she tortured vanished one by one until the magic circle that Thanatos conjured completely vanished.
The whole group is so amazed by what happened that they could not muster up even basic words. The silence though is broken by Thanatos as he bid his goodbye.
"It seems that my time in the mortal plane is short lived. I have to bid my goodbye here, Shepherd of Souls. May we meet again but of course with you being alive and well." Thanatos said jokingly.
"Of course. We thank you for helping us in our plight." Adrian said as he bowed slightly to express his unending gratitude.
"I bid my farewell then. A last reminder for all of you before I leave. Never stare back at death in the face." Thanatos stated as he entered the gate from which he appeared from.

"Wow! Who knew you had such a powerful summon big brother. Maybe you should have summoned him when we are fighting the boss." Creepysoo said and it broke the silence that continued after Thanatos left.
"I actually just lucked out because I am pretty sure that I would not be able to summon him normally. He is basically a random summon that has a time limit. Also, what you saw is actually the Aspect of Death. His lesser persona at least. I bet his real form is vastly different from what we saw." Adrian stated which surprised everyone.
"You mean he is that shadow we see when we die in Pandemonium? He looks cooler now that I can see him clearly. I usually just see a shadow coming for my soul. I swear this game sometimes creeps me out because even death is fantasy like." Kabrakan stated as he has probably experience the most deaths among the group.
"I am actually wondering about something." Levin Cloud suddenly said which made all of them look towards him.
"What is it? Spill it already the suspense is killing me." Peridot replied because Levin Cloud took his time before answering.
"I did not get a notification that we received any experience points." Levin Cloud said which made everyone check their system notifications if it is true.
All of them actually did not get experience points because they did not contribute much to the battle. Adrian then suddenly searched at the location where the frost liches died. He did not see any dropped items or even coins at the location.
Adrian then searched the location where the snow woman was dragged down by a giant hand. Like with the area where the frost liches died, there was nothing there. Adrian dropped on the floor on all fours and realized that they got nothing.
As much as the battle was easy or rather they barely did anything, they were also deprived of the rewards they could get from defeating their foes. Pandemonium was all about giving great rewards the greater the effort which is why the party was denied of their drops.
They basically did nothing but at the very least they cleared the current floor without sacrificing much. The only problem is that Adrian is lamenting is that there were no dropped items. Probably the things that he needs the most right now are items because of his growth items that are basically insatiable.
The others who saw Adrian already crying could only wonder what he was going through. Those who can feel Adrian's pain secretly wept (Levin Cloud and Kabrakan). Due to them also having growth items, they could feel each other's pain.
Solstice though is already used to her brother's antics and kicked him slightly.
"Let's go. We are wasting time with you emoting too much." Solstice stated as she headed towards the next room.
The others followed suite because they did not want to anger the tigress. Adrian could only be carried by Kanlaon towards the next room because he was refusing to stop sulking.

In a temple that is filled with bones of different kinds of creatures, there an Arch Lich and a hooded individual are conversing. It seems that the hooded individual is not even pressured by the aura that the Arch Lich is releasing. The hooded individual is even contesting the aura of the Arch Lich by himself.
"What do you want accursed Envoy of the Dark Gods?!" Arch Lich Malus stated with slight annoyance to his supposed visitor.
"I am saying that I would help you and in exchange you will do me a small favor." Eldritch stated with a nonchalant face that is difficult read.
"Your sweet words do not fool me Envoy of the Dark Gods. You give the apple but in the end, it was rotten inside the whole time. You are not the first Envoy of the Dark Gods that I met. Which dark god do you serve?" Arch Lich Malus said with annoyance.
Eldritch twitched a little because he is affected by what Arch Lich Malus said but did not show completely on his face. What Eldritch needed is to seal his position as the Envoy of the Dark Gods. It seems that his position can be easily taken away from him if he is not careful.
Apparently, he learned that there are other promising players that could become envoys for dark gods so he must do his best to keep his position. He is fighting tooth and nail with them in order for him to keep his current unique job class.
He just unlocked this unique job class and the world message that was broadcasted to everyone was not as special like Adrian's world message. The world message that appeared was "The darkness is rising". All the players thought that it was just a prelude message for the Halloween event so they did not think much of it.
Unfortunately, Adrian is out of commission when this world message was announced. If he was online then he might have put two and two together but fate is not his mistress. Right now, Eldritch needed to find where the Lich King is buried because he needed to break his seal.
Eldritch is ordered by the dark gods to do this because they needed someone to counteract the energy that is made to separate the mortal plane to the godly plane. The Lich King is a combination of a former Envoy of the Twin Gods and a dark god making the Lich King the most optimal choice to free from his seal.
Arch Lich Malus does not want to accept the help of Eldritch because if the Lich King is unsealed then he will not be able to control him. It would be Arch Lich Malus himself that would be controlled by the Lich King which is why the Arch lich himself help plot the former heroes to seal the Lich King. The Arch Lich Malus might be able to sway control over the Undead King but not towards the Lich king who is a god trapped in a mortal body.
The Arch Lich is seriously considering his options because Eldritch promised Malus that he would give him control a legion of aberrations. Eldritch also promised the Arch Lich to help in the search for the Undead King. The terms that Eldritch gave is far too tempting to not accept.
"I can give you the location where the Lich King is sealed but only if you find the place where the Undead King is sealed. That is my only condition. I do not need a legion of your mindless aberrations that could not follow instructions." Arch Lich Malus stated in a serious tone.
"Follow instructions my ass. You are just a control freak that does not want to share power with someone at your same level or stronger than you." Eldritch thought as he smiled and accepted the Arch Lich's proposition.
"All I needed is the location of the area where the Lich King is sealed anyway. All I need to do now is find where the Undead King is sealed." Eldritch thought as he disappeared in a puff of smoke after the deal has been made.
