Damien landed near a cave and saw so leftover charred logs, which was proof that sobody was cooking sothing here.
And seeing this cave reminded him of the scene he first saw when he ca into this world, 'I guess most Daemons like to live in a cave, huh?'
He didn't use his soul perception to not give away his position in case soone was hiding around here.
But he could see so kind of firelight coming from inside the case, making him squint his eyes as he decided to take a look.
"Careful, Master…" Kalypso said as she didn't like how this was looking.
"These creatures of darkness and death surely like damp and creepy places," Luna ntioned as she saw Damien walk through the muddy ground filled with small pools and puddles.
There were spider webs hanging from the ceiling and stalagmites protruding from the ground.
To his surprise, Damien saw the cave's inner space getting bigger and bigger as he went deeper inside.
The rocky walls were cracked with fire torches adorning them. Now he was sure sobody was using this cave, at least recently.
The mildewy sll of stagnant water wafted through his nostrils as he saw strange insects and bugs crawling through the walls and the ground. So of them even looked poisonous, and he made sure to not go anywhere near them just to be safe.
But after walking a few ters, Damien ca upon sothing that caught his eye. The walls no longer seed to be rocky but seed tallic, and upon close inspection, he saw so numbers and words painted on them but couldn't really tell since they seed quite faded away.
"What kind of place was this…" Damien felt as if this cave wasn't always a cave.
"My aunt's soul is more powerful than mine, and yet she didn't sense anybody in this place. So nobody should be here unless…" Damien
"Hey, look up. Saw that?" Luna suddenly pointed out as Damien looked up to see a small tal cube stuck to the ceiling of the cave. It looked dark gray in color, and a small red light was constantly blinking.
"What is that? A formation artifact?" Damien wanted to touch it but didn't know if it was dangerous or not. But it did look like sothing that ca from the past of the Old World.
"You can't feel anything?" Luna asked, making Damien wonder if she knew anything, "Nope. But do you?"
Kalypso perked her ears, curious what Luna knew.
"It's quite interesting. This little box is actually radiating ethereal energy at a very low density but at a certain frequency which is why you didn't even notice it," Luna explained.
"Eh? What does it really do? Is it safe to touch it?" Damien curiously asked.
"You can grab it since that artifact seems to suppress any kind of ethereal aura. Strange…Why would these Daemons use such an artifact?" Luna mumbled to herself as she found it puzzling.
Damien grabbed it and simply sent his ethereal energy through it to figure out the formation circuit powering this artifact so that he could learn how to turn this thing on and off.
But to his surprise, the formation circuits were too complicated, making him realize that the expert who designed and made this was definitely at a whole another level when it ca to formations.
"Ungh!"
"Eh? What was that?" Damien got startled when he suddenly heard a muffled cry echoing through the walls of this cave.
"Hey, put that thing in your soul space," Luna instructed as Damien followed it as he could guess what she had in mind.
And the mont he put the mysterious artifact in his soul space, he heard the voices of two n echo through the caves,
"This ghoul bitch! Look at her struggle, haha!"
"Aww, she does not seem so high and mighty now, does she? I have to say, tying her up like this is one of the most satisfying monts of my life, haha. Just one punch from , and she seems like she is about to cry. I really love this Pulverizer Glove."
"Give that. I will show you how to punch using such a powerful glove."
"BHAM!*
"UNGH!!"
"Hahaha! Look at her squeal!"
"Oh my…Her creepy eyes are staring daggers at us. We are so scared, hahaha…"
Damien had followed the voices of these n and was surprised when he saw two stocky n wearing strange suits standing before a ghoul woman, hanging in the air as her hands were tied to the ceiling.
Her mouth was also sealed using so kind of tape which made him realize why he had heard muffled cries before.
Her skin was just like any other ghoul he t but was smooth and flawless, while her pearl-shaped eyes were dark silver in color. However, her long silky hair was a pale white that reached till her buttocks. She was wearing black spandex-like pants and an armored vest that revealed a glimpse of her ample breasts and her tempting cleavage.
She had a curvy supple figure, but her face seed young and made Damien feel like she wouldn't be that older than him, unlike Akira, who was a mature woman.
But he hid behind a rock and suppressed his own aura to the maximum using his Mirage of Myriad Phantasms technique.
Now he realized why he or Akira wasn't able to sense the presence of these two n, but he was sure this restrained ghoul was Akira's disciple. But why were humans here? Weren't the Daemons who kidnapped her?
These two also seed to be enjoying torturing her by punching her using so glove-like artifact that seemingly amplified their strength.
He could see her body getting riddled with severe reddish bruises and possibly internal bleeding. He only felt contempt for these two fuckers for bullying soone who was tied up, and knowing that they were torturing his aunt's disciple made him want to take these two down right now.
