The Atlantean Compensator 36 Duellers In The Cellar

The risk should be taken!

Love! Stay here and protect all bodies. If anything happens wrong i want you to inlease your powers."

Love. "Don't worry! I'll take care of what happens here."

'Wisdom and Power both then closed their eyes and touched the side of their forehead with two fingers.'

'It seems that it's their way of teleporting inside of Herald's mind, where the Labryinth exists.

And so they do...'

'At this moment, Mammon is walking down a narrow road towards a door that seems to be the way out of all this Labrynith.

Herald is slowly regaining consciousness..'

"....Hey!

Let me..

Let me get on my feet!"

Mammon. "Why so? You're tired it's alright let me carry you."

Herald. "..No! I said...Get me on my feet!!"

'Herald tries to move his body and gets down, which Mammon lets him to do so without any refusal or resistance.'

'Herald barely can stand up..'

He says. "...What's that door?"

Mammon. "That's the door that leads towards your awakening and then out of this illusion.

I know every path in this Labryinth and what it stands for."

Herald takes a moment before replying.

"...Is..That so?

But...

What is the test?

I haven't done anything and am not sure...

Is there...Even a test??"

Mammon. "..Yeah.

There is a test, what you've been going through in here is how you'll awaken your powers as a Monarch child.

By giving me your trust, you succeed the test and the door appears.

Doesn't that make sense to you, Mr Herald?"

'Herald was still drunk and exhausted he did not notice that the man's face appeared this time arround until now.'

'Tall strong body, short soft black hair, little beard, long symmetrical face with sharp gla.s.ses .

He looks like a business man...One who you know is good but cannot be trusted...'

'Herald may be drunk but did not completely lose his intelligence and smart thinking.'

"...If the test is actually real, then...How can you explain that Thoth himself told me about it?

Not only that..

UGH!! My G.o.dd.a.m.n head hurts...

Not only that but, even I was put outside the gate to get awakened..

Now that i think about..

What makes your Monarch child talk any more believable than being Atlantean??

You lured me into drinking, which i have not agreed to.. Then you proceeded to tell me about all that Ultra MQ project..

Not saying it doesn't sound logical or real as well..

But..."

*Mammon removes his gla.s.ses to clean them a bit as he's talking*

"Hmmmm..So you're still not convinced Mr.Herald.

It's a shame that you're giving one of the top presidents a hard time when he came personally for you.

We do realise your importance but you do not realise ours."

Herald. "..It's not that but, You have not yet convinced me truly...

You said this is all illusions and wicked ways used by what you call Terrorists.

Then you say this Labrynith is real, Thoth specefically informed me that i have to take these tests in order to get awakened.

Matter of fact.

I don't care what you say anymore sir, This is real and...

You're fake!!!"

*Mammon puts his gla.s.ses back on*

"Is that so...

Well, nothing short of what is expected from you Mr.Herald.

I thought for a second that i have gained your trust, but your spirit force is so high that it does not wanna succ.u.mb to me even when being not completely conscious..."

'Herald notices the change in Mammon's tone and even aura..

Its getting darker.'

"..So, i was right! You're fooling me..."

Mammon. "I am not, what i said is mostly true...

*With an terrifying tone*

For many others!!

We already came this far and the door is just meters away from us, seems like i might be forced to use methods that were not necessary."

Herald backs off a bit and tries to run away, but in no time he finds Mammon in front of him.

"You can't escape at this point, I promise you great things..

Greater than what the Atlanteans will ever do.

You might not like the concept at the beginning, but you'll find out it's for you own good Mr Herald."

*Herald is getting scared.*

"...Get...Get away from me!!

WHO ARE YOU??!!"

Mammon. "You'll soon know!"

*Mammon in a very quick speed carries Herald with one hand and grows two big black wings on his back. Similar to Azazel's but not as big*

'With one hit from his wings towards the door...'

The door is crashed...

BUT

It's crashed on him!!!!

Alkeyder and Hercales finally arrived to the scene and broke in with all their forces, throwing both Mammon and Herald back and not letting them pa.s.s.'

'Hercales wasted no time, the moment Mammon and Herald were thrown back he moved as fast as possible, beyond what the human eye could perceive and quickly took Herald away.'

'Mammon then reacts and follows Heracles with the same speed.'

Heracles. "Hey, catch him!!"

'He throws the unconscious Herald towards Alkeyder who catches him perfectly, then proceeds to stop Mammon.'

*Both clash!!*

'Heracle's body is bigger and stronger than that of Mammon's but his wings make him look even more intimidating and cover larger s.p.a.ce.'

'Mammon uses his wings as a shield to protect him from Heracle's continuous furocious punches. By turning them into steel.'

Heracles.

"Bold of you to a.s.sume that I cannot pierce steel."

'Heracles hand turned all red and yellow, like fire!

He backed it off as much as he could and sent it straight towards Mammon.

Mammon quickly reacted and barely dodged the blow!

With an acrobatic elegant move he kicked Heracles with his leg which threw him away meters away.'

'The blow Heracles sent did not make contact with anything other than air. But It was so strong and fast that air itself started catching fire...'

'Before it spread out he blew it off with a cold breeze from his mouth. which turned it into ice instead.'

*Mammon lands on top of the wall, In the middle of the moon.*

"So, you decided to take the risk and come here as well!"

Heracles.

"Long time no see!

I was wondering what the circ.u.mstances of our next meeting would be."

Mammon smiles.

"Even Alkeyder is here!

I would say it's a good move. Or else Mr. Herald would have been ours.

However, This does only lead to his death.

I will gladly take that option instead of letting him in your hands."

'Alkeyder in these moments is trying to wake up Herald by reciting what seems to be a magical/religious text.'

*Mammon notices*

"Oh! That would save you some time.

But will not save you from me!!!

*He grins*

Why did you think i designed this place as it is?

This complete beautiful moon..."

*Herald wakes up*

'And looks straight into Alkeyder's worried face that is looking towards Mammon.'

He asks.

"W..Who are you?"

Alkeyder.

"Good thing you woke up.

We're your Atlanteans Masters, we've come to save you from him.."

'Herald links the events and gets somewhat of an idea of what is going on. He knows it's no time for questions.'

Alkeyder. "Stay here behind us.

We'll take care of the rest..."

*Alkeyder floats higher and stands on the same line as Mammon*

'Things got extremely intense...
