The sun was beginning to show on the horizon, the moons were still visible in the sky, the cool breeze touched the faces of two creatures passing through the gates of the walls that surrounded the tower.

There were a total of 3 walls surrounding the tower, being a source of resources the nation protected so that no people could enter freely.

In the past, there were 4 big wars. There were all races against each other. In the first war, there were conflicts over resources such as territory and food between races. Some human cities joined with demi-humans who did not feed on humans and defend themselves, creating an alliance called empire, which would be a country.

In the first war, the kingdom already had some power and can fight the invaders, and since then, the humans who are born hate the Demi-human until today, even though there are some who live in the kingdom, but many suffer racism.

Paarthurnax witnessed 3 of the great wars. When paarthurnax slept, there was another one, but paarthurnax has no information about this war. It's like everything about it was destroyed so no one could remember.

~I need information, but there's nothing in books. Should I look for seraphins? No, these creatures I must avoid getting close to, they are disgusting~

While paarthurnax thought syra was calling him.

Paarthurnax: all right? There's something wrong?

Syra: no, it's just that we can come in now. These IDs are really very useful.

Paarthurnax and syra walked the tower, approaching syra saw all the tower's beauty. The dark tone gave a malevolent aura. Still, there were many creatures close by and did not find it strange, the tower was something she had never seen a structure of this height, she didn't know how the tower stays on the ground, it looked like it was going to fall.

But that was syra's view; for paarthurnax, it was different. The tower had automatic repair systems of its structure, but several walls were missing, and some rocks fell to the ground. The tower in the past had an orb on its top, but that orb no longer existed. The tower was in critical condition for paarthurnax. He knew that in time some beings might try to enter the tower but knew they wouldn't be able to spoil the tower that far.

~ This looks worse than I thought. What's going on here?~

Paarthurnax and syra passed by several adventurers, and everyone was with looks of admiration and respect. The newer Adamantite adventurers would not be treated any other way, and upon learning that they would start climbing the tower floors, they were excited. So far, there were no Adamantite adventurers interested in the tower, everyone considered it to be death, but they were still in doubt, as all Adamantite adventurers refused direct orders from the king and guild leader, both were refused by the adventurers.

If the highest-ranking adventurers refused, it would not be something to be taken lightly, but if they conquer a new floor, it would be a milestone in the history of the empire. For a long time, no new floor was dominated, and every time it was conquered, people who went to Raid were imprinted in the history of the empire.

Paarthurnax and syra arrived near the main gate of the tower. When they went through, an orc interrupted him.

Orc, gate guard: to gain access, we need confirmations on your IDs. Otherwise, if you don't have it, leave the region; if we confirm that you don't have access and don't leave by choice, we'll use force.

Even though the Orc saw the Adamantite plate, he spoke anyway; even though he was Adamantite, he would need permission from the guild.

Paarthurnax: Of course, our IDs are here.

Paarthurnax handed the IDs to the Orc, who gave them to an orc near the gate.

When the Orc confirmed, he handed over the IDs and spoke.

Orc, gate guard: the things I said sound like a joke, use force on adventurers Adamantita HAHAAHAHHA.

A scandalous laugh came from the Orc.

The Orc had a formidable battle force, which allowed him to be the tower guard, not even 4 Orichalcum adventurers could bring him down, but it was not the case for an Adamantite warrior.

Syra: really, he is very powerful, unlike me.

The Orc looked at Syra's necklace, and the IDs confirmed that the two were Adamantite and were surprised.

Orc: really? Glad I'm not your enemy. I pity whoever it is.

Paarthurnax: I met an orc a while ago, he was a detestable being, but I think I was too quick to believe that everyone is like that. I apologize.

Orc, gate guard: you don't need to say something like that. It doesn't apply to every one of my races. Only some manage to have the intelligence to live with others beyond their race.

Paarthurnax: That's true, but allow me to redeem myself for finding something like that about you.

Paarthurnax took a ring from his inventory.

The Orc was scared because his hand disappeared and when he came back a ring appeared in his hand.

Orc, gate guard: a gift from an Adamantite, I am incredibly grateful.

The Orc refused more than once, but paarthurnax still gave him a ring.

The anal had magic that allowed that if the person using it could return to life, but he lost a part of his status to revive, but the Orc didn't know that.

The Orc opened the gate, and paarthurnax and syra entered.

Syra: Why did you give him such a gift?

Paarthurnax: I can see through appearances, I have seen his spirit, and he is someone who should be saved at least once. And even so, the magic it has in the ring is weak to the point that it consumes life force and reduces the status of the resurrected one; it is weak. That is why.

Syra: ok, but first, do you know how we're going to go up the 13 floors? Will we walk by the floor to climb to the top?

Paarthurnax: No, to something I can use for being the creator of the tower.

Paarthurnax and syra approached the central area of ​​the tower, in it there was a river whose water was infinite, there were several divisions in the river, all of which supplied drinking water to the entire city and some cities a little near the capital, but not all towns and cities could access, for this reason, the capital of the empire was one of the cities that had the highest value in their residence, even for a standard house in the lower area of ​​the city it had a higher value than usual.

But villages could still use this water. Storage magic allowed this; a gallon of water could supply a village crop for a whole month, as the water did not have much value. Still, the dear one was magic and the gallon being a coin of Gold and 7 silver coins, but by selling their crops, villages could survive this cycle for a long time.

In the region and the central area of ​​the tower, there were stalls with merchants selling medicines, potions, and even weapons and armor. Still, it was possible to find all this in the city's commercial area is even better. Inside the tower, there was only what was necessary for the adventurers, but things of high value or better were sold in the city's commercial area. This was just to replace if missing.

Further away from the central area could see some adventurers killing wolves that came close to the region. Of these wolves, only the skin was used for leather. Being better wolves than native forest wolves, the hide had better property, but the meat could not be used for food

The right-hand side of the tower was clear as day, as the tower had artificial lighting that mimicked sunlight, so the vision wasn't an issue for anyone entering the tower.

After syra and paarthurnax had moved away from the central region, they went east, coming to a tower wall, which had nothing but stone.

Syra: is this what you were looking for?

Paarthurnax: yes, each floor can be managed by a panel, but at the top, you can handle everything from there.

Syra saw a glass with a blue light coming out of the wall as if it were intangible when paarthurnax touched the wall.

The glass changed what it was showing each time paarthurnax touched it.

Syra: what am I this, is using magic?

Paarthurnax: no, this is created to manage this area. It has all the information about this floor and shows each area of ​​the floor in real-time.

Paarthurnax showed the central area of ​​the tower, and she could see several people moving, and then paarthurnax moved to another region. She noticed several monsters, and paarthurnax continued to show her the floor, all with the device in her hand.

Syra: So this just shows *vision* divination magic?

The *vision* divination spell allowed the caster to create an extrasensory sense and put together an eye that allowed him to see distant areas.

Paarthurnax: no, he has a safety net and devices that allow him to see the entire area and analyze the floor

Syra: I can't understand it yet

Paarthurnax: That's not surprising. I got a lot of devices superior to this one on a planet that doesn't have the power of magic; on that planet, the primary source of knowledge is what they call science, it allowed them to talk to another country without any use of magic, create machines that allowed them to fly over to other continents. They have a device like the one in my hand. Almost everyone in their population had one sign that allowed them to share all kinds of information with anyone without any problems or delays.

Syra: Wow, this seems like the dream that magic wants to reach. Even talking to distant people is difficult, but I can't imagine how it's possible without magic.

Paarthurnax: This is something they have created and improved over their millennia. a curiosity they have the same star called the sun and solar system like this one, it seems that the specters they created decided not to allow them to use magic

Syra: I can't imagine something without magic, but it seems like they were more advanced than us just being able to talk to other people at long distances without using magic and still sharing information with everyone. That's amazing. It feels like a utopia, like that. How are these people?

Paarthurnax: It's been a long time since I went to their solar system, but there were only humans and creatures that couldn't magic when I went.

Syra: humans? Humans got any of this greatness? This is amazing. Can I have one of those devices they own?

Paarthurnax: Of course, but I think you would need to learn the various languages ​​these humans spoke. Would they have a problem?

Syra: learn multiple languages? Why?

Paarthurnax: their planet was divided among many countries, and many countries had their own language and culture

Syra: Is this an idiot thing. How did they communicate with other countries?

Paarthurnax: Many humans would have to learn if they want to access something from other countries, but they had a more common language that made it easier to use. Still, it is something that hindered many things in their development. But it's not something complicated for you. With your intelligence, you can quickly learn the 11 main languages ​​.

Syra: OK, but can I use it in our language too? To match you with these devices?

Paarthurnax: yes, but this device is not something you can't take anywhere. It must be in a place that no one can access; I will arrange it all for you.

Syra: thank you

With a smile on her face, syra saw a wall opened, a cubicle that would fit 7 people opened.

Paarthurnax entered and syra followed him paarthurnax

Paarthurnax: this is something that was created by them too. It allows them to move vertically.

Syra: not having magic seems to add a lot of limits too

Paarthurnax was on a panel, and every floor that passed felt it was in critical condition; the tower was just keeping the essentials to stay on. Paarthurnax thought this was strange. The tower would be able to keep up for 200,000 years, and the last time paarthurnax came to the tower was 104,800 years ago. The tower should have been in excellent condition still.

Paarthurnax was reaching the top of the tower, but he stopped on the twelfth floor. Something didn't allow him to go up.

He couldn't get past security on the next floor.

Paarthurnax: There is something wrong. Wear your armor.

Syra used magic that paarthurnax created for her.

The magic allowed her to switch between her clothes without wasting time.

Syra put on her black armor and drew her sword, and went into guard.

Paarthurnax was in an area of ​​the floor that had no monsters nearby.

paarthurnax: do you know how monsters are classified by the guild?

Syra: Very little, I only saw one book, but from what I understand, it's a challenge. Weak monsters are level 1 to level 20, but the guild doesn't use this system much. They use 1 to 200 to determine monster challenge one more accurately.

Paarthurnax: well, if it's like that, there are two monsters you should be concerned about. I'll define it in the guild system; it has a 300 challenge, each of the floors we pass has monsters of that same challenge.

Syra: I don't know the strength of a 300 challenge monster, but I can imagine, but am I stronger than them?

Paarthurnax: if you faced them both, you would win easily. They are monsters that cannot be underestimated.

Syra: what monsters are these?

Paarthurnax: marilith and a nalfeshnee. The two fight side by side to defend this floor.

Syra: I've never heard these names

Paarthurnax: They are beings from another planet, but I created them to protect the tower. Now time to go. Be prepared for an attack from the sky and with teleport.

Paarthurnax and Syra walked towards the staircase that would lead to the top floor, there were several monsters in the way, but they were killed.

Paarthurnax began to analyze the floor he had created. The penultimate floor was a floor based on mountains, with its elevated terrain, rocks, and minerals sampled in several places. There was not much grass on the ground, only minerals and stones, on top there was a layer of ice, but it was only at the top of the mountain, there was a small plain at the base of the hill, but the plain would disappear if you walked for just 5 minutes.

Paarthurnax used a counter magic every time he approached.

*teleportation delay*

To deny immediate teleport.

Paarthurnax and Syra arrived in an area with flat terrain, without any imperfections. As the part they were on was steep to have such a region, it was something created as the part they were on was steep to have such a region.

Paarthurnax: we arrived, but there is no one

Syra: is this normal?

Paarthurnax: Well, considering the battle style of each sim.

A shimmering multicolored light in the sky was seen. Syra looked at it and began to feel horror in her mind.

Syra was in space, but she saw a dragon in space hitting her repeatedly, she could feel the pain in her body, she was thrown into an asteroid, she couldn't react, she tried to defend herself, but she wasn't strong enough, her body it was bleeding, its arms and legs were almost torn off, and at the last moment the dragon spoke: you are not my daughter, you are just a creature that I used for my benefit. When the dragon finished speaking, she felt her life leave her body.

Paarthurnax was unaffected by the magic that caused terror. He would have to help syra.

*mental fortress*

Syra came back to reality, but her mind was still in terror as she remembered what she had seen, and it seemed she could still feel the pain. She saw paarthurnax near her, tears were on her face, and she started to pull away from him in fear.

Paarthurnax fumed at the creature that cast the spell, syra's mind was in chaos, and she was in a terrible state.

~I WILL DESTROY THE AMEBA THAT DID THIS TO SYRA. No, it will be something worse~

Paarthurnax used protection magic on syra. He would have to protect her. Paarthurnax used a spell that no creature would have mana or could use without completely destroying itself to use

*supernova protection*

A bubble surrounded syra, and two rings were on the right and left that came out of the bubble.

Paarthurnax left her protected from anything that might attack her.

and retaliated

*Reveal, presence of life, all aura detection, deny astral plane*

Paarthurnax could see everything around her. No form of camouflage or shadow magic could slip past paarthurnax unseen.

He saw the pair of monsters on top of the mountain.

The monsters realized that they were sighted and used teleport to change their position, but paarthurnax wouldn't let it. The delay in teleportation was activated when the monsters used their teleport magic. They would be stuck for a second in their places that used their teleport.

Paarthurnax knew their location; he let his primordial dragon aura out. Syra couldn't feel it, but unlike them, the marilith and nalfeshnee could; the horror was more potent than what syra felt. They saw the strength of paarthurnax, they were trying to get out of where they were trapped, but the magic wasn't over yet

Paarthurnax used one of his passive abilities.

*The eye that sees everything *

He saw every status, life, mana, about the creature that used the spell.

He looked at the nalfeshnee. His mouth had two big teeth coming out of his mouth, he had a pig's nose, apart from his belly, his whole body had black fur, and he had two wings.

His body trembled with fear, and paarthurnax spoke.

Paarthurnax: You are a being who has enough intelligence, even with a cognitive notion of an ant.

nalfeshnee: yes, forgive us for attacking such a powerful creature. We realize our mistake.

The teleportation delay magic had passed, and now he was on the ground on his knees, seeking forgiveness.

Paarthurnax: do you think attacking me bothers me? You don't even understand why I retaliated.

Paarthurnax pointed to syra, who was still in effect but was slowly wearing off.

nalfeshnee: she? Just a human?

Paarthurnax was angry at his words. Preparing a corrosive spell and leaving it inside nalfeshnee's body, he screamed in pain for 50 seconds until he died, but paarthurnax wasn't finished yet. He used magic resurrection magic.

The nalfeshnee was in agony. He was killed and came back to life. But before saying something. He was dead again. When he revived, paarthurnax repeated what he had done, and he was brought back to life again.

nalfeshnee: Please... I beg you...

nalfeshnee couldn't finish; his mind was in agony

Paarthurnax: stop? Was that what he was going to say? This is just the beginning; this was something fast. For millennia you'll experience slow death over and over again of a different kind, and I'm going to wear something special to make sure you don't lose your mind and go crazy.

A portal appeared beside him, and paarthurnax dragged the nalfeshnee inside.

It had a vacuum, which nalfeshnee would spend several ages, and it was dark, but it was possible to see some rooms. These rooms had creatures who shouted, asked to stop or asked for forgiveness, but no one answered them. Some beings tried to kill themselves but came back to life with revival magic.

nalfeshnee: what is this creature? Why are there so many people here? he is a demon. No, he must be the demon king.

When he will say something else. Something pulled him, and he started to scream.

The marilith that had 4 arms that held swords was powerless to hold them, her snake body, trying to keep upright, but with fear, she was on the ground, like a snake crawling begging for forgiveness.

Paarthurnax: You didn't do anything to her, but you will still die from wanting to attack her.

Paarthurnax uses necromantic magic.

*Break spirit*

An instant death spell was cast, the marilith's life vanished.

Now that paarthurnax had taken care of the misfortunes, he would have to take care of syra.

He canceled the barrier. He took Syra in his arms to try to calm her down.

Paarthurnax wiped his tear-streaked face, hugged her, and used the Fortress mind magic once more.

After a few minutes, syra's mind was slowly returning to normal. Syra knew everything that was going on, she understood what paarthurnax was talking about, but she couldn't answer him or gesture to him.

Paarthurnax had created a cabin with magic and placed it inside to rest. And she slept in bed.

After a while, syra woke up in a better state. She remembered everything that had happened, magic created horror in her mind and her greatest fear.

When she left the hut, she saw paarthurnax in his armor; he was enchanting with mental protection spells.

Syra: This was just something my mind made up, don't try so hard.

Paarthurnax: You must go back to rest.

Syra: I don't need it anymore, it's okay.

Paarthurnax: I should have put something on for mental protection. That was a mistake.

Syra sit beside the paarthurnax.

Syra: So even the creator can't predict what might happen.

Paarthurnax: I can't, at least not yet. I have a lot to do and gain more power.

Syra: wow, it was just a joke, but if you're going to choose this path, remember I'm going along no matter if I have to hold your tracks, I said that before.

Paarthurnax: syra, there's something wrong with the tower; it doesn't recognize my commands. When we go up to the next floor, we need to take care of ourselves, especially you.

Syra: I will.

Paarthurnax dismantled the magic hut. Sometimes after walking, paarthurnax and syra climbed to the top of the mountain; the freezing wind did not affect syra nor paarthurnax, at the top, they could see the entire floor, but there was something that didn't belong to their place, a stairway appeared when they approached, it was hidden with magic, but paarthurnax knew everything about the tower-like: hiding place, portals, stairs, monsters, vegetation, terrain and more.

They started to climb the stairs, after 1 minute of walking on a spiral staircase they reached the top floor.

It was clear as a sunny day. The green lawn was everywhere, mountains in the background, clouds in the sky, trees mostly palm trees, but something new seemed to be out of place. A building in the shape of a decagon, a seems that thinned along the way up that stopped between 2 meters to touch each other, each edge had a white pillar that followed to the top, the wall was of blue glass that reflected almost all the light, it looked like a mirror, but it wasn't.

Syra: that building is beautiful

Paarthurnax: that's where what we need. The tower control and the commanding golem.

Syra: do you want me to go? I can only fumble if I go.

Paarthurnax: don't worry, I'll just go to the main panel and talk to the golem.

They went to the building. At the entrance, there was an open area on the wall to allow entry.

Entering, they saw a huge garden, the variety of colors was something they never managed to put in a garden, but in this garden, it had an immensity of color. Right in the center was a square with a tree that almost reached the top. The leaves were pink, the trunk light brown that had white and pink pigmentation.

There was a creature with lush plumage on a branch, intensely colored in shades of white, black, and gold.

When paarthurnax and syra approached, the creature opened its feather fan.

Syra: what is this creature? it's the golem

Paarthurnax: yes, now he is in his animal form, a peacock, but there is something wrong

The golem was being aggressive; it didn't recognize paarthurnax as its creator. It was in automatic mode, just protecting itself in case something got inside.

Paarthurnax: don't you remember me? It may have been a long time, but you haven't forgotten your creator. I know

Golem: You entered a forbidden place. You will die for it.

The golem has transformed to its original form,
Its body was the size of paarthurnax, its plumage went from head to toe, when it was almost touching the ground it curved up gracefully, the plumage covered its body, but its feathers could still be seen, a foot with 3 fingers and a long toenail could be noticed, a blue scale that went to the top of the shin, which had a small plumage that reached to the foot.

Its head had a beak, and its eyes split to left and right.

 

 

 

 

Paarthurnax looked at the golem and saw several imperfections, cracks, loss of color tone, and some damaged circuits.

~ what happened here?~

Paarthurnax knew the golem wasn't friendly, so he used teleportation to get syra away without hesitation.

The golem used its feathers as spears that pursued its target, but paarthurnax stayed put. The deadly feathers looked just like normal feathers when they hit paarthurnax.

paarthurnax received all the feathers. When they touched his body, they seemed to be as soft as a pillow.

Paarthurnax: Recognize your master.

The golem just ignored it, and a bow appeared in the air, the top was no longer covered, and you could see his hands, the golem took the bow, and the arrow with a huge glow went towards paarthurnax.

Paarthurnax saw the arrow coming towards him, but it seemed in slow motion. He knew that this arrow could blow up this whole area if there was an arrow explosion. Still, he wouldn't allow it. Paarthurnax caught the arrow in the air with his hand and made the arrow dissolve; a powder fell from his hand.

Golem: Threat level max level uses maximum strength.

Paarthurnax knew what that meant.

Paarthurnax: Recognize your paarthurnax master.

Golem: you are not him. You will pay for using my master's name.

Paarthurnax understood the situation and began to correct it.

Paarthurnax reverted to his dragon form.

The bow that had been in his hand disappeared, and its plumage returned to normal, covering his body.

Golem: Master, forgive me, I didn't have file data about his form.

His body and face didn't have any expression, but he still had emotions much reduced because he was a golem. Emotions wouldn't be perceived physically but mentally.

Paarthurnax: It's understandable, I've been using it for a little while, but I want you to answer some questions. What is happening to the tower? Why are you like this?

Looking closer saw even more imperfections, minor flaws of color, and its feathers lost their length.

Golem: the tower has been in trouble since 5,000 years ago, its strength and energy are being slowly sucked away by something I can't determine what it is, but it's a parasite that I can't get rid of, even destroying them all comeback.

Paarthurnax: are the first four floors?

Golem: No, these floors don't consume almost zero energy because they have monsters and weak resources. The problem is in the sixth to the eleventh, its resources are being sucked in an amount that was spent more than 87.36% of the energy. Many creatures that live there are killed at birth, and the ores and other things disappear instantly, but if I didn't keep replenishing the materials, it would start to draw energy directly from the tower. This is what was the most chance to succeed in prolonging the life of the tower. And about my appearance, I had to move a lot of energy capacity, I wore out a lot.

Paarthurnax: Do you have more details on what's going on?

Golem: they are abyssal creatures, is all I know.

The golem spoke with a blank expression on his face.

Paarthurnax: I will call my mate.

Paarthurnax created the teleportation near syra, and she appeared in the garden.

An expression of surprise was on his face as he saw the true form of paarthurnax

~is this golem that strong?~ syra thought to herself

Syra: what happened?

Paarthurnax: a communication failure just that, I now have access to the tower.

Syra: So is everything all right now?

Paarthurnax: on the contrary, it's even worse. The tower is running out of energy in a very short time.

Syra: So you'll have to take out all the beings that entered the tower?

Paarthurnax: no, they are not a problem, we have to go visit other floors, but first

Paarthurnax reached his hand to the golem and touched it.

*Rebuild Creator*

All wear and tear, imperfections, and feathers returned to their beauty if the golem was restored when it was created. Only people who made the golem could repair a golem.

The beauty was now more apparent than ever, a peacock so beautiful, each feather was built one by one, the ripples were perfect, the glow was radiant.

Syra: It's beautiful. I never thought there would be an animal or creature as beautiful as this one. What is the breed name?

she asked paarthurnax

Paarthurnax: harlequin peacock, white with the primary hue, black in part of its body, and some details in the golden plumage. It's really something beautiful; it was a species that I created with my own hands. It's rare that the probability of two stars being twins: the same shape, material, and other aspects. It would be like finding a rock.

The golem showed no emotion but was happy that his master praised him.

Syra: Does that mean a golem has life?

Paarthurnax: yes, he has thought, way of thinking about life and goals and feelings even if it is almost nil

Syra: This is unimaginable to me. What is your name?

Paarthurnax: peacock harlequin golem

Syra: didn't you give her a name?

Paarthurnax: for her? Can you explain to her?

Paarthurnax asked the golem

Golem: I am not something biological. I work from code and data processing, something biological like male or female is not something that applies to me. My body doesn't need food, only energy provided by the magic circuits.

Syra: but do you have a name?

Golem: star-00 is how paarthurnax my creator left in the codes as something related to name issues

Paarthurnax:hmmm. Yes, you were made from the zero-star, so that's the appellation

Syra: Stella, it's similar to your name, what do you think?

Golem: You are not allowed to rename something that is written by my creator

Paarthurnax: star-00 I rename it to Stella, but its old name can still be used

Stella: of course, master, with your orders, my name is Stella.

Paarthurnax: now we must go down to analyze the tower, syra; go ahead, and I will need to charge the tower and Stella with energy. I'll get there quickly in the elevator. Here's the location.

Paarthurnax handed over a device just like the one that controlled the first floor. But this one just showed a map and couldn't interact with it.

Syra: OK, I'll meet you there.

After a few minutes, paarthurnax confirmed that Syria was close to the elevator, away from Stella and paarthurnax.

Stella: When will we start charging energy again?

Paarthurnax: This is just something to get syra away from. I don't want her to ask me about it. She is a curious person who wants information about most things.

Stella: So what are we here for?

Paarthurnax: I want you to modify the protocol: "alpha-omega primordial star" creates a layer above mine.

Stella: I need a second confirmation. Create a new layer above my creator in the "alpha-omega primordial star" protocol

Paarthurnax: Correct, I want you to do this.

Stella did not respond for a few seconds and returned to normal.

Stella: my master is created

Paarthurnax: You understand what I mean by that, right?

Stella: Yes, if something threatens her safety, I must use all my ability to protect her, but allow me to ask something disrespectful. If my master threatens her safety, shall I use the primordial star against you and others of my other abilities?

Paarthurnax: if something like this happens, you must protect her

Stella: but this is something that conflicts with my orders

Paarthurnax: then place the "Primary Star alpha-omega" protocol above the orders.

Stella: understood.

Paarthurnax: now we must find her, remember this is something I'm entrusting to you, but don't be overprotective. She has to evolve a lot yet and will never grow if she knows she's not at risk. Never talk about it, don't let it to know about it.

_________

The three were descending to the floor that was most energy-consuming, the eighth floor.

Arriving, they saw a volcanic terrain with rocks and ores. There was no kind of something natural in this part of the tower.

The principal ore was the red matter that was sensitive to living beings, it could kill a living being if it touched it, but for beings of abyssal origin, this material would benefit.

So paarthurnax knew there would be something connected about some demons that might have found this material and be feeding on it, but he couldn't access the security of this floor. Something was corrupting the signal.

The main area of ​​the eighth floor was the active volcano.

There was nothing different since they arrived at the floor, but as they walked towards the volcano paarthurnax, he felt the presence of thousands of abyssal beings at the entrance. He felt some, but the amount of now was somewhat exaggerated compared to the previous one.

syra saw Paarthurnax and Stella fly away and cast *fly* to follow them

The group was approaching the volcano. They began to fly over the image of thousands of demons inside the volcano, collecting red matter and a gigantic hell portal, with demons entering and leaving.

~ what are you doing here? You said you would be in hell forever. Why did she decide to do something like that? is she trying to piss me off? ~ paarthurnax thought about how much he questioned
