On the other side of the forest, whereas the former stronghold of the Goblin stood was now turned into a ruin.There you can see a man with his glittering eyes flashed to the darkness. "Hmm... It should be here somewhere." Kyros said whilst his acute perception swept the encompa.s.sing area.
He was searching for the diminutive aura fluctuation that occurred when the demon who suddenly appeared inside the plainlan forest. The odd thing about it was; the demon materialized without him detecting its presence.
That is the reason why Kyros used his disciple peculiarity to lure out the rat out of its hiding place. Then when the target appeared, an unusual and strong demonic aura fluctuation rose deep inside the Goblin settlement.
"Odd... It should be here somewhere." Kyros mumbled, he unmistakably felt the demonic fluctuation near to this place.
Suddenly, he saw an unusual tome, lining up with an irregular pattern below the ground.
"What is this?" Kyros said in wonder as he darted his eyesight to the pitch-black tome with a carved pattern on its surface.
Seeing an ancient characteristic. Kyros exclaimed his astonishment. "What! How come there"s such a thing inside this forest?" He said whilst touching the dome to check if he wasn"t hallucinating.
Confirming that he wasn"t seeing things, Kyros" couldn"t help to frown his eyebrows in puzzlement.
"Wha—" Before he could even finish his words of confusion. Abruptly, the surrounding scenery shifted to another terrain. Kyros" was now standing in a strange place filled with a demonic aura.
"... Like I thought, dimensional transportation." Kyros said solemnly, even though he was sent to another area; he doesn"t lose his calm.
Staring at the front, Kyros found a six meters tall High-grade ogre sculpture made of dark crystalline with two sharp horns at its forehead.
When he saw the figure, Kyros" eyes became sharp. As he stimulated his senses to its greatest potential.
"This... It"s more troublesome than I antic.i.p.ated." Kyros muttered. Ignoring the altar in front of him, Kyros advanced his footsteps. While advancing Kyros movement was so swift that his body almost blending to the umbra of the place.
Then, Kyros" halted his movement when he saw the two-figure of low-grade demons who was carrying a basin of fresh blood as an oblation to the demonic platform.
"Lord Tarot, this humble servant of yours has come to bring the daily offering." While saying that the demon who was leading the way to the altar splashed the scarlet of life to the demonic figure. Suddenly the engraving from the sculpture shined with carmine light. Then a majestic and dignified voice echoed throughout the platform.
"Well done, maintain the daily blood ration for five more days, then I can descend into this planar without the detection of those annoying old-fogies from the human races." When Tarot finished his words. The brilliance of the altar dissipated.
The two low-grade demons kowtowed thrice in front of the altar before leaving.
"..." Kyros who was wearing a solemn expression became severe when he heard the altar"s words.
While holding his urge to go forward and destroy the demonic sculpture. Kyros" eyes gleamed with a radiant of golden light. "[Genesis.]"
Kyros activated his Innate skill, it was one of his inborn skills, the eye of genesis. This is the reason why he took the bow and arrow as his main weapon.
Then a wave of light vibrated throughout the place undetected. Mapping the whole site using his skill, Kyros" eventually found the place that he was looking for.
After he thoroughly examined the place. Kyros" found out that he was still in the nearby woods; it is just that his position was relocated deeper under the ground.
Two-hundred ft below the ground, Kyros was inside of a spiral dome with a size of 300x300 meters.
In a certain area, there was a group of captive peoples with different racial origins.
"... d.a.m.n demons!" Kyros gashed his teeth in rage. After knowing some of the captive persons were of human origin. His heart ached to know the cruel ending of those people who were held captive.
Their life essence became a supply to open a ma.s.sive dimensional rift to summon a higher being from the demon realm.
"... For the sake of those who died, I won"t let this pest succeed." Kyros proclaimed his determination to exterminate all the low-grade demons inside this dome.
a.s.serting, that Kyros figure disappeared inside the darkness.

On the outskirts of the plainlan forest.
Gellis who recovered his wounds with the of Toa was now facing Hobgoblin once more.
"... Hey, leader, are you sure you wanted to fight that unusual Goblin alone?" Poko asked in trouble.
"Isn"t it much better if we just teamed up and kill them all?" Saying that, Poko darted his gaze to his party members who ultimately re-grouped with them.
"Haa~ Let him be, look how crazed that idiot leader of ours," The one who only has the guts to call their party leader an idiot was Hilde while tilting her head in confusion. "Hey Poko, why didn"t you finish that Goblin off?"
Hilde pointed her finger at the listless body of Komoblin. "Is there any merit for us keeping that monster alive?"
Seeing her in the bewilderment. Poko said. "There"s something unusual from those two Goblins, it would be better to keep them alive "for now"," Poko emphasized his point on his words when conversing with Hilde else; their discussion would always lead to an argument.
"Hmm, is that so?" She said while shifting back her gaze to the two.
"Gaaah!" Hobgoblin squealed in anger after Poko and the others arrived; he already lost his will to fight. Nonetheless, he still kept struggling as if waiting for a miracle to arrive.
"Hahaha! Is that all you got? You cheeky green b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Once is enough for me to learn my lesson." While saying that, Gellis activated his offensive skill once more. "[Aura Slash!]"
A one and a half meter silvery aura blade flew toward Hobgoblin. However, Gellis wasn"t done yet. After their quick bout, he already knew that a single Aura Slash won"t be sufficient if he wanted to defeat his current foe.
With that in mind, Gellis simultaneously activated his Sword Mastery Skills.
*??????~*
After parrying with Gellis onslaught, Hobgoblin ran out of gas. What is more, the power he was currently using was only a borrowed one? The recoil from his body is much worse than he antic.i.p.ated.
"Haa... Haaa... Ha..." Hobgoblin exhaled a mouthful of air for breathing. Nevertheless, Gellis wasn"t kind enough to wait for him to recover.
"[Sword Bash!]" Drawing his sword upward, Gellis smashed the dull part of his smeared silvery sword to Hobgoblin"s skull.
*??????*
The skull of Hobgoblin burst like a shattered watermelon whilst his flesh scattered on the muddy ground; tinting it with his blue"s blood.
Staring at the dead body of his opponent, Gellis wasn"t satisfied at all, as if releasing his dissatisfaction he released another aura slash to cut Hobgoblin"s body into two.
Then the Demon"s Blade that he was using dissipated to nothingness—with a shriek of a demonic aura bawled in the fit of rage to the nearby woods.
*?????!*
After losing its temporary user, the Demon"s Blade returned to its original owner.
Watching the spectacle unfolded, Gellis darted his eyesight to another Goblin who already lost its will to resist.
"Hey you, I know you can talk and you can understand the word I say." Gellis went toward Goblin"s direction.
"..." Komoblin, who was lying on the muddy ground, lift up his head and stared at Gellis with bloodshot eyes. "Ki—kill me..." Komoblin stubbornly said. However, he underestimated Gellis" aberration.
"Don"t worry, whether you wanted to tell me or not, you would eventually do so." Saying that Gellis went forward leisurely whilst humming a melodic voice. Nevertheless, for him, it was the most horrifying note.
"Aaah... No—no, I"m begging you, ple—please spare my life!" Komoblin quavered when he saw Gellis was about to reach him. After unlocking his intellectual apt.i.tude. His fear of death was much stronger than before.
"Hehehe... Don"t worry, it would be over in no time." With that said, Gellis started his inhuman torture.
"AAAHH!"
Then, the scream of Komoblin"s agony reverberated throughout the encompa.s.sing forest.
