[Genesis City – A Day After Merlin Defeated the Lord of the Forest]Even before Merlin decided to fight the previous elder of the forest, he already set up the necessary safeguards. Ensuring that Genesis City won’t be able to get much of a trace of what happened. Though they did see the hurricane created by the ent on his entrance, that is all that they’re able to sense. Everything else has escaped them because of one thing – Teach’s domain. With this being used, the outside world is completely shut off. Everything that transpires within this space remains there and though there is a cube of dark mana that it creates. It is too far from the city to be recognizable for anything else other than an anomaly. One that didn’t cause any harm or danger to the city and, as such, is irrelevant.But this doesn’t mean that Junrio didn’t take any action. Far from it, the new lord of the city has begun placing soldiers near the walls of the city. Fortifying the defenses as he also checked on the c
Merlin floated in the sky using Dirth’s [Float] skill. High above the city of Genesis where the humans look nothing more than ants. Moving their way without a care in the world. Not knowing that they will get stepped on by a higher power soon.Floating on top of the demon’s hand is his current prized weapon. The one and only [Genesis]. A spellbook which, ironically, has the same name as the city he’s about to destroy. There is a great amount of power flowing through him from the same weapon. Enough to leave a feeling of omnipotence. Though Merlin will not play at being a god. He’s still a mortal. A demon. But one who can create chaos in a city of peace with the snap of a finger.“Ah…this reminds me of the old days.” Merlin said as he continued to look down.He doesn’t have a float skill yet because it doesn’t have a good use for him at the moment. There are other skills that need to be prioritized in strengthening and, a utility spell such as this isn’t one of them. That’s why he has
Light.Everything got absorbed in light for a single second. It’s like a flashbang with a very long radius hit the entire field. That is what it felt like. But more than this is the amount of power that is mixed in this same attack. Power that is an overflow of golden mana that emanates from the spellbook.With the flashbang comes the blinding of Junrio and Szas for a couple more seconds. There is a ringing in their ears as well which prevented them from hearing much. But neither of them are panicking because, they know for a fact that their target would either be heavily damaged by the attack or would be killed by it. That is how sure they are that it’d work.“That’s what you get for belittling humankind! Don’t you dare look down on us!” Junrio said triumphantly as his eyes began to adjust to the natural lighting of the surroundings. Szas is the same.“My lord, is it really necessary for us to have taken out this heirloom?” The assassin asked.“They left us without an option.” The lo
Merlin can see everything.His [Demonic Eyes] are enhanced by various passive skills. There is [Double Up] that increases its rank by two and, there is the additional boost brought about by [Demon’s Outrage]. All these things combined made Merlin’s vision cover an almost three-hundred-and-sixty radius. That is how far he can see.Adding to this is the seeming slowing down of everything around him. It’s almost as if he’s watching things occur in slow motion. That is what it feels like and, that being said, it is easier for him to dodge the attacks being rained down upon him by his opponent.Junrio’s attack is in no way weak. In fact, among all of the enemies Merlin has fought thus far, this city’s lord is probably the strongest. But being the city’s strongest doesn’t mean a thing against a demon who has more experience in the battlefield.Unlike Junrio who’s devoted his time behind a desk doing office work, Merlin has always been in the frontlines of battles. He has sharpened his skill

This is an urgent letter of greatest importance. A demon lord has emerged from hell and as a result, Genesis City has fallen into ruin. I have witnessed it with my own eyes and, sadly, I wasn’t brave enough to defend the city when the demon came. I ran away, though I did look back, and what I saw made me regret my decision. For I beheld darkness incarnate. The vilest form of life that can ever be manifested.Nightmare. Fear. Evil. Haunting. This creature has brought up all these emotions within me, rushing unto the entirety of my being and digging itself into the depths of my soul. The darkness created by its mana spread unto the city unlike any other. Killing thousands of citizens in the blink of an eye, without them even being able to fight back. The worst part of it is that, even Kelzio, a dear friend of mine, has been caught in this chaos. Unlike me, he’s not lucky enough to escape the initial attack. My dear friend vanished before my very eyes. Consumed by hell’s flames as I go
A house in the middle of nowhere. That is the place Lazaro arrived to. There isn’t any nearby community, no trees, no monsters, not even any insect. The house is solitary. Wrecked and seemingly abandoned. But still in one piece. Though this is nothing more than an illusion for the sake of appearances.“Ex nihil terrare fuster noir.”The chant made black magic circles appear below the house. Covering the entirety of the ground surface it stands on. Lazaro stepped on the edge of the magic circle which immediately let out a burst of dark mana. Swooping across the entirety of the wasteland as it changed shape.The sandy barren ground got covered in grass and vegetation. Trees of abundant fruits grew everywhere and, a soft wind blew across the skin of the illusionist. Lazaro himself cannot create something like this. That’s why he’s amazed to see such a high level of concealment spell being used. Though there is one player who’s able to do so back in the days of Requiem, the same one he ju
[Structure Name: Void Chamber][Upgrade Level: Maxed][Information: Built as a hibernation place for the demon lord Merlin, the chamber contains all of the dark mana released within this period. The containment of dark mana ensures the efficiency of evolution during hibernation period. Increasing all of the stats of the demon by a considerable amount in the process.][Information: A barrier covers the entirety of the chamber, powered by the mana of the demon lord as well as the excess. Should all of it expire and the room is still being attacked, Merlin will get transported to the second safest room within the dungeon to conduct the hibernation.][Information: Any living organism within a hundred-meter radius of the chamber will have their mana and life force siphoned during the usage of it. When the demon lord isn’t hibernating, it becomes just another normal room.This is a specialized room that Merlin prepared for himself within his own dungeon. The whole point of his dungeon’s exp
