Chapter 280: Prisoner

Hiss...

In the night, atop the hill, specially made incense burned slowly.

The smoke wafted through the air, dispersing and gathering to form various shapes.

It seemed as if confined by some mysterious force, all the smoke was constrained within a certain range. Whenever it drifted to a certain height, the smoke would vanish into thin air, as though disappearing into another space.

Suppressing her unease, Demeter was certain that the smoke before her was not affected by any supernatural powers, yet it still exhibited this peculiarity.

Thus, eliminating other possibilities, the reason for this phenomenon could only be one.

"Indeed."

"Just as you think."

"These are the rules."

Snap—

The smoke dispersed, transforming into an illusory portal.

As the two voices, still somewhat juvenile, followed one after the other, Volos and Eros stepped through the door in succession.
