Chapter 96 ‘IT’


    "Could it be that you saw the future and knew I''de here with you so you left it here for me?""


    Laughing sarcastically, Ye Tian used this as opportunity to probe Apollo on just what he was hiding about this dungeon


    And sure enough, hearing this question, ye Tian could feel a sudden change of mood in the lyre with emotions such as hesitation, anger and frustration radiating out of it


    Obviously whatever happened to him wasn''t something he wanted to talk about


    So after what seemed to be a century, what Ye Tian heard was a sad sigh that came into in his ears


    "Sigh…about that human, it''s a long story so be prepared"


    Saying this Apollo began telling him a story of what happened in the past


    ...... n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    In the past, just like Apollo said before Zeus would take him here as well as his other brothers in order to prepare their minds for the future


    Not only that but sometimes in order to punish them or scare them a bit, he would teleport away from the prison leaving them alone for a few hours if not days to fend for themselves


    Just listening to this, Ye Tuan couldn''t help but sigh


    *As expect of the almighty zeus''s parenting skills, truly one of a kind*


    *Thinking of his past actions now, doing something like abandoning a child in a prison full of ancient man immortal monsters was definitely something he could do*


    However, although Ye Tian thought this, he still didn''t say anything.


    Rather, after taking a quick nce at the ne he continued to focus on Apollo obviously wanting see where this story was headed


    And sure enough, much like to his expectation Apollos expiration waspletely out of the ordinary


    "So..yeah my father left me here a few times in order to scare me back when I was a child, unfortunately it was during this time I met ''it''"


    "And I say ''it'' because I can neither remember its name, face, voice, or any feature about it other than the fact that it exists"


    "And for a god such as I, it was obviously impossible to have memory problems so obviously ''it'' must have been the issue"


    Speaking of this, as Apollo mention the word ''it'' yet I an could feel the lyre vibrate obviously even know whatever it was still had a great effect on him


    Its that like before, Ye Tian remained silent waiting for him toplete his exnation


    And Apollo after calming down also guessed what Ye Tian thought and continued from where he left off


    "So yeah, onceing in contact with whatever it was wouldpletely mess up and change your cognition of it making it impossible for anyone to remember it urately"


    "The only thing that I remembered that it always made me y a game if dice with it, and the winner could get one thing from the looser"


    "And the ne of Delphi over there is the price I yed for having lost to it"


    "However it''s not like you can''t get it back, all you have to do is y whatever it is in a game of dice and you should be able to get it back"


    Hearing this, Ye Tian couldn''t help but sneer after listening to everything Apollo had to say


    First off, why would he risk his life battling some unknowable being in a game of dice for some ne that wasn''t even his?


    And sorry, but although Its functions might have been really useful but for the current Ye Tian it was something he could do without


    However, just as he was about to tell Apollo he wasn''t going to do it, a small cute voice sounded in his ear leaving him stunned


    "Master it''s me Ava, I just woke up and I already understand a bit of the current situation"


    "Do it, trust me you can''t lose"


    Listening to the voice brimming with confidence, it just crossed Ye Tians mind that Ava who should have been asleep digesting the gains from earlier had woken up


    And even though he couldn''t see her, Ye Tian could tell that she had received quite the upgrade based on his connection with the real world.


    Realising this, he couldn''t wait to get back home andpletely deal with matters at hand andunch the second phase of the game


    After all, If his supreme God temte was a hundred percent plus the backing of a whole world behind him, things like this he wouldn''t need to be too cautious


    If he had that strength, then he could just go and take it off the door without any hesitation


    Sadly, since that isn''t the case. He as no choice but to listen to Apollos idea and y dice with some unknown being


    Fortunately in turn, Ava just woke up making it a whole lot easier for him although he didn''t know how she would help


    "Alright Apollo I''ll help, however I''m not giving you the ne to hold not see till I feel like"


    "Not only that, but you have to promise me the promises that must be fulfilled whenever I ask, and don''t worry it''ll be something within you current capabilities"


    "Swear on you true name, to do both of these things and I''ll go get it for you right now" said Ye Tianas he looked at the lyre in his hand with a serious expression


    Yes Although he had already agreed to y the game with Ava in his mind, but Apollo in the lye didn''t know that


    Rather Ye Tian wants to use this as an opportunity once again to test how much he wanted this lyre back


    And if it was urgent as it was, Ye Tian promised himself that unless absolutely necessary he wouldn''t hand over the ne to him


    Unfortunately perhaps due to his sudden uneasiness after encountering ''it'' again


    Or the fact that he was teeming with excitement at the thought of getting his artefact back


    Apollo who had just heard Ye Tian say agreed didn''t think you much of it and swore on his true in turn strengthening Ye Tians decision to keep this item away from him


    "I the main God of the Greek pantheon #%^\ &@$?## swear on my true name to abide by those two conditions stated by the human Ye Tian just now"


    *Boom!*


    As soon as he finished speaking, with a loud boom both Ye Yian and Apollo sudden felt a thread connecting both of them from the void


    And from this thread both of them got a message, and that was that of any side of failed to keep their side of the deal then their true spirits would be dragged into the star realm left to sink for all eternity


    *haha, it''s been a while since I made a real name contract with someone and the process is still the same"


    "If any side fails to adhere their side of the bargain then a fate worth than death awaits them, it''s due to this that along with the oath on the river Stix and an oath on the Dao or the will of the universe are one of the most viscous and unbreakable oaths out there"


    Feeling the intangible line sticking out of his body into the void, Ye Tian knew that this was done by the will of the universe and the only way to get it cut was to fulfil his side of the deal


    So with this in mind, as someone who hated being tied down or held down as much as possible, Ye Tian had already decided to do his part as soon as possible


    In fact, had it not been for the close proximity for him to y the dice then he wouldn''t have even though of doing something like this


    So with that said, ignoring Apollo who was still happy and lost in thoughts fantasizing about getting his ne soon, Apollo headed toward the door and grabbed the ne right off


    *Booom!*


    Touching it, Ye Tian suddenly felt his mind seemed to explode as before he could react, he had unknowingly found himself in a pitch-ck room


    "Care to y a game?"


    "Care to y a game?"


    "Care to y a game?"


    These were the same words which kept repeating themselves in his ear as he appeared in this new environment


    *Booom!*


    Following another explosion, the currentndscapepletely dissapefed revealing apletely white room with a table and a two seats on opposite ends


    On both seats, two figures who looked exactly like each other sat staring with a smile on their faces


    "Who are you?" Asked Ye Tian as he felt the current situation was intresting


    And sure enough the figure who looked exactly like him also replied along with the same signature smirk


    "What are you talking about, I''m you?"


    "Now do you want to y a game or what?"


    Said the figure as he suddenly brought all kinds of board games to the tablepletely stunning Ye Tian.
