“As for the toxic fumes, that’s what is currently pooling on the inside with the rest of those demonic experiments. It’s a bit slower in execution, but it’ll force those creatures into a very lengthy hibernation. Their energies will still be recognizable by the valley so now whenever any experiments in this half-complete state enter the valley, they’ll be immediately teleported into this prism and no longer be a threat to the valley,” I revealed.
“Impressive,” Zasper praised.
I knew Goldibitch was going to say something, but I was beginning to not carry the patience for whatever bullshit she wished to spew at me, so I snapped my fingers as she opened her mouth.
Her body was forced upward as the same black vines that wrapped around the transparent prism were now around her outstretched arms and spread legs. She was mere inches from where I continued to sit comfortably on my shadowed stallion.
She attempted to speak, but not a squeak came out, which immediately made her freak out. I further grinned as I leaned in to whisper in her ear.“Why don’t I make this very clear,”I snarled as my eyes bled to black.“I am your master. You…are my pet. I earned that right the moment I sliced a knife through your throat and kept you alive. Complain, and you’ll be punished. Waste my life span, and you will be punished. Make a single noise that pisses me off, and most certainly you will be punished.”
I leaned back to see the fuming anger in her eyes while my cunning smile taunted her immensely.
“You had five years to play this game of deceit, and what a waste of time you spent being a puppet when you thought you were some grand puppeteer. Such a shame. I should feel pity for you, but one does not show empathy to cocky idiots.”
Shaking my head, I enjoyed the way the vines immediately rushed to wrap around her neck. The action made her whimper and struggle against the vine’s hold on her.
“I’m about to show you how a real puppeteer pulls the strings of their devoted puppets, and by the end of all of this, that entitled attitude of yours will be nothing but a fragment of your memories while your submission will be a trophy I show Baker himself.”
She fought to shake her head but stilled at the touch of the metal black knife that made her cheek begin to rot before our eyes.
Fear flooded her expression while I began to giggle lowly. It was a sound that would ignite goosebumps on anyone’s flesh.
“You said Malifer’s Demon Valley Pack was boring, right?”I purred and leaned in to lick the black blood that oozed from the cut that was continuing to spread more venom that made her skin rapidly rot.“Until I get my demon king back by my side, I’ll show you how joyous my Demon Valley will be with my reign.”
The intense aroma of her rotting flesh matched with intense fear made me laugh while I enjoyed the sight of her entire body rotting to black before melting into rotting organs.
Sitting further up and taking one last glance at my created monument, I looked to Zasper.
I didn’t need to say a word as my knight looked at his fellow comrades.
“Let’s make our way into the Forest of Infinite Souls!”
“Yes, Commander!”
Glancing up at the sky, I smiled proudly as I enjoyed the wonderful sight of the moon.
If it’s a game you wish to play, I’ll ensure it’s one I’ll be victorious in playing.
CHAPTER1
Into The Depths Of The Valley Of Broken Dreams
“From here on, it would be best you stay behind,” I announced as Zasper helped me off my horse. “I feel as though this path would be too small for all of us to walk through in single file.”
We peered into the cave entrance. The few steps that led into the void oasis were covered in pitch black. I could feel the dip in the atmosphere, though my focus briefly looked upward as I inspected the place that seemed to be the catalyst to all of our ends —and beginnings.
"You’ll need someone to go with you, Lady Heartwell,” Zasper acknowledged while the others began to gather in a semi-circle formation just before the forest entrance.
They lowered their spears into the tainted earth, igniting beams of black that reached high into the air before spreading out and joining together to make a wall of shadows.
I doubted anyone would come from the valley to try to aid us —or stop us— but this would also ensure that if Baker decided to waltz down here from the cliff, we’d have him sealed off.
“Hmmm.” I thought about it, but looking at the fleet only made me feel the need to keep them together. “I need you all together. I’m unsure how things are going to turn out once I go inside, but my priority is to find Malifer and Momo. Once I get Momo, I’ll teleport her back here. It shouldn’t be too hard, but I’d like her to be with you all. I’m sure she could easily add to the defensive force.”
Zasper bowed his head in complete agreement. “I agree that Princess Momo would indeed be of assistance in defense against our various enemies,” he agreed.
“Princess, huh,” I commented, and enjoyed how his cheeks slightly flushed red. “Cute.”
Peering over my shoulder, I confirmed Goldibitch was still with us — unconscious and barely breathing after our rather bumpy journey over here.
