Chapter 4: The Blood Demon
Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Blood Demon
A beautiful phoenix came flying towards a cliff, stopping right before an ordinary looking house at the edge of the cliff.
Eren looked at the house which only had one room. He never understood why an Elder lived at such an ordinary place when he could've had a much better place. Was it because he was scared that his truth might be exposed?
That didn't make sense to him either. He had read a few things about this character. And he definitely wasn't this cautious.
In any case, his problem wasn't how small the house was. Instead, his problem was how to enter the house.
The door was still open, but the phoenix couldn't get closer unless it wanted to destroy the entire house accidentally.
Eren thought about jumping from the back of the phoenix so he could land inside the house, but he dropped that thought just as quickly as he remembered how easily he broke his leg.
If it was his real self, he could've covered that distance but not here.
"Sun, send me inside the house." Remembering how the phoenix helped him fly before, he commanded his Spirit Pet, still not knowing if it was going to work.
The novel never mentioned how the Elder entered the house after all. All it mentioned was that the phoenix carried him atop the mountain.
Eren felt a warm gust of wind surround him as soon as he finished issuing his command. The wind carried him inside the house, helping him safely land.
"So it did work." Eren sighed in relief, looking back at the Phoenix. The Mythical Beast was more useful than he had thought. If not for the Mythical Beast, he would've been dead already.
"Thanks, Sun." He thanked the beast before he shifted his attention to the room.
He wanted to find a way to get back. Even if this world was filled with magic and legendary beasts, he didn't want to live here. Rรชaฤ lat๐st ch๐/p/ters on n๐/v/๐/l(b)i๐(.)c/๐/m
He was an undercover agent in this place, who had a sword hanging around his throat at every moment.
If he was exposed, the Devil Sect Matriarch was going to kill him. And if he failed his quest, the Holy Empress was going to chase him to the depths of hell. He didn't want to be caught in the middle of those two monsters.
He started his search from the shelf. But other than a few books, there was nothing on those shelves.
Other than the shelf, there was only a bed in this room. It was as if Ren was a minimalist.
"I'm sure this guy never actually planned to live here in the long run. He was planning to leave after finishing his task. No wonder he doesn't have any stuff."
Eren looked under the bed, once again finding nothing but dust.
"Cough!" As he breathed under the bed, the dust entered his nose, making him cough and sneeze.
"At least clean your house!" he exclaimed, scolding the Elder who he had possessed now.
There was nothing under the bed either. Unlike his assumption, he had failed to find anything.
"Is there really nothing that could help me?" Eren sat on the bed, slightly exhausted.
As soon as he sat, he stood up, feeling something under the mattress. That was the only thing he hadn't checked.
More dust spread in the air as he raised the mattress. Beyond all that dust, his gaze fell on things underneath the mattress.
"This? What is this doing here?" He reached out his hand, picking up his smartphone that was lying under the mattress.
Other than the smartphone, he also saw a golden ring. He kept the phone in his pocket for the moment and picked up the ring.
"This bastard, are you looking to get caught?" He cursed out loud as soon as he looked at the ring.
"Did you want to announce to the entire world that you're from the Hero Academy? I was right, that author is a fool who didn't know how to make their antagonist smart!"
He could see the symbol of the Hero Academy on the ring. It was also shrouded in holy energy. Just at a single glance, it was easy to guess where this ring came from.
Eren couldn't comprehend why someone would be this foolish. If they were infiltrating, they should've bought an ordinary storage ring! At least that's what he would've done.
"What a fool." Eren rolled his eyes.
"Who is a fool, Elder Ren?" As soon as Eren finished speaking, he heard a charming voice coming from outside.
Shocked, he quickly hid the ring behind his back, cursing his luck. Just now, a guest had to arrive!
A woman came flying inside the room, dressed in a long black gown that wrapped around her figure tightly.
"Did someone offend, Elder Ren?" The woman's melodious voice fell in Eren's ears, almost charming him in an instant.
The woman standing before him looked like a real fairy. He had lived on earth for a long time, but he never remembered seeing someone so beautiful. Even the actresses from his world failed before this woman.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the time to appreciate the woman's beauty as he realized who that woman was.
There was only one person in the novel that matched her description. It was she who possessed devilish red eyes that looked like they could see through a person's soul.
Her pitch black hair flowed like a waterfall down her back, adding to her otherworldly aura. Just a single glance at her could make any man's heart start beating faster.
The novel did mention many things about this woman. It wasn't wrong to say that she was one of the important characters in the novel!
The novel mentioned that she was one of the worst demons in the Devil Sect.
She was someone who had killed her own personal Disciple. It was a disciple that she had taught since he was only three years old. She killed him, all because he lied to her once!
In the Hero Academy, the woman was known as the Blood Asura, who had wiped cities, killing anyone in her path.
It was said that whenever this woman was angry, rivers of blood started flowing. Even many Elders of the Devil Sect were scared of her! She was Zhang Wei!
Eren looked at the woman, his back already drenched in cold sweat as his eyes kept moving to her sharp nails that could rip him in half.
