Maria had something in store for Jay as well. All of them headed in a general direction west of the village where there was a cave which was carved into the mountain with the stones in the walls had writing in pictographs. There were many images of a round structure like an amphitheater or a coliseum where there were people standing round and praying. With the one hand forward and it seemed like seething like a string was tied. The string was red in colour and it went like something like a pool or bathtub.

McElroy was barred from entering. Only Jay and Maria headed inside. As the went deeper and deeper the torches lit themselves and as they passed they dimmed and went off in their own

There was a chilling atmosphere. As cold wind passed through the cave. Soon they encountered a large door. Which Maria asked Jay to open. Jay with all his might pushed the door open. And entered the room.

The room was dark and dank. In which Jay's senses were heightened to the point where he could predict his surroundings.

The surrounding lit with a green flames. As the surrounding showed in the picture replicated itself on the same way. There was a depression in the middle of the room with tracing of depressions and interconnected veins that passed through the cave and connected to the hole in the ground. Which was lined with stone w

To prevent loss of the material to be sorted. The flames widened and more flames appeared in the surroundings.

Where the villagers saw Jay and began chanting in their language.

Jay :

What is this.

Maria :

It's their tradition, their calling.

The voices increased and they were in sync and their voice dreadful as well as harmonious. They all chanted the same lines but Jay was hearing something else instead.

Maria :

You might want to steel yourself for this part.

All the villagers cut their veins in their arms and legs and begun bleeding from every part of their body. Their blood was being collected through the vein and was being pooled in the middle of the room. In the hole. The blood pooled slowly.

There were almost 370 villagers which included men women and children who cut themselves with sharp knives.

And were under the influence of drugs ti not feel pain from rhe knives

Jay :

Why are these men cutting themselves.

Jay yelled at everyone to stop. He used metal magic and snatched away their knives. Such that they couldn't cut themselves. But they still didn't stop they used their teeth to rip their skin a part and made their blood pour through and collect in the center.

Jay : surprised and rage and resent.

Maria what is this?

Maria :

...

Maria didn't utter even a single word her eyes were fixated on the blood that was pooling in the center and quickly filling up.

After a while all the villagers were dead and their body flooding the hole.

Maria :

Maria started chanting as the blood which was pooled started to boil over and evaporate. From the blood another double edged sword started floating. The sword had veins all over except the blade. The handle had an yellowed eye in the hilt. It was a standard double edged weapon. The hilt was black as well as the tang of the blade

Maria :

This is the solution to your problem.

Jay :

What is this sorcery.

Maria :

This blade is the only thing that can defeat Ikaros. Once you stab this sword in him. He will be defeated.

Jay :

You're just giving it to me.

Jay held the sword and slowly the veins started getting in Jay. Terrified Jay threw the sword in his inventory as he quickly tapped the phone's inventory option and threw the sword in his inventory and closed the phone .

Jay watched his arm get back to normal

Maria :

Consider this a favor. For everyone you're allied with has lost.

Jay :

What do you mean.

Maria :

We should talk outside.

Maria and Jay exited the blood filled cave. And once again met up with McElroy as McElroy notices the distraught on his face.

Maria :

When you were gone, even Lumina was defeated soon after and she was no match for Ikaros. And then the hidden forces of demons poured through another army of thirty thousand demons. And soon they will overwhelm whatever forces of human remain on the mainland.

Maria :

Will you even be able to reach Ikaros even if you now have a means to defeat him.

What then Jay heard was a witch's laughter as she laughed from all her heart all the hideousness that hid within her poured out and was perceived by Jay. All this time it was her grace and the light within her heart that kept them alive.

While the scheming darkness. Just things progress as they are.

Maria :

So what are you going to do now Jay Garrick. Cry to the master of abyss. Or rally another army.

McElroy :

I knew this witch couldn't be trusted.

Jay kept calmed as the witch laughed at Mcelroy's despair..

But Jay wasn't ready to despair yet.

Jay :

Can you teleport us.

Maria :

Sure do you want to go back? Right to your deaths. I can arrange that.

Maria happily smiling at both of them.

Jay :

Actually I have a different destination in my mind.

Maria was not expecting the statement, her initial thought was that they were running away. But McElroy will not let it happen.

Maria :

Where?

She asked a very simple question without the demand of an explanations

Jay :

I thought you must have guessed it till now.

Jay wasn't lying Maria was thinking about their destination. But many of her destination that she came up with were a sign to running away.

Jay :

The place I want to go is Raizon.

McElroy :

Raizon?

Maria :

Raizon? Why?

Jay :

Just wait and see.

Maria :

I hope you'll show me something interesting.

With that words Jay and McElroy who were standing in the middle of a massacred village suddenly found themselves in the middle of streets of Raizon without any notice of any kind. They were just there.

Immediately within seconds they were surrounded by guards equipped with laser guns, plasma shields, plasma physical weapons, tesla like weapons.

Guard :

Identifiy yourself.

And they were captured and thrown into the cell when they tried to pass themselves off as the previous kings of Raizon.
