Chapter 252: War

And then, only Solarius, Cassie, and Velmora were left.

Solarius looked at Cassie for a moment before his body suddenly transformed into pure light. In the next instant, he vanished from his position and headed towards the headquarters of the Church.

Lucas then looked at Audrey and said,

"Audrey, let’s leave now. We also have to search the entire Continent and find some trace of him."

Audrey replied calmly,

"Brother, you go first. I have something to discuss with Cassie. I will meet you later at home."

Lucas simply nodded and didn’t say anything else. He already knew about the friendship between Cassie and his sister, so he didn’t find it unusual that Audrey wanted to have a private conversation with Cassie.

He then teleported away together with the Spatial Element Grandmaster Rank.

After Lucas left, only Cassie and Audrey remained there.

....

Southern Sea.

Ravena was walking in circles with an uneasy expression on her face. She had been waiting for some time, and the longer she waited, the more impatient she became.

Then, suddenly, a ripple appeared in the surrounding space.

Ravena instantly stopped walking and looked towards the spatial ripple.

A moment later, Asher stepped out of it.

He was using a completely new vessel, with a face Raveena had never seen before. However, she immediately knew that it was Asher.

Before she could say anything, Asher looked at her and then glanced around.

There were corpses of several sea beasts scattered nearby.

Asher looked at them for a moment before speaking in a slightly proud tone,

"Wow, you really caught a lot of fish. You have quite a talent for fishing. You could easily make a living as a fisherwoman."

Ravena’s expression had already been agitated when Asher appeared.

She had been waiting to ask him why he had done what he did with her clone, where he had gone for so long, and what exactly had happened at the facility.

But before she could even ask a single question, he suddenly started talking about fishing.

Her expression became completely blank.

She stared at him in disbelief, almost as if she couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

After a few seconds, she finally recovered from her disbelief and opened her mouth.

"What were yo—"

But before she could finish, Asher continued in a slightly sad tone,

"But you didn’t even leave any fish for me. You sucked all the blood from the meat, and now they won’t even taste g—"

Ravena’s blank expression returned.

Then her eye twitched slightly.

She finally lost her patience and interrupted him in a loud, angry voice before he could continue his nonsense.

"Just shut up with this!"

Asher stopped talking and looked at her calmly.

Ravena glared at him before continuing,

"And tell me why you took my clone to the Void Reaper out of all places! And what about the other Demons who were with you at the facility but disappeared at the end? What did you do with them?"

She took a breath before continuing with even more questions.

"And where is the one who came last time and took my clone with him? Did he get killed by the Void Reaper? Is that madman now coming here right now after finding out about me?"

There was a clear trace of fear in Ravena’s voice when she mentioned the Void Reaper.

She looked at Asher seriously before adding,

"I don’t want to be cut into thousands of pieces again. It really doesn’t feel good when that happens."

After that, she just kept rambling about how she should leave, but even if she escaped, the Void Reaper would probably still find her. She kept thinking aloud about where she should go, what she should do, and whether there was anywhere she could hide from him.

Asher watched her rambling for a while. He tried calling her once.

"Hey Big Noble Mosquito."

She completely ignored him and continued rambling to herself without even looking at him.

’Are even Noble Demons this crazy? Wait... is she even a Noble, or did I just get scammed?’

Asher stared at her for a few more seconds before deciding that simply calling her wasn’t going to work. He moved closer to her.

Then, without saying anything, he summoned a large hand made entirely from mana. The enormous mana hand appeared above Raveena and suddenly punched her directly in the face.

"Bang!"

Raveena was sent crashing onto the ground. Only after being hit and falling onto the ground did she finally come back to her senses.

She quickly looked towards Asher with a confused expression. Before she could say anything, Asher calmly spoke, "Don’t worry. No one is coming here. I hardly think the Void Reaper would even bother coming after a little mosquito like you."

Raveena’s expression changed slightly. Asher continued, "As for my other Demons’ vessels, they simply attacked other parts of the Continent. They also shared everything that was happening at that facility where you were trapped, so that the major figures across the Continent could know what had happened there."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "They also made sure everyone knew that you had escaped from that place. But don’t worry. No one is coming after you right now. They don’t know where you are."

Raveena’s emotions went through a complete rollercoaster. At first, she became terrified after realizing that Asher had basically announced her escape to the major forces of the entire Continent. But then she felt relieved when she heard that none of them actually knew her current location.

Raveena sighed in relief. "So I am safe. That’s good."

She finally relaxed slightly before remembering something else. "But what about the guy who came with you? Your vessel, or whatever you call it. What happened to him?"

She looked at Asher with curiosity. "Did he also cut himself with his own sword because it was too sharp?"

Asher looked at her and then said with a smile, "Nah, he didn’t use that sword since it would have been futile."

Raveena nodded and then asked, "So, what happened then?"

Asher simply smiled and took a juice from his subspace before saying in a playful tone, "Nothing much. He just announced war on the entire human force and then died at the hands of Solarius."
