Chapter 110 - Magic Genius

After searching for quite some time, Nathan finally found something.

On a part of the mountain that has a denser amount of trees than any other part, three heat signatures were detected.

"The drone detected a heat signature that matched a human this time. I should try to take a look at it."

Nathan controlled the drone to go in that direction.

There he found three men sitting under a tree kneeling with their hands against others in a praying position.

In front of them is a small altar with a statue above it of a humanoid creature with horns, wings, and tail.

The first moment that Nathan laid eyes on that statue, he immediately sensed that evilness contained inside of it and frowned.

"Is that a statue of a Demon?"

Looking at the three men wearing the same outfit while 'praying piously' to the demon they worship.

Anyone who sees this can immediately tell that these three are demon worshippers, what's more Nathan, right?.

"Looks like I really found the place, huh." He said while relaxing on his seat at the villa.

His lips arched as a smile slowly appeared.

"Now I just have to follow them to see if I can get to where Sebas' daughter is placed."

Just like that, Nathan ate some snacks while watching the three men sit there and pray devotedly to the demon.

He also used appraisal on the three. At first he did it with a mindset of just trying to take a look if it would work since the things he was seeing were just being transmitted from a camera.

Then he realized that he can even use his

they are almost like normal people in physique as well as in spirit but the atrocities that they committed are even worse than any criminal Nathan knows!

Just when he was starting to get bored, the demon worshippers started to get up from the ground and seemed to be going somewhere.

Seeing that, Nathan was immediately energized and focused again on the drone.

Following the three demon worshippers, the drone moved unnoticed in the mountain even though it was flying near the three people.

After walking for a while, Nathan soon saw something from a distance away.

Two huge stone boulders facing each other with the middle of the two looking like an entrance.

If one looks at it carefully, one will see that behind the two stone boulders is a cave entrance that was lit by torches hanging on the walls.

Nathan's eyes lit up, "Is that their hideout?"

"Maybe I will find Sebas' daughter in there." He muttered, "Okay people, hurry up, hurry up!"

Just like what he thought, the three demon worshippers or cultists headed towards that cave hidden behind the two large boulders.

When they got inside, Nathan finally got a clear view of the cave.

"This is… creepy." Nathan muttered.

He said that because, almost every part of the walls inside the cave is covered in text written in blood.

Some are even freshly dripping down the walls, obviously newly written.

There are also pictures of the Demon on the statue that he saw from before, pasted on the clean sides of the walls.

After seeing all this, Nathan's face twisted in disgust.

"This damn cultist! Is that human blood?" 

Shaking his head, Nathan calmed himself down.

"I should stick to what I need to do." He said, "My priority now is saving Sebas' daughter. That's why I need to hurry up and find her!"

Thinking of that, Nathan stopped minding the blood covered walls and continued moving around the cave.

Since the three men already served their purpose, Nathan did not bother following them and just started exploring by himself.

Because of the fast speed of the drone as well as its camouflage capability, he was able to go everywhere at a high speed without any cultists noticing him at all.

He used appraisal on almost everyone that he passed by into to see the basic power structure of the people in this place.

Basically, almost everyone that he met only has an average of 2 to 3 levels of physique and spirit.

At first he thought that this place would have people who have strength like Elder Nunoy that he had fought before.

But now he realized that people with that kind of strength would probably not be common because of several factors.

He stopped thinking about it and continued looking for Sebas' daughter.

After fumbling about here and there for almost an hour, Nathan finally found a cell in a basement the cultists made inside the cave.

And inside that cell is a girl crying in a corner wearing white dirty clothes, her hair is covered in mud and looks so dry.

In her eyes, despair is the only thing that shows and cannot be hidden.

She sat there listlessly like a broken doll.

Looking at her state, Nathan can't help but frown and worry.

"I wonder if she can move. By the way she's acting, it looks like her mind already broke."

Nathan sighed at the sight of such a pitiful girl that looked traumatized.

"But still, I'm glad that she's still alive even though it's been a month since she was captured. It looks like they took care of their sacrifice, huh." He said,

"Let's take a look at her."

He casted an appraisal at the girl and information about her appeared in his eyes.
