CHAPTER 38 DEMON

Garen was shocked by the second notification. He didn't understand why he suddenly received quest point and some attributes increased while his intelligence decreased. He didn't feel like he had become more stupid, but he felt like his memory isn't as good as before. There is more to know about the system he thought.

Garen was sure how he should feel as he looked at his status. His int which had always been his highest, is now reduced to being his second lowest. His physical attributes have taken at large leap instead and so is his spirit. As least, there is no string attached to the questpoint or so he thought.

Garen focused on his int as he increased it more and soon it was now in 9.5 though he didn't feel that feeling of his brain decaying anymore. Only a slight headache. He guessed because his int was around that before, it was easy to get it back up.

As he thought of this, he suddenly realised that, he didn't feel any discomfort even though three of his attributes were suddenly increased by one point. One more mystery of the system to uncover the boy thought. It is almost the seventh hour of the sun. It is still afternoon, but there was nothing for him to do. Lunch is still an hour away.

Getting up reluctantly from the soft sofa, garen walked out from his room and walked towards the garden at the back of the mansion. He has nothing to do, and he might as well waste time there.

As garen walked through the artistic scene, he heard a booming sound from his left, and walked the curiously.

At an open area at the back of the manor, there was a small stage, with pillars surrounding the area. Two men stood opposite each other, as dust and sand fall to the ground.

At the left stood a young man of about 23. A locke of red hair, and brown eye. The man's skin was slighty pale. He must be a foreigner, garen thought. He hadn't seen much people with red hair. The young man is clothed in a comfortable looking red shirt and a matching pant. He his barefooted, and a gauntlet let let out a milky white aura. Garen could feel an immense soul energy from it. It felt like a raging flame and it surge high to the sky.

At the left stands another man. A black hair and black eye, a true born Roland man. In contrast to the earlier man, this also young man wore a blue robe, and a shiny long staff was held over his head. The language of enril flow ceaselessly from the man's mouth, and a strange aura pervade the area.

The red haired man, stood silently without taking a single action. He seem to consider the act of the other man as irrelevant, and not a threat. Even though there is a big chance to takeout his opponent in one strike.

The black haired man finally completed his chants, and a strange wormhole suddenly appeared in the air. Strange roars and terrifying cries rang out from the wormhole. Only fire and darkness was visible in the hole.

Suddenly, a creatures twisted arm suddenly popped out from the hole. The creature used both hands to hmspread the wormhole, and made it big enough to pass through.

A creature with four long horns crawled out from the wormhole. The creature's skin is frighteninly red, and so is its eyes. A mouth filled with frightening teeth and it stood 10feet tall.

Had Garen not seen the void creatures, he might have been amazed at this creature, and believe it was something great and all, but compared to void creatures, it was nothing bit a baby. Still an abyss creature isn't to be belittled.

Summoners are another part of sorcery, some part are similar to necromancy, but most is very different. The similar part is in controlling other creatures to do their bidding. But their different in a way that a necromancer has to acquire the soul and reanimate a being, while a summoner summons from other part of the world or even plane and then inscribe soul mark on the summoned creature.

The abyss is also similar to the netherworld but different. The Netherworld is a part of the normal world, but later separated from the normal world by some unknown means, then transformed into a home of dead souls and being.

As for the abyss it is a different plane. An entirely different world, and only through the Wormgate or hole, could creatures go between both side. Though most wouldn't dare go, since the abyss is a cruel world. Thousands and hundreds of thousands of beings die there every day.

Now back to the stage. The abyss creature struggled a bit, but was finally put under control by the summoner. The abyss creature walked forward, and stood right in front of the summoner.

The red haired man still stood unflusterd. "A greater demon huh? But do you think this is enough to take me out? If you think so, THINK AGAIN!" The red haired man raised his gauntlet, and a large concentrated milky white aura shot at the demon.

The demon let out a roar, and slammed into the attack. The demon let out an enraged roar, as it's leg buckled, and it's leg dug deeper into the sand.

The black haired Roland man didn't seem to afraid of his demon being taken out. "A demon's soul is made up of many chattered soul. A soul attack wouldn't deal much of a damage to it. It is the perfect counter for a pure sorcerer like you."

True to it's master's word, the demon shrugged of the attack and rushed mightily at the other sorcerer.
