Chapter 44: Caught By The Demons

In the unknown dimension, Nox had fled into a nearby bush, keeping a watchful eye on the strange demonic-looking beings. There were many of them, each possessing a monstrous appearance. Some had multiple eyes, while others had multiple limbs.

From any angle, they were clearly not human, yet they weren't mere beasts either. They communicated with each other just like humans, and they were killing monsters and collecting their beast cores, which were then counted by smaller, demonic-looking creatures.

"They even wield weapons…are they demons?" Nox wondered. He kept his emotions in check and decided to observe them further. Jumping out could mean getting hacked to death, so gathering information from the shadows was his safest bet.

For the past 30 minutes, Nox silently observed. He realized that this was a forest-type dimensional rift—a place that appeared to be both dying and alive simultaneously.
