Empress' Evolution

Chapter 85: What a true Myth looks like

"Return! Refund! I want something better!" Lilith was not drunk, but she acted as if she was in a drunken frenzy.

===

[It's not going to work, Lilith. Besides, it's the Cerberus, it's one of the strongest beasts of Myth. It even tore the Hero Herculius when it went to visit the realm of Hell.]

===

Alpha knew of this as she was lazing around when it happened. Though she did not know how the story became the Earth-version of Herculius brought back Cerberus, the fact remained that the originator of that Myth died under the maw of this beast.

'Are you sure this is the one that killed that guy? This little thing looks stupid and unthreatening I don't even own a carpet for me to be threatened.' Lilith was understandably sceptical about this beast.

In front of her was the three-headed puppy that stared directly at Lilith. The three heads had three distinctive looks on their faces, the one on the right was a proud-looking being, in the middle it seemed to be observant and intelligent, for the one on the left, it had its tongue sticking out as it excitedly stared at Lilith.

'These guys seem unstable if they're as strong as you say, don't you think, we'll die before long? I think it would be best if we were to kill it now and turn it to EXP. Killing a Mythical Daemon doesn't sound so bad.' Lilith could already see her level rising.

However, there was one problem.

===

[You can't kill it. It's already registered as your Follower.]

===

'What? That can't be, I received no such notification.' Lilith argued only to have her mouth shut as she heard the system notification.

[Follower +1: Cerberus]

'What the absolute Hell is this? What kind of bullshit did that Goddess do? Did she hack the system? How come my system got overwritten? I don't even know if this thing is uselBloody Hell, what is this?'

Lilith's inner rant came to an abrupt halt as she saw the character sheet of Cerberus.

Note: This is Cerberus, the Guardian of the Underworld. When the Underworld had already been destroyed, together with Hades, only Cerberus remained. It was the only one that survived the onslaught of the beings of Olympus. Despite my invitation to open Hell in the God Realm, it refused to take on the mantle of the Divine Guardian Deity. Its loyalty is not easily earned, but it is one loyal dog if it decides to follow you. If you're shocked about its status, it's a Mythical-Tier daemon, what did you expect? Someone like you? Also, I already turning its stats way down in order not to upset the balance too much. I hope it helps you in your journey out of the Island.

Tip: it loves devious beings, and despite it having three heads, it is one entity so don't treat it like a separate one. It has a unique taste to peoplebut I think you'd be fine without knowing that.

P.S: The Seraphs tried stopping me to not send it back. You better thank me later.]

After reading through its character sheet and the Note left by the GoddessLilith saw her winemaker in a new light. Its existence was not only to create wine and have a sad life, but it was also rather generous and caring.

She couldn't believe that such generosity existed. It was too shocking that it almost converted her into a true believerwell, almost.

Her mind, however, also cleared as the feeling of shame entered her mind.

She had let the Wine take over her mind and cloud her judgment.

'I'm a fucking idiot!' She screamed in her mind. And Alpha nodded its nonexistent head in agreement to her screams. She covered her face as it turned red as if it was a tomato.

However, that didn't last long as the moment her flushed face receded to become normal, a broad grin could be seen from the gaps of Lilith's fingers.

She was still embarrassed about her lack of judgment, but now that she had a clear mind, more and more possibilities appeared in her mind. She failed to resist letting out a chuckle or two.

'Let's see with this guy, I think we can conquer this Stronghold in 6 months.' Lilith had already laid out the plan on how she would go about doing just that.

The middle head was looking around, trying to determine what's the situation. It confirmed the situation, and found Lilith disappointing and stupidthat was until it saw the nasty grin she had behind her hand.

The Cerberus heads all turned to Lilith with a blossoming smile. It found her ratherinteresting.

[Cerberus' loyalty +1]

'It would appear the Absolute One did not let me down." it whispered to itself.
