"If I want to meet this Lailah Alden, where do I go, Miss?" the girl shook her head, "No one can meet Lady Alden whenever they wish, Lord, even the Emperor himself yearning to get that heavenly blessing"

"We'll see about that '' Gaya didn't like all these exaggerations about Lailah, for Gaya, this Lailah woman was just another overrated cultivator in the Elon Continent.

"Thank you for everything, Miss," Michael said, nodding before leaving the garden with Gaya. They chased away the group of people as Michael so no use in keeping them around.

"We are going to Rainbow islands," She was determined to save the baby dragon, nothing would stop them from doing so.

"Where is it?"

"In the Endless ocean, we have to find a portal, although it won't let us travel into the Rainbow islands domain, we can reach the border. Flying would take at least four weeks, we don't have that time" She explained, recalling everything she knew about Royal land to find a portal.

"THE DEVIL HAS STRUCK AGAIN!"

"THE DEVIL HAS STRUCK AGAIN!"

"THE DEVIL HAS STRUCK AGAIN!"

Just as they were in deep thinking, their train of thoughts was stopped by a panicked voice. They turned their head towards the voice's direction to see a young man who looked pale screaming as loud as he could,

"RUNAWAY, THE DEVIL HAS STRUCK AGAIN!" The young man kept screaming while the people who were strolling on the streets quickly covered in fear.Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

"HIDE, HIDE INSIDE YOUR HOMES, LUCIFER HAS STRUCK AGAIN!"

Michael's body went rigid after hearing the young man screaming the name 'Lucifer'. Both of them creased their brows, looking at each other confused,

"What's going on here?" Michael asked as he walked in the direction of the young man, the previously crowded alleyway now became grim. When he was just about to grab the young man and question, he saw a group of soldiers rushing towards something.

Michael and Gaya ignored the screaming young man and followed the soldiers to get some answers. Getting out of the alleyway, they stepped into the main street which was paved with greyish stones, while many people ran in the opposite direction of the soldiers, Michael followed the soldiers behind with a few other daredevils.

The more they followed the soldiers, the more chaos and soldiers they witnessed in the streets of Royal land. Soon, they reached the town's square, in the middle of the square, a group of soldiers clad in full iron plate armor formed a line preventing the citizens from seeing the horror behind them.

The smell of fresh blood permeated the square, through the gaps in the crowd before him, he noticed the fountain in the square was painted splashes of red.

"What's happening?" Michael asked an old woman in front of him to know more about what's going on here,

"It's the devil young man, it has killed yet again" the old woman was too focused on craning her neck to see through the crowd as she didn't even look at Michael while speaking

"Yes"

"System, can you at least give me a teleportation scroll that would get me to Rainbow islands or closer to them?"

[...]

[...]

He had no reply from the system, he was just about to close the interface when he heard the familiar voice again,

[4000 badass points]

"Take it" he could swear that he sensed the excitement in the system's voice which went back to the old robotic voice before he upgraded it to level 3.

For now, he knew he won't get any answers from the system, so he just retrieved the teleportation scroll he just bought from the system.

"We need to find a portal," Gaya said when he exited the system.

"No need" Since Michael couldn't reveal the fact that he just bought the scroll from the system, he pretended to draw symbols on the scroll. With the help of the system, the ordinary-looking scroll in his hand slowly began to glow? as he was drawing symbols on them

"What are you doing?"

"Creating a teleportation scroll, I can't create them often as it would take a toll on my mental health but I had to use this skill this time" she would have stopped him if she had a better way but time was on the essence and this seemed to be the only way to save the traveling time.

Keeping the scroll in his hand, Michael moved further into the dark alley,

"Happy hunting," He said before tearing the scroll. A golden light instantly wrapped around his body,

"If you can't save Dicky, don't come back," she said, looking at the faint smile on his face before the golden light disappeared from her sight along with him.

"Return to me safely human, I have a confession to make" as she said, she retrieved the love potions she took from the batch he brewed. She looked at the two potions one last time before crushing them to oblivion.

During their trip to Royal land, she felt her feelings for him had indeed grown stronger. Initially, she wanted to test herself using the love potion but now, she decided to confess to him because she couldn't imagine a life with someone else.

Gaya was positive that he feels the same way about her, only, he didn't seem to make the first move, so she took the matter into her own hands.

The moment he comes back, she would drag him somewhere alone and confess her feelings.

"For now, I need to find that copycatting fuck and flay him alive" she put her hood on before leaving the dark alley with a resolute to kill the fake Lucifer.
