12 Chapter 11 - The Demon Realm

When Zeroth woke up ,he saw that he was lying on the floor of the battle field and the Healing God was healing him and the rest other Gods and The king surrounded him.

Then The king said, " Zeroth ,are you fine?".

"Yes, your highness " , replied Zeroth. Then Zeroth paused for a while and then said, " What happened after I fainted, is everyone else fine ?".

" Yes , the others are fine. After you fainted the Dark God said that it is just the beginning and that he will soon wage a war against the King for the crown and will rule the world ,after that he left . " , said Jack, the soul God.

" I must leave now to become strong enough to defeat the Dark God until he wages the war.", said Zeroth.

Then Zeroth stood up and was going to exit the Arena, when the King stopped him and asked, "Then, what about the ceremony ?".

" I cannot accept the title right now as I am not worthy enough to hold it . I will claim it when I defeat the Dark God .", said Zeroth.

" I believe in you that you will succeed in becoming more strong and .... I have one request , I believe that the Dark God has captured the Royal Captain, Lucas, he was a great friend and was very loyal towards the kingdom, but he suddenly dissapeared one day and I think the Dark God is behind his disappearance . If you ever find Lucas or hear about him, please help him and get him back to the kingdom. I am worried about him."

" Thank you your highness and I promise you that I will bring Lucas safely back to the kingdom. "

" Thank you Zeroth, I believe you. Now you can continue your journey. "

Then Zeroth left the Arena and then straightaway went to the harbour and sailed to the Witch island.

When Zeroth reached the Witch island, he first went to the village, there he was shocked to see the death bodies of the villagers. He then rushed to the house of village head.

There he was relieved to see that the village head was still alive and then approached him and asked, " What happened here?".

" The Dark God betrayed us, a year ago , the Dark God knew that you were going to come to the Witch island in search of Alsion, so he came to our village and devised a plan in which we were told to make you meet him as Eric, the captain of village's magical defense forces and the person rumored to have found the entrance to Alsion , he said that if we co-operated with him he would never attack our village but if someone denied him, he will kill all the villagers. We did as he said but then he suddenly showed up again, after you left and killed all the villagers and just spared my life ,cause he believed that you would return to the witch island soon, so he let me live to tell you the truth and to tell you to stop interfering in his goals or else he will kill you as he has killed the villagers and your parents .", said the village head.

" The attack on the village after I returned from Alsion, was that also his plan?"

" Yes, he has no humanity in him , to achieve his goals he can even sacrifice his members and close ones. It was his plan to join you in your journey , so that he can analyze your strength and weaknesses ."

Then Zeroth thanked the village head for telling him the truth and promised him that he would make the Dark God pay for his Sins.

Then Zeroth left the village and entered the vast forest and then entered the waterfall that led to Alsion .

When he entered the waterfall, he saw that the Castle was half destroyed and then he rushed inside it. There he saw Alan seated on the the throne and asked him, " What happened here Master?"

" So you came Zeroth, I don't have much time left. So I will explain everything to you in brief. ", said Alan, then he paused for a while and then said, " When your father, Leon failed to destroy the Book of Z , he came to me for help and told me that with his current strength he was only able to divide the book into two parts and that he would like to give me the responsibility of keeping safe one of the part of the Book of Z and that he would seal the other part. So, I took the responsibility of one of the part and I had been protecting it until about 3 days before when suddenly the Dark God showed up and challenged me and after defeating me took the book away from me . I used to absorb strength from that part of the Book of Z , to stay alive for a longer period of time , and now that part is not there with me , so my life force is depleting very rapidly. I just wished to see you before I died and now that wish has been fulfilled . I know that you came here to seek more strength but I have nothing more to give to you , but I will with my remaining strength teleport you to the Demon Realm , I've been there with your father , they are very strong and can help you in becoming strong and they will instruct you the way to return to this world.", said Alan.

"Ok ,master "

" Soon The Dark God will conduct a ceremony to combine both the parts of the Book of Z, when it happens the entire world would be covered with darkness and then he will inherit all of its power. You must defeat him before he inherits that power.

"Ok, master. I promise you that I will defeat him."

" I believe you ,Zeroth. Now I can rest in peace".

Then Alan approached Zeroth and then chanted some words and then when Zeroth was being teleported, he could see Alan disappear in the air.

Then when Zeroth opened his eyes he found himself in an entirely new place.
