It is difficult to get to the human world, but it is very easy to return to hell, and after completing Gabriel's mission, Tatsunaru and Maya also set foot in the gap between the world.

On the way back, it was much calmer, and with the help of an orientation compass, they quickly found the entrance to the hellish world.

At the edge of a canyon, there were two figures standing at this time, one in one and one in a young man, no doubt It was An Mixiu and Corvette who were waiting for Chenming's return.

"My lord, did you say that Young Master Chenming can complete the first mission of the Demon Palace?"

Looking at the crack that suddenly appeared in the canyon, Corvette asked softly, "I heard that Luo Xi has some inexplicable relationship with the God of Hope......

"My best successor certainly did my job. ”

An Mixiu smiled mysteriously, "Although it was a bit of a trick, it was perfect to put the Angel of Hope into hell, although I didn't plan to tell him about this matter so early." ”

Corvette was stunned and saluted, "My subordinates understand." ”

"Corvette, there's one thing I need you to understand. ”

After a moment of silence, An Mixiu raised his head and said, "Most of the seven major offices of the Demon Palace are gathered by elites selected from various camps, after you enter, you are no longer in the camp, but only belong to the Demon Palace and are loyal to that demon group, remember, even I, without the instructions of the Demon Palace, I can't directly call on your forces to complete my private affairs, you know?"

"Of course my subordinates know. ”

Corvette hurriedly bowed his head in response, and after a while, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "...... young master Chenming?"

"When he was in the Demon Palace, he belonged to the Demon Palace. ”

"If one day I fall, or if he surpasses me, then he will be the Monarch of Despair, and until then, he belonged to him. ”

"Yes. ”

Corvette said respectfully, "The loyalty of the Lord is also known to him. ”

"Do you still need to say it?"

An Mixiu laughed loudly, "I grew up watching her. ”

"It's also ......"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then put their eyes on the crack, and at this time, two figures appeared in the originally colorful crack.

"Welcome back, my successor. ”

An Mixiu stepped forward with a smile and greeted Chen Ming, "How do you feel?

"Didn't you see it all and ask me how I felt. ”

Walking out of the crack, Chen Ming glanced at the young man who was already half a head shorter than himself, and said, "Did you already know about Luo Xi's matter?"

An Mixiu replied, "Don't you blame me?"

"Am I to blame, what do you blame?"

Chen Ming smiled and said, "I am already grateful to Dade for being able to see her for the last time and explain things clearly." ”

"It's great that you can think that way. ”

Patting Chenming's shoulder, An Mixiu looked at Maya again and said with a smile, "Have you eaten enough?"

"Uh-huh!"

Maya nodded and said with a bright smile, "Fallen Angel of the Seventh Order!"

"Good. ”

Smiling with satisfaction, Anmixiu turned around and said to Corvette, "Let's go." ”

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Where are you going?

"What's the use of you going back to the academy now?"

An Mixiu said as he walked, "Of course, it will take you to the First Hell and fulfill our promise." ”

"Promise?"

Chen Ming was even more puzzled, and at the same time felt a little gloomy in his heart, "I haven't completed the assessment of the Demon Palace, am I still qualified to go to the Demon Palace?"

"This young master can rest assured. ”

Corvette said with a smile, "When you complete the hunting of the seventh-order angel Haimeze, even if you complete the task performed by the Demon Palace, of course, you will be rewarded accordingly. ”

Chen Ming was skeptical, looked at An Mixiu, and asked, "Is that so?"

An Mixiu didn't look back, but stepped into the Corvette magic array, "If you don't want to go, I won't force it." ”

"You're lying to me if you don't reply, are you?"

Although he said so, Chen Ming's footsteps were moving towards An Mixiu.

"Am I lying to you, won't you know if you go?"

After Chen Ming and Maya stepped into the magic array, An Mixiu nodded at Corvette, who understood, raised the wand in his hand, and the vast magic power merged into the magic array.

"Space magic, plane teleportation!"

In a flicker of light, the four of them disappeared into the canyon.

The first hell.

As the highest level of hell, there are no countries, no cities, no towns, only huge palaces towering in all corners of the earth, and in the center of the world, on the highest mountain, there is a magical palace built on magma.

The palace did not fall on the lava, but was suspended above the crater by some strange energy.

Around the palace with a dark red body, there was an endless scarlet hot wind raging, faintly emanating fluctuations, and even the seventh-order demons were palpitating.

And this palace is the place of the supreme power in hell, the Demon Palace.

Attached to this place called Sunset Volcano, there are a total of three palaces, and the location of the four Chenming people at this time is one of them.

"This is where you settled in the First Hell?"

Curiously looking at the extremely magnificent tower-shaped buildings around him, Chen Ming was surprised, "It's really you." ”

"Really?"

An Mixiu smiled proudly, "Except for the Demon Palace, this is my palace with the widest area and the best decoration, as far as our neighbors and those two are not as good as here." ”

"yes. ”

Corvette said with a smile, "Lord An Mixiu is the auxiliary minister of the Demon Palace, this Hall of Despair has stood here for thousands of years, and no one has been able to shake its status. ”

"Alright, that's all for boasting. ”

With a casual wave of his hand, An Mixiu walked ahead and led the way, "I'll take you to the main hall." ”

"Well, sir. ”

Corvette said respectfully, "There are still some things to deal with in the Third Knight's Palace, so ......"

"Oh. ”

An Mixiu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "Then you can go." ”

"Thank you, sir. ”

The Corvetic nodded in thanks, then magically left.

"Okay, let's go. ”

An Mixiu smiled slightly, and walked ahead to lead the way, "Although it is a palace, the area here is no less than a city, so I have set up teleportation magic in every place here, which is convenient to save time, you may need to live here permanently in the future, and you also need to familiarize yourself with your own environment as soon as possible, if you want to go anywhere, you can let Maya take you there." ”

"Listen to you......"

Chen Ming, who was following behind, looked around, "You don't live here often?"

"I'm the dean of the Nightmare Academy, and there are so many things in the Demon Palace, how can I have time to live here and enjoy Qingfu?"

Led the two of them to a white building and walked in, "There are many servants and deacons in the palace for you to send, if you have anything, you can ask them to do, in short, this is your home, there is no place you can't go, there is nothing you can't do." ”

"The old fox really speaks. ”

said this, but there was a faint smile on Chen Ming's face.

The building is the teleportation point that An Mixiu said earlier, and if you want to use it, you only need to inject magic power into the magic crystals on the wall, and each magic crystal is marked with a different location and teleported to a different place.

Shrouded in light, they came to a square with a huge fountain pool in the middle of the square, carved with strange beasts that Chen Ming had never seen before.

In front of the fountain is a magnificent white building, which is obviously the main hall that An Mixiu said.

At the entrance of the main hall, a man and a woman stood at this time, and it was clear from the deacon robes they were wearing that they were the workers here.

"Lord Anmishu, Miss Maya. ”

When they were coming, the two deacons bowed and saluted.

"These two are the deacons of the Temple of Despair, the male is called Xia Mi, and the female is called Xifa, and they are also one of the few uncrowned kings in our camp, responsible for managing and guarding the palace. ”

After An Mixiu introduced the deacon, he said to the two of them, "This is Chen Ming, my successor, and the new owner of this palace, who will be your allegiance in the future. ”

"Yes. ”

Xia Mi and Xifa nodded, and saluted to Chenming, "Young Master Chenming." ”

Chen Ming returned the salute and said, "Take us in." ”

Following the two deacons into the main hall, what caught my eye was a huge living room, with a central European style of decoration, with the main color of dark red, releasing a gorgeous ancient atmosphere.

"The rooms here are basically vacant, you can pick and choose one. ”

"Deacon servants are not qualified to live with their masters, so in the future if there are people you approve of, you can also bring them in to live with you. ”

"Doesn't Maya live here?"

Chen Ming frowned and said, "Her status is not the same as that of a deacon servant, right?"

"You misunderstood, Brother Chenming. ”

Maya looked up and explained, "In the past, I was in a sealed state, and Lord An Mishu specially built the Sealing Tower for me, and I went directly to the academy until last year, so I ......"

"What do you think I'm for?"

An Mixiu shook his head helplessly and said, "Even if they are servants, their living environment will not be much worse than here, you can feel the breath here." ”

Chen Ming's expression slowed slightly, and he closed his eyes, and his magic power rippled in the hall.

"It's ......"

In the ignorance, he felt a terrifying aura surging, it was the same as his magic power, full of despair, "the breath of the demon king ......"

"The breath of a monarch, to be exact. ”

An Fan modified the righteous path, "You are my successor, and you share a source of magic power with me, so you don't reject this place, but other demons are different, unless it's me, or someone you approve of, other people who enter here will be eroded by the aura that overflows here, and even if they are recognized, living here for a long time, they will suppress their magic power, and the gains outweigh the losses, understand?"

"Is that so?"

Chen Ming glanced suspiciously at the two people who were standing there like logs.

"Lord An Mixiu is the most merciful of the three great monarchs. ”

Natsumi said, "Even an uncrowned king like me can't bear the blessings of this place. ”

"And you don't want to think that there are not ten thousand but eight thousand servants here, who live with the monarch. ”

An Mixiu said angrily, "This is a palace, not a pigsty!"

"Puff ......"

Maya couldn't help but smile, "Brother Chenming, the adults said you were a pig ......"

“......”

Chen Ming was speechless and said, "Since this is a pigsty, isn't it too wasteful to raise only one pigsty for such a big pigsty, Maya, you will also move in tonight." ”

"Yes, yes!"

Maya nodded without thinking, but then she sensed something was wrong, frowned, and said, "I'm not a pig." ”

An Mixiu burst out and said angrily, "So, this is not a pigsty!"

"It doesn't matter if it's not fun, it's just lively. ”

Chen Ming shook his head indifferently and said, "Xia Mi, you and Xifa should also pick a room to move in today, so that it is convenient to take care of us." ”

"This ......"

Xifa and Xia Mi both looked at An Mixiu hesitantly, and after he nodded, he replied, "Yes." ”

"Alright. ”

Seeing that Chen Ming had decided, An Mixiu turned around and said, "Since the matter has been arranged, then I will go to the Demon Palace first." ”

As he spoke, he took a step and walked outside, but before he took two steps, he stopped again, walked up to Chen Ming and said, "Before that, you have to give me the Book of Magic at Dusk." ”

Chen Ming's eyes froze, and he said cautiously, "What do you want this book for?"

"Hmmm......"

An Mixiu was speechless, and said with a smile, "First of all, this book doesn't belong to you, and secondly, this book is about some things about the person you want to meet, if you want to see her in the near future, then give me the book, if you don't want to, then you can sleep with this book, I have no opinion." ”

"Are you sure you can let me see her?"

The more this time, the more uneasy Chen Ming felt in his heart, the "Book of Magic at Dusk" was the only thing Shaqiluo left him, although he knew that An Mixiu would not deceive himself, but he still had to doubt.

But despite this, he handed the book to An Mixiu, who took it and smiled, "Don't worry, you can see her whenever you want." ”

"I hope you're telling the truth. ”

Sighing softly, Tatsunami watched him leave.

Perhaps due to its proximity to the crater, the night sky in the Temple of Despair was not as brilliant as the Third Hell, but rather a dull dark red.

Under the blood-colored moonlight, Chen Ming sat alone by the fountain, without the breath of ancient books, and even sleeping became a luxury for him to be timid.

"Young Master Chenming, you just came here, are you still used to it?"

Behind Chen Ming, Xia Mi's figure suddenly appeared, he lowered his head to look at his new master, he had been to the human world, he always felt that this young master was a little different from other humans.

"There are no stars here. ”

Chen Ming whispered, "Even the moon seems a little lonely. ”

Xia Mi smiled and said, "If the young master doesn't mind, you can come to a place with me." ”

Chen Ming was stunned, got up and said, "Where is it?"

"A place where the young master will not be so lonely. ”

Xia Mi said mysteriously, walking to the front to lead the way, and Chen Ming followed behind him.

The two of them left the square and walked for about half an hour along the path separated by strange buildings.

"Here?"

After walking for a long time, Chen Ming vaguely heard a faint laughter in front of him.

"This is where I used to stay. ”

Xia Mi didn't look back, but Chen Ming saw a hint of tenderness on his side face.

After another ten minutes or so, a brilliant light attracted Chen Ming's attention, and under the light, a group of weak beings less than the fifth order were playing there.

"They are servants here. ”

Seeing the doubt in Chenming's eyes, Xia Mi chuckled and said, "Lord An Mixiu didn't deceive you, he didn't force us to live anywhere, and even, he didn't treat us as slaves, this palace is ostensibly a temple for the sovereign, but in fact, it is the warmest home that the Lord has built for us." ”

Chen Ming's eyes were shocked to the point that it was difficult to regain.

"In this world, there are many, many civilizations born all the time, and there are also a lot of civilizations that have fallen. ”

Without looking at Chenming again, Xia Mi looked at those people and said, "The job of Master An Mixiu is to spread despair and release the end when a civilization is declared to be destroyed, but even if he brings destruction to those worlds, there has never been a single person who will blame him. ”

"The end of the world is inevitable, and the destruction of civilization is also inevitable, this is the natural law of heaven, and no one can change it. ”

He smiled and whispered, "And I, they, we are all the last people that the adults will save before the world is destroyed." Adults once said that as long as there is a person alive, then the world is not really destroyed, and he has been using his powerful magic to delay the destruction of a world, even if it is a hundred years, ten years, a year, as long as he can do it, he will do it. ”

"I, like Sypha, have been with him for the longest time, and we all know that even if we wanted to leave, the adults would not say anything, but we did not leave, and followed him year after year, in order to repay his gifts, and to protect these children. ”

He looked at Chen Ming and said sincerely, "Young Master, I brought you here, I just hope you can understand that everything an adult does has his own reason, and I hope you can believe that here, in this huge palace, you will never be alone." ”

Retracting his gaze, Chen Ming smiled and said, "What An Mixiu can do, I can also do it, I am his successor, and in the future, I will inevitably bear all his sins, responsibilities, including this palace, and you in this palace." ”

He turned around, did not disturb the lives of the slaves, and walked towards the lonely and indifferent main hall in the distance, "I will try my best to make this place my home, and you will eventually become my family......"
