Two days later, North East, few kilometers from the Dark Forest. Once you pass this forest, you will go to the Demon's continent; however, traversing this forest was not easy; some people never come back after going in.
Currently, Alex's group booked rooms in the ones of Cities' Inn you see before going into the Dark Forest.
Currently, the girls sat around Alex's bed. It has been two days, and yet Alex showed no sign of waking up, even Lilith was getting impatient as the closer they are to the Demon's continent, her hometown, the eager she was to make her brother suffer a considerable loss, also, she was feeling the call of something she was still unaware of what this thing could be. Still, she was sure once inside, she would find the answer.
Suddenly, Alex groaned and opened his eyes; at first, his eyes were crimson and blue in color before his right eye regained his original hue, green.
''Hi! Girls. How many days have I slept for?" Alex said as he raised his upper body to lean against the bed's head because his body was feeling weak at the moment.
''You slept for two days.. How are you feeling?" Sakuya was the one to talk.
''I'm fine. I guess we are close to the Dark Forest.'' Alex inquired as he could feel the evil energy in the air; it was too thick not to be noticed. The girls nodded.
''I see. Okay, don't worry, we will depart tomorrow. For now, can you please give some private time?"
''Sure!" Lilith said and dragged the reluctant Sakuya out of Alex's room.
''Sigh! What have I gotten myself dragged into? I don't like it at all.'' Alex rubbed his forehead as he remembered the dream he had and its implications.
〖Sure, even I'm shocked to see that there existed a civilization before us. The chaos race probably originated from there. Even though the feeling of being a mere chess piece is hard to swallow, it is temporary; once you are stronger, you get to decide which side to be on. So, the master never forgets what your goal is. As you never forget, one day you'll be the one to decide other fates, but currently, bear it as you are not strong enough. In every game they exist a loophole; I believe my sister and your unique constitution are one of them. Please keep trying, and you will one day win. Never let my sister go as the leader, the most terrifying existence on the chaos race side want to have her.〗As she had also seen that dream and understood few things, Silveria could not let Alex give up because he saw that everything was set up. She also didn't forget to tell him what he should never do.
'Don't worry; I have never once thought of giving up. I shall make everyone of them who thinks I'm mere chess piece pay. I must become stronger and find that lady. I believe she would be a boost to my strength. And believe me, I have no intention of letting Nyx go; she is mine and will always be.' Alex affirmed, Nyx, who was chained against the black throne, snorted but was pleased that Alex's determination didn't waver; she decided to quickly free herself to be there to guide him, to make him the greatest and the most feared of all.
''Status!" Alex decided to check out his status. And as though responding to his call, his status window appeared right before him.

''Tch! As I have feared, even a Rank 11 monster could even fill my XP bar. I'm still quite far from the next level. No wonder they said ascending level in the Saint Realm it's harder than ascending to Heaven. Time to check out my Asura Form. That's one hell of ability; I'm in love with it.'' Alex said as he checked the description of the Asura Form.
[Asura Form: A lost Ancient ability that consists of creating an Asura avatar holder of destruction.
The current level is insufficient.
Consume all the user Mana, and there's a risk of falling into an unconscious state after using it. The stronger is the opponent, the stronger his avatar will be and the more forms he can use.]
''I see no wonder I fell unconscious shortly after using it. Well, I need to increase my MP to be able to use this ability without fainting afterward. I'm curious about what kind of ultimate form my avatar will have? Will he be like the one the crimson lady used? Letting me switch weapons as I wish?" Alex's eyes shined; he couldn't wait to see what his Asura ultimate form would be. He was getting more and more interested in the crimson lady known as the last Asura.
Alex was too focused elsewhere. If not, he would have noticed the question mark beside his race. It means his original race was changing as to what it would change to; only time could tell.
〖Your contract with this mysterious woman can be considered a blessing in disguise. You better make use of what she left you. I believe that only the type of the iceberg we have seen right now.〗
Although jealous of the Gift left to Alex by the crimson-haired lady, Silveria knew what was important. After discussing with Silveria their next actions, Alex joined the others; tomorrow, they will depart for the demon's continent.
