Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 186

Chapter 186: The Nest… Part-1.
As flying in the sky was completely useless and was even wasting mana, Jareth decided to walk towards the East direction with his own two feet.

‘As expected, this place is more dangerous in reality than it was in the game…’

Even the ground is corrupted with miasma, whenever his feet touch the ground, black mud tainted with miasma tries to corrupt him.

Not only the visibility is bad due to the brownish and dark fog lingering in the air, just walking normally is quite the ordeal.

If not for the fact that Jareth’s mana shield is quite strong and efficient, the miasma in the ground and in the dark fog would have already started to destroy and corrupt his mana shield.

Shin and the other grade-2 mages won’t even be able to make it past this vast barren land as they will run out of mana trying to constantly repair their mana shield again and again.

As for Mark and the others who aren’t even at grade-3 yet, it’s impossible to survive here for more than ten minutes.

*Krukrukrarar*

While Jareth was walking towards his goal, a familiar yet creepy voice rang out in his ears.

‘This voice…’

Jareth glanced towards his left and a hideous and creepy monster crawled out of the fog.

The monster had a rotting and decaying body like a fish, its innards and organs were hanging out of its horribly mutilated body and it had a humanoid face with an eerily wide grin on its face.

Its eyes seemed to show that the creature was in immense pain but the wide grin on its face showed that it was laughing and mocking everything around it.

Actually this is a sick joke of miasma that is toying with innocent lives.

Jareth knew exactly what this thing was, that’s why he didn’t hesitate for even a second and his grimoire shone with mana as a magic circle appeared in the air.

[Grade-5 Fire Magic: Flame Jet!]

An intense flame was fired by the magic circle which turned the monster into ashes instantly and didn’t give it time to even react.

But this wasn’t the end of it.

*Krkrrrarrarara*

Same creepy voices started to sound from all directions and most of them were hidden in the dark fog.

But Jareth has exceptionally strong hearing capabilities so he easily pinpointed the location and numbers of the enemies.

He immediately summoned multiple magic circles to fire more spells at once, but as he was delayed for a second in reacting, the huge group of monsters also got their chance to attack.

Two demon-like hands ripped apart the stomach of a crawling monster and a lesser demon made its way out of it’s body.

As its body was literally ripped apart from inside out while still alive, tears of blood flowed from the eyes of the monster as it had to endure immense pain.

Yet the grin on its face refused to fade away as if it was permanently fixed on its face.

Even in immense pain, the monster couldn’t even let out a shriek of pain and could only laugh eerily like a maniac while being ripped apart from inside out.

Jareth didn’t hesitate and immediately burned the lesser demon and the mutilated monster both to ashes with his true flames.

He didn’t even allow the lesser demon to open its wings and fly into the sky as he knew that if he let the demon fly then it would cause a massive headache.

Even lesser demons are capable of using miasma and are able to use miasma related demon magic since birth, if Jareth let them fly in the sky they will rain down miasmic spells on him like crazy.

Moreover lesser demons are very nimble and fast creatures, dealing with them will waste a lot of his mana, thus it’s better to burn them all when they are still inside the body of the mutilated monster.

These mutilated monsters are ‘humans’ turned into walking birth eggs for lesser demons.

There’s only one monster in the Abyss Altar Area who can turn humans into walking incubators for Demons.

‘It seems I am on the right path, ‘Its’ nest must be in this direction if these monsters are present here…’

These walking incubators have their limbs shortened to the point that they can’t even commit suicide and their faces have that permanent grin because their jaw bone structure has been forcefully mutated by miasmic corruption.

No matter if they are sad or are crying, all they can do is just grin and laugh and can’t even show sadness or pain.

This is the cruel reality of those afflicted by the curse of corruption, you suffer endlessly till you die and then the sea of miasma swallows your soul to further torture you endlessly.

This is an endless cycle of pain and suffering, it never ends.

The name ‘Abyss Altar’ is no joke, it literally is an Abyss like place where pain and suffering are the only things you will find.

*KHeheheheheh*

Some of the monsters even started to laugh and grin more humanely at Jareth when they saw him slaughter their kin.

They were actually feeling fear of death and a long lost hope for salvation, but all they could do at the moment was laugh like creeps and try to endure the pain of being ripped apart from inside.

These monsters are not harmful by themselves and are just creepy and tragic, but the lesser demons that breaks out of their body are definitely not weak.

Even the lesser demons, that are just newborns, are already equal to grade 4 mages, with a body as strong as a grade 3 warrior.

Demon race is literally overpowered and is very cruel at the same time.

There’s no need to talk about negotiating, they are like literal cancer of this world whose only purpose in life is to destroy anything and everything in sight.

They don’t even tolerate their own kin let alone other living creatures.

Moreover they are basically the blessed children of miasma, they can use miasma even more efficiently then mages use mana.

Just to take down one high rank demon, you will need one grade-1 mage along with atleast a full squadron of grade-2 warriors.

Grade-1 warriors are nearly non-existent in this world so you can’t have them even if you want to, otherwise just one of them is enough and there will be no need for a whole squadron.

In other words, being at grade 1 is the minimum condition to even have a chance to fight a high rank demon.

As for the demon gods that are directly above the high rank demons, it’s pointless to even try to fight if you are not someone as powerful as the First King or the Golden King.

‘Let’s not drag this farce any longer…’

[Grade-3 Fire Magic: Flaming Meteor!]

Jareth raised his finger towards the sky and a massive magic circle appeared in the sky.

A gigantic meteor covered in molten lava fell towards the ground with an immense momentum.

*BOOM!*

A massive shockwave spread in all directions as the ground was hit my that gigantic meteor.

A massive crater was formed on the ground as the land cracked and debris flew into the air.

Most of the monsters were killed on the spot by the meteor and the molten lava, the rest were blasted to bits by the shockwave that followed right after.

The air pressure momentarily blowed away all the dark fog and the molten lava made the environment brighter then before.

*Step* *Step*

Ignoring the massive destruction he caused, Jareth started to walk towards his destination without changing his expression in the slightest.

He has known about the tragic lore of the monsters here and he was sad for their fate before too, but right now he doesn’t have the time to mourn their life.

All he can do is go and deal with the monster who did all this to them, afterall his destination is also on the same path.

‘Walking the path of darkness, I have become used to the ways of Abyss… if the Abyss wants to block my path… then there’s no need for it to exist anymore…’

Jareth knew the reality of this world so he didn’t think that he had become a hero just because he liberated these people from their pain.

Their souls will still suffer regardless, so he knew very well that he’s not pretending to be a hero.

‘Pretending to be a hero will get you nowhere in this world, use all assets you can… and survive till the end…’

As they say,

{History is written by victors… no one will question the authenticity of your past of no one has any evidence left to deny your words…}

Falsifying the truth and depicting heroes as villains, all this is extremely easy if you have the initiative in your hands.

While Jareth was walking, another group of similar monsters appeared to block his path again, but this time Jareth didn’t hesitate, he dealt with them all at once with a wide area magic.

For the next few hours, Jareth slaughtered thousands of monsters along the way in the same manner.

It wasn’t even a battle, it was just a one sided massacre.
