615. Dread (End of Book 11/Volume 6 Part 2)

The Devil was gone. I didnt know when he would return. Perhaps with the time dilation caused by the corruption, he could return in a day, or maybe he could return in a century. What happened next? I didnt know.

I couldnt even predict it. But what I knew was that now I had finally accomplished what I had originally set out to do. It was so long ago I had only been a Lesser Demon back then, and I had been dragged out of the Netherworld against my will.

I found myself in the Mortal Realm, and I promised myself that Id find a way back. I swore that I would return to my companion. That I would return to Haec.

And I finally did.

But before we could spend much time catching up, we were interrupted. First by the Beast, then by a bunch of the Demon Kings minions, and finally by the Devil. Now, however, all interruptions had been dealt with. And I could actually sit down and talk with my first ever companion.

I walked up to Haec as he shifted back, standing before his friends. He swept his gaze over Taburas, Bertrugil, and Aemula, before looking back at me. He scratched the back of his head as he looked towards where my dad had been.

And he asked in an uncertain voice.

...what do we do now?

It was a simple question. At least, to me, the answer was obvious. But to the four Archdemons standing there in the middle of my pocket space, they looked truly lost.

So I just shrugged back at them.

Well, we do what we were going to do before save your friends from the Demon King.

It was a simple answer. Which was the only appropriate answer to what was asked. However, Haec was taken aback by what was said. He blinked a few times, but it was Taburas who piped up.

But what about the end of the world?

She stared at me with wide eyes. I crossed my arms simply, meeting her gaze.

What about it?

I asked casually. In response, Bertrugil narrowed his eyes, frowning at me.

Shouldnt we do something about it? Considering well, I dont know if you realize this, but we live in the world, so if it ends, we die too?

He spoke emphatically. And I sighed, shaking my head. I gave the same explanation to the four Archdemons that I gave Daniel and Edithe so long ago.

The Beast roamed the Netherworld, enraged by its encounter with [The Great Agarus].

The Spirit Lord waited.

And in Mavos Academy, Rachel wandered out of the campus-city. She trudged through a dense forest, stepping over the fallen branches, deviating away from the gravel path. Her brows were furrowed as she muttered to herself, searching for a scent that was so familiar to her.

It has to be here somewhere

She paused for a brief moment when she encountered a strange hole in the ground. Like something had burrowed its way through the earth. But she just shrugged and continued past it.

Thats not it. It should be right aha!

Rachel exclaimed as she uncovered a small cavern. A voice resounded in her head as she stepped into the dusty room, beaming from ear to ear.

I found it!

Now Entering [Lair: Cave of Companions]!

She stepped foot into the small cavern, seeing the scattered books strewn around alongside the odd trinket or so decorating the walls. Rachel placed a hand on her hips as her gaze landed on a magic circle drawn on the ground in the center of the room.

Now I wonder if theres anything here I can use to find her

As Rachel wondered aloud, a strange goblet filled with black water glinted in the back of the room.

End of Salvos Book 11

Author's Notes:

Thanks for reading as always!

There will be no public chapters for about three weeks as Patreon catches up on chapters. Which means I will be continuing to post on Patreon, meaning it is the best time to sub right now! MelasDelta | Writing Web Serials / Web Comics | Patreon

This book was especially hard to write because I was quite demotivated while writing most of it. I am still quite burnt out on writing, considering that I have been writing non-stop for the last 3 years without taking even a single week off posting. But... I'm slowly recovering my energy, I think.

I'm quite excited to write more about Salvos and Haec in Volume 7 Part 1, while also writing about what else goes on in the Mortal Realm. It's a hard balance for me to maintain. However, I have a plan in mind, and if I execute it well, it's gonna be so good.
