Chapter 538 - 538: Harmony

The mountains were the same as the ones in their world, but something else attracted his gaze there. 

Even though the mountain was far, his eyesights were way too good. He was able to see someone on top of one of the mountains. 

From your distance, it looked like a silhouette of a human, at least based on shape. Despite good eyesight, he didn't get a perfectly clear view from here, but if it was actually a human, that was going to be big. 

If another human could come here, that meant he must know of a way to get out as well. But it was also possible that the human wasn't from their world? As he was told by the Dungeon Dweller, there were more worlds than one. 

If the person was from a different world, he might not be able to take them back. Still, it was better than nothing. A human could tell them more about this world and how he gets in and leaves. Maybe they could reverse engineer the method to leave?

"So beautiful," Jenilia also commented. "Moreover, this world is so peaceful. All these beasts live in harmony, unlike people in our world."

"You can't judge a world based on one area. The conflicts in our world are mostly between nations." Salazar replied. "Who knows, there might be another gang of beasts that hate these ones? We can't form an opinion without having a bigger picture."

"So, where are we going?" he asked Lucifer. 

Lucifer raised his finger towards the mountain. 

"The Snow Mountain?"

"Yeah. I see someone there," Lucifer answered. "Anyway, prepare for facing the beasts. We might be attacked by the beasts when we try to fly past them."

"Wait a minute. You saw someone there? That far? Who did you see?"

"I'm not sure. I think it is a human. I can't see that clear," Lucifer answered, sighing. "We'll have to go there to get an answer. Just stay prepared."

"I understand," Salazar said, nodding. "We can't always avoid these beasts since they're everywhere."

Salazar wasn't the least bit scared, even though he knew he would have a hard time if he were actually attacked. He couldn't slow down time since that was going to affect Lucifer as well. If only he could have a way to avoid taking him inside his domain.

Lucifer started flying towards the mountains with Jenilia. As they reached above the forest, they noticed that even more beasts were inside the forest, which were smaller in size. Unlike the beasts outside the forest, the ones inside were smaller, which was odd. 

Even the ant outside was bigger. On the contrary, even the yeti-like beast inside the forest was small, only 5 feet tall.

He could see the Yeti fighting a tiger for some reason. For a moment, he paused and observed the battle between the Yeti and the Tiger. For some strange reason, the Yeti was faster, but he looked weaker. The tiger was slower, but he had more defense. He was able to wound the Yeti. 

"There goes your harmony of this place," Lucifer jokingly told Jenilia, who had just praised the peace between the beasts of different kinds. 

He again resumed his flight. 

As he flew past the forest, he finally reached near the lake where all the bigger beasts were. The Dragons had just finished speaking when they looked up at Lucifer and the others. 

The Dragons didn't look for long. Instead, they took off their gaze and got back to drinking. 

"It looks like we were wrong. They aren't interested in attacking us. Maybe the beasts here aren't hostile to humans?" Salazar suggested, justifying this strange behavior. 

"Probably," Lucifer muttered. "That might be why Summoners can summon them and take their help. That's better, honestly."

"We don't have to bother about them attacking, but there are also the ones that killed the three beasts of mine. Still need to be careful," he added. 

Many beasts near the river looked at Lucifer and his team that was flying, including some of the ants and the snakes, but no one tried attacking. 

Most couldn't either. Only the Dragons could fly amongst the beasts present here, and as long as they weren't bothered to join, others couldn't do anything.

Lucifer flew right above the river as he flew towards the Snow Mountain in the center. As for the river he was following, it was coming from one of the snow mountains as well.

As Lucifer reached closer to the mountain, his view became even clearer. He finally had a better view as to what he saw on top of the mountain. 

"A woman?" he muttered, frowning. 

He could see a woman that was standing on top of the mountain. She had just come out of the water as she finished taking a shower. There was not even a shred of cloth on her body. 

Lucifer was able to see the face of the woman and even her precious bits. The woman had deep red hair and pale silver eyes. There was a tattoo on her slim stomach that appeared to be a bird that had fire around her. 

The woman's face appeared to be very young as if she was in her early twenties. Her deep beautiful eyes created a serious aura around her, making her seem like a strict person. On the contrary, her cute puffy cheeks not only made her look cute but also adorable. 

The deep red hair of hers came down to her waist behind her back, still wet. 

Droplets of water trickled down her beautiful body. She bent forward and picked up a towel, and started wiping her body, starting from her face. 

Watching the young lady, Lucifer stopped. He also found the lady beautiful, but that wasn't why he stopped. There was something else. He didn't know why, but there was a strange feeling inside him. 

He couldn't understand what that feeling was. It was as if there was a familiarity between him and the woman, some kind of closeness. 

"Did something happen?" Salazar asked, bringing Lucifer out of his daze. He still couldn't see anyone on the mountain as it was still too far for his eyes to see. On the contrary, Lucifer saw everything, even some things he shouldn't have seen. 

"I can see her," Lucifer answered. 

"Her? You mean the one on the mountain is a girl?" 

"It is a woman in her early twenties. At least that's what I think. She should be able to help," Lucifer said, increasing his speed towards the woman. 

However, he saw something which made him stop abruptly.. His lips opened slightly at the sight.
