To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 74: Expectation, Huxian the Lust

Floor 2 / Eve Horizon

Shangri-La Territory /

This place is a place of dream to all Hunters. Lovely, beautiful place. Heaven hidden from the world.

A place located above the cloud. A place that has no day. Only the night shrouded in stars and the charm of the Apsaras.

Legend says; afternoon envious of the beauty of the goddess, the owner of Shangri-La. Because of that, it never appeared in that place again. Making the territory known as the world of a thousand nights.

A place that ordinary people can not visit. Bring at least 100k cash to enter, so that you can satisfy your desires.

Palace of the Goddess /

Once every 24 hours, the goddess of the Shangri-La owner will show herself in the top balcony of the palace.

Her appearance is always awaited by the residents of Shangri-La.

Huxian is her name. Goddess of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Her beauty is unbeatable by anyone. Even the world will bow to her when they see her beauty.

But she doesn't want world authority. Therefore, whenever she showed herself, she would come out covering her face with a silk cloth.

"Lady Huxian!"

Everyone shouted that one name as she showed herself.

When she came out, she would wave to everyone.

That one small gesture gave off a feeling of joy, satisfaction, and aroused the desire of all who saw it.

After five seconds of inhaling the outside air, the Goddess returned to the room, which believed to be her private room.

Rumor has it that the Goddess has never been in touch, or even face to face with a man.

The palace said that Huxian was looking for a man suitable for her. But already a thousand people have volunteered, and none of them have caught the attention of the Goddess. Until certain news stirs the entire Floor.

[Family: Greedy Dragon Family. Head of Family: Greedy Young Master. Territory of Powers: 1st Floor. Today it has legally been established with witnesses of the entire West Station's Abyssal Hunter.]

[The entire area of today's 1st Floor being purchased under the name of Greedy Young Master]

"Ars~"

Huxian muttered that one name while asleep in the wide bed covered with blankets and pillows.

Knock-knock.

Someone comes into the room carrying two servants.

"Lady Huxian."

What came was the Chief Guardian of the Palace, as well as the Chief Servant and Huxian's Personal Servant.

The woman sighed. "Again, you dirty the blankets."

Two servants closed their eyes and stuffed their ears. Little did they know, the Goddess of Shangri-La was masturbating.

"Leave me alone, Hera. You will destroy the shadow of Lord Ars, who is touching me. "

The Female Butler / Hera walked closer to the bed, then lifted Huxian like a cat.

"But we must prepare you to welcome prospective applicants."

They began to change clothes and make up Huxian in the curtains.

"Who came this time?" asked Huxian.

"Jiang He. Merchants, who supply our food needs. He came for the third time with anew Dungeon Treasure - "

"Huuuhh ~"

Huxian's sigh told her that she was not interested in that man.

"Most importantly, you have to respect his arrival. Without him, Shangri-La would be hard pressed to survive in this damned place."

"Yes, mam ~"

Shangri-La Palace / Heavenly Palace Garden

A garden lit by artificial Sagittarius stars. In the middle of the garden, there is a fountain with a statue of a man with a stick painted white.

In the roundabout pool area, there are six Apsaras dancers who make the atmosphere become pleasant.

In the north of the park, prospective applicants' banquets were held.

The prospective applicant this time is one of the few wealthy merchants on the 2nd Floor, Jiang He. It was the third time he had come to try to propose to Huxian. Even though he had been rejected twice, his desire to get the most beautiful woman in the world did not fade.

He is a bald man in his 40s. Both of his wrists were covered in jewelery and gold. He wears a really flashy outfit and looks heavy with all his accessories. Every time he smiled, there are several gold teeth glistening on his face.

Jiang He came with 2 Diamond Hunters with him. They are two of the eight strongest Individuals on the 2nd Floor.

"Lady Huxian will enter the garden!"

The announcement of the host's arrival made Jiang He's heart racing. He rose from chair, then faced the host's entourage.

Hera was first out the door. Followed by four private Apsaras of the palace. Then came out, a luxurious stretcher carried by four men; their faces covered by cloth.

The stretcher carried the host, Huxian, in it. The luxurious stretcher being sealed with seven layers of curtain cloth. Even like not allowing air from outside to enter.

Four men brought the stretcher to face the guest, then knelt down. With that; the stretcher is still being lifted, the event will begin.

The four palace personal servants stood at four points next to the stretcher.

Servant 1 put her head in the first layer of stretcher cloth, then said: "I say thank to you for coming again, who have not given up to praise me."

The message came from Huxian and delivered from the servants.

"I-I-I also thank you for being allowed to enter this palace again!"

Jiang He being too excited. Despite communicating indirectly with the goddess, he was very happy.

Servant 2 put her head into the first layer of stretcher cloth, then said: "The Dungeon Treasure that you gave, was brought directly from the 3rd Floor. Are you sure you want to give such expensive treasure as a gift for your arrival this time?"

"O-of course! I will give you everything! That's why-!"

One of Jiang He's bodyguards tapped him on the shoulder. Suggests that the boss to not being so excited.

Servant 3 put her head in the first layer of stretcher cloth, then said: "Then I thank you and accept your gift."

"Y-yes, it's a very expensive treasure that I pulled from the 3rd Floor, you can have it."

Jiang He replied with a hint of disappointment. Huxian will only thank every gift. As expensive or as good as any gifts you give, she will only say thank you.

Servant 4 put her head into the first layer of stretcher, then said: "Out of respect for your time and gift, please enjoy our banquet today."

All the dishes on the table are expensive dishes that will cost Platinum Hunter a month's work. Plus all the dishes decorated with silk fabrics which give the impression that they are the same as the Apsaras.

Two of Jiang He's Guards were given seats too, to enjoy the banquet.

For Huxian, Servant 1 takes 1 plate, then takes 1 apple to serve to Huxian. The plate with apples served with another servant, opening the 7 layers of cloth so that Servant 1's hand could enter.

The plates are taken by Huxian. The Four Servants returned to their positions.

Hera sat down with the chair given to her. "All right, from now on, I will accompany you."

In the banquet session, Hera took over. Jiang He had already passed that session twice, so he felt disappointed. However, Jiang He's bodyguards who took turns felt excited.

Hera is a 190 cm tall woman. Wearing light clothes like a palace knight. With her short hair and tough face, she has made a lot of male Hunters fall in love with her. Some of them are Jiang He's bodyguards.

"Tell me, Lady Hera, don't you open applications too?"

"Yes, you must be lonely guarding this palace alone, right?"

Hera is a Legend Hunter. On a note, she was part of a party that fought alongside the Staff Saint. With the beauty and courage of a warrior, it was only natural that strong male Hunters would target her.

"I swear by Staff Saint. My soul and body will only be dedicated to Lady Huxian. Because of that, I'm sorry, we rejected the three of you."

It was the first time Jiang He's Guards participated in the event. So only that time they were rejected outright. But for Jiang He, who had sacrificed his time and so much money, it was the third time that his heart got broken.

"Boss?"

Jiang He stood up from his chair. Then ran towards the outer gate, shouting: "Just kill me already!"

"Hey-hey, are you a kid?"

"Don't die yet, you haven't handed over all your holdings certificates!"

The group of guests left feeling disappointed.

It was the 1001th proposal that the Goddess Shangri-La rejected.

"Aaaaauuuuuuhhhhh ~"

Huxian sank into the sea of bed covers.

"You aren't a cat. Stop acting like one."

"I can't heeellp iiittt ~"

There were only the two of them in the room at that time. So Huxian can act whatever she wants without having to worry about other people's eyes.

"I'm so horny~ But I don't want to give my body to lowly people who don't know class," said Huxian while touching her body. "Aaahhhh~ My Lord, Ars, when will you come to take my body and soul~"

Ars is the only man who catches her eye. Even though Huxian only knew things about that man from gossip. Huxian feels that she is destined only for Ars, the Greedy Young Master.

Huxian only has one illustration of the man's face.

Black and white illustration depicting a man smiling arrogantly and greedily. Then, in the eye area, painted with a special red rose colour. Shows that man's dragon eyes.

"Information says that man has returned to 2nd Floor. And is currently at Adam's Root Station."

All of Huxian's tails trembled at that information. Her ears couldn't calm down. "Oh, I see." Huxian got up from the bed. Showing unusual gestures.

"Then I will go to him myself!"

She moved like lightning toward the balcony.

"Not that fast, young woman."

But Hera matched Huxian's speed and caught her by the collar.

"Let me go~!"

Huxian struggled. But she couldn't beat the strength of a legendary warrior.

"Kya~!"

Hera threw Huxian back on the bed. Then sit between the room and the balcony, with an invisible wind chair.

"The last sin, the sin of Greed. With that boy's appearance, you sinners are complete. But his buying of the 1st Floor worries me."

"Doesn't that show that he is a great guy, and suits me!?"

Hera ignored Huxian's defense of the man who was still a mystery.

"Soul Saint Servant; The Charity, is spreading her love on this Floor. In Staff Saint's record, Greed is the opponent of Charity. Because of that, I would like to see our Greedy Young Master's steps in dealing with his opponent."

Hera has expectations regarding Ars. Unlike her Guardian, Huxian only wanted Ars as soon as possible.

"I can't stand it~ Ars, come quickly to me~ Hug me~ Touch me~ Own me completely~ Free me from this endless desire!"
