"Die! Die! Die! Die! Die!" He kept creating more and more spears as he kept mumbling to himself.
"Has he lost it?" I questioned as I dodged his attacks.
He was chewing his fingers, while the grimoire kept levitating in front of him. His eyes filled with despair. He looked at me as if I was his biggest threat.
"Morpheus… Be serious," Nvida spoke as she removed the entire floor below him, but he still stood there motionless there in the space.
The absence of the ground wasn't a problem for him as he levitated in his original position.
I, too, attacked him using chains from all sides, but it didn't work.
[Dark fire of hell!!]
I used this spell, but it, too, passed through him while his spear almost grazed me.
"Just what is he… I can't sense him or touch him, but his attacks are the real deal," Nvida was getting tensed more than the time was passing. While it was frustrating as it was, not being able to understand was scary as well.
"How Dare you touch what's mine?!!! HOW DARE YOU?!!! HOW DARE YOU?!!!" HOW DARE YOU?!!!" He shouted as the number, power and speed of those spears doubled. I had to use [Frenzy] in order to dodge them.
'The behaviors remind me either of a crazy fan, or a psychotic stalker or perhaps both. Perhaps he was looking at Nvida for a while?' I tried finding what I could.
"Morpheus…" Nvida seemed to lose her calmness. I looked around to see the forest being destroyed more than the attacks continued.
'Seems like this was the maximum we can go based on logic,' I thought as I looked at that guy throwing spears at me.
"Well. This run was worth it in its own way. Redoing it doesn't seem so bad either," I thought as I looked at Nvida again.
'Maybe I could do better with her next time?' This thought made my little brother throb a little.
I chuckled as I let go of my disguise, making both the Dark Mage and Nvida look at me. Their eyes focused for a while before they realized who I was.
"You!!!" the Dark Mage's eyes widened.
"A… Morpheus… Adam??" Nvida wasn't any different either.
"Now to find what the actual fuck is going on," I smiled before I looked at him.
[Flicker of Hope!]
[Colors of the Gods!]
[Mana Surge!]
[Hell's Flower: Silent Lotus!]
[One way Out!]
[Light Chain!]
[Dark Chain!]

Using a dozen skills at once, I tried figuring out where exactly the problem was. From my guess, it was related to the Array, but I just wanted to make sure of it.
The skill [Flicker of Hope] gave me a single task this time.
[Learn in depth about the Reverse Arrays!]
"So it really is connected to this one, huh?" I muttered as I focused fire around that guy without pausing.
"Wait! Wait! Wait! Our master wants to see you!! Don't do it!" The mage, who finally calmed down, looked at me with an even more panicked expression.
"Adam!! The World Order wants to meet you as well!!!!!" Shouted Nvida revealing her identity as she looked at me with a complexed expression.
"The World Order, huh? What's your rank in it?" I asked Nvida. She looked at me with hesitation before answering,"3rd Order."
"3rd, huh? I guess then it must be Veeran or Amusa who put to work here… No wonder you didn't tell Trisha the complete truth," I spoke, making her pause her steps. Her eyes widened in shock as she looked at me.
I then turned to that guy as I asked," and you must be… from the Dark Society? Who is your master…. Hirdal?"
I made a guess there as there were 12 people who rule the dark Society. Hmmm… I didn't explain about the World Order or the Dark Society, did I?
For now, just remember that Dark Society is a group of 12 Dark Mages who excel in their fields. The World Order is the same, except they are 36 in number and are neutral, unlike the Dark Society.
The World Order maintains the balance of all things, while the Dark Society wants to bring back the first Demon Lord from hell.
As for the greater details, it would be better to leave it for the future.
"How do you know?!!" Shook from his core. The dark mage looked at me with fear now. His eyes were concentrated on me while I looked at the system.
There were still 10 seconds before [Mana Surge] finishes.
'Though I already got the answer on how to defeat him,' I thought before asking the next question that made me curious about the entire situation.
"What was your purpose for coming here? Or perhaps you were here for a long time?" I asked that guy as he still stood there silently before answering,
"We were following the Sister Witches in order to take the necklace. And we're also here to find more about you. Morpheus, to be precise. We wanted to see if you can be recruited or not."
"And why did you change your mind? Not gonna test me anymore?" I asked as I looked at him, with [Mana Surge] over and I let go of all my chains and other attacks.
To them, it probably seems like I was just listening to them without further bloodshed.
"I wouldn't dare to hurt someone who could kill a demigod. Our Master, Hirdal, believes that all Gods, whether Ancients or True Gods, are all fake. Only Laplace stands as the true ruler of this world.
He wants to create a world free from the pests and haphazardly searching for you to join forces. He will provide you with anything you desire. Women, money, power, anything you desire will be yours," the mage explained as he got on his knees.
Seems like his desire to serve his master was more than his lust for Nvida.
Anyway, I got what I wanted from here… let's restart again so we can get another blowjob- cough cough… I mean, so that we can save the forest from these dark forces.
