The Demon Forest of Liffos

The Demon Forest, is a forest home for monstrous creatures and demonic beings. It is one of the most dangerous place to be found in the surface of the world. In the continent of Rasia, there are 6 Demon Forest exist in different region.

The Aroah Demon Forest located at the northern region of the continent, the Deankai Demon Forest located at the southern region of the continent, Lika Demon Forest located at the nothern west region of the continent, Hedaqui Demon Forest located at the central region of the continent, Geihm Demon Forest located at the southern east region of the continent, and lastly, the Liffos Demon Forest located at the eastern region of the continent.

The Liffos Demon Forest, located at the Kingdom of Liffos and Vesperum nearby, is a forest where countless of monsters lives. At the center of this forest, there's one demonic creature who governs and rule the entire forest, it possess intelligence just like human does. For the past years, no one has ever gone at the center. There, May, Lux, and Elm are about venture there in order to obtain the magic stone known as the "Spirit Stone".

Before going there, Lux and Elm made May to be very strong as it is right now, they trained together five days straight sharpening May's senses and her swordsmanship.

Right now, May emits such powerful strength aura. This aura can never be concealed unless she had magic to cover it. However, right now, May is now able to conceal her physical strength aura when Lux added another enchantment to her Crimson Stone, the Concealment of Aura.

Aside from that, Elm completely mastered his newly upgraded version of his Three Word Spell. It is now a Four Word Spell, it is much more powerful that before.

In casting a Three Word Spell…

The first word is called the Initial Spell, the second word is called Formation Spell, and the last word is called Releasing Spell or Action Spell.

For the Four Word Spell…

The first word is called Initial Spell, the second and third can be reversed, they are Formation Spell and Enhancement Spell, and the last word is Releasing Spell or Action Spell.

Elm's Four Word Spell goes with "FIRE-PRESSURED-HEAT-BLAST", he repeated this spell many times every six hours until the time when he can use it again in less than two hours later.

For Lux' situation, there isn't much of a new to him, but he was focused on training May to get stronger, he also becomes stronger during ther mock battle with May. Lux' thinks that May is always full of surprises because she is fast to adapt, she becomes very strong in just five days of training. It's as if May is now qualified to be a real warrior.

With May's strength right now, she is now able to lift the heavy sword with ease without using the Crimson Stone enchantment.

"Ha!" May swings a sword.

Kaching!!! A sound of colliding sword.

"Great Job May! You're really have gotten strong in just 5 days!" Elm praises.

"Thank you!" May thanks.

"Well, it's time for us to go…" Lux said.

"Yeah… the Demon Forest." May said.

They first walked through between the two big mountains, the amount of time getting to the Demon Forest would be less than four hours. They went carrying with their foods while May uses her magic bag to store everything and preserve her food.

May's sword is right on her back hanging just in case if there will be monsters suddenly appearing around them. As for Elm and Lux, they were on guard because they sensed monsters lurking around behind the trees or somewhere. They were on such big risk while May who's unable to detect magic is somehow so carefree even though she had that sword on her back.

Growl!

"What was that?!" Lux surprised, he immediately grab his sword and prepare his magic.

"Ummm… that was my…" May speaks.

"Ughh… I forgot, we haven't eat our lunch yet."

"… Guess, we'll have to eat first…" Elm suggests.

"Yeah… Let's eat I'm so hungry.

Raw pork, rabbit, and beef are the foods that May carries in her magic bag. She took all out of it as a surprise to her comrade.

"I didn't know you have those delicious food." Elm said.

"Well yeah, haha… I had to save it for my journey, but you helped me to get stronger so I'll have you some. I bought them back from that Kingdom." May said.

"I see… so I believe you bought these fresh meats from that famous market from the Kingdom."

From that moment, they prepared a fire to cook the raw meats that May's took out. After that, the foods are now cooked.

*sounds of chewing food*

*sounds of swallowing food*

They started a conversation in the middle of their lunch regarding Demon Forest.

"I wonder, what is it like if we reach that forest?" May was curious.

"Hmm? Well, it's the most dangerous place in the world's surface you know, and I doubt that you'll be able obtain that spirit stone." Lux said.

"How so?" May is asking.

"I guess I'll have to explain things to you about that forest."

And so, Lux started to tell the story…

"From the moment the world was created by the divine being, Demon Forests were already there in a different locality in the world. More than thousands of demon forests exist as of right now. Each forest has one ruler, the ruler is a demonic being, they are always located at the center of the forest were anyone who gets near at that center, will also turn into a demon. This demon who rules the demon forest surpasses any magicians as of right now and no one will ever be able to defeat this demon."

"So tell me, have you ever heard of a Gray Eyes Mages?" Lux asked.

"Yes! I've read their history in the book!"

"You might have already know this, that in the past, the number of demon forest decreased and has turned into ordinary forest as of this era. This is because the Gray Eyes Mages were very overpowered which is more than enough to defeat and kill the demonic being. Despite only few numbers of demon forest rulers were defeated, these mages who defeated those demon forest rulers were a real legend and a superhero. Today, us humans, were hoping that when that Gray Eyes Mage emerges again, he or she will defeat a mass number of demon forest rulers. You should know that Demons were meant to be erased from existence, and the fact that they should not be exist in the first place."

"Gray Eyes Mage… They were that awesome?" May said as she was amazed about Gray Eyes Mage's reputation.

"Yeah… Imagine if you became one, you'll have my support as your loyal companion!" Elm said.

"Stop it Elm… *sigh*" Lux halts Elm.

"Ahhh… It was delicious! Thanks for the food May!" Elm thanks.

"Ah… It's nothing, it's only a thanks for training me." May said.

"I see… Then, I think we should get going…" Lux suggests.

"Oh… and one more thing May, the name of this Demon Forest we were about to go forth, is the Demon Forest of Liffos." Lux tells the name of Demon Forest.

"Liffos?" May asked.

"Yup… That's the name given to the forest since it's located at the Kingdom of Liffos nearby." Elm said.

In a few hours from now, May, Lux, and Elm are now about to venture out in the Demon Forest of Liffos.
