Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner



It was finally 2 days.

Bzzz!

Azrael, the 1st Upper Demon did not waste a single second, he directly teleported to his destination as he hovered above his target's lair.

"Akramac". His voice was still chilly and filled with power.

"Lord 1st". Akramac came out of his island.

"Come face your punishment". He was concise with words.

Not refuting, Akramac obeyed the orders of this Demon as he bowed his head respectfully. The next moment, both Demons teleported away.

…

Legolas remembered Akramac's words.

'The Demon Master's Sanctuary is different from all the other regions of the Underworld. Apart from enjoying the most protection from the Universal Treasure, it also holds a lot of restrictions against other Demons'.

'Only the Demon Master can teleport in and out of his sanctuary'.

'Every other Demon, including the 1st Upper Demon is required to climb the stairs of blood before meeting the gate that leads to his Sanctuary'.

'Lastly, you need permission from the Demon Master to access inside'.

'No random Demon can access inside, neither can any rogue soul'.

'As for the time it takes to ascend the stairs of blood, it's 15 minutes'.

Legolas looked up at the bloody roof of this underworld that squirmed like the inside of a gigantic monster. 'I have less than 20 minutes to decide my fate'.

'Either I truly die or I become immortal, returning back in time and defeating death'. The prospects of what he was about to achieve if he was successful made his adrenaline levels rise, his blood pumped.

After days of planning, days of walking at the tip of a needle, carefully executing his plans, he was now close to the tipping point.

If he came out alive, he would have successfully defeated death.

He rehearsed his plans in his head so that he could not make a mistake.

'I can't afford mistakes now'.

As he thought, he suddenly received a signal in his brain. After 3 hours of waiting since finishing all his preparations, his first tamed Demon finally teleported away to the stairs of blood.

"He has finally moved".

"That's our signal".

This time, they didn't even need to act as stealthy anymore. With Azrael gone and having put all the other Upper Demons to sleep or tamed them, there was no one else to stop them unless they made an unfortunate mistake.

"Let's hurry, we now have less than 15 minutes". Legolas dared not hesitate.

He literally turned into the wind as he charged through the slope leading to the topmost region of the Inner Underworld where Azrael's lair was located.

Azrael's lair was located at the highest peak of the Inner Underworld to make it seem like he was overlooking the whole Underworld.

Legolas arrived in less than 2 minutes at his full speed.

"…"

For a few seconds after arriving, Legolas was shocked by what he saw. Azrael's lair was unlike any of the other lairs around this Underworld, his lair was also a cave but it was clean, and it was illuminated by bright green lights.

There was a table in the middle of this lair but it was not a torture table, there were papers on top the table and on top these papers were charts and drawings.

One of the papers on the table depicted a normal Demon.

Its title was written in bold.

>How to increase soul energy by absorbing other Demons<

He looked at the title of another book.

>How to break the limits of soul quality and redundancy<

Legolas was shocked. 'This guy is a Demon Scientist!'

While he looked at the different titles, Bam Bam and Daemon already went deeper inside the cave. Legolas looked at another title that caught his attention.

>Triangulation Orb; Soul Merging Technique<

There was a long note under this title.

[Finally, I have discovered the way to increase my soul and underworld energy infinitely.]

[The Triangulation Orb created from the soul fragments of my fellow Upper Demons holds the power to merge soul energies from different sources.]

[With the number of souls dying and being sucked by the Underworld daily, I will never have a shortage of soul samples.]

[This effectively solves the problem of soul energy redundancy.]

[By merging different soul energies together, their quality becomes high enough to exponentially increase my power each time.]

[It is not perfect yet but I believe I can make it perfect with time.]

[This is my key to breaking the limits set by the All-Father, I have what it takes to become the next Demon Master, overthrowing Master Zorgoth.]

Legolas' eyes widened after reading this paper. He wanted to pick it up but remembering Bam Bam's warning, he was barely able to contain his greed.

This was when Daemon's voice attracted his attention.

"Here they are!"

Going inside the cave, both souls were inside what seemed like a kitchen. There was a huge black pot burning in a fire and inside was the soul energy of countless dead souls, the monk diligently stirred it with a long wood.

Hearing their voices, the 2 souls turned to look at them in a clueless manner.

The female soul of the mutated Jaguar reacted first. Instantly on seeing the 2 humans, this soul froze as it seemed like electricity just went through it.

On the spot, this soul started remembering a host of memories.

In a few seconds, she recovered all her memories and reconciled with her present self. Her reaction was more impeccable than Legolas expected.

This powerful warrior showed great calm and composure despite her current situation. "I never expected to be sucked in by the infamous Underworld".

"It's better than nothingness, at least, I have a chance to go back to the war".

"…"

She finally looked at them. "Thank you for saving me".

Legolas forced a smile, then he looked at the monk again.

Unlike the female, this monk till now had no reactions.

Legolas frowned. "What went wrong?"

"He's from the Silver Race". She spoke. "There's a high chance that he had never met a human or mutated human before, he's a lost cause".

"Unless he sees another Silver race, I doubt he can recover his memories".

"Besides, what is a member of an esteemed race like the Silver Race doing here?" She looked closely at the monk. "All of their souls are supposed to be protected against events like this…, I bet he's a rogue".

Legolas was finding it a bit difficult to reconcile the personality of this female mutated human. She was so different from when she was a clean soul.

"But he's essential to my plan". Legolas' frown deepened.

"Which plan?"

"My escape plan".

"Oh, you have one already? Nice, count me in".

While Legolas took as little time as possible to explain their situation and his plan to her, Bam Bam looked at the monk. The next moment, he floated closer before merging with his soul as the attention of the others was attracted.

The next moment, having gotten what he wanted, Bam Bam came back out. Without hesitation, he transformed into a beautiful delicate Silver Race girl.

The monk jerked to life instantly at the sight. "Megumi!"

"…"

"…"
