Is that a Wisp?

Zamuria rammed through the demons on the battlefield, reaching the other side as Feifei kept up with her, hiding behind her all the time. Once they crossed the battlefield and began to scale down the steps, Feifei activated Wind Zone, wrapping it around the two of them, causing their figures to vanish in the eyes of the demons scaling up.

Feifei then turned into a Yellow Demon, manipulating the miasma to not affect Zamuria as they began to run through the land, heading towards one of the outposts Feifei had erected. It was situated 200 kilometers from the city, located within a hill whose entrance was covered by a boulder.

Upon pushing it aside, the two of them entered it, walking through the tunnel as Zamuria noticed the walls covered by a material resembling bone. "These are…?"

"Don't touch them. They're dangerous," Feifei warned her, telling her about the properties of the bone tree. However, she only told her about its ability to absorb blood and miasma.

"Amazing." Zamuria looked at Feifei in a new light. "So, you took the strategic route."

"Yes." Feifei nodded as she said in response, "Individually strong abilities are many, but what I can do with them is limited. As I was constantly chased around in Layer 3, my thoughts changed. So, I began to prefer the strategic route. On top of that, it would help me greatly once I return to God Realm and encounter my enemies again."

"I see." Zamuria nodded, not asking about the rest. She was unwilling to be dragged into Feifei's conflict. As she was the princess of the Zamuria Empire, she had to be careful in making friends or foes. After all, her decisions would affect the state of her continent.

It was true, especially since her empire was in conflict with two other continents, each as strong as her own. So, adding to the number of enemies would only cause her empire's downfall.

With that, Zamuria didn't probe further, only wishing to know the bare minimum that was necessary for the trade between them to be conducted.

Though, as they continued to head deeper into the tunnel, Zamuria began to pout, being vexed since her curiosity was triggered. She wished to know more about what Feifei was capable of and had planned.

It was even more difficult for her to curb her curiosity once she noticed the numerous Monster Geckos roaming about in the place. Most of all, they were subservient to Feifei. 'Just a single ability is enough for her to command and create an entire race. Truly fearsome.'

Feifei then led her through the tunnels, soon approaching a tunnel heading deeper into the ground. An elevator-like mechanism had been installed at the place. It was just a simple rack and pulley mechanism, managed by two Monster Gecko Kings and a group of Mutant Monster Geckos.

They saluted upon seeing Feifei, carefully motioning for them to head into the elevator before beginning to lower it into the tunnel.

As the elevator descended through the tunnel, a massive underground cavern came into view. Numerous bridges of bone were erected at the place as Monster Geckos of all sizes roamed around, carrying numerous tools as they seemed to be working with a variety of projects.

Monster Gecko Kings stood positions at important places, giving orders to everyone, while the Mutant Monster Geckos worked and finished the orders by commanding the regular Monster Geckos under them.

This way, the chain of command formed a seamless workforce. Finally, the one managing everything that happened at the cavern was a Monster Gecko Emperor. As they watched everything, Feifei told Zamuria, "It's hard to create a Monster Gecko Emperor, despite the abundant miasma. At present, I barely have 30 of them. It's definitely insufficient for all the plans that I have in place. After all…"

She expressed her worries as she continued, "Krune is being watched by over 100 Black Demons. If I have to face them, this level of power is clearly insufficient. Usually, he's the type to cause miracles one after another to break out of any pinch in the past. But, just to remain guard for me, he…"

As she thought about the state Krune was at, Feifei was unable to endure anymore, breaking down in tears as she quickly wiped them, using her tremendous speed to her advantage. Wiping her tears, she stood strong, ensuring the Monster Geckos wouldn't be distracted by anything.

Having witnessed everything, Zamuria was unable to endure any longer, patting Feifei's shoulder as she could not help but say, "Tell me your story."

…

"Let's move further now. We've reached the three-kilometer mark," the Red Demon leading a group of 10 Yellow Demons said. "At present, we are one of the teams that have reached the farthest in the labyrinth. We have no idea as to how deep this goes. However, we'll eventually probe through everything."

Saying so, the group passed through a corner, standing rooted to their spots in shock as they gazed at a massive cavern before them. The place was covered by the blood that resembled a pond. And, jutting out of it were islands, made from bone.

Situated on them were huts of a variety of sorts. Living within them were Monster Geckos, the weakest being a Mutant. Also, situated on the biggest island in the center was the largest hut. Living within was a Monster Gecko King.

Since Feifei had reached Tier 4, all the Monster Gecko Kings she created after this had strength were on par with Tier 2 beings. They weren't much to the Yellow and Red Demons, but it still proved troublesome. After all, the strength of the Monster Geckos was steadily rising the deeper in the labyrinth they proceeded.

'Probably at the deepest point, we'll come across Monster Geckos that are on par with…' The Red Demon was unwilling to finish that line of thought, immediately motioning for its team to attack all the Monster Geckos in the place.

Since the caverns were big, there was more than enough space for them to fly. Adding on their superior speed, they were capable of killing all the Monster Geckos in the place before the other party could even react.

Sadly, right as they had entered the cavern, a black shadow flashed past when all the demons became still in the air. The Red Demon looked aghast as it noticed its Demon Core had gone missing.. It barely turned around, noticing Hazak flying in the air, holding all the Demon Cores in its hand.
