Epilogue
3rd POV
Everything has settled down in the mortal realm. After the god of death was released, he then went on and claimed the death of the mortals. The souls that were restrained by Dino and Melinoe were the first that Wonwoo collected. He then went to where Ares was and collected the souls of the dead soldiers.
"It's about time you show up Wonwoo," Mingyu said as the people who called him celebrated their victory. Deimos and Phobos were now beside their father, but a small hint of smile can be seen on their face.
"I apologize for the inconvenience, Mingyu" Wonwoo apologized. Mingyu only smiled and return and slung an arm around the death god's shoulder.
"No need to apologize, I knew you'd come anyways" he assured him.
Wonwoo, together with Macaria went on and collected the souls that the other gods restrained in his absence. As the god of death collected everything that there was to collect, they returned to the underworld.

The god of prophecy sat on his throne humming a new song, he would soon bless the mortals. Suddenly, he stopped and stood up. He walked towards an overlooking window and stared at the mortal realm. His brows furrowed, something big was going to happen, sooner or later.
"I see that the titan lord still has something in his sleeve" he whispered to himself. He still did not know what it was, but he was sure there was. He returned to humming the new song he was making. There was no use in thinking about it when it was still not a threat to the new future.

In the depths of the underworld, an agonizing scream can be heard on a steep hill. Sisyphus pushed a large boulder on the hill. Beads of blood ran down his face as occasional harpies would scratch him. He was far from the top of the hill and the boulder seems to grow heavier with each roll.
It was the punishment Cheol, Jeonghan, and Jisoo decided for him. To roll a large boulder uphill for all eternity. Little did Sisyphus know, every time he nears the summit, the boulder rolls back down.
Although too late, Sisyphus realized one thing. Never offend the gods even with the influence of the titan lord. He continued his painful punishment regretting what he has done, while another harpy came down to scratch him with its claws.
Macaria's POV
After dropping the last of the souls near the River of Styx, Wonwoo suddenly grabbed my hand and pulled me to his arms. Without a word, he flew us up above and back to the mortal realm. I looked at him questioningly, he noticed my stare and simply answered.
"Trust me" he continued flying. I noticed we were nearing a mortal temple and then he descended.
"Where are we?" I questioned, I look around and realized where we were, a temple of Hera. I stared at him, mouth ajar, I wanted him to confirm my suspicion.
Wonwoo stared at him and laughed. It was such a light laugh that made me feel comforted and assured. He approached me and held my hands, still not saying a word.
"Questions are running around my head Wonwoo, you better answer them" I half threatened, too much was happening for one day, too much for me.
"Well, how do you expect me to answer them if you don't ask" he replied. This man... I swear to the gods, if not for the life-threatening situation he was in earlier, I would have had strangled him.
