Chapter 39 - The First Encounter

[A/N: Hey guys everything is solved, and I'm back to start updating]

"Master now that you meet with the boy what is your next plan?" Jinwoo asked 

"For now I need to start testing out a spell. It's a working theory but it should work," Virgil replied

{What Kind of spell?} Sabastian asked

"Simple it's a long-distance attack with my flames. If I condense a large amount into a small point, then apply a large amount within it should theoretically explode,"

"Hmmm it seems simple but how do you plan to contain the flames? do you have an object that will hold the flames and then absorb mana so you won't have to?" Jinwoo asked

"That's what I have to work on. I need a way for it to be automated but first I need to test it,"

{For automation I would recommend a mana core and a dead core. Dead cores absorb the mana within them and they can also be used for holding spells}

"A dead core. That seems good but how will I keep it from exploding before I want it to?" Virgil asked

{With my current knowledge low-level time magic will allow you to delay it}

"Damn it seems like this will take longer than I want," Virgil sighed 

"Mr.Domini we have arrived," the driver spoke

"I see thank you," Virgil said getting out of the limo

Standing on the rune circle from before Virgil spoke the needed words and they were transported back to the bunker.

When they arrived Virgil was about to take a set forward when Jinwoo summoned Igris and his other soldiers and the system began warning him.

[DANGER!!!!!]

[WARNING HOST LIFE IS IN DANGER!!!!]

Hearing this Virgil jumped back and pulled out his sword. The next moment a dark pressing aura released from the bunker and surrounded them.

Looking around they saw as the trees were blown away dirt was kicked up and a barrier was created around them.

"W-what the hell is happening," Virgil said with sweat dripping down his brow

Looking around both of them watched as a dark cloud of energy combined and shaped into a humanoid creature with four horns and eight eyes.

"So you're the person that caused my daughter to feel hope. Quite pathetic, but on the other hand...he is interesting," the being spoke

"Trigon...how the hell are you here?" Virgil asked 

"Oh well, that's thanks to you. You made my daughter flustered, and the second of her complete loss of control was all I needed for some of my magci to get through,"

(Damn it why did I even tell anyone!) Virgil yelled to himself

"Master this is the man you spoke of...his name is dark red...I have never seen a creature with a dark red title," Jinwoo said clenching his dagger

"Oh so you have heard of me that's interesting...I will tell you once to give up your feeble attempts will only lead to you to die before I arrive. yes I want you to live so that when I arrive I can kill you and strip away any hope Raven ever had," Trigon laughed

"Sorry, but I already promised Raven I would stop you so I have no other option..." Virgil replied

"Fine then die like the ant you are," Trigon said with disgust in his voice

Holding his hand out to the sky before him a dark red pool of blood began to form from his hand. The next moment creatures that looked like malnourished zombies began crawling out of it.

"I hope you have fun with these...oh and I will be taking those two with me," Trigon said before disappearing

As he disappeared the creatures kept crawling out and charged at them. 

"Jinwoo take care of these I have to get to the others," Virgil ordered

"Consider them dead," Jinwoo replied

Not wasting any time Jinwoo and his shadows charged at the creatures. At the same time, Virgil melted the bunker door and ran inside.

As he did the creatures tried to chase him but Igris killed them before they could get close. 

With Jinwoo dealing with the creature Virgil rushed inside. Reaching the living area he looked around and saw Trigon's fake body standing over an unconscious Raven whose crystal was glowing and black vies covered her body.

Next to him was Wally and Zatanna who both had full-blood red eyes and black veins covering their body.

{Careful those two are under his control} Sabastian said

"I know," Virgil replied

"Oh, you made it. Good now say goodbye to your friends," Trigon laughed

"Get the hell away from them!" Virgil yelled creating a barrier around the three.

With them protected, he created a three-meter spear from his Flames and coated it with lightning and light magic. 

[New Spell: Heavenly Flame Tempest[Lv.1]

Launching the spear Virgil watched as it made contact with Trigon's fake body. Once it did a giant explosion began demolishing the bunker and blowing off the the dirt above.

{Careful Virgil I still sense him}

Hearing that Virgil coated his eyes in mana. Once he did he could see the outline of Trigon. Clicking his tongue he created three more spears using half of his mana and launched them at the outline.

"Come on boy is that all you got. you will never stop me with just this!!!" Trigon teased

"Just shut up and die!!," Virgil yelled as the spears rushed at him

Before the spear could make contact he covered everyone in multilayered barriers. As the spears made contact a cluster of explosions began destroying all of the ghouls and the surrounding area.

Once the explosion stopped Virgil used wind magic to clear the area and looked around.

Before looking around he could not find Trigon but he he heard a voice filled with surprise and anger.

"Well well well...maybe you're not an ant. But understand this. For raising your hand against me I will make sure to break you physically and mentally. I hope you enjoy the little time you have left," Trigon spoke before his voice disappeared.

At the same time, the barrier around them disappeared along with the black veins that covered the three.

Ignoring Trigon's threat Virgil walked up to Raven and and picked her up. looking down at her weak body covered in black veins and black blood he felt nothing but anger.

As he held her in his arms Virgil did not realize but he was releasing a large amount of bloodlust and mana that spread miles.

"Master, are you okay?" Jinwoo asked feeling his bloodlust

"I'm fine...This incident really just pissed me off," Virgil said clenching his fist
