At first, Aengus was apprehensive about using laws in here, rembering Dimitri's hesitancy in using them.
But as he gradually used the Space law, he didn't feel any restrictions or punishnts, which struck him as odd.
On the other hand, Aria was fascinated by his power. The space before them seed to folded together by an invisible force, making the distance decrease by two tis. It was a miraculous sight.
"How did you do that, Ethan?" Aria asked, her gaze never leaving the path ahead.
"It's the power of laws from my World. But, It's nothing great compared to them," Aengus shrugged.
With his ager 0.01% comprehension, Aengus could only do this much. There were levels of seekers, but he was only at the basic level.
"Ah, that's really incredible!" she said with fascination.
But one thing caused her to doubt.
"Didn't you say you were a defect or incapable of using their power? So how can you suddenly be able to wield it?"
Aengus smiled, "The sa reason I was able to grow up to this point."
Aria looked enlightened but quickly beca confused again.
"So that's the case... but how? If no one have these powers in our world, how did you get your hands on them?" Aria asked as their journey continued through the clouds.
The fog's humidity gave them a strange sense of comfort.
"Do you rember the fight with the demonic creature and that human?" Aengus hinted.
Aria, piecing the puzzles together, suddenly looked frightened.
"So, you're saying that you are that demon, Leviathan? And that old man was from your world and sohow ended up here?" Aria asked, her voice shaking slightly.
"Smart!" Aengus complinted, squeezing her hand gently to ease her unease.
"Oh heavens!" Aria glanced back at him, trying to reconcile the terrifying image of the demon Leviathan with Aengus' friendly, smiling face. She forced herself to remain calm, knowing how unusual his existence truly was.
"Ethan, what's the real story with that man—or should I say, Seeker?"
Aengus answered truthfully, "He was... Dimitri."
He explained how Dimitri had ended up in this world, how he had killed the dwarves and isolated Dwarvania, why Aengus had killed him, and how he had beco Dimitri's heir through a binding deal.
Aria listened intently, her curiosity about the outer worlds deepening as she absorbed the incredible story.
"Ethan, can I co along with you? I want to et your mother and father too," Aria pleaded, trying to hide her curiosity.
Aengus didn't expose her obvious intention, but he looked worried. He still didn't know how to bring them to the Primal Realm, or how he had co here in the first place—it was sothing he couldn't rember yet.
However, he reassured her with determination, "Yes, of course. You can co too. But don't expect my family to be good. Only my mother is excellent; the rest are arrogant, conceited bastards," he said, recalling the few mories he had of them.
Aria's smile faded, replaced with concern for him. "I'm sure they'll see your worth soday, Ethan," she said, trying to comfort him.
Suppressing his anger, Aengus looked ahead. With his special eyes, he could see the forest coming into view below. Dark and unforgiving, it lay a few hundred kiloters away, signaling that they were approaching their destination.
"Hey Ethan, what are those down below?" Aria asked, her gaze fixed on the large swarm moving through the Darkwood Forest.
Aengus squinted, sensing the unmistakable presence of Nether energy drawing near. "They're demons," he said calmly, his eyes narrowing as he spotted tens of thousands of them, accompanied by ominous flying ships.
"Be careful, Aria. That must be a demon army," Aengus announced.
"Demon army?" Aria repeated, her attention focused on the sight below.
"There are so many... There must be a high-ranking demon leading them. But why are they going that way? Their route isn't toward Araknis Kingdom."
"Which kingdom lies in that direction?" Aengus asked, piecing together the demons' intentions.
"That way? Probably Skyfall Kingdom. It ans they're planning an attack there. What should we do? They must be trying to exploit the internal strife between the 27 kingdoms," Aria speculated, her concern growing.
"Relax, Aria. Let land the wyvern slowly, and we'll assess their strength. If necessary, we'll hunt them. They're just the resources I need to grow my power," Aengus said with a predatory grin, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Oh, but be careful," Aria warned, "there could be a demon general leading them at worst." As the wyvern began its descent, her tone remained cautious, though her trust in Aengus' strength was unwavering.
After landing silently, Aengus and Aria dismounted and signaled the wyvern to leave. It hesitated briefly before taking off with a powerful flap of its wings.
Aengus observed the demon army from a distance, evaluating their strength and weaknesses.
"Aria, there's a Demon General and twelve Archdemons we need to be cautious of. Be prepared," Aengus said calmly.
"Huh? How can you tell from here?" Aria asked, puzzled.
"Let's just say I have another special eye skill that lets see others' strengths and weaknesses," Aengus replied with a smile, enjoying the look of astonishnt on her face as she blinked in confusion.
"Oh," Aria muttered, unsure of what to say. Her fiancé seed to have gained many incredible skills during his journey.
She turned her attention back to the enemies, preparing herself for the battle ahead.
As she looked at Aengus' confident posture, she could feel his aura growing stronger by the mont. It shocked her, making her realize just how far she was from reaching his level of power.
But she was not one to give up easily. She resolved to grow stronger and stand beside him as an equal.
"Aria, I'm going to try and finish this with a single strike. Whoever remains, you'll have to take care of quickly, so they can't send any distress signals," Aengus instructed.
"Oh, Okay, one shot it is!" Aria nodded, though she wondered how he planned to pull it off.
But what she witnessed next left her completely speechless.
