Chapter 293: A Challenge

"I overheard papa talk with the priests once. He said that there's a new Demon King in the Lost Continent, and that he began getting active eight years ago." Elizabeth replied. "Since then, Cults that obey demons also became more active, some Demonic Towers also began opening their gates and pouring demons inside, while some cults that had large sizes began exploring the inside of the towers and finding demonic treasures… The entire world might be soon fall into turmoil… Thinking about it always gets me scared."

"Wha…" Erika muttered in shock. "That sucks! What will we do now?!"

"Calm down, we had been mostly living alright for eight years here." I said. "The war is mostly happening to the north of the continent, that's hundreds of kilometers away, you know? If they're handling things just fine, we still have time…" I tried to reassure my friends that things will be okay.
