She had proven herself to be a brave and talented fighter, using her unique magic of creating and manipulating black holes. She could use them to attack, defend, or teleport, making her a versatile and unpredictable opponent.
She had also earned the respect and admiration of the Demon Lord, who had noticed her skills and potential. He had invited her to join him and his generals on a journey to explore the uncharted territories, where they would face various wonders and dangers, including the Infected - twisted abominations that were once Demons but had been corrupted by a plague that spread across the land.
She had accepted his offer, feeling honored and curious. She also met Leo, who was also a soldier in the army. He was a skilled fighter and a loyal companion, but he was also secretly in love with Luna and felt jealous of the Demon Lord.
They met at the border, where the Demon Lord greeted Luna with a warm smile and a nod. He introduced her to his generals, who were all different kinds of demons, such as vampires, werewolves, succubi, and more. They were all respectful and friendly to Luna, but some of them also looked at her with curiosity and lust. Luna felt a mix of awe and fear as she saw the diversity and power of the Demon army.
They set off on their journey, riding on horses, carriages, and flying beasts. They traveled through mountains, deserts, and lava lands, encountering various wonders and dangers along the way. They also fought against the Infected, who attacked them in hordes, trying to infect them with their bites and claws. Luna was amazed by the Demon Lord's bravery and skill, as he led his troops into battle, slaying the Infected with his sword and magic. She also proved herself to be a capable fighter, using her black hole magic to attack and teleport, surprising and overwhelming her enemies. Leo was always by her side, watching over her and helping her when needed.
As they traveled, Luna and the Demon Lord learned more about each other, sharing stories, jokes, and secrets. They also developed a mutual respect and admiration, as well as a friendship. Luna felt happy and free, enjoying the thrill of the adventure. She also learned more about the Demon Lord's past, his goals, and his dreams. He told her that he wanted to unite the world under his rule and bring peace and prosperity to all.

Luna was shocked by his big dreams, but she also knew how he felt herself. She liked him as a friend and a leader, his expertise in war and city management showing the longer they traveled together. She wondered if she could leave everything behind and join him in his mission. She also wondered how Leo would feel. The Demon Lord asked her to leave the Capital and join his army which came as a shock to Luna. She asked the Demon Lord for some time to think, and he agreed, saying that he would respect her decision, whatever it was.
The next day, they reached the end of their journey, a large and ancient city that was rumored to be the origin of the plague that created the Infected. The city was surrounded by a massive wall and had a huge gate that was sealed with magic. The Demon Lord said that he had a key that could open the gate and that he wanted to enter the city and find out its secrets. He said that he believed that there was a cure for the plague inside and that he wanted to use it to heal the world. He also said that he wanted Luna to come with him and that he would show her something amazing.
Luna agreed, feeling curious and hopeful. She also felt that this was the moment that would decide her fate and that she had to make a choice. She looked at Leo, who looked worried and sad, and hugged him, thanking him for everything. She then followed the Demon Lord, who took out a strange device that he said was the key. He activated it, and the gate opened, revealing a dark and ominous passage.
They entered the city, leaving behind their army and their guard. They walked through the streets, which were empty and silent, except for the occasional growl or scream of an Infected. They saw buildings that were crumbling and decaying and signs of violence and destruction. They also saw statues and murals that depicted strange and alien beings, and symbols and writings that they could not understand. The Demon Lord said that the city was once the home of an ancient civilization, that was far more advanced and powerful than any other. He said that they had created the plague as a weapon to destroy humanity, but that it had backfired and destroyed them. He said that he wanted to learn from their mistakes and use their knowledge for good.
They reached the center of the city, where there was a large and imposing tower. The Demon Lord said that this was where the cure was and that they had to climb to the top. He said that he had a map that showed the way and that they had to hurry before the gate closed and trapped them inside. He also said that they had to be careful, as there were traps and dangers along the way.
