Chapter 132 - Demoness

The old woman just gave him a smile before pulling out three scrolls where the information he was looking for was written.

The information wasn't located on the internet at all and was located inside a memory crystal that Grandma Thea could control at will. She's capable of controlling this crystal and transfer them to the enchanted scrolls.

"Please wait for a few minutes… I already asked someone to bring the two Rank-A Artifacts. You can join me here in the meantime… My tea might help you to clear your mind and relax for a bit… I can tell that you just came out of the Arcane World, right?" The old woman said as she gestured for Cyril to have a seat.

Cyril decided to accept her offer. Having a cup of tea with her might be a good idea. He's indeed a bit tired after that exploration.

Grandma Thea smiled after Cyril followed her suggestion as she stood up to heat up the pot of tea.

Cyril no longer noticed this as he focused on reading the information about the three mythical creatures.

He stayed in this office for almost an hour before he decided to leave and return home. As for the Artifacts, he carried it with him and will store them in his Dimensional Storage Space once he's out of the building.

"Come visit me if you have some free time…"

"I will, Grandma! Thank you!"

Cyril's gratitude was genuine. He indeed found it relaxing in that room… Perhaps it's because of the tea or due to the breeze array set up within the place.

Nevertheless, he's also quite satisfied with the information he found. He found clues written on those scrolls and he confirmed that the Traoland Archipelago most likely possesses an Arcane World with Dragons!

On the other hand, his country, the Republic of Veprus, has a few guilds where Fairies can be seen.

These guilds seemed to own several mid-class to high-class Arcane Worlds where their traces was found. Unfortunately, there is no specific Arcane World that was only meant for the Fairies or something like a Fairy World itself. However, that should be enough…

Anyway, one of these guilds is actually the Reckless Twin Blades!

The large guild is the result of the recent merger of the two second-class guilds making them a powerful first-class guild within the country.

Aside from that, this guild should have a couple of S-Rank Awakened already!

Cyril had previously guessed that they have actually merged because of the two recently Awakened S-Ranks…

They were most likely being groomed secretly and only once they've become truly strong, will they decide to announce their existence.

'Hmm… I guess I should check it out… It's still difficult to find the Elven King and Queen… Perhaps I can get lucky with the Fairies…'

Cyril mused as he returned home.

However, as he had gotten near to the subdivision, he found again the weird lady who stopped him before.

When he previously met her, she was wearing a mask so he only recognized her skin, eyes, and hair. But this time, the woman has finally removed her mask.

Cyril wouldn't make a mistake about it. She's definitely the same person at that time.

'What now?' Cyril thought to himself.

He suspected that this woman is a demoness based on his previous conversation with Xagan. He thought that she was just attracted to Xagan's presence at that time and had almost forgotten about her already.

'Should I ignore her? Ugh… I don't think so.'

Cyril noticed that the woman is already approaching him.

This time, he waited for her to speak while he secretly activated his Aura. He covered his body with a thick layer of a folded Aura so even if this woman decided to sneak an attack, he would have plenty of time to recover.

'This woman… Her aura is a bit different… Has she weakened or something?' Cyril guessed as she got closer.

She has glistening blue eyes just like before but now, Cyril could see the tribal marks or tattoo on her cheeks going to her neck…

This was previously covered by her mask.

"You… Tell me, are you a demon or not? I can smell it, it had gotten stronger…" The woman asked with a confused tone.

"If I am, what about it? What do you want?" Cyril didn't immediately deny her as he was really curious about this woman. She had never appeared in his previous life or created any newsworthy actions. She either died early or was just too weak to act within this world.

The woman sighed as she decided to tell her story. She's getting desperate as time goes by.

"We need help… If you managed to get out of your Prison World and even get stronger here, tell us the secret. How come you're not weakening? How did you escape? Ugh… I don't think that our world will last that long. Please, help us!"

The woman said but her tone doesn't seem to be that desperate. Perhaps because of her pride or just her natural tone.

'This… Get out of the Prison World?'

Cyril heard her clearly but he remained silent for a while…

'The Prison World must be the Arcane World… Ugh… Isn't this bad?'

Seeing that Cyril remained silent, the woman continued.

"I'm Selma Vestroth! Our Clan will pay you 300 demon cores… If you're uninterested in that, just tell us what you want and we will swear to our names to accomplish it for you!"

The demoness added. The 300 demon cores were definitely extremely high… This is already their collection of treasures for the past thousands of years.

"Hold on… I would like to clear things up… First, you mentioned that I had gotten stronger? How'd you know that?"

Cyril asked.

'Is it because I made several requests to Xagan after we've met? Did he get stronger after that? Ugh. I don't think that Xagan had become stronger. He already mentioned this before…' He mused.

However, Selma's explanation made it clear.

"I'm actually confused as well… Your demonic scent had gotten stronger. However, it is completely different. It feels like there's another demon within you. It's weird…"

"Oh!"

This time, Cyril finally understood what's going on… The demoness didn't clearly sense Xagan at all, she probably smelled Amaris' scent!
