Chapter 9: Faint Demonic Traces

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Davis had finished digesting all the information, another system notification sounded.

[Ding! Demonic bloodline activated. Check-in transformation. Received additional reward. Demonic power cultivation of 10,000 years.]

It was very strange. The only reward for checking-in in his demonic bloodline was demonic power. There were no other magic and props.

Davis thought to himself that the Sword of Punishment might be an item that both the angel and demon bloodlines possessed. It was very likely that the system had combined the two rewards.

[Ding! Host’s demon strength has broken through and reached demon world commander level one!]

The demon power in his body suddenly exploded and his eyes turned red.

If Davis had not set up a protective barrier in advance, such an explosion of energy would have been impossible to hide.

…

On that day, he completed his work as usual.

Walking out of the library, he happened to meet Angelina.

“After you’re done, go to the Angel Square. The seraphim have something to tell you.”

Angelina said.

Davis was a little surprised, but he didn’t ask why. He nodded and agreed, “Okay, I’ll go right away.”

“Remember to inform Fiona. See you later.”

“Got it. I’ll be going now.”

Seeing Angelina’s back disappearing into the square, he immediately went to find Fiona.

In hindsight, it had been a long time since he had last seen Fiona.

There must be something unusual if the seraphim suddenly called him to the square…

Soon, he found Fiona at the place where she usually practiced her martial arts.

He saw that Davis was watching him practice. Fiona did not stop immediately, but chose to continue to practice amidst the sweat…

Davis was not in a hurry and simply watched as she practiced.

She soon reached the last practice and finally put away her sword before walking toward Davis.

“What’s wrong? It’s rare for you to come and see me, Little Brother. I’m usually the one who goes to see you, but today…”

Seeing that she was only garrulous when it came to him, Davis could not help but reach out his hand and pinch her face.

Fiona slapped his hand away and said, “How dare you treat your Big Sister like this… Are you itching for trouble…”

Seeing how Fiona was rubbing her hands together, Davis immediately changed the topic. “The seraphim are waiting for us at the square. Let’s hurry over and not let them get anxious…”

With that, Davis ran far away before Fiona could react.

“You…”

…

Angel Square.

Other than dozens of ordinary angels, there were also a few seraphim standing on the high platform.

Those who were not busy with work were all summoned.

“Everyone is here. I won’t waste any more words. I’ll tell you the reason why I summoned everyone here today.”

Gabriel looked around and saw that everyone had arrived. He said softly, “There are signs of demons appearing in the mortal world again. In order to prevent the filthy demons from hurting our believers, I have some matters to arrange for you.”

Everyone was a little shocked when he said that…

Ever since the last war between gods and demons and the terrible defeat in the abyss, it had been a long time since they had heard any movements from the demons. It came as a surprise that the would start rising again after so long.

Gabriel ignored the crowd below and continued, “This time, the traces of demons were found in a few small towns near the Draenor Mountains in the human world.”

“At first, I thought they were undead creatures like ghouls, but a priest mysteriously disappeared when he went to purify them. Later, he found traces of magic from the abyss, and someone had communicated with the demons of hell.

“The church can’t spare any manpower now, so your mission is to investigate the reason behind this and to appease the residents there…”

Davis thought to himself, ‘As expected. Based on what happened between Liv and himself, hell—which had been defeated in the last war—had recovered its strength again.

When he was cultivating, he would also read the books in the library, especially since he had the other half of the demon’s bloodline, so he paid more attention to the forces of the abyss.

The battle between the abyss and heaven was especially intense.

Every time there was a great war between gods and demons in the human world, the amount of bloodshed would flow like a river. In addition to the believers of both sides, the human world was stained with the blood of many races.

Many races perished because of such a world-wide war.

An example would be the pegasus and the centaurs who were in the same camp as the angels…

There were also the races of the Abyss who suffered heavy losses. There were almost no dragons in hell now…

The war between the faiths was especially tragic.

The war between the nations of the human world was practically a game in the face of the war of faiths.

Once it involved faith, every ‘warrior’ in the human world would pick up their weapons. Even if the church did not issue a summoning order, they would not be afraid of death at such a time.

Because once faith collapsed, everything would become meaningless.

The angels who understood that a war might break out again took a long time to snap out of their senses.

All of them began to worry.

They were afraid of themselves, afraid of others…

“Oh God, Omniscient and Almighty God, please pray that this news is not the precursor to a war…”

Some people could not help but clench their hands and place them in front of their chest to pray.

“Alright, there’s no need to worry. This isn’t the first war.”

Gabriel looked at the war-weary angels below and waved his hand impatiently. “Ever since I was born, I’ve gone through a total of three such wars. At that time, I was just like all of you, just a little angel.

“But every time we won, every time we returned, our Paradise Island would become stronger, and our believers would become more devout

“I think this time will not be an exception. Don’t be so dejected, cheer up. You are angels! The angels of the mortal world’s faith.”

Even so, death would always be present in war.

Could anyone be 100% confident that they could come back alive?

After all, swords were blind on the battlefield!

…

Davis was very calm.

The angels enjoyed the best things on Paradise Island, so it was clear that they had to find those things from somewhere.

Any coveted gift would surely be secretly marked with a good price!
