Carefree Path of Dreams

The entire white Sacred Mountain turned black in an instant.

What kind of concept was this? To Demon Hunters, there was no doubt that the heavens had turned into hell!

This struck a blow to both their minds and faith!

If there wasn’t a problem with the nature of the original power, why would Sacred Mountain change color in a split-second?

Although the low-grade Demon Hunters wouldn’t think much about it, the high-grade Demon Hunters would think about this detail.

And this brought about instability.

"Impossible... Why did Sacred Mountain become like this? Could it be that we, the Demon Hunters, were wrong from the start... What exactly did we do in the past?"

An A-grade Demon Hunter had a mental breakdown after witnessing this scene and was instantly infected by the chaotic field. He went on to wildly shoot his partners around him.

To the point that, within the dark red light, scales began to appear on his body, and fangs grew in his mouth. He had degenerated into a demon!

As Demon Hunters that often used Sacred Water to train, they were, in fact, just one step away from becoming a degenerated demon.

Currently, with the addition of his mental breakdown, there was also the influence coming from Sacred Mountain’s radiation, as well as the constant bewitchment of the Evil Demons. This amplified this possibility limitlessly.

"The Evil Demon army actually failed to invade Sacred Mountain that time, but they were successful in leaving a brand on the mountain’s body. This time, with the blood offering of the city, they finally succeeded and reversed the nature of Sacred Mountain," Urias said as he smiled and looked at Longinus.

After losing the support from Sacred Mountain, the original Sacred Spear was still glowing brightly but could no longer spread throughout the whole city.

On the other hand, the Evil Demons cheered happily and began to become arrogant.

"Wipe out all the Demon Hunters!"

"Destroy the Sacred Weapons!"

"Darkness will definitely rule the world and rebuild the Dark Empire!"

...

"Sir!"

In this situation, even the Titled Demon Hunters looked at Longinus with worried expressions.

"We cannot ruin the hard work of the first generation Evil Demon hunters and the contributions of the previous generations of Sacred Weapon holders with our hands!"

Longinus had a determined look, and his back was upright like a javelin. He raised his sacred gun high in the air and shouted, "Kill!"

Buzz!

The spear point of the sacred spear shone with a blood-red light, and suddenly, as if it had stabbed through space, it went to the front of an Evil Demon.

Poof!

The spear point stabbed into the chest of the Evil Demon without any resistance. Brilliant sacred light exploded like a small sun. The Evil Demon within it instantly turned to ashes.

"No one can be a match for us!"

"No one can be a match for us!"

Even without the support from Sacred Mountain, Longinus’s spear was still the rank 1 offensive Sacred Weapon. It attacked and killed an Evil Demon like it was as easy as pie.

Witnessing this scene, the morale of the Demon Hunters instantly rose.

Cosmo, Zoro, and Ainz, who appeared, bellowed loudly, "Humans! You made use of our powers to go against us... That traitor’s mistake must be corrected today!"

...

Large library.

As the center of the Demon Hunter headquarters information stockpile, Fang Yuan was a regular customer here.

Of course, due to his identity and rights, he couldn’t enter some of the top-secret areas.

However, now was a golden opportunity bestowed to him by the heavens.

A large number of Titled Demon Hunters were mobilized due to the Evil Demon invasion. Even though there were still some members keeping guard, the defense was definitely much more flawed.

The main point was that the nature of Sacred Mountain had suddenly changed, and dark red light enveloped the entire mountain. It basically turned this place into hell!

Even Titled Demon Hunters who stayed on Sacred Mountain would be affected by it!

Many seals and traps, that were previously set up, made fragile sounds and were ruined.

"You’re good!"

Fang Yuan looked at the brilliance on the ground and heard the agonizing screams of many Demon Hunters outside. Regardless, he acted as if a breeze passed by.

"Analyzing, this is only a large change, but this time it changed the Sacred Water’s sacred power, into the Evil Demon’s original power!"

As long as it was power, it could be controlled!

Based on the confidence he had in his body, and the many experiments he performed on changing the nature of power, he could also adapt quickly, even if he became an Evil Demon.

However, it was clear that other Demon Hunters didn’t have such an ability.

"This is really fortunate..."

While he was invisible, Fang Yuan came to the large library. The public area had long become empty, and some books fell onto the floor, obviously in a complete mess.

"Level 2! Level 3!"

His steps didn’t stop as he went straight to the entrance of the top-secret area on level 4.

At this moment, the two honorable stone statues and the guarding mechanism both lost their source of power due to Sacred Mountain. They were completely on strike, causing Fang Yuan to say out loud how lucky he was before he walked right in.

"’Legends of Titled Demon Hunters’!"

"’Secret of Hundred Years’ Hunt of Witch’s Movement’!"

"’Evil Demon Autopsy Study’!"

"’Degenerated Demon Hunters List’!"

...

Looking at the tomes on the bookshelves, where even their covers possessed a kind of taboo, even Fang Yuan had stopped his impulsive plundering.

"But the truly classified things must be above!"

Promptly, he suppressed his desires and become as calm as ever. "Although the library was known to have only four levels, I know that there’s still a level 5, and there’s always a Titled Demon Hunter guarding it!"

Level 4 was already very small. Based on the traces he found from his magic energy, he moved away a bookshelf and immediately found a door.

After opening the door, a large presence instantly blurted out, "Who is it?"

"Titled Demon Hunters?"

Fang Yuan laughed coldly and charged straight ahead.

The journey passed by in a blink of an eye, and he promptly saw a small room. The Demon Hunter inside was charging out, but his face was filled with a perplexed look.

Even with the senses of a Power Obtainer, he still didn’t discover traces of the invader!

"Die, path blocker!"

At that moment, Fang Yuan moved viciously.

From nothingness, a gun barrel suddenly extended out. A strong power accumulated, bringing with it a shocking threat.

"This is... Monster Sob!"

The opposing Demon Hunter could only make a dazed comment, and promptly—Bang!!!

After the loud noise from the gun, a large hole was blown through his brains, and his corpse collapsed onto the floor.

"Did you really think that a sniper cannot shoot in close range?"

Fang Yuan blew at the barrel of the gun and sighed emotionally.

Under the protection of Ternetheo’s skin and the large damaging effect of Monster Sob, a Titled Demon Hunter was taken by surprise and killed.

Of course, this was also due to the fact that the opponent wasn’t prepared.

If this Demon Hunter knew that his opponent had the gun—Monster Sob—he definitely wouldn’t have died in such a depressing way.

However, the victor couldn’t wait and had already begun to wander around with his war trophy now.

The area of this hidden fifth level was very small; it only had a closed-door cabinet with a line of book racks, and the books were all about history—The history of Demon Hunters!

"Dead Sea Ancient Scroll... doesn’t seem to be here!"

Fang Yuan removed the first book, opened up the rotting pages, and carefully read the information in the book, it was already extremely shocking at the start.

"The name of the first generation Evil Demon Hunter was Dante, the Evil Demon King, and he was the owner of Desire!"

"In the final years of the Dark Empire, the owner of Desire found warriors amongst the humans, gave them three Sacred Weapons, and personally nurtured the second generation of Demon Hunters!"

"Dante is the first ancestor of all Evil Demon Hunters, at the price of its life, it sealed the Mother of Reproduction and tore up the sealing object—Dead Sea Ancient Scroll—and scattered it everywhere. Dead Sea Ancient Scroll cannot be destroyed. The seal on the Mother of Reproduction can only be released through gathering all pages of the scroll. Every Demon Hunter swore to prevent this from happening."

"Taking orders at the behest of the deceased owner of Desire, Evil Demon Hunters formed the Demon Hunter Union and went against the Night Family Clans, finally overthrowing the Empire..."

...

The start of the Demon Hunters’ history didn’t include a timeline, as human empires and kingdoms weren’t created.

Moreover, there didn’t seem to be any culture as it was only a display record.

However, Fang Yuan believed that if any of this information was released, it would invite a mighty uproar!

"The source of Demon Hunters was indeed the Evil Demons. Moreover, it was the strongest Evil Demon King—owner of Desire—Dante!"

Fang Yuan shook his head. "This Evil Demon, who was the strongest amongst them all, actually betrayed its own race and even sealed the Mother of Reproduction... this is too unbelievable!"

However, this was also logical.

Within the Dark Empire, humans were at the bottom of the food chain. Without the support of a major power, how could they rise up?

"Looks like the strict laws of physics in this world, the abnormality of everything, roots back to the Mother of Reproduction!"

Fang Yuan’s pupils sparkled "Another path... is original power?"

...

Currently, within the sacred hall.

Mond and Aragón looked at the open sacred coffin. No words were spoken.

Inside the sacred coffin, quietly laid a young Demon Hunter. He was handsome, and his complexion was rosy, as though he was only sleeping.

There was only one wound at the location of his heart—this was dug out by Longinus’s spear.

Currently, his blood gushed out constantly and fell into the sacred cup, turning into Sacred Water.

"The first generation Demon Hunter... the owner of Desire... Dante!"

Aragón sighed with emotion, "It truly is the strongest Evil Demon. Even after death, the dead can still look alive, and it can still constantly produce blood. Even the wound created from the sacred spear will disappear after some time...

"True Sacred Water is created from the owner of Desire, an Evil Demon’s blood. After the transformation in the sacred cup, it can then produce Titled Demon Hunters in batches, this is also what we relied on to maintain righteous in the world!"

Mond sighed, "We humans are the true owners of this world. Even the previous Evil Demon King chose us!"

In actual fact, the second and third generations Demon Hunters also felt that it was unbelievable that an Evil Demon would stand on the side of humans.

After time passed, they could only explain it as the fate of humans to numb themselves—what was tragic was that in the end, most of the descendants just believed it without any doubts.

Even if it was the truth, this secret was only passed down amongst the Sacred Weapon holders and a few other Demon Hunters, and this secret was heavily guarded.

After all, if this information was made public, it would result in an enormous earthquake. Many Demon Hunters would definitely give up their faith.

"Compliments to you, Dante... you are the hope in hell!"

Aragón bowed to show his respect. "Until now, I’m still feeling skeptical. What did you believe in... was it humans that influence this Evil Demon king with their love?"

"I don’t believe it!"

Mond said slowly, "But according to the holders of the Sacred Coffin, that was passed down by word of mouth, although this owner of Desire’s body was that of an Evil Demon, its soul... was from a different world!"
