Chapter 1442: What Did I Just See?!
After seeing that vision I collapsed on the ground, making my Spirits a bit worried. "Master!" I heard Naturia from behind, hugging me with her little arms.
I sighed in relief, as I felt my fear and anguish wash away by their healing magic, I felt refreshed.
"Ugh, that was the worst..." I sighed. "I saw... I think I was in freaking hell for a second."
"Hell?!" Alice gasped. "You mean... the world where the True Demons come from?"
"Yes..." I nodded, sighing once more. "Hahh... My head was spinning so much, I thought I was going to puke at any moment! W-What the hell was all of that..."
Even more, that being, that man. That absolute King of all True Demons... Its presence, it felt even more overwhelming than all the Gods combined when I was called into their meeting. If that thing were to come to this world. It would be the end.
What I saw back there could only be described as terrifying, a twisted infernal world of flames and screaming, agonizing souls. Beings beyond human comprehension that predated on everything and everyone. Mutant monstrosities that ate one another and infected everything with ever-growing cancerous tumors that spread across this infernal landscape.
Forests made of rotting corpses, lakes made of deadly acid where all beings that touched it melted into nothing, a dark red sky that never saw the sun or the moon, nor day or night, it was an endless dark red sky, and nothing else.
I always thought I was prepared for anything after what I've lived, but even now I feel a bit weird and dizzy, damn.
"What did you see?"
Ignatius asked me this question with a straight face as I curled up on my bed again.
"Isn't it a bit rude to just ask her that after how she felt?"
Furoh was trying to reprimand Ignatius, although it wasn't quite working.
"A leader?!" Beelzebub asked. "But aren't they like barbarians in a way? They have no leaders aside from... No, wait a second."
"They have noble titles such as Dukes and so on," Ignatius said. "I've learned a couple of things about the society of elves, humans, and other species. And I am fairly sure that if there's Dukes, there's a King somewhere, right?"
"Yes, there is," I said. "I saw him, or well, I heard him. When he appeared I just closed my eyes and felt like everything was becoming dark. But I heard his terrifying voice. An overwhelmingly powerful entity... Perhaps stronger than the Gods themselves."
"W-Wait, really? How are you even so sure?" asked Beelzebub.
"Sylphy... J-just what did you see?" wondered Furoh.
"Nothing but the silhouette of a titan of incommensurable size and power..." I explained. "His presence alone reduced me to a mere ant, there was... nothing I could do."
"A-Ah... But it was just a vision!" said Furoh. "R-Right guys?"
"Yeah!" Alice nodded. "Please don't feel disheartened about that, Sylphy. Everything's okay."
"Yeah it was supposed to be a vision, I saw Allocer there but... the thing, it was self-aware, it was self-aware within a vision of Allocer's own memories," I explained. "It was... it knew I was there, it talked to me and everything!"
"Really?!" asked Yggdra. "T-That's terrible!"
"He said my soul was big... and tasty, and that he would eat me," I muttered, feeling even worse than before. "Ugh... I never thought I feel so freaking terrified like back then. I felt so pathetically weak. Completely to his whim."
"That's strange..." Alice said. "Does it mean this entity is beyond just reality then? If he's capable to see through a mind that is seeing a vision of his world, it most probably means he's... slightly omniscient. But it might be only limited to their own Realm or World, or whatever Hell is."
"T-That makes it even worse!" I cried. "Hahh... okay, enough of this! I don't want to be sobbing all day. And I'm getting hungry. I got a forbidden Demonic Skill so let's check what
it's all about!"
