Aetheris felt like he was on the verge of losing his mind.
The oppressive Demonic energy around him was suffocating.
This wasn't his first encounter with such an aura.
Having completed his Wandering Trial after turning twenty, Aetheris had gained the privilege to travel freely in and out of Suncrest Sect.
He had even joined the Unity's forces to eradicate remnants of the Demonic Sect in the past.
His first confrontation with Demonic energy was at the age of twenty-four, during an encounter with the Black Grievance Group, one of the scattered remnants of the old Demonic Sect.
The leader of the Black Grievance Group, thought to be long dead, had emerged from their hideout, albeit missing an arm and an eye.
At the time, Aetheris, being the strongest in the group, managed to subdue the leader.
His feat earned him the title Crimson Blade of Ten Thousand Days.
