Chapter 1215 Cap 1213: Getting The Death Core
Pov Hela's:
We were being guided by a rare spiritual-type Demon who used possession to take over the body of a corpse to pass himself off as the Undead.
I was surprised when Zaya guided us to this person and I was even more surprised that it took me a while to notice what he really was, it took me a few minutes and a lot of closeness to notice which shows that the body he is possessing must have strong protections.
"I would appreciate it if you could stop looking at me like that, your killing intent is slowing us down."
"It's not often I come across a Demon like you, but I'm more interested in the body being possessed by you." (I)
He speaks normally, but his legs and arms are shaking, the murderous intent is simply due to the Infernal Lady's armor that I'm wearing, I'm lucky that everyone in this city has so much murderous intent that I go unnoticed, if it were anywhere else it would highlight the point a lot of not being able to walk on the streets.
"So you noticed..."
"She won't say anything and you know it or I wouldn't be here." (Zaya)
"I have no reason to talk about you, but if I have the possibility I would like to..." (I)
"Don't say anything else and tell your friend to stop trying to catch the Demon with her Curse or they won't get what they want."
Suddenly a deep voice carrying a Demonic Aura appears in a way that makes it impossible to distinguish the direction, at this point we were already inside an empty store in a less busy part of the city.
"I didn't do anything, I was just curious if it was possible since I've never tried it before." (Lilith)
"Will you receive us?" (Zaya)
"I am always willing to welcome a Lady of the Grave, but I need to know if those with you want anything from me."
"..." (I)
I stay silent and watch Zaya speak without looking at any specific place, the Demon wearing a corpse stopped and got on his knees without saying anything else as soon as this voice appeared, I looked at Lilith who seemed to not care about being discovered while I wait Zaya responds in our place, I don't want to act incorrectly in this place where a single carelessness can lead to death.
"They want a deal with you, I'm just a guide in bringing them here and I'd like to point out that you only stand to gain from this deal." (Zaya)
"Intriguing, bring everyone to my room..."
The voice weakens before disappearing at the end, only after that the Demon gets up taking us towards a wall that turns out to be an illusion, after going down some hidden stairs we arrive at a network of tunnels where we follow one of these tunnels before reaching a door that opens, as soon as we enter the door closes along with the Demon that guided us staying outside.
"Let's get straight to the point, what kind of contract do they want to make with me and what do I get out of it?"
---------------
It's been 8 days since the meeting with that Demon, we were together again in the same restaurant, and this time I chose to try a roasted heart, unfortunately, it was horrible, so I left it to Hellyos who ate it happily.
"I did my part, I've been waiting for days." (Lilith)
"Do you have any idea how difficult it is to do all this? Those Star flames aren't exactly under our control." (I)
"I don't like that plan, why not just blow up the entire city? I'm sure the Death Core wouldn't be damaged by anything we could do to it." (Lilith)
"We can't, this will only eliminate the type of enemies we are already capable of fighting against, but the Evil Gods will emerge unharmed, at that point it will be clear who did this." (I)
"I won't protect them if it comes to that." (Zaya)
"You don't like leaving these people behind, but there will always be bastards like these, you can't take care of them all, so be content with what you have." (I)
"Okay, but I still don't like this plan." (Lilith)
"Will you follow us throughout the mission, Zaya?" (I)
"Yes, I will not participate, but I will follow you." (Zaya)
"The plan starts in another 1 hour, but before that, I need to confirm with you another objective we have." (I)
"You just need to tell me what you need and I will guide you." (Zaya)
-------------------
After spending an hour I go to the basement of this restaurant together with everyone, then I wait for Lilith to finish her magic circle ritual and wave to her while throwing 20 spheres of crystallized blood into the magic circle.
"< Demonic Summon: Demon of Madness > ×20" (Lilith)
Soon the small room is full when 20 Demons with light purple skin, male and having red hair appear, each of them had red eyes and 1 Horn on the side of the head curving to the side like a half tiara, because of their Auras they looked like smaller Familiars, then they shouldn't have intelligence.
"Are they going to be useful? Isn't there anything smarter?" (I)
"They have intelligence, the spheres I played before were the minds of those I managed to drive crazy, these Demons can only be controlled by me and they have abilities to mess with the perception of those around them, they are also good at hiding in various ways." (Lilith)
"Then send them to the points I indicated." (I)
"Yes." (Lilith)
After all the Demons leave their separate ways as their appearances change, I erase Lilith's ritual to create my own using my blood, the Starfire that never went out during these exhausting days made my blood burn in the form of the magical ritual I will use.
When I finished I took a blood crystal from the master to use as the core of the magic ritual, as soon as the blood crystal was in place, the flames from every circle reacted differently extending to the core, I couldn't help but laugh at this as proof that everything was going well.
"< Necromancer Magic: Enslavement of the Dead >" (I)
During all these days I threw several crystals made from the master's blood onto the streets of the city without others noticing, the crystal blocks that form the floor of this city are blood crystals forming a massive protective magic for the entire city.
My master is a Son of the Blood Goddess, his Authority also includes blood already possessing thousands of bloodlines within him, there is no one in this world who has more Affinity with blood than he does, using his blood as a means to connect my magic With the city streets, I can use their power against them.
My magic will reach all the Undead in the city and only them, with my slavery magic reaching them both my maiga and the slavery magic that already marks them as slaves will collide canceling each other out, this will free all Living Dead.
Meanwhile, I look at Lilith who breaks a Christian between her fingers creating a wave of Aura that disperses without a trace, in the last few days she marked a Seal of revenge for each Undead she found, which were many, she just activated this seal that will send every Undead in the city frantic for revenge.
But of course that wasn't all, the entire city must now be covered in the Starfire I suffered from.
"Are you well?" (Hellyos)
"Yes, but we have to go, let's go." (I)
As soon as we leave we mix the curses fighting the Undead for a few minutes, the 4 Great eyes of the tower are suddenly covered in Starfire while the top of the tower explodes with a large Star Flame rising destroying the tower's defenses.
At that moment a large red portal opens on top of the tower with several Demons appearing from inside attacking the tower, one of them was a giant version of the one with whom we made the contract, 4 figures come out from inside the Tower with pressure crushing the entire city, with this opportunity we ran secretly to the tower avoiding fights along the way.
I went with 4 small boxes to seal the eyes covered in Starfire, each box for one of the eyes, meanwhile Hellyos was distracting the few defenders along with Lilith before we left, without looking back entering a shadow gate that gave us took him to the city tour in a cave we created 3 days ago.
Inside the Cave we waited 4 hours before half of Lilith's recommended Demons came back through it, summoning them again, but this time individually, apart from the dead one, the others had everything we wanted, the first of them to arrive had the Death Core in their hands, a black marble tombstone with a shin-shaped crystal embedded in it.
It was emitting a rich death energy that didn't scare even me, I had to use the Goddess of Death's blessing to create a Seal for it before I could put it away.
The other Demons came back with stolen things, so they won't know our real objective there, they will just remember that we stole several things and the blame will be on the Demons since both I and these summoned Demons are from the Demon Race.
But of course that wasn't all, we still need to get out of here, so we're running through the forest this time trying to hide our tracks while we head to our next objective.
