The Great Demon System-Novel

Chapter 315: VR (2)

When he turned around, he saw exactly who he expected yet didn't want to believe…

Her purple, leaning slightly towards ashen hair was long and silky, falling down to her waist, unhindered by her deeper purple, well-hidden wings. The black horns on her head stood tall and proud, growing slightly purple from within. Her bright purple, red pupiled eyes shined brightly in the virtual space. Her sleek long-nailed hands were softly on her lips slightly covering the malevolent smile on her undoubtedly attractive visage.

Below that face was a standard female school uniform he had almost gotten used to seeing. Her shirt seemed slightly tight, emphasizing her clearly well-endowed breasts and hips. Underneath she wore a sort of blue skirt along with white thigh-high socks covering her thick, elegant, yet muscular thighs.

"Avilia! What the hell are you doing here!?" Moby yelled on instinct, more than taken aback at what he was seeing in front of him.

"I just followed you in here! What? Didn't know you wanted to get rid of me that badly!" She smiled, looking at him with a slight chuckle.

"Ah?" *EEEEK* Moby immediately covered up his private parts that he only now noticed were exposed, only making Avilia laugh even harder.

"HAHAHAHAH! Why are you covering up!? I've seen you naked a million times already! Hell! I've seen you have sex more times than I would like to admit! I live in your head remember?"

Moby's face turned bright red out of embarrassment. He already knew all of these things but he never really wanted to think about them

"W-whats going on!? How are you here? I thought I was all alone! And how the hell did you get clothes!?"

"Well, just use the menu obviously! You'll get a lot of choices!"

"T-thanks!"

Moby immediately spoke the words "Menu" and an entire list of options were listed in front of him. Yet, despite all the choices, he could not care less about any of them as he simply used his mind to scroll through the options until he found "Equipment," and immediately selected the default option.

And, not even a second later, he felt a slight tingle and a glow all around him as he was now clad tightly in his usual student uniform.

*Fhew…* Moby breathed a sigh of relief before directing his attention towards Avilia in the distance, walking slowly over to her amused figure with a face of bewilderment.

"Explain! How the hell are you here!"

"Wow! Why are you being so bold? Aren't you happy to see me here?"

"Well, yeah, I guess… But it just caught me off guard…"

"Pfff! I see! It's kinda weird being here since I can't read your mind like usual!" Avilia laughed once more, almost like a little kid.

That was when Moby noticed something he should have realized long ago but was simply too distracted…

Avilia was moving normally. This was his first-ever time seeing Avilia other than a slide show of her or simple images… She was moving, talking, and laughing like a normal person would. It was like the demon lord was in front of him in the flesh. He could not stop ogling her as she laughed right in front of him. Yet, what was odd was that he sensed no aura coming out of her which he did not know was due to the VR or due to Avilia suppressing herself.

"If I'm being honest, I'm not certain about 100% how this is happening but pretty much, this is what I get from it. This machine somehow works with people's consciousness along with virtual reality technology. As long as something has a consciousness, it can enter whatever the hell this place is. Pretty much, as you went in, I hung onto your soul and was transported here along with it! I couldn't really believe it either! It's weird in here, I feel alive and dead at the same time! This place is amazing! Who knew humans could develop something like this! I feel like I can probably cast a similar spell to project my true self but not when I was locked up in your head! This is amazing!"

Moby was beyond stunned at what he was seeing in front of him. He had never seen Avilia act like such a child before for his entire time knowing her… It was almost like she was a different person.

"Heh! Why are you gawking at me like that? I understand you have never seen anyone that looks as good as me but make it more subtle!"

"It's not that! I just never saw you moving like that before!"

"Ha! I guess that makes sense too!" She checked herself out.

Moby put his hands on his temples as he felt like a slight headache overcame his mind before he spoke.

"Well, anyways… This is all really amazing! Other than this machine letting me talk to you directly, maybe this will also help me train! It was a nightmare when you would try to describe how some demon magic hand symbols were just by words and slight flashes of images. But… that would all depend on if demon energy even worked in such a place…"

That was when Avilia's smile grew even wider, with a hint of wicked excitement written all over it.

"Good idea! Let me check!" Avilia put her middle finger and thumb together, and with that simple movement, cracks began to form on the ground beneath them and several pulses of purple energy tore the defensive barrier around the arena into what looked like glass shards— Moby was left speechless at the display. "Let's see if this is gonna work…" And just like that, she snapped her fingers and everything went into a blinding light of purple that was followed up by a blast so massive that it would have put planet busting explosions to shame.

And, in less than a fraction of a second, Moby's health dropped from a healthy 100/100 to a dead 0/100.

Yet, despite that fact, he felt nothing… All that happened was that his vision went black and he found himself materializing and standing exactly where he first spawned into this world.

But, unlike the first time he spawned, the world around him was far different… It was still the arena he firmly remembered, only now it was shrouded in gray ash, cracks and piles of rubble everywhere like someone had set off a nuclear explosion. The smoke clouds were thick, yet they gave off no noticeable smell or breathing problems towards him, the air felt nearly exactly the same.

If mass destruction had a visual representation it would be what he was seeing in front of him currently. Yet, even still, he felt like it was far too little for what Avilia had done, and he seemed to not be the only one thinking that…

"Damn…Well, demon energy works… But, I thought that would wipe out the entire building at least… What's this made of?"

That sight was so shocking that he nearly forgot that demon energy actually worked. But, before he could even open his mouth, a white energy flashed upon all the walls and smoke around them. And, like time rewinded itself in a split second, the arena was back to how it was like before, all clean and prestine.

"Avilia… Why did you blast that in my face??"

"Oh! Don't worry! I know it wouldn't hurt you!"

"Yeah, I guess… Eh, anyways, how is demon energy even working here? If you have a mana bar, can you tell me what number it says?"

"95/100 mana… What is that? No way that attack depleted 5% of my energy reserves!"

"Hmmmm… I guess it wasn't able to emulate you at full strength, which is very understandable. But, you're still strong as hell…. And, why in the world would demon energy count as mana in this reality? Is the game bugged or does it count anything energy-based as mana? This is confusing."

"I honestly don't know… But, I doubt it's anything major… Eh, I guess in this state I would be able to slap around any human imaginable and I would still be able to use a few of my spells. I guess I can't complain, this is more freedom than I could ever dream of… I never imagined I would be talking like this to another person so soon... Move freely with a body I had full control over and not just a limited, simple mental projection... I never thought I would be able to see, train, and interact with you in such a way… It's truly a blessing… This kind of tech is amazing..."

"And, I never thought I would be able to see you like this before I get you a new body… This is far from ideal but it's a good first step…"

They both smiled at each other, standing a few feet apart with Avilia being slightly shorter than her successor. It was the first moment of calm in a long time. But, like all good things, they never last and will always come to an end...

"So… Now that we're here. Are you gonna whip something new out and train me? Knowing you, you probably have something whipped upright?"

"Uhum, of course, I do!" She nodded at him. "But first! I want to see if I put in a bit more energy, will I be able to destroy this building? I'll be using a very high-level spell so pay attention to my energy flow and technique okay?" The smile she bore on her face was pure evil, sinfulness from the deepest depths of hell seeping out of every pore.

"Oh no! It's really okay! I'm not ready for that level of magi-"

"Too late!"

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
