Mount Olympus looked very normal at first glance. Most streets were very clean, with plenty of cafes and restaurants to choose from. They even had schools for their residents should they have enough money to attend universities and the like. I didn't trust public schools even if they were run by gods of education. Winslow had that kind of effect on people.

Shortly after I met up with Thoth and Anubis in the hotel lobby, we went our separate ways. I had a few hours until we had to meet up again to head over to Poseidon's place for dinner. As fun as the ribbon cutting ceremony sounded, it wasn't my sort of thing. I didn't like being in large crowds. Me and crowds usually end up with someone dead and their blood on my hands. Sure gods were immortal, but there were punishments far worse than death out there. Being eaten alive by hundreds of insects while not being able to die was more than enough to get the information that I need. I had a few centuries of practice after all.

Walking through Mount Olympus' version of downtown was pretty fun. Most people tried to avoid me, some even going as far as crossing the road as soon as they caught sight of me. I honestly should have expected something like this, but I wasn't even wearing my Skitter mask! This was a bit disappointing, even by Olympian standards. Back to my mission, I had no idea where to start. Usually I was given a suspect and then my investigation would begin, but here I had nothing. All I had was rumors and hearsay. The rumors didn't provide much information at all, only that Apophis cultists were spotted in Mount Olympus.

Hm, I should probably head to where they were last spotted and spread out as many feelers as I could. I eyed a few one eyed nymphs that passed by me. My mask was going to bring me some attention. Luckily there was a pawn shop just down the block. I had a few scarab gems on me, so a quick stop wouldn't hurt.

I hated wearing disguises.

After haggling with the mean nymph who owned the pawn shop, I walked out wearing some dirty clothing that she had in the back, my mask hidden in one of my pockets. Amun-Ra always did say that I looked a bit Greek, racist bastard.

"I'll be back later." I threw a golden scarab at the owner who caught it easily. I was storing my clothing in the back.

"Yeah yeah." The nymph rolled her eyes as she pocketed the scarab. She better not sell my blazer while I'm gone. It was a gift from Isis and I didn't need her complaining that it got dirty. With a sigh, I walked out of the pawn shop.

When you needed to find scum, where did you look? The shady part of town was always a good start. Judging by how promiscuous the Olympians were, the strip club was where I would start. Every domain had a place where you went to if you needed information. The Norse had their taverns, the Chinese their gambling dens, and the Aztecs had their chocolate shops. Pulling out my phone, I searched up the closest club. Zeus was a known customer at several clubs with paparazzi following their kings every move, so what was stopping his fellow gods and goddesses? I needed to gather information, and this was the perfect place to start. I'm sure that the workers at such establishments manage to overhear information that they shouldn't have.

If they refused to tell me, well, Lisa was always hungry.

It turned out that the search for the strip club didn't take long, it actually took longer to get there since I was walking. Now that I thought about it, I probably should have gotten a taxi or a rental. Nah, if I ended up in a chase like Japan I didn't want the car being traced back to me. I hated Japan, too many perverts with their tentacles, but most of them were actually pretty nice.

I'm still never going back though.

Standing at the mouth of an alleyway next to the club, I leaned against the wall casually. This...was a pretty weird strip club with a sign that said 'Come on in for Brunch'. Yup, that sounded right up Zeus' alley. Ignoring a pair of chattering nymphs that walked by and into the building, I started to spread out my bugs as well as gathering more.

Ew, this place really needed a health inspector to come here. Hundreds of roaches were literally living in the kitchen, and who knew how many were in the 'rooms'. Wait a minute, I did. Yeah, this place was pretty nasty, and bugs were literally my thing. Directing dozens of flies into the main room, I froze.

Zeus, Hades and Poseidon were here? For brunch? I couldn't make out much, but that was definitely them in there. I needed more bugs to get a clearer picture, but I didn't need anyone noticing them.

Suddenly, someone entered the range of my bugs. Stepping out of a rather expensive car was a golden lady I had seen once before. Hera was here. Oh shit, was Zeus about to get his ass beat? Or was this something more sinister? With the snap of her fingers, Hera transformed into a beautiful nymph and stomped into the strip club.

Were they the Apophis cultist?

A/N

This is much shorter than it should be, but I'm starting to lose my muse. My writing is starting to slow down and I'm not sure how much longer I'll be able to write. My hiatus will probably be starting soon. I don't know for how long, but hopefully it won't be a year like last time.

I got story ideas and chapters planned, but nothing wants to come out. I open a google doc and my mind goes blank.

The next story I shall be working on will be my Chimera rewrite, Chimaera and Smoker the White Hunter.

I'm not a good writer.

Oh and the concerns that everyone brought up last time about repeating events directly from the webtoon, I understand. Chapters such as those are for the readers who haven't read LO. As an author, I don't know how much background information my audience has, especially since AB focuses mostly on Worm. I want LK to be entertaining both to LO readers as well as those who come from the Worm side of the crossover. I'll try to tone it down in future chapters, but no promises.

Sorry

BTW

Chimaera passed up LK here on FF in terms of Favs and Follows. Thank you for the support!
