Chapter 2351
Unexpectedly, an unusual world appeared in front of Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton, almost blinding them with glaring brightness. They could see an endless sea of red spider lilies before them, where each glistened vividly in full bloom.
Although it was currently autumn in Atlantis, supposedly the most comfortable season of the year, it now felt as cold as winter.
Bone-chilling breezes blew from every direction.
Xyla and Stanley were freezing and both shocked by the peculiar scene they were seeing.
The elevator incident was strange enough, but whatever this was made it even weirder.
There were no longer in the real world.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
According to myths, red spider lilies only grew along the pathway to hell.
Xyla couldn't help but think they had gone to the Underworld somehow.
Did the elevator take them all the way down to hell?
She couldn't help but gasp at the thought.
Stanley frowned as he gazed at his wife. "Don't be afraid. No matter where this place is, I will protect you."
She nodded but still couldn't help feeling restless.
A golden ray of light suddenly appeared before them, and they began experiencing a headache right after.
Various memories began appearing in their minds regarding Betty Starmount, the nine-tailed demon fox, and Sophie Kenwick.
They remembered everything that happened with the nine-tailed demon fox in their past lives and how much Sophie had sacrificed for them.
Every memory flooded their minds, making their heads throb with the massive amount of information.
Xyla could barely stand as she cradled her head in her hands and leaned against Stanley while the memories kept flooding back.
The whole process took approximately one hour to complete before they managed to retrieve all their lost memories.
She grabbed her husband's hand in despair, Honey, I-I can remember some things that seemed very real.
They were about Sophie
the
nine-tailed demon fox..."
She was drenched in sweat as she spoke. It was challenging to process that much information for an ordinary human.
She felt physically and mentally weakened.
He was in a similar state.
"Yeah. You don't have to tell me," he interjected before Xyla could finish her sentence. "I received the same information you did." Within seconds, they both felt an aching sensation in their hearts concerning Sophie.
She was a silly girl who made the fatal decision for their family.
Soon, scenes of the young girl going through hell played in their minds.
Sophie was tortured in various ways by being cut, burnt, frozen, and skinned alive. She had suffered in great pain in every scene. Xyla began crying earnestly, feeling as heartbroken as her husband.
She collapsed to her knees on the ground with both hands holding her throbbing head as she looked up at Stanley, who seemed lost. "Honey, I saw Sophie being tortured in hell. Did you see all that?"
He could only nod wordlessly, his expression tormented.
"This foolish girl," Xyla went on, her voice trembling with every sob. "She made & deal like that to find and kill the nine-tailed demon fox for us. That was so stupid.
"Why would she do that for us? Was it worth it?"
