Chapter 86: The demons' lair (1)

"You two are quiet types? What a bummer! I thought I'd have someone to kill time with!" The orange-haired girl swayed her arms and legs in irritation, for Aimee and Seraphina weren't interested in exchanging words with her.

Well, it was quite amazing for her to be like that in this hideous place.

Was it her coping method, or was she herself despite hanging for some time now here?

If it was the latter, then she surely had a loose screw!

Aimee ended up getting interested in it and started a conversation with her, "How long have you been here?"

"Oh? Just a month!" The girl replied, "Right! I should have asked for your names already! Wait, I have asked, but you two stayed silent! Cough! Uhum! Would you like to inform this lady about your name, auntie?"

"Auntie?" Aimee's temple popped with a vein, her face twisting at the mention of this term.

Sensing that she had said a bad word, the girl smiled and didn't go back, "Yes! We can tell it with the naked eye, can't we? Look at yourself and me! Hehe! Anyway, I'm Mayun!"

Aimee swallowed her displeasure before continuing the talk with Mayun.

"Aimee," She eyed up the small witch from head to toe, "You seem sane for someone who's been hanging there for a month."

"It's because I was caught alone! I left my home alone to meet with my mother and ended up in this demon's lair because of a misfortune!" Mayun explained, then got into the details about this whole place, "I heard and inferred things on my own, so take this with a grain of salt! There are three domains in this place! One belongs to the boss snake, the second to the demon overseer up below us… and the third to another demon coming out and in as he pleases!"

Controlling the boss anaconda meant that the demons had command over all of its kin, further stretching the monsters' influence in the Region Fritz. That wouldn't have been possible without some tempering, though.

Which the demons did by sacrificing the boss' intelligence in exchange for vast body and physical strength. In such a terrifying long body, the poison it produced was naturally stronger and in higher quantity, with the boss deferring to the demons' orders.

"That's not all!"

"You sure know a lot."

Mayun added that the demons forcefully taught the boss a fog skill, enhancing the domain's protection.

She learned all of it by bothering the overseer when he was thirsty for soda, yet no demonesses were in sight to heed his orders.

Mayun was proud of that!

"You're proud of being annoying?"

"Indeed I am!"

"What about other domains?"

"Not much information here, auntie! I am trapped here, just like you! Oh! But I know what they are planning soon and what this lake below us is!"

"Spit it out."

"Ah, you seem like a noble woman, yet your language is so foul!" Mayun twitched from Aimee's death stare before drawing a wide smile on her face, "This lake below us is terrifying only if you have teammates trapped in another demon's domain. Otherwise, it will just keep your mana fixed in your bodies, depriving you of strength and skills. I heard they hang people up here to feed the lake with something…"

That was as far as Mayun's knowledge went about the lake. She couldn't feel its mental assaults on herself because she was alone and had no one to bother her.

She was also a mentally strong girl.

Because even in this despair and seemingly inescapable fate, she believed in her luck and future, staying strong so that she could leave this place once someone entered it to destroy it or save them.

In other words, she was waiting for a white knight on a white horse!

"What about this overseer? Does he leave… he does, but does he sleep?" Aimee recalled that this demon man would have a break in a week, which was nothing but debauchery time with Susan and other succubi, thus, she corrected herself and asked her question differently.

Mayun nodded, "He does sleep. I think he will soon take a nap! Right! He usually goes to sleep when this woman above us gets too tired to scream, losing her consciousness. Her voice triggers him somewhat!"

"Thanks," Aimee thanked the girl.

"Pleasure is on my side, auntie!" Mayun sneered.

Which she soon regretted as Aimee and Seraphina were back to ignoring her.

Hanging helplessly, Aimee did her best to block all cries and screams of other victims, focusing on the task that would give her a way to assist Hunter in the impending future.

It went without saying that he would take risks to leave this domain with them two intact.

And to achieve that goal, he perhaps would turn himself into a demon.

Which Aimee would wholeheartedly accept and love him more even if the whole world was against him!

'We're in cuffs that take away our mana… and some are losing consciousness and mind as I think… but there's a concept that connects me to this lake. Souls… those demons are scratching off the souls of women hanging there. This concept must be too advanced even for them, so they need preparations. If I snatch those souls for myself…'

At that moment, Aimee got an idea.

A dangerous idea that could maybe end her life.

What if she just were to plunge into this lake?

Would she be able to use all of it for herself? Aimee doubted that.

But that would be a much faster and more significant boost than trying to yank the liquefied soul to herself from this afar.

The problem was that Aimee didn't know how much time she had and what Hunter was up to.

Henceforth, she decided that drowning herself in this lake was her last resort.

And for now, she would extend her senses to snatch as many lifespans as possible for herself.

Which was a power she could use despite being trapped here… for obvious reasons.

"Seraphina… do you remember the content of your hiding skill?"

"Content?" Seraphina weakly looked up at Aimee's face, then shook her head, "Impossible."

Aimee smiled, "I know it's impossible to remember a book, but you should keep in mind the core points of it just because you perfectly use your hiding skill. I'd love to listen about them… so I can shorten the time needed to learn this skill."

"Did I hear a skill book?" Mayun's eyes twinkled, "I can help you!"

These two ignored her.

Mayun pouted and swayed her legs, managing to scratch Aimee's leg, "Listen, Auntie! I will tell you who I am! I'm the prodigy of the First Magic Association! Mayun, the daughter of the black witch! My mom is residing in the First Hunter Union, so you must know her if you're hunters!"

Aimee and Seraphina exchanged glances before turning to the orange-haired girl.

Mayun loftily lifted her chin and smiled, "That's right! Writing skill books is already a piece of cake for me! If you plan to acquire a skill to escape this place, I can help you learn it in less than a minute! Of course, that is, Auntie, if you are as talented as me. Also, I must know about the skill's type, grade, and origins! Let's talk and escape this place!"

Meanwhile, Hunter was following Lothar to his domain.

"There's no inequality in the demon world. A woman and a man can become strong as long as they have what it takes to rise. There's no prejudice against a gender, and one treats others the way they want. Only strength can rewrite the desires within our blood. Which is why you are a perfect existence to join our side, since you singled yourself out in this female-dominated world as a man," Lothar said in a casual and even slightly excited tone.

Hunter's achievements weren't anything big, at least those known to the world. But him killing the direct descendant of the guild leader of the hunter union was already enough to tell about his great future.

He had balls.

He had the strength to go against women.

That much was enough.

"Sounds odd since it's Lucifer who cursed the world," Hunter nailed what bothered him in Lothar's speech, drawing a sigh from him.

Lothar replied, "There were complications at the end of this final battle. In the end, big brother Lucifer failed to seize this world for himself, but he achieved a perfect stalemate for everyone. We shall continue his wish and find a way to bring him back."

Complications… fail… stalemate… and that wish.

Hunter had so many questions, yet he could tell that Lothar wouldn't answer even one of them, sharing what only the best of the best knew.

Perhaps he himself was too weak to know everything.

"There's a saying in the village… or maybe even across the continents… that half of the world drowned in the monsters would be enough to bring back Lucifer," Hunter brought out a warning or maybe a tale permeating a lot of homes, uniting humans to fight monsters and demons.

Or else, another great war would unfurl in their world.

Hearing this, Lothar burst out laughing, "You see… Hunter. If it was this easy, we would have already drowned half of this world in the monsters carrying Big Brother Lucifer's curse."

He said that with a casual chuckle trailing those words.

Which sent shivers down Hunter's spine.

Were there so many monsters in this world? Well, Hunter heard that skies were dominated by monsters developed from Lucifer's curse, so perhaps that was true.

'That's true… if the skies are teeming with those monsters, what stops demons from ordering them to fall off clouds to assault the world, drowning it in Lucifer's curse?'

At that point, Hunter knew the answer.

The World Order.
