Chapter 755 The Demon World
Lawrend motioned for them to continue down.
The group reached the seafloor. It wasn't that far from the point where they entered the midnight zone.
In front of them were red lines that hovered above the seafloor. There were about five of them, and they looked odd when looked at.
"I will incite it to open, Master." Aezel used her magic to speak to everyone.
Aezel pointed her palm at the red lines and stretched her fingers as wide as she could. Arcs of golden lightning danced all over her hand.
A few seconds later, five thick golden strands shot out and hit the five red lines.
They glowed a bright and eerie red color. It was out of place here at the bottom of the ocean. Lawrend used his elemental eyes to watch the whole process.
The space warped and changed. It happened quickly without giving Lawrend a chance to understand how it worked.
The five lines expanded and formed a big red circular portal that was two meters in size. It released an eerie aura with darkness mana slowly escaping out.
"Is this safe?" Lawrend asked, using similar magic to speak to them through the water.
The last time he had seen one of these portals work, it was when Aezel kicked her little brother into the portal. He was powerless back then as the portal swallowed him up when he got near.
"Yes. At least this is safer than when I kicked my little brother in. Fufufu," Aezel laughed.
Lawrend shook his head and smiled wryly. Hearing her confirmation gave him some assurance. He let go of Ember and Aleshia and walked over in front of the portal.
Ella followed and stood beside him. The two of them scrutinized the inner workings of the portal. It used some sort of space magic to work.
Lawrend walked around it, and the portal would always be facing him. It made his head hurt slightly as it was disorienting.
"Master, can you use your strongest magic on this portal?"
Ella wrote on a blank sheet of wood since her magic couldn't be used to speak underwater.
"We can't, or we won't be able to go to the Demon World," Lawrend replied.
He didn't want to risk destroying the portal. It was very valuable for them at the moment since it was their chance to escape from the Primistus Continent. If a few more time passed, the Spring and Zephyr clans might get an idea as to where they were.
It was already stretching it for them to take a day of vacation earlier.
"Alright. Let's enter," Lawrend said to the others.
They solemnly nodded their heads and followed him into the portal.
…
"Uahh!"
Lawrend fell onto the ground. They weren't underwater anymore, and that disoriented him.
"NYAA!!"
Amene, Grape, and Straw shivered at the sudden air.
Similar to Lawrend, the others were thrown to the ground. Lawrend stood up and looked up at the dark-red sky. The mana in the surroundings was familiar, yet unfamiliar.
It was odd, and it reminded Lawrend of the red lightning that Aezel used before it turned into Divine Lightning.
"Doesn't this mean that I can combine these magic elements with my current ones?" Lawrend muttered to himself in a daze.
Excitement grew inside of him as the thought of becoming even stronger than he already was filled his mind. He not only would be able to find a way to become a Heaven Mage, but he would also become an undefeatable one.
"Fufufu. Congrats, Master. You will return to the Human World with no competition besides the Divine Mage," Aezel praised him.
Lawrend turned back to face them. They had already stood up, and the group looked like wet chicks. Their current appearance was odd for where they were.
Currently, they were surrounded by a forest with violet trees. There were stone bricks laid below Lawrend's feet and a circular arch over at the blue portal behind them.
'This is so interesting. The color of the portal here is blue. Does that have a connection with the color of the sky?' Lawrend thought to himself.
He looked up at the red sky once again, and it reminded him of the portal when he first saw it.
"Aezel, you lead us out of here," Lawrend ordered.
"As per your orders, Master."
The others were still looking around when Aezel urged them to follow her. They didn't fly and instead walked through the predetermined path in this forest. Aezel repeatedly looked left and right because this place was also unfamiliar to her.
"There's a demon…" Aezel whispered and crouched down.
Lawrend, his maids, and his children followed after her. There was a 5-foot-tall humanoid creature with sharp black claws and a deformed body compared to humans.
"They still look as ugly as ever…" Lawrend whispered.
"Fufufu. As I told you before, one of the early female demons kidnapped a human and forced him to impregnate her. That allowed the demons the chance to become beautiful and as powerful as the humans," Aezel explained in a low voice.
"Should we kill him?" Lawrend asked.
"Yes, Master. It's a barbarian demon that will release a loud shout when he sees a human," Aezel replied and nodded her head in agreement.
Lawrend smiled and motioned for Aleshia to move. She nodded her head and jumped out. She moved rapidly, but her footsteps were silent. Someone who wasn't ready would not be able to sense her coming.
She took out her mask from her storage ring and wore them on her face. She circled behind the demon and slowly got closer.
She stopped.
The demon was crouching on the ground and digging a small hole. Who knew what it was trying to do?
Aleshia didn't care about it and rushed forward. She had her black dagger in hand and embraced the demon's chest, and sliced his throat.
The demon grasped at his throat in confusion as his red blood shot forward. He fell down dead without the chance to know what killed him.
