Chereads / Arcane Rebirth as the DEVIL / Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Field of Reeds

Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Field of Reeds

Rick Venaton gazed upon the city at the horizon, where the sun glimmered it's red welcoming rays upon the multiple pyramids and large civilized huts.

This was the Feild of Reeds, according to the books he read, this was the realm of eternal paradise, protected from evil spirits. The land where Anubis resided in.

His reason for being here was the first step to accomplishing his mission.

After a long training and studying in the library for about two decades or so, he left and appeared here a few moments ago. At the outskirts of the Field of Reeds.

The outskirt was unexpectedly crowded and the city was filled with noises of celebration.

The swirls in the atmosphere was also different as it changed colour momentarily from purple to red and back to blue.

Guessing this was what Anubis called paradise.

"A mere light show." This didn't faze Rick at all as he knew stories of facts about Anubis enslaving the people in the city to build statues and temples to worship his name.

Though they called it paradise, this was nothing but absolute hell.

"Well delusions are apart of the tricks of heaven and hell," Rick said mixing instantly with the crowd.

SLAM!

While in the crowd, Rick's hand found the wrist of another buried into the pocket of his coat.

The person was clearly trying to steal from him.

He pulled out the hand and gazed into the look of the culprit. A beautiful female wearing a black hooded jacket and blue leathers pants, this was different from the people here as they took on the culture of Egyptian wear....

Just like him she wasn't from anywhere around here.

"You have a nice hand, maybe next time I will keep it with me permanently!" Rick's eyes bulged to show the intensity if his words.

Instead of the lady getting scared, she only smiled towards him, "that's good, now we know you have senses and aren't entirely useless, truly you are a devil."

'So she did this to check if I was truly a Devil when I barely know the part.'

Rick let's go of her wrist turning and walking deeper into the crowd. "Let's hope we don't meet again....."

Something about you feels recognizable.

The lady ran her hands through her dark hair getting a shiver in her breath. "A devil roaming this paradise would mean nothing but trouble...."

"However...." She licked her lips notoriously savoring the passing seconds.

"Trouble is all we are going to cause today."

Rick Venaton took a slow stroll through the city. 'So this is the realm between heaven and hell. I never expected something like this.'

[I bet you feel like wiping it all out]

[Don't you]

'Yes, but I can't do that now, can I?' Rick let out a sly smirk recalling the knowledge from the library.

[Yes, not until you have found and rescued me]

The voice in his head had informed him about her predicament here. Trapped somewhere in the great pyramid.

She had explained of how great she was and how she invoked the wrath of the gods. A war between her and them, obviously she was overpowered as she had no other devil to support her.

That was how she made the name for herself the Jade of hell.

That's why I have to save her, because of her power and how she can help me destroy the world.

"Hahahaha! Jet ready Heaven my journey to wipe you out has began!"
