Chapter 31: The 6th Layer of Hell

They entered the realm of demons and found the place filled with fire and brimstone. They were in a large building of some sort, and their entrance shocked the demons that were there.

They killed the demons in the room and started exploring the place. The room next to it was filled with weapons and torn clothes. 

Cyril recognized the clothes to be the ones the Asgardian goddesses and valkyries were wearing. 

He also found Kyra's staff of life and amulet of protection. Her silkweaver undergarments were there too. He quickly kept all of Kyra's possessions and continued looking around.

In the next room, the demons had the Asgadian goddesses and valkyries tied up and were having their way with them as vines suddenly came out of the ground and ate all the demons in the room.

Cyril and Thor released the Asgardians and they reclaimed their weapons and clothes. Together they continued exploring the place, killing all the demons they found.

Drasul reanimated the demons who then proceeded to stand guard, protecting their way back to the portal.

They found a room where demons were beating up and torturing the dwarf brothers, but the brothers merely smiled and took the beating with pride. Thor smashed both demons, rendering them into minced meat, and freed the brothers.

In the last room within the building, they found Hela, bound naked to a table as a demon was torturing her.

Instantly a lotus shot up from the floor, devouring the screaming demon as Cyril released Hela.

"How could a mere demon capture you?" he asked as he gave her a hug.

"They didn't act alone. It was the Dread.... the same force that attacked Asgard" she whispered grimly.

As this was the last room, and he didn't want to go out of the building to fight the entire realm of demons, he decided to get out of there.

The whole group walked back to the portal room. Cyril destroyed the runes that created the portal, closing it permanently. He then opened the Nexus and everyone stepped inside.

Cyril reappeared at Elendil, coming out of Fenrir's bag. The battle was over, and the monster army stood still like giant statues standing virgil outside the city walls, with multiple demons dead at their feet.

The people of Elendil cheered from the inside, but nobody dared approach the large monsters.

Cyril walked in and went directly to Brightstar. "I see the battle is over" Cyril said.

"Thanks to your forces, yes we made it. I see the demons have stopped coming. Was it your doing?" Brightstar asked.

"Yes, I've closed the portal at StarRock. But there are probably demons still around between here to StarRock. I'll take care of them" Cyril replied as he waved his hand and the monster army started their march towards what was once StarRock Academy, killing every demon they saw in their path.

"What of StarRock and the students? Your friend Kyra?" Brightstar asked. 

"There's no one left alive in StarRock. Kyra... Kyra was most probably killed" Cyril answered softly.

"I've got to go. Elvenstar is most likely facing the demons now" he continued. 

Brightstar shook his hand "Good luck Cyril. I wish you well" he smiled weakly.

Cyril nodded and disappeared into the Nexus in front of Brightstar.
