31 Ghast

ShiShiShi.*

"Are you making fun of me, you arrogant little one"

On the first floor surface, about a kilometer from the base of Har, a fair-haired youth with a golden cross on his right ear was fighting outnumbered in a village.

This is not a simple fight like in the game, the raiders kept in the distance shooting with their crossbows, the vindicators surrounded the young man waiting with sharp iron axes.

Outside the circle of opponents lay a man in a black robe edged in gold, waving his hands from time to time, and small winged demons were summoned to unite and attack the youth.

"They underestimate me too much."

The young man, who is actually the old man that Har encountered before entering the first floor, had been nimbly dodging the looters' arrows, not for nothing had he waited 5 years to become a Runner.

Unlike his older brother, he has always been cautious and rigorously prepared even when it was just a tutorial.

swoosh*

Swoosh*

swosssh*

The looters had a bad feeling and shot all at once without hesitation, they were completely unaware of this person's intentions but his instincts screamed at them to kill him.

Clap* Dink* Dink* Dink*

The young man pulled out a shield out of nowhere and pinned it in front of him in an instant, he jumped on the shield and did a perfect backflip avoiding the arrows fantastically.

The Maldeans around him were very shocked by this scene and it was the first time they had seen anything like that, however, the little winged demons paid no attention to him and quickly flew towards the young man with murderous intent, red veins like cracks were spreading all over him. their bodies from their chests, they held the iron swords almost as big as their bodies and were ready to kill.

ShiShiShi*

The little Vexes chuckled and were about to fill the youth with sword holes, but as if his life was not in danger, the youth simply spread his hands with an indifferent expression.

"Principality Observation, appears."

With a bright light, a large angelic figure appeared floating about two meters in front of the young man, his large body seems to be wearing exquisite white armor, he carries a one-meter staff in his hands, on his forearm he carries a golden shield with a red sun In its center, what attracts the most attention are its 4 golden and white wings behind it and a golden halo that lies on its head.

"You're not the only one capable of summoning."

The young man looked at the black robed man in the distance, he seemed to be very confident of his summoning and calmly walked up to his shield, even putting it in his inventory as if he no longer needed it.

"Now, all his weapons will be mine."

...

Waaaahh...*

With a ghostly scream resounding in his head, Zac's eyes began to capture reality correctly and everything stopped spinning, when he was supposed to be familiar with the environment was when he was most stunned.

In front of him everything seemed to have turned into a nightmare, the entire ground was covered in a sea of ​​boundless burning magma, inhuman creatures never seen before jumped on the magma like a fish in water, the sky was covered in red as if it had no allowed to fit in this place.

"Woooh!"

His body was thrown back without warning which almost caused Zac to have a heart attack, he thought that the demons of this place had discovered him and would take him away to imprison him for life in this hell.

"Ssshh, they haven't seen us yet."

A terrifying hand covered his mouth and he almost jumped in fright, but when he saw the owner of the hand he calmed down for the first time since he entered this place, it was Mike.

Har was up ahead observing the surroundings, he hoped he would meet the fortress as soon as he entered, but obviously he had no luck.

'At least we're on land.'

Har noted that they were on the edge of a piece of land, or inferno in this case, he quickly ordered the clones to make a path to the "surface" of the Nether.

"Hey Har, I don't get it, why do you want to come to this place?"

Zac spoke with a trembling voice, he looked everywhere very alert, he seemed to think that this underworld is like the myths about hell on earth, he believed that at any moment a demon with black wings would come to take him to the bottom of the magma and torture him by the eternity.

"Somewhere in this dimension lies what is needed to return Mike to normal."

Har said without expression, before he avoided saying this in case they both refused to enter, since they are here it is good to inform them so that they get a little motivated.

Just as he thought, a light shone in both of their eyes and something of courage surged in their hearts.

'He came to hell itself to find a cure for me, and to think that I almost didn't get in before, I did the right thing by following my instincts.'

'I thought this was just a test of manhood, they are braver than in high school.'

A small smile appeared on the faces of Mike and Zac, they seemed very grateful for Har's consideration and at the same time for the companions they had found.

"Don't worry too much, the creatures in this place are not as hellish as you think."

Har didn't want to keep that vibe going and just teased them a bit.

'Are not so"...'

Mike and Zac looked at Har with a strange expression, he literally just confirmed the existence of hellish creatures here.

"Urg-Ñraaah..."

"What the hell?"

An extremely strange sound was heard by the three of them here, Zac and Mike became defensive and turned towards the magma sea, expecting a creature to come out of there at any moment.

Har ignored them and took out his diamond sword from the inventory, he already knew that sound and it's not something he attacks from the ground.

"Stop screaming and give me your tears, I want to make some potions."

Har turned his head towards the "sky", on an island about 50 meters from them floated a figure of about 5 meters with a terrifying shape, it was a large white head with tentacles coming out from under it, his eyes turned completely black and He opened his mouth preparing to spit something out.

Glup*

Mike and Zac swallowed, turned their heads when they heard Har and were terrified by that creature that was watching them in the distance.

"Nraaa..."

The creature's mouth glowed with red light, and the next second a fireball with a radius of about 30 centimeters was shot straight at them.

"Run!"

Mike and Zac wouldn't wait for the attack to come, their little hope that the creature would only melee was thrown away directly by that fireball, what surprised them was that Har didn't move an inch.

"H-hey, this is no time to be paralyzed, it's time to run."

Shouts of concern sounded behind him, but Har didn't move, staring into the fireball.

"Damn, it's late already."

Just as Mike prepared to pull Har out of harm's way, the fireball was already in front of him ready to explode against his body.

"Heh, this far you've come."

Surprisingly, Har sneered even in this situation, suddenly raising his sword and vertically slashing the fireball.

Dink*

As if it were a game of Baseball, the fireball was repelled by the sword's slash and shot at high speed back at the Ghast in the distance.

"...!!"

Mike and Zac's eyes went wide like two spotlights and their jaws were ready to drop to the ground in surprise, when they saw Har's cut they were hoping the fireball would cut through and not hurt him. damage, they never imagined that it would reject the fireball like that.

"urg"

The fireball flew 50 meters in an instant and crashed into the creature without giving it time to react, its fireballs have always been destructive and it kills the opponent in a single attack, who would say that one day it would be hit by its own ability.

"Nraaah..."

With eyes full of resentment, the great white head fell on the small island of inferna in the distance, it looked at the cause of its suffering and wanted to kill him with its gaze, unfortunately for this Ghast that is impossible, only a crystalline tear came out of its eyes and was left floating around with a few experience orbs.

End of the chapter.
