3rd POV*
"Oh no! No! No! This is bad! Genib never once saw Ascella being in this way! This is really bad! Even the lesser spirits are in panick because of his anger!" Genib shouted looking at Ascella and Damaes who are exchanging blows without caring about their surroundings. "Amazing.." Tania said in awe as she was stunned by the sudden situation. This was probably the most destructive scene she has ever saw in her life, though her sense of beauty seemed to be broken because she thought of the literal picture of hell as a beautiful portrait. "What are you saying! This is not the time to be in awe about something like that!" Genib screamed as she pulled Tania out of there.
"Oh.. right, Ascella gave us a task to do.. we need to finish them.." Tania remembered Ascella's words as a small smile emerged from her face. "That's right! Genib and Tania need to save those merchants that Ascella contracted with. He promised to protect them so we must save them at all cost!" Genib shouted enthusiastically. Both of them ran towards some direction before ultimately stopping. "Where is the direction of the store again?" Genib asked with Tania only shaking her head. The place was already destroyed so they can't navigate their surroundings that well. They decided to just go to a random direction as they believed that they will eventually find it.
They were running when a scream was suddenly heard stopping both of them from their tracks. ""Spirit!!?" Both of them turned to the voices and saw beautiful girls running along with a average looking man in the middle of them. "Dark elves.. run Tania! They are bad news!" Genib without hesitation ran on her own as she doesn't want to get close on the two. Tania was confused by her reaction but just did what she was told. She ran. "W-Wait! We won't do anything! This is a emergency situation so we have no time for those!" Lina and Luna shouted trying to catch up to Genib but she just ignored them. She can't waste time with Dark Elves when any second now Julius might be decapitated by the insane slum peoples.
"Wait.. they are Ascella's acquaintance.." Tania said making Genib stop from her run. "Ascella? Who is that? Do you know anyone of that name Luna?" Lina asked her sister since she felt that the name was familiar to her. "Sigh, have you forgotten about the weird human we saw yesterday? I remembered his name was Ascella and this girl was with him too" Luna said while pointing at Tania. "Oh right! His name was Ascella! Then are you by any chance friends with Ascella?" Lina asked with a bright face showing how composed she was during a situation like this. "Yes.. are you not worried about the commotion..?" She asked clearly noticing the calm of the two sisters.
"Haven't we mentioned it yesterday? We are strong! Not as strong as the lady spirit here but strong enough to destroy this town!" Lina proudly announced with her chest puffed. "H-Hey..! Don't leave me behind!" Jorge, the human male that they are traveling with shouted as both sisters looked at each other. "Oh right he is still here" Luna commented placing an arrow on Jorge's fragile heart. "Anyway.. the lady spirit over there... Is so cute!! Ahh!! I want to hug her! Or maybe let her spoil me!" Lina suddenly began breaking her character, "No Lina! Spirits are meant to be worshipped not play with! T-Though I wouldn't mind it either.." Luna also said with blush on her face that only made Genib pale.
"As expected.. Genib shouldn't have stopped there!" She said in regrets when she knew that she wouldn't be able to escape these two anymores. "We need help.. do you know.. Castor company?" Tania asked while describing the place. "Oh! That thing that sells and buys exotic things right? We have been there before!" Lina said with beemingly smile on her face. "Can we ask.. for directions? We are.. trying to find it" Tania requested while bowing her head at the two. She really wanted to complete Ascella's orders, that is why she even went as far as to do it. "Don't bow Tania! Let me handle this!" Genib stopped Tania from bowing any further as she went infront of the twin dark elves.
"Hey, help Genib and Tania reach their designated place" she said with ordering tone making Tania look at her with dumbfounded gaze. She wa trying all she had to stay polite before and here Genib destroying her logics without even knowing it. Tania thought that a problem would occur between the three but what she didn't expect was the dark elves doing a huge bow with big grin on their faces. "Yes! It would be our honor to help Lady Spirit!" They shouted with all their might making Genib cringe at this. "Genib.. what happened?" Tania asked while pointing at the two. "Uhh, if the Elves love and communicate with spirits then the Dark Elves are fanatics to them. They would do whatever the spirit asks them to, and they will not even complain about it" Genib explain with a sigh.
"Ah! Now is not the time! We need to hurry or else that weird guy will die!" Genib suddenly remembered their goal as she looked at Lina and Luna who nodded their heads. ""This way Lady Spirit!"" They both shouted enthusiastically. "By the way.. do you know what is currently happening? We were just strolling when everything suddenly turned into a mess" Jorge who was ignored just now asked as he thought everything that is happening is too weird. "Ah.. Ascella is... fighting a demon general..." Tania explained with her usual slow way of talking. "What!? He is that strong!? I thought he was just unusually strong but I never expected him to be able to battle against a general from the other side!" Luna exclaimed.
"Other.. side?" Tania tilted her head in confusion as she never heard of that word before, though it was bringing some intense emotions inside of her. "How do you not know about that? You are a magical creature are you not? Normally beings like us should know about that dangerous place" Luna said while raising her eyebrow. "She just learned about her magical origins! Don't talk to her like that!" Genib came to the rescue and reprimanded the dark elves who just looked away in shame. "Well, let' see... The other side is exactly what it says. It is the parallel copy of this world made by the Creation God to balance the system. He noticed that Farside is being overwhelmed by many celestial beings so he divided them in half and place the other celestial beings on the other side" Luna explained patiently to Tania who is listening.
"Celestial beings.. I see those being are probably demons.. right?" Tania understood what Luna explained. "Yes, and also dragons also live there. Though from what I heard, their numbers are slowly reducing so I don't know if there are still some who are alive. Well, dragons only die to boredom since no beings in the world could ever hope to defeat them, even the other Celestial Beings could only put a scratch on their sturdy scales" Lina added as she thought it would be bad if they don't know anything about that. "I see.. thank you.." Tania gave her gratitude to them who was surprised and just smiled. They stopped talking and just continue to the Castor Company where Nicole and Julius are panicking to the max.

Dameas's POV*
Ugh! This is impossible! How such thing exist?! I can see what this thing is doing, even me who can't see mana understood that this man is casually ordering them to do everything he wanted! Fuuh, this is scary.. even though I already pushed the pressure that this world is giving me, I still can't do anything to him! The only thing I could right now is to run! Run until I find a blindspot on him and take it. I wanted to fight him face to face but this bastard doesn't get it! Who would throw hundreds of lightning into his enemy when he is requesting a fair duel?! Oh shit! Haah, that one almost got me!
When I returned to this world, I clearly felt my strength being sealed just like what the Demon King said. We demons are being restricted in this place, we could not use 70% of our real power when we stepped into the land of this world. That is why I thought that I could handle this human, he was playing with me when I was at my 30%, pushing away the pressure made me conceited and thought I could deal with him easily. Ah, I really can't understand this human.. if he was a mage, why did he tried fighting me in physical fight earlier? Now is not the time to be thinking about such things! Oh! I barely dodged another one, this guy is destroying this land! Is he not aware of that?! Not that I could say anything as I prefered destruction more.
Gathering the force on my body to my feet, I sprinted and arrived at the man's side. My hand was already forming a fist as I plunged it in his side.. I waited for my fist to hit but the only thing that I felt was hitting a divine stone! I looked at the place where my fist landed only to see a transparent wall that looks fragile but was apparently very sturdy! I couldn't even make a dent on it when my strength is clearly on another level now! Destroying mountains are piece of cake for this current me but this small wall is handling my strength easily! The hairs on my back suddenly stood up as I immediately escaped the place. Not even a second when something emerged from it that gave me some memories about those big lizards that I don't really want to remember.
A huge black tornado emerged from the ground destroying everything that hits it way. Even a small stone was grinded to dust when the tornado hit it. This show just how terrifying this thing is, it might even be more scary than the lightnings from before. I creased my eyebrow at the horrific scene, I really wanted to escape this place and return to the other side but with eyes like those staring at me running away is impossible. I tried using Miasma to create an armor for my body, using Miasma in such rough way will surely back bite later but I have no time to consider such things when my life is on the line here. I need to atleast make a faint so that I could make a portal to return to that world.
I punched the ground really hard creating an earthquake that shook the ground for miles. The dust surrounded the area making it hard for anyone to see anything in there, I used this chance to put my finger under the earth and table flipping a whole chunk of soil towards the human. Now! With his vision obscured, I will use this chance to make the portal! I thought as I used the Miasma to draw something on the ground, the drawings lit up before forming into a portal. I didn't hesitate to enter the portal as my the scene infront of me changed. The once blue sky was now dyed yellow, the ground was black and destruction could be seen laying on it. Though it was all irrelevant for me right now as the special thing is I escaped that monster.
I gave a huge sigh of relief while my body relaxed its tension. The helplessness I felt when fighting that monster was the same I would feel when facing the Demon King. That human is a menace, I need to inform his majesty about him! I was about to walk towards the direction of the demon kingdom when cold air appeared on my back. My body instinctively shook as I turned around slowly. "...You've gotta be kidding me!" I screamed when I saw a huge tornado chasing towards me. It was too fast that I couldn't even react to it, only death is waiting for me. "That tornado will cause havoc for 3 days straight and no one shall be able to stop it. That I announce. This is the punishment for killing those two innocent rabbits!" That was what I last heard before my body was ripped to shreds by the tornado.. Ahh.. I'm foolish, just like what he mentioned earlier.. I really am foolish...
