Chapter 761: Evil Guest

“It really was worth it to personally come here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have known that things had developed like this already.”
Dark mist enveloped my body as floating dark flames followed behind me. This faint light would make all low-level undead instinctively afraid of and retreat from me.
“Only you would come up with the idea to envelop Holy Light in a lantern made from the power of death. Still, aren’t you afraid that you’ll attract an Undead Emperor by using Holy Light right in the undead’s main territory?”
Harloys didn’t have a high opinion of my little invention, but so far, we had continued here unimpeded.
The low-level undead would instinctively retreat from us, and the high-level intelligent undead rarely bothered with things that weren’t their own business. As for the undead guards… I had already prepared a fake Asolivis identity, but when considering that Sandro had prepared it for me, it probably counted as a real identity.
Still, I kept feeling like the situation was getting worse as I walked farther into Asolivis.
The pillar of black light reaching the sky was still present. However, the negative energy of death had lessened significantly. Instead, I smelled a familiar stench of sulfur that caused me to recall the “warm and friendly” residents of the lower planes…
“What is there to even think about? The devils are right before you.”
“Silly cat, must you always have a retort for everything? How’s the situation here? Are they still ‘communicating?’”
I was finding it harder and harder not to have Harloys… or her abilities, to be exact. I had Harloys’s clones help me watch over the situation here and gather information while also hearing exactly was was going on. She really was so convenient and useful.
Although I was joking, I was actually in a really bad mood.
A jinxer was someone who would cause explosions everywhere he went, even if the explosions weren’t his own fault. But with my luck, this was no longer at the level of explosions. This was basically having volcanoes erupt everywhere that I went.
“Why is it another Chaos Main God? Can’t they just enjoy themselves without having to find me?”
Main God level existences would be as obvious as fermented fish unless they intentionally concealed their presence. They would be really stinky… I meant that they’d have far too much presence, reaching the point where even just a little was difficult for ordinary people to handle.
Sarwenstan wasn’t trying to hide himself. Even without seeing his gigantic dragon body which was several hundred meters long, his orderly domain of negative energy was also like his personal signature.
Devils were constantly increasing in number. As time passed, the devil army was becoming stronger with every moment. Due to the summoning of the Main God Devil Lord, the devils would bring out their utmost strength due to the devils’ pyramid-like hierachy.
I had no intention of getting any closer. I didn’t want to test Sarwenstan’s sensing abilities, nor was there any need to continue investigating here.
The Dimensional Door here was the highest-level permanent Dimensional Door. Once such a Dimensional Door was activated, it would be impossible to stop unless it was completely destroyed. As for challenging the Devil Lord Main God and his personal army all by myself… well, I still wanted to live a little longer.
The devil army was becoming stronger with every moment. Maybe it wouldn’t be as destructive or explosive as the demon wave, but a devil army would be super troublesome to deal with even by the standards of the Chaos Abyss’s bloody battles.
I directly recorded what I saw with a memory crystal. The human allied army wouldn’t be able to get any rest. I originally intended on immediately returning, but then, to my surprise, I met someone I knew.
“Isn’t that mummy Undead Lord Sandro’s personal servant and translator?”
While Roland was busy having a headache over the devils’ sudden appearance, Anina also met with major trouble right after she returned to her home, the Darkness Plane.
Originally, she had been quite careful already to be on guard against other Undead Emperors trying to rob her of the tremendous amount of souls she had. Yet, she encountered someone with nefarious intentions after she finally returned to her home territory.
The Darkness Plane was a rare plane with a complete lack of light. It would be quite difficult for ordinary people to imagine the emptiness and iciness in a world with no light. Even the intelligent undead wouldn’t have an easy time in an eternal night. Anina’s goal in returning with all these souls was to liven up this plane again.
However, an insane wicked guest had arrived without being invited. He had destroyed everything before him, apparently in search of something or someone. Several hundred Undead Lords had already died to him before Anina’s return.
This was rather abnormal as a Death Plane would have nothing at all apart from undead and negative energy. It would be meaningless to look for anything here that wasn’t related to the undead.
Right after she returned, Anina discovered that this uninvited guest’s goal was actually herself.
He had been waiting all this time for her to return.
“Roland? No, you’re Karwenz, the Abyss Prince!”
Anina was quite familiar with this face. She instantly realized who he was.
“So you’re Anina? Ha, you’re quite a beauty. It’s such a pity that you’re a Chaos Girl. Give me your soul and meet your fate.”
The blond-haired prince who wore blood-red armor wielded a magic sword as he smiled confidently and told Anina the last words she would ever hear. He viewed even an Undead Emperor, an existence which would dominate in any dimension, as nothing more than a weakling that he could easily slaughter.
“Kill him!” Anina screamed out of instinctive fear.
Countless undead emerged from every corner. The Death Planes were like heaven for the undead. This was the home turf of the Undead Emperors. The entire dimension trembled under the summons of the highest-level undead existence here.
A grand undead army where the Blood Tribe nobles were only the frontliners appeared. Abominations which were several hundred meters tall were mere tanks, while the bone dragon hordes were nothing more than convenient modes of transportation.
However, Karwenz only shook his head while smiling condescendingly in front of the endless undead army.
“Why does everyone have to struggle, even though it’s meaningless?”
Three hours later, the entire Darkness Plane was annihilated, while Karwenz took Anina’s soul away with him, leaving only one comment behind in the rubble consisting of countless undead bodies.
“Only 19 more Chaos Girls to go…”
