The Live Streaming Platform of Han Ya, An Yuan, Hei Anjing, and Lou Yan had fallen into silence. The glare from Ye Xiajie was so frightening that some viewers had peed on their pants and the others cried on the spot. The silence was almost done all at the same time.
Ye Xiajie was so happy to see his wife awake and had forgotten the existence of the camera for a moment. Though he would usually kiss his wife even when they are in public he would still get jealous thinking that a lot of people were watching his wife. It annoys him badly.
His annoying mood only fades when he feels his wife pinching his waist. He loosened his hold on his head and the latter was finally able to breathe properly.
Pinches~
Hiss~
Puwah!
With the corner of his eyes, a bit teary and red Hei Anjing glares at his husband.
"I can't breathe right now. Are you trying to kill me?" scolded Hei Anjing.
"No. Of course not. Baby, Calm down Angry is bad for your health." said Ye Xiajie who started acting like a henpecked husband.
Of course, his arms trapped his wife within his embrace and had no intention of letting the latter stand to leave his lap. He had a rare smile and eyes full of doting and affection as he looked at his wife. It wasn't like the usual Ye Xiajie who was cold and ruthless while not in the presence of his beloved.
Hei Anjing lets the man do whatever he wants. He was used to his sticky nature for all those lifetimes. He cannot be changed now even though their son had inherited his father's stickiness.
"Okay. Enough nonsense for now. I have made food. Let's go eat first and wait for the others." said Hei Anjing.
With a single wave of his hand, a thick picnic mat appeared out of nowhere. There are layered bento boxes, a few liters of fruit juice drinks, and baskets of fruits and desserts.
Hei Anjing reached out of his hand and hugged his husband's neck and ordered cutely, "Done. Go sit there. So we can eat. I've made all your favorites."
The rare beautiful smile appeared on Hei Anjing's face, everyone can see his extreme affection towards Ye Xiajie. The usual coldness and indifference within those eyes were replaced with a loving gaze and only one man in this world can receive such undying love from this cold-hearted man.
This tenderness and loving affections were something this couple would spread whenever they were together. Their subordinates were used to it but the other people weren't.
Ye Xiajie carried his wife and walked towards the picnic mat. As soon as he sat down he placed his wife on his lap. Hei Anjing let himself sit on his husband's lap while getting some food for the two of them. They shared the same plate and utensils. Under the camera of the live streaming platform, they feed each other ignoring the fact where they are.
Seeing someone have a picnic in the last layer of hell. Looking cozy and relaxed without any care for the world made those demons who worked in the place didn't know how to react at all. Even Fa Yue, this Fallen Angel who almost got himself stuck inside a dimensional space was stunned silly by the scene at the last layer.
Hei Anjing would always look at him like he is some kind of disgusting bug to crush under his foot. He would sometimes smile but that only gave him the feeling of sardonic and annoyance. Even then he still looks so beautiful. The most beautiful being he had seen in all his life. But now seeing that indifferent little devil smiling sweetly and full of affection made him realize that he will never be the person who will receive the beauty's sincere affections.
Fa Yue observed the man his queen had loved the most. Though he already knew about Player Abyss's existence, since the King of Hell himself told the rest of them to leave alone the ranked first and second players for unknown reasons, none of the other abyssal demons had asked for the reason. The order of the Evil God cannot be ignored after all.
"Why…? Why does this player give me the same feeling whenever I meet the King of Hell? Player Abyss… Was it? Moreover, a human who had awakened an Ice elf bloodline yet could use Space elements. This couple is indeed… Interesting…" murmured Fa Yue.
Behind him, the two demon followers were the ones who helped him get out of that uncoordinated space Hei Anjing had thrown him in.
One of the demon followers politely asked, "My Lord, what should be done about the stamps that were stolen?"
"A lot of players had started complaining about not receiving stamps." said the other demon follower.
Fa Yue replies, "No worries. I made another two sets. One for each of you. From now on you will resume your duties of giving stamps. The mission given to me has been completed. I need to report the above."
"Order received, My Lord!" said the two demon followers.
After giving the two boxes of stamps to the demon followers Fa Yue unfurled his black wings and flew away. He left hell to report to the Heavenly Laws about Hei Anjing's existence. As soon as the lord had left the two demons split and started giving the late stamps the players had been waiting for.
Meanwhile, in the fifth layer of hell, the other two couples were being attacked by this layer's Area Boss. The Guardian of the Hell, Cerberus.
Cerberus noticed the two delicious humans whom he wasn't able to eat all this time. Seeing them out of their cave, he could help but drool upon the sight of An Yuan. For some reason, An Yuan looks so delicious to him other than the other three players that were with him. After all, among all four of them, An Yuan was the only human left. The others have hidden identities much less the Protagonist Gong whose identity is that of the Strongest Undead under the reign of the Evil God.
Looking at An Yuan who suddenly hid behind Han Ya, the Cerberus drool was flowing like a small waterfall.
"Humans, you look so delicious. Especially you…" said Cerberus as he pointed at An Yuan.
An Yuan was slightly afraid but still talked back to the huge beast.
"I'm not delicious. I'm all bones and don't have much flesh on me!!" yelled An Yuan.
Cerberus responded, "Don't worry. Bones are my favorites."
"Stupid mutt! Watch where you are looking. Do you want to die?" said Han Ya, his face dark in anger. No one had dared to ignore him before much more to target his beloved on his face made him pissed off.
By the sidelines, Chu Mo was laughing at their interaction. The true roles of Chu Mo and Lan She were only cannon fodders in the presence of the protagonists. With the two of heaven's beloved sons here, of course, no attention will fall on them. That's how biased the heavenly wills are towards their chosen protagonists.
Han Ya had told An Yuan about Chu Mo and vice versa he also told Han Ya about Lan She. So he knew that these two were together and that Player Reaper is looking for one of their teammates which is Lou Yan, Player Abyss.
An Yuan looked at Chu Mo and Lan She and said, "Doctor Lan and Brother Reaper, please help us fight this beast so we can find Sir Hei and Sir Abyss together. They might be together already."
"Okay," said Lan She who agreed unconditionally. If staying with the protagonists means seeing Lord Hei faster then he doesn't mind helping them. He was originally a character that is supposed to join these protagonists.
Seeing his beloved agrees Chu Mo followed after his lover and chose to lend a hand as well.
Chu Mo said, "Leave us a head each. Just find the weakness of this thing soon."
Lan She and Chu Mo finally awakened their bloodline. One is a valkyrie. A God of War who is under the category of angels.
Once Lan She awakened his bloodline a silver armor and spear appeared on him. Three pairs of white-feathered wings appeared behind his back. Behind his eyes were feathers as well. The eyes behind his glasses turned crimson and killing intent spread from himself. He looks strong and dignified in silver armor.
With a slight frown on his face Lan She looked at the heavy-looking silver spear in his hand. His lover noticed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong honey?" asked Chu Mo.
"I don't know how to use a spear." honestly answered Lan She. Even is he used to be a high-ranking God as the former God of Fate he rarely enters the battlefield. He is unable to use heavy weapons as his forte are elemental spells not fighting.
Chu Mo laughed for a moment only to stop when he saw his beloved's face turning dark in rage. He is about to explode in anger.
"Let's exchange them. Give me the spare and I will give you my whip, honey~" said Chu Mo.
Like his lover, he had awakened his bloodline. He also has three pairs of feathered wings on his back but unlike Lan She's the color of his wings is black. His ears were pointed like the elves but not as long as those high elves. He looks so much like Lan She yet his body is full of darkness instead of holiness like his lover.
Exchanging their weapons. Lan She now held a black whip in his hand. He immediately liked it when he saw it had the ability to convert qi into elemental energy. Lan She is good with water and electricity. He can use both elements to fight.
Lan She checked his new whip and commented, "Right weight and nice effects. This is quite good enough."
Meanwhile, Chu Mo held the silver spear in his hand though it was a bit light for him. The blessing embedded in the spear would allow him to wield a holy fire that only war angels could use. Against Cerberus who is born in hell, the sacred flames are his menace.
Chu Mo said, "Blessing of Holy Flames. Useful but… It's a bit light."
Han Ya and An Yuan looked at the other couple dumbfounded. Though their bloodlines are quite good themselves. This is the first time they've met someone with Divine Grade Bloodline.
An Yuan was in awe himself, "Wow~ A War Angel and a Fallen Angel. They look wonderful."
Manager Gui stuttered, [What is this? There is someone who has awakened as A Valkyrie among humans. How come I didn't know!?]
[So he is a Fallen Angel like that man named Fa Yue but… How come he feels, even more, stronger than the real born Fallen when he is only a bloodline awakener? Boss, both these two's bloodline are Divine Grade.] said Manager Tian.
Han Ya was staring at the two silently but he was only observing them and did not speak a single word. No one knew what he was talking about. He also awakened his bloodline. Not the ordinary Undead bloodline but his Demon bloodline instead. He had a pair of huge black wings on his back but it wasn't made of feathers but more like bat wings instead. His black hair turned longer flowing like silk behind his back.
A black horn appeared on his head, claws and fangs on himself. Plus, like when he is undead his pupils turned pure black and only his gold irises remain. Even An Yuan was surprised by the sudden changes in Han Ya's bloodline.
An Yuan asked in surprise. He was touching the huge wings and horn on Han Ya's body fearlessly.
"Amazing~ what is this? Did your Undead bloodline upgrade, Xiao Ya?" asked An Yuan.
Lan She who looks as calm as always commented, "That is not an Undead Bloodline. Instead, it is also a divine-grade bloodline like ours. His bloodline is that of a Demon."
Manager Gui was shocked like his player, An Yuan. He flew towards Manager Tian and rammed on him without hesitation.
[Speak! How come your player's bloodline suddenly changes from Rare Grade to a Divine Grade!?]
Though Manager Gui was asking such a question deep inside him he knew that the big boss must have awakened his real bloodline. Manager Gui is giving Manager Tian a chance to give an explanation.
Manager Tian with swirling eyes replied, [On the verge of death, My Player had awakened his Demon Bloodline. The Undead Bloodline is one of the branches of Demon Bloodline as long as he reaches the prerequisite to upgrade. His bloodline strength would change as well.
Under the cliff in the Hell of Wrongful Death, to survive my player fought with hundreds of Fierce ghosts and spirits. He even ate them and his physique completely awakened. That's how he achieved a Demonic Bloodline and it is the purest kind of them all.]
Chu Mo reacted, "Tsk! As expected of Heaven's Beloved son. What a cheater! Humpff!!"
UGH~
Lan She elbowed his lover's stomach to shut him up. His words were so straightforward that it wouldn't be surprising for the Heavenly Laws to catch them as outsiders.
"Idiot. Watch your mouth," said Lan She as he glared at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo shut his mouth as he was told and clung to his lover's back as if he was badly bullied by his beloved and is now pouting.
RRROAAAARRR~
Cerberus says, "DAMN HUMANS~ HOW DARE YOU IGNORE ME!!!"
The huge three-headed monster had started attacking them. They had to fly in the sky to avoid his attack. Chu Mo and Lan She started attacking Cerberus while Han Ya carried An Yuan in his arms and let him observe the monster boss so he could analyze the weakness of this NPC Area Boss.
Han Ya knew why An Yuan was silent when he should have his demon bloodline. He knew that his A'Yuan wanted to be jealous of his sudden increase of strength but instead was thinking how much he had suffered under that cliff and how he hid from him his real state. He is pouting.
"A'Yuan, I…"
"Talk later. Don't bother me. I'm looking for the weakness of the monster." said An Yuan as his eyes started glowing as he activated his ancient human bloodline. He was using most of his brain to analyze the weakness of the Guardian of the Hell.
"….. Okay. Don't be angry, A'Yuan," said Han Ya but the latter ignored him on purpose.
In the end, he could only sigh and observe the battle before him. The two waited at the side. Waiting for An Yuan to find the weakness of Cerberus. Chu Mo and Lan She are there to distract the monster.. A War God and a Fallen Angel are enough to hold back the beast in place.
