John and the three other stalwarts from the Order Faction swiftly reached a transmission point within the Dark Realm via the oceanic teleportation array.
Upon arrival, John noticed an eerie absence of demons around the Dark Realm's transmission point.
The weaker demons he had encountered during his previous visit had vanished, as if their powers had been absorbed by more formidable entities.
"Why is the situation in the Dark Realm so different from what I expected? I thought this place would be teeming with powerful dark power," John pondered, reflecting on the stark contrast to his anticipations.
Natasha, whose understanding of the Dark Realm had been superficial at best, had harbored the notion that it was a place thoroughly permeated with sinister energies and the quintessence of dark power.
This preconceived image had painted in her mind a landscape fraught with malevolent forces and ominous presences.
