Kyle stared at the Demon’s serious expression for a few seconds before breathing in. “And what in the world made you think that’s a good idea?” he shouted, flailing his arms around in an attempt to convey how ridiculous Droigheann’s suggestion was. “Go and ask? Who are you going to ask that to?”
Droigheann chuckled at the panicked young man. “You worry too much for things you do not need to worry about, human.” He said with an amused expression. His eyes glimmered as he grinned. “Most demons do not care about what happens in the material plane. The Abyssal Plane is more than enough for them. I am sure that piece of power has its price.”
Kyle bit his lips. Control over time itself. That was what was at stake here. How could a power like that have a price? By definition, it must be priceless! Or that’s what he believed in. He hesitated still, what if something happened to Droigheann? What if a fight

“IT IS AMAZING, KYLE!” Cacophus exclaimed as soon as the young summoner stepped into his study. “LOOK, THE SUN IS UP,” He pointed at the drawn shut curtains with his bony fingers. “YOU DID IT, DIDN’T YOU? YOU WENT SOMEWHERE WITH THAT ANGEL, YOU FIXED THE STORM CLOUDS, YOU MADE THE GREATER BEING LEAVE.”Kyle flinched. “Uh, no hang on.” He gestured the Lich to calm down. He was way too excited. Why? Had the Greater Being’s arrival scared him so much? Considering how he rushed to hide in the damp, dark catacombs below the plateau, Kyle didn’t have much trouble believing that.“I didn’t make the Greater Being leave.” He explained. “It was looking for something and left when it turned out it wasn’t here.”The green lights in the Lich’s eye sockets lit up with curiosity. “WHAT WAS IT LOOKING FOR?”Kyle shrugged. “I’m not sure.&rdqu
The Lich's Master Chapter 249: A Visit From Vis
Kyle paced around the cathedral, taking in the view. While he had been taking it for granted until now, he forced himself to look, to pay attention to his surroundings. Wildflowers surrounded the small, stone path circling the cathedral. Fruit trees dotted the landscape around it, providing some much needed shade, and the delicious fruits he ate for breakfast every day.A wry smile formed on his lips. He paused, and crouched by the largest, most vibrant patch of wildflowers. He gently touched some of their petals, feeling the texture.The flowers from Necron were even more vibrant than these. They were sturdier, not so fragile. They bloomed so much more, in a matter of hours for some of them. Their scent alone was enough to help him relax, to calm him down and allow him to clear his mind.These flowers on the other hand… They were beautiful, but fragile. They bloomed for a couple of days, then wilted.Was that why the residents of Necron created st
The Lich's Master Chapter 250: Preparing For A Lord's Arrival
The room suddenly grew darker as Kyle’s shadow seemed to gain depth. Not a moment later, Droigheann, clad in his armour, appeared.His gaze fixed on Vis almost instantly. “What are you doing here, vampire?” He hissed. Vis smiled. “We were talking about stuff.” She said with a cheerful shrug. Droigheann quickly turned to look at Kyle. “Is that so?” He asked.Kyle chuckled and nodded. “No worries, Droigheann. How did it go?”The Demon of the Nightbloom took off his helmet, then smirked. “I think they’ll give it to us.” He said with a victorious smile.Kyle’s eyes shot wide open. “Seriously?!” He exclaimed. “That’s-““What’s the catch then?” Vis asked with a flat voice. “I’ve known demons, they wouldn’t just let you have it.” She added.Droigheann chuckled. “The catch is that they want to me
The Lich's Master Chapter 251: Demonic Arrival
Vis and Droigheann had completely transformed the Grand Hall of the Cathedral. The once holy – looking hall was now a summoning ground for the Demon Lord. Or Lords, depending on how many of them decided to come from the Abyssal Plane.There was a large pentagram drawn on the ground. The pews that once decorated the hall had been taken outside, put up against the wall in the hallway.The pentagram was drawn with blood, some taken from Kyle, some from Vis.“We both must remain in the room,” The vampire explained as she finished drawing the pentagram. “This will contain them within this circle,” She pointed at a larger circle. Most of the Grand Hall was within this circle, with only the entrances and the altar remaining out of it. “But only for as long as we stay within it as well.” A grim smile formed on her lips.“That’s… better than nothing, I guess.” Kyle muttered. “Thanks, Vis.&rdq
The Lich's Master Chapter 252: The Demon Lords
From the sea of blood, three figures rose.The one nearest to Kyle was a woman. Her white hair and eyes were quite a contrast to her crimson skin covered in black veins. The pair of demonic wings on her back stretched as she opened her eyes. Terrifyingly beautiful, Kyle thought as he noticed her sharp fangs, and claw like hands. A long tail swung from one side to the next as she raised her chin.The other two were identical to one another. Both of them had dark grey skin, and a pair of wings on their backs. They both wore armour made from the scales of something. Perhaps a dragon, the young man thought. Although they seemed much more dangerous with their hostile gazes, and the pair of horns on their heads, the woman terrified him so, so much more.“Welcome, Lady of the Pit.” Droigheann’s voice sounded. “And young lords as well.” He respectfully bowed his head.The Demon of the Nightbloom circled around them and took his place
The Lich's Master Chapter 253: First Half of the Hourglass
If looks could kill, the Lady of the Pit’s glare would have offed everyone in the room. Kyle gulped, staying calm and collected was growing increasingly more difficult.“Then your pest will remain, and you will have to deal with it yourself, Ruler of the Pit.” Azazel’s calm and collected voice was oddly soothing. It helped Kyle remain calm while startling the Lady of the Pit. “But if you could deal with it, you would have done so yourself ages ago. You are not one to allow a pest to exist because you simply didn’t feel like dealing with it.” The edges of Azazel’s lips curled up ever so slightly. “You may decide not to give me the half of the hourglass, but then the pest remains as well.”The Lady of the pit clenched her claw-like hands. “Yet despite claiming you will offer assistance, you refuse to enter a blood oath!” She hissed. “Is that not hypocrisy, Fallen Angel?”Azazel laughed out loud. “Binding myself to a Demon’s whim would be more so, don’t you think?”“If you already intend
The Lich's Master Chapter 254: Oppressive Air
Kyle rubbed his chest, where the blood oath hurt him. He wasn’t paying much attention to the bickering of Droigheann, Vis, and Azazel. They had been at it for nearly twenty minutes, and it didn’t seem like they were going to calm down anytime soon.He sat on the ground and leaned his back against the large marble altar. The stinging in his chest had ceased, but now he felt somewhat exhausted. Not because of whatever that Blood Oath was, but because the relief of having gotten the hourglass. They were halfway done already.“Listen to me, Demon!” Azazel hissed, his wings half open. “I already told you once, and I will tell you again. I do not intend to let the mortal die. So drop this already!”“I still can’t believe you’d have him enter a blood oath.” Vis’ voice sounded. The vampire was standing next to the pillar she’d been hiding behind. “And such a dangerous one too, what if this pest turns out to be something more dangerous than he can deal with?”Kyle pressed his palm against his
The Lich's Master Chapter 255: A Monumental Task
“I feel dizzy just listening to that.” Kyle grumbled as the group of four walked down the hall. “Are you sure it’s doable?”Azazel shrugged. “It should be. You did somehow manage to break me out of there. Now there will be two of us.” He smirked.“Don’t even remind me of that nightmare.” Kyle muttered, massaging his temples. He’d rather forget all that instead. But of course, Azazel didn’t seem to be willing to let him.“Either way, since you’ve somehow managed to go that far, I am sure we’ll be able to reach the precipice.” He paused. “Probably.” He added after a split second of silence.“Yeah, thanks.” Kyle grumbled. “That was very reassuring. How the hell are we going to get to the Celestial Plane anyways?”“How did you get to it the last time?” Vis asked, her eyes glimmering with curiosity.&ldqu
