Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

Emilia was sleeping with her head resting on Sophia's stomach. While Nero was sleeping with his head resting on Emilia's stomach, and Sophia was sleeping with her head resting on Nero's stomach.

Their legs were on top of each other, and it was really a bizarre scene to look at.

Suddenly, Emilia opened her eyes and sat up as Nero's head slid from her stomach to her lap. Emilia glanced around and went back to sleep as her head bounced on Sophia's stomach.

Sophia made a painful expression on her face and opened her eyes. She blinked a couple of times before sitting up and seeing Emilia sleeping on her lap.

She furrowed her brows and raised Emilia's head before moving to the side. Then, she took a deep breath and let go of Emilia's head as it bumped on the ground.

Sophia was expecting Emilia to wake up and yell at her, but much to her surprise, Emilia didn't even flinch, which annoyed Sophia even more.

It was almost sunrise, and it had been only a few hours since they slept after their triple cultivation.

Sophia yawned and looked at her body, "Hmm?"

She was surprised to find herself in her human form rather than her angel form, as it had been more than 6 hours.

She immediately shook Nero and called his name, "Zeus."

"Zeus, wake up."

Nero opened his eyes and took a deep breath to smell his surrounding areas.

"Sophi? What's wrong?"

"Everything is wrong."

Nero sat up and tried to calm Sophia down.

"What happened?" Nero asked with a concerned look on his face.

"It has been more than 6 hours, but my form still hasn't changed."

Nero's eyes widened, and he was no longer feeling sleepy. "When was the last time you changed your form?"

"In the carriage, before we went to the church yesterday," Sophia replied.

"How many hours have passed since then? 8? 10?"

"9! I thought my form would change while sleeping, but it hasn't changed yet!" Sophia was freaking out, and Nero could feel how panicked she was.

"Try to change your form," Nero asked.

Sophia closed her eyes and changed to her angel form.

"Nice. You can change back. So why were you freaking out?" Nero questioned with a puzzled look on his face.

"All this time, the limit was 6 hours, so why did it change suddenly?"

"I don't know. Maybe because you have frequently been changing your form and spending almost all the time in your human form instead of your angel form?"

"But…"

Sophia wasn't convinced enough, but after Nero tried to explain to her, she felt reassured.

After the constant noise of Sophia yelling, Emilia woke up and rubbed her eyes.

"What's going on?"

Nero smiled and patted Emilia and Sophia's head, saying, "Get up. Today is the day."

Today, Nero was going to catch and kill Darius. He was waiting for this moment the entire time— he was finally going to get Emilia's revenge on Darius.

They got in the carriage and made their way to the new capital.

Emilia slept the entire way on the back of the carriage while Sophia spent her time with Nero.

"Where is the new capital?" Nero questioned.

"It should be around here," Sophia replied.

"It's been more than 10 hours, and we should have reached the new capital according to the map. But there is no sign of any capital."

Sophia pointed her gaze at the bunch of huts at some distance and suggested, "Let's ask them."

Nero waited for a while before deciding and uttered, "You go in the back of the carriage, and whatever happens, don't get out."

Sophia was confused, but she did as Nero asked.

Nero drove the carriage to the nearest hut and got off the carriage. He knocked on the door, but no one replied.

Annoyed, he opened the door only to find that hut was empty.

  Nero shrugged it off and went back to the carriage. They passed a few more huts, and Nero saw some more houses at a distance. He thought that those huts would be empty too, but he drove there regardless.

As Nero drove, he could feel as though someone was watching him, but he didn't let that stop him and kept going further.

After passing a few more huts, Nero could see men peeking from the houses. They were hiding all over the place. Some were in the shed, some were behind the tree, and some were behind the rocks.

Nero shook his head as he sighed and said in a loud voice, "Come out if you don't want to die!"

After a brief moment, a man walked out from the hut, then another and another. Soon, about fifty men gathered in front of Nero.

At first, Nero thought they were bandits or a bunch of criminals. But he found it strange that there was no woman in the group.

"I am looking for a way to the new capital. Show me the way, and I will spare your life."

No one said anything and started looking at each other.

"I am looking for a way to the new capital," Nero repeated.

This time too, no one replied.

Nero changed back to his original form and uttered, "Show me the way to the new capital."

Everyone immediately bowed their heads to the grounds and started weeping and waiting.

Nero was both freaked out and disgusted after seeing a bunch of grown men wailing like a dying goblin. And he was confused about why they were bowing down after seeing a demon.

One man raised his head and said, "You are standing in the new capital."

Nero raised his brows and asked with a confused look on his face, "This is the new capital?"

"It is indeed the new capital."

Nero glanced around and saw only hunts scattered all over the horizon.

"The old capital looked like a heaven compared to this shityard," Nero commented.

All the men raised their heads and begged Nero, "Please, help us."

They all looked in pain, as though their reason to live was stolen from them.

"Where is the palace?" Nero asked.

One man pointed his finger at the left without looking in the direction or saying anything.

Nero looked to the left and was awed in amazement.

There was a big wall, and it was so big that it was even above the clouds. It was the biggest wall Nero had seen in his life.
