Belphegor's Castle 1

Belphegor of Sloth.

Around five decades ago, when the entirety of Solaris changed with the emergence of dungeons, The Demons also descended. Mainly there were the Seven Demon King.

Along with the descend of seven Demon kings, to protect the humanity Ten Avatars also appeared. A huge battle happened for around a two years and after that all the 17 great figures disappeared without a trace.

Among the seven Demon Kings, 'Belphegor of Sloth' was here. And the quest was to seal his injured body.

'Bullsh*t. Is this still a F-Rank dungeon or even E-Rank dungeon?? Are these old geezers sending us to our deaths without the option of backing out.'

All sorts of negative thoughts were flying in. The situation was really fu**ed up.

"If you have read the quest, then let us begin dividing the teams in pairs of two kekek. . . " Gaby spoke disregarding our obvious resistance to complete the quest.

"Hey!! This is unfair. I want to quit. Please!!"

Garrett was the one who spoke up, there were also others who supported him and for once even I was with him.

"Don't make a fuss about it, the quest has already been granted and accepted by your system. So, stop shouting and let us do our work. Bunch of prats!" Alvan angrily shouted at Garrett and released his presence on all of us.

It was as if the air has been sucked from the surrounding and the blood has stopped moving inside my veins. The pressure was of this caliber. After what seem like a very long time, only 10 seconds passed. The pressure was now taken away.

"Huff. . .huf. . huhuh"

Everyone was catching their breaths.

"OK, I have come up with an idea. I will make the pair with one member from my dungeon and the other one from Alvan's. Now, already much time has passed, So All the Best!!"

Gaby clapped his hand twice.

~Clap.Clap~

Once again a teleportation happened. But this time, I was teleported to what it seems like a Green House for various plants.

There was a major problem though, I was paired with Amisha.

*********

Garrett's POV ____

After that shorty guy clapped his hands, I was suddenly teleported to this room.

It was a simple private room, and it seems that it was used by someone else previously. The room was very simple and plain without much furniture. There was just a bed, a closet and a table.

"Hmm, wait a second! Wasn't this quest supposed to be done in pairs. Why am I alone?? Don't tell me . . . . . . ."

Only then Garrett realized that he was all alone inside the room. There were five pieces of relic in the five places and we were only nine. So, one would be left all alone.

'I can't believe my luck. . . .Wasn't it supposed to be A. It's just bullsh*t!'

Garrett Blade was hailed as the future leader of all the nobility. He had tremendous potential in him according to all the influential people he trained with.

But things were not as simple as everyone thought. Garrett used to always act as an arrogant young master in front of the others but that was just his acting. In reality, he was probably the smartest guy among his age group on the entire planet.

All the achievements he achieved from his childhood were not because of his powers but because of his brain. All the actions he did had a grand reason behind it.

Even his affection for Somia was nothing but an act to gain something much more bigger.

Garrett knew that his current situation was not very good. He began to look around the room. And unexpectedly he found the holy grail under the bed.

It was a personal diary of the previous owner of the room. The diary was written in an unknown language, I suppose the demon language.

{ Tell the Meaning }

So the guy was a Demon and his name was Mardorng. The diary talked about various things such as his daily lifestyle as a servant of Belphegor, All the places where he kept his important belongings and also the location secret locker inside his room.

'This guy was quite dumb. . . .'

Even without the need to search anything more, I straight-up went to the spot where the secret locker was located. It was located under a particular tile on the floor. The tile was hollow from the inside and there were total of three items there.

I once again used my skill-

{ Tell The Meaning }

Only names of the items were displayed,

------Third wing of Seraph-------

-------Mardorg's Heart-----------

-------Rassik's Grimoire-----------

Looking at all the items present in front of me was driving me crazy! I was thinking of numbers of plans to use these items for my own benefit. Apart from the Seraph's wing, everything else was my property.

"Hahahahahha!!" I couldn't help but laugh at the manner the situation turned out.

"Now let's give everything for the quest, so that I can get out of here."

Before moving out, I decided to check my status once.

I went outside of the room with a satisfied smile and walked silently towards the main chamber of the castle, that is on the top floor.

*******

In some other place within the castle which seemed like a training ground of sorts, two young people were fighting a group of knights.

They were Elliott and Kale.

The battle had reached it's peak and Elliott decided to end the things.

{ Miracle Sword Art : Shattering of Glass } + { Wind Gale }

With his excellent swordsmanship and Kale's intelligent support with his long range attacks, the knights were defeated in no time.

One of the knight, had a unusual thing hanging around his neck. It had a single silver wing attached to it. And just by looking at the wing, both Elliott and Kale recognized the relic.

"We found it! We should hurry up and meet with everyone else in the main chamber." Kale said while chugging down one potion after another. This was the habit, Rey painstakingly put in every member of his party.

Elliott was also taken aback by this. Each potion was at least a high grade one and it costs a huge amount of sum.

For Elliott who prior to his coming in Grace was just a normal boy did not know much about the noble society. Though he had made friends with the biggest families, those people always conducted themselves according to Elliott's preference. This was not known by Elliott and he always thought that the nobles were just like common people. That's why Elliott always thought that Garrett was the problem child.

Even Kale came to realize this thing about Elliott.

In contrast to Elliott who was living in an other world created by his three friends, Kale has to face reality in his early childhood. He was a fourth generation young master of one of the biggest business conglomerate. And since his childhood, despite being the first grandson of the clan head, he had to desperately fight to preserve his position as a young master. His family was toxic to the core.

In the end, he was able to include himself in the only three grandchildren who will bear the Denise surname and appear before the world. The others cannot even use the surname and has to live all their lives working for the clan without going out in the world.

Though the successor's position was taken by his cousin sister, he was not greedy and was satisfied with being an official blade. His parents were not that happy. They wanted Kale to be the heir and started plotting many things against his sister and his other brother. They even tried to arrange an engagement for Kale with Natalie's older sister, who is the heir of the guild, but were rejected by Kale's grandmother. It was during this moment Kale met Natalie for the first time.

Since then they both got together and started dating each other. At first Kale was a gloomy person due to his parents pressure but after meeting with Natalie, he changed for the better and became a cheerful person. He also became very sensitive of others and improved his fighting skills more than his business skills. Kale also dealt with his parents discreetly and sent them out of the country. He was thoroughly enjoying his current life with his new friends until the current situation happened.

Elliott replied to Kale's plea,

"Yeah, Let's move quickly to Belphegor's chamber."
