THE TASK OF HELL
Half-God Man*

They speak in English. Translation.

Of course the appearance of King D who was still alive, made the smiles of the spirits expand. The handsome man immediately ran to his grandmother. However, Tobias quickly hugged Javier's son which made all spirits even King D stunned.

"Eh?" tobias' shock because his body was pierced.

"Hehehe, he forgot he was a spirit" Axton chuckled.

"Hey, Dad. You ... look handsome" said King D, flipping his body with a smile.

Tobias looked puzzled as he looked at his two translucent hands. However, King D's smile made him develop the lips that had been pouting.

"You .. look great" Tobias said.

"Yes, I'm an adult. I'm .. Really, for God's sake. I am very happy to meet you guys even though .. already in the form of spirits," he said again seeing one by one the spirits in front of him.

Vesper wanted to cry. A stroke of luck since King D could see them. The spirits almost used the bodies and served double punishment.

"You .. look young. How could? Should you be 200 years old?" ask Vesper in wonder.

"Hem. Ever heard of the term ... demigod man? Yeah, that's what happened to me, Oma."

Practically, King D's reply made the eyes of the spirits glare.

"You ... what? How come?" axton asked.

"Hem, the story is long" he replied, turning his eyes away.

"We like long, boring stories" Tobias said, to the smiles of all spirits.

"We came all the way here across the sea and the land just to see you, D. Don't disappoint us" Antony said.

"Hem, alright," replied King D with a smile as he sat on a black floating chair. The spirits stared at King D intently waiting for his story. Until the familiar figure in front made him doubtful. "sorry. You .... Is ... Jonathan's? Uncle Jonathan?" asked King D until he looked up at the man in front of him because he looked like Jonathan.

"No, he's Jonathan's rancid father. Erik Benedict," replied Tobias ketus who made King D's eyes glare.

"really? Oh, what an honor to meet you, sir. Too bad, I can't shake your hand" said King D, standing up and reaching out, but then he put it in his pocket.

"I'm also happy to meet you, D" said Erik who got a smile from Javier's son.

"Hey, we're waiting for your story" Tobias tipped with a sour face.

King D who knew enough of the character of his stepfather smiled faintly. The black-haired man began to tell his life after being left dead by Vesper. Antony looks sad when he knows his loved ones have died even some in a sad way. Axton is also upset when he finds out that Nandra married Rohan.

Tobias who had to go back to hearing about Lysa's referral with the Sultan made him almost go berserk. The spirits also told of their journey until they could find it. King D was stunned and moved by the efforts of the spirits to look for him. However, King D looked confused when Eko was told like an angel because he had never seen the winged figure.

"I almost died when I had to defeat Sengkuni who deliberately made humans and animals exposed to monster serum. His goal, he wanted to become the sole leader and conquer the remaining living beings under his leadership later. However, it was all believed by Sandara's aunt and Jordan's uncle because ..he was sick," King D said as he tapped his temple on his index finger.

"You mean ... mental illness?" asked Erik to make sure. King D nodded slowly.

"Eh, wait. You said that Sengkuni? Who's she?" axton was confused.

"Oh. He's the son of Sandara and Raden."

"What! Isn't .. they ... cousins? Fellow sisters?" asked Vesper trying to remember his family's genealogy.

"Insemination, Mom. Sandara finally married Jordan," replied King D, who made Boleslav hold his chest.

"Doctor!" axton shouted frantically who joined his friend because Antony was about to collapse.

THE PLAQUE!!

"Agh! What the fuck are you!" screeched Axton because his head was hit hard.

"I'm dead. My heart is not working either" said Boleslav with glaring eyes.

"OK, continue, D," Axton's pinta that makes all spirits hold a smile.

"so. A lot of unexpected things. I was so confused where to tell you," he replied, exhaling deeply because of the complicated story of his life journey.

"On you getting a long life. You haven't told me that part yet" Erik recalled.

King D immediately sat down while pointing at Erik with a nod. "You're right, sorry."

"I'm sorry" said Tobias, who made Erik's forehead wrinkle.

"I was given a blood injection by someone. At the time, I was not sure what I was hearing or feeling. However, Irina said that the man who gave her blood to me was a demigod. So, even though my Mythology's unique abilities were taken away, the ability to live long, be able to see delicate creatures, and quickly recover from minor injuries or illnesses, remained in the body," he replied, leaving everyone stunned.

"A little beyond my reasoning and logic, but .. okay, I believe you're young and alive. Go ahead" pinta Erik.

Just as King D was about to continue the story, there was suddenly the sound of azan in the room where they were gathered. Suddenly, it surprised everyone because it had not heard the call of worship for the Muslim.

"sorry. Can you guys just hold on a second? God called me" he said politely.

"Sure!" answer everyone with a nod.

Vesper seemed moved to look at his grandson who was solemnly performing the magrib prayer in the room. While Axton and others, choose to fly out of the room to see the condition of the magnificent palace that was not treated, for some reason. King D lives there. Vesper shed tears as he heard the prayer that King D prayed for him after performing the prayer.

Vesper could feel the peace in his heart. The screams of torture in hell seemed to disappear because of the sending of prayers. Before long, Tobias, Axton, Antony, and Erik appear. They stared at King D.

"Are you also prayed by him?" ask Vesper.

The spirits nodded. Tobias came to King D with a sad face. The man was not disturbed when sitting down with his hands up while offering prayers. His eyes fell facing the prayer mat. Axton and others were even pensive to see King D as emitting an aura like Eko, but not as bright as the bald man.

"Somehow I feel at home here" said Axton, sitting behind King D's back with a smile as he bent his legs and hugged.

"Perhaps because he was diligent in worship, I survived the torment of hell for a while," Tobias said, leaving the spirits silent.

The spirits were swept away by what King D did after performing the prayer. The man taught. Who would have thought that King D's voice was so melodious. The spirits closed their eyes as if they were lulled. Their bodies floated inside the room around King D like people were asleep.

"Eh?" shock King D as he closes his book and puts it on the closet shelf.

He frowned when he saw Vesper and the others' spirits seem at peace with their bodies floating and eyes closed. As King D was enjoying his banana while staring at the spirits in front of him in silence, suddenly a capsule-shaped device sounded. King D rushed over to the device that was placed on the table and held it. Instantly, a noise like that alarm stopped. However, the deafening sound made the spirits awaken.

"Sorry," said King D grimacing heartlessly.

"Oh, what's going on?" axton was confused.

"Mm, I'm not so sure. It's just, you guys are kind of asleep. Dan .. sorry. I have to move these bananas immediately to be delivered" he said politely.

"You become a trader or what?" ask Tobias astonished.

King D smiled with a nod. The man then operated a banana-filled robot-tub with a handler in the form of a watch on his left wrist to be set towards somewhere. Vesper and the other spirits were curious, following the steps of King D. Until they saw a vehicle like a truck waiting in the palace garage. The tubs move automatically to lower the load. King D swiftly closed the tub of his truck and started the engine.

"sorry. What if I tell you a story while delivering these bananas? I was waiting," he said.

"of course. I'm sorry, if we're interrupting your time," Vesper replied.

"It's not a big deal, Oma. Come on," take King D, who is sitting in the back of the truck with bananas.

The spirits gathered to hear the story. The truck without wheels was moving quite fast and stable. The truck moves automatically according to the route that has been set to the city center where the day turns night. The lights illuminated the land filled with buildings. It looks like stars are scattered on the ground. The spirits were stunned because they did not expect that they had been in the palace long enough to not realize that the sun had left.
