"Devour~!"
Who knew how much time had passed? Hermes was starting to feel numb.
"Will anything really go wrong if I keep swallowing it like this?"
Left with no choice, he could only stop this suicidal behavior.
Although the magma-like purple crystal fluid continued to surge toward him without end.
Hermes stopped.
The instant he stopped devouring the Purple Crystal River, an immense force directly sucked in his consciousness.
"Rumble~!"
In an instant, it was as though his consciousness had descended into a multicolored space.
Standing there, Hermes seemed to have forgotten time.
Or rather, the very concept of time had vanished from this place. Only multicolored liquid energy rolled and churned across the heavens and earth.

"What's that?"
Within the world of consciousness, Hermes saw a 'sphere' in the distance.
The moment he looked toward the sphere, his consciousness abruptly accelerated, hurtling toward that far-off place at tremendous speed.

At this point, anyone who was not an idiot could guess what that Celestial System had been.
It was Hell, one of the Supreme Planes.
"Thump~! Thump!"
Hermes heard the powerful heartbeat of
