Chapter 52 - 52. The Search

On the demon continent with dark red skies, a big castle on a plain is home to a god. Zareth, the evil god, slammed his hands onto his obsidian table *BANG* causing a shockwave to ripple through the room. His underling demons flinch, knowing that their master is in a foul mood.

"Why was my army defeated?!" Zareth bellowed. "Who is responsible for this failure?!"

The demon king, named Belzorath, steps forward cautiously. "My lord, we have investigated the matter thoroughly. It seems that a powerful monster was under the command of a young girl who attacked our troops unexpectedly."

Zareth growls in frustration and slams his fist into the wall *BOOOM CRAACK* causing cracks to appear. "I will not tolerate failure!" he shouts. "Find out who this girl is and bring her to me! I want to know how she managed to defeat my army."

Belzorath bows low. "As you command, my lord. I will personally lead a team to investigate this matter and report back to you."

Belzorath left the castle, he picks up 70 powerful demons to follow him. Some being demon generals as their levels are between 81 to 90, SS rank. They're very powerful, capable of conquering a kingdom. But on Nytri's leveling scale, there are between level 35 to 39. They use teleportation magic and appear on the 13th floor. They get ready for a fight but nothing happens, the start to advance further down the dungeon. This dungeon has the highest difficulty on this continent.

Since Nytri reduced the number of monsters in the dungeon, there aren't in much danger. The monsters here are powerful (Stray monsters created by Nytri) enough to kill 10 of them before they advanced down 2 floors. They come across a Vampire waiting for them on the next floor.

Belzorath steps forward as his eyes glows and he speaks grining. "Dungeon dweller, Nytri." The Vampires eyes open wide. Nytri is possessing it from the 129th floor. She assumes a battle stance.

Vampire looks at them on guard, "What do you want?" she starts to prepare skills. Unfortunately for the demons, she had figured out how to use invisible runic circles.

Belzorath assumes an arrogant demeaner, "I'm here for you, surrender and come with me."

Vampire smirks, "Or what?" the skills are ready.

Belzorath laughs, "Hahahaha, you don't have an option. Get her." The 59 demons were arrogant since it's only 60 against 1.

One demon is walking, "Hahaha, this'll be easy." The others cheer him on as he continues to walk to her. The Vampire/Nytri has covered the floor with trap runes, they are proximity traps and invisible. The demon takes another step *BOOOOOOM*. He is knocked into the ceiling.

The demons and Belzorath are shocked, "What?! What happened? Huh- " He dodges to the side as a blood saucer passed by his neck. He glares at the Vampire but she's gone. He looks to the rook and see the Vampire drop on a demon as it bit into its neck.

Vampire slurps blood, "BLOOD POSSESSION." This skill makes all those bitten by her become possessed. Normally a Vampire of level 27 of rank A can't control a powerful demon like this. But Nytri's level is 82, she's strong enough to evolve into a demi-god.

Possessed demon stares into the ceiling, then it turns to his allies. "Arrrgghhhh!" he attacks them with his sword. A demon is surprised, "Hey! Are you crazy?! Arrggk." He was run through with the sword killing him.

The Vampire got wings and stayed airborne, "BLOOD CYCLONE." A Cyclone is made as it is like spinning blades. Again, a vampire of this level can't defeat them but Nytri's level is higher and the skill is adjusted to her level. It kills them like bugs.

Belzorath is shocked by the scene, "Wha- How? No matter, you will fall by my hands. DARKNESS GRIP." Dark hands appeared from below him and they charge at the Vampire.

The Vampire dodges out of the way, "LIGHT JAVELIN." Javelins of light appeared and were launched at the hands.

"What?! A vampire using light magic?!" Belzorath is shocked, even the demons. "Mtch, DARKNESS SIPHON." A darkness skill that lets you steal an opponent's EP. The vampire is hit.

Vampire regains balance, "Arck! Damn. BLOOD SWORDS." 10 Swords of blood appear in her hands and around her. "TELEPORT." She teleports behind Belzorath, she swings her swords at him slashing his back.

Belzorath looks behind him, "Grh. Impudence! BLACK MAGIC > SOUL EXTRAC- " He starts chanting. The vampire senses danger and use a skill. "ABYSS EXPLOSION." *BOOOOOOm* interrupting Belzoraths chants as he's blown off his feet over 10 meters. A demon throws a lightening skill at the vampire, she tries to dodge but it's an AOE skill.

"Aarrgghh! BAT TRANSFORMATION." The vampire breaks into bats and flies out of the AOE skill. "DARKNESS GRIP." Dark hands appear from the bats and catch the demon who used the attack. The demon is shocked, "Wha? That is Lord Belzo- *CRRAASSHHH*" he is crushed into a puddle of blood.

Everyone is shocked, Belzorath watches the vampire. "She copied my magic?! She's dangerous, but not for me. DARKNESS SIPHON…. Huh? Why isn't she getting weaker." He kept using the skill over and over as the vampire attacks other demons.

Nytri notices the use of the skill but she's able to use the EP in the environment. Belzorath is absorbing the EP in the air rather than the vampire. The demons have been reduced to 48.

A demon is enraged, "DAMN BUG!!!" He charges at the vampire. He gets his axe ready as he glows in a red aura, a berserk skill.

The vampire is ready, "ABYSS SPEAR. BAT TRANSFORMATION." A giant spear appeared behind her as she changed into bats. The demon is impaled by the spear.

"Gigihh" he dies. Belzorath glares, "Grrr, ENOUGH! DARK GIANT'S ARM!" He charges at the vampire as he raises his arm and a dark giant arm appears. He swings it at the vampire and slams it into the ground. *BOOOOM* the vampire is flattened. He raises the hands.

The vampire coughs blood, "*Cough cough* Bastard, TELEPORT." The vampire vanishes from the floor leaving the demons. Belzorath stares at the ground the vampire was with a blank stare. He mumbles, "She survived my trump card?"

"Lord Belzorath." A demon flies over, "Do we go after her?"

Belzorath shook his head, "No, we're leaving. The floors ahead are filled with danger. We've fulfilled our mission either way. Bring the teleportation scrolls." The demon brings a scroll with runes on it, he activates it as a big rune circle appears below them. They teleport out of the dungeon.

.........

A week later, Belzorath returns to Zareth's chamber with news. "My lord, we have found the girl responsible for the attack. She is a dungeon dweller named Nytri."

Zareth sits before a table with antiques and a dragon head on a wall to the sides with glass windows behind him. Zareth's eyes gleams with excitement. "Nytri, you say? Bring her to me! I want her to serve me!"

Belzorath hesitates. "My lord, that will be hard as she resides in the lower floors of the Abyssal Sanctum. Also, I'm not sure if she's a vampire, human or a monster."

Zareth is surprised by the news, "Oh, them what is she?" putting his hands together.

Belzorath responds, "She seems to be a new breed of monsters. None I've ever seen before. She controlled the vampire yet she wasn't anywhere close to do it."

Zareth is impresse, "A new breed you say. If I get her to join me, I can get a strong servant like her. Maybe even my wife. Go and tell her to come to me."

Belzorath is surprised and felt the task is impossible, "My lord, she may not be easily persuaded to join our cause. She was reluctant to surrender and I am certain she won't go down without a fight."

Zareth waves his hand dismissively. "I will deal with her myself. Prepare my transport to The Abyssal Sanctum. I will go and retrieve her personally."

And with that, Zareth set off on his quest to find Nytri and make her serve him, determined to have the powerful dungeon dweller on his side no matter the cost.
