83. Summoning The Elder God.

"So, you're here seeking my help because you can't access other dimensions?"

In Linda's secret basement, five people stood in a circle. After hearing John's explanation, Linda finally understood the situation. To be honest, when she heard John say that Alex couldn't open dimensional portals through sacrificial magic, Linda almost thought Alex was a demon that crawled out of Hell's borderlands.

Linda had some past dealings with Mephisto and had some understanding of the Hell dimension he resided in. From her knowledge, many people couldn't practice magic, but almost no one was unable to connect to the Hell dimension. The only exception might be those blacklisted by the Hell dimension.

But what exactly were the Hell borderlands?

They were high supernatural dimensions ruled by Hell lords, places beyond ordinary imagination and comprehension. Being blacklisted by the Hell dimension and rejected from there suggested a terrifying background for Alex. However, this was just a hypothesis, as Alex clearly stated that he had never encountered the Hell borderlands or its demons before. From this perspective, the whole matter seemed to be at an impasse.

Alex was also very curious. Despite his many unique traits, none of them should affect the Hell lords. The only known clue was that the dimension instinctively rejected him, as if it had a 'call reject' setting specifically for him. Any communication was one-sidedly refused.

The Hell dimension was chaotic and wretched, with origins and history likely predating Earth's civilization. The fact that it specifically blacklisted Alex was deeply thought-provoking. Perhaps the Hell lords had discovered Alex when he first arrived in this universe. Or maybe his entirely different origin from this universe caused the borderland's barrier to reject him. for new novels

The most important question now was whether the Hell borderlands rejected Alex specifically, or if it rejected all 'foreigners' from other multiverses like him.

Originally, Alex planned to have Kara and Pietro try the sacrificial magic. If they also failed, it would mean the Hell borderlands were closed to all outsiders. If they succeeded, the issue was likely with Alex alone. However, Alex now had a better idea: with John's introduction, he would ask Linda to summon the demon with whom she had a master-servant contract.

"I see. She worships the Elder Gods because she's afraid Mephisto might seek revenge someday, right?" Alex glanced at Linda, who was chanting incessantly. "Has she never considered that she's just jumping from one bad situation to another?"

"No choice. Once you practice black magic, there's no turning back, especially for someone like her who's deeply connected with the Hell dimension. Mephisto is no saint. If Linda hadn't reacted quickly, she would've ended up like Martin. Do you know about Martin?"

"Which Martin?" Alex was puzzled.

"The guy known as the Master Mayhem. Early on, he sold his soul and signed a contract with Mephisto, turning his entire body into a host for demons. His body can open portals to the Hell dimension, allowing demons to come to Earth."

"I think I remember something about that." Alex searched his memory. It seemed like there was such a supervillain in the comics.

As they discussed these matters, a slight tremor in the surroundings drew everyone's attention back to Linda. Linda's chant was reaching its climax. Spider-web cracks appeared on the basement's ceiling and walls, gradually tearing apart. The crumbling ceiling rapidly seemed to 'fall upwards.'

It was as if a massive hole was being opened in the fabric of reality, and in an instant, a terrifying pressure enveloped everyone present.
