336 Valtair
Anastasia was sitting on the top of the Black Castle looking at the dark sky.
The sky in the shadow realm was pitch black. There were no clouds, stars, moon or anything else in the sky of the shadow realm.
The entire shadow realm was shrouded in a dark aura without a single particle of light, giving the people watching it a feeling of loneliness and despair.
"It's been over thirty days since the Master reestablished his connection with the Shadow Realm. I wonder when he will return?" Anastasia muttered to herself looking at the black sky.
Thud! Thud! Rat-tat-tat!
Suddenly Anastasia heard some sounds and a annoyed expression appeared on her face.
"These bastards are attacking the entrance to the Shadow Realm like it's their neighbour's door" Anastasia waved her hand and a screen appeared before her showing some demons attacking on the entrance portal of the Shadow Realm.
Killing intent flashed in her eyes as she watched the demons attack the portal. She felt like she was seeing some thugs constantly knocking at her door. If not for the fact that she cannot leave the shadow realm she would have already destroyed their existence.
"Looks like it is time to teach these fools a lesson" Anastasia said as she glanced at the crow faced demon standing at the back.
She wasn't worried about the demons who were constantly attacking the portal, but she knew Malphasar is not a normal demon.
"They were calling him Commander Malphasar, he seems to be someone from the 'Corvallis' race of the demons," Anastasia said while rubbing her chin.
Corvallis is a race of demons who looks like crows. Demons of Corvallis race don't have high talent and they are a mid level race among demons.
Even though Malphasar was also a demon from Corvallis' race, he was still able to become one of the five commanders of Baphomet which shows how excellent his talent is.
After pondering for some time Anastasia finally made up her mind.
She had enough of these fools who are knocking at the door of her master's realm.
She disappeared from the top of the castle and came to a place which was filled with thousands of black round balls.
Coming there she looked around a bit using her spiritual senses and soon came across a black ball.
"It is finally time to throw out this nuisance," she said with an evil smile on her face.
She touched the black ball and a black energy seeped out of her hand slowly corroding the black ball.
The black ball was the size of an adult human and it took Anastasia about five minutes to corrode half of it
Woosh -!
Just as she successfully corroded half of it, the rest of the black ball burst open covering the surrounding area around it in a purple smoke.
Anastasia was not surprised by this and just waved her hand blowing away the purple smoke.
When the smoke disappeared, a three-meter-tall muscular-looking black humanoid monster came into view of Anastasia.
The monster looked like a shadow undead, it had a large round shaped head and most of its body was like a muscular looking human. The body of the monster was completely black in colour and looked as if it was full of cracks. The cracks on its black body were representing its identity as a lava demon.
The members of the lava demon race are very powerful even among other demon races, but they are usually treated like slaves because of their low numbers. There are no more than one thousand lava demons alive in the entire world.
"Waky Waky Valtair it is time to rise and shine" Anastasia said in a cheerful voice sounding like a gentle big sister next door. The earlier evil smile on her face already disappeared.
Just as Anastasia spoke, two big eyes burning with purple flames opened on the big round face of Valtair.
As he opened his eyes a momentary look of confusion passed through his eyes. He turned his large head around and looked at Anastasia.
Seeing the smiling face of Anastasia Valtair was stunned for two whole seconds.
After two seconds he turned around and closed his eyes once again.
"I must be dreaming, that evil woman will never smile like this" Valtair said ready to go into deep slumber once again.
Hearing Valtair, Anastasia almost lost her gentle smile, but she took a deep breath to calm down because currently, she needs his help to deal with Malphasar.
"Wake up Valtair, this is no time to sleep. Some demons are trying to forcefully enter the shadow realm. Will you let them in when our master is not here?" Anastasia said in an insistent voice.
Just as she finished speaking, a red aura burst forth from Valtair's body.
Anastasia smiled inwardly seeing this and waved her hand stopping the red aura from affecting the other black balls.
"Who is daring enough to invade my master's home when he is not here?" Valtair roared out loud as the temperature around him started to increase.
'He is indeed a lava demon with a hot brain' Anastasia thought to herself seeing angry Valtair.
She waved her hand and the screen showing demons attacking on the portal of the shadow realm appeared in front of him.
Seeing demons attacking on the portal of the shadow realm Valtair's purple eyes flashed with intense killing intent.
"If these bastards want to die so badly I will full fill their wish," Valtair said and looked at Anastasia, but seeing she still had a gentle smile on her face he was once again stunned for two seconds.
"Are you all right, wicked woman?" he asked, feeling that she had lost her mind after not seeing her master for a long time.
Suddenly Valtair felt the surrounding temperature started to drop, he glanced at Anastasia, and seeing her cold eyes he felt all invisible hairs on his body stand up to no end.
"I will soak in the shadow energy pool for a few days before dealing with them. My body won't be able to handle my power if I don't do this" Valtair said after seeing Anastasia's cold eyes and quickly ran away from there.
Anastasia just snorted seeing him running away and looked at the screen showing demons attacking on the shadow realm's portal.
"It would not be difficult for him to deal with these demons, after all, he was once revered throughout the world as the Sovereign Of The Flames," Anastasia muttered and she also disappeared from there.
