Chapter 114: [Inverse World!]

"Well. Sure."

Nvida created a bunch of chairs around a round table and covered the entire area with a translucent barrier. While the dark mages added another red coloured barrier below that one.

Trisha, however, did not create any barrier as she simply sat on the chair beside me on the left side. And Nvida was a bit farther left of Trisha.

The Dark Mages sat exactly opposite to us, with the Purple mage in the center, Crazy manipulator on his right. Albedo was beside the mage, and that spear mage was beside the Manipulator.

"We will start first," the purple mage spoke as he began explaining,

"I will first tell you of our purpose here and our final goal. It is rather simple to be honest,

We want to revive the Demon Lord Laplace. That is the purpose of our visit here. According to a valuable source, the Book of Array is within these forests."

Hearing this, I then turned to the Crazy Manipulator and asked,

"You already know about it, don't you?"

All eyes turned to him as he looked at me with a confused face for a few moments.

'Eh? He doesn't?'

Though since I already sprouted nonsense, I decided to look serious and maintain character for now.

But then he smiled all of a sudden as he spoke.

"You really are scary, to be honest."

'Ehh? I am?'

"Does that surprise you?" I asked with a straight face.

"Not anymore, to be honest. Well... the Book of Array is the array of the forest itself. You can probably read about 4 pages of it, but with the right key, one can unlock all the pages of the book," he smiled as he explained the location.

'Holy Fuck... is what I would have said, but I already had a rough idea where it was.... But damn, that guy really knows, eh?'

"Adrius! You knew?!!!" the purple Magee shouted as he looked at the crazy manipulator, while I sat there looking at the dumbfounded and stupefied faces of everyone there.

Especially the Dark Mages.

"And you think you have the authority to speak to me like that?" Adrius, the Crazy Manipulator, spoke as he looked at the purple mage with his eyes much more dominant and serious than before.

"So, which of the keys you managed to find?" I asked, spouting a bit more bullshit on their faces, making them look at me with a surprised face.

"Haha... hahaha.... Hahahaha..." Adrius laughed like he heard the biggest joke before he looked at me with a narrowed look and an intense gaze.

"You really know a lot... or perhaps you know everything? I can't really stop myself if you keep doing that."

'The Fuck with the suspicious words?!!!!!'

"Since when you were here?" Nvida asked as she looked at Morpheus, and he smiled as he answered.

"Since this guy was horny."

Well. It wasn't a lie to be fair.

Nvida gawked at Morpheus in disbelief, as she felt a strange fear. Her eyes were shaking as she looked at Morpheus.

"And who might.... You be?" the purple-haired mage spoke as he observed Morpheus with a fear filled look.

"The name is Morpheus. One of the brothers of Salvation, working with Wesker in these parts. But let's move to the interesting topic..." Morpheus bent a little closer as he continued,

"You guys wanted to go to the Inverse World?"

I made the clone smile a bit more evilly and made him look insane to produce a vibrant effect. And the result was beautiful as everyone felt a chill down their spine hearing him.

"We.. do...." Albedo spoke out slowly, mustering up some courage, and Morpheus made a satisfied grin as he looked at me.

"No. We are not using our powers until either the day comes or our life is in danger. Don't show it off just for fun," I glared at Morpheus, making him sulk a little while he sighed.

"You are no fun."

"Excuse me?... what exactly are you both talking about?" the Crazy Manipulator asked as he looked at me with slight agitation.

"Hmmm... I guess, it doesn't matter if I tell you or not since you are going to come after us anyway but... Morpheus is someone who has lived a portion of his life in the Inverse World," I spoke, making all of them turn at him with a baffled look.

Morpheus made a smug look as I laughed on the inside.

While it was bullshit, it wasn't a complete lie since I had been to the Inverse World for sometime. Not as Morpheus, of course. But in my previous life.

"It's been a while since I've been to that place, though," Morpheus said, making them gulp. Especially the dark mages, as if they found a treasure or something.

"That is enough for now, I guess. Well, let's get back to the main task at focus. You guys want to revive the first Demon Lord, Laplace, right?" I asked as I looked at them, taking their focus back at me.

The purple mage nodded as he turned serious. His eyes looked at Morpheus from time to time.

"It's hard, but... I think I can help you find a way to do that without the keys and the book of array. Would that be fine with you?" I spoke as I looked at them as a certain information came to my mind.

It's not entirely impossible if I could find a certain object and a certain person.

"Huh?!" The Crazy manipulator spoke as he finally registered what I just said.

"..."

"..."

"..."

While the others still stared blankly at me.
