As Henrien had mentioned, Azazel headed towards the western region. It turned out to be quite a journey. He had visited several towns and even undertaken quests to gather information.
However, the information he received only related to the aftermath of the previous incidents, and it was said that many regions were not fortunate. Those areas that had been attacked had turned into ghost towns, with the surviving residents preferring to flee rather than face such a calamity again.
As a participant, Azazel couldn't do much. He wasn't a superior figure who could rally everyone to face such problems with enthusiasm. He had done it before, but in the end, many had died. Strangely, he was the only one who had survived until now, and all those experiences had turned into bitter memories he didn't even want to recall.
There wasn't much to tell; Azazel's daily life was akin to an adventurer who traveled to various regions just to
It appeared longer than expected, taking over three days to reach the destination.And only now could he witness the mystical aura of the forest before his eyes. The distance was still quite far; perhaps it would take a day if he walked leisurely. Plus, the day had already transitioned into twilight."It seems I'll have to spend the night here..."A cool breeze rustled the trees, welcoming him with warmth.Without hesitation, Azazel would choose to stay there for the night.In the silence of the night, Azazel couldn't let his guard down. Many mysterious energies were watching him; this had happened often. Predators lurked in the darkness of the night, waiting for a moment of weakness to strike.This was normal for him; he had experienced sensations like this many times. But that night, a strange sensation suddenly emerged, not originating from the vicinity.
"I didn't expect that you had come this far; now I must take this more seriously!"As per that statement, Azazel tightened his muscles to unleash a tremendous force that pushed the undead's body away.Not accepting Azazel's actions, the undead tried to launch another attack. It slid forward at high speed, raising its sword to deliver death upon Azazel.Swings...Clashes...Power clashed against power.Azazel had predicted this figure would launch such an attack, so he just needed to follow the intentions of the figure.They had passed each other in a perilous tumult."Your turn..."Finally, Azazel's sword strike had cleanly cut through the undead's body, splitting it in two, and the energy that affected its bones was no longer present.For now, he might have won, but the main problem was still in front of him.The priest's undead figure was still there, observing the battle silently."Do spirits like you already know how to think?"Although it seemed like a silly question, he wanted t
Hard to believe, after a night-long battle. He was finally welcomed by the bright morning light, a dazzling light that penetrated awe into his body."Sometimes, fighting like this is indeed enjoyable..."Without wasting more time, he continued his journey towards the location of the flower.The path was quite steep, previously a valley full of trees, but this time he had to climb a cliff that revealed the beauty of the surrounding nature.Not the slightest bit tired for a creature like him, for some reason, he longed for it. The usual sensation of exhaustion had disappeared from his body.Life felt empty, there was no passionate turmoil.One thing is still unanswered, why that figure called someone like him to come to a world like this.He wanted to stop enjoying this crazy life and rest peacefully, whether it be heaven or hell.Putting that aside, now he had accepted the quest.Arriving at the top of the hill, Azazel was presented with a small flower garden. Strange for a barren plac
This is very strange; this grim-faced man knows what Louse wants.Her gaze continues to stare into Azazel's eyes, but the more her body is observed, the more it trembles violently. There is a magical aura that cannot be explained by someone like her"W-Why do you want to know this?" Louse musters the courage, unwilling to be intimidated by Azazel's energy. Here, she feels the need to fight and show that she is not a naive girl easily provoked.Azazel's reaction takes a long breath, with a gaze so serious."Do you know that what you're saying is quite dangerous?"A straight aura of death approached Louse, ensuring that she would die. She didn't have the ability to confront someone, especially someone like Azazel, whom she had just met."I know that!" Yes, she feels that there's no point in hiding this, and for some reason, her heart is not reluctant to reveal this problem. "I don't want to witness innocent creatures going through such things again; I want them to be creatures that live
Azazel began to monitor and follow Louse, skilled enough to do this alone.Interestingly, the one he was following didn't seem to notice his presence. He did not hide the aura of his existence; for a skilled fighter, a thing like this would have been noticed from the beginning.It indicated that Louse was just a normal girl like many others.After a while, he finally saw the building that Louse entered. It could be described as a simple house, very comfortable for living alone.For a moment, he observed this; perhaps here, he would find some other clues."Why does this girl appear in my dreams? Is she going to help conclude something?"Several people approached the house; their bodies seemed not too well.They entered the house and, within a few minutes, came back out."Thank you, I will take this medicine as per your instructions..."Briefly, this conversation provided insight into who Louse was—a figure known as a doctor or healer in this area.Azazel couldn't directly approach the
Louse quickly released her hand from Azazel's skin, her face revealing the tension that still lingered."This person has such a massive energy flow, and it feels so dark that it wants to swallow me up!""Are you okay?" Azazel asked innocently, although he knew what was happening to Louse. The sensor energy was resisting Louse's abilities, not with the intention to harm, but still something to be cautious about."Yes, I'm fine!" Louse took a deep breath, her body trying to remain resilient as if this didn't have a detrimental impact."Uhm..." She started trying to restart the conversation. "It seems I've gained some knowledge about the energy inside your body; perhaps this energy is the reason you have difficulty sleeping!""Is that so?""Your energy pressure exceeds the normal limits emitted by others. If it continues like this, it may not be good for you!"
"Could it be that he has also dreamed about me?"It could be understood that issues like this are often considered just dreams, unreal sensations thought to be momentary hallucinations. Louse's expression earlier hinted that experiences like this weren't exclusive to Azazel but also happened to her.There were still many things Azazel wanted to know from Louse, but he wasn't the type to force others into such discussions."Living as a normal person, huh?" Somehow, it sounded absurd. In his previous life, there were no signs of normalcy from him. He hadn't felt hunger or thirst for a long time. Sometimes, he desired to feel something, but that wasn't a reason to be hungry like a normal creature.Whatever the content of tonight's conversation, he was far from the category of a normal person."For now, maybe this is the best for me..."He boldly sw
"Why is this man so enthusiastic about what I'm doing? Did I invite him to do this?"Azazel couldn't read Louse's mind, but he knew the girl in front of him was thinking deeply. The way she moved her eyes harbored a doubt that was difficult to explain."With the courage to do something like this, it seems like you're confident about the consequences!""It's none of your business!" Louse replied sharply, turning her face away.It was difficult for Azazel to overcome this woman's attitude; no wonder he dreamt of her. Her face was still vivid in his memory, everything was revealed accurately."If you're so sure about this, why don't you just do it now?"Louse raised her eyebrows and shoulders, her expression becoming sharper towards the man."I can't do it because of you! You came here and disrupted my concentration. Besides, why do you care
