"Papa don\'t touch that!" Cried Aquarina. However, her father simply touched the miasma and took a sample of it, pouring it into a bottle, he seemed completely unaffected by the deadly substance that can kill people and mutate monsters.

"Don\'t worry, Aquarina, those that have reached a Physique of Tier 9 and above are immune to Miasma unless it is handled by someone equally powerful, alone as it is, it is just a very toxic substance." My father said. "Resistance and then immunity to poisons and other substances is something you\'ll acquire as your physique develops."

"Ohhh…" Aquarina said in surprise.

"I\'m done, I\'ve taken a sample…" Shade said, saving the bottle of miasma inside his shadows. After that, my father pointed his hand at the lake of miasma.

"If Faylen was here, this would be easier to purify." He sighed. "Phoenix Divine Fire."

FLUOSH!

Suddenly, the Miasma was completely covered by white and gold flames, similar to my own Divine Flames. Is this an even stronger version of my fire? I created it by combining Life, Light, and Fire elements together, I wonder if father\'s flames use even more combined elements…

"GRYYYAAAAH!"

The Miasma suddenly began to scream, countless of ghoulish screams could be heard coming from the lake of miasma, as it shaped itself into monstrous forms that were trying to resist my father\'s flames.

"Vanish!" My father angrily said, intensifying his flames even more until the lake of miasma was completely vaporized.

"W-Why was the miasma just talking now?" Asked Aquarina.

"Miasma is not only corrupted mana, but it possess negative energy, often formed by emotion essence. Emotion Essence is spread everywhere in the world, and it both creates magic and affects it. Miasma is something generated by corrupted Mana with Negative Energy, a byproduct of Emotion Essence that has accumulated large quantities of negative emotions." Shade explained.

"Well, that was horrifying…" Zack said.

"Now that we are done here… Shade can you go catch the people?" Asked my father.

"My Spirits already did it." Said Shade. "There is no point in chasing them."

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Suddenly, several entities made of darkness emerged, resembling reapers, they carried the unconscious bodies of many people, all of them were demons or beast-kin. This time they finally caught them alive!

"So we are done." My father said. "Though, let\'s inspect the area before we can ask them questions."

Like this, we had a trip in these underground caves. We walked across the most habited ones, as the cult had been leaving furniture and many other magic items and ingredients they used for their schemes. The caves, however, were very beautiful, bright crystals shining around the walls and the ceiling, ores growing everywhere. I felt the impulse of mining all of these resources!

And as we inspected the area, we found monsters. But this time my father didn\'t intend in making us fight them all so most of the time they simply scared them away with their auras. But there were some seriously strong creatures lurking around… Maybe we could come grind for more EXP and Levels later.

Amidst the caves, we found a large room filled with wooden boxes, when my father opened them, there were many purple-colored crystals in there.

"Demonite?" My father asked in surprise. "So they had all these in here? …Shade, are they awake yet?"

"No, but we can wake them up. However, I fear there might be bombs inside of them, we need to take them out before waking them up." Shade replied.

"Right… And the kids are tired. Well, let\'s go back for now, we already got everything we needed to know." My father said.

"But what about the Demonite and the other forbidden materials?" Asked Shade.

"We\'ll take them with us and-"

RUMBLE!

Suddenly, the caves where we were looking around began to tremble! I expanded my senses and immediately sensed something enormous moving right towards here!

"ROOOOAARRR!"

"SYLPHY!" My father quickly held me with his arms alongiside grabbing Zack, and Shade grabbed Aquarina, the two hurriedly began running away as the entire cave began to crumble behind us!

TRUUUUMMM….!

FLAAASH!

In a second, we found ourselves standing right before the enormous hole in the ground, as the tremors continued. This was no mere monster; this was something BIG!

"What the heck have they been raising in here?!" Asked Shade.

"This presence…" My father suddenly gritted his teeth.

Even the heroes felt nervous?!

FLUOOOSH!

Suddenly, an explosion of red energy emerged from the enormous canyon, as a gigantic aura appeared. This aura wasn\'t mana, it wasn\'t soul aura either, it wasn\'t spiritual essence… This was…

"True Demons!?" My father asked.

"It seems they had been nourishing a giant one down here for a while…" Shade said.

"GRUOOOOHHHH…!"

The enormous roar of an otherworldly entity resonated within the entirety of the Steppes, as a gigantic arm emerged from the ground, which was actually made up of many different limbs from other monsters… What the heck?!

CLAAASH!

Another arm emerged as well, this one covered in countless tentacles and eyes, as the rest of the body of the aberration emerged, showing what looked like a meatball made out of countless pieces of flesh tied together and in the core of it all, an enormous red eye with a large, spiraling jaw with many sharp fangs inside, and a long and slimy tongue.

"That\'s a Flesh Demon!" My father said.

"Flesh Demon!?" I asked in shock, noticing how Aquarina and Zack were just completely paralyzed in fear, I wouldn\'t blame them, the monster was over 40 meters tall.

"Flesh Demons are special types of Demons that can absorb and fuse with flesh of any other living being. They had been feeding this monster for a while if it grew so big like this!" Said Shade. "Did they plan to use this to attack the fiefdom? If this thing gets there… everything will be destroyed."

"We can\'t let that happen!" My father roared; his blazing aura emerged as his valiant eyes flashed with determination.

"I-I\'ll help too, however I can!" I said, readying myself to fight.
