King of Underworld

Chapter 172

I returned to the Underworld and watched as Thanatos’ avatar dragged Paris into my realm.

Soon, the sinner arrived in the Hall of Audience, where he tried to bow and lower his head to the ground. But upon seeing my face, he recoiled in shock.

"Ha... Hah! L-Lord Pluto..."

"Do you finally understand who I am?"

"Y-yes, of course! Lord of the Underworld!"

"Your crime lies in exploiting the blessing of the goddess Aphrodite to steal another man’s wife, ultimately igniting the flames of war."

"...!"

"Because of this war, tens of thousands of mortals will perish. You will bear the full weight of that sin."

"B-but I... I didn’t mean—"

"Silence. You will not be given the chance to make excuses."

Paris opened his mouth wordlessly, unable to speak, as I pronounced his sentence.

Fearing the punishment I might impose, he clasped his hands together and begged for mercy. But as the god of the Underworld and the arbiter of fairness, I could not be swayed.

"Your actions led to the theft of another man’s wife. But beyond that, your choices resulted in a catastrophic war, leaving countless dead. The burden of those sins lies solely on you."

"...!!!"

"Thus, I sentence you to carry stones in the Underworld for 100 years, your memory erased."
