CHAPTER - 36 - THE MAGICAL FOG OF IRA JEZA - PART : ②

As everyone was ready to leave the land of Tartarmus and begin their chaos full journey, Vanzel said,

"Well then... Lets slay some chaos gods, shall we?"

Deces was focusing her dark force on creating a dimensional portal to the land of Jeza. It was only half built, but it was already emitting a large amount of dark energy. It looked like a dark mirror, placed in the sky. It was a mixture of Azure and dark black colour. After waiting for a few minutes, the portal was build completely. Since it was releasing enormous amount of dark energy, Alcesto had a question in his mind. He asked Vanzel,

"Hey Vanzel! I wanted to ask somethin' from ya'."

"I wonder what is it."

Said Vanzel.

"Uh... Its just that I wanted to know what's this dark energy being released by this dimensional portal?"

Asked Alcesto.

"I see. This dimensional portal is connected to the land of Jeza. It is created in a blind spot of the land, but, that spot is most likely to be the nearest one to the core of the land, in other words known as the castle of the land."

Said Vanzel.

"Oh! Now I understand!"

Said Alcesto.

After their little chat, they headed to fight one of the many gods of chaos, the goddess Ira Jeza, or Eris. Before entering the realm of chaos, Vanzel wanted to lecture his party. He said,

"From now on, we will be entering the realm of chaos. We won't be able to fight other hellish gods if we don't slay Eris. From our knowledge, it doesn't looks like that she has any kind of army. We are eight and she is alone. So let's win this fight and slay other hellish gods!"

"YES!"

Everyone shouted in unison. They were afraid, but excited. They were sad, but angered. They were having an outburst of emotions. Someone was fighting for pride, someone for his family. Someone was fighting for thrill, while someone was fighting for love. During this whole time, they didn't knew that they were being watched.

Far away from human land, in a different dimension, on an unknown land, Navertozwein was watching them. The land was dried out. There was no sign of a living being there, except one. On that disaster struck land, there stood a stone castle, which was painted by bloodshed. There were no corpse, only blood, or the corpse were hidden inside that blood river? Nobody knows, except one person, and he was sitting inside the castle, lurking in the darkness.

He covered his face with his monstrous looking land. He was naked. He had a buffed and muscular body. It was too dark to see anything. He chuckled a little, but, slowly, that chuckle turned into a murderous laugh.

"Hum hum hum hum!... Khwahahahahaha! Khwagagagagagagah!"

He stopped laughing and took a deep breath. After relaxing, he said to himself,

"These stupid humans... They never know their limit... That's the part which I hate about them! I was watching them this whole time with my demonic eye... And they.... Hmph! Pathetic! Well, looks like I won't even be lifting a finger, since they are falling into their hunter's mouth anyways. Do these idiots really think that they can slay all the khaos gods and all the hellish gods? Keep on dreaming! Khwagagagagaha!"

MEANWHILE

Alcesto and his party entered the realm of Khaos gods. The land was of dark brown colour. It didn't looked much otherworldly, instead it looked more Earth like. As they walked a few steps, suddenly, a huge tower appeared in front of them. Before that, there was nothing visible on this land, except fog. The whole land was covered with a blanket of fog.

The tower was 60 metres, or about 197 feet high. The tower was the same colour as the land. Unlike other castles which Alcesto and his party have encountered, it was not creepy looking, instead, it looked beautiful. The tower was built of circular architecture. The sleek and round design of the tower made it look very diligent. The colour texture added an unknown attractiveness towards the tower.

Alcesto was amazed. He asked from Vanzel,

"Vanzel! Should we head inside?"

"No. This could also be a trap."

Vanzel replied.

Jae-Hyuk was also in the middle of their conversation and asked,

"Now, wh-what should we do?"

Schwartz heard him and said,

"Hmm... I think we should inspect this tower first. What do you think, Vanzel?"

Vanzel was taking a look at the tower and didn't clearly heard what Schwartz said. Since Deces was the one standing nearest to Vanzel, she told him,

"Mister Vanzel, mister Schwartz is calling for you."

Vanzel turned and said to Deces,

"Uh...Okay."

He walked towards Schwartz and asked him,

"What's the matter?"

Schwartz replied to him,

"We were just wondering what to do now."

"Hmm... We will be forming pairs."

Said Vanzel.

Zhao heard what Vanzel said and asked him blushingly, with the thought of being alone with Schwartz,

"Pa-pairs?!"

"Yes. Pairs."

Kyung-Mi rushed towards them and asked,

"Hey-hey! Did anyone said pairs? Please can you keep me and Alcesto in the same pair!"

"It's already decided. I will be inspecting the east of the land. Deces will be inspecting the north of the land. Schwartz and Zhao will be inspecting the south of the land. Jae-Hyuk and Kyung-Soon will inspect the west of the land and lastly, Alcesto and Kyung-Mi will go and inspect the tower."

Ordered Vanzel.

Zhao was being embarrassed a little, since this would be her first time being along with Schwartz, since most of the times, Alcesto would be there to ruin Schwartz's mood.

Kyung-Mi was controlling her excitement. She was a bold woman in terms of love. She had already expressed her love towards Alcesto and he had also accepted her feelings with gratitude. But, there was one problem with this plan. Alcesto asked Vanzel,

"Hey...Va-Vanzel... Are you really telling us to go alone to inspect that tower?!"

"Yes. That's precisely correct."

Answered Vanzel.

"Wha-what!"

Said Alcesto, surprisingly.

"Don't worry. I have already taken a look at the tower from outside. There was no trace of dark force inside the tower. There may be some demons but I guess you both would be able to deal with them, right?"

"Ye-yeah. That's a relief."

Alcesto said, while taking a breath of relief.

Vanzel ordered his party,

"Well, then... Dismiss!"
