Chapter 345: Mirrored Lake - The Chasm (1/2)

”What?!” Eric gravely shouted, withdrawing from the room with a flicker of light.

Rising from my spot, I slowly followed him outside, where he hovered over the little village. Flying to his side, I looked towards the west. Noticing the faint residue of fire, I could not say I was surprised. They appeared only three days away, assuming one knew how to move around the island.

”They are heading to the Moutain of Dreams. The Heart of the Sa'ar.” He bitterly muttered with a long face.

”how long till they reach?” I asked, hoping I had enough time.

”Three weeks without a guide, or two with one. However, based on where they are now, they seem to be taking Sparrows' Edge. A path is only known by those that live upon Sa'ar.”

”Slaughter them all,” I darkly told, ”Use poison if needed. There are about two thousand people. Make it quick.”

”You would brand me a coward?” He scornfully barked, gleaming with an ingrain pride I had not seen till now. ”I have not once used poison, nor do I plan on it.”

”I don't particularly care, Eric. Zanris and Silvia, two Devils in the Realm of World, will arrive in a week's time. Should I not see results, I am sure you will understand what I will do.”

Narrowing his wolf-like eyes towards me, I felt a trace of divinity flash beneath his steely blue eyes. Recognizing that glint, he glared. ”You will pay for your sin one day, Arsene. All the lives you have taken, one day Karma will find you.”

”I expect results the next time we meet,” I indifferently stated, tossing him a talisman with my Crest placed upon it.

Making my way from the village, none stood within my path, all too fearful of making a move. Placing my cloak back only my body, I found my way back into the jungle. Sensing my Crest a half days journey, I decided not to walk but fly.

Consuming my body with demonic Qi, the concept of light and lightning glimmered around my body as I tore through the air shattering various barriers. Ignoring wind resistance due to my understanding of wind, my speed only increased, leaving only a streak of ethereal darkness glittering like stars that faded into the vast expanse.

Arriving at the Mirrored lake, in less than a minute, I landed upon the surface of the lake near the Ceriloat buzzing with power. Feeling my Demonic Qi overflowing without limit. All seven turned with a dangerous glint.

Ceriloat was known for being territorial and aggressive. They had powerful shells that made it virtually impossible for those below World to enter. That was not to say it could not be done by those in my realm. Ceriloat were, after all, Spirit grade creatures with World-level defenses. Their eyes, mouth, and rectum were the most viable choice.

Charing upon the surface of the water, the Ceriloat entire body crackled with thunder as it appeared before me faster than any Spirt Master could see. However, I was fully prepared as their claws tore into a realistic illusion that was far different than what I could create in the past.
