The witch thought I am a Demon God-Chapter 571 - 329: King of Rats (Combined - 2)
Behind the wall, Asmodius Hellfire sneered disdainfully. "This is madness. What on earth is happening here! Is this really the soul world of a mere mortal? A mere wizard... The power of this Spirit World and its vast expanse, there is no way such a feat could be accomplished by individual strength. This..."
As it looked down, its pupils suddenly shrank, because the chain beneath it began to move.
It... had taken the wrong turn.
When it looked up, indeed, the path it had chosen was a dead end. It had run so fast that it hadn’t noticed it had ended up in a cul-de-sac while trying to escape.
What should it do?
As Asmodius Hellfire considered viable solutions, a familiar entity appeared from its left side into this labyrinth of corridors.
It was Ayana of the LS.
At this moment, Ayana’s eyes were ice cold, and she spoke with an unmerciful tone. "Yes, Karlprut was right, I also see higher secrets above the realm of demons."
Simultaneously, the entire underground palace vibrated again, and three black pyramids rose from the depths of the palace.
Asmodius Hellfire was now tightly bound by the maze’s iron chains, and both Ayana and Karlprut were pursuing it.
Despair began to set in, and it started to regret ever possessing Ivita’s body.
...
On another side of the maze, the Dark Lady of Light said to the Hunger Demon, "I can easily choose the correct path with my divination, the maze can’t stop me. Divination is second nature to me, just like my limbs. So while the maze can suppress our power, it cannot stop my divination."
Standing before a three-way junction, the two demons stopped again.
The Dark Lady of Light threw three black dice onto the ground, with the numbers 1, 3, and 5 facing up. The Dark Lady of Light scanned the numbers. "The total is nine, so the third path from the left hand side is the right way."
She pointed to the road on the far right. "That one."
"Though the maze can’t stop us for now, both this Spirit World and the maze are not simple, their ranks are too high. We’d better leave here as soon as possible. After leaving here, let’s quickly get out of Ivita’s shadow."
"Originally, we only wanted to occupy the body of a promising new noble. But it seems now, we are in the way of certain entities."
"If we dare to block this path, we will definitely pay the price."
The leadership of the Dark Lady of Light had completely convinced the Hunger Demon, a fellow high-ranking demon. "Right, we have finally descended into the mortal world; there is no need to risk it all on Ivita."
"How far have we gone in this dungeon’s maze?"
The Dark Lady of Light shook her head, "Two-thirds. Only the last third remains. Hopefully, nothing bad will happen. We should be in luck..."
The underground palace suddenly shook, and a series of black pyramids rose within the dim dungeon.
A strange sound permeated the entire maze of the dungeon.
This strange sound made the entire dungeon maze sound like an enormous underground tomb.
The Hunger Demon said to the Dark Lady of Light, "Those three..."
While speaking, a fourth black pyramid rose within the underground palace.
"What are those four black inverted pyramid towers?"
The Dark Lady of Light gazed at it sorrowfully. "Don’t you understand? Those are places where the powers of the demons that had previously entered Ivita’s Spirit World and got captured are suppressed. It’s so ridiculous, we demons have turned into prey and are being hunted."
The Hunger Demon gasped. "I’ve had a thought, actually."
"Tell me." The Dark Lady of Light looked around, trying to search for something.
The Hunger Demon said, "Think about it, who could be capable of demon hunting? The Witch King of the emperor rank could do it, possibly even the forces behind The Church, but who next? Perhaps the kings of the nations have the resources to go this far, but their current actions don’t seem like the style."
"What I want to say is... Could there be a non-human camp targeting us, purposely scheming to provoke discord between Hell and the witches, and tearing the faces off human countries?"
The Dark Lady of Light’s face slightly changed. "Previously, when I saw Ivita wearing the Druid’s Conference Ring, I thought it was unrelated, but now..."
"During the Time War, the Druids did obtain a portion of the plague, but most of it went to the humans. But the first occurrence of the Black Death happened before the Time War, so I overlooked the connection between the Druids and the Black Death."
"But what if the effects of the Black Death are deeply connected to the Druids?"
The Hunger Demon seethed with rage. "Damn those Druids. They’re more detestable than ten Hells and ten sources of plagues combined."
Then, in front of their three-way junction, many Fire Birdmen, their bodies aflame, appeared out of nowhere.
These Fire Birdman Monsters surrounded them all.
The Dark Lady of Light’s face turned desperately grim. She could temporarily recover her strength using the residual Law of Hell within her, but even so, she was no match for the large group of Fire Birdman Monsters in the dungeon maze.
