Harvey widened his eyes after he heard the old Grandpa who said that he was dangerous. Lookie was still beaten by a whip but he seems didn't feel any pain. Harvey thought that these netherworld villagers were monsters too, but they were just disguising themselves. So, Harvey moved away from the three unknown people and strolled around the avenue with lots of rocks. There was no sense of living but all were dead. Rocks were not living things and those were the only things that can be seen. Around, there were little houses but it seems uninhabitable. It was similar to a deserted land.

Across the streets, there were a few people but Harvey didn't know if they were really human.

One of the people, a lady, stared at him with a confused expression. He had no other reaction but to smile at that beautiful maiden.

The three people were also walking behind him. He turned around and said, "I think you don't follow me. You said before that I am dangerous but then you are walking with me."

The old Grandpa scoffed, "Humans are really disrespectful."

Lookie also interrupted, "Grandpa, I think you are mistaken. He is cool."

Harvey smiled at Lookie and said, "People here have some kind of femininity."

The little child was puzzled by what Harvey said so he posted a question, "What is femininity?"

Old Grandpa was also baffled, "You mean. Females?"

Harvey laughed while watching the three people with ugly expressions. He continued, "Well, I just remember someone who seems very similar to Lookie."

"Really? Who is that person?", Lookie was intrigued.

"Forget it. I don't really know that person very much.", Harvey replied then walked again.

The Grandpa stared at Lookie and smiled. He seems to understand what Harvey meant. Lookie looked at the old man with an innocent face. That Lookie was already in his twenties but he resembled a young child. He knew everything except loving someone.

People in the netherworld were loveless. However, some of the netherworld villagers may develop a feeling after visiting the monster's lair. No one dared to visit that place except for those who were brave.

Harvey walked a few meters away down the steep road when he noticed a reddish horizon. It was like a stage and seems similar to where Zion brought him. He quickly rushed to that horizon and felt that it was endless. He ran for that spot but it was unreachable.

The Grandpa saw Harvey who was running so he called, "Man, that is pointless if you run. We can wait till the morning. That reddish horizon is very distant and unfathomable if the moons are still shining."

"What do you mean?", Harvey heard the old man and stopped running. The voices will echo through the atmosphere because it was bared.

"That is the Kahuna stade.", Lookie quickly answered.

"That dead Kahuna?", Harvey verified.

"Yes, he owns that stade. Below that is the monster's lair.", Lookie replied.

Harvey seems to remember something. That reddish horizon was familiar but he can't assure his speculation. Maybe that horizon was the place Zion showed him that ended in fury. So, he just stayed silent and took a sit on the pavement of one of the little houses.  The three people saw him and approached. When they were near, the three people ignored Harvey so he was surprised. He thought that these people will accompany him but it did not happen. The old Grandpa

and two rushed to the little house and knocked at it. When suddenly, the door opened and there was a dim light that can be seen. The face of that person inside was unrecognizable.

"Come, visitors.", a lady's voice was heard from that little house.

Harvey quickly stood up and tidied his pants. He followed the three people behind. The lady seemed welcoming. Harvey felt something amiss and complicated. So, he stepped back and moved far away.

"What are you waiting for, come in. Outside is freezing.", the lady beckoned them.

Harvey was silent while observing that interaction with the lady and his so-called companions. After a moment, the horizon was ablaze by the sparkling light. He watched it and felt worried since it was like a fire. When suddenly, Lookie patted his shoulder and said, "It is already morning. Don't be shocked by that."

The old lady that was very welcoming to them, quickly shut her door as she was very afraid.

"Now, we can already visit the monsters' lair.", the old Grandpa sighed in relief.

"What's there in that monster's lair?", Harvey asked.

"It is also called the love lair.", old Grandpa replied with a smile.

Harvey was confused and thought what kind of love lair was that? That monsters will give them love? Or, something was there that will awaken their hearts? Who wanted to visit that monster's lair just to find love? Harvey was full of questions but he just kept it all on his mind.

The old Grandpa beckoned them while standing on the road. The three people were very excited. Harvey watched them with amazement. So, they walked down that steep road and he reached that reddish horizon that instant. Unlike, that night, Harvey ran and even lost his breath just to reach that horizon but now, he just walked for a few meters and he had set foot on it.

"Grandpa, where are that monsters located?", the little child asked.

"There below that steep.", Grandpa pointed to the horizon.

The reddish horizon was similar to the plateau that Harvey had already seen before. The stade was in the center and edged with deep steep. The only way to land on it was the rocky narrow road that extended between the barren village and the reddish stade. The rocky bridge can accommodate two people to walk jointly. There, one's soul may be intimidated by looking below. The platform on the ground was foggy and one cannot ensure his safety if some accident will happen. The environment under that rocky bridge was horrifying. Howling of some strange animals can be heard and even weeping and gaggling of ladies were audible.

The old Grandpa was surprised when he noticed the pathway to that high stade. He can't believe that there was something bridge going to the high stade. So, he wiped his sweat and lowered his head while focusing.

Harvey was no longer afraid of these things but not all the time. He was already considered immune to these happenings. So, he set foot on that rocky bridge and languidly walked on it. The three people watched him with agape mouths. They were surprised by what Harvey had done. So, they quickly followed behind. There was no danger and the road was strong. The three people

looked at each other and smiled. That man had some luck since nothing dangerous had happened.

Harvey and his companion reached the high stade. It was barren land. Before them, they can sense something was there. Old Grandpa quickly rushed in the north direction and checked what was that gut feeling. He froze while looking below. Harvey saw him and so he hurriedly approached the old man. The young man and the child were still looking around and stayed still on their spot. They didn't even notice Harvey who was running towards their Grandpa.

"What's there?", Harvey asked.

"There were monsters below.", the Old Grandpa was drenched by his sweat while he spoke.

Harvey smirked and said a word, "That is your purpose here so why you are very afraid?"

"I think there was only one monster.", the old Grandpa chickened while grabbing something in his pocket.

"What is that?", Harvey watched him and asked.

"It was a potion but seems my goal is hard to achieve." the Grandpa crouched on the ground.

Lookie and the child approached Harvey and old Grandpa. Their eyes were puzzled and so the child asked, "Grandpa, why did you spill that potion? It was very expensive."

"Well, this potion had no value anymore.", Grandpa answered dismissively.

While they were chatting, suddenly the high stade shook violently. Harvey quickly knelt on the ground. He warned the three people too to not move. It was an earthquake. The ground became half separating Harvey and three people on the other half. Harvey was sweating and he breathed heavily. He thought that after kahuna died, he can escape death but seems it was in reverse.
