Hades

In a place that could only be described as a complete wasteland, Akio walks with his group toward a giant castle that is the home of Hades.

Just as he reached the castle they were stopped by two dark hood figures who held out scythes.

"You are not welcome here turn back." One of the hooded figures spoke unable to feel the true power of the group.

Akio had completely masked their presence to prevent the skeleton God, from running away.

Akio who didn't feel like talking to underlings used spirit magic and completely destroyed their souls.

Their soulless bodies turned to dust as the only thing left from them was their scythes.

Akio and his group continued into the castle with more of the same annoyances trying to interrupt still, they all met the same fate.

It wasn't long before the group arrived in front of a giant door that should lead to someplace grand. Akio only gave one look to the guards before he turned around to Ophis.

"I've been doing a lot, this is your mess." His words said his intention as Ophis just nodded before with a motion as if firing a gun from her fingers she shot a black beam out destroying the door and blowing through the other side.

When the attack died down, something of a throne room could be seen as multiple grim reapers with extremely dark hoods stood around a skeletal figure who sat on a throne.

"So you are the fools-." the skeletal figure aka Hades spoke with a menacing tone before all of a sudden his mouth opened wide.

Even without proper facial expressions, his shock was visible. He remained like that for around 10 seconds before suddenly closing his mouth trying to show a facade of being calm and unaffected.

"Ophis, what is the meaning of this?" There was no respect in his tone as he had learned a while ago that it wasn't important when dealing with her.

"My mate wants you dead...so you die," Ophis spoke with no emotion as she stared at the pile of bones.

"I am a crucial part of getting rid of Great Red you know, without me, it will be impossible," Hades spoke while a magic circle could began to form under him.

"Unnecessary," Ophis spoke before raising her hand. Just before she fired off another black beam some of the grim reapers attempted to intercept her and allow their lord to escape.

Ophis's attack completely shredded through the ultimate class grim reapers.

Luckily, it seemed they had fulfilled their goal as the teleportation circle was activated and Hades body started to disappear.

"Ophis you will pay for this betray, you and your so-called mate." Hades laughed as his body completely disappeared.

The room stood in silence for a bit before on the other side of the room another magical circle appeared and Hades popped back out. He stood facing away from Akio and his group as he kept laughing.

"I should warn Rizevim about this we may need to speed up plans." He started to plan to himself while remaining unaware of his surroundings.

This lasted for another minute before Akio with a smirk...

"EHEMM," fake coughed loudly.

Hades went still as he slowly turned around to reveal the same expression he had last time.

"How?"

Akio just laughed internally. With his spatial abilities, it was all too easy to simply redirect someone's teleportation.

Ophis with her same emotionless face yet again raised her hand.

"WAIT, STOP. I'M SORRYYYY." Those were Hades last words as Ophis's attack completely destroyed him. For safe measure, Akio at the last moment infused his spirit magic within the attack making sure his soul was completely destroyed.

With Hades, dead Ophis turned her hand to the last two grim reapers still alive. Both failed upon seeing that hand as they immediately fell to the ground in submission.

Akio knowing who the two were stopped Ophis before speaking out. "What's your intention?"

"P-please spare my daughter she is innocent." The grim reaper who wore a hooded figure spoke with a begging tone.

"Father, no." The little girl who kneeled beside him spoke knowing his intention of giving his own life for her.

"You may do as you please with me, just please allow her to live." The man kept begging.

"What are your names?" Akio coming out of his thoughts spoke.

"Ah, I am Orcus and she is Bennia." The man spoke again with little hope.

"Well, then Orcus Bennia, how would you like to come under new employment?"

One thing Akio had paid special attention to while in the realm of the dead was the death that surrounded the place.

Akio thought that it would be a good way for him to gain further mastery of his death concept.

Also, Myu could always use a new playmate.

Akio went over the details before he temporarily went back to Arcadio introducing Myu to her new personal maid and friend. Akio made absolutely sure the girl harbored no ill will toward Myu as if she tried anything he wouldn't hesitate to snap her neck.

Akio also moved the entirety of the realm of the dead to Arcadio claiming it as his property just as he did Heaven.

There were of course some grim reapers who still held loyalty toward Hades but they were all dealt with. Lastly, Akio set Orcus as their new leader not wanting to spend so much time as they still had more groups of Khaos Brigade to destroy.
