94 Episode 34 Sealed Cavern of the Deepest Realm Part 1 (1/2)
While we are traveling, beasts and monsters always block our way and attack us. Luckily, with Maple's swift and lethal attacks, the beasts are not really a threat. Even my magic is helping a lot especially if I burst out the flames from my gloves and shoes, the beasts are just easier to get killed. The amount of beast and monsters killed on the way contributed a lot to our points getting us the good amount for us to use once we get back.
The only problem right now though is the appearance of the demonic beasts similar to the undead wyverns and it's riders. Somehow, they acted as the direct upgrade from their normal beast counterparts making them be an effort to kill. It can be said that these monsters are much more vicious and dangerous to fight against. What is more, their attacks were something to reckon with. They cannot be underestimated at all.
”Anya, do these demonic beasts appeared quite often in the forest? You are an original inhabitant in this place so you might know it,” I asked.
”No, stepfather. Demonic Beasts do not exist in this world. It is normal to see beasts and monsters roaming around the place but having demonic beasts running rampant in the forest is something that I have not experienced before. This is the first time I have seen so many of them at all,” Anya answered who is riding on Kon's back along with Maple who is using her chain kunai to kill monsters that have a threat to us while trying to guard Maple against any aerial enemies.
”Indeed Kazuma. This is the first time I have seen demonic beasts existing in this world. This means the demonic power of the demons is slowly converting the monsters too much stronger monsters,” Maple said.
”But when we fought the undead wyverns last time, you quickly blurted its name. Then that means you have seen demonic beasts before?” I asked.
”Indeed I have. Demonic beasts are all common around my place particularly the undead wyverns but I have not seen them here. That is why I am surprised to see them existing in this place despite being a place only full of vicious monsters. It is not a recommendation for the demonic beast to exist here so it is quite impossible for them to walk here. But since the demons have already managed to enter this realm, then it would not be a surprise to see so many of them in one place.”
As we venture deeper and closer to our destination, the beasts' attacks are just getting more and more frequent. The normal beast attacks are also getting lesser and lesser and more on the demonic monsters. The atmosphere in the area is also getting darker and full of evil.
”I'm sorry master, it was indeed really hard to breathe in this place and it makes me weaker as time goes by,” Kon explained
”I see. Anya, come here, I will carry you in my back again,” I said to her in which she quickly obeyed.
After that, I recalled Kon back to my familiar realm. Looks like this atmosphere is the one causing the demonic transformations. It also proves that beasts are not susceptible to things like this since they are easily afflicted by it.
”We are close to the cavern Kazuma,” Maple said and pointed on the distance.
