Back at the sealed forest.
A demon girl stood in front of the black abyysal cage. She run her hand across the black mass of mana.
She could feel the rage of the imprisoned creature. She leaned forward onto the dome, and hugged it.
"Shhhhh. I know it hurts to be caged, I know how you feel. I'm sorry I can't help you right now, but I will when I can," she spoke these comforting words.
The rage inside began to subside. She let out a tiny smile as her small figure reflected off of the black dome.
She smiled at her frail reaction. Her body radiated a life time of pain and suffering. She lifted her side her to reveal her covered eye.
Soon we'll be free and together forever.
She then frowned, her face went cold as she turned away and left.

Shin and Bael made it out of the forest. They made it onto a road. They followed it for a long time until they reached another village.
They were greeted by some guards at the gate.
"Hello there friends. What's the purpose of your visit?" One of the guards asked as he walked up to Bael.
Bael looked up at the guard as he rummaged his bag. He found what he was looking for, two identity cards.
"Just here for a rest. We were actually passing by," Bael said as he got up.
The guard glanced at the two identity card. He went to another guard and showed them the cards.
They started chatting to each other. Then the guard walked back to the pair.
"I see you got a human with you. What is he? A slave or something?" The guard asked.
Bael sighed. His face cold and indifferent. He expected that something like this would happen eventually.
"No he is my student. We are heading to the demon God's shrine for the blessing to be king", Bael answered half heartedly.
He was ready to fight if needed. The guard didn't question it and returned their cards. They walked into the village,rented a room in an inn and collapsed.

Shin opened his eyes. He was in a clear field up on the mountains. He looked behind him to see that familiar large black temple of obsidian.
"Hey black. Pay attention to your opponent", Shin turned his head to see a fist flying towards his face.
He managed to dodge it in time, but another came. Shin swiftly dodge that one too and returned with his own.
He missed and the figure hit him hard, knocking him flat on his ass. Shin looked up, he saw a hand extend to him.
"Hey black. What's up?" The man asked as he hoisted him up.
When Shin got a close look at him he realized he that it was the dragon God. He casually let go of his hand and put his arm around him.
"Nothing red. Nothing at all", Shin blurted out without realizing.
The dragon God smiled at him.

Shin woke up a bit exhausted. He stretched his body, the sound of bones cracking resonated in the room.
Shin looked outside and saw it was already morning. He got up and went down to the dinner hall and found Bael sitting down with a group of man.
He walked up to them. Bael looked up at him.
"Morning your majesty. I was just telling them about the danger we faced yesterday", Bael said as he stood up and shook hands with the man.
They had breakfast and returned to their room and fell asleep again.
