Chapter 704 In an unknown land

[OP: ]

An open area filled with volcanic earth on all sides, burning, bubbling with red magma so hot the end of fames present above the matter coming out of the ground were nearly white. Not blue, but white.

There was an area covered with tall sharp rocks in the middle of this dark soil, and in the middle of it was a structure carved out of these same volcanic sharp rocks resembling a demonic castle.

Demons and demonic creatures roamed around this castle-like structure. The dark castle of evil that just by looking at it for too long would corrupt the weak souls that could not endure the demonic essence this castle was carved out with.

There were beings wearing wraith-like cardigans, among the expense of this castle, unafraid and unaffected by the demonic creatures or the ugly demons themselves.

They roamed fearlessly in this castle, floated, ran, walked around without a care in the world.

And the demonic beings just stayed still as if they were no special existence.

If anything, they were careful or respectful before some of these beings in strange, dark clothing.

However, the ones in the wraiths were all indifferent to these existences. As if they meant nothing to them at all...

The atmosphere around this castle was almost lively at the moment as things were progressing at a timely manner.

There was no celestial body in the red sky above this castle, almost as if this place was the hell itself.

And, there were certain chambers in this castle that belonged to certain beings so special, unique, and important that... the behaviour of these demonic creatures were all completely understandable.

lightsnοvεl However, in this castle, there was one that stood above all these creatures covered in dark wraiths.

[ "They found out about the attack units." ]

The one sitting on the throne of this castle situated in the innermost part of it, a place that had no ceiling, a place completely covered in red and gold, a place so large that it can fit hundreds of people and still so small looking before the grand throne in the middle that the contradiction could not be justified by the importance of the holder of the throne.

[ "According to our reports, the group assembled by Merlin already had a deep understanding of all the strongholds, there was a detailed plan in play to cut down their own losses to as much as possible, and, from the reports we received, it says that they possessed the ancient divine artifact, Arc of Jen that is said to have been lost after Saint Jen vanished from the face of this earth.

They also had someone the artifact had acknowledged and someone that knew how to play it so profoundly well that even the ones hearing from faraway could not help but want to submit to its melodious nature. And one reports claims that there were two different people that could play it.This material is derived from n0v£lbin•

Additionally, there was someone who could cast high grade light magic using profound runes so complicated and unheard of that it was impossible to even memorise and recreate them, much less comprehend them to any extent.

It was said they used those spells to deal a great blow to both of the demons the groups managed to summon with the limited sacrifices. And additionally, some other person, one possessing an exceptional power, dealt with the one of the members who turned themselves into a corrupted lich all on their own.

The forces Merlin managed to build in that little time were extraordinary. However their overall estimated threat level is still only rank.

Any one of us could deal with them ourselves." ]

Twelve beings, people, wearing the same wraith were standing before the throne. And from how their cardigan was lighter than the other wraith outside, it could be said they were the important figures in this castle.

And the one on the throne, the highest authority of this place, was wearing a wraith cardigan completely white. His two mismatched eyes, one red the other blue, were looking down at the twelve beings with an emotionless, deep look.

[ "All of you are fools." ]

The throne holder said with his deep, almost demonic voice that was so powerful that even the twelve beings before him had to submit to the voice and kneel down on the ground.

He announced, a spark of admiration present deep beneath his voice.

[ "A creation that is not mortal or immortal. Something that is purely a creation of its creator thus independent from the bounds of nature. Something that could be made with such perfection that giving it a hundred artists' insurmountable knowledge, finesse, and talents would not be impossible. Something, that is beyond current mortal minds, however, also something that is not impossible for the 'humans' who possess the greatest of potential, and knowledge of the ancient craft.

If it is an automation, a direct creation of the master of the divine artifact, it is possible for the divine artifact to consider it an extension of its master, and ultimately acknowledge it." ]

Their mismatched eyes now contained a unique kind of joy.

[ "Haaa..." ]

A deep sigh reverberated throughout the hall as the twelve figures looked up at the throne, stunned.

[ "Lord pope? What-" ]

[ "Hahahahaha~." ]

And then, they heard a kind of laugh they had never seen this ruthless, powerful, divine person on the throne make in their entire lifetimes they had served him.

[ "This is what a cool guy should be like! This is how someone worthy of standing against will of the great apostle and the great one should be like!" ]

His laugh was one thing but the powerful energy that he was relesing alongside this laugh was crushing the physical bodies of the twelve standing before him.

[ "Lord pope!" ]

They could barely be on their knees, much less stand before this great of a pressure.

They might die if it had continued and he would have to go through another hassle of finding new ones to fill theri spots, and he did not like that idea.

[ "Get lost you useless fools" ]

He three them all out of the room with a mere movement of his finger, and continued laughing like a crazy person.

[ "Hahahaha. What an amusing person. Haha. I can not wait for the next time. Hahahahah!" ]

He... definitely was no normal person. Or a sane person.

There was something wrong about him.

Perhaps there were many things wrong about him.

[ "Hahahahaha~!" ]

However, the conclusion was simple.

[ "I will be waiting for you, unknown cool mister! Hahaha! Hahahahahaha...!" ]

He was a very dangerous being.

And certainly... not something 'they' were ready to face just yet.
