<h4>Chapter 631 We Need To get Minnie</h4>
"The agents of the Nether are basicallyw enforcement for the Knights of the Nether.
The knights of the Nether, intelligent beings that serve as guards and rulers of the Nether use their pawns, Agents of theher, to ensure stability within theher."
"Stability!?" Lenny asked sarcastically again. He had not been in the Nether for too long, but from what he had seen, the Nether did not at all need any maintenance, and even if it did, he doubted the necessity of such an endeavor. However, Athena exined even more.
Theher is divided into two sides: "Creatures that have made a pact with humans in reality are on one side of theher, and creatures that have not made a pact are on the other side of theher.
When a summon from reality is made for a Nether creature, a portal through the void appears..."
"I get it now... So they are separated so that those that do not have a contract do not jump on the summoning ride, right?" Lenny interupted.
Athena nodded, "Well, that is at least the idea of it."
Lenny nodded in understanding as another thought came into his head, and a faint realization hit him.
"So that is how Minnie went back all the times she did, right?" Lenny asked, and just like he had guessed, he saw the look of affirmation on Athena''s face.
Lenny could not help but think of this method of escape as a very interesting one.
"This method is far moreplicated than you think it is. It is not just jumping into the portal, as it appears. Minnie has to use her teleportation powers to resonate with it and then channel where she wants to go through the void to the eighth earth."
Athena exined in such a manner that Lenny could easily understand.
"Wait a minute... What do you mean by channeling her power? If you are saying it in this manner, then you are saying that they are other earths with witches other than the eighth earth."
"Exactly! And they also make summonses. So that she does not end up on the wrong earth, Minnie has to channel her power the right way, targeted at a location on the eighth earth."
Lenny understood even better.
It was easy to assume that the only ce with witches that use negative magic would be the Eighth earth, but Lenny immediately realized how silly he had been thinking in that manner.
Also, he could tell why it was so important to get it right with channeling power to teleport to the right earth. This was because spatial travel through the void to other subnes was a million times easier than travel from two major nes.
The Eighth Earth was a Major ne. If the summons was from a witch in maybe the seventh or fifth nes, then traveling back to one''s own earth would be a major issue.
However, Lenny could also see why Vinegar had said that day that the Nether was the shortest cut to any of the nes, but transporting through it was impossible.
Truly, the mechanics of spatial travel were far moreplicated than they appeared to be.
Now, the most vital question of them all. The one that would either see to their escape or their demise.
Lenny walked around the cave a bit with his hands behind his back. He stopped after a bit of pacing, and then he turned to Athena.
"Death does not exist in this ce. And ording to what you said, Minnie made it here with you. So let me ask you. Where is Minnie?now?"
"That''s the thing. From the moment we came here, they knew that she had arrived."
"Who did?"
Athena raised a brow at him, "the Agents of the Nether. The same sick fucks that wanted to devour us back there. Minnie''s existence goes against a rule that has existed for thousands of years. She is a variable they cannot allow to survive, and therefore, they made certain restrictions for her.
A while ago, we were ambushed, and she was dumped within the ck sands for the Nether to take her."
Lenny raised a brow at this. After all, he understood that this ce had somehow made Athena a coward to some extent, but at least her zeal for survival should have pushed her to want to save Minnie''s life.
Lenny did not like Minnie one bit, andst he checked, she was owning him her death, but if she was the only ticket out of this dumb back to reality, then efforts had to be made for her sake.
Lenny found it surprising that Athena had not done anything to see to the freedom of Minnie.
Athena could sense his judgement in his eyes.
"Its not what you think. They did not just dump her in the sands of the Nether. If it were that way, I would have gone for her a long time ago. They dumped her in..."
Her words were caught in her throat as both her and lenny sensed the approach of something.
Immediately, she rushed out to check, and far off in the distance, she could see them.
The atmosphere suddenly darkened with the arrival of grotesqueher creatures. These abominable beings, resembling skeletal figures with a nightmarish touch, advanced with an eerie determination. Their bony frames seemed almost disjointed, with limbs extending far beyond the necessity for movement. Each creature was adorned with a myriad of eyes, an unsettling spectacle that gave them an otherworldly appearance.
Their hollow eye sockets emitted an otherworldly glow, casting an eerie light on the shadowyndscape. As the creatures slithered and crawled, it sounded like a cacophony of bones scraping against each other, echoing in the deste expanse. The million eyes that covered their skeletal forms seemed to be fixated on a singr purpose, as if fueled by a personal vendetta.
"Its a horde, and they are not here for me. What did you do?" She asked as she turned to lenny.
The relentless advance of theseher abominations suggested an innate understanding, an awareness of Lenny''s presence, as if they were drawn to him by an unseen force. The way they moved, with a semnce of malevolence, hinted at a connection between their existence and Lenny''s actions. It was as if theher itself had birthed these creatures with the sole intent of pursuing him, making their approach more ominous and threatening.
