BXBX NOVEL Chapter 156 - Reaching The Continent!
-----
[You learned the following Skills]
[Dark Necrotic Shark Scales Creation]
[Shockwave-Inducing Dark Claws]
[Monstrous Abyssal Jaws]
[Abyssal Titan of the Sea]
…
Chaos learned some new Skills with rather straightforward capabilities. One was another scale-producing defensive skill, the other was a claw-related one that generated a strong claw attack made of darkness, or shrouded his own claws with darkness to attack, another is similar but with Jaws instead, and the later was a passive skill that enhanced his power passively, while also making him stronger while being in the abyssal sea.
However, although these skills would be nice ingredients for skill fusion in the future, Chaos looked forward to the thing that he had noticed was not so far away, the shores of the Ginnun continent were closer, and the landmass of this gloomy continent wasn\'t so different from his own island.
The earth was almost empty, gray, and black colored, stony floor made most of the land. To the distance there was some black forests and a large, green-colored pond of toxic water. And behind everything large mountain peaks made a natural wall..
There was no shore to talk about, the entire continent had enormous cliffs and to get into the continent one would need to fly.
It was obvious that this world was not welcoming of the weak that was not capable of superhuman feasts, traveling through water was a suicide based on the monsters alone, but when you could reach the continent, you wouldn\'t be able to access it unless you climbed such large cliffs…
No matter how lucky, normal people would definitely die.
"Such a beautiful sight, my lord. I believe we had finally arrived." Said Belphegor.
"It is not so beautiful, I mean… It\'s the same look than in our island…" said Chaos.
"Ah well yes, but don\'t you think this gloominess is a bit charming?" asked Belphegor.
"Hmm… Well, maybe." Thought Chaos. He still preferred green grasslands over empty and desertic wastelands. But to each their own.
Chaos floating island quickly moved through the skies, reaching the continent.
There was a lot of traveling left to do, Chaos could sense the presence of the Fragment of the Forbidden One some dozens of Kilometers away, most likely behind those mountains…
But through his senses, he also felt as if something was going on in there, some kind of battle.
He was able to hear the screams and roars of warriors battling with one another, blood being spurred everywhere. Something terrible was going on!
"Could it be…?" wondered Chaos, as he decided to hurry the pace and jump into the skies alongside his companions…

War, Blood, Death. This was the only three words that the Demon Kingdom of Lucives has known since the Great War against the Wild Demon Tribes of the East started 3 years ago, a war that has lasted this long without a winner was about to come to its climax today.
The army of red-skinned demons of the Demon Kingdom of Lucives rushed through the vast wastelands, raising their weapons and unleashing their powerful demonic techniques and magic, as the wild and barbarian tribe of Wild Demons rushed towards them, resembling larger and more monstrous beasts, some had the heads of lions, other the heads of lizards, and others looked like chimeras in between several animals.
The Red Demons and the Wild Demons were two dominant races within this Region of the Continent of Ginnun, one was a pacific race that desired to be left alone to live however they could, while the other were nomads that traveled from area to area, region to region, conquering, devouring, and destroying anything they could find within their path.
The Wild Demons were named wild due to their, well, wild natures, they were like wild beast, even worse than actual Beastmen, which were a different race from them altogether.
Their origins are unknown, but these Wild Demons are said to be one of the original inhabitants of this chaotic and dark planet, while the Red Demons spread across the land of this continent after their progenitors arrived here through a demonic convocation by an ancient gathering of warlocks to be used as servants.
After the warlocks perished by a monster tide and their enormous building was destroyed by the nature of this wild world, the Red Demons escaped alive and slowly began to multiply in numbers, after many years of acting as a nomadic race, they settled down, began to farm, and raise cattle monsters, and created their independent Kingdom led by the two strongest of their tribe in that time, which became the King and the Queen.
More than 400 years have passed since then, and their century-old enemies, who had been following them ever since they were originally a nomadic tribe of demons had once more come for some carnage, the Wild Demons.
Extremely territorial, beastly, and aggressive, the Wild Demons were the original governors of this continent, and would not let other demons easily live with their own lives. They were predatory and desired to conquer this Kingdom to devour these red demons and use them to feed their young as well, as their large numbers had begun to decrease due to the land becoming less and less richer in resources or monsters to hunt that were not too strong for them to handle.
Due to this, every 20 years they would try to assault the Kingdom, the first tries ended in failure, with many of them dying, but as time progressed, their forces became more and more aggressive, and more intelligent as well. Eventually, after over one hundred years, they managed to assault the Kingdom and managed to push down several armies of red demons.
The red demons, who had been resisting for this long, had begun to fall into shreds, their armies begin easily disintegrated into the mass of Wild Demons slashing and devouring them.
They were like a living tide, something that had not happened before, it was as if a strange and dark force was manipulating them and giving them enormous quantities of demonic power, to the point that their minds were connected into a deadly legion…
The King of the Lucives Kingdom looked with concern as the Wild Demon Tide approached…
"Everything we built… is falling apart… Damned Wild Demons…"
CLASH!
However, something unexpected emerged in the middle of the battlefield.
A gigantic and monstrous black and red dragon.
"Did I interrupted something?"
