DEVIANT

413 Grim

Upon entering the new world, Danny was greeted with a dreadful sight. It seems like the entire world around him was covered in fog with dead trees leathered everywhere. It looked like a forest once bustling with life but has become nothing more than a shadow of its old self.

“With the gate of the underworld here, it’s not too shocking that something like this would happen” Danny concluded.

Life and death are two things that coexist but are always far apart like night and day. There is no way anything with life can survive for so long in the presence of this gate.

In fact, Danny was sure if he was far weaker, this gate would have consumed his soul already. Fortunately, he is a true God and a sin at that.

He wasn’t someone that can be killed easily and even if the gate wanted to harm him. It couldn’t on its own will.

He was currently sharing the status of a demon Lord like Hades of the underworld. How can something belonging to him harm him?

“Eve said when I find the one apple, I would be able to tell. Outside that fact, she imprinted a bold image on my mind. Even if I see him running through the first naked now, I would notice him” Danny complained as he spoke about the last part.

It was like the image of his target was imprinted in his mind.

“Sol Ark…” Danny said as he rubbed his temple with a deep frown.

.....

He knew his target and his name. He knew where he resides but he didn’t know the way to that place. He was just dumped in a location without the necessary information.

“Don’t bother calling his name… You will never get to him” a feminine voice rang from a distance and Danny looked ahead and frowned as he saw a figure walking towards him from the thick mist.

It was a lady with an hourglass figure and slightly pale skin. She looked ravaging and stunning but also exuded this air of wildness like a prehistoric beast.

Dangerous!

Danny commented in his mind but showed no emotions on his face. As the figure approached he casually raised his hand and a bright light shone.

[Infinity core: Creation]

A silver mask formed in his hand and he casually put it on to cover his face while he waited for the lady to slowly walk into his range of sight.

Ding!

[Name: ?àt’el]

[Race: Grim]

[Type: Alpha grim]

Ding!

[WARNING: Target possesses divine power within it. Its true ability cannot be revealed by the system]

Danny looked at this and frowned. As expected only someone abnormally powerful for a mortal is capable of giving him such a feeling.

His indifferent gaze shifted to the figure and a cold sneer was revealed within the mask.

“A Grim? I have never heard of you” Danny said calmly as he could clearly tell this lady wasn’t human but she looked like a human.

Ding!

[Grims are said to be a race of beings produced with parts of the apple of knowledge, allowing them to attain the power of deities but in a mortal body. They are said to be the strongest beings in the mortal realm. They are the ones tasked with the duty of protecting the gate of the underworld and preventing demons from crossing through]

Seeing this Danny frowned at this as he looked at the lady ahead and still couldn’t make much out of her figure due to the fog. His eyes flashed with cruelty as he realized who he was standing against was no normal person.

He was sure Eve wouldn’t send him here unless this was the only place she could send him.

She had no reason to want him dead, especially since he was helping.

“These worlds are truly troublesome” Danny lamented bitterly but luckily the lady couldn’t see his face.

“The last demon that came through that gate managed to slip through my grasp thanks to the element of surprise, but now it will be different” the alpha grim sneered and Danny smiled.

“Ha! Do you dare compare me to a mere demon? What happened? Life got boring?” Danny exploded with killing intent as he heard this but the lady remained unphased. Her eyes were like daggers on Danny as if she could see through all its secrets.

“Grims are made specifically to kill greedy gods like yourself. We are deities in the mortal realm. Free from the world’s restrictions. I can’t say the same for you. In my eyes, demon lords are mere demons and gods are no different from mere angels. They all bleed the same” the lady said as she moved her right hand and Danny could see something like claws growing rapidly.

“Hmph! You have been misinformed. What you are going against right now had become a god killer even before he became a god!” Danny sneered as he stood confidently and gazed at the foe viciously.

He refused to believe he should be afraid of these so-called God killers. If the deities this is enough of a countermeasure to keep the target safe then they must be badly mistaken.

“Ignorance…. Let me show you” the alpha grim said copy and took a step forward.

Territory!

Buzzz!

Danny frowned as he watched the enemy declare this world his territory. At this moment the feeling he got was the same as deities watching over territories of various levels. It meant the owner is given a home advantage and is able to take advantage of the world which was even currently suppressing Danny.

In the past, it just felt like the world was passively suppressing him but now it felt like the cold eyes of the world fell on him.

World power: restrain!

Danny felt even more invisible chains wrap all over his body, slowly and carefully. Danny felt his power dropping rapidly and his strength shattering. This world was going to consume him in one go and reduce him to a level he won’t be able to fight back!
