Chapter 428 427- Fool of Traps
Zach and Asmodeus' main goal was to travel and reach the capital to easily access the inner hell gate, and whatever happened to them in their way was nothing but a nuisance.
They had wasted an hour fighting monsters in the hell's spawn, and there was no end to them. After Zach came up with an idea to deal with them, they had to wait for the domain caster to appear in front of them.
However, they didn't necessarily have to wait for the caster to move forward. They could continue their journey while still staying in the hell's spawn as it followed them anywhere.
The domain caster had trapped Zach and Asmodeus to an eternal hell's spawn, which they would never be able to escape; they were caged. However, the same cage was now protecting them from other monsters, as no one could enter inside the domain from outside or escape from inside.
Needless to say, Zach and Asmodeus continued walking without caring for the caster.
[Do you think you can keep this up for long?!] The caster yelled. [I don't know what you did, but you will run out of powers soon!]
Zach didn't even have to do anything to provoke the general lord as his every breath was triggering him.
[For how long will you walk? You will have to stop! You will have to take the rest! You will have to eat! You will have to drink! You will have to sleep! And when you do that, my monsters will kill you mercilessly! You are just delaying the inevitable!]
Zach casually stretched his hands while talking and turned to Asmodeus.
"Hey, Asmo, does hell have any insects?"
"Yes, but most of them are demonized. You will find the same insects as the human world, but more powerful. Some can even kill a normal demon."
"That sounds dangerous." Zach pretended to be shocked. "What should I do, Asmo? I keep hearing an annoying buzzing sound. Do you think that pest will bite me or just keep buzzing?"
"Oh, don't you worry about them. Those who buzz don't bite."
Asmodeus knew exactly what Zach was talking about, and she helped him trigger the domain caster.
They both were similar in a lot more ways than one could imagine.
Just like that, a few hours passed, and the domain caster didn't dare to appear in front of Zach and Asmodeus as he knew that he would be toast if he did. All he could do was yell while hiding in his spot.
He was waiting for the sun to set and the night to arrive. He thought Zach and Asmodeus would get tired and fall asleep. He wasn't trying to hide his cowardice at all.
Time passed, and the night arrived.
Zach and Asmodeus took a couple of breaks to eat and rest while enjoying the sightseeing, which was surprisingly admirable.
They saved a lot of time by taking a shortcut and traveling through the forest rather than by road. In less than 12 hours, they had crossed half the distance already, and if they continued without stopping, they would reach the capital by the morning.
Of course, Zach wanted to continue, but Asmodeus couldn't. She knew that the caster was waiting for them to fall asleep, so he could attack them, but there was no helping it. If she forced herself to keep walking, she would eventually pass out from exhaustion and end up troubling and burdening Zach even more.
Not to mention, neither Zach nor Asmodeus had slept a wink after they left the first town. Hence, Zach and Asmodeus decided to rest for the night by the mountain hills near the river.
"You can fall asleep without worry. I will keep an eye on us," Zach said to Asmodeus, who was barely managing to keep her eyes open.
"Are you not tired?" she asked.
"I am, but it's not that big of a deal. I have been in more dangerous situations. I am kind of used to it," he chuckled softly as he missed the girls.
'Even if we resume our journey in the morning and reach the capital tomorrow, I don't think we will be able to infiltrate into the inner hell easily. But I have already thought of all the possibilities and created a foolproof plan.'
Asmodeus fell asleep while talking with Zach, while the demons in her domain turned to Zach, seemingly waiting for his next command.
Zach watched Asmodeus and chuckled softly as he muttered, "So much for 'Not letting your guard down, huh?"
An hour later, Zach decided to close his eyes to save energy, but his main goal was to fool the caster into thinking that he had fallen asleep.
A few minutes later, Zach heard a house, but he didn't reach it because he wanted the caster to let his guard down first. He slowly opened his one eye while tilting his head to the side and a clear look at the caster.
He was actually an insect in a somewhat humanoid size.
"..."
He had a stinger instead of a nose and tail, and his hair seemed like wires. He had green and red scales instead of skin, which seemed plastic. And his ears were bigger than his face and looked just like a woofer.
'This bitch is a walking DJ!'
The caster was still far away from Asmodeus and Zach, so Zach waited for him to come close. He wanted to lure the caster into his trap and show him the meaning of a true trap. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝒎
When the caster was close enough, Zach opened his eyes and watched him. But the caster was focused on Asmodeus as she was closer.
"Oi!" Zach called out to him and showed him a middle finger.
"So you were awake, huh?" the caster said.
"What the fuck are you? You look like a villain from a kid's cartoon. Are all general lords so disgusting and ugly looking? If yes, then it would be easy to find them among the crowd," he scoffed.
"Laugh all you want. It doesn't matter what you say or do. What matters is who wins in the end. And I will have the last laugh!"
