"What are you after?" one of the Devils finally asked, voicing the suspicion that had been weighing on them all.
Vlad did not make them wait. "I am a Master of the Law of Space. What I need are treasures, books, or phenomena that I can study—things that will help me deepen my mastery."
As he spoke, a meaningful light flickered in his eyes. He could not openly search for a portal leading to the Zanis Homeworld—that would only draw suspicion. Instead, he asked for anything related to the Law of Space. A gateway strong enough to connect Hell to the vast cosmos would inevitably generate strange anomalies, distortions, or spatial phenomena. By gathering reports and knowledge of such occurrences across the Third Layer, he hoped to narrow the possibilities and uncover the portal's true location.
