Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 268: CHAPTER 268 - Alex was summoned.

*Fwoosh*

The wind whirled at a high speed, sucking everything in, the suction was so strong that people standing around it frowned as they felt that they might be sucked in if their hold on the ground was strong.

"Are you sure-"

A guy with a large body and red skin tried to inquire about it, but…

*Boom*

A booming sound was heard, and the whole room shook.

Debris flew, dust and paper everywhere, obstructing the vision of the people in the room.

But for people as strong as them, dust was nothing.

*Woosh*

The large guy, who turned out to be Malak, waved his hand.

*Shatter*

Just a single wave of his hand caused the dust to fly out of the window at a speed so high that the window glass shattered.

"Something feels off…."

Morvan muttered as she stared at the silhouette of two people that were slowly getting clear.

"Yes, the reaction wasn't supposed to be this strong…."

Even the always-smiling Valerius had his brows creased into a frown.

"Why do I feel like the demon king we summoned is stronger than he's supposed to be….?"

Nyx muttered as he felt the aura at the center of the magic circle.

The next second, all four of them exchanged a glance, and then Malak stepped forward.

*Woosh*

He waved his hand again, and this time the dust cleared out.

It was supposed to be a demon king summoning.

And it was only possible after Valerius somehow got his hands on the hero summoning circle and modified it.

They needed a king right now, and just like hero summoning, demon summoning called for the perfect demon king candidate, someone with the potential to become the demon king.

But that was the point, it was supposed to summon a being with the potential to turn into a demon king, which means that the summoned being would be very weak when summoned.

'So, why do I feel the presence of a Mythical powerhouse….?'

Valerius questioned inwardly.

The next instant, he saw the being or beings he had summoned.

"Two of them?"

Morven frowned as she saw two people at the center of the magic circle.

'Wasn't it supposed to be one person?'

But then her eyes widened, and only hers, even the other 3 had their eyes widened.

"One of them is human!"

Nyx exclaimed, but for some reason, there was a bit of excitement hidden in his words, probably happy that he got another human to 'play' with.

"Did you summon a human hero by any chance?"

Morven's quick thinking could only get her to that conclusion, after all, the spell was originally supposed to be used for hero summoning, and not demon lord.

"He is Mythical ranked…."

But just as Malak's words were heard, all of their eyes turned sharp.

None of them asked or said anything…..

*BOOM*

With a loud boom, their mana pressure was pushed toward the people at the center of the magic circle.

All of them ignored the demon girl who was also standing in the center of the magic circle, trembling as she felt their presence.

All of their focus was on the black-haired guy, who seemed to be in his thoughts as he had a frown on his forehead.

But…..

......….

(Right after Alex was summoned)

'Where are Alice and Ann?'

This was Alex's first question after he felt a land below him.

His space affinity was very high, high enough to let him feel everything around him even when he was traveling through the folds of space at a very high speed.

So, he felt their presence right beside him, but only until they reached this world's atmosphere.

The moment they entered this world's atmosphere, they were pulled somewhere else.

And he felt their presence going farther and farther until he couldn't feel it.

[I'm looking for their location, this world is 10 times larger than Gaia, so it might take a second.]

Alex nodded inwardly, but he sighed mentally.

Alex was not oblivious to the turbulent emotions Sophia was feeling.

She responds with the same happy tone that she used to do, she does anything he asks her to do, but Alex can feel her emotions no matter how much she tries to hide it.

He knew that something had been eating her from the inside.

And he knew it was his fault for calling her useless, but he didn't have time to get things right with her.

At least not right now, when he could feel some very strong presence' surrounding him.

"One of them is human!"

Alex looked at the short guy who was looking at him as if he were his prey, but not for long.

His eyes soon turned toward the vampire.

The small guy was the least of Alex's worries right now, that guy was the weakest among them.

But the vampire…..

[Location found.]

'Are they safe? Where are they?'

Alex's question was almost instantaneous, right after he heard Sophia's words.

Alice and Ann were a major part of his life by now.

They were someone who made him feel like he was fine, even though his memories were a mess, he was still fine.

But with them not beside him, Alex was not feeling right.

[One of them is in an empire called Pheonixia, while the other is in an empire called Solaria, a human empire.]

Sophia replied to Alex's question, but inwardly she was frowning.

She didn't like the way Alex was behaving.

He was like a druggist whose drug was confiscated.

But she didn't say anything right now.

'Pheonixia, related to fire, so it's probably where Alice is, and Solaria must be where Ann is…'

She could hear Alex muttering inwardly, ignoring the things going on around him.

Everything was happening very quickly.

Even the chat both Sophia and Alex were having was happening in microseconds.

'Are they safe?'

Alex's question about Alice and Ann made Sophia's brows crease into a frown yet again, but she still replied….

[Yes, they are safe.

The system would send them to the place it judged to be the system, of course after you.]

She could feel the relief Alex was feeling, but Alex's behavior irked her.

He was acting like one of those brain-dead protagonists right now….

"Did you summon a human hero by any chance?"

Alex, who was busy with his thoughts, finally focused back on the conversation happening around him.

'What's happening here?'

Alex questioned as he surveyed the surroundings.

In normal cases, Alex would've already guessed what was happening, but right now he couldn't.

[I will explain that later, but for now, you should focus on the task at hand…]

Sophia decided to wait a bit more.

Maybe, just maybe, Alex will soon return to how he used to be….

'And what is that?'

Listening to Alex's question made Sophia grit her teeth.

[Demons respect the blood, so you should reveal your bloodline.]

This was something Alex would've been able to tell even in his sleep; heck, he had plans for commanding all of the demons with his superior bloodline even before he came here.

Sophia waited for Alex to do something, but all he did was stand on his spot with a thoughtful look.

{Gahhhhh!}

[Alex! Alice and Ann are fine, but look at Luna!

She is not!

Isn't Luna your responsibility? What the hell are you doing?!

Get your shit together!]

Sophia finally couldn't take it.

The way Alex was acting like he lost everything was a bit too much for her!

Luna was trembling for god's sake!

She was not strong enough to take on the pressure of a Mythical ranker!

'Ah…'

Sophia's shout broke Alex out of his thoughts.

His eyes inadvertently turned toward Luna, and all he saw was a girl—a girl that he bought here, and a girl that was an important part of his life—trembling in fear….

Her face was pale, she was sweating, and her heartbeats were loud like a drum, but she didn't voice it out.

She didn't even tell him that she was feeling scared.

She, unlike him, was being considerate.

'What am I doing?'

Alex looked at his hands.

'Am I this weak?'

He then looked at Luna, who, upon noticing his gaze, gave a weak and forced smile.

*Grit*

Alex gritted his teeth in anger.

'I can't even protect someone close to me, then what do I have all of my powers for??'

For the first time, Alex felt angry at himself.

*Crack*

Something inside of him cracked.

*Clench*

Alex's fists bled, pouring golden blood out of his palms as he clenched his fists.

"Come here…"

Alex pulled Luna close to himself.

"He is a Mythical ranker…."

He ignored the words of the large demon; he focused on covering Luna in his aura and healing her mind…..

He didn't mind them mistaking him for a mythical-ranked being; he could easily defeat such beings, so it didn't matter….

His perception, which had been in disarray for a while, was now working perfectly.

He was observing everything, even though he was not looking at the demons.

The worry he felt when he looked at the vampire was now gone.

Right now, all he felt was anger—anger at himself for being a fool.

For ignoring the one beside him, just because he was worried about the ones that were already safe.

He looked at Luna, who was now asleep in his arms.

'Sleep well; I'll take care of things here….'

His guilt only increased as he realized just how much pressure Luna was under; she fell unconscious the moment she felt his warmth.

But then his eyes sharpened as he felt bloodlust coming from four pairs of eyes….

'These guys….'
