In Ancient Crete, each year, 7 males and 7 females enter the Labyrinth and King Minos uses them to feed the Minotaur, a terrible monster. Some lucky heroes manage to escape the beast and decide to collaborate to find the exit to the Labyrinth and kill the King.
They only have two things in common: they would do anything to achieve their goal and they are haunted by a girl who died in that same Labyrinth some time ago. Will they manage to kill the King and will their torture end?
But, most importantly, will all of them come back alive?

𝙐𝙣𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚///An Unexpected Crossover
"Pretty little god," Sukuna murmured, one hand dragging down Hermes' throat, "all dressed up and twitching like a bird that doesn't know it's already been caught." He shouldn't want him. Hermes is the God of Trickery. Quick with a blade, quicker with his tongue. Ryomen Sukuna is the King of Curses. Bloody. Ancient. Unhinged. When Olympus sends Hermes to investigate the crumbling edge of the world, he expects ruins and silence. Not a monster with four arms, two mouths, and no understanding of personal space. "You flirt like you murder," Hermes said. "Messy. Loud. Always leaving a mark." "I like leaving marks." Sukuna grinned. "Especially on gods who act like they can't beg." They should be at each other's throats. But every fight tastes like foreplay. Every threat sounds like a promise. And every time Hermes says no, he means try harder. "You want to be worshipped?" Sukuna hissed in his ear. "Then get on your knees and earn it." He was supposed to kill the monster. Not let it ruin him. Order vs Chaos. Desire vs Duty. God vs Curse. One kiss away from war. One strike away from obsession. HermesxSukuna

What if you discovered a world like no other, but knew no way back? And yet, the only way to stay- and survive- was by leaving your past self behind, body and mind?

The four girls, whose paths would have never crossed, find themselves in the midst of a mysterious railroad tunnel. With an inkling for adventure, they enter, only to emerge in a world straight out of a fantasy novel, a country called Alysia. It isn't long, however, before they find themselves in the middle of a decades-long Civil War between the forces of Heaven- Arcadia- and Hell- Abaddonia... and realize that going home isn't going to be as simple as they believe.
