Xania and Anise walk around as they keep walking through obstacles and people, padding through them as they do the same to them.

  Passing through the highly advanced kingdom, 4-wheeled carriages pass by without horses to help with only divinity along with light from poles, sounds from rectangular devices as Anise attempts to take some of them for research, her hands passing through them completely.

  “Anise, look there,” Xania said as she pointed towards the building in the center, the building being the largest with a transparent dome-shaped roof and divinity almost as high as Xania's average output while fighting leaving the walls of the building.

  “That's probably where we have to go,” Xania said while Anise gives up on trying to take the divinity-powered devices and walks beside Xania who teleports them in front of the building at the entrance where strangely enough, despite having an opening, the divinity doesn't seem to be rushing out like crazy.

  “Anise, are you read—” Xania said as she looked beside her to where Anise is supposed to be before realising she already ran in, excited to study anything and everything she can see.

  “Anise, wait up! We don't know if there's anything dangerous here!” Xania shouts out to Anise before chasing her, eventually catching up and stopping her as she stops in front of a massive floating core—rings circling it with the core filled to the brim with divinity, bouncing around inside at insanely high speeds, somehow not escaping the core, causing a massive constant glow inside of it.

  “Woah…” Anise said, teaching her hands out to touch it as she passes through it, nearly falling much to her disappointment

  “Anise, why are you so fascinated by this? This should be doable for you, no?” Xania asked which caused Anise to turn around instantly.

  “My lord, your lack of knowledge on divinity is truly lacking despite having so much,” Anise said as she turns back to the core before continuing to speak, “divinity typically sleeps through walls or any material you can find unless the material is strong enough or the divinity is too less. Either that or it causes the material to break, which it will, eventually, but this material is holding up perfectly, reflecting divinity nonstop like a mirror.” Anise said while she admires the floating core.

  “Hey, Anise, do you feel that?” Xania said as both she and Anise feel a massive insurge of divinity from above, far above.

  They leave the building as they hear people shouting outside, preparing for a fight as the once human individuals suddenly gain demonic features, hiding them previously.

  “We can hide these?” Xania asked as she turned to Anise, pointing to her tail, horns and tail.

  “You didn't know?” Anise responds back, surprised Xania never tried it before.

  “No, I didn't see anybody do it so I never knew I could? Do they just pop in like a turtle?” Xania asked while the divinity above kept increasing.

  This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.

  “It's by magic… we're demons, not turtles.” Anise said while looking up, making fingers out of mana and pinches Xania's lips shut.

  Xania looks up as she gets rid of the mana made fingers on her lips as cracks start appearing in the ceiling above them.

  “Hey Anise, what's happening?” Xania asked as Anise turned to her for a moment, staring before stopping again and turning back to the ceiling.

  “Heyyyy, Anise,” Xania keeps bothering Anise as she slowly gets annoyed.

  “My lord! You're the type of person to go to a play with another person for the first time and keep asking questions aren't you? Just watch and shut up!” Anise shouts, surprising Xania with her sudden outburst.

  “Alright, I got it, calm down,” Xania said as she looked up at the ceiling with cracks slowly appearing and getting bigger despite how strong the material was before with Xania unable to even scratch it.

  The demons finally get themselves prepared in groups of 10 each as they prepare magic with divinity with magic circles completely unknown to Anise and Xania.

  Xania keeps watching the scene unfold like watching a show as Anise panicky memorized as much as possible, even considering using mana to burn some of the circles into herself but deciding against it after an odd amount of thinking.

  As the ceiling finally breaks open, debris falls down, getting shot before landing on anybody with many different races jumping in, each much weaker than the demons but overwhelming the demons using their numbers.

  “That's cheating,” Xania said, clearly unhappy with how the demons are losing because of having lesser soldiers.

  “I assume they're at war my lord, cheating or anything for that matter downstairs matter in war, only winning does,” Anise said, somewhat surprising Xania.

  “Didn't you enjoy non-cheating fights?” Xania asked with Anise nodding in response.

  “But it's different, war you have something to lose for me I enjoy fighting fairly but only when nobody has anything to lose,” Anise said, helping Xania finally understand why Anise is willing to vest to win bets by gets annoyed when she cheats during their rare but somewhat occasional spars with mana only.

  As the fighting continues, the woman with blue hair and the one with red appear, the blue one sending down hundreds of attacks with divinity as the red one protects the buildings with divinity.

  “Wow, what an absurd amount of divinity,” Xania said with Anise nodding in response, not really listening to her and trying to memorise the magic circles and magic used by the two figures whose faces are still blurred but not as much.

  Their surroundings suddenly change into a white room where the blue and red figures stand, their faces and bodies completely censored with only part of their hair exposed.

  “This is a problem,” the blue-haired one said, “you weren't meant to see this yet but…” the blue-haired one continued, her head turning to the red-haired one for a moment before turning back to Anise and Xania.

  “Hey, wait! You're the two weirdos in the area with the key given by Davien!” Xania shouts, realising after finding their voices are the exact same.

  “That does not matter, not yet, you two should mention this to no one, especially not… ‘Davien’ or whatever he's called,” the blue haired one said as she got rid of the magic circles Anise had copied, intending to memorise them, annoying her severely.

  “You piece of—” Anise shouts before the surroundings change back to their original position, back beside the core of the underworld as Anise tries to mimic the magic circles but can't due to a complete lack of understanding much to her displeasure.

  “Anise, cheer up?” Xania said, knowing Anise will be sulking for the next few days.

  “My lord, do you think I can be bribed so easily like you?” Anise said, her voice really annoyed as Xania materialises multiple glass jars, placing divinity inside while steading it to make sure it doesn't start bouncing off and breaking the glass and create another phantom

  “Here, you've been asking for divinity for research right?” Xania passes her the hard as she gets slightly less annoyed before sighing.

  “Thanks… I guess…” Anise said as she teleports away, assumably to her laboratory while Xania teleports back to the bed room.
