“Here! Done!” Zelenia shouted and fell on her back. She just finished the circle of summoning that Xiodar requested. It occupied centre of the throne room. “Bleed on it to work…Wait!” She lifted up and ran to the doors. Her head stuck out of behind the door. “Now you can do it!”

“It won’t blow up, right?” Bob asked her worried.

Zelenia pointed at Xiodar. “Everything he touches has high chance of blowing up!”

“Confirmed.” Jael added. Bob ran to Zelenia as soon as he heard it.

Xiodar just stood up from his throne. “Why you are so worried? Have more faith in me!”

“"WE DON'T RESPAWN LIKE CERTAIN SOMEONE!!!”” Shouts sounded from behind the exit.

Demon lord is already standing in front of the circle. “You are overreacting. Look at Jael! He isn’t afraid.”

“Yhm.”

“Jael.”

“Yes?”

“Why are you standing behind me?”

“…No reason.”

Xiodar just ignored it and made a wound in his palm. The purple blood drop fell on the circle… It flashed with an entire pallet of colours.

…..

“…It blew up already?” Bob asked.

“I think… but there wasn’t any sound…” Zelenia wondered. “Hey! If you died say something!”

“…I don’t think that is how it works…”

“Then go check yourself!”

“Hell no!”

“Be a man!” She kicked him into the room.

“OUCH!” Bob landed on his face then he stood up. “…There is nothing.”

Zelenia kicked the doors in anger. “What do you mean noth…!?” There was a circular hole in the floor. Xiodar and Jael weren’t there. “Huh…”

“What do you mean ‘Huh’?! What happened here?!”

Zelenia just walked towards the throne. “I guess that too much mana caused rip between dimensions.” She lifted the egg that Xiodar left on the throne and tossed aside. “They are either dead or in another world.” She laid on the throne.

“So which one?”

“Which one makes Xiodar do more trouble to someone?”

“…Second one.”

“There you have it.”

Bob just gave up on worrying. But when he was about to walk away… *CRACK* Silence filled the room. *CRACK* Both demons looked at the egg to see large cracks on it. “You pissed it off.”

Zelenia started to sweat. “Maybe it will be cute pet?” *CRACK* Two red lights looking from the inside of the egg caused her to shiver. “I miss him already…”

*********

“Ugh…My eyes…” Jael murmured as the sight slowly came back. The first thing he saw was desolate land with a lot of dead flora. Here and there laid bones of some monsters and sun was hidden behind dark clouds covering entire sky.

But the thing he was focused on was the fact that he isn’t touching the ground and something is holding his arms tightly. He twisted his head to look behind. “Did you wanted to use me as a shield?”

Xiodar, who was holding him, smiled. “Maybe. Wasn’t it what you wanted?”

“Fair enough.”

“Well.” Demon lord tossed his meat shield aside. “Where the f*ck we are?”

Jael stood up and looked around. “I don’t recognize this place. Any ideas?”

“Another world? I recognize that kind of feeling.”

“How the hell summoning circle turned into sending one?”

“How the hell some lines on the ground can summon something?”

“Eeeeee…” Jael mind turned blank. This question was like ‘why water is wet?’ to him. “…eeee potato. What now?”

“We look for the trouble or the trouble looks for us.” As he said it, the noise of something horse-like and cloud of dust appeared on the horizon. “Speaking of.”

As they get closer two demons could recognize them as 20 or so riders. The horses were black, covered in scales with horns like a bull. The persons on them were demons as well. With buff muscles in leather armours barely covering anything, two pairs of horns growing from the sides to the front and skin in sheds from brown to red.

As they get close, the biggest one pointed his large sword at Xiodar. “Who are you?”

Xiodar looked at him. “Who the f*ck are you?”

“I asked first!”

“I asked second.”

“You think you are funny?!”

“You think I’m first.”

“You think I’m so stupid to fall for that!”

“I think you are second.”

Demon just grinned his teeth and pointed at Jael. “Who are you?”

Jael just shook his head. “Why you are asking?”

“There was a giant flash and you two appeared! What are you doing here!”

Vampire turned to the Xiodar. “What are we doing here?”

“I’m making fun of him and you are ruining the fun.”

Jael turned back to the demon. “I don’t know.”

“ATTACK!!!” Demon roared.

Ten seconds later.

“So…” Xiodar placed his arm on the demon’s shoulder and sits beside him. “You will start to talk?”

“Yeah.” Jael did the same on the other side. “I recommend you do.”

Demon looked around with his only eye left. His entire group was totally massacred. Only he is left, sitting on the corpse of his own mount, with one horn broken and thrusted into his stomach. Now two monsters who did it are sitting beside him while smiling from ear to ear.

This is going to be long day…

Journey log of an idiot who let himself be pushed to the valley full of monsters.

Day 3.

Yesterday I managed to win at cost of broken leg, arm and two teeth. I writing it today because I fought all night. Well… I really need some rest.

Day 4.

I woke up after sleeping almost entire day. To my surprise my arm and leg are almost healed. They only hurt a little. Now I only need to find something to eat. Sadly I can’t eat demons.

They explained it back in the palace. They aren’t poisonous… they just don’t digest at all…

Day 6.

At night I was attacked by something like a panther. Only it had scales and could turn invisible. Well it was easier to brawl with it than a bear.

Day 7.

Reuel still doesn’t want to evolve. I already beaten another bear! So some goblins + bear were enough for a first time but bear + ninja panther isn’t enough now?!

Day 8.

I’m stuck at the tree.

While wandering around I found pack of wolfs. They are black and can be completely silent. I could deal with one, but six?! And they are now waiting for me to climb down!

At last I had chosen tree with fruits. But I was eating fruits for a week now!...Huh… Did Reuel always looked like a steak?

Day 10.

Okay I might overdone it. After two days on the tree I got mad. I merged with Reuel, ripped off the biggest branch and send two wolves on out while still on the tree. Then jumped down caught one by a tail and used it as a fail.

…At last Reuel evolved!
