Magic Beginning Arc: Chapter 11. Into the Underworld Part 1.

Valoran now is standing directly in front of the gate that leads to the underworld.

"This must be it. The gate to the underworld." - Valoran said.

To open the gate a being has to output infinite amounts of magical power by launching a powerful magical beam directly at the gate.

Valoran then proceeds.

In Valoran's case, however, all he did was just walk into the gate and release an infinitesimal of his magic true power which was more than enough to easily open the gate.

"This was easier than expected" - Valoran said to himself.

Then he steps into the gate and arrives in the underworld's dimensional plane.

.... "That's unexpected" - Valoran said.

What Valoran saw immediately after walking through the gate was people.

More exactly, people who are frozen in time.

"I see. The underworld is a space which is above the: idea of dimensionality. Or to put it differently, a space unbound by dimensionality, as well as space time in other words time seems frozen here, which makes the underworld appear as being in a time stop.

It also drains your magic power at a rapid rate.

I see that these people were able to fight off the time stop for a few seconds. Until their magical power was completely drained and they froze in time for all eternity.

Some made it further than others which is a good indication of who was the strongest person to visit the underworld.

Even my magic is being drained at the moment. I estimate that in a single second I lose infinite amounts of magic power-"-Valoran said and got interrupted.

Then a female voice starts to speak.

"Not near-infinite amounts of magic power. Infinite amounts of magic power to be precise. "-The voice said.

After the mysterious female voice said that a black mist appeared.

Inside the Black mist, a figure emerged.

It was a beautiful woman.

She had dark hair and a tall stature.

"I am surprised. You are not frozen in time and your magic has not been drained" - The woman said.

"Time being stopped will not stop me. As for my magic. My magic is beyond infinity itself." - Valoran replied.

The women got furious. She launches an attack on Valoran.

"YOU. DID THE GODS SEND YOU HERE? - The woman screamed at Valoran and launched an attack.

She shoots a powerful magic blast at Valoran.

Valoran raises his hand and also launches a powerful magic blast and both blasts meet each other in the middle.

"I am not here on God's behalf" - Valoran replied.

"LIAR. I KILL YOU!" - The woman screamed at Valoran.

As both magic blasts meet each other in the middle it creates a huge explosion and a bright light with a lot of dust being launched from the ground covering a lot of Valoran and the woman.

When the dust cleared she was gone... And then....

...A huge amount of blood starts to drop from Valoran's mouth and body.

A long spear is being pierced through Valoran's body.

Valoran then drops his head.

"Die. I know you came here to kill me." - The woman said.

"No. I despise the Gods and Angels" - Valoran replied.

"What?. How are you alive? " - The woman asked in shock.

"I am immortal. A spear piercing me won't kill me." - Valoran replied.

The woman pulls out the spear from Valoran's chest.

"You said that you are here on God's behalf.....Then why are you here?" - The woman replied.

"I am here to obtain the legendary metal ore." - Valoran replied.

"I see. I can lead you towards the ore. However I should tell you that this metal ore cannot be obtained." - The woman replied.

"Impossible. That word means nothing to me" - Valoran said.

"Follow me" - The woman replied.

The mysterious woman then leads Valoran to the metal ore.

He then sees the underworld and what it is like.

It is an infinite sized space full of giant rocks.

Looking down from the path that Valoran and the mysterious woman were walking on he sees something beautiful.

He sees an ocean of flames in multiple colours which lights the entire underworld.

"So what is your name? And why do you want the metal ore?" - The mysterious woman asked.

"My name is Valoran Silver. I came here to get the metal ore to forge a sword for my special assignment."-Valoran replied.

"I see." - The woman replied.

As they continue to walk, Valoran begins to speak.

"I have heard a legend about a fallen hero.

Aeons ago when time itself was still new and the Gods were still young. Titans and Gods were at war with each other, for power and control.

Many Gods became legendary heroes. Among those heroes was a young goddess. Artemsia. A war goddess who stood out from all the other gods. Her skill was unmatched and her beauty outshined all the other goddesses.

The other Goddesses became more and more jealous due to other Gods paying more attention to her and worshipping her more than them.

And so. One day the Goddesses told Artemsia to enter a space to fight off titans when in reality this was an unbound dimensional space as well as unbound by space-time. It was then cursed to never be opened from the inside. Only the goddesses who placed her here can lift the curse.

Over aeons, this space has evolved into the underworld itself. Over the years many tried to enter this space since it houses unimaginable magic power and metal magic ores only to be never seen again.

Many claimed that the queen of the underworld kills them and traps them all for all eternity.

The queen of the underworld and Artemsia are the same person.

Am I right? Artemsia. " Valoran questions.

Artemsia then turns around.

She is shedding a single tear.

"Correct. I am the evil underworld queen that everybody thinks I am." - Artemsia said while crying a single tear.

"What an awful fate. You have been imprisoned here for almost all of time" - Valoran said, sounding sympathetic.

"It is nice to have a conversation with another being" - Artemsia said.

"I believe you" - Valoran replied.

They arrive at the crimson metal orb. There was a crimson metal piece sticking out from the ground.

"This is it. I must warn you this crimson metal ore drains magic and, upon contact it does this significantly faster. It has been absorbing all this power since time began.

It is also heavy. Its weight is infinite. It is also indestructible. Finally magic and other abilities have no effect on it. You must use raw strength to pull out the metal ore, which is impossible. "- Artemsia explained.

" I see. If magic does not work I guess I'll extract the metal ore using my physical strength"-Valoran said.

He walks towards the crimson ore. There is a big piece sticking out from the ground.

He then grabs the crimson metal with one arm and immediately feels something.

"I see this metal drains my magic even faster than the underworld does." - Valoran realises.

He then starts pulling with his right arm. As he did, the ground started to shake like an earthquake.

Artemisa is shocked to see his strength…him being able to effortlessly pull out the crimson metal ore while being drained by the dimensional space and the crimson metal ore itself.

"What is he?" - Artemsia asked herself.

Valoran continues to pull and eventually pulls out a huge crimson metal ore.

"Now. I need to forge it" - Valoran said.

Amazed that he did not seem a little exhausted.

"How can he have so much magic and raw power left?" - Artemsia thought to herself in confusion.

"Now you must go down to the multicoloured flames. There your sword can be forged in the best set of conditions since the flames contain immeasurable amounts of magical power, that calling this infinite power would be a severe understatement. There the metal ore will absorb even more power and be even more powerful." - Artemsia explains.

"Alright" - Valoran replied.

They make their way down to the ocean of the coloured flames.

"Tell me Valoran. How is the outside world?" - Artemsia asked.

"How about I'll show you."-Valoran replied.

He places his hand on Artemsia's head and shows her the real world and all the knowledge of the world's history he learned from reading all the books he read.

"It's beautiful" - Artemesia said, amazed at how the world evolved.

"Wait... What? The Gods fought against mortals?" - Artemsia asked in shock.

"Yes. For centuries Gods and Angels terrorised the mortal realm. 4000 years ago the last Magic King sacrificed himself for freedom and the mortal races were killed. The Gods for some reason returned to the divine realm. But for how long will they remain there until they cause chaos again? " - Valoran questioned.

Shocked to hear that the Gods would attack the innocent, she remained silent.

They both arrive at the flames.

Valoran was ready to begin forging his magic sword.

" Let's begin.... "

No matter what happens I must ensure the safety of the citizens. Failing to defy this invitation would most certainly provoke this God to descend here causing destruction.” Valoran explains this to Demonlise who also fully understands that what Valoran is saying is the truth. “I understand my Lord.” Demonlise is the loyal right-hand man who supports the decision. “Demonlise look after our guests a God of sea is after the queen Limeneria.
