Warlock of War: My Ares System

Chapter 265 Training And Awake

So adorable…

…

"So, how was it?" I asked the boy who had come out of the brothel as bright as a tomato and shaking as much as a magnitude seven earthquake.

Did he get traumatized?

I slightly chuckled under my breath as the boy quickly locked eyes with me and ran toward the trio, who slowly backed away, trying not to get caught in the crossfire as Cy lunged into me and took me down to the ground.

"I couldn't do it," He muttered, and my eyes widened just a bit before relaxing as Cy looked to really be thinking of me and the succubi's words.

"Are you sure? I can even pay for your room if you really want to try it out?"

"I'm sure. I'll find somebody I really like and won't end up like a depressed mess like you," Cy smirked as we both slowly stood up.

"Who's a depressing mess?" I ruffled Cy's hair before we continued on our way outside of the city, and after yet another day of walking, we finally arrived outside the borders.

It was just as eerie as before since I could already feel the watching eyes of several monsters lock onto us as we split from the safety of the border patrol.

"You all should be able to handle your own against most monsters, but if you can't, just run away. No need to die trying and walk all the back here," I muttered, and as my siblings all split up to go to the locations I had given, I began to run deep into the forest.

My eyes scoured the inside, leaving no corner untouched until I finally found my target: a camp hidden near the bottom of a mountain, and it was also slightly engraved into it.

They used the mountain as a natural fortress to prevent an attack from all sides, but the mistake that they made was forming the mountain as part of their camp.

"This should be easier than anticipated," I muttered before grabbing a lighter out of my bag and snagging a few dead leaves that were just barely hanging off the dark wooden branches surrounding me.

I had no hesitation in my movements as I dashed forward and flipped over the spikey wooden walls, tumbling into the demonic camp with cackling children.

They almost looked like demon babies as they ran toward me, but instead of fear, I felt only pity as this camp was going to be dead in just a few hours.

[Throne World: Dripping Hell]

I had already recovered my mana and stamina from the fight against Asmodeus, but this pride that seemingly shattered after running away still lingered in my chest, occasionally stabbing me with any move I made.

But, upon activating this skill, I was surrounded by hell… a truly hellish place that flowed with anger and erupted with agony.

I felt my movements quicken as I summoned my spear, and upon realizing the death trap the imps had just let into their camp, they attempted to run away.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't run away from me. Not in this place.

Some occasionally fell into potholes filled to the brim with lava, making a nice and refreshing demon soup.

Some would accidentally run through a streak of lava, instantly melting their legs off and sending them tumbling across the ground, screeching with pain.

This entire mountain had entered my domain, and nothing would ever be able to escape it.

FWOOSH

Soon, the demons realized that running away was useless, so they focused all their energy on the assailant who trapped them in such a hellish land.

They came after me from every side, but my spear tore through each and every single one until my face and body had been lathered in their blood.

But, instead of wiping it off, their blood came ripping off my skin and swirling into a ball of condensed blood that I lightly licked.

"Gross," I muttered before cocking back my head and swallowing the pill.

My eyes throbbed upon swallowing the demonic blood, but a strange hunger continued to persist through me as I used my spear as a support to help me stand.

The few remaining imps took a step back in fear as they saw my skin literally throb like a beating heart.

"Fuck… Uh… That's good," I lightly smiled before swinging my spear once, tearing through the last remaining imps.

Upon deactivating my throne world, the side effects immediately hit me like that fucking meteor in the overworld.

My limbs felt as if they were about to fall off, but just to make sure they wouldn't come back, I tossed some leaves onto the end of the wooden wall and lit it.

It took a bit of blowing and trial and error, but eventually, I got the wall to light up in flames.

Walking away from the mess I had just created, I decided to head to the rendezvous point not too far from here, but on the way, I took down a couple more camps.

I doubted the others were going to be able to finish them as fast as I could but, to be honest, I couldn't activate my throne world again.

The side effects were just too much, and fainting in the middle of such a deadly forest would end me up in the belly of a demon.

…

"Alright, it's been a few days, but I feel like we can go mow one more camp… Thoughts?" I asked the trio in front of me.

"Sure, I don't mind… as long as we make it to the ceremony. There is no way we are missing that…." Findir muttered through gritted teeth.

The others also glared at the ground, lightly kicking the floor to display their annoyance and anger.

"Alright… we'll move out tomorrow and make our way back the following day. We should be able to make it to the last couple of meetings if we do that…." I muttered before falling back onto the rocky dirt.

"Orion…" Aisa muttered, and I just slowly glanced at her before saying anything else. "I'm scared Luna and Bella won't be the same after being captured by that asshole,"

"We're all thinking that, Aisa," Cy muttered.

…

(Bella POV)

(Just a few days ago)

"Ugh… my head," I groaned, but when I went to rub my temples, I noticed my arms and legs had been chained to a wall.

I quickly attempted to yank on them, but that clearly didn't work, so I attempted to try and use my magic, but it had been suppressed.

The only thing I was able to conjure was a few green embers that flew out of the palms of my hand.

"Wait… Luna?" I whispered to myself as I saw my sister sitting right next to me in the same brown prison dress as me.

She had also been chained to the wall, but when I tried to wake her up, there wasn't even a twitching muscle.

My heart nearly dropped into my stomach as I stared at my sister, but I quickly pressed my two fingers against her neck and realized she still had a pulse.

"Ugh… were we drugged… let's see… oh yeah, we ran into the succubus and then… everything went blank? I remember she grabbed me by slipping through Orion's gaze, and then everything just went blank… I guess she did something with me-"

"Can you be quiet for a second… my head is absolutely pounding," The woman beside me groaned.

"Luna! You're awake!" I shouted before lunging into her embrace since the chains connecting to my limbs weren't that strict.

As she slowly pet my head to try and comfort me, she muttered, "Where are we? Asmodeus' layer?"

"Asmodeus' layer?" I asked, and Luna slightly nodded.

"We attempted to save you because you had been kidnapped into his large-ass palace, but then we were absolutely destroyed. Nobody really stood a chance… I hope they managed to run away in time," Luna explained.

"R-Really?" I stuttered but began to feel some anger boil within me.

"Just calm down for now. If he really wanted to kill us, he would've done so already, so let's just stay calm and wait for-"

"Who might you be waiting for?" A cold voice penetrated through the bars of our cell, and when we looked up, it was a familiar succubus.

"This fucking bitch-"

Luna quickly held me back and covered my mouth before coldly diverting her gaze away from the succubus.

I immediately understood what she was trying to do, so I also diverted my gaze and just gave the weight of my body into Luna's embrace.

"Tch…" The succubus clicked her tongue. "Well, you're lucky Asmodeus decided to take you as concubines, otherwise you would've become a toy that lived and died on his bed,"

"That's quite the good thing to hear. But, we're not planning on becoming his concubines… and once we get out of here, we're beating your ass," I said, unable to take the taunting words of the succubus in front of us.

"Fufufufu… Then good luck,"
