"Supre Demon Monarch! Seated there..."
An unspeakable spell was chanted from the mouth of the black shadow before him.
In front of him stood an altar composed of bizarre structures, held aloft by a few small demons below it, trembling in stillness.
Soon, flas ignited in the center of the altar as the spell continued.
The flas took the shape of a crimson skull.
The blurry form from the flas revealed that the creature seed to have exaggeratedly large horns.
Upon seeing this image.
The black shadow imdiately knelt, lowering itself to indicate submission.
"Ah… It's you, not fallen in battle but hidden away..."
Upon hearing these words.
The shadow hastily responded with a trembling voice: "Honorable master, please forgive my sinful actions.
I felt your power and call, I..."
The voice was abruptly interrupted.
"Enough."
It's important to know that the world barrier hasn't fully dissolved yet, so overly noticeable exchanges of power get easily interrupted.
The shadow quickly bowed its head.
"Co, this is your last chance, no matter what you plan, show your results.
Otherwise, perish in battle, offering your soul."
With that said, the flas dissipated.
The shadow trembled, almost gasping.
Standing up again, it waved its hand gently, dispersing the altar, while the small demons holding it were too frightened to move.
Clearing them away carelessly, the shadow looked at the energy ball in its hand.
"Information?"
For the first ti, he felt information from received power, indicating that the Evil God he worshiped had sothing to convey.
He hurriedly accepted it.
"I see, who constructed this connection? I'd love to study their soul."
Upon receiving the essence of the information in his mind, the scholar side of this black shadow inevitably erged.
The information in his mind was indeed fresh, a thod to wish through the Stone.
To this soul forced into hiding millennia ago, it was utterly enticing.
"Phew, let's do what needs to be done."
Saying this, he extended his black claw into his own body, retrieving two fragnts from within.
"My body is already demonized; it's a pity I can't wish using that thod, only graft and borrow more power from Hell."
The Stone of Creation can be considered the last hope shed by the world's instincts.
It represents the essence of the world, almost immune to external forces unless the world's will is completely shattered.
But doing so would equate to destroying the world, and the Stone of Creation would naturally lose its power.
This is an absolute power bound to the world.
Even a powerful Giant Dragon, once it makes a wish, cannot escape the world in tis of crisis; it must either save the world or fall with it.
A cultist, a Fallen, nearly half-demonized, wishing is sheer luxury.
He must use an Apostle's descent to draw more hellish power upon himself.
...
Kana walked out of his small room.
He had just communicated with Bugreit, confirming progress on Bugreit's side—it was rather good news.
"Has the demon mage not erged yet?"
Kana asked.
He couldn't help but admire the hidden thods of this guy; the area's range was limited and not large.
In such a region, this demon mage managed to hide perfectly, which was truly surprising.
After all, in the ga, he didn't hide but directly beca a part of the dungeon.
He even occupied the tower.
But with Kana and his team arriving first, the mage was driven into hiding.
Alyris shook her head: "Based on his previous appearance, he might have been assimilated by the power of nightmares.
Turning into a nightmare-like demon, allowing him to hide between reality and Spirit."
Bobo lifted his head and added: "In such crevices, to drag him out, one must have innate ability or bloodline."
Simply put, this type of power isn't sothing ordinary people can control.
"Knock knock knock."
A clear knocking sound ca from the door.
Anita opened the door.
Videl ca in, bowing to everyone.
"Sorry for disturbing you all."
"Interrupting!"
A sweet, clamoring voice followed.
A little girl with small demon horns poked her head out.
It was his daughter, Isabella.
Her pretty eyes darted around the hall, soon spotting her target.
She darted out from behind her father.
"You child." Videl tried to catch her but was clearly one step too late.
Anita laughed from the side: "She's quite lively, isn't she?"
"I have to thank you for your help." Videl said sincerely.
If it weren't for Alyris's blood suppression before, she would still be stuck at ho.
At this ti, Isabella pounced onto Alyris.
Alyris hastily embraced her, holding her close.
"Sniff sniff!"
In Alyris's embrace, Isabella sniffed her nose, seemingly detecting a different scent, turning her head toward nearby Kana.
She sniffed toward Kana's direction too.
She seed to find sothing similar, opening her mouth to say sothing.
Quick as could be, Alyris covered her mouth, turning her head away.
"How about now? Feeling better?" she hurriedly changed the topic.
Though Isabella had strong succubus blood, she was still a child and easily shifted topics.
"Thank you, sister, the pattern on my back is a bit ugly, but my head feels cool now and doesn't hurt."
She said while clinging tightly to Alyris's neck, her little face rubbing back and forth.
Bobo grinned mischievously as he approached.
"Caught by the child?"
"What caught or not caught? I don't understand." Alyris feigned ignorance, shaking her head.
"Hehe, you..."
Yet before he finished his sentence, Alyris noticed Isabella staring at her, and with one look, Isabella swiftly turned her head away, trembling for a brief mont.
"Ugh, annoying!"
Grumbling, she walked away.
"Bobo is a nice girl."
Alyris patted the little girl's hair, whispering in her ear.
"Isabella knows, it's just, just I'm scared of rats, especially one so big."
"What an impolite child you are."
Videl couldn't help but say as he overheard.
"It's okay, I won't argue with children."
Bobo replied, though her expression hardly matched her words.
"After all, there are rats everywhere outside; she'll get used to it."
"Pfft!" Miguel West couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Bobo's ears twitched and instantly caught the sound.
"What's wrong? Does the Elf young master have orders for ?" Her words dripped with sarcasm.
Observing the group's playful banter, Kana helplessly smiled at Videl.
"Pardon the spectacle, so? Has your leader made a decision?"
"Yes, I'm here to invite you to join us."
