Chapter 389 - 390 – Forgotten Execution Grounds – Part 10.
"Oh, fuck me… That bastard finally died." – said ClownFrog as he approaches Oron.
"….?"
"Oron?"
"Y-yea?" – said Oron as he turned around.
"Are alright?" – asked ClownFrog.
"…."
"Say… We are bad guys…. We killed countless innocent people, be it weak or strong, children's or elders… We felt guild at start, but after that we felt nothing…... But this…. Fuck me… This feels weird." – said Oron.
(I've killed children's and elderly in this game over and over…. But this death…. It felt sick….)
(…. No.)
(It…. He wanted to die and that was an mercy kill.)
(Those chains in his eyes by the look of things were the reason why it even attacked us and as soon as it regained reason, the chains activated, taking it away and turning the Executioner into animal.)
(….)
"What happened?" – said Rampage as she grabbed Oron shoulder.
"JEZUS!" – shouted Oron.
"Don't sneak up on me like that!"
"Em… But I didn't." – said Rampage.
"Anyway, what did you did back there?"
"You made the boss monster suddenly became way easier to beat. The hell you did to make it like that?"
"…."
"I…. I talked." – said Oron who hesitated a bit before replying.
"I…. This guy was able to speak Greek language."
"Hm? Greek? You mean…. Wait, wasn't the tablet back then written…..." – said ClownFrog after pausing for an moment.
"…Oron. Can you explain everything?"
"…."
"This…. This thing was an men…. Or specifically an child." – said Oron.
"…. What?" – said Rampage as she gazed at the corpse of the Executioner with confused look.
"Wait, that "THING" is an child?!"
"…More like its mind was that of an child." – said Oron with distrusted look.
"It was Zeus doing."
"And the Zeus in question was an god by the look of things."
"Zeus murdered both of this child parents and then tortured this child ever since young age."
"He then forced to execute people…... And he was the only executioner of this place."
"An single execution platform."
"And an single executioner."
"It was saying that it didn't want to hurt people and it hated it and it also said something about curse, chains and brain."
"…This is just theory, but those chains that we saw…. They were probably wrapped around the Executioner brain and they were straight up torturing him over and over, forcing him to execute people."
"It was crying for his mom as well…. And in the end, it didn't had any option but to chop off people heads."
"Each and every monster in this dungeon have their head chopped off and then they were cursed by chains."
"Youi said yourself, these guys weren't undeads." – said Oron as he looked at ClownFrog.
"Zues…. He cursed every single being in this dungeon with those chains."
"And if those beings were same as this kid… Then that means they were forced to attack us…. They wanted to die, but couldn't stop themselves from attacking."
"…. Shit." – said Shri with eyes wide open.
"I met countless demons, some with fucked up hobbies while some others with straight up torture as an hoppy…. But this?" – said Hera as she approached the group.
"This is fucked up, even for an most fucked up demon."
"And the thing is that this guy was related to Zeus as well." – said Oron.
"?"
"Related?" – asked Shri.
"…."
"This guy mother was an god…. Or specifically an goodness Artemis."
"And the father was an titan I never heard about who went by name Korags."
"Wait, did you said titan and god?!" – shouted Hera.
"Are you saying this thing is an mix of both?!"
"I think so…. It did even said that his mother was an god and father was an titan." – said Oron.
"Artemis was an goddess was an goodness of hunt as well as few other things like nature related stuff as well as chastity and childbirth."
"She was also an daughter of Zeus and Leto."
"…."
"Those slash marks…. And the statue…. It was all that guy doing." -said GreyHunt as he recalled the slash marks on the doors as well as the decapitated statue.
"The monsters of the dungeon may have tried to leave the dungeon…. Or "People" of the dungeon tried to leave, but the chains made them suffer and go berserk, with resulted in them wiping out monsters before then making them run back inside the dungeon."
"That explains why the doors on the outside were also damage, since these people didn't wanted to go back in and that included the Executioner."
"And what we saw before was the chains activating themselves, taking away any sanity that guy… Or child had before."
"They were chained like dogs, eh?" – said Rampage.
"Tch."
"I don't know who the fuck Zeus is in this world…. But I already dislike him if he can do that kind of fucked up thing."
"Still, there is one more question through." – said ClownFrog.
"It's regarding the prisoners."
"Who were they?"
"Some of them had human like body, so they could be either human or elf for example."
"But some of them had more monster like appearance, so lamia, siren, harpies…. But then again, some of them had one arm that was an wing or some had two tails instead of pair of legs."
"Some of them were also smaller or bigger, so they could have been dwarf, giants or halflings… But again, some of them had animalistic features or limbs, and they were exactly kobolds or goblins."
"So who or what were those creatures or people?"
"…."
"We don't have anything that would point out to the truth behind the people here, but according to Oron, this kid had slain countless "innocent" people, meaning that they weren't some mindless monsters, but instead "People"." – said Lil.
"Maybe Zeus cursed them or something? He did implanted them with those cursed chains and we saw what happened to Executioner. He turned into animal." – said Ampi.
"Maybe he wanted to destroy their humanity?"
"…. Tch."
"Considering what we just found out, I wouldn't have been surprised if he did that." – said Rampage.
"…. Just staying in this place makes me sick."
"I don't want to rush it, but can be leave?"
"…."
"Oron. Let's take everything and leave already." – said ClownFrog as he grabbed Oron shoulder.
"…. Yea…. Let's go already." – said Oron with tired voice.
After defeating the Forgotten Executioner and shutting down this Forgotten Fragment permanently, the dungeon curse that prevent us from leaving or communicating with outside world have been removed, allowing us to talk and inform the guild what happened and why they couldn't communicate us.
And with that, one of our goals that were needed for the conquest of the Bloody Mountains have been fulfilled.
Honestly, its not like we could have left that dungeon alone…. The monsters have tried to escape once and went berserk, so if they would try to do that again, we could possibly end up suffering…. Maybe not soon, but maybe in future…. So, we had no choice and like Oron said, it was mercy killing.
As for Oron…. I think he took it hard, slaying the Executioner to the point he straight up logged out, saying that he needs an room to breathe. Shri logged off to check her brother and see if everything was fine.
….
(What the fuck.) – though ClownFrog while in his office.
(First Amadeus and now Executioner? What the fuck is going on?) – though tired ClownFrog.
"…."
("He cried… He begged…. He wanted his mommy.") – though ClownFrog as he recalled Oron words.
(One big plot after another.)
"…."
"Should we make informations public?"
(This isn't just some information bound to one kingdom or one empire, but this world as whole.)
(The mad god of heaven.)
(And especially the Greek gods such as Zeus and Artemis.)
(Why the hell Greek gods are here….)
"…..."
"Zeus killed Artemis? Why?"
"Bocuse, she fell in love with titan?"
(Gods an titans were enemies in Greek mythology from what I remember… So, something like an forbitten love?)
(And this isn't all.)
(We looked it up online and even had Oron to confirm some situation.)
(According to the myths, Artemis was never married.)
(In some mythologies and theories it was said that she had an lover named Orion, an son of the Poseidon, god of sea and brother of Zeus.)
(However, there was not an single mention of the Orion in that dungeon, nor the executioner said anything about him.)
(And this isn't all.)
(Artemis wanted to remain virgin. She even begged her father to. So what is going on? Shouldn't Artemis be virgin goodness? If so, then how did she gave birth to the half titan half god son?)
(There is also this concerning part about the text we found.)
(The text that we found on the table is suggesting as if Zeus was the only god…. Did Zeus murdered all other Olympian gods and made himself an "Only God"?)
(Not only that, but the Forgotten being had some sanity? It shouldn't be possible.)
(We looked both online and in game regarding Forgotten beings and they had one thing in common.)
("Sanity" doesn't exist for them.)
(…...)
(Or is it only low level ones?)
(Do higher level ones retains some of the sanity?!)
"…."
(Or is it because the Executioner was an child of an titan and god?)
(That guy was definitely strong… Heck, he was definitely stronger than Amadeus himself and we are also talking about "US" who got an huge upgrade after slaying Amadeus.)
"…."
"[Pharaoh Of Dead] had finally reached rank 4 (Max) after this fight."
(It has been more than an year in game after I obtained this class and even with the heavy focus on necromancy, it still took a lot of time for it to reach rank 4.)
(But now that I have it, I'm an monster.)
"…."
(There is also "That". The weapon used by the Forgotten Executioner.)
(I wasn't expecting to get it and for its rarity to be that high.)
([Rare Legendary].)
(This is an second [Rare Legendary] we had ever obtained with GreyHunt having his [Arch Devil Seven] that is also [Rare Legendry].)
(But…. None of our core members can use it.)
(Its an axe type weapon that requires multiple axe related classes and not only that, berserk type classes.)
"…."
(The one that fits the bill the most would be either Wretch or Cave.)
(But they would need to make an whole ass build around that axe in order to use it.)
"…."
"Still… What the fuck was with that dungeon."
(Its not just Zeus, but other Olympian gods also existed in this world, but they could have been possible murdered by Zeus.)
(There is the whole execution ground slash prison where the people were tormented by Zeus.)
(And there is also the thing regarding the prisoners. Who or what they were?)
(And lastly but not least: What is Forgotten World?)
(The Forgotten Bride had left us with straight up zero clues, but the Executioner have left us with now way too many questions.)
(….)
(Should we be actively aiming for Forgotten Worlds from now on? And that by that I mean the Forgotten Fragments?)
(I can't say I'm not curios and if anything, now I see the Forgotten World in completely different light…. But also, I now also feel like "We should" look into it, even if we are the "EVIL" people.)
"…."
*Sigh*
"Fuck… I also need to log out for an moment." – said ClownFrog as he opened his game menu.
[Do you wish to log out?]
[Yes/No]
[YES]
[Logging out process will start.]
(Maybe I should get myself some beer… Yea… it should do the trick.)
[You have logged out.]
[YoU hAvE lOgGeD oUt.]
[You *%$(!$#!$@]
