Mission: Voidstones 1

"Okay, Uhm.. You have a harem of Five Girls, same aged, But two where Succubi, the others were a human, a Fae and a Cambion..."

"Wait Cambions exist?" Slaine asked, a little stunned stunned of the types of Species that existed, different mixes and sometimes really annoying how they procreated.

"Yes, But those are as a result of Slavery for the past few years" She stated now comfortable with how close he was and he was too curious to even care.

"After I left to find gems Oblivion instructed him to get, I heard his home was attacked by the Hyperion and their leader, but they didn't find him just like that, one of the ladies in his harem...The Fae snitched on him and exposed all his plans, weaknesses and strengths to their leader after spending a night under his roof and unfortunately for Lord Furore, she was his favorite and suspected nothing about her."

"During the attack, I got a call from the Succubi, they requested for help, asking me to call the Demons and Beasts Furore trusted and was friends with for help. However, We arrived late, Furore had killed the Cambion, the fae and had the human badly Hurt in his arms, his trust for them faded when they wanted to abandon him in his darkest time so he killed them to avoid his secret and plans being sold out."

She paused to catch her breath, the memories flooded her mind like water and she hated it but she had to tell Slaine, or in this case, remind him, she smiled and then continued.

"War broke out between the Hyperion and Furore's Army, he was winning at an extremely fast rate. The remaining two girls in his harem fought beside him really well and advanced further, hoping they would bring the leader of the Hyperion to him and he would gain control over Khthonic again. I stayed by his side till we got to their headquarters, there we split up to cover more ground soaked with blood"

"When we got to the roof, we saw one of the girls cut in half, the other...Nyx was unconscious. He decided to take on their leader alone while I took Nyx away for safety... When we had gotten to the ground floor, I saw Furore's body drop from the roof and crash into ground, I dragged Nyx who was awake then to his body and he was in a very bad condition, his eyes had been gauged out from the sockets with blood pouring out of all the parts he was stabbed in"

"He made promises to us before asking that I cut his fingers and bury at the bottom of the River where we met" She concluded, wiping tears that fell from her face. She looked at Slaine and saw that his eyes looked dead, like she was staring into a void. He raised her hand to touch his face but he moved away and rose up.

"I will avenge Furore and Take over Hyperion myself," He declared without caring what the Hyperion was. The fact they killed furore for no just reason, turned people he trusted on him and made him leave behind people that would do anything for him.

"Ravena, You wouldn't mind taking on that Position again, right?"

"What position?" She asked, rising to her full height, he came closer making her uncomfortable once again. He grabbed her hand between his and squeezed it tight. "Be my Right hand man again and tell me everything I need to know about Furore, Oblivion, it's programming and programmer, infact anything about me and I promise to find you a Suitable mate even if it's the last thing I....."

"You know you're really Adorable and stupid for a Shadow lord" She interrupted, taking her hands out of his, she grabbed his collar and dragged him to to her height, inches away from his lips she smiled at his stunned expression.

"I will but you don't have to worry about my mate, I will tell who it is Later for now, let's focus on getting your memories back"

***

Slaine stood on the roof, staring at the city below, he could only think of how he became an enemy to a city for no reason. If he was someone who probably killed a Leader or did something that offended the whole city it would have been put somewhere, like a banner or so, but nothing. No posters of him, people rallying to find the newly Reincarnated Shadow lord.

It was like he was at a dead end and if he wanted to get answers, he had to get stronger, level up and maybe acquire weapons. He thought about facing a massive army that hated him so much they would walk in larva just to get to him, fighting with hands and Shadow abilities would not be the best, but if he imbued his energy and powers into weapon, they would work perfectly.

"Oblivion,"

[Yes]

"How do I level up?" He asked, sitting down at the edge of the building, ignoring the amount of danger he would be in if someone decides to push him off.

[Missions and Certain Tasks]

"Alright, I want my first mission?"

[You need to use your system screen to find suitable missions that you could handle easily ]

"You're sounding like I can't handle hard missions "

[Apologies but it is the truth, with your present stage you could only handle five for now]

"Okay, can I see ?"

The screen opened up before him, he saw a section titled Missions, stage one and it opened up.

If he had not read about magic, he would have not known anything about what was before him.

"What are Voidstones?"

[Gems, They add to your Points and also help boost the speed of your transformation ]

"Okay, what transformation?"

[The Shadow Demon had a human form and two other forms, A Dark figure capable of drifting and phasing through buildings like air, while the other is a regular demon form, with horns and other otherworldly features]

"I see, alright, where can I find Voidstones?"

[They can be found beneath The Khthonic Mountain and must be mined carefully to avoid explosions and waking Beasts ]

"If there's a chance I wake a beast up, what rank would it be"

[Fourth Grade]

"If I kill one"

[You get Points as well]

"Well that's good, how far is it from here?"

[Two hours drive, Thirty minutes flight, Four days on foot, or Five seconds Teleportation]

"Which is easier?"

[Teleportation is easier but there is a Sixty four percent chance you get frozen while teleporting and your freedom will be determined by how strong willed or How much energy you can emit and break through]

"Safer?"

[Flight, However you should avoid Shadow beasts]

"That will not be a problem "

[The duration of your Mission is Two weeks, failure to complete once you leave the mansion would call for punishments]

"Really?"

[Affirmative ]

Slaine scoffed and leaned backwards, with a satisfied smile on his face. He gets to begin his journey fully and get stronger, finish what furore couldn't and eventually be able to settle down afterwards and finally have his peace.
