Chapter 335: I Underestimated Him
"But love, the eye of nightmare is protected by ghosts, wraiths, predators, and more other creatures, are you sure it's safe to send him?"
Liliana asked worriedly, staring at Darren's back.
"If what Scarlet said is the truth, all those things aren't a match for the next king, right?" Darren answered her, and directed the last question to Michael.
"Why don't you get it yourself? Or are you scared?" Michael asked.
"I, Darren, Scared? You're funny, human."
Darren rested his jaw on his fist, and continued: "There's an issue in hand, If I leave, there will be no one to protect the city."
"Protect from what?" Michael was confused, he didn't see any enemies on the way towards the city, so what's there to protect?
"They're out there, hiding... Waiting for me to leave, then strike."
"Do you know where they're hiding?"
"Yes."
"Yes? Then why don't you take your forces, or dark... Whatever you called them to attack?"
"You ask a lot of questions for a human." Darren relaxed on his throne, staring at Michael.
"Well... I'm a Human, and I'll keep on asking, Do you know Hades, Moros, or Enchida?!"
"Stop yelling, Michael. And to your question, yes I know them... If you think these three are the only leaders, then you're wrong... They have more than six Leaders... Forget all this, Do you accept my quest?"
Michael thought for a moment, and looked up at him. "If they're truly after me, Won't I be chased after I leave?!"
"Is the self-proclaimed leader scared?" Darren smirked.
"Scared?" Michael scoffed. "You have no idea what I have been through... And why the hell will I be scared of creatures with wings."
His words trail off: 'Wait a second, if I kill these Angels or dark soldiers, I'll be able to rise their souls... They'll help me in the war... Hmm.'
He looked up at Darren. "Ok, I accept! Give me the location of the Eye."
"No need, just follow the way you came, get to the Forest and keep heading straight, you'll know, when you reach the center... And oh! The eye belong to me... You can take any other treasure you find."
Michael moved his gaze on everyone present, sighed, and vanished from the Hall.
The three women, all turned to Darren. Find more to read at M-V-L
"My Love, All our Commanders have tried, there's no way he'll succeed, let alone get the eye, let hope he takes some steps forward in the Forest."
"Let's see his progress." Darren waved his hand, and a mirror appeared in front them, showing Michael, who appeared in front of the Forest of nightmare.
"He's smart, this way, They won't be able to chase him." Darren nodded.
"What are those!!" Aria pointed above the forest.
The view moved to the sky, and they were all stunned seeing the things hovering above the Forest.
"Love?" The three turned to Darren, who smirked.
"Be calm, let's watch the show."

Michael moved his determined gaze around, smiled, and walked inside.
{Dead Soldiers detected above, Host.}
'How many?'
{Calculating....}
{Dead Soldiers: 100,000.}
'Wow, it seems I'm important. I need anyone that can fly, take care of those things, Leave No one Alive.'

**Huh?**
The Dead Soldiers looked up at the sky above them in confusion. They watched the sky tore open, and a huge vortex covering hundred of meters away opened.
**What is this?!**
Whoosh!!
Whoosh!!!
Before their eyes, countless souls flew out from the vortex, heading towards them with pure killing intent.
Their faces turned paled, seeing Seven huge Dragons flying outside, and started unleashing mayhem on their army.
**Attack!!**
They yelled, and all shot into the air, clashing with the souls.
BAM!
A Dead Soldiers cut a hawk into two halves. He froze seeing the halves joining back together.
**What the?**
SCREECH!!!
Whoosh!!
The Hawk shot towards him, this time with more speed.
**Shit!**
BAM!!!
Its talons collided on his armor, throwing him to the ground... The Dead Soldier watched as more than ten Hawks dive towards him.
**We can't hold on! These things are unkillable! And worse! They're everywhere!** A Dead Soldier flew back, dodging Reaper's claws.
"[Howl Of Terror]!"
AWOOOLL!!!!!
**Ahhh!!!!!**
The Soldiers in range exclaimed in Horror, hearing the howl. They instantly fell from the sky.
"Finish them."
With Reaper's command, Abyss, and more than ten thousands souls shot towards them. Cutting them down like weeds.

'Hey, can you please stop with these notifications? Put it on mute, or anything.'
{Ok, Host.}
Michael nodded, and continued walking deeper in the Forest... From time to time, the bodies of the dead soldiers dropped around him.

"This?!" Hazel and the Queens were stunned, even Darren was speechless, seeing the battle happening on the mirror.
BAM!
"My king! Two armies are fighting above the forest of nightmare, one being the Dead Soldie...."
Adol's word trailed off seeing the battle on the mirror.
"We know, Adol." Darren said, his gaze fixed on the mirror.
'Where did this army appear from? That... That's Void Affinity... But who created it? Michael didn't make any move, but it can't just appear out of nowhere.' Darren was momentarily confused.
"Who have such a powerful army?! They're killing the dead soldiers like flies?!" Aria was stunned.
"I think Michael summoned them."
They all turned their heads to Gia.
"How do you know he summoned them?" Liliana asked.
"When we were battling, He created that Vortex around me, not as big as this, but he created them... When you arrived, he stopped the attack." Gia explained.
"Hmm... A Human who can summon his own army anywhere he likes... What an advantage." Hazel said.
"Yeah, I think I underestimated him." Darren added, staring at the battle in the mirror.

{Host have reached the center of the Island.}
'You have become more useful in this realm, I like it.'
{You...!}
'Stop talking, Michael... I think we're in trouble.'
Drakon's voice sounded in his head.
Michael looked ahead of him, and was stunned in place.
"What the hell?!"
