Chapter 1016 Searoth (Part 2)
"Looks like things are not as simple as they seem on the surface..." Anastasia muttered with narrowed eyes as she looked at the three Lava Demons in front of her, aiming dangerous-looking crossbows at them.
Evan was also surprised when he saw the threeva demons because, from what he had heard, he thought they had gone extinct.
"Who are you?" One of theva demons, who was at the peak of Rank Two asked in a cold voice, trying to maintain hisposure while sneakily sending a message using hismunication crystal.
All threeva demons were two to three meters tall, their skin dark ck with cracks running all over their bodies, and deep orange,va-like blood could be seen flowing within their bodies through the cracks. Their heads were round in shape, with abnormallyrge red eyes and small round noses.
It was the first time Evan had seen ava demon, and just from looking at them, he could tell that all threeva demons in front of him were far more powerful than normal core evolvers.
The peak Rank Twova demon who had just spoken even gave him a slight sense of danger, which surprised him because he knew with his current power, if he tried his best, he could kill any Rank Two core evolver with just a single hit.
"We are not here to fight. Call Searoth, and you will understand," Anastasia said in a calm voice as she changed herrge w back into a normal hand.
The expressions of the threeva demons changed when they heard the name Searoth, and their eyes turned even colder.
"How do you know that name?" Magmorn, the peak Rank Twova demon asked while aiming his crossbow at Anastasia and Evan.
Anastasia frowned when she saw theva demons aiming their crossbows at Evan and her. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
She didn''t care too much about those crossbows since they couldn''t hurt either of them. The power of the crossbow attack wasparable to the attack of a mid-level Rank Two Core Evolver, indicating the materials used in the creation of the crossbows and their bolts were not ordinary.
''We could forcefully enter, but it willplicate thingster on,'' Anastasia thought, feeling a headache because she wasn''t good at talking.
Instead of talking, she preferred to use her fists, but if possible, she didn''t want to fight againstva demons who were practically Valtair''s people.
"Look, just go inside and tell Searoth that we want to deliver a message to him from Valtair. We hav—"
Before Anastasia could finish her sentence, the threeva demons shot their bolts again and shouted in anger-filled voices.
"Do you think we are fools? His Majesty Valtair died thousands of years ago. If you are here to harm Master Searoth, then you will have to pass through us," Magmorn shouted with zing eyes as the deep orange blood within his body started to flow faster.
Anastasia simply waved her hand, and all three crossbow bolts that theva demons shot were destroyed in an instant.
"These stupid brats..." ck lines appeared on Anastasia''s forehead, and for a moment, her eyes shed with a deep ck colour. The moment her eyes shed with deep ck, the shadows of the threeva demons moved and ck chains emerged from them, binding all three.
"You—" Magmorn shouted in an angry and panicked voice when he was bound by ck chains and looked at Evan and Anastasia with hate-filled eyes.
Anastasia ignored Magmorn and the two otherva demons and stepped inside the cave.
"Let''s go inside. The longer we stay here, the higher the chances of this ce getting exposed," She said and both of them stepped inside.
After entering, Anastasia looked at the cave entrance and covered it with ck energy. Once the ck energy covered the cave entrance, it disappeared from the outside, making it impossible for others to find.
Just as Anastasia hid the entrance, she sensed something and looked deeper into the cave.
"So he finally decided to show up," She said with a smile on her face and waited along with Evan.
Evan could feel an aura even stronger than Ashley''s approaching them, indicating the personing was definitely at least a Rank Five Core Evolver.
The temperature of their surroundings suddenly started to increase, and soon they heard a heavy voice.
"Who are you and what do you want?"
As the voice fell, Evan and Anastasia saw a three-and-a-half-meter-tallva demon walking towards them. The body of theva demon was very muscr, and the deep orange blood that flowed within the cracks of his skin released a sense of oppression.
''Mid-level Rank Five, huh...'' Anastasia said inwardly upon seeing theva demon and instead of answering his question, her appearance started to change and soon she returned to her original form.
When the mid-level Rank Fiveva demon saw Anastasia changing her appearance, he frowned, but soon hisrge red eyes widened in shock as he recognized her face.
"You—" A brief look of panic crossed Searoth''s face, and he took a step back. As someone who had been alive for more than thirty thousand years, he knew Anastasia very well.
"You don''t need to panic. We are not here with ill intentions," Anastasia said in a calm voice when she saw Searoth''s panicked look.
"You know, that''s a line that only a person with ill intentions would say," Evan said to Anastasia in a low voice.
Hearing Evan, Anastasia looked at him with a dry expression.
Evan quickly looked away when he saw Anastasia''s irritated look and decided to keep his mouth shut.
"Hmp!" She snorted when she saw Evan wasn''t saying anything, and then turned back to Searoth, who had calmed down after his initial panic.
"Can we talk inside?" She asked when she noticed Searoth had calmed down.
Searoth looked at Anastasia for a while and finally nodded, gesturing for both of them to follow him. If it had been someone else, he would have already attacked, but he knew the woman in front of him was not someone he could mess with, so he hoped to settle everything without violence.
''Looks like he''s not stupid,'' Anastasia thought and nodded her head when Searoth didn''t act rashly.
After freeing the threeva demons whom she bound earlier, she followed him deeper into the cave.
