A few days later, deep in the ’quietest’ zone in all of Hell today...
There was a gray palace amidst the black mountains of the region, where hot winds raised the surrounding temperature. anwhile, a contrasting orange glow was coming from inside the building, attracting attention amidst the darkness of one of the dullest zones in the entire dinsion.
Few undead and guardians could be seen around the palace, but the few that were there were as powerful as any Vicente had ever seen on his journey. If he were standing in front of such a palace right now, he would hesitate and rethink several tis about going any closer.
He wasn’t there at the mont, but so people inside the palace were talking about him right now.
In what seed to be the underground area, the orange glow was even more intense there, mixed with a fair amount of steam. Amidst the sound of moving water, feminine laughter was spreading through the area, where only a small group of six beings were there now.
Of these six, none of them had the rocky, dark appearance typical of hellish beings. They had human silhouettes, light skin, with physical characteristics common to humans. Two eyes, mouth, ears, nose, everything about them was ’normal’, except for their auras, which were even stronger than those of the guardians around the palace.
Of the six people in this hot spring, five were beautiful won, each with their own physical qualities that set them apart from the rest, even naked in this isolated area of their family.
The sixth was a silver-haired man, sitting next to his companions, also naked, with water up to the middle of his navel. He had a neutral expression on his face, unaffected by the last good-natured comnt from one of his companions.
Then, a beauty with long light green hair, full breasts and erald eyes, froze her smile and asked, "What do you intend to do with these groups? Qhava is chasing that boy you said would co to us one day. She seems unconcerned about acting in our area of influence."
The other four won beca more serious, leaving the good humor of a few monts ago aside. The strongest among them, with long brown hair, said, "One of them has a familiar aura. Before you decide, we need to see who it is."
Lothur looked at his won, specifically at Viktoria, who spoke last. Nodding his head, he comnted on the person she had already noticed. "I also noticed a familiar aura. It’s not completely identical to any of my acquaintances, but there’s sothing familiar about it. Perhaps it’s an old acquaintance or soone related to them. We’ll see who it is later.
Regarding Qhava, this woman has beco too ambitious since she boosted her powers. Maybe it’s ti we put an end to her story."
Annaliese, Viktoria’s twin sister, shook her head in disagreent. "I don’t know if it’s a good idea. The war brought a lot of changes to Hell, strengthening Qhava a lot. If she dies now, we’ll push the dinsion into an even longer period of conflict and uncertainty."
"And we mustn’t forget the situation with the Upper Realm. In the last 4,000 years, we’ve never been at such a sensitive mont. An all-out war between the dinsions could break out at any mont." Elke, the only redhead in the group, comnted seriously.
Rebecca, the woman with the short, dark green hair, added, "Since Minos Stuart’s disappearance, I’ve seen worrying signs. The realm is growing stronger and the Devils are out of control. We could lose control and enter a negative spiral at any mont."
Lothur agreed with his wives and even he, a mighty 9-Star Transcendent, considered the strongest in Hell, couldn’t help but worry. Ordinary disputes no longer worried him. He had already defeated every possible enemy. His vitality didn’t worry him. He could live forever. As for his company, he had his won by his side. However, all this depended on the reality of things. And an uncontrolled dispute between absolute dinsions would lead to only one end!
The complete annihilation of all the layers of reality!
That frightened him and his whole family!
As long as reality existed, even if a loved one of theirs on a lower plane died, they could direct their souls and make them reincarnate, grow up and then rember their old lives.
In short, they could do whatever they wanted, as long as the reality of things remained the sa.
But the winds currently blowing seed to want to take them in the opposite direction, trying to push them into unpredictable chaos.
Lothur knew that perhaps their next actions would put them in great danger. "Sigh, I feel we’re approaching a mont of no return. Killing Qhava or not won’t change much. The one who will decide our fate is not her. I can feel it."
He didn’t know who this was, but he was almost certain that the enemy would co from the Upper Realm—Argardus—and not from Hell.
He looked through his palace, seeing the black sky of this area of Hell. Lothur muttered as if he were the losing side in a great ga. "I’ve been fighting for the last 5,000 years. I’ve learned about different planes of existence, beco one of the strongest and achieved immortality. But from where I’ve arrived, I can still see a higher peak than the one I’m standing on. Unfortunately, I still can’t control our destinies with 100% efficiency."
As the five won looked at him in contemplation, seeming to doubt or question whether this was even possible, he took a deep breath and continued.
"Whatever we decide now, I’m afraid it will change little where we end up. But let’s see where this group gets to. There’s an interesting fellow among them." Lothur shifted his gaze, smiling slightly as he turned his attention to his won.
"This chosen one from Hell?" Natali asked, shaking her light green hair. "I heard several rumors about his appearance a few years ago. But is he everything they say? Feeling his aura now, I don’t feel he’s all that impressive."
Lothur looked at his younger companion, whom he had known since his youth but had only joined the family a thousand years ago, and answered her. "Don’t underestimate him. He’s weak compared to us, but he has a ridiculous affinity with the dinsion. I still don’t know enough about him to understand him, but I saw him once and felt like he was the embodint of the darkness. I’ve been waiting for him ever since."
"He could be your challenger." Viktoria suggested as she contemplated the matter.
"Perhaps..." Lothur laughed. "It’s been a long ti since I’ve fought seriously. Perhaps the ti has co for to face soone capable of defeating ."
As he spoke, two humans, a dragon and a lion, passed through the final border on their way, entering Devil Ritter’s domain. anwhile, Qhava was still chasing them, now a re 10 minutes away from her targets!
