Chapter 305 Laws

Ch.305 Laws

Gaia’s Spirit Sense immediately picked up the change in the ambient Magical Energy. The abnormal soul attribute of this world’s strangely golden coloured magical energy was still there, but the passiveness of the energy had changed. It was something different and noticeably more... sinister. Furthermore, instead of gold it was red in colour.

Neutral Magical Energy in other worlds was blue, but here it was gold and had an abnormal soul-feeling. It was because of that that she had thought that she was in a Sacred Land back when she first woke up, after all, only Sacred Lands had attributed Magical Energy that resulted in colour changes. But when she grew strong enough to travel freely, she discovered that there seemed to be no limit to this ‘Sacred Land’ and that it encapsulated pretty much everything, but how could that be?

It was only later when the Dragon Mountain became a real Sacred Land that she realised that what she had been experiencing before was just the Eridius World’s regular state. It was astonishing.

Now again, she had discovered a new type of Magical Energy, but this once seemed to be greatly different to the Sacred Lands that she had discovered before.

‘What kind of nefarious energy is this and why is it so...’ Her thoughts trailed off as her frown deepened.

‘Could this be a forbidden land?’ Her heart skipped a beat at that possibility and she almost reactively retracted her Spirit Sense.

A forbidden land was one of those strange hidden locations in the Eridius World that held profound and dangerous secrets that most people stayed away from. She speculated that they held highly unique treasures, but with her current strength she didn’t dare to be greedy, the only thing she could do was plan future expeditions.

Technically, every world would have dangerous and mysterious locations like this and they all had their own names, but here they were unanimously called the Forbidden Lands. This was because so long as a ruler was sane, they would forbid their factions from seeking death in these various lands of death.

Till date, apart from Jörma, nobody had succeeded in benefiting from entering these hazardous lands and that was a dreadful statistic. So since nobody wanted to die and the Devourer was unwilling to share her experience and methods, everyone could only continue to pretend like those locations did not exist and avoid them, including Gaia.

What kind of situation had she stumbled upon?

...

[Deep within the Corrupted Continent]

“What was that...?” A hoarse voice spoke into the silence.

Surrounded by eerie trees that had blood coloured leaves, a large group of humanoids gazed up at the murky grey sky with various troubled expressions on their faces that ranged from shock to fear.

They almost all had red hair and red eyes, but they were not all of the same race. There seemed to be 2 races here. One of them had pale skin that was patterned with different amounts of red symbols, mostly on their legs, arms and chest. And the other didn’t have any of those markings but they had large butterfly wings on their back that were a beautiful scarlet colour. Just one glance was enough to know that they were highly charged with Mana.

The aura and thick scent of blood surrounded them like fog that would have made normal beings freeze in fear, and it was very obvious that these people were very dangerous.

Clearly, this was the Red Devil race and the Blood Fae.

However, it was this very daunting and scary group that were looking up at the sky with dumbfound expressions.
