Chapter 604 - THE MAGIC AROUND THE WATERFALL

Chapter 604 - THE MAGIC AROUND THE WATERFALL

It was so strange to begin with for the demon not stopping her. But Hope didn't want to turn around and showed that demon how nervous she was. She knew that the demon's golden eyes were glued on her back. If it was possible they could bore some hole behind her skull. Fortunately, they couldn't.

At first, Hope thought, she wouldn't be able to push the door, but as it turned out she managed to move it effortlessly.

This is weird.

Was the thing behind this door scarier than the one here?

She wanted to not go, but to turn around just to see the demon woman looked at her mockingly, was not a good option either.

Finally, bracing her heart, Hope went out of the room, leaving the demon behind her. If she said Kace was here, then Hope would find him no matter what.Moreover, there was no use from staying there.

It was very quiet inside the room, after Hope was no longer there while the woman just stood, staring at the closed door with a creepy smile etched on her red lips.

"Beelzebub, do you let her leave just like that?" There was a girl's voice echoing inside that room, her figure appeared out of nowhere, as if the air around them condensed and formed her body.

At the same time, the big room turned into a blurry image until everything just faded away. The crystal lamp, the two chairs, the table and window, everything just dematerialized and left them with the scene of the forest, at the base of Mount Uzu.

It was bizarre, but that was how magic worked.

"How long do you think she could survive out there?" The demon woman named Beelzebub, the Gluttony, who had her eyes on Hope since the time when she was only an infant. That demon smirked devilishly as she turned her body around and faced Terra, the little girl who served the priestess.

She was one of the reasons why the devil could manipulate the whole village for such a long time, and as well as the downfall of the priestess.

The felon who had killed the priestess.

Terra appeared as only a little girl, but her devilish nature was on par with the true devil before her eyes.

The priestess kept Terra next to her because she could sense her demonic aura, trying to suppress and helping the abandoned little girl to fight her own demon.Yet in the end it seemed all of that came to naught.

"Not long… but, it doesn't matter.She can roam around out there until the next decades, and I will sap her power whenever I feel like it." Beelzebub let out a cackling sound.

Terra shrugged, her usual innocent eyes turned sharp when a wick smile spread on her lips. "The children are ready for you…"

"Hmm, I love children. They are so pure and innocent." She remembered after she met Hope for the first time, she came across an eight year old girl, who had the same intoxicating scent like Hope.

However, the two supernatural creatures that she sent to figure out what the girl was, never returned to her. Even now, she wondered if that girl was also a guardian angel.

==============

Hope was flabbergasted when she closed the door behind her body, she was utterly speechless with what she saw before her eyes.

Her normal human brain thought she would meet a corridor or a passageway or another room or anything, but not this.

An unseen moonlight threw its light above her head, causing the waterfall to glow.

The majestic waterfall looked magical, it was swishing over the rock.Thundering down into a pool, like a gigantic water spout. When it toppled into the pool, it foamed at the bottom while the rest of the pool was as clear as cellophane, enabling Hope to see down into the rocky bottom.

Hope gasped in astonishment at the clarity of it.

Such beautiful scenery she was seeing. With this vociferous sound, how could she didn't hear anything from the other side of the door?

However, it didn???t last for long, when Hope realized the door behind her had disappeared.She knew she was teleported to another place again, just like how the demon had teleported her from the dark dungeon to the bright room before.

Hope didn't waste another time when she started her search.

She had seen this waterfall from afar before with Kace. Maybe, if she could pinpoint her location now, there's a chance that she would be able to go back to the place where she was with Kace before.

Of which the chances were almost zero because Hope knew that her sense of direction was beyond bad.

Hope began to walk restlessly, and her anxiousness only grew bigger as she kept circling in the same place over and over again.

It seemed like she walked at the same place because no matter what direction she would take, or how long she would walk, she would end up at the exact same place.

This made her very angry and frustrated. And on top of that, she was tired.

"Argh!" On her attempts, her legs gave up as she slumped down on the velvety grass, kneading her aching legs as her eyes scanned her surroundings once again.

Yet, nothing has changed.

Her fear had been pushed behind her back, clouded by her irritation. What the hell that the demon wanted from trapping her inside this kind of magical place?!

Hope stared at the starry sky above her head as she squeezed her brain to think of a solution.Any solution, the craziest one would also sound good.

Yet, nothing crossed her mind.

But, then she remembered one thing. "If I can't find Kace, maybe he could find me," Hope mumbled to no one in particular.

She sat up straight and looked at the cloak that she was wearing.

As long as Kace was not bound, or chained somewhere, he could find her… probably. At least, this was something—the only thing that Hope could try.

However, if Kace could smell her, so could other creatures.
