Chapter 660 Park’s Plans

Time- 15:38

Location- Sky Blossom City, Burger Empire.

”Park, are you sure a devil was summoned? It has been more than an hour. There is no sign of a Devil.” Corey asked Park as she decided to head back to the warehouse after seeing Anna breaking the array and entering the isolated space, the Burger Empire Block. 

”I am two hundred percent sure. I cannot mistake that feeling. However, it was only for a second. A devil was indeed summoned in the city’s outskirts, near the Dungeon highway.” Park vouched that she felt a Devil being summoned outside the city near the dungeons. Park was puzzled about what happened to the Devil. If it had descended, why wasn’t it wreaking havoc as they are known for? Was it hiding? What can make a devil opt to hide? 

What Park did not know is that she felt the Devil’s presence only for a second because as soon as it was summoned, Anna trapped it in her bloodline field card, Unparalleled Arena. And slew the devil in there. Therefore she did not feel the presence of the devil once again. 

”I believe you. So it’s a good thing that I did not recklessly run towards the dungeon area, heeding your request. If we had, then we would be facing a devil right now. Not to mention our title demon core, if the devil had sensed it, we would have become the devil’s first target after its descent on this plane.” Corey said Casually as she walked away from the Burger Empire block. 

After sensing the Dark realm connected to this world, Corey hurried to Burger Empire to check out what was going on, but on her way, she found that Corey Park could feel the Dark realm connect to this world near the dungeon fields outside the city. Since the connection to the dark realm was stronger outside the city, Park insisted on going there, but Corey Bright disagreed with her because they did not know who was behind these incidents. If it were someone dangerous and stronger, their lives would be at risk. 

Therefore Corey did not want to head out of the city and instead chose a simpler way, that is, to guide toward the Burger Empire. Where the connection to the dark realm is weaker compared to the connection to the dark realm outside the city, this meant the enemies near the burger empire were weaker compared to the ones outside the city. And if anything were to go wrong, there were always city authorities for help inside the city, but outside, she would have zero assistance and would have to face the stronger enemy. 

So heading towards the Burger empire to check on the connection of this world to the dark realm and to know the people behind it was the safest bet. Therefore no matter how much Park pleaded and assured her about ther stealth ability, Corey did not bulge. 

”Since you insisted and came all the way here, why didn’t you go help Wyatt with demons? ” Corey Park asked Bright why she did not make a move to help her boss, who was being targeted by thousands of sinister demons. 

”Obviously, because I wanted to make a stunning entrance when his life was in danger, but who knew that bastard’s pet grew that strong in a few days. And that demon card apprentice was stupid for falling for his act. I mean, I could tell he was faking it from out here, but she couldn’t when she was standing right next to him. That bitch must have been dropped on her head as a child for her to be so dumb to fall for his act.” Corey planned to time her entrance so that she could rescue her boss at his desperate hour, but to her shock, her boss had grown so strong that he did not require her help. As a result, Corey was in a foul mood and blamed the demon cultist for being too weak. 

”That girl, we have to find her. She has a devil’s bone. Even though that devil Skull seems too old and overused, still, it belongs to a full-fledged devil, the Swarm Devil Broodnun. If you get that, then your accession to the devil realm will be easier and faster. Not to mention our connection to the dark realm will increase. And we can Summon little Beam with little repercussions to pay. Awe, I miss that little thing.” Corey Park seemed to be eyeing the Devil Skull in possession of Aba Davies. 

The reasons for that couldn’t be more obvious. She wanted to make use of it to reach the devil realm and return to the dark realms to exact her vengeance on her old boss. But she appeared not to know the location of Aba Davies. This meant just watching Aba Davies’s battle from afar, she discovered that the cloaked figures that kept sacrificing themselves for the devil summoning ritual were mere clones being remotely controlled. 

”Swarm Devil Broodnun? Do you know her?” Seeing Corey Park could tell who the devil skull belonged to just by looking at it, Corey Bright thought Park was acquainted with the Swarm Devil Broodnun personally back in the dark realms. 

”I knew her, but she didn’t know me. After all, she was one of the pinnacle beings of the Dark Realm, and back then, I was just a foot soldier, a nobody. When I was starting to gain popularity, she had entered the darkness for eternal slumber. Seeing how her skull is in this realm, it seems Broodnun lost her life in this world and had to enter darkness for recovery.” Corey Park explained how Broodnun had been defeated and had to enter the darkness to recover by the time she managed to obtain her tittle demon core. 

”Whoa! This means there are people stronger than the devil in this world, huh? Then we will have to get that devil skull from that girl no matter the cost and fast.”
