Chapter 89 - Im her lover (1/2)

Jin lifted up his head and looked at the sky while holding his tattered jacket on his left hand. The dark-green tattoo were still on his body as he still haven't deactivated it.

Debris of rocks kept falling and in just a minute it will crumble down.

”JIN!!”

Jin turned his head when he heard someone called his name. He looked over and saw Ur.

”Oh! Ur.” Jin force a smile out of his face. He still felt sad when he think Artemis.

Ur looked was surprised when she saw his sad smile. She felt her heart ache. She looked around and asked him.

”Where's Artemis?”

Jin lowered his head and said, ”She's gone.”

”What?” She opened her eyes widely. She finally understand why Jin was out of his character. She have a guess about what happened. Jin probably knew that Artemis was going to die.

She quickly dashed forward and embraced him.

Jin wasn't in the mood to enjoy this. He just silently lowered his head and let her hug him.

After a few moments, Jin opened his mouth and said, ”Let's go.”

Ur separate herself from him and nodded her head. Both of them went out of the ruins where they met Jellal and Mercphobia.

...

Hermes Familia and Jin's group decided to rest first before they go back to Orario. Nobody knew what happened inside the ruins except Jin's group. Every adventurers have respect and fear Jin's power. They we're in awe and didn't know how to approach them.

Ur talk to Jellal and Mercphobia about Artemis. She told them that she died and the ruins. Jin probably knew that she will die that's why he's acting a little strange.

Ur decided to talk to Hermes about it. She wants to know what really happened to Artemis. She have a feeling that Hermes probably know this. She couldn't talk to Jin right now in his condition. He's mourning about her death and she know it.

Late at night, she went to Hermes tent and talk to him. Hermes was surprised at her appearance but he knew what she want to talk. He recounted to her what he knew. About the real Artemis was already consumed by Antares long ago and have no way to save it. The Artemis they saw was only her remains.

Ur was shocked by what she heard. She thought that there's really no way to save Artemis as she was already consumed by monster Antares long ago. Antares was using her divinity so Jin have to stop her and the only thing that could kill Antares was the arrow.

She sighed deeply as she knew that she couldn't do anything about the situation right now.

Early in the morning the group travels back to Orario. After seven days they arrived at the labyrinth city. Hermes reported back to Ouranos after he gave Jin's group the reward. Jin refuse to take it at first but Jellal took it.

Jellal went out to order their custom clothes. Well, they have the same design like what they are wearing but they have fundamental buffs that will make them stronger. Of course he didn't forget the Thousand Abyss insignia in their clothes. He also got them a pass to enter the dungeon so they could earn money.

All of this was done by Jellal. Mercphobia was staying in his room and didn't even do anything. Jellal wonder if Mercphobia was going to become a shut-in dragon god. Ur was hunting the monsters to earn some money.
