There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!-Chapter 216

The cold raindrops made my skin feel a little chilly.

When my vision gradually recovered, I saw raindrops falling from the sky, a vast darkness accompanied by a howling gale.

"Boom!!"

A sudden flash of lightning illuminated the sky, making me instinctively close my eyes, followed by the continuous rumbling of thunder.

When I frowned and opened my eyes again, I finally saw clearly where I was.

This was a world dyed in gloomy black and crimson, as if it would forever be night.

Tall demonic statues stood majestically, but they were all stained with crimson blood.

Endless demonic castles stood in this gloomy purgatory, and endless skeletons floated around.

Black mountains that seemed to be burning with eternal flames stood tall, and the rolling river of the netherworld roared past under the statues, castles, and bone mountains.

I thought with disappointment.

I had thought that this time I could continue our previous fate, explore the beautiful scenery of the Holy Kingdom, and maybe fight a couple of vampires for fun.

This place now, I could tell where it was without even guessing.

It was an indescribable sense of familiarity.

Unfortunately, this location didn't look much like a demon castle...

It didn't have the luxurious and prosperous feeling of the Demon Academy at all.

On the contrary, it was a bit like the barren suburbs.

Just as I was trying to figure out where I was, a huge mouth suddenly split open under that massive demon god statue, trembling violently, as if opening a gate to hell.

Then a dark figure emerged from the gate. His whole body was wrapped in a layer of black leather armor, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes.

"Hehe, are you the new jailer?"

A sinister and strange laugh came from the mouth of this suddenly appeared high-ranking demon.

He didn't seem to have any intention of attacking me.

This laughter also made me feel very familiar.

Teacher Bachel used to laugh like this too.

I missed it so much.

But, a jailer?

This time I was going to be a prison guard in the Demon World Prison?

Not bad, it's like an outstanding graduate getting a job right away.

Feeling quite emotional inside, I nodded.

The prompt for this Shadow World seemed a little slow.

It's been so long, and I still haven't seen any message.

"Once you enter this gate, you might not be able to leave, you know?"

The guide demon looked at the surrounding environment, a ferocious smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

The first pass to enter the Demon World Prison was this "Gate of Hell," on which was engraved a sentence:

【Abandon all hope, ye who enter here!】

It was obviously not a joke.

"Creak! Creak!"

The creatures imprisoned in the Gate of Hell seemed to have sensed the opening of the gate, and they all made a terrifying grinding sound, as if trying to break free from this prison. However, the prison seemed to be enchanted with a magic formula of an unimaginably high rank, as unshakable as a seal.

If it were an ordinary person, they might have already made a wrong judgment due to this oppressive feeling and started considering how to run away.

But I was different.

Even if there was a demon blocking this Gate of Hell, I still really wanted to go in!

Just like I couldn't refuse to enroll in the Demon Academy!

Seeing my fearless, and even somewhat uncontrollably excited expression, the guide demon was stunned.

Generally speaking, new demons were quite afraid of this prison...

This new demon seemed a little off...

"Hehe, I hope you can live a little longer. Come with me."

With another strange cold laugh, the demon's figure disappeared from its spot.

And I also stepped into the Gate of Hell without any hesitation.

The moment I stepped into the Gate of Hell, the familiar prompt finally appeared.

【Shadow World: Endless Purgatory of the Pursued Undead】

【Level: 7th-Rank】

【Number of challengers is 6】

【Regular Challengers: 5】

【Special Challenger: 1】

【The Special Challenger has a very special identity and status buff, and will also face an initial situation different from other challengers. If the Special Challenger is killed, the mission success rate will be greatly affected.】

【Several years have passed since the holy war between the Demon World and humanity began. Many human heroes have been imprisoned in the Demon World Prison.】

【Currently, the war between the two sides has entered a stalemate, or a point of balance. If the stalemate continues, neither the demon race nor humanity will be able to bear it, so both sides have begun to look for opportunities to break the balance.】

【In the Demon World Prison, known to humans as "Purgatory" or "Hell," is imprisoned a human hero who will have the greatest impact on the situation—the Saintess of Darkness.】

【Originally, no one on the human side would have ever dreamed of planning a rescue operation for the Saintess of Darkness. There has never been a precedent of a human escaping from this Demon World Prison.】

【But even the Demon King never expected that there would be a traitor...】

【Mission Objective 1: Rescue and assist the sealed Saintess of Darkness in escaping the Demon World.】

【Mission Objective 2: All challengers survive until the end of the Shadow World and successfully escape the Demon World.】

【Mission Objective 3 is hidden. Challengers need to explore and exchange intelligence to unlock it.】

【Remaining time: 13 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes.】

【Due to the large size of this map and its open-world nature, the starting locations of the challengers will vary according to the identities they are given.】

Special challenger...

It seems that it's undoubtedly me.

I thought.

"So as a special challenger, my special identity is a prison guard, and my special status is that I've obtained a demonized disguise..."

From the character information, this time the prompt clearly indicated that the challengers' starting locations were different.

And the mission objective was clear, targeting this prison.

Then it was very likely that the others were all in this prison.

And this time, unlike the Demon Academy, the background story did not mention a full-team disguise.

If everyone else remained in their human state, they were most likely prisoners in this prison!

My teammates were probably waiting for me to rescue them right now!

I felt as if I had been entrusted with a heavy responsibility this time.

It felt a bit like fighting alone, with no time for death.

However.

Then again.

Since just now.

I had felt a slight sense of incongruity.

My body seemed a little lighter than usual.

My line of sight also felt a little lower than usual.

Looking closely, I could even see that my hair had grown a lot longer. My long, soft gray hair could even rest on my shoulders.

I suddenly realized.

Right now, I might be more than just disguised as a demon...

"No way, Sir, I'm still on live broadcast..."

My expression gradually became complicated.

If my guess was correct.

I had some trouble imagining what kind of uproar the real world outside the live broadcast had become...
