"Kekekeke… KAHAHAHAAHAHA! YOU!? KILL US?! WHAT A JOKE!" Cy shouted.
A blast of wind sent the man flying back, revealing Findir, who appeared behind him just a split second.
He caught the man's massive back with a single hand and rose his free hand, creating hundreds of tiny winds that sliced and diced his armor.
It imdiately began to crumble under the intensive and sharp pressure of Findir's raging winds, eventually cracking and shattering along the floor… and this all happened in less than a second.
"Findir! Leave so for us!" Bella shouted as she conjured two massive fireballs in her hands and took out so of the small fry, leaving just the archer and the leader who stood strong.
Well, the small fry was near death per my instructions, as I still had a tiny promise to fulfill with the man sitting on his throne of purple flas.
A small smile cracked along my face as I ran beside Cy, and we synchronized our movents, allowing us to completely dodge every single one of the archer's arrows.
The sound of their wooden bodies whistling past us was intoxicating, with adrenaline pumping through our veins.
"Leave him alive," I muttered with a large smile.
"I could say the sa for you. You look like you're about to kill him right now," Cy responded before raising his spear coated in a blood-red aura and chopping through the fan of arrows sprayed towards him.
The archer was being pushed back into a corner, and now he had almost nowhere to go as I circled around him.
My spear jamd through both of his arms, slicing them off but leaving his torso intact.
Cy then proceeded to gather a wad of mana in his hands that created tiny sparking explosions, cauterizing his wounds and leaving him perfectly set for us to torture.
"Bla yourselves for being so incompetent," Cy muttered with an almost demonic smile that sent shivers down my spine.
His eyes swirled with malice, and just from taking a glance at him, I could tell he was struggling to contain all of it within him.
"Alright, and it seems the leader has been taken care of," I chuckled upon landing my eyes on the massive man kneeling on the ground, tears flowing from his eyes and large wounds creating rivers of blood that flowed into his eyes.
Aisa, Findir, Bella, and Luna had taken care of him already, and now the final cherry on top for the rest of the group was Luna placing a small illusion spell on the archer.
He imdiately began to toss and turn in agony but was unable to grip his head for obvious reasons.
"Now, tell us what our mission is, asshole," Bella clicked her tongue before ripping the piece of paper from the leader's pocket and reading over it.
Her eyes slipped upwards into a small amused smile that seed like she had just read a joke of so sort.
"Seriously? Eradicate an entire race?" She spat out and tossed the paper to Luna, who then tossed it to .
I read it, and yep, the details were completely spot on with what Bella had explained, making all of us practically groan with annoyance.
"This is gonna take forever," Aisa complained.
"Well, we do have a hundred years to serve. Since we don't have an end, ti must flow faster, but… it does say here that it can be completed within one to two years…." I read out loud, and Aisa just groaned again.
"That's still an entire year or two of our lives wasted. I better not age down here because I haven't seen anything to take care of my dry skin,"
Everybody just ignored her before looking down at our weak prey.
"Now… shall we get started?" Luna chuckled to herself before enveloping all of the nearly dead n in a pink glow.
Thankfully, we didn't have to do much with her here… or so I thought as a few more familiar monsters ca towards us.

(Demon Lord POV)
"It should be around that ti," I muttered to myself before closing my eyes and shifting into the room beside .
As soon as my eyelids popped open, I found myself standing in front of a pile of broken and fearful n that could only shuffle back and pee themselves upon seeing .
"Th-They're monsters! They're monsters! How are we supposed to work with them!" The one who I presud to be the leader shouted at .
His crotch had already beco wet from fear, and his body that shook millions of tis a second could barely get him to stand up.
"Ugh… Your souls really do sll delicious," I muttered to myself, and just as I wiped the saliva from the side of my mouth, a mass of shadows erupted from beneath my feet, swallowing all six of the n whole.
Their flesh imdiately began to disintegrate, leaving a bad initial taste in my mouth as n weren't the juiciest nor tastiest of things, but once I got to the souls, my knees nearly buckled from the taste.
They were truly horrible sinners, and just judging from that beautiful aftertone of flavor, they had done so unsavory things towards the beginning of their lives.
"Terrorist bandits through and through," I muttered before taking the cloth from the butler beside and wiping my mouth.
Once I had savored all of the flavors of these beautiful souls, I ca up with a limp excuse for Hades and then sent it off with the help of my butler.
"Sir, before I leave, may I know why you chose such easy missions? The previous years were exponentially harder,"
"John, don't worry. The previous years just took much longer to complete, but these indefinite missions are so much harder. I wouldn't be surprised if all groups had died at least five tis before completing their objective… and, oh, speak of the devil,"
I closed my eyes once again and reappeared in the center of the summoning circle, landing on top of a pile of exhausted n and won.
"Take a day. You'll be off again tomorrow," I muttered, and everybody just groaned under my weight and pressure.

"Hey, are all of your equipnt still charted inside your status? I can still see both of my rings and spear, but neither of them are on . I still have the tattoo, but I can't summon the ring," I muttered.
"Yeah, all of my equipnt is still there… maybe, we can summon it sohow? Like, not through normal ans but maybe a scroll?" Findir suggested.
"I an, maybe, but I highly doubt it… ugh, I just want my spear back. That thing had been built perfectly for , and now I have to see it go,"
The air was heavy around the group as our mountainous challenge, and small inconveniences began to catch up to us.
"Hey, does anybody think I can find my dead relatives here?" Cy suddenly asked the question pretty much everybody had been thinking about.
Everybody here lost soone they loved… well, maybe except for Luna and Bella, but the remaining ones were still thinking the sa thing.
"Did they do sothing bad in their lives? Cause if not, then they're probably up above," Aisa sighed.
"Do you all believe in reincarnation? It could be possible that they've reincarnated into different animals, monsters, or people, possibly…." Luna suggested to the already low morale group.
"That isn't reassuring… I kind of wanted to see them," Cy muttered before flopping onto his back and closing his hands.
"What about your mom and dad?" Bella asked , causing everybody to suddenly tense and perk up their ears.
"My dad… well, he's definitely not down here. And my mother… there is no way she could be down here either,"
"So she's in heaven?"
"Nah, probably sowhere else… Well, maybe… anyway, we all should get so sleep. Everybody must be exhausted from today, and as we have no ti limit, sleep as much as your heart desires,"
Being down here in this thick and dirty atmosphere was gross and unpleasing, but this feeling of being free from most responsibilities was heavenly.
"Sweet dreams," Luna muttered before we all curled up on the dirty ground and closed our eyes.
