Chapter 2598 - 1132: Unable to Escape (Part 2)
"It’s fortunate that you’re so understanding, my Lord," the Winged Snake Female Elder breathed a sigh of relief, "it will be more convenient for you to enter and exit the Endless Heavenly Ladder from here in the future, and we welcome you at any time."
"Alright!" Gaven agreed readily, "Ladies first, please!"
Gaven motioned the Card Queen to go ahead.
"You should go first, my Lord; you’ve been away from home for quite some time, and your heart must be eager to return," the Card Queen said kindly.
"Alright then." Gaven did not continue to decline and flew toward the window floating midair.
Truth be told, he was indeed a bit excited, with a hint of the feeling of returning home victorious.
He believed his return would greatly impact his territory.
As long as he implemented the newfound Divine Power and magic techniques, it would usher in a new era of development for his realm.
He was growing impatient.
Once he truly reached the Giant’s window, he found that it was not truly empty, but instead had a transparent, delicate layer akin to a cicada’s wing.
Passing through it officially marked his return to the Felen Continent, to his hometown.
At this moment, Gaven felt a peculiar trepidation about nearing home, an inexplicable sense of hesitation.
This hesitation only lasted a few seconds before he stepped forward and directly passed through the portal.
As he fully entered the portal, an anomaly occurred.
The originally transparent portal turned dark red, and the Giant’s House of the Wind Elf vanished, replaced by a fiery volcano made of skeleton remains, surrounded by countless undead.
All the undead seemed to sense something, raising their heads in unison to gaze at him, with soul flames dancing in their eyes, revealing endless slaughter, causing everyone present to shiver with fear.
This scenario lasted only for a moment, and with Gaven’s disappearance, everything returned to normal; the other side of the Wind Elf continued chattering, unaffected.
"What just happened?" the Wind Elves shrieked in disbelief.
"Bottomless Abyss, it was the Bottomless Abyss, not the Felen Continent, the teleportation went wrong." The Winged Snake Female Elder, experienced in this aspect, immediately deduced what had happened.
"That can’t be; our portal is extremely stable, never wrong."
"I’ve never seen anything like this."
"There’s absolutely no problem with our portal, see, I can go in and come out perfectly fine, it won’t go wrong."
The Wind Elves absolutely refused to believe there was an issue with their portal, and some even personally verified this by stepping in and out at the window.
Given the recent teleportation mishap, it’s unsure whether to call them confident or reckless.
The Card Queen added an explanation from the sidelines: "The issue isn’t with your portal, but with Lord Slaughter Hand; he should still carry a powerful Abyssal Mark, which forcibly pulled him back into the Bottomless Abyss during teleportation.
This situation isn’t unique to him; many demons and devils experience this; the stronger they are, the greater the likelihood of teleportation mishaps due to the restraints of the Bottomless Abyss and The Nine Hells."
"I see, but how could the handsome Lord carry an Abyssal Mark with such a strong life essence?"
"Would he be in mortal danger if dragged into the Bottomless Abyss?"
"That’s the Bottomless Abyss; it’s terrifying, scary, really makes me want to check it out!"
The Wind Elves chattered again, their thoughts clearly differing from conventional thinking.
Rather than worrying about Gaven’s safety, they were more filled with yearning for the Bottomless Abyss.
It was a mixture of fear and curiosity, much like those who are timid yet have a soft spot for horror films.
"Rest assured, your handsome friend just fought his way out of the Endless Abyss yesterday; whether it’s the Bloodthirsty Beast Yenogu or Prince Grazte of the Ubar, they’ve suffered greatly at his hands.
The ones who should be worrying are the demons, not him.
He wields Road Divine Power, so I believe he can find his way out of the Bottomless Abyss."
The Card Queen spoke with confidence about this newfound friend she had known for less than twenty-four hours.
Her sureness was not solely based on his dazzling accomplishments but also on the brief interactions they had, showcasing his character and skills in every aspect.
"It’s not good, Vianchi, Little Vianchi is missing."
"Did she return to the Giant’s House?"
"No, I just searched, she was with me earlier when we came out."
"Could she have sneaked away? She’s always wanted to travel, but her mother never allowed it."
"No way, Vianchi is so timid; she always says it, but every time she leaves the Giant’s House for even a hundred meters, she pulls me along, she’d never dare travel alone!"
"She was sticking close to the handsome Lord earlier; could she have also been caught in the faulty teleportation and ended up in the Bottomless Abyss too?"
"Ah... into the Bottomless Abyss? Gods Above, given her courage, she’d be scared to death even without getting eaten by the demons."
"I’m just speculating, it’s not confirmed, maybe she just went home first."
"Search, look both inside and outside."
A commotion arose from the Wind Elves, noisily clambering in and out of the windowed door.
