"What happened?" Baphomet, also known as the demon monarch asked when Zaganath, one of his five commanders came looking for him in a hurry.
"We just received important news from the people who are breaking the seal on the shadow realm," Zaganath said while kneeling in front of Baphomet.
Zaganath is the flame demon, he was 200 cm tall. His skin was crimson red, and a fiery aura was covering his entire body. His head was similar to that of a lion which was currently lowered because he was in front of Baphomet. His deep orange eyes were full of power, and occasionally some sparks of fire were coming out from his body because of his high affinity with fire.
"Is the seal already broken?" Baphomet asked while raising an eyebrow in surprise.
"No master, the seal on the shadow realm is still not broken" Zaganath shook his head and said, "but just a few minutes ago they detected a strange energy flow coming out from the shadow realm. At first, the energy flow was quite high, but it stopped after a few minutes. But the energy flow once again began, although it is way slower than before"
"A strange energy flow coming out from it" Baphomet muttered and a frown appeared on his face.
According to what he knows nothing should have happened during the process of breaking the seal.
"Alright, I will go take a look myself," Baphomet said to Zaganath and stood up.
Soon he disappeared from his place and appeared before a teleportation matrix.
Since the world is very big teleportation matrixs are the common way of travelling to large distances.
Baphomet stood up on the matrix and activated it.
The teleportation matrix lit up and he disappeared from there.
At a desolate place deep within a forest, a teleportation matrix shined brightly and Baphomet appeared there.
Two demons were guarding the teleportation matrix, when they saw Baphomet appearing there they instantly lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak anything.
Baphomet didn't pay any attention to them because he was thinking about what Zaganath told him earlier. He moved forward and disappeared from the place where the teleportation matrix was located.
Soon he appeared in a place which was surrounded by dense trees.
He moved toward the area of the dense tree, and as he moved towards them his surroundings started to change. All the dense trees started to disappear like they were just an illusion, and a small open area where some demons were gathered came into view.
There were around ten demons in that area, and all of them had a very powerful aura.
"Master," Malphasar, another one of Baphomet's five commanders came forward and greeted him after seeing him.
Malphasar was one and a half meters tall, he had the face of a crow with two raven wings behind his back. His feet were like the claw of a beast while his hands resembled that of humans.
He is in charge of breaking the seal on the shadow realm, and also the person who reported about the abnormality of the shadow realm.
Baphomet nodded his head at Malphasar, and looked at the pitch black portal at the end of the open space.
Seeing the entrance of the shadow realm Baphomet's eyes narrowed because he can also feel a strange energy flow coming out from the portal.
The energy was coming out from the portal and was disappearing into the void.
He approached the portal with furrowed eyebrows, but the closer he got to the portal the more his face changed.
When he was just fifty meters away from the portal, and can feel the energy flow clearly a shocked expression appeared on his face.
"How is this possible?" Baphomet muttered to himself looking at the portal with disbelief written all over his face.
"There is no way something like this is possible. All the five monarchs are still alive, without one of us dying there is no way this can happen"
Because of the law of the universe, there can only be five forbidden physiques holders at the same time.
The current five forbidden physiques holders are -
Baphomet, The demon monarch. Holder of the demon monarch physique.
Winterclaw, The ice monarch. Holder of the ice monarch physique.
Alistair Nightfall, The blood monarch. Holder of the blood monarch physique.
Akasha, The queen of venom. Holder of the poison monarch physique.
Eilistraea, the Moonlit Empress. Holder of the nature monarch physique.
These are the current five forbidden physique holders. It is the law of the universe that there can't be more than five forbidden physique holders at the same time.
When a forbidden physique holder reaches at C rank, a realm suitable according to their forbidden physique will be created.
Like when Baphomet reached at C rank demon realm was created, and now he is the master of that realm
This realm is completely separate from the outside world, and inside the demon realm, his power increases greatly.
But the most important thing about this realm is that this realm is the source of his unique energy.
THE DEMONIC ENERGY!
Demonic energy is completely different from mana and is far more powerful than it.
Every forbidden physique holder has his own realm, and that realm provides them with a unique energy.
When he reached at C rank, and the demon realm was created a connection between him and the demon realm was formed, giving him the full control over the demon realm.
And currently, he can feel it. He is very familiar with this energy flow.
The energy flow coming out from the shadow realm is similar to the energy flow that he felt when he formed his connection with the demon realm.
And Baphomet is shocked because if this is true, then doesn't it mean even though all five monarchs are still alive, a sixth person has already been born with a forbidden physique and reached at C, and currently he is forming a connection with the shadow realm.
