The Death Core Tree

" Beast Realm, Beast Realm is very dangerous, I heard from someone, that so many legendary magical beasts are living there, so you have to be careful and you need some help, "

Rudy was putting an iron piece on the furnace and checking the temperature of that iron piece and he was adding some coals to increase the temperature of the furnace.

" No, Mr. Rudy, I have a spirit guide, and she will help me to hunt a most powerful magical beast, "

" ( Ralpina? where did you go? I need some help, oh I think she went missing like last time, ) "

Rudy was very surprised because Sam having a spirit.

" Wow you have a female spirit, that's so amazing, you're a very lucky person, so does she have a spirit host? "

Rudy took a heated iron from the furnace and he was hitting that iron with a powerful hammer, Sam didn't know anything about this dimension, he was trapped here for a week.

" Spirit host? what is that? "

" Spirits are very rare, and they don't have a permanent body, they are like a cloud of smoke, so they use other living things' body as a host, so, is your spirit have a host? "

" What? no, I don't think she doesn't have any spirit host, she's just a normal spirit, "

Rudy stopped his hammering work and looked at Sam

" So, she doesn't have a spirit host, then how do you sure that your spirit can help you to hunt a powerful magical beast? "

" No, I don't need any help, I am a noble demon, and I consumed a hell flame crystal, so I have enough power to hunt a beast, and I only trust myself, "

" So, you think you have enough power to kill a beast, you're just like your grandpa, he was also like you, "

" What are you saying? my grandpa is a farmer, when did he try to hunt a beast? "

" Don't you know that your grandfather was the first demon who was created by the mother of demons and he called by the name of the first demon king Rusty Leviathan. "

Rudy stood up and went near Sam, but Sam was very confused.

" Sam, your grandfather was the prime demon, that's why he was very powerful than the other demons, he was the first one who destroys the gates of heaven realm and fought with gods for demons rights. Thanks to him, now demons have freedom. "

Sam was speeches at that time,

" My grandpa was the first demon king and his name was Rusty Leviathan, but what was happened to him? he was a first demon king but now he is a farmer. "

" Betrayal Sam, he was betrayed by his own brothers and expelled from his throne, but he didn't fight back at that time, I don't know the reason, I think maybe he didn't want to kill his brothers, "

" ( No, Mr. Rudy, I know why he didn't want to fight again, he saw World War II through the dimensional gates, it was so hard on his mind that he hated fighting and killing. He said he had never seen a demon with a human heart before but he didn't understand that he was the first demon, who has a kind heart. I love you, grandpa, and I will conquer that throne for you, it's my promise. )

" Your grandpa was also very confident on his first beast hunt, but he didn't realise the beast's powers, that's why he was failed on his first hunt, so you're not enough Sam, because the t hunting is a very difficult thing, first you have to choose the best beast for you, then you need someone to divert that beast, finally, you have to catch it and kill It. "

" I thought I can kill a best, if my grandpa didn't succeed on his first hunt, I have to be careful with the magical beasts, so I need some of your guidance to find a spirit host for Ralpina. "

Rudy was continuing to forge a weapon,

" No, I can't help you at this time, this is your job to find a host for her, not mine so you have to do this alone, don't worry you can find the spirit hosts everywhere, but you have to look much harder. Here take this spirit stone with you, it will help you to seal a spirit, then hand it over to your spirit, "

Rudy took a circle-shaped stone and gave it to Sam, that stone was black and a hypnotic circle,

" Take it with you and start your search in that treasure forest, you will find the most powerful spirit hosts animals in there, don't worry, "

Rudy was pointing that spirit stone's centre

" That circle shape will attract the most powerful spirit host, and you can identify the power level with the circle's glowing, so you will get a chance to seal it, "

Why are you calling that treasure forest, are any treasures in there?.

" Yeah, so much treasure like gold, silver coins, powerful weapons, magical books, dresses, etc, "

" Wow, I'm so lucky, I want to take some treasures, can I? "

" I wish, you can have them, but that Death Core Tree will kill you because all of the treasures are under the protection of that Death Core Tree. So don't even think about it "

" Death Core Tree, who is that? is he a magical beast or a demon? then I need his soul "

" Don't be fool Sam, it is the King of all trees, and the guardian of that forest, it is very dangerous, it has the deadliest thrones in his vines, and it will kill you with a single shot, so you can't kill it alone, you will need help from your spirit guide, "

" There is no way to change my decision, if I need to kill that Death Core Tree, I will. My grandpa said if you kill a beast or animal, absorb that spirit, then you will become more powerful. So I need that Death Core Tree's soul. "

" Okay, I can't stop you from doing your things but It is my duty to warn you, so best of luck, I hope you will find the best spirit host and kill that Death Core Tree, "

" Thank you, I will see you in an hour, "

Sam slowly closed his eyes and thought about that treasure forest, Rudy was looking at Sam, suddenly Sam vanished in front of Rudy's mere eyes, Sam teleported into that treasure forest, and he took out that spirit attracting stone in his hand and closed his eyes once again.

Suddenly he heard so many unimaginable sounds, So Sam kept walk forward in the forest, while he was holding that stone in his hand,

Sam saw that stone was started to glow, Sam looked at the tree, there was a big blackbird was sitting on the branches, he saw the stone's centre, that circle didn't fully glowing, so that was not enough for his spirit, the so Sam was moving forward,

Suddenly, Sam saw ash colour cat was resting under the tree's shade, so he looked at the stone's circle, but that was also not enough,

" Sam, don't give up at this time, you need a spirit host for Ralpina, she always vanishing at the important time, I don't know, what's going on with Ralpina? but today she will get a new body, "

Sam was walking at that time, suddenly that stone's circle was fully glowing, so he understood, the powerful spirit host is very near to him. So he was very careful at that time, suddenly a red bird was flying towards him. Sam was waiting for the right moment.

But before Sam made his move, the stone was already absorb that bird into itself. Sam was very happy because he sealed a most powerful spirit host without wasting the energy,

" Yes, it was too easy, I didn't do anything, the stone was sealed the spirit host inside itself.

Ralpina, are you still here? "

Sam has closed his eyes and we g to his mind world, but his mind was completely empty, but suddenly an ash smoke appeared in front of him.

" Ralpina, is that you? "

" What happened Sam, is anything important? do you need my help? "

" Where did you go? though you were gone. "

" I have some family problem that's why I was busy with My father, "

" So did you solve the problems completely, "

" But, it just temporarily work, so why did you call me, Is anything serious, "

" I have a lot of things to tell you but l can't tell you, not here, I have something for you, a gift, I hope you will accept it. Here to take this. "

Ralpina looked at the stone, she was very shocked,

" Wait, is that a spirit attracking stone?

" Yes, take it "

That spirit stone was lying in the mid-air and the smoke was going inside that stone, after that, red waves were coming out of that stone.

Suddenly, that stone was broken into little pieces

The broken stones were again joined together into a circular shaped stone and a red bird came into that stone and that was flying towards him and sat on his shoulder. That red bird started to speak with Sam.

" Thank you so much, you did a great job today, because of you, now I have a spirit host. "

" Now you can always be with me, we can solve the problem as a team, so let's go, we need to finish another work. "

" What work Sam? "

" Hunting the Death Core Tree and absorb its soul, then I can collect some treasures from this forest, "

" Are you mad, don't you know, that tree is the oldest tree in this world, and it is the king of the trees, it's a suicide attempt, "

" I already heard everything from Mr.Rudy, and you will help me to hunt that Death Core Tree, and that's my wish (Ah, one done, one more to go ) "

" Alright, I'll help you but you have to be more careful, so do you have any plan for the hunt, "

" Yes, I have "

" What is that? "

" We go there, you distract that Death Core Tree and I will kill it, that's it. "

" Wow, I never heard of a stupid plan like this, do you have any other plans. "

" No, but I can ask for help from my grandpa, "

Sam bit his finger, and drop a blood drop in the land and thought about his Grandpa Rusty. Suddenly Rusty's illusion came appeared in front of Sam,

" Sam, open your eyes and look, your grandpa is here. "

Sam opened his eyes and looked at his grandpa, Grandpa Rusty's illusion was standing in front of him,

" Sam, what happened? do you need any help from me? "

" Grandpa, I know your secret, so you can't hide it anymore, "

" Sam, that was my past, and I never recall it, "

How did you forget your past, that betrayal, how?

" ( What are they talk about, I don't understand ) Sam, what's happening, what did he hide from you? "

" You will know Ralpina, just give us some space "

Grandpa Rusty saw Sam was talking to a red bird, and he understood, that the red bird was Sam's spirit.

" So you're Ralphina, Sam's spirit guide, and you have a host, it's nice to meet you, "

Sam's face was transforming into a demon, he can't control his emotions, that pendant was not working, because his emotions are too powerful than that pendent.

" ( Oh, his emotions are too powerful, how did I forget that humans emotions are too powerful, I have to do something, ) "

Sam, you have to understand, I hated the fight against my brothers, that's why I left my throne, what if I was the first demon king, I loved my family, that why I never thought about the return.

" What? Sam's grandpa was the first demon king, "

" Not only a demon king, Ralph, but he was also the first demon who was created by the mother of demons, "

" So you're the one who fought against the Heavenly Realm, now I understand how he cut through the magical sword, he was the legendary demon king Rusty.., "

" Rusty Leviathan, please accept my apologies grandpa, I was very angry, please forgive me.

Don't worry grandpa, I will reclaim that throne and your pride as the first demon king, "

" No, Sam, you are my successor, so you have the right to sit on that throne. "

Sam was crying at the time and he was trying to hug but Rusty was an illusion so Sam can't hug.

" Don't worry Sam, I'm always with you, now tell me why did you call me? I can't stay in this illusion form for more than an hour, so you have to tell me the reason. "

" Grandpa, we're in the Treasure Frost. "

While Sam was talking, Grandpa Rusty was looking at the forest, it was very beautiful.

" Do you know anything about the Death Core Tree? "

" So you're trying to hunt that Death Core Tree and you need information from me, I think you don't need my help, I know you can kill it, so think, you have that weapon to kill that Deat Core Tree, "

" What kind of help is that Sam? "

" Yes, I know, how to kill that Death Core Tree grandpa, why didn't I think before, thanks for your help grandpa. "

" You're welcome Sam, but don't forget to absorb that Death Core Tree's soul, it will give you more strength and you can manipulate all kinds of trees as you wish. "

" But how can I find that tree? "

" You can find it through the fragrance, "

" Fragrance "

" Yes, the fragrance of illusions, if you smell it, you will see illusions, I know you can find it, but when you fought against the Death Core Tree, close your eyes and use your other senses, it will help you to avoid illusions, but don't forget, the illusions are fake so don't trust them, "

Grandpa Rusty suddenly vanished, Sam understood that an hour was finished, So Sam was walking forward and Ralphina was flying in the sky to find the location,

Sam kept looking at the fragrance smell, suddenly Sam heard Ralpina's voice and she was flying towards him.

" What? did you find the location of that Death Core Tree? "

" Yeah, "

" Where "

" I saw the biggest tree on that way, you have to go further on that way, then you will see a big tree in the centre of this forest "

I don't want to waste my time here, let's go,

Sam closed his eyes and thought about the centre of the treasure forest, Sam and the red bird Ralpina were teleported to the centre of the forest, Sam saw a majestic view of a huge tree in front of him, and he saw the tree had a large fragrant red flower.

" Ralpina, I think we have to destroy that flower, because it will be a wall for that Death Core Tree, so I need a plan, "

Sam was discussing a plan with Ralphina, but the Death Core Tree had already realized their presence but they did not realize that, so that Death Core Tree considered this as a perfect opportunity and began to attack his main weapon, the gaint red flower started to release the illusion fragrant in the air. The fragrant was spread in the air and broke into their nostrils.

" Ralpina, what's happening to me, why is this place looks like horrible, what's going on here? Wait look at that tree, it looks like a demon, "

" Sam, help me, or this demon will eat me "

Because the fragrant went into Sam's nostrils, he started to lose his senses little by little. Because he inhaled that fragrance the forest looked terrible to him. That Death Core Tree in front of him looked like a huge monster.

" Wait, is that Jack? Ralpina look, it's my brother, Jack"

The illusion that his brother was trapped in the hands of the demon tree. When he saw his brother he thought of saving him.

" Wait, Jack, I'm coming for you "

" Come faster, I don't want to lose you this time Sam, please come faster. "

Realizing that his brother was in danger, he forgot everything his grandfather had said. At that moment the red bird realized that everything happening here was an illusion and began to tell him.

" No, Sam, don't forget what your grandpa said about this. it's all an illusion, so don't do anything stupid. "

Suddenly the memory of his grandfather came to him and he realized that everything that was happening here, was fake.

" I have to control myself, "

Sam took a piece of cloth and tied his eyes,

" Ralpina, now I can't see anything, so I need your help, I know how to kill that Death Core Tree, so I need you to guide the way. "

" But what are you going to do? "

" I'm going to burn it down with my hell flame, and absorb his soul "

" But you can't go near to him, then how do you kill him with the hell flame? "

Sam, tool his Bloody Destroyer and focused his hell flame into that Bloody Destroyer, Suddenly that sword started to burning

" What is this Sam? "

" I merged the hell flame and Bloody Destroyer so now this Hell Flaming Bloody Destroyer will end that Death Core Tree's life, "

Sam, are you sure that your idea will work?

" Even if it is a king of all trees, it is still a tree, so the fire can burn the trees, that's why I choose this idea, I'm sure that this will work 100 percent, so don't worry about anything, let's hunt it down. "

" Okay, I think the distance between you and that Death Core Tree is nearly 100 meters, so I go there and distract it, and you attack him from back, "

" No, think about a better one, because I already said this plan but you said this plan was stupid so I need more than a distraction, "

Suddenly, that Jack's illusion was screaming for help

" Sam, help me, it's killing me, Sam I hate you, you're the worst brother I hate you, Sam, "

Sam was very angry, his emotions were at the edge, his body started to transform, his eyes were turned in bloody red, his body was expanding, his horns were very sharp and his teeth were growing bigger, he was roaring in the forest like a mighty Lion, his roar was echoing in the whole frost.

Rudy heard that roaring sound very clear, it was very powerful

" Sam, I hope you will kill that Death Core Tree and collect all the treasure. "

The Frost was shaking, the animals were running away from the centre. Sam was fully transformed into a demon, The dark red hell flame was burning between his two horns.

He was standing in front of the Death Core Tree, his eyes were furious.

" You've made the mistake, you shouldn't have done in your lifetime, Jack was my brother, and you used his illusion to kill me. So You've made the hat you shouldn't have done in your lifetime I am, I wrote your mistake in your grave, so get ready to meet the death. "
