Chapter 684: [Allen Doll]
“That’s the plan,”
Allen smiled bitterly and replied honestly.
Baang! two to three glasses broke as Mia, Celty, Alkrasha turned towards Allen with a very, as in, really really angry expressions. Although they have realized this as well but still it being confird was another matter.
“Allen, you bastard!! Can’t you even take a break?!”
Mia cried out in anger.
“Allen, you’re being too much, you know!” Alkrasha for the very first ti in a while glared at Allen in rage. Her expression was dark and full of fierceness that could make even a psychopath turn cold and run away. The couch she was sitting creak and the floor even started to crack. “This is not a laughing matter! I don’t care if you want to go and settle debts but if you went there alone, that is yet another matter! Your idiocy knows no bounds! Can’t you even understand once what we are feeling?!” She shrieked with a cold voice.
“Husband… I’m with them as well… going there is tantamount to suicide. Even if I die, I wouldn’t let you go there alone!”
Hearing their furious cries, Allen cannot help but sigh. Although he was feeling warm inside, he doesn't have a choice. The world won't wait for him.
“I don’t have a choice… the Demon World is not only a very dangerous place, but it was also the worst place for you to go. In the Demon World, Miasma and negative energy covered the world with greater density… they can corrupt not only souls but also the mind. It was one of the reasons, why no one dared to venture the Demon World, even among the Celestial Gods. Even if I want you to go with , I can’t. For , it would be nothing but a spring breeze. It wouldn't affect at all. I am a Demon and the miasma will instead empower . But if all you all step into that land, you will be corrupted…”
“That’s…”
Hearing Allen's explanation, the girls were shocked and was at a loss.
“I know this is hard to take… but it’s not like I would be alone. I might not be able to take Laura with but I still have Asmodeus. And also, I have so friends I can try to talk to and possibly ask for help in the Demon World… I would not be helpless…”
As Solomon, Hell might be the territory of his enemies, but he is also not helpless there. He too has so of his acquaintances. Though, them helping him would be another matter.
“Master, you’re saying… I can’t co with you?!” Laura’s face paled as the cup in her hand fell on the table, spilling the tea in shock.
Allen appeared before her and strokes her hair, “I’m sorry… but not for now.” He muttered as he gently caressed Laura’s belly. “Although you might be fine, since your power cos from mine, and you're a half-demon. But you are pregnant. I don’t know how the atmosphere in the Demon World can affect you and our child. And I don’t want to take any chances.”
“But Master…”
“…give it up, Laura… you can’t go even if he wanted…” Layla sigh and shook her head with a wry smile. “Think about yourself and your child first…”
“Sister Layla…” Laura bit her lips, appearing sad.
Allen smiled faintly and hugs her, “I’m going to be fine…” he turned towards the won looking at him. “I know the Demon World like the back of my hand. Besides, even though Mammon and Vergil treated as an enemy, I am still a Demon Prince… my [Authority] towards demons hasn’t been forgotten. In fact, if one thinks about it, unlike the Celestial Realm, I would be much safer in the Demon World.”
“Even still, Allen…this is the Demon World we are talking about. Can’t you really bring soone with you…?”
Allen shook his head, “Unless one has the aspect of Demonity and evil, no one would be able to survive the Demon World’s corruption. One contact from it will awaken the [Original Sin] and you will be corrupted in just a few seconds. It might not change you physically but ntally and spiritually, you would surely be affected by it. One must know, the potency of [The Fell] was much higher in the Demon World...”
"... ..."
“…in any case, I am there… protecting master’s well-being is my duty…” Asmodeus declared with a faint smile, all while drinking a fruit wine. Among the people present, Asmodeus was one of the calst. After all, just like what Allen said, even if he returns to that world, it would be like a dragon returning to the sea.
Mammon and Vergil might be the ones ruling the current Demon World, but it’s not it’s entirely.
The Demon World has never been unified, even with Lucifer’s Era… most Demons care with only their own well-being.
So has even isolated themselves from the mundane affairs—Mammon’s Rule was just on the surface.
There has never been a true Demon King again…after the Original King: Satan…
“Besides, it’s not like we would be alone and helpless,” Asmodeus continued, “Just like what Master had said… the Demon World still has so people we can pull towards us. The original 72 Pillars would never go down just like that…
“But didn’t you say, the 72 Pillars are now under Vergil’s control…?” Liu Muxiao asked worriedly.
“Indeed, that’s the case…” Asmodeus replied, “However, not all… so gone missing, so left. While there were also so who joined Vergil’s cause because of hatred and vengeance.” She then turned towards Allen. “…the Celestials hurting and killing our master has left a large wound in our hearts. Most of us carried hatred because of it…”
“… …”
“…we might have low chances of pacifying their anger and follow Master again…but at the very least, they wouldn’t be able to do anything such as hurting the master and attempting to kill him… that is without a doubt.”
“… …” Layla and the others know that they would never be able to convince Allen otherwise. After all, who knows Allen’s character and personality better than them?
This novel's true ho is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
This is Allen they were talking about.
Once he makes up his mind to do anything, he has it put in hand right away. And there’s no use arguing with him, for he knows exactly what he wants and nothing will stop him from getting it. Once he makes a decision a thousand oxen wouldn’t be able to pull it in another direction!
Thus, they could only sigh in distress to show dissatisfaction, but also no longer opposed. Stopping him was rely their duties as soone who loved him and cared for him… at the sa ti, they could also not force him to do sothing against his will, because they love him and didn’t dare hurt him.
Allen saw their reactions and smiled gently. A warm feeling that ca from the soul surged out as though a spring inside his body every ti he saw them. The warmth passed to his limbs and five organs, giving him comfort and happiness.
“You don’t need to make such expressions. I already prepared everything…” When a wave of his hand, a coffin with glass cover suddenly appeared in front of them, startling the won. But what caused them to feel dumbfounded was that—lying inside the coffin was actually—Allen…!
That’s right it was another person that looks extrely like Allen…!
“Allen, this is…?!”
Layla exclaid in astonishnt.
Allen smiled faintly, “It’s a doll… a doll of …”
“A Doll??!”
“It’s what I have been making all this ti…and sowhat one of my best creations yet. With Roia’s help, I was able to create a homunculus of mine…of course; it has no consciousness or soul. You can say it that it was truly that of a living doll… however, unlike my clones, I can directly control it as if it was my own body. It is also connected by through 'Soul Essence' So no matter where I go, through it… I will still be able to contact you.”
“… …”
“Even if my connection was severed for so unknown reasons, unlike when my clone disappeared, it wouldn’t and I could easily connect my consciousness to it easily…” Allen explained as he strokes the glass lid. “Furthermore, it was made from a Monster King-class body as well as many other precious materials, therefore, I can channel at most 60-70% of my true strength. With it, I would be able to help you if you needed my help, anyti…”
Though, making it was just too hard, especially when maintaining the balance. Also, he had consud almost all of his and Roia’s precious materials, making him almost gone broke and penniless. Although slightly weaker, but it was almost comparable to that of a God’s Incarnation. In addition, unlike when he lends [Schwarz] his [Lagiacruz] incarnation, losing most of his power as a True Dragon, with this doll he can easily channel his powers without losing much—though, it’s just that, he needed to control it manually.
It has no free will, only an open empty vessel.
Sothing like that of a Robot, or a Biorobot.
And also, since it has no consciousness and basically a living doll, it was treated as an item by the World’s Law and so Mia and the others can take it with them back in the Mortal without any problem or worries for the Law to acting upon it.
Hearing Allen’s words, Mia and the others finally breathe a sigh of relief. Now that they had seen him again, parting with him again without knowing when they would once again see each other was like a nail piercing through their hearts.
Although they wouldn’t be able to be with the true Allen, at the very least, they wanted to be with him, talk to him—at least, see him and know that he was fine and safe.
Allen smiled faintly, knowing their worries and concerns. He revealed another good news, “…aside from this, actually…with the help of Roia’s Dungeon, you can now co here and see anyti you wanted. You can now treat this world as a rendezvous point for all of us~”
“Is that true…?!”
Mia was the one who snapped in her daze and exclaid in pleasant surprise.
“Yes, Roia’s Dungeon is now connected to [Solheim], though it was not easy—” Allen turned at Roia who just shrugged her shoulders. At this mont, Romiea was now his new tad beast. Her Title was Dungeon Keeper, and race; Dungeon Spirit.
Because of her rebirth, Allen was able to ta her easily than he had imagined, especially when she let all of her guards down. However, connecting the entire Dungeon into Solheim was much harder and consud an enormous amount of magic power than he had expected. It even depleted his magic power in one go due to the size of the Dungeon and caused Allen to rely on an external source of power after a very long ti of not using such a thod.
Even with his more than one or two energy plug-ins, his enormous magic power reserve was easily depleted in an instant. If it was a normal person with the sa level as him, even if they had used their life energy as fuel, they would never be able to accomplish such an absurd action.
Although they cannot appear in the Celestial Realm or any other world using it as a corridor or a short-cut as much as Allen couldn’t bypass the Law of World to return into the mortal world, they can still use Roia’s Dungeon as a checkpoint in order to reach Solheim, through the use of the Gate Mirror, Allen had created. And so now, even if Allen leaves Roia’s Dungeon, the [Solheim] would still remain connected to it.
To achieve all this, Allen had wrecked his brain for a few months and even toiled for almost four to six months without break. Aside from Roia’s end of the deal, he had to fulfill, he was also making a perfect vessel as well as many powerful artifacts that would help Mia and the others in their battles for the Mortal World. If he didn't have the ability to create perfect clones, multitasking all of them would be impossible even to soone like him!
… …
It’s been 12 days since Mia had arrived in the Ruinos Castle and during these past few days, Mia and Allen were almost inseparable. She even went with him around the Nine Mountains to visit the Dragon King, one of the two Monster Kings present in the Dungeon; P’thala as well as explore the Dungeon of the Ninth Mountain.
Although it was hard for her to adapt so suddenly when she arrived at the 50th level, but with Allen’s help and protection, she was sowhat able to in just a few days—though the heat that was comparable to sun was as if she was standing in the middle of a Desert with a glaring sun. Fortunately, her clothes made by Allen personally have so convenient enchantnt on them such as [Internal Cooling] and [Temperature Adjustnt], if not it would surely be extrely unbearable!
Even still, with battles on the 50th floor, her level skyrocketed at a rapid speed, almost reaching Layla and the others level in just a short amount of ti. Riding a bus to level was really almost cheat-like.
As for Allen, these past few days were quite blissful. But one thing that bothered him was the fact that Ares and his two sons had disappeared in the 50th level, who knows where they are now. If only they had listened to his advice and went towards Olympus to help, all would be great—but that happening has a very low chance of occurring judging on Ares ego and character. So Allen didn’t think further on it nor he counts on it happening.
As for the Dungeon, Allen and Mia indeed found a large door at the very back of Athena’s Temple. It was roughly twenty ters tall door, but it was closed tight, covered with double fist-sized chains as if sealing it up. Allen tried destroying it or opening it forcefully but no matter what he does, he couldn’t even budge the door.
Even creating a key to the lock was useless, as the door dispersed magic the mont it touched it.
“Now, I’m getting curious about what’s behind this door,” Mia muttered as she inspected every angle of the sealed giant door. Allen was also the sa but he couldn’t think of any way to open it up. And also, for it to be this closely sealed, sothing must be within it that should not see the light of day… or so has a high chance of probability.
“I feel the sa but we don’t have any way to open it… let’s go back,” Allen sighs and turned around. Mia shrugged her shoulders and followed Allen. Although Allen was indeed completely curious about it, he has no idea as to how to open it at all, so might as well leave it for later. In any case, Allen can just go back and check on it anyti he wanted. After all, moping about it won’t help anything…it would just be a waste of ti..!
Returning to the Ruinos Castle, Allen and Mia disappeared. However, unbeknownst to them, just after they left, the chains dangling around the door suddenly shook and moved, and the large door slowly moved, revealing a small gap just in between the two fras.
However, due to the darkness, nothing can be seen clearly on it, before it returns back to normal.
