Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?-Chapter 301 Who Was He?

Dorian frowned, listening to the creature's words.

"I swear! I swear! I'm telling the truth! A few days back, the gateway going to and fro the underworld was temporarily sealed!"

"And you say it might involve the Princes?"

"Yes..." The creature replied, coughing vigorously.

Now that it had been caught, it wanted to drag everyone down with it. Or... At least send this bastard mortal to his death.

What? It has always been a selfish trick, only thinking about itself. What's more, it was unwilling to see others prosper when it wouldn't.

In that case, damn it all!

It sang out all it knew without delay. And not surprising, it only kept things about itself private to discreet.

It was still thinking about how to escape. Thus, it made plans for itself.

Dorian frowned.

What could cause so many high-ranking demons to leave this world and head back to the underworld so fiercely?

What was going in there? And how did it connect to that damn shape-shifting god of mischief?

Dorian had no evidence, but he felt it should have something to do with Loki.

The guy had probably stored trouble somehow.

[Host, no wonder the streets feel a little cleaner.] The system commented.

.

During the past few days, it was shocking to realize that its hist hadn't sensed any higher under creatures around.

It was as though they had taken some vacation off, leaving only the small fries to continue raising havoc here.

Such a thing should've made many exorcists jump in glee. But in its host's case, it only made him colder.

Unknown circumstances were what its host was proceeding against.

And now, hearing that the gateway connecting the underworld and this world was sealed, they finally understood that something big was going on down there.

Dorian frowned.

'Could it be the princes?'

He wished he could go in and out of the underworld to have a look for himself.

Too bad that would be impossible. No mortal could go in, or else they would be crazed with evil... No matter if they were exorcists or not.

What's more, they would turn to ashes just a few seconds later?

Never underestimate the heat from the underworld.

The abyss was a wonder that could create such an atmosphere at will, just for beings residing there.

What to go to the underworld? Forget it!... Impossible.

Likewise, humans couldn't go to the heavenly realms too.

The overflow of heavenly auras would tear and rip apart their human flesh.

The flesh was a vessel only stable in the human realm.

.

Hmm... Dorian picked out a few hints from the creature's words.

Why did they seal the gates as though protecting the passage from other creatures?

Who were these gate controllers guarding against?

A thought came to Dorian's mind. 'Could it be against the new princes?'

Back in his former world, he had also heard about the new princes, though the humans knew almost nothing about them. All they knew were basic facts that the new and old princes hated each other.

Oh?

Dorian chuckled playfully. 'Things are really getting interesting... I don't know how he did it. But I'm sure Loki is right at the forefront of the issue.'

But was Dorian going to thank him? No way!

That God of mischief had probably done those things before he met him.

The trickster was using everyone for his amusement. So why thank him?

Of course, the gates sealed temporarily and the big underworld beings leaving the scene only bought him more time to build humanity's first Legions of exorcists!

The gateway was closed, and the demons here won't be able to contact the underworld until whatever the big guys were doing down there was over.

[Host, it looks like fate is on our side. During this time, you must lead humanity to stop them!]

'Hmm...' Dorian hummed.

They had to rush things up. Who knows when next the gateway will open up?

It could be tomorrow, a month later, or even a year later... It was best to be prepared.

But could he build strong forces to contend with the strongest creatures?

One should know that with a flick of his fingers, a creature like Lucifer could destroy 8 major cities in one swoop.

And that was just a flick of a finger.

Now... If he were actually to make a move, maybe part or all of the country, as well as several other countries in the continent would, would be destroyed.

.

Dorian's eyes flickered.

They were racing against time. But fortunately, he wasn't alone.

[Host, my master created me to be one of a kind. Provided you complete your missions, the heavenly qi and aura within the Academy will be boundless. No place in all mortal worlds has such a blessed holy land like the one the Academy resides on. What should've taken you thousands of years to accomplish with cultivation will only take you a few days, weeks, and months to do... Host, the power of the space is birthed from part of my master's strength. And believe me, host... When I say my master is trying, he is really, really, strong!] 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

Dorian nodded subconsciously.

From the moment the academy was formed, he realized the strength of this system's said master.

The air in the academy was too rich and boundless. Just cultivating there for a day had boosted his strength so much like child's play.

That is, provided one passes the test and gets admitted, they should be able to grow strong eventually. It's just that the rate and speed of their growth will still depend on their innate abilities.

Likewise, such pure heavenly auras could only be taken in those who have the ability to become exorcists.

There were too many factors that decided if one could pass the many tests or not. And the ability of the mortal body to assimilate heavenly auras was also crucial.

Thinking about the system's master, Dorian fell into a deep silence.

Who?...

Who exactly was this master? Don't think he's stupid to believe he came here on accident. There's a bigger hand in play.

But whether they wanted him to be a puppet, or were they here to assist him in finding more about himself... Dorian decided to take things slow.

Lifting his head, he stared at the ceiling above.

'Mr. Master... Soon, we'll know just what your intentions are.' ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

Huh.

Dorian didn't know it, but the said master had been watching him with interest.

All that could be seen was a blinding light around a certain heavenly being that looked like a godly man.

Looking at the scene, the man lazily leaned back with a light chuckle. "Soon... We will meet again."

If anyone heard his words, they would be shocked to death.

Again? Have they ever met before?

For this, only the man himself would be able to answer.

,m Only the man covered with blinding lights would be able to answer.

.

Alright.

Dorian threw several coins on the rotting baby without mercy.

"Don't worry. It won't be painful... for long."

"You!~~~"
