The Tale of the Devil Sword

Kylo once again entered inside the Heaven Devourer sword.

He then flew and slashed at the void and created a fissure. Seeing this, without wasting anymore time Kylo entered the crack.

Avery meanwhile was watching this 'new scene' interestingly.

Seeing Kylo disappear she became serious and started absorbing mana from the different color stones.

Few seconds later a crack appeared just behind where Nigel was standing.

Because Kylo did not had any malicious intent, Nigel was a second late to notice the crack but one would say as expected of the.... most cautious supremo.

Without wasting another second, Nigel retreated few metres back and simultaneously created a ball of energy.

Though he did not transform into his another form, that power was enough to threaten Kylo even with the help of the perverted cave.

Kylo also learnt his lesson previously when he visited Avery, so the moment he exited the fissure he came out of the sword.

Nigel, who was just about to attack was stunned.

After all even though he knew Kylo was a sword spirit but after interacting with him it was hard to remember it.

And the reason Nigel knew about it was because Avery told him everything about Kylo when she went to fetch him. (A/N1)

"...Why would you come as a sword?"

Nigel asked in a weird tone.

[As master, as pet.]

Kylo secretly rolled his eyes when he remembered that was the same question Avery asked him.

He then ignored the little red snake and looked towards the second formation.

But he was not in a hurry. Even though he was almost sure that this was similar to the first formation he could not let his guard down.

Holding his 'body' in his right hand, he started advancing cautiously.

Twenty metres...

Eighteen metres...

Fifteen metres...

Twelve metres...

Ten metres...

The moment he reached ten metres away from the formation, it started glowing.

[Same, as expected.]

Nigel was simply watching it with just a little surprise on his face.

Because even he could feel the power behind the formation.

This array, even though not life threatening, was able to injure him gravely if it hit him.

[Mainly because I am still injured.]

Nigel sighed lightly while thinking about his 'injury'.

It might seem like Nigel was working for Kylo, but he was also searching for any possible treasures that could heal, even if lightly.

Kylo 'felt' it. That was why he was also checking his integrity.

And he could say, he was more than pleased. After all there was a plant which could lighten the poison.

At that point Nigel was filled with greed. It happened when Kylo's now blonde maid was awakening her bloodline.

But at the end Nigel kept his promise. He stored them in his Spatial Ring.

Now, even though the devil does not completely believe him, he sure has started seeing him in favorable light.

Had Nigel consumed the plant, though Kylo would have not said anything to the snake, he would have surely sucked every bit of value Nigel had in the future, even if that killed Nigel.

Now Kylo slowly, like previously, held his sword in front of the array.

And as expected the formation lit up. The formation then suddenly disappeared once again.

It was the same as before. The formation once again settled itself deep inside Kylo's soul.

Upon inspection Kylo could see two formation side by side inside his soul.

Kylo shook his head to shake his worries. He was mainly waiting for what he came for.

Slowly Qi started gathering around the place Kylo was standing at. And his lips curled up into a smile.
