Chapter 504 - Altar On The Deepest Floor
"What did you just say, you inferior creature!? A creature like you is just a tool and plaything to me. If not for their interference, you are just a living puppet!" The boy screamed in annoyance, and some veins popped on his forehead.
Hearing that, Elysia, Elena, and Rhea frowned. Elena just kicked the blue cocoon and added additional magic fiber to silence the noisy boy.
"Guh, mhhh!" The boy tried to fight back, but the cocoon of fluid and fiber silencing his mouth was incredibly durable.
"You don\'t need to respond to a creature like this, Sylvia." After saying that, Elena put up a dome barrier for them and then looked at Nell and Oceanid. "Have you interrogated this little boy? Tell us what you got out of him."
"We\'d better go to the deepest floor as soon as possible. I\'ll talk on our way." Nell put her hand on her upper chest with a worried expression. She then looked at the Sea God and extended her palm forward. "Sea God, please be the vanguard again at the front. We have to get to the ninth floor before it\'s too late."
"Understood." Oceanid nodded and flew flying ahead.
Nell carried everyone to fly away with her magic, and she immediately reported everything she managed to extract from the little boy.
"I see... So, this little boy has the name Darko, the weakened Emperor-level accursed monster which can be considered too weak than it should be. And, a God-level accursed monster is on the deepest floor of this place? A group of humans entered to this maze a week ago, and they\'re trying to free that God-level accursed monster into the world?" Elena put her hand to her chin with a heavy expression.
That bunch of humans would only make the situation worse and more complicated, no matter if they succeeded or not.
"God-level accursed monster!? If that vile creature dares to emerge from its sealed ground, I will use this to stab its ass and blow its cherry!" Sylvia raised her cannon as if she was stabbing something above. "Mhff!"
Unfortunately, Elysia immediately used her hands to cover the excited devil girl\'s mouth. She pressed her index finger to her lips with a complex smile on her face. "Shh, please be quiet for a moment. Let the Goddesses have some quiet time to think of a solution."
"Mfh, gh, gh!" The encased little boy responded with his muffled voice that sounded like laughter.
Sylvia only glanced at Elysia and nodded like an obedient girl. When her mouth was released, she put her cannon into her Space Bag again because Elysia asked for it.
"I hope we\'re not too late or it will be a tough battle with lots of risk and backlash." Rhea took a deep breath and sighed.
"Well then, what are we going to do with this little boy? He\'s of no use to us anymore, right? I feel insecure because of the potential risk he carries. What if I send him to his maker once and for all?" Elena pointed at the blue cocoon. She treated it just like a useless object and an eyesore.
"Originally, I intended to interrogate him again for in-depth information about his race. His current state is very favorable to extract some more useful things." Nell looked regretfully at the blue cocoon. "But if we\'re going to fight a God-level accursed monster, it\'s impossible for us to leave a dangerous creature like this unattended. It\'s a potential escape for him when we\'re caught off guard."
After saying that, Nell looked worriedly and concernedly at Elena and Elysia. "The courses brought by Emperor-level accursed monsters are huge and extremely dangerous even for divine-levels. Will you and Ely be okay? I\'m afraid-"
Elena gave a stop-hand gesture. "It\'s okay, we have a solution. Let\'s destroy him when we get to the sixth floor."
Nell just nodded in response. She then glanced at the blue cocoon and got a smug expression from the little boy.
"Hmph." Nell just snorted. That little boy had absolutely no idea what awaited him. If Elena and Elysia succeeded with perfect results, then perhaps exterminating an Emperor-level accursed monster could be done accomplished any risk.
"Psst, Ely, shall we engage in a divine-class battle? The oceans will be enveloped in fierce storms, mountains will be turned upside down, and the world will be shaken with earthquakes. I became worried about the safety of Ella, Eve, Yuuki, and the others. They\'re still on safe island and it\'s only so close to this place." Sylvia whispered by bringing her face closer to Elysia.
"We will do something about it, Sylvi. But, when the divine-class battle occurs, I beg you to immediately go to the safe island to gather with the others. I will do something to protect all of you." Elysia bit her lower lips and looked at Sylvia\'s red eyes with a profound gaze.
"Ah, uhm, alright. I promised you to obey you. But, you\'re going with me too, right? We\'re just weak mortals who will only hinder and interfere with the fight between the divine beings on our side against that God-level accursed monster." Sylvia nodded and held Elysia\'s arm with some suspicion. She felt as if Elysia would not go with her.
"Hmm." Elysia couldn\'t answer with certainty.
Even so, Sylvia gave a small smile because she took Elysia\'s response as a yes.
She felt excited and challenged but also worried. After all, they were about to come across one of the worst monsters in history. Hope for victory flashed through her heart, but she could do nothing but pray.
A few hundred kilometers to the southwest, a messy white-haired man, was standing at the top of a tall tower with his arms folded in the eastern region of the Devil Continent. His blood-red eyes stared far to the northeast with a frown. "Sylvia\'s magic energy appeared over there and her aura sparkled as if to indicate she was in a pinch?"
Just a moment ago, he could clearly feel the turmoil from his daughter\'s aura. He also could feel his daughter\'s restlessness and despair. One conclusion and possibility, his daughter, was definitely in a difficult situation that might endanger her life!
"Damn!" Dylan couldn\'t think or consider anything anymore. He immediately sped up at his fastest speed to go to his daughter\'s energy trace.
The strongest Devil Emperor with the highest authority simply abandoned everything, including all his responsibilities, because he didn\'t want to lose his last family member.
"Hmm?" The Evil God looked at the red comet in the sky in astonishment. "He left with high anxiety. Did something sudden and urgent happen on his side? Anyway, where is he going?"
He glanced at a silver ball on his desk then smirked. "Something that could make Devil Emperor Dylan so uneasy, that little devil princess might just be getting into big trouble. Never mind, I just happen to be bored. Let\'s follow him and find out what\'s going on."
With that being said, the Evil God simply took the silver ball before his entire being disintegrated into a puff of black smoke and disappeared from the room.
At that time, a group of three people had just arrived at a hall with nine pillars inside. Blue torches and thousands of red runes decorated the gray walls of the hall.
An oppressive altar covered with some sinister aura was in the center of the hall. Hundreds of golden runes adorned it. Several big magic circles all over the floor flickered lights of various colors at regular intervals.
"Hehehe, hahaha! After a week of hardship and a thousand sufferings, I finally found this place. My grudge, my wrath, my suffering, and everything I\'ve been through... Everyone will receive much worse suffering. This world and everyone needs to pay for it! A desperation." A fat man with brown hair laughed loudly with both hands up.
His chubby face suddenly turned like a savage beast as his focus was fixed solely on the altar.
"Lord Magnus, is this the place you\'ve been looking for all along?" A tall, bulky man asked from behind his full-body armor.
"Yeah, this is the place and I\'m sure of it. The altar over there is the key to everything and the end of it all." Magnus grinned and walked casually into the hall. He then decided to walk in the air to avoid triggering any of the flickering magic circles.
"Father, does that sinister altar hold divine secrets and divine treasures? This place is like a hidden grave in the deepest part of a maze full of traps and dangers. We have lost many men in this place. I hope all our efforts are worth the results." The chubby woman pursed her lips while looking nervously to the right and left.
"Keke, of course, my precious. Those devils will receive divine retribution and we will have a God-level existence as our backing. You are the only one in my family who chooses to keep me company. I will give you the highest honor and guarantee of the one I once promised you." Magnus glanced back at his daughter with a strange glint in his eyes.
"Really? Ah, I know you are the most correct, father. They are all just despicable humans who are present when you are at your peak and run away when you are at your lowest. Those devils deserve to be exterminated for making our lives miserable. I-" The chubby woman just expressed her happiness and joy.
However, a sudden thump hit her nape, and her consciousness slowly began to fade.
