Rex, Iris, Liz, Violet, Bella, Amber, and Margaret made their way to the portal. Without missing a beat, Rex found a spot to relax at. When people recognized that he was the Demon King. They instantly bowed and moved out of the way.
"He always amazes us in the strangest ways." Iris inwardly laughed.
She made sure to keep a straight face. Someone else who had the same thought running through her mind saw the subtle changes. That person was Liz.
Even though the two had always been at ends with each other. They also understood each other in the weirdest of ways. The major way was when thinking about Rex.
"SIR!" A butler yelled.
Rex looked back. He had forgotten about his butler because of how special his Soul Mate had made him feel. Since the butler was unprepared to leave. Rex's departure was a shock to the butler.
Thanks to Apollo, who rode an Earth Dragon and using his fiery Qi. The trip went a lot smoother and faster.
The butler hopped off with his backpack carrying everything that Zeus, Hades, and Apollo had gathered for the journey through the Mortal Realms.
"Sir, we are ready." The butler said, tapping his backpack.
"Well, it is not that I completely forgotten about you. I wanted you to have more time packing each item carefully and making sure we had everything we would need." Rex slipped a little on his words.
The butler narrowed his eyes. He did not think that his Master would give such a long answer for simplying forgetting about himself. The butler could not move past this.
"Well, hopefully you will not completely forget what all we have gotten for you either." The butler slid the response to Rex.
"We shall see." A dark glimpse made the butler tremble in fear.
He forgot who he was truly dealing with. He had dealt with powerhouses for nearly his entire lifetime. He got reminded how truly terrifying his new Master was.
"Better keep on good behavior." The butler replied.
Rex and the group moved to the front of the line. They were destined to go to the Second Realm.
That is where Rex was before his ascension led him to the Demon Realm. While he moved forward, a sense of dread appeared out of nowhere.
To Rex, this dread was something that he should not have felt. He had truly become the top of the food chain for demons expect for the Demon God. Every other demon bowed and would listen to Rex. The Demon God also would listen to Rex closer now than before.
Once the sense of dread passed, everyone in the party arrived in the Third Realm. The Third Realm was completely different from what Rex remembered. He did not know if his involvement in the past had anything to do with it or not. He kept moving forward with the party.
It was not until a clearing came through that Rex saw what he thought was the Sixth Realm at cliffs.
"Did we arrive at the Sixth Realm or Third Realm?" Rex's voice slightly trembled.
That was to be expected since this was something new to him. Even the Heavenly Realm could not scare him this much because he knew it was over his head. Something he knew was not right. He needed to figure out what it was.
[Congratulations, Host has arrived in the Third Realm. The Host has also been given a Help Quest automatically.]
[ Main Quest Help takedown the Apex Predator]
[This Quest is essential for your ascension to the Fourth Realm. All other combatants have either failed or do not desire to fight the Apex Predator.]
[Secondary Quest Find the reason why some many Apex creatures have been born recently.]
[Additional Quest Restore towns to ensure the Beastman Race, Human Race, and Angelic Race can live peacefully and together.]
[Additional Quest Make a spot your own. Find an area to claim for yourself. It might be taken away from you, but this will help during your travels into the Heavenly Realm.]
[Final Additional Quest Make love to one of the women who entered the Third Realm with you.]
[Note, the Secondary Quest and all Additional Quests do not have to be achieved. These Quests are for your experience and nothing more.]
Rex twitched for a moment. He was unsure why one of his Additional Quests were to have sex with one of the girls with him. Getting those thoughts out of his mind.
Rex felt that this was not the Third Realm. Seeing the notification that this indeed was the Third Realm. He was glad to have a little knowledge of the hierarchy here.
At the top were the Apex Carnivore, Apex Herbivore, Apex Omnivore, Apex Flyer, and Apex Swimmer.
These were supposed to be the only Apex creatures around. The Realm could hold two wild card Apex creatures. Once, eight Apex creatures were around.
The entire Realm would try and kill off most of the Apex creatures. Thankfully, Rex knew about this. He did not know anything else.
"We need to hurry to," Rex started to say before a large creature came from the cliffside.
The creature before them was a drake. The drake did have wings. It seemed like they had been damaged in a fight.
The drake lunged into the area where Rex and his group had arrived in. His sheer mass made a clearer view of what was behind them.
Rex saw the place where his former assassination teacher had died. That brought back some really good memories for Rex. He wanted to just sit there and stare at the place.
Before Rex could even think of sitting down, a loud sounding boom came from under them.
Red displeased with his trip to memory town interrupted. He looked over into the unknown, and seeing nothing, he jumped feet first and make sure he could fight whatever was down there. Everyone else decided to wait and see what would happen to Rex.
