《Nine Paths Of Asura-Edited To Chapter 13》Chapter 98-A Terrible Mistake
Advertisement
In a pocket of spacetime Dahn was leisurely enjoying a nap. He reminisced about the good ole days when he stood against the Heavens. However, he was now reduced to babysitting the next generation. He sighed,
"Damnit. But those bastard followers of Asura gave me back my old blades at least so I can't be too angry at them. With that my power has almost returned to what it was at that time. If only this body of mine still worked too. Whatever, it's not like I'll have to fight anything more than some pretentious sect lords while guarding this kid. If I even bother... he's way too much work to guard! How can he ALREADY have offended another sect. Does he think the Heavens do not have eyes?? Thankfully I'm such a genius. It was truly a great idea to send him to my old Secret Estate. While a sealing formation is not really suited to him, while he comprehends it he won't be getting into trouble!"
Dahn enjoyed another leisurely cup of ancient tea which he had stolen from the Head Administrator.
"Ahhh...that ole bastard's tea is still the best. He usually never shares his tea with those outside the Heavenly Court, but while he was watching the battle, I managed to snag several cups from his cave. On second thought maybe I should be thanking this kid, this is the life. The Heavens are not hunting me, I have no responsibilities, and I get to drink the greatest of tea..." He closed his eyes in pure bliss. However....
Rumble!!!
Dahn suddenly dropped his teacup spilling the stolen tea all over the spacial pocket.
"Wait...you're kidding me. How the hell did he destroy the formation, even if it's old it's way beyond his level to comprehend...did he comprehend it? No no way! It must be that damned Mizuchi! CRAP!"
Hurriedly Dahn faded through the void making haste to Lineir's dimension. However when he arrived it was already too late. He appeared only to see a second pile of dust where the sealing swords had been and Lineir saying,
"Hmmm yep, Mizuchi you're just too forceful. Please hold back next time, I went and insulted the owner of this Secret Estate for nothing..." He said and Dahn heard Mizuchi's reply,
"Haha, they were trash swords anyway. And come on this senior was just playing a prank on some mortals. You sure you don't want to trash his estate?" She urged Lineir on and Dahn roared in rage badly startling Lineir who had been completely unaware of his existence.

"GODDAMIT MIZUCHI! You destroyed the Nine Blade Void Sealing Hell Suppressing Array I paid for??? WHY?????!!!!!!!" Dahn screamed while resisting the urge to tear out his hair. To Lineir, it appeared as if a blurry purple cloud of Qi had suddenly started yelling at him. However Mizuchi replied,
"Oh? Is that what it was? I thought someone was just playing a prank on some junior because that array was so old. Wait that was a Nine Blade Void Sealing Hell Suppressing Array? You really owned this shabby Secret Estate back in the day?" Her childish acting made Dahn unsure of whether he should laugh or cry.
RUMBLEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Oh my gods. It's out. I can't stop it now." Dahn mourned and cursed Mizuchi and the Solar Martial God as well as everyone related to them. Lineir, puzzled asked,
"Have we met before...I know! You were the one I met when I awoke after Lightholme. Are you...the Bladelord?" He guessed based on what Mizuchi had said and Dahn furiously motioned.
"Keep it down kid. You never know when the Heavens might be listening. They might seem gone now but their armies can descend at any time. Once one of those buggers come their armies will surely follow!" His appearance suddenly stopped distorting as much so rather than an indistinct cloud of Qi it became possible to vaguely make out a robed figure. Mizuchi somehow made a clapping noise and squealed with joy.
"Ooooooohhhh are we going to get to see the legendary Bladelord fight? My master has always said you were a top swordsman of the old days but I've always wondered if he was just being humble." She said as the tyrannical tablet, now freed from the formation of swords, began to shake terribly. The other 7 sealing swords shattered into dust and the tablet began to float out of the ground. Dahn sighed. That DAMNED Solar God how could he not discipline his Deathblade. If he didn't know better he would suspect this was a joke and the Solar God was secretly watching somewhere. However that was impossible as he knew for a fact that the Solar God was still occupied at the Western Pillar.
RUMBLE!!!!
The tablet suddenly began to emanate waves of a terrifying aura. It undulated with dark energies. Traces of long burnt out fire Qi suddenly sprung to life and a terrifying devilish Qi accompanied it. Dahn suddenly has a nostalgic feeling. It was actually more like regret. Regret that he had not only pissed off the Heavens in his youth but also the Hells. Regret that his title of the Bladelord was earned from the slaughter of countless demons and angels of both sides.

"ARRRRRGH if I had known this would have happened I never would have sent you here. Goddamit, Mizuchi get over here. If you help we can probably reseal this chasm pretty quickly before the Heavens or Hells even notice." He said. However, Mizuchi made a noncommittal noise and remained in Lineir's hands.
"Don't wanna. No one wields me but master. Besides, I was ordered to guard this kid. I can't forsake my task." She said as if she was loyally protecting Lineir and both Lineir and Mei had to wonder. Was Mizuchi really dumb or did she just love making trouble?
"Are you freaking KIDDING ME! **** * **** ** * * * * * *!!!!!!!!!" Dahn viciously cursed at this Deathblade who refused to help him seal the problem she had created! He smacked his own face slightly hoping to wake up but realized that he had indeed entered this situation yet again. It felt just like the last time he had been tricked into fighting the Heavens and the Hells...
"Fine! Fine! Take care of the kid, don't let him get killed by any stray devils. I will deal with the situation." Dahn released his Qi disguise even more as he focused on engaging in true combat for the first time in eons. Gradually a purple robed figure appeared though indistinct, it gave off the feeling of being slack. Dahn moved unnaturally casually, yet with perfect precision. It was as if he was less human and more...a puppet.
RUMBLE!!!
Swirling fire Qi and devil Qi filled the air as the tablet completely busted out of the Secret Estate and then crumbled into dust!
RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMBLE!!!!
"Huh? Is it over?" Lineir wondered. However, the rumbling continued and off in the distance suddenly the top of the immense volcano exploded!
KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!! SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII SHI SHI SHI SHI!
The explosion blew the top off the mountain revealing a massive runic sealing array embedded in the rock. Flaming boulders the size of houses started flying everywhere. Suddenly the runes shattered and the entire volcano also exploded.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The explosion was immense and several ginormous boulders actually reached Dahns Secret Estate. Instantly ancient barriers flickered into existence which created a sort of translucent force field which blocked the rocks. Lineir clutched Mizuchi in one hand and Mei in the other as his bone scythes extended. He didn't understand what was going on at all. Dahn meanwhile, appeared to be meditating. He simply floated slightly above the ground in the center of the Secret Estate where the tablet used to be.
"Uhhh senior? What exactly was that tablet, and what is happening?" Lineir asked. At this point he had more or less ascertained that Mizuchi had tricked him into causing some sort of Heaven sent disaster. Fortunately it seemed this senior seemed to not mind Lineir and Lineir was thankful he had not trashed the Estate as Mizuchi had suggested earlier. Dahn spoke without opening his eyes though either way there was no way for Lineir to tell with the shield of obscuring Qi constantly hazing out his existence. Even when he did not actively maintain the technique it blocked his true appearance from showing as more than an indistinct slack figure.
"That tablet you speak of was left behind by a general in the Hell Suppressing Army. It is designed to summon the devil armies of the Hells. However when I attained it I invited an extremely skilled expert in sealing formations with the intent of using that Command Tablet to attract a number of demons here. Once they were gathered I had that expert seal the Command Tablet instantly trapping numerous demons before they could rise up completely under that volcano. Unfortunately, over the ages the sealing formation weakened and now that the Command Tablet has faded away the seal is completely broken and it will not be long before the forces of the Hells trapped underneath the volcano break free."
Dahn said in his slightly annoyed voice. Lineir was aghast. He had unleashed the Hells? In the legends the Hells were sealed by the Heavens eons ago and aside from the occasional wanderer, no longer interacted with this plane. However now it seemed...he was going to experience firsthand the coming of a new legend!

Life is not easy at the bottom of the food chain. And in the Kingdoms of Magica, the absolute bottom belongs without question to the puppy-like lowbie zone trash known as mongrels. Born to an unfinished zone with only bored, murderous outpost guards for neighbors, the lives of these fluffy balls of hapless nuisance are short, dull, and deeply confused. Because after all: What's the point of a mob that no one can be bothered to hunt, in a zone utterly lacking in reasons to visit, in a game that was already the height of trash fantasy nonsense? Well it may not be much, but it's their life, dammit. And if Shh, the mongrel bearing the questionable distinction of smartest pup in his pack, has anything to say about it, they won't be on the bottom forever. Because that's the silver lining of being on the bottom: the only way left to go is up.
