After the world was destroyed again, I became a drifter

"We should be about the same here."

Yu Yiyu fell from the sky. There was a ruin here. It was said that it was once one of the royal family’s holiday resorts, but it was destroyed because of the previous demon incident. The royal family at that time thought that this place was unlucky and simply abandoned it and no longer used it.

The abandoned castle and the dilapidated walls covered with vines and creepers, it has to be said that this place looks like a place where undead monsters will appear.

"Wow... do we really have to be in a place like this? It feels so eerie..." Sylph looked refusal. She didn't want to come to a place like this at all.

"It's only places like this that have the atmosphere, and there just happens to be a basement. Let's go in and explore. The joyful ruins exploration begins~"

"Okay..."

However, there is actually not much to explore, except for some daily necessities that may have been left behind by homeless people, the important things must have been taken away by the people at that time.

Not to mention the books that record ancient magic. Regardless of whether those were taken away or not, even if they were not taken away, they would probably be burned, and nothing would be left.

Using wind magic to clear the gravel and vines on the road, Yu Yiyu led Sylph to find a way down. He had no interest in the rooms above the castle or the study, so only the basement was of some use to him.

"What exactly is a demon? I've never heard of it before." Sylph asked as she watched Yu Yiyu clearing the rubble around to find a path. Yu Yiyu had not answered her before, and now she wanted to know the answer.

"In addition to us humans and elemental elves like you, there are other races in this world, such as the elves who are blessed by magic. Of course, they are not magical elves, but actual elves, which are different from you."

"In other words, demons are also a race, similar to humans."

"Well... you're right to say that, but the existence of demons itself is very different from that of humans and elves." Yu Yiyu found a passage blocked by rocks. He should be able to reach the underground from here. He released an elf storm to weather away all the stones, and the blocked door was also broken.

"Demons live in a place called Hades that does not exist in this world. The class and strength of this race of creatures are determined at birth. From low to high, they are divided into four types: low-level demons, middle-level demons, high-level demons, and highest-level demons. The high-level demons will abuse the low-level demons, and the low-level demons will ravage the lower-level demons. It is an extremely jungle world."

"There is no life in the underworld except for demons. Therefore, for the demons who live in the underworld and feel bored forever, abusing the weak and playing with humans are what they are most interested in. All demons want to come to the human world, but unfortunately they can't do it."

"why?"

"Because of the existence of the Hades Gate, the underworld where the demons are located is separated from the human world. Only a small number of demons can partially descend into the human world through some special means. As long as the Hades Gate is not opened, they will never be able to appear in the human world in their complete form. However, if the demons really appear in the human world in their complete form, this world will be destroyed soon."

As for opening the gate to Hades, a special ritual is required to allow the evil tree (Qliphoth) to descend to the human world. The evil tree is divided into seven layers, and the demons live in these seven layers. There are a total of ten highest demons, and the strongest one is Lucifer, a demon who uses gravity magic. Once he completely descends into the human world, the human world will be destroyed.

Sylph reached out and patted Yu Yiyu's face and said, "What are you thinking about if you want to touch something so dangerous? Has your brain become so stupid?"

Yu Yiyu stretched out his hand to push Sylph away and let her fly aside while saying, "Go one way or the other. Although it's dangerous, demons can't appear in the human world in their strongest form. So after they are summoned, they can be manipulated using special rituals. By defeating the demon in battle, they can make a contract and make the demon obey their commands completely. This is basically what demon-possessed people do."

"Demon-possessed person, I've been hearing you talk about it, but is it really real?" Sylph, who stopped attacking Yu Yiyu, sat on his shoulder and asked.

"Yes, you have seen it."

"Eh? Who is that!?"

"Asta, but strictly speaking he is not a demon possessed person yet, he just can use the power of the demon."

“What? Why didn’t you tell me something so important before?!”

"No, Asta will definitely be fine. In the Clover Kingdom, three leaves of a four-leaf clover represent honesty, love, and luck. The fourth leaf represents good fortune, and the fifth leaf houses the devil."

"Hiss..." Sylph took a breath of cold air. Speaking of which, Asta's spellbook does have five leaves. His anti-magic power is actually the power of the devil. Are all devils so powerful?

"We're here. Okay, it's time to prepare the spell. Sylph, do you have the confidence to defeat the demon with me?"

"Hehe, of course, I am one of the four great elves. He is just a demon. I will beat him to a pulp!" She waved her tiny fist, very confidently. Now she understood why Yu Yiyu wanted to train the Holy Land. It was all for the purpose of fighting the demons.

"That's good. The only magic that can cause damage to demons, besides Hades magic, is the sanctuary magic of elves." Of course, Hades magic can also be effective against demons, but generally speaking, Hades magic and Elf magic are easier to explain.

Yu Yiyu, holding a magic stone for lighting, came to the basement. There was dust everywhere around him, which could be cleared away by wind magic and water magic. Then he began to draw the magic circle of summoning and contract spells that he had modified.

There can't be any accidents, so it has to be done properly, so Yu Yiyu concentrated on painting on the ground using the paint that he had prepared in advance and stored magic power.

Black paint representing the evil tree, an inverted pentagram, symbols of the moon and stars, symbols representing corruption...all the symbols belonging to demonology were painted on the ground by him, and it took him two hours just to finish the painting.

Yu Yiyu drew magic circles on the entire floor of the basement to summon demons. Now all the preparations were complete. All that was left was to summon the demon to perform the ritual. That was all.
