Chapter 961 Hell Snake
He could only feel the change in his body for a few seconds before the throne released an enormous Magic Power into the air to kick him out.
"!!!" Theo was shocked at first, but his heart calmed down when the souls entered his vision. He thought, \'I see. I have been there for too long.\'
\'Still, does the throne have a consciousness of its own? Or is it programmed by the previous God of Death?\' While flying, Theo observed the throne but to no avail. There was nothing that could be found.
Giving up, he landed on the ground smoothly with the help of his Telekinesis and went back to the snake since he had finished the problem.
Theo gracefully nodded his head, showing his thanks.
The snake narrowed his eyes for a moment and said, "I don\'t smell any more death from you. It seems you have successfully revived your body. Anyway, I\'ve heard that you\'re going to return."
"Yes." Theo admitted it without hesitation and added, "That\'s why I need the torch that can protect me from the cold."
"It\'s a shame, but we don\'t have any more torches like that. There\'s no torch produced after the Goddess of Death died." The snake shook his head with an ashamed face.
"…" Theo\'s eyebrows twitched but he still remembered what he said previously. "You have the torch."
It was the snake\'s turn to be shocked, looking at Theo\'s expression, which seemed to believe the torch was indeed there.
In Theo\'s mind, he simply stated something that he wanted to be the reality. In the snake\'s mind, he thought Theo already knew something about this place.
"I was kidding. The torch is here." The snake returned to his own place and brought a small stick in his hand. Even though it was small, that was just compared to the snake. Its real size was seven feet long.
Before giving him the stick, the snake lit it up with the help of black-colored fire on the side.
"This can burn for fifteen days. When you get out, cut the stick and make sure the fire vanishes. After that, throw back the stick inside the snowy field."
Theo furrowed his eyebrows and felt a powerful Magic Power fluctuation coming from the fire. It seemed the fire was special. Although he didn\'t feel the warmth of the flame, he could feel the torch forming a transparent sphere around him.
"I am the guardian of this place. My Order is Hellfire and I\'m known as Hell Snake. I greet the possessor of the Reality Order, O\' Reality King." The snake humbly lowered his head.
Theo was confused by the snake for a second. At first, he dared to even joke around with him. And now, he bowed to him politely.
"What are you up to?" Theo narrowed his eyes, trying to pry for more information.
"I just wish to know whether you have a connection…" The snake suddenly fell silent because he saw the unbelievable.
Theo\'s Death Avatar emerged from behind him, giving him the feeling of death. This avatar was enough for him to prove his identity. As if not liking his previous joke, Theo teased him back, "What? Are you going to say you\'re going to bring me back to the world of the living?"
His words woke the snake up as he immediately replied, "Yes."
"…" Theo widened his eyes in shock. If there was another person\'s help, he should be able to return much faster. Unfortunately for him, the snake continued, "…is what I wanted to say, but the dead can\'t go to the world of the living. I can only bring you back to the entrance of this place."
There was no reason to refuse, but Theo still shook his head, rejecting him. He even started walking to the bridge. "I was kidding. No need to bring me there. I can walk by myself."
"Is that so? I was also joking. I need to stand here after all…" The snake chuckled.
"Hmm…" Theo mumbled before glancing to the side. "Then, why are you following me?"
Despite what he said, the snake still followed beside him as if he wanted to see Theo off personally.
However, the snake played dumb by saying, "What are you talking about? I need to talk with the bridge keeper…"
"Is that so?" Theo walked faster. And as expected, the snake followed his pace, making sure he was at his side. Theo\'s eyebrows twitched, and he said, "So, why are you increasing your speed?"
"I can\'t wait to meet her." The snake kept playing dumb, albeit it was a bad move.
Theo stopped at that moment and said playfully, "Is that so? You can go first."
The snake stopped abruptly and realized Theo\'s plan.
"You said you can\'t wait to meet her. Go on." Theo shrugged.
"I remember that we won\'t be separated for hundreds if not thousands of years, so there\'s no need to rush."
"You know you\'re being shameless, right?" Theo narrowed his eyes.
"I don\'t know what you are talking about."
Theo snorted and jumped to the snake\'s back. "Then, let\'s go. If you want to bring me there just say it. There\'s no need to hide your intention."
"As I said, I don\'t know what you\'re talking about. But because the Reality King wants it, I will reluctantly send you to the entrance." The snake looked forward, refusing to see Theo in the eyes.
"…" Theo was speechless as he remembered another myth. It was said that the gatekeeper was a dog as well as Hel\'s friend. When he imagined this snake as a dog, he could see the wagging tail easily.
Unfortunately, the one before him was a snake. He could play dumb all he wanted.
\'Well, I originally planned to have my clone carry me there while I tried to connect to the world to learn more about my Order… Either way, I need to go back.\' Theo sighed, not knowing what to say to this snake who happily moved forward.
