《I can cheat? So let's have fun.》Chapter 6: Ultimate trap.

In Kokmal's private office.
Demon lord watchs the image in his crystal ball. ["WHOAAAA"] *CRASH* The spying drone was crushed by dragon's bones. 'Sh*t. I followed him from the desert, now I can only wait. I hope Charlham has a good plan.'
Kokmal stares in the crystal. 'But... dragon? How he could kill... Ow right.' He realized. Velhar's regalia was the dagger that slowly killed everyone and changed them into undead servant. Lich probadly just stabbed sleeping dragon.
Demon lord direct his look at the window. 'I have bad feeling...'
***********
In front of the castle Xiodar points the wand and shouts "Avaca cadabra!"*BOOOM* The wand exploded."...."
"Even wands?" Jael asked with bored expression. Xiodar tries to make a regalia. However every weapon from the storage ring couldn't hold his mana. In the strorage ring were only normal weapons without magical powers.
"So I need to find somthing stronger?" Xiodar asks in annoyed voice. "So where now?"
"No idea. You mentioned other artifacts in the ring?"Bloodfang replies.
"Yeah but there are things like the clock, flashlight, compass and that weird stone."
"Stone?"
"Yeah. It can be pluged in the compass and have weird red dot." Demon lord takes out the mysterious stone and compass. Then join them together.
"! I think may father mentioned that his Lord have a locator to find his generals!"
"So it's showing Zelenia's location?"
"I think so."
"! I know! We find her and get the password!"
"Then we can get Velhar's secret informations!" Jael answers excited.
'And the porn.' Xiodar says in his mind. "Then let's go!" They started to walk away.
*CRACK*
""Huh?""
*SWISH**BOOOM*
They fell in the trap."HAHAHAHAH!"
Demon lord looks up. 'I hope they don't have a talking cat...' He sees the enemy. Little green guy in traveling clothes with a backpack.

"Heh. That idiot thinks the little hole can stop us." Jael jumps up but it is normal jump. "Eh?" Vampire looks confused and shocked. He should easily jump out.
"HAHA! Look down smart guy!" Goblin shouts. When traped mens lowered their's heads they saw a big round metal plate. "It's mana jammer! New invention of Lord Kokmal! You two won't be able to control your mana in that hole!"
"Then I will just climb out." Xiodar grabs the wall of the trap and starts climbing. Even without the mana his body is stronger than a normal human. When his hand reaches the end... *CLICK* '?' He moves his second hand and... *CLICK* 'Okey. What is going on?' When he almost escapes.
*WHOOOSH* *BAM* He falls back with hurting head.
"Exacly as planned." Goblin says when waving his hammer. "I hope you like the gift." When Xiodar looked at his hands... there were two metal bracelets with chains going up to somewhere outside the trap.
Demon lord turn his eyes to Jael. "You would help, it is not the zombie dragon but a goblin!"
"Right!" Vampire gets ready but...
"Oh what a wonderfull dawn!" Goblin says so they could hear him.
""!""
"Who are you and what do you want!" Xiodar shouts.
"Hmpf!" Little demon starts explonation. "My name is Charlham the general of Lord Kokmal. I will use you in the project C-565." Goblin said with pride.
"And what that means?"
"I will drain your mana to create the legendary Philosopher’s Stone!"
"..." Xiodar stares at him like on idiot.
***********
One hour later.
*CLANG**CLANG**CLANG* Jael stabs the metal plate with his rapier.
"..."
"..." Xiodar's expression didn't change at all. "Why are you looking at me like that?!" Charlham screams. This entire time they have the staring contest. "You thing I am idiot?! That it won't work?! That the Philosopher’s Stone is a lie?! Or this is just a psychological atack?!"

"How long do you think draining infinite mana would take?" Demon lord asks in cold tone. "Your plan is to wait here for eternity?"
"UGH!" Goblin's pride took the serious blow. "NO! I will just drain that much mana how possible!"
"Then it will be just a strong magical stone. Far from the true Philosopher’s Stone."
"OCH!" Critical hit! "If it will be enought then it will be the same!"
"Heh.." Xiodar closed his eyes. "HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Then laughs like a maniac. "So let's see how much you can take without blowing up." He started realising his mana.
Charlham looks behind him. There a barrel looking drainig machine stood. After a hour It was full in 10%. Now speed of draining is 3 times faster. 'This guy is a true monster.' Goblin turns to the Demon lord. "Impressive but still too slow."
"Heh this isn't even my final...." Xiodar concetrere on barrier around his hearth. 'Oke let's make a small crack...OH SH*T!' Mana bursts like a water from the hydrant. 'This is only small hole!'
"HEH?!" Charlham shouts. Now meter on the machine is moving 10% per second! "STOP! I MUST TURN IT O..."*BOOOM*. Machine exploded.
***********
Demon lord comes out the hole. He takes out blanket from the ring and drops it on the vampire.*TFFFFFFF* 'Huh?' Xiodar looks up and sees the goblin flying in the air. It looks like his backpack is a jetpack.
"You are a really interesing speicmen! I will be back!" He fly away.
"It looks like Kokmal knows about you." Jael says when coming out of the trap. "And he is a guy you don't want to impress."
"That whole situacion was stupid." Demon lord says with tired expression. "He wanted to make a Philosopher’s Stone from a Philosopher’s Stone. "
"So you have one?" Vampire looks at him. "Somehow it didn't suprise me..."
"Yeah..." Xiodar smiles. Then bracelets started emiting purple light. Wristlets then absorbed the chains. When they stopped glowing they formed bracelets with dar purple gems and little chains around. "Okey... Is that what I thnk?"

Journey log.
Day 1.
Finally I have something to write in!
It looks like a handcuffs becomed my regalia. I can shout two chains from each and it won't be destroyed by my mana! I can also shape them like I want. Size and lenght also can differ.
Day 3.
We are going in a direction the locator is showing. It is showing the south.
I also asked Jael to look at the books. They mostly advanced magic stuff, medicine stuff and romance stories. I fear what we find in private letters.
Day 10.
We are close to place called Dhanthanos. It is the most dangerous dungeon in the world. Even Demon lords don't enter it.
Well maybe some day.
Day 14.
Kraken's lake the biggest lake in the demon's territory and second in the world.
I saved a week by crossing it in Skywalker style.
Day 18.
We can see our goal. The fortress...
******************
"So what have gone wrong?" Kokmal asks the goblin. He knows that Charlham wouldn't be back after one lose.
"The machine wasn't enought"
"I see... So magic stone was still too weak. Well we hav..."
"No! That monster have too much mana!"
"...What?" Kokmal could fill this machine in 15% and Dourin in 25%. Mana had to be taken without break or it won't form a stone. "So how lo..."
"When he started realising his mana he filled it in 10 seconds. AND WASN'T EVEN TIRED!!!"
"..." Kokmal was speechless. 'I must get him and see what is inside!'
