I- I thought I died, it's wasn't a great feeling but at least I could rest now, right? But something is dragging me. What should I do? I'm tired, I can't even get up.
I opened my eyes, buildings were burning, smoke everywhere, the sky was red, like it was bleeding itself. And then I saw 'It'. A three headed dog like creature, my left leg was in his mouth, bleeding.
"What the hell!"
I tried to get up but it was all in vain. Then a message popped up.
********************
SYSTEM RECOMMENDS USING THE SPELL: GOD'S GRACE.
********************
Where was I? Why were the messages popping up everywhere? Am I inside 'The King's grave'?
Just then another message popped up.
********************
PLEASE TAKE THE RECOMMENDED ACTION QUICKLY. OTHERWISE YOUR HEALTH POINTS WILL DRAIN AND YOU'LL LOSE YOUR LIFE.
********************
What does it mean I'll lose my life, I already died once! what was going on!? I can wonder about it later, first I've got to heal up. Who knows what would happen if I die again?
"God's Grace!" I exclaimed.
Suddenly, my body was filled with energy. I kicked that three headed dog in the head and it finally let go of my leg, which healed quickly.
"Arfoooo!" The dog started howling and a minute later I was surrounded by hundreds of such dogs.
"Woah! What should I do now?"
*PING*
************************
CERBERUS KIN IS A SPECIES WHICH IS IMMUNE TO FIRE BUT WEAK TO WATER AND WIND.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
SUMMON ARABELLA, THE QUEEN OF MERMAIDS. AND USE THE SPELL: WATERSPOUT.
***********************
Only if this system was half as useful as this in the game. I thought.
"I Summon thee, Queen of Mermaids, Arabella."
Just like it happened with Hades, a pool of water appeared in front of me. And someone rose from within.
"Your command, my lord." said the Queen of Mermaids in her ever feminine voice. She was the most beautiful and graceful creature God had ever made. Her blonde hair, her blue eyes and her sparkling green tail. The graphics of the game didn't do justice to her beauty, but now when I got to see her myself, she looked like a Goddess.
"Your command, my liege?" Arabella said, interrupting my thoughts.
"Umm... Could you get rid of the dogs, please?" I awkwardly replied.
"Whatever my lord wishes, it will be done." She replied bowing her head. She then turned towards the hundreds of Cerberus kin that surrounded us, and began chanting her spell.
"In the name of the lord of seas, I banish the foes before me. Come forth: WATERSPOUT."
Just then out of nowhere, a tornado made of water erupted from the ground. Those among the Cerberus who came in contact with waterspout were torn to shreds in a mere moment. The others however ran with tails between their legs.

I grabbed 30 Cerberus fangs from my inventory, threw them on the ground and chant: "To the spirit of the fallen creatures, heed my call and come forth: I summon thee, CERBERUS KNIGHT! "
Suddenly the entire surrounding started vibrating, a white light filled the surrounding area. When it all got over, a 9 feet tall, three headed dog was standing before me, it saw me then bowed down to me. Not gonna lie, he looked vicious and scary, but the moment I touched his left head, he started wagging his tail like a normal puppy.
"Good boy, aren't ya?"
"Woof!" All three heads simultaneously barked.
"I can't just call you Cerberus now can I?" I looked at him, all the heads were staring at me, "Let's call you Bruno! You like it? "
"WOOF!"
"Bruno it is then."
