Chapter 9: The Poison of God

Border of The Realm of the Dead...

The foursome of devils appeared near the realm of the dead, the place where Hades, the Greek god of the underworld, the Grim Reapers, and the souls of the dead reside.

Lord Lucifer had given him a magic compass that will guide him through The Realm of The dead to Cocytus and back.

The first thing Naruto noticed was the lack of life around them; even the natural energy felt dead. The blonde swore to himself he wouldn't use it because it might have some serious side effects.

Well, he still had his magic, ki, chakra and touki, so he had plenty of power. He looked at the team; Grayfia, Mio and Maria, all in combat gear, ready for war if needed.

Naruto turned to them and spoke. "Okay, now that we're in the realm of the dead, we need to pass through it quickly without drawing any attention to ourselves." The blonde said.

The three she-devils nodded as they set out through the realm of Hades; as they passed, they saw some Grim Reapers, but they quickly hid from their sight.

The Grim Reapers had the appearance of skeletons wearing dark robes; from what Naruto knew, they all had Death Scythes that had a powerful curse that would shorten the lifespan of anyone who was cut by them.

When they were about halfway across the realm of hades, a group of five male Grim Reapers somehow noticed their presence and began to trail them. The Satanchia heir knew he had to act fast before they could call for backup; he quickly created a barrier using sealing Jutsu mixed with rune magic, covering the area and trapping everyone inside.

Inside Barrier...

Grayfia looked at the barrier and was impressed by it; it would take a powerful ultimate class ability to break it. She assumed it not only hid their presence but also kept the enemies from escaping, allowing them to eliminate them without fear of being found out.

Mio and Maria already knew about the blondes' abilities, so they didn't even give the barrier a glance; instead, they jumped at the Grim Reapers with their magic ready to destroy them as quickly as possible.

The Grim Reapers dodged their attack by teleporting away, leaving afterimages that the Satanchia maids went through; however, They quickly recovered as the Grim Reapers appeared a few feet in front of them.

"Who the hell are you trespassers?" one grim reaper shouted.

"We have no obligation to answer any of your questions," the blonde said. "Just kindly die for us."

"Screw you, bastards," the other Grim Reaper growled before teleporting behind the blonde with his death scythe ready to cut the blonde in half.

Naruto reacted by using Shadow Walking behind the Grim Reaper and slammed a Spiral Ball into its back, making it scream in pain as the attack consumed it.

The other Grim Reapers jumped at the blonde when they saw what had happened to their comrade, but Grayfia created a wall of ice to block their path, and Mio used her gravity magic to pin them to the ground.

Maria attacked the pinned reapers by embedding her fists with her gravity magic and bashed their skulls in one after another until they were all dead, except for the one who had taken the spiral ball from their blonde master.

The last living Grim Reaper was cursing them, swearing it would kill them and get its revenge. As injured as it was from taking the blonde's attack, it was trying to get to its feet. Taking a look at the creature, Naruto could see it clearly; it was a living skeleton, and it looked almost comical in the way it moved.
