Chapter 217 - It Must Be That

Celia had seen the whole scene from afar, these fools who had laughed at Basile, the sky which had turned black above the demon army, the demons trapped in the ground, and finally their cries of pain and despair when black flames as high as them had appeared from this black ground.

Celia was not worried about Basile, Aiden had already explained to her that whenever Basile had to use his power to fight, he would end up falling asleep and not remembering anything when he would wake up.

Celia was more worried about Gabin, it was out of the question that one of her children was traumatized again, so she had sent Anthony back to the dimension, who was too weak to fight anyway, with Sky and had entrusted Gabin to them.

Anaya then asked her curiously : "Can Basile manage to control the black flames already ?"

Celia had been surprised too, she thought that after the appearance of the black flames, this army of demons would have been reduced to dust, but it seemed that her son only preyed on some of them, and simply terrorized the others.

She said to her : "Yes he can control them there is no doubt about it, I think that Basile can discern the evil in the others, in my opinion he killed those who were a threat to us, and terrorizes the others for them to become Caleb's subordinates of their own accord."

Anaya smiled and said admiringly : "Downright impressive, so smart as his mother !"

Celia chuckled and said : "Luckily he won't remember anything when he will wake up."

Something was troubling her though so she asked Anaya to have her opinion : "My baby wife, why doesn't Basile get rid of those who laughed at him yet, they should have been the first to die, right ?"

Anaya laughed and said : "You're wrong, I think he's waiting for someone else to avenge his honor, look !"

Aiden took out the sword of Chaos and while keeping Basile in his arms he easily got rid of these demons.

The Sword of Chaos was getting stronger and stronger, and more it was absorbing darkness energy, more it was powerful, that's sword really deserved to be called a legendary weapon.

When he was done he joined his brother and said to him : "It should be fine now, those who remain will all beg you to take them on Inferno, Basile has just eliminated those who were a threat."

Caleb nodded and said : "Ask Basile to release the others, we still have to evacuate them all to Inferno, but thanks to the help of these demons, the others who live close by will follow easily, it shouldn't take too long from now on."

Aiden whispered in Basile's ear : "If you're done sorting them out, release them, you said it yourself time is running out, we can't waste anymore time here."

Basile released the demons, the black flames disappeared and the sky and the ground got back to normal.

Basile touched his cheek once again and Aiden's heart began to beat harder and faster he turned to him, but this time his expectations was too high, he only heard his voice in his mind 'My love, I have to rest, warn my mother and use the magic pills we made, we will do more of them with Gabin'.

Aiden wanted to tell him to wait but his little eyes were already starting to close, so he said tenderly to him : "My little one, I will do as you want, don't worry, and I will be there when you will wake up so sleep well."

As Caleb had imagined the demons who had escaped Basile's slaughter and Aiden's fury begged him to take them with him.

Then, Caleb asked them to lead the way where all the demons were gathered and that they would all leave together towards Inferno soon after.

So they arrived in a city where only demons lived and the demons who had barely escaped death convinced everyone to be evacuated to Inferno.

While all this was being organized, Jeremy and Yann were preparing enough red papers to be able to send them all back to Inferno.

Aiden took advantage of seeing that Celia and Anaya were resting in a corner to go talk to them.

Only, before he could open his mouth to start explaining the situation to them Celia said to him in a threatening tone : "Aiden, can I know what you are playing with my two year old son when you are in this room ..."

He saw Anaya move her lips and he understood 'You're so dead', well, he already knew that Celia will be pissed off so he decided to change the subject right away, he said to her : "Basile has a message for you, for both of you, do you want to hear it ?"

Celia immediately became serious again, the last time Basile had had a message for her, he had asked her to strengthen the seals that held this demon god prisoner.

Celia looked at Anaya and she too had a worried look, she turned back to look at Aiden and said : "Pass me Basile first, and just sat down with us, we will listen what you have to tell us, seen your face that must not be a good news."

Aiden gave Basile back to Celia, and sat down with them, he told them everything that Basile had told him and Anaya was the first to say : "I don't understand, according to Clara and Anna, the seven golden dragon hearts should be enough to kill that demon god ..."

Celia said to her : "My baby wife, we should take into account what Basile has just revealed to us, after all, he is a demon god too, he probably knows things that Clara and Anna did not know."

She then said to Aiden : "He told you he had a plan but it was still too early to reveal it ... Does that mean he wants me to become a level twelve mage before he reveals it to us ?"

Aiden shook his head helplessly and said : "I don't know, but he's your son so he must have the same thought path as you, if you think it's related to your level, then it's time for the both you to get stronger."

'Getting stronger', Celia thought, it was relatively easy if given the time for it, but for a while now it has been hard to go more than a few days without having to fight.

'Getting stronger', if Basile had told them it was urgent, it was because he had surely give her a way to do so, and the only thing he had apparently insisted on were the magic pills that he had done with Gabin.

Celia exclaimed out loud : "It must be that, it can only be that."
