Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

The River Styx, the dark river leading to the Underworld

There were actually a few such rivers that were called the River Styx and led to the Underworld, but they were typically in theto official sources, the Styx was the main way to lead souls to the Underworld

Each River Styx was very wide, and the rivers didn't just flow through a plane norh the Universe's planes

They ended in the mysterious, cold Underworld

Marvin knew that this dark river was only a small branch

There was a white wharf on the river shore, andnear the wharf

Ordinary souls would be gathered by the Reapers before being transferred down the river through Candle Boats

Each Candle Boat represented the soul of someone that had passed away

The River Styx was this world's erous place

It was safe to say that even if Marvin was ready to deal with the snake Witch, he shouldn't approach such a dangerous area

But there was actually a problem with this wharf!

When he reached the moss-covered slope, Marvin quickly juently patted the Rock Lizard's back, hinting his intentions

He would rely on hio with him

He wanted the Rock Lizard to wait for hih it had been tamed, Marvin didn't knohether it would work

But when he turned back after walked a fair distance away, the Rock Lizard had already started running off

Marvin just shrugged and continued on his own

After about fiveeastward, toward a bright beacon shining through the darkness

This light would attract the surrounding souls and facilitate the Reapers' work

Marvin hid his aura and entered Stealth, slowly approaching the wharf

As Marvin had expected, the wharf really was crazily congested!

After becoht, Marvin's body had been transformed to the point that his eyes could see souls, which were normally invisible to the naked eye

He stood on a hillside, looking down at the bustling souls, which seemed to block almost the entire River Styx

The row of Candle Boats on the dark river looked like a swar this scene, Marvin rejoiced that he had guessed correctly On the other hand, he also felt deep sorrow

What caused this situation was naturally the terrifying Great Calamity!

One third of Feinan's population died in a mere teeks!

Many of the countless souls were left drifting, so the Reapers should be pretty busy!

Although this was very good news for the Underworld's Sovereigns, and even though they had been prepared for this before the disaster, they hadn't expected that the nuh!

The Styx's wharf was thoroughly blocked!

Great nu to be handled by the Underworld's Reapers This put a large aave Marvin a chance!

A chance to sneakily cross the dark river!

On the other side of the dark river, there was a large hilly area, occupied by an Arachnee tribe

As long as he could get past the Arachnee tribe and circumvent the Rotten Mushroom Swamp, Marvin would arrive at his final destination, Devil Town

The current question was how he should cross the river
