Salvos (A Monster Evolution LitRPG) Chapter 621: Collect

621. Collect

***

In the Netherworld, things changed. Things remained the sa. And things continued to move with the shifting white plains.

In the Demon King’s Domain, Regnorex continued to amass his army. Whatever devious plans he had to invade the Mortal Realm remained in motion, despite the minor interruptions he had faced.

And out in the wilderness, the Beast road mindlessly. It destroyed everything in its path. A terrible monster that even Primordial Demons feared. The pinnacle of power of the Nexeus. Perhaps only a single being— a singular entity in all of the three planes— could possibly hope to match its might. But he was gone.

The Devil was gone.

He had descended to the end of the world to save his lover. He had returned to face his failures and atone for his sins. And without him, there was a void left behind.

Perhaps to the rest of the Nexeus, his absence barely made a difference. So might sigh in relief, glad to see that he was gone. Others wouldn’t even notice that he had left— either too insignificant to be pestered by him, or too busy with their sches to even realize he was no longer there.

But to , it was quite obvious he was gone. After all, he was my dad. Sure, he didn’t raise like Human parents did. And he wasn’t even there a large portion of the ti. However, I knew he was watching over … even if it was for his own entertainnt.

Now, he was gone. I knew that Sal wouldn’t co to save anymore. I knew that he wouldn’t appear to give a lecture when I ssed up, and neither would he show up to praise when I accomplished sothing— like surviving an encounter with the Beast.

I was acutely aware of this fact. But I didn’t let it weigh down. Instead, I focused on other, more productive things. For example, because of everything that happened since I reunited with Haec once again, I didn’t really have the ti to sit down and collect my thoughts. Not just on what happened with the Devil, but everything else.

The fact that I survived the Beast. Knowing that even more Deathsquad Hunters were coming after us. And wondering how we were going to save Haec’s friends. I sat there and mulled it over. But as I did, my mind went over my current Status.

Thanks to defeating Venas and the other Deathsquad Hunters accompanying him, I had leveled up once in my Subspecies and three tis in my Class. I ended up maxing out the last of my Class Skills, although I still had an unused secondary Skill slot available.

Not that it mattered. My Class was Level 145, and I knew I was going to get a Class advancent soon. I was quite excited for it, considering that it was going to be an even more significant boost in strength than my Level 100 advancent.

I wondered what kind of Skills I could get. I wondered what kind of Skill upgrades I would receive. It was very exciting, especially now that I had seen the majesty and might of a Dragon firsthand.

Well… not firsthand, but secondhand. Through my dad’s visions, I had seen a Dragon. And their powers were enough to threaten even a Worldwalker.

My Class advancent would probably be related to Dragons once again. I was currently a [Draconic Apprentice], so maybe I’d be a [Draconic Master]? If that was even a thing…

Anyway, I grew giddy just thinking about the plethora of options that could be presented to . I could just sit there and think about it forever. And I had plenty of ti. A lot of ti to spare. After all—

I looked up as I stared at the sea of white flas expanding around . It was a lake of fire created by the Beast itself. It spread out as far as I could see, going over the distant horizon and burning blindingly brightly.

If I was out there, flying around in the Netherworld, I’d be reduced to ash in an instant. Fortunately for , I was hidden away in my pocket space, safe from the white flas. With [The World Of My Mind], I navigated through this devastated landscape. A moving sanctuary. One that ca with only a single problem—

And that was how we were moving really, really, really slowly.

I sighed as I watched the burning landscape slowly pass below .

“This is taking a while…”

But at least I had a lot of ti to collect my thoughts.
