Chapter 661
There was a zone devoid of life inside the mountain chain that divided the areas of influence of the Elbas family and the Shandal Empire .
That feature was quite peculiar in a rank 5 danger zone, especially since some heroic cultivators believed that it hid a rank 6 existence inside its perimeter .
An area devoid of life in a lair of powerful magical beasts was unusual, but the mountain chain was treated in a similar way to the mystical fog .
It was a danger zone that could be easily crossed on the western coast through the city of Slyfall, so there was no point in venturing through its dangerous territory .
Yet, the terrain of that particular spot began to show traces of activity for the first time in millennia at some point .
Shining lines appeared on the ground and spread through a few hundreds of meters vast area, creating an array that illuminated the surface of the mountains around it .
The light radiated by the large formation increased until it became a blinding halo, only to vanish shortly after .
Noah, Flying Demon, and Dreaming Demon's figures had appeared on the ground when the blinding light of the array vanished .
The shining lines under them slowly stopped shining and began to disappear .
Also, some of them even showed slight cracks in their shapes .
The trio knew that the detonation of the palace had started a chain reaction that would slowly shatter the fabric of the separate dimension in the next months .
Those cracks were just one of the after-effects of that event .
The truth was that only Noah and Dreaming Demon had noticed those details since Flying Demon was wholly captivated by the sight of the starry sky .
It was nighttime when they came out of the separate dimension, and the elder had stared at the dark-blue starless sky for a thousand years in solitude .
Seeing a different environment after so much time gave birth to many emotions inside him, he could finally sense that his hardships were over .
Flying Demon stared at the sky for a while and closed his eyes to calm his mind when he felt satisfied .
Noah and Dreaming Demon remained silent by his side .
They were set on giving him all the time that he needed .
Then, he began to speak without opening his eyes .
"Demon Prince, I want to make one thing clear . "
Noah turned toward the elder when he heard those words .
"I know that my lover didn't predict your arrival, but you still saved both of us . A few lifetimes might not be enough to repay this debt, and my assets can't even begin to cover it . Yet, I can promise you our eternal gratitude . Our powers will be at your disposal whenever you desire . "
Flying Demon opened his eyes when he finished speaking and began to fly in the sky to take a better look at the world .
Dreaming Demon shot a warm smile toward Noah before following her lover in the sky .
They had been away for one thousand years, their eagerness to see how the world had changed was understandable .
'I wonder if he would still speak in that way if he knew that I thought about eating both of them . '
Noah shook his head as he suppressed that thought .
Buzzing sounds began to resound inside his sea of consciousness as his inscribed notebook received the mental messages that had accumulated while he was inside the dimension .
Noah had disappeared for less than five years, and the elders of the Hive knew that the exploration of a separate dimension could take far more .
