Chapter 315: Talking With Forest Drake Master
When he found the mark, Alros prepared for a lot of thing. He expected the mark to blow up, likely killing the Forest Drake and injuring him. He also expect it to unleash a powerful wave of energy and injure him.
There is also the chance that the mark will connect to him and try to parasitize him, absorbing his energy. Essentially, killing him by sucking him dry. Which will be an ironic way to go.
However, what he did not expect is for him to feel a part of him, likely his Soul but he just guessing, to be pulled somewhere. As it happened, his vision darkened.

When his vision returned, he find himself in a forest, which is not weird since he is already inside one. What is weird is that he could tell this is not a real forest.
He prove it by looking down and seeing himself in an illusory state.
"What is this place?" he muttered, walking around the forest to find a clue on how to get out.
As he did so, he heard footstep behind him. He turned to see who it is and found himself dumbstruck by the beauty in front of him.
She has a pale gray hair, one that reach her butt. The top of her hair is crowned with flowers, with one just at the top of her right ear. Her arms and legs are slim, looking just as fragile as a flower, similar to her body which is slender in form.
However, her slim limbs did not match her assets. Her bust, while not the largest, is nothing to scoff at, and can be considered as big. Her butt is in the same spot, as Alros was able to make out the shape. He then shifted his attention to her dress.
Her body is covered with a strapless blue dress, with the top hugging her upper part and emphasizing her bust, though showing only the slightest of cleavage.

As for the skirt, it is in the shape of a petal, with multiple slits making it look like a flower. At the end of the skirts, the color change from blue to green, a dazzling dress fitting for a beautiful woman.
He turned to look examine her face. Her green eyes is similar to the color of the leaves, except more vibrant and alive. Her face can be described as cute and beautiful, making him want to claim her for himself.
As he examined her, the being did the same with him. Her eyes constantly looked at him, checking him out, or so it seem. It is hard to tell but he can guess she did.
When they observe one another, Alros's awe towards her beauty turned to vigilance. This woman is the one behind the mark on the Forest Drake, so she is likely the reason the monster goes after him.
In fact, why did he think it is only one monster. For all he knew, the other 4 monsters could be the same.
He then feel a buzzing in his head. It is not a threatening one but it is annoying. He turned towards the likely cause, who looked at him, her expression asking if there is anything wrong.
He wanted to lash out to her when he realize something,
'Maybe this is the way for her to communicate,' it's likely the being never come in contact with a human before. After all, his monsters, does that hide in the deeper part is the same.
He let the buzzing happened, trying to interpret her words. Soon, he understand what she was saying,
'Who are you?'
He answered quickly, almost opening his mouth before remembering she might not understand if he speak. Instead, he send a telepathic message, hoping it would be enough.
'I am a demon,'
Thankfully, it does the trick as the being send another message.
'What is. A demon?'
'A demon is a powerful being, that tend to be evil, or at least selfish in pursuit of their desire,'
'Then you are a threat to the forest,'
Well, that escalated quickly.
'Why am I a threat to the forest?'
'I sense you when you are trying to fly inside the forest. The power you give out will greatly damage it. From what you did to the guardians, I am correct in my assumption,'
Looks like his decision to flying inside the forest resulting in him being in the kill list of the woman in front of him.
Well, he can return the favor and put her in the rape list.
'So, you are the one who send those five monsters,' he asked, trying to hide his rage, of it is possible inside wherever this is.
'If by monsters you mean guardians, then yes. From the looks of it, one of them have been taken down,' it is not a question, but a statement, one Alros did not find it himself to answer.
However, his silent must be interpreted as a yes, as the being sighed.
'Leave, this place is not for you,' she suddenly said.
'This place, or this forest?' he asked for clarification, though he already guess the answer.
'Both,' that sounds about right.
The demon laugh, though it was not one of mirth, 'Do you think, after sending those 'guardians'" he made the quotation sign, 'after me, that I will just agree to your demand.
Here how this will go, either you submit or I will make you pay the price by the end of this,'
The being's eyes narrowed as she frowned.
'It seem you don't want to take my generous offer,' Alros wanted to scoff, generous offer, who is she kidding?!
'Then, I have to exterminate you here,' the forest shifted to form a giant monster, an amalgamation of trees, rocks, and soils.
The size alone surpassed the Troll Overlord. The worse part is, inside this place, he did not have his magic, plus he did not find a way to escape this place.
'There must be a way out!' he thought in panic, doing his best to hide his fear, though the shaking of his legs definitely help in that endeavor.
The monster, uncaring of his inner turmoil like the jerk it's creator is, punched downwards, wanting to flatten him into a pancake. Thankfully, his instinct went overdrive, allowing him to jump back and dodge the powerful strike.
However, the shockwave and debris are more merciless, disorienting and cutting parts of him.
'I have to escape while trying to remember how he got here,' Then, an idea come to mind.
'I just have to severe the link,' he used the Mana in his real body to do just that, cutting the link between him and this place.
His vision turned dark once again.
