"Are you kidding me?", was what the demon said.

Jay was able to understand this too however he was shocked to think anything straight.

He equipped the hammer of darkness because that was the greatest and strongest weapon he had at the moment.

First of all the demon mentioned something that made Jay surprised.

'How does he know about the Dake Overlord stuff?', was what Jay asked himself.

Hearing that word had become quite regular, he would hear that now and then.

Even after leaving Earth and ending up in the Nether World, he was still hearing the said Name.

'Are you kidding me?', he said to himself.

The thing about the Dark Overlord was something that he had no idea about. Recently a lot had been going on due to which he kept on getting shocked.

Whatever the case may be, now he was in a dilemma because of the demon in front of him.

*gulp*

'Although my stats have been increased significantly, my legs haven't calmed down yet.'

His legs were still trembling even after some time.

"What is the Dark Overlord doing here?", the demon asked with a raised voice.

Of course, the voice was shaky as if the demon was scared too.

'Huh...?'

'When I used the cursed dagger, he said something about being the Blood Overlord's apostle...'

'Now when in using the hammer of darkness, he called me the Dark Overlord directly instead of any apostle sh*t.'

'Does that mean this is a weapon that shows my identity?', Jay asked himself.

He had already read the description of the hammer, only the Dark Overlord could use it.

This meant that even his apostle or disciple or whatever won't be able to use it.

This served as an identification card perhaps!

In any case, Jay thought that it would be wise to check the demon's stats.

'Ding'

[ Profile ]

Name:???

[ You can't view any more information due to the large rank difference ]

This was the notification that popped up when he tried to check the demon's profile.

'Might as well not show me anything...'

He wasn't able to see anything, to begin with.

The difference in rank might have been pretty huge for this to happen.

In any case, he realized that the demon in front of him was out of his league.

Even when he used Stealth, he was found out. Not even his Dash could make him faster than the foe.

What else could he even use?

The system message earlier did display to use the tube of agility to escape, but that was only valid when the demon hadn't picked its interest on Jay.

Now that its attention was on Jay and the hammer, even the slightest mistake could end up becoming fatal.

Human beings weren't that rare however in the Nether World, there were hardly any humans!

That was why the demon smiled when it saw Jay and asked if he was a human, to begin with.

'Ding'

Right after that Jay used up only two of the runes, by activating them, his overall stats increased yet again.

But no matter what, his stats were hella low even now.

He couldn't think of anything else when all of a sudden he ended up equipping the gloves of Myrion.

"The..."

"The apostle Of Void Overlord?", the demon said with surprise.

Jay had no idea about what he kept blabbering, in any case, he wasn't sure if he could take on the demon if he were to attack.

Thankfully, the demon had no plans of attacking, at least not after seeing the Hammer or Darkness.

"Your highness..."

This was what Jay heard all of a sudden.

He never expected to hear something like that here, in the palace. But that was not something that surprised him much.

What actually surprised him was the fact that the one who said that was none other than the demon.

All of a sudden he bowed in front of Jay which indeed surprised him.

'Who the heck is he?'

'The only one who can use that hammer is the Dark Overlord!'

'I was almost sure that he was the Dark Overlord, but then he had the cursed dagger at the starting...'

'That would mean that he would be an apostle Of the Blood Overlord who likes curses and blood.', the demon said to himself.

*gulp*

'He then showed the glove of the Void Overlord...'

'There is no way an Overlord can use the powers or weapons of other overlords, then how the heck is this possible?'

He could barely think anything straight.

When Jay saw the demon bowing, he almost instantly withdrew the weapons and runes.

Not that the demon was afraid of Jay because he couldn't feel much power and mana from him, he was afraid because of a different thing, to begin with!

"Your highness, I had been waiting for you...", was what he said.

"Please, save this dreadful world..."

"Save us from Acron...", was what he said.

"Huh...?", when Jay heard that, he was surprised.

Although he knew that his mission had something to do with Acron, he never knew that someone else would ask him to do the same too.

Also, after hearing that, he became certain that the person whom he had to hunt was some other demon or being other than the one in front of him.

"Tell me, who is this Acron?", Jay asked with arrogance.

"..."

The demon was more than ready to explain everything to Jay.

"Acron, he is an evil Demi-God who is the Demon Lord or Demon King of the NetherWorld.", was what he said.

"A Demi-God?", now this was quite surprising.

A demi-God was something that Jay wasn't expecting at all.

"Yes, he was kicked out from Earth, now he rules the Netherworld..."

The demon then explains how cruel the demon lord Acron was. How the netherworld changed because of him.

"I see..."

"I think I really have to take care of him...", was what Jay said.

The demon smiled on hearing that. All this time he had been thinking that Jay was stronger than himself because he was able to hide his powers and strength.

To begin with, he wasn't hiding anything, he was indeed weak!

The demon further explained how Acron conquered all the demon Kings by defeating them.

He reveals the fact that it was Acron who destroyed half of his city, not that he was completely good, to begin with.

"So, where will I find him...?", Jay asked.

Jay was pissed off, but that didn't mean that he could take wrong decisions with haste.

"Actually..."

"He has gone to Earth...", was what the demon said.

"Wha-", the moment he said that Jay felt as if he was the biggest fool in the world.

If Acron actually went to earth, then Jay just wasted his time in coming to the Nether Land.

"Then I have to get back to earth to kill him...", was what Jay said.

However, the demon had different plans.

"Wait, please, you can't leave us and just go behind him..."

"You need to help us and free us from those three demon generals!", was what he said.

"Demon Generals?"

Demon Generals were the demons who were just below Acron. If all three were to combine their powers, they could use half of Acron's full power!

They were evil too and in Acron's absence, they were the ones that were torturing all the innocent ones.

Jay had to first of all increase his powers.

There were many hunters back on Earth so he had nothing much to worry about, he had to do his best and help the demons at the moment.

"Fine, tell me, where will I find them...", was what he asked.

Right after saying that the demon showed a map.

To be continued...
