Chapter 138: Chapter 138 – In the Underworld

The Underworld was totally different from the Oni Village and Dragon King Castle.

The underworld was a desolate and ominous realm, shrouded in a perpetual darkness that seemed to suffocate any glimmer of hope or light. The sky above was a sickly shade of dark green as if the very air was tainted by the malevolence or poison that permeated this place.

Amidst this landscape stood a city, its architecture reminiscent of the 19th century. Ornate buildings with intricate details over the cobblestone streets cast long shadows that seemed to stretch out into the city.

At the heart of the city stood a grand and majestic castle, its towering spires reaching toward the sky in defiance of the green sky that surrounded it.

"Welcome to the Underworld."

The Devil, Meryl Dantalion, greeted them once again as they stepped out of the portal.
