10 And so, the journey began with the two...

Azurel great forest

After teleporting from the lab Samael and Morana came to the great Azurel forest.

'Well this feels nostalgic.'

[master you are back to where Victor picked you up. This place is called Azurel great forest, it's one of the most dangerous places in the lower planes. And near here is the ghost valley another most dangerous places here.]

'hmm. How much do you know about lower plains?'

[well I've managed to gather some information during this time. Lower plains have 5 continents:

Azurel the one we are in right now, Zoa, Navaren, Lammina and Sanctus.

They consist of 5 countries: The Holy empire, "Union" which consists of 4 countries which were separate but they united in order not to be oppressed by other great empires each country is governed by royals separately but everything outside the country is decided by the council of 12 where each country has 3 members.

Next is Samaria kingdom this is where we are right now. Samaria is one of the oldest and mightiest kingdoms and it holds the whole Azurel continent. It has 33 districts plus capital. Samaria follows the religion of the goddess of creation and respects power the most, they believe the once with the most power, are more blessed so anyone can become the ruler and do anything they want here as long as they can.

Samaria is ruled by "the Triad" once every 10 years anyone can challenge any of the 3 and take their place for the next 10-years.

All three are best at different thing strength and military, politics and business.]

Morana was very intrigued by the country she was in right now and she had a great wish to explore it.

[Aegis kingdom is the oldest they believe in the god of darkness opposite of the holy empire.

The last one is Arctic tribes as the name suggests they consist of lots of tribes 24 to be exact and they much like Union came together in order not to be taken over by other three great countries and they have similar ruling system as the union only difference is instead of the council of 12 there is a council of chiefs.]

'I see so these 5 countries occupy the 5 continents.'

[not exactly other than 5 countries there are 3 academies, 4 sects, and 7 great families the territory they occupy belongs to them and not any other country.]

'how come?'

[well I don't know the whole details but it seems 5 countries have tried to take over them before but failed and there were lots of casualties so they became separate powerhouses.]

'Hmm. What are they called?'

[3 academies are: first academy, academy of 4 arts, and the Phoenix academy. 4 sects are: Cloud water sect, Asura demon sect,

Red rose sect, first lotus sect. And 7 great families are: Agat family, Ling family, Jian family, Kashia family, Arcana family, Argent family, Nakamura family.

Now I will tell you about 7 deadly places. First is Asurel great forest, where we are, then Arctic desert, Volcanic forest, Sinners sea, Dream city, Ghost valley the one that is near us and the great bridge.

Other than that there are also 12 great cities: Holy capital, sky city, Dream city, Beast city, Medical city, Ancient city, city of the dead, Underground city, water city, Arctic city, Silver city also known as Slave city and Utopia much like 3 academies, 4 sects, and 7 great families 12 great cities are separate powerhouses they are all no more safe than 7 deadly places some even say they are deadlier.]

'why is Dream city one of 7 deadly places?'

[no one knows this information is provided by life card after someone is born. No one knows who made this list things change sometimes but that's very rare anyway no one has come out of the Dream city to tell the tale so no one knows.]

'is there anything else?'

[well even though there are many religions in lower planes there are three main ones: goddess of light, god of darkness, and goddess of all creation.]

"hey Rana not that I mind but you have been spacing out a bit."

Samael's voice brought Morana to reality.

��We need to blend in and get more information so we can decide on our next move. Is there anywhere you would like to go?"

"My powers are in need of recovery, I also need to heal my wounds so, we need to find places with dense dark mana." Said Samael while observing Morana's face.

"Hmm." Contrary to what Samael thought Morana didn't have much reaction and just went back to her thoughts.

'System which of this places it the best for him?'

[Dense dark mana can be found in Aegis kingdom, as they believe in a god of darkness Dark mana is everywhere, but I am not sure about its density you will still need to look. Also, dark mana can be found in places where great tragedies happened or death places of lots of people like war zones and epidemics or massacre sites. For now, my data on this place is not enough that I can suggest a specific place.]

'I see. Then lets' go to the Aegis kingdom and you can start gathering information on the way'

[Yes master.]

'now that I think about it, I still haven't given you the name. Even if you are Inventors system, you still need a name I can't just call you system all the time.' Said Morana.

Hearing her system became exited and said cheerfully [really master. I will have a name? What is it? Tell me, tell me.]

'Hmm. We need a suitable name, I have decided from now on you will be called Jolly.'

Hearing Morana's words systems drams of having a super duper awesome name crumbled.

[master I think this lowly system doesn't need a name after all.]

'what is it? Don't you like the name that I gave you?' Asked Morana with a smile, but the system was sure he heard a threat in her words.

[how can I not master. Jolly is so happy with the master's name. you are the best master in the world.] Jolly hurriedly started his flattery, while secretly condemning his black belly master and his luck.

"If you need dense dark mana, we can start the journey to the Aegis kingdom, its country that worships the god of Darkness, it's pretty far and we might encounter other places good for your condition." Said Morana to Samael, after finishing her conversation with Jolly.

"Hmm. Then lets' go to the Aegis kingdom." Agreed Samael.

After deciding what to do they started to descend from the forest.

And so, the journey began with the two…
