Chapter 595  The Mysterious Bony Finger

The system was frightened for its hosts\' sake when seeing the bony finger spasm and twitch so exaggeratedly. What is going on? The moment its host broke through again, the finger began acting up. Dorian narrowed his gaze, feeling something wasn\'t quite right. However, he didn\'t panic. In fact, even if he was staring at the face of death, panic has never been an emotion he could understand. With a lazy gaze, he gently caressed his left ring finger which was slowly switching from bone to flesh back and forth. "What do you want to do?"

Vrmmm~

It shook and shook more and more, RELEASING a burning aura within the space. So powerful? The system\'s mouth dropped to the mouth when feeling cornered by its presence. What exactly was this bony finger that latched onto its host? Dorian didn\'t stop soothing it until it abruptly came to a halt. And then–

Swish!! The space was now empty… Dorian and the system were now gone. .

–Hongmora Plains–

.

The desolate and grotesque landscape stretched endlessly, resembling a barren wasteland swallowed by darkness. ~How dull. The sky was a sickly shade of gray, casting a dull light over the twisted, decaying terrain littered with remnants of forgotten lives. Everywhere one looks, they can see jagged rocks jut out from the ground like the bones of the dead.

Dorian blinked softly, looking all around him with an unhurried expression. Where was he? He had an idea after seeing his flesh glow and spark with flashes of flames constantly being extinguished. Oh? "Good boy." Dorian caressed the finger that was working overtime to keep his true body from turning into ashes.

Who would have thought that this little bony finger was powerful enough to teleport him to the underworld while keeping his body alive. Yes… that\'s right. He was in the underworld. This desolate, yet chilling place was just one of the plains within the underworld. How to say it? The place felt chilly with no signs of fire or flames anywhere. Yet, the moment he appeared, his body immediately caught on fire. Why? Because no mortal body can survive in the underworld for even a millisecond without turning to ashes. The air was thick with a palpable sense of despair. And from one to time, one could hear the hunting screams of both underworld creatures and human souls. Yes, the human souls are sent down here to go through their punishments for how they lived during their mortal lives. But again, the abyss doesn\'t allow creatures here to harm human souls that are down here for Punishment. After punishment, the human souls get sent back to Purgatory where they will be cleansed and sent off to live other lives. Some souls have been here in the underworld for over 10,000 years now. Whatever they did during their time in the world of the living, will surely have consequences. But apart from the ear-shattering screams of human souls, he could hear the sounds of weapons and enemies clashing in the far, far distance. -War-

The battle in the underworld was still underway, as these creatures have been fighting day and night for months and months. In fact, it\'s been over a year now, and both camps are showing no signs of backing out yet. .

After running through the vast plains and bypassing multiple creatures, Dorian found he was seemingly visible to them all. \'Interesting…\' This Bony Finger was more powerful than he originally thought.

No wonder Beelzebub was so desperate to find it. It seems it was one of the keys to guarantee their success after these underworld creatures win the war. How to say it? These underworld creatures didn\'t take the battle against the humans so seriously. In fact, for them, they were only gathering their strength for the war against the heavens. Why? Because the planets will all align on that day, and with the various special items they\'ve gathered, they would be able to pierce through the realms and go straight to the heavens. Too bad some of the special items they originally collected, were now \'stolen\' and dispersed by that darn Trickster! If Beelzebub knew that the item he was searching for far out in another world was actually on Dorian who was now in the underworld,... Beelzebub might just outright lose his mind in fury. So what was the point of him going on a wild goose chase all this time? n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Why did that darn Trickster act like it was him who took the finger when it was just another mere mortal who did it? Of course, Dorian didn\'t know all this. Looking at the war that involved millions and billions of creatures, Dorian raised one brow in deep thought. But soon, he felt his body quake and quake, knowing this was the finger\'s way of communicating with him. Pouf!~

He vanished from the screen, appearing back in the space he originally was. Only this time, Dorian coughed and choked, with heavy steam emitting his body. .

[Host… host! You were there for 20 whole minutes!!!]

How can this be? How can a human stay so long under there without perishing? The realm of the underworld, controlled by the Abyss, wasn\'t a slack one that would allow any mortal flesh survive so long. So why? Why did the abyss allow the bony finger to teleport its host in? The more the system thought of things, the more shaken it became. And the eye it used to look at its host now changed to an even more unfathomable one than before. [Host… please be honest. Just what exactly, are you?]

Cough, cough, cough, cough~

Dorian was on all fours, coughing heavily from the impact. This was the first time the system had actually seen its host so vulnerable. Sadly, it didn\'t last, because 1 minute later, Dorian had calmed down and was now seated cross-legged, massaging the bony finger that growled like a dog. "Why are you so familiar to me?"

Dorian looked at the bony finger with scrutiny. "I feel like I\'ve known you before…"
