The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 232 - Dimitri's Decision-part One-



It was late at night, as usual Artemis was at Alfonso's side, looking at the two moons on the sky.

"I wonder if we will be able to go back to our original world" Though Artemis.

As a goddess, and not just her, every god that the system brought, knew that they weren't on earth, well, that's not how they called it, however, you get the idea.

"It seems that everything is good here, might as well go and sightseeing a little, however…" Artemis looked at Alfonso and her eyes turned red.

"I will left a mark of the hunter just in case" Said Artemis.

He turned invisible and went out of the room.

In fact, this wasn't the first time that Artemis did this, she liked to walk on the night, especially when there is moonlight.

She went out of the manor and walked in a slow peace on the wealthy district of Peringrer.

The road was dark and there was a lot of fog.

However, for Artemis, this weather was actually quite nice.

"I wonder why I like more this gloomy weather rather than the sunny one" Though Artemis.

She walked out of the wealthy district, not without amusing herself with some sights. Dude to her powers her hearing sense it's at least ten times stronger than normal humans.

She didn't had the tendency to eavesdropping, however, to be alert, she couldn't shut down her senses.

The voice of a man and a woman entered in her ears.

"Mr. Kyle, are you sure that kid won't suspect anything?"

"I am sure, he has been buying medicine since three months ago, I make sure that any of those were the real one, however, I put a little bit of these little baby inside of each bottle"

"What's that?"

"I don't know, however, the young master said that this little buddy would make that old woman's soul power deteriorate, a few more doses and her body won't be able to maintain the use of her powers as a champion, she would be forced to not use her powers, and, the death disease will kill her, the best thing about this is, nobody would know how this happen"

"Brilliant"

"Poor little boy, he is killing his own mother without him noticing it, a shame, a shame indeed, oh, I have to go, that little boy will one of my men another doses in an hour, I need to give him this bottle"

"You are even charging it for that!?"

"Haha, of course I do"

A door closing out sounded and everything went quiet.

Artemis, who listened all of this, though deeply.

"Humans, I always thought that they were somehow different from us, however, it seems that we are more alike than what I originally though" Though Artemis.

She walked towards the house and saw a shadow walking in the darkness.

Artemis's eyes turned red and followed the man from behind.

.....................…

Dimitri went out of his house in silence, in fear that he would wake his mom up. He went out and walked on the dark streets.

He get to one alley and waited for some time. After ten or more minutes, a man appeared in the alley, he was wearing a hat and a black outfit.

"You are late" Said Dimitri.

"Its hard to find this you know" Said the man.

"You are the first person to ever tell me to meet you in such circumstances" Said Dimitri.

"The fact that you came here, proves that you are that desperate" Said the man.

"You know that every scammer that sold me a fake dose was giving a good beating, right?" Said Dimitri.

"Your nickname is the punisher between drug sellers, hehe" Said the man.

"…Yours… it's the good stuff?" Said Dimitri.

"Yep, but first thing… the money?" Asked the man.

Dimitri took out a few golden coins from his pocket and the man smiled, he passed two bottles to Dimitri, one was red colored and the other one was blue colored.

"The red one is the medicine that you require" Said the man.

"Good" Said Dimitri.

He turned around to leave.

"You don't want to know about the second bottle" Said the man.

"You rats, the only thing that isn't fake in your products is the bad stuff" Said Dimitri.

The man chuckle and left the alley, the only one who stood there was Dimitri, who looked at the red bottle and with some hesitation, he swallowed it.

His head suddenly felt lighter and he smiled stupidly.

"This gets through the day" Though Dimitri.

He sat down on the alley and throw the bottle to one side. He didn't notice though, that someone grabbed the bottle.

The person open up the empty bottle and smell it.

"Hallucinogens, how boring"

Artemis kept the bottle and looked in silence at the young man. The young man stood there for a couple of hours before standing up and going back home.

Artemis followed closely behind.

...................................................….

Dimitri, who was feeling a little numb, entered his house and lied down on his sofa. He looked at the direction of his mother, who was lying on the bed.

"Damn it!" Though Dimitri.

He was tired, he had to work all day long, just to buy the medicine that his mother needed, however, every time, the medicine would result in a scam.

At first, he didn't let that affect him, however, over time, everything piled up.

So, he had to find a way to relax.

That's when he met a merchant that sold him this small elixir called "paradise".

He knew that he shouldn't buy it.

It wasn't right.

It was just an escape from reality.

However… an escape from reality its exactly what he needed.

"My heroine is infected with an incurable disease, my father betray us for just a couple of coins, all the nation wants my mom death, and I have to work almost all day just to buy something that isn't gonna work" Lamented Dimitri.

Life was too though.

This was on his mind all the time.

However, he couldn't help but tear up when he looked at her mother on her bed, sleeping.

"I am so sorry mom" Murmured Dimitri.

He grabbed the bottle and put at the side of her mother drawer.

He sat down at the foot of her bed and prepared to sleep.

"Tomorrow, I have to wake up early" Though Dimitri.

However, just as he was about to close his eyes, he suddenly shiver.

"What… what is that!?" Though Dimitri alarmed.

On the darkness of his living room, he saw a pair of red eyes looking at him.

A silhouette emerged from the darkness.

It was a good looking young man with long black hair.

Dimitri was to ask him who he was, however, he notice that something moved above him.

"Mom!?" Asked Dimitri.

"It seems that you didn't come here to kill us, young man" Said Mirana.

The young man looked at her with a strange expression, and then, he looked back at Dimitri.

"My name is Artemis" Said Artemis.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Mirana, he is my only son, Dimitri" Said Mirana with politeness.

Dimitri who was utterly confused, looked back at his mom.

"Mom-"

"Son, watch what are you gonna say, that young man over there, is a champion" Said Mirana.

"A-a-a champion?" Though Dimitri.

"You are wrong, I am not exactly a champion, however, I guess you can call me one" Answered Artemis.

"Are you lying to this old woman, young man?" Asked Mirana.

"I never lie" Said Artemis.

"That's a relieve then, I have been lied too much this couple of years" Said Mirana.

"What are you doing here?" Asked Dimitri.

"I followed you" Said Artemis.

"Followed me!?" Said Dimitri.

"Since when!?" Though Dimitri.

"If you follow my son, you must have something you want, don't you?" Asked Mirana.

"Not exactly, to be honest, I just followed him out of the blue" Said Artemis.

Mirana and Dimitri where confused.

"However, it seems that your son is more perceptive that what I originally though, he managed to saw me, somehow" Said Artemis.

"Please, you delivery let yourself been seeing, even I had a hard time finding you before you decide to show yourself" Though Mirana.

"But, as you say, I have something I want, to be more precise, I have something to tell you" Said Artemis while looking at Mirana.

"Please, speak" Said Mirana.

Artemis looked at her and Dimitri

"Are you aware that you only have three days before dying?"
