A Demon's Journey

The Archangel proved to be much stronger than the Demon Emperor and beat it black and blue. This Demon Emperor was forced to leave, ditching nearly all his subordinates in Lamhilhan Theocracy. The direction he fled to was unsurprisingly the Glerian Kingdom.

Nudar couldn\'t help but stare at Margeria. She was also an Archangel who had been summoned from the Pinhian Republic. This nation was much farther away from the Glerian Kingdom compared to Lamhilhan Theocracy. However, still, Margeria was summoned to deal with the Demon Emperor and not the Lamhilhan Theocracy\'s Archangel.

However, this wasn\'t strange. It was mostly because of the religion dominant within the Glerian Kingdom. It was the Holy Church!

Meanwhile, the religion dominant in the Lamhilhan Theocracy was none other than Radiant Church. These two churches were very different and hardly interacted with one another.

The Holy Church cultivated the laws of the Divine Ardor, while the Radiant Church cultivated the laws related to Light Ardor. Both had their advantages and disadvantages. And against the demons, the Light Ardor was considered the most effective.

It was due to this reason that the Archangel of the Lamhilhan Theocracy defeated the Demon Emperor with ease, and Margeria couldn\'t accomplish the same.

Nudar guessed that this wasn\'t because of the two possessing different attributes of Holy Ardor but also because the Demon Emperor must have gained significant strength while he recovered from his injuries. Maybe he gained an insight into a destructive law and used it to easily defeat Margeria.

That made sense.

Anyway, back to the demons here in this Underground Labyrinth. These were remnants of the Demon Emperor\'s subordinates.

When the Demon Emperor waged war against the Lamhilhan Theocracy, his forces swept the entire kingdom and spread everywhere. And when the Demon Emperor was forced to escape, his forces were hunted by the Celestials and the religious factions.

These demons were naturally terrified as they were hunted by the Celestials. They tried to hide nearby, and some lucky groups found an Underground Labyrinth where they hid and waited for news from their Demon Emperor!

The Celestials naturally didn\'t ignore such a massive issue. They looked for Elves with great sensing and concealment abilities. These elves were given the task of overseeing the Underground Labyrinth secretly.

They were to inform the Celestials as soon as any demon left the Underground Labyrinth.

The entire group was startled to hear this information.

Nudar asked Jander curiously, "Does that mean you can contact them?"

Jander nodded while smiling brightly. He immediately pulled out an azure stone and handed it to Nudar.

"This was handed to me by an Angel. She told me that I must immediately contact her in case the demons come out of the Underground Labyrinth!" He spoke rather proudly.

Jander had absolutely no idea that Margeria was an Archangel and Nudar possessed an identity even more revered among the Celestials. If he knew, he would have already prostrated himself to Nudar and Margeria.

Margeria frowned upon noticing that this was a voice transmission stone with the insignia of the Radiant Church.

Meanwhile, Nudar had an amused smile on his face as he stared at this Radiant Church insignia. He recalled the Radiant Church\'s branch in the Sinyalian Kingdom that had been demolished because of Azaroth.

Should he repeat that feat here?

Nudar shook his head and handed the stone to Margeria.

Margeria instantly understood what Nudar wanted her to do. She started injecting the stone with her Celestial Ardor.

Meanwhile, Dylan and Camille stared at Margeria with puzzled looks. Dylan peered at the stone and curiously inquired, "What are you doing, Master?"

"Contacting the Celestials in the Lamhilhan Theocracy and summoning them here," Margeria responded casually.

Camille frowned slightly as she spoke, "Didn\'t you mention that you belong to the Holy Church? I have heard that your church doesn\'t interact much with the Radiant Church. Would they heed your requests?"

Margeria snorted and replied, "It\'s better than what you humans have. Besides, I have another plan in my mind."

This plan actually belonged to Nudar, who telepathically narrated it to Margeria.

The azure stone stopped shining, and a cold voice rang out, "What is the emergency?"

Margeria spoke with a rather anxious voice, "I am a Wood Elf assigned by the Celestial Race! I wish to inform you that the Demons hiding in the Underground Labyrinth near the Cantalla district have emerged outside! They appear to be rather bloodthirsty and are heading towards the nearby villages! Please arrive as soon as possible!"

"What?! The demons have emerged! What is the cultivation of the strongest demon?" The voice on the other side of the communication stone appeared startled and inquired rather worriedly.

Margeria frowned a bit as she quickly added, "I don\'t know for sure. All I can sense is an unfathomable power from it. It\'s as if his power has enveloped the surroundings and is eating it."

"A Demon King has emerged?!" The voice on the other side of the azure stone exclaimed loudly.

"…I don\'t know for sure," Margeria still spoke.

The voice soon added, "Don\'t worry, an Angel will be dispatched quickly! It will reach the Cantalla district a week later. Make sure to conceal yourself and survive!"

The connection was cut-off.

Dylan, Camille, and even Jander were puzzled as they heard Margeria blatantly lie about the situation.

"Why are you summoning an Angel here? Wouldn\'t the Angel be angry if she finds out that you were lying?" Camille inquired curiously.

Margeria turned towards Dylan and Nudar before speaking, "It\'s all because of him. I want him to receive the Divine Blessings as soon as possible."

Dylan was startled, and a heartfelt smile soon appeared on his face. He thought that Margeria was referring to him.

Poor guy had no idea that Margeria was talking about Nudar.

Camille thought about it for some moments and decided that meeting an Angel early would be a good idea. Margeria was a former Archangel, and an Angel from another religion wouldn\'t make things difficult for her.

"Let\'s set up a camp around here," Nudar suggested.

Meanwhile, Jander was utterly speechless at what he had just witnessed. He had seen Margeria lie to a Celestial Angel and was worried that once the truth was unveiled, the Angel would punish him for concealing the truth.

Jander accompanied the group and helped them set up a camp nearby. Nudar pulled out a rather strong wine and shared it with everyone.

Dylan and Camille were utterly drunk. In his drunken state, Dylan tried to make a move on Margeria, but he was slapped powerfully.

The slap threw Dylan some distance away, but he remained unharmed.

Jander was also rather drunk and laid down on the ground before closing his eyes. It had been a long time since he enjoyed such a deep and peaceful.

On the other hand, Camille was intoxicated and proceeded to approach Nudar. Nudar retaliated by stripping her naked. Camille began to experience throbbing pain and mind-numbing ecstasy as she joined Nudar and Margeria in their threesome.

Dylan had no idea that Nudar was making love with beauties he thought belonged to him while he was sound asleep.
