Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil

A trip back in time.

Just before Eren cut off his communication with the other side of the spatial tunnel.

An unknown region on the continent of Echidna.

A sacred Telesterion lit up with runes and natural light.

This was a sacred hall that was identical to the one Eren saw when he was inside the Oni dungeon. The place was inside the same pyramid found inside the Oni dungeon as well.

And yet, the divine aura that surrounded this pyramid was on a different level altogether. If Eren had tried to mess up here, the divine aura would have suppressed all his actions.

"I'll think about it."

The Oni King received a reply from the transgressor before the communication with the continent of Anfang got cut off completely. The Oni King couldn't even tempt him to do anything more for him.

This transgressor was present on the continent of Anfang. The Oni King didn't know who or what he was. But he had come to realize that the wretched person was an original denizen of the Anfang.

This transgressor had somehow managed to kill Har Jahar and taken the entire Oni dungeon under his control. The Oni King was a bit shocked by this fact.

This Oni King was sure that the Oni dungeon restricted the entries of high-ranking entities on the continent of Anfang. However, the transgressor's actions were so seamless that it looked like there was no bloodshed. He had just appeared one day and took over everything the Oni dungeon had to offer.

Complete domination.

That's what the transgressor had achieved. This could only be possible if the transgressor was at least a B-Rank entity or higher. Someone who shouldn't have been able to enter the Oni dungeon in the first place.

Then how did the transgressor achieve something like complete control of the subspace with no signs of mass wipeout?

"Mutiny!"

The Oni King blurted one word in Oni tongue before sighing deeply. He was a priest of the god assigned to manage the Oni dungeon on the continent of Anfang from this end– the continent of Echidna.

This Oni King looked different from Har Jahar. He boasted a mini-giant-like stature just like Har Jahar. And he had two distinct horns attached to his forehead too. But other than these Oni features, the priest looked entirely human. He did not have red skin like Har Jahar.

The Oni King had worn a ceremonial long red robe. That covered every inch of his body except his hands, feet, and face. The long robe had golden engravings all over it, which complemented the Oni King's golden eyes.

With a visible frown on his face, the Oni King priest started walking down from the altar. This altar was also identical to the one found in the Oni dungeon on Anfang. He needed to report the recent developments to the temple's higher authorities.

"My King, you look tense. What happened?"

Another Oni appeared in the huge hall after they saw the priest stepping down from the altar. It seemed something had gone wrong in the usual process.

This newly appeared Oni was a woman who also seemed to have human-like features. She had red eyes and light blue shoulder-length hair.

This Oni woman had canines. She was wearing a shoulder bracer on her left shoulder. Her heavy breasts were wrapped in a dark red blouse. Her waist was covered by a long belt that had a shield-like motif. She was wearing a loincloth below her waist, which only covered her feminine region. The rest was not left to the imagination.

This blue-haired Oni woman was wearing arm guards and leg guards as well. She had a stature of about 6 feet, which made her look extremely small in front of the 14 feet tall priest.

This blue-haired Oni woman had a rotund derriere. Her exposed thighs looked thick and shapely. Her strong appearance was complemented by her strong aura, indicating that she was no priest. She was a warrior Oni woman.

"What happened you ask? I'm not sure about it myself, Bisha. But it seems like Har Jahar is no more. And someone had replaced him. Someone from the continent of Anfang."

The Oni King Rok Jahar replied casually and stopped his stride after stepping down from the altar completely. He stood directly in front of the kneeling Oni woman before continuing.

"This transgressor has taken hold over the divine flame lit there. I am not even sure if he has intentions to cooperate with us. Or is he just trying to use the Oni dungeon to get here?

Either way. The usual procedure that we were supposed to follow is no more. You can retreat and resume your previous duties. I'll just try to contact someone."

Rok Jahar seemed stressed at the thought of reporting the incident to his superiors. He was especially stressed about the lack of information he had to report.

Rok Jahar wasn't surprised by the fact that a denizen from the continent of Anfang had managed to take control of the Oni dungeon. These things had happened in the past as well– the denizens of the continent of Anfang foiling the temple's plans.

Rok Jahar was the most surprised by the fact that there had been no predictable exchange between him and the transgressor. Usually, those who had foiled the temple's plans were in the know of a lot of things. Hence, the way they interacted with entities from the continent of Echidna was different.

It was as if the transgressor didn't want to foil the temple's plans for the greater good of Anfang. He had done it for his own sake, for his own reasons.

Rok Jahar took a long breath and processed a bunch of thoughts in his head. He then released the air through his mouth before continuing to walk further.

Bisha, the blue-haired Oni woman nodded her head to the departing figure. She was about to get up from her kneeling position and leave. However, she was stopped by Rok Jahar.

"Bisha, what do you think must have happened on the continent of Anfang?"
