Jay wondered and wait for Alon.

But sitting at the same place was too much. He had been still for ages because of which he thought about checking out the place a bit because the designs and sculptings looked marvelous.

There were many things made up of gold that caught his eyes, of course, the drawing on them which were carved was what attracted him the most.

'Interesting…'

Those drawing seemed like cave paintings which were often discovered in the human world – Earth.

"I wonder how long they would have taken to make the beautiful carvings on this pillar…?", he asked himself in a low voice.

"…"

He kept admiring them for some time and wondered, 'Do these drawings hold some special meaning?'

In any case, there were many more pillars present there. He went from one to the another while taking a look at all of them.

"I wonder how long it will take for me to learn those arts…", Jay mumbled.

Not that he had a lot of time, there was a time limit provided so learning within that time would be fruitful!

'The Demon Arts…'

'Is that some sort of martial arts?', he asked himself.

Well, he was right. The demon arts were a sort of martial arts that the demons used.

Humans learned martial arts long ago and developed and modified. Along with magic, there were martial arts users who weren't that inferior.

In fact, there were many who considered martial arts users stronger than magic users.

The reason was simple, it was because the magic-user would end up exhausting their magic or skills if they were to deplete all their mana.

On the contrary, martial arts users could fight until their bodies crumbled or a large amount of fatigue was accumulated.

The demons, who used a similar fighting style, called their techniques Demon Arts. But those arts were not as simple as it was portrayed.

They were much more complex than the martial arts which humans used. Also, the demon arts comprised of magic too which made it almost invincible.

So learning something like that would definitely aid Jay in the upcoming fights and battles.

"Master, I'm back!", Alon said in a humble voice and approached Jay.

He had a lot of books in his hands. Each book comprised at least a thousand leaves!

"Master, here are the books…", he said in an excited tone.

That was probably because he wanted to see Jay master the techniques.

"…"

However, Jay was lost in his thoughts. He was thinking about all those things that were left to be done.

Though his rank evaluation was over, he had many things left to do such as the greatest battle of proxies that was soon going to come.

'Are the dragons stronger than the Overlords?', this was another question that kept on messing with his mind.

If the dragons were stronger than the overlords, then this all would make sense. The reason why he was chosen as the Dark Overlord would also start making sense.

But for now, those remained a mystery.

"Your highness!?", Alon raised his voice and called him again.

"Huh?", Jay finally responded because of the sudden rise in Alon's voice.

"What happened your highness?"

"Were you thinking something?", Alon asked.

"Ya…", Jay sighed when he was asked that while looking at the pillars.

Alon stared at the pillars too but had nothing to say because to him, it seemed no different than any normal stone pillar.

He thought that it was something only for decoration and was put here, but little did he know about the great secrets the pillars held.

Oh, a point to note – There were Nine Golden Pillars throughout the room.

Alon didn't understand the reason for Jay's sigh. Not that he had anything to do with that.

He just flashed the books again and said, "I got the books master!"

The moment Jay looked at the books, his expression changed.

"Ah, you got them…?"

"Yes your highness…", he said with a humble tone yet again.

Jay took a look at the mission which was given to him a few minutes earlier.

[ Mission – Learning From Netherland ]

[ -> Learn the Hell Demon Arts ]

[ Time Limit: 00:02:53:48 ( 2 hours 53 minutes 48 seconds ) ]

[ Reward 1: Unlock Demon Mode ]

[ Reward 2: New skill Demonic Overdrive ]

[ Warning – Upon failure, the skill Heal and Light Heal will permanently disappear ]

'I see, I have less than three hours to learn this art…', Jay concluded that he had no time to waste.

He then grabbed the books and started reading them.

There were tons of demon arts and it seemed like the books which Alon brought had most of them.

Jay had a pretty good IQ – this meant that he could memorize anything in an instant so he would face almost no problem at all!

Though, going through so many pages would be a tedious task.

Also, there were in total 5 books and each book had a thousand leaves on average.

If both sides were considered, then each book had two thousand pages on average.

Basically, he had to memorize ten thousand pages which were literally ridiculous!

Suppose he took one minute to memorize a page, then that would mean that he could only do 180 pages at max in three hours.

Perhaps, he was required to increase his speed by more than tenfold, and he did that exactly!

The time passed normally, but his speed of memorizing stuff was way too much.

It was as if he was just spending no more than 2 to 3 seconds on a page and was turning to the next page.

Alon was shocked to see him doing such a thing.

'Is his highness just flipping the pages?', this was something anyone would wonder once they were to see Jay reading at such a fast pace.

It was as if he had a computer in his head that was scanning everything on the page with just a glance – creating a photo of that page and storing it in his head.

While memorizing so many pages would be quite hard to do in 3 hours, Jay finished all of them in just 2 hours!

'Ding'

[ You have completed the mission ]

When this popped up, Jay concluded that the system indeed meant to only learn by words about the demon arts.

Actually, all the five books that he read were nothing more than the composition of a single demonic art which had many chapters in it – just like martial art cultivation techniques!

'Ding'

[ Reward 1: Unlock Demon Mode ]

[ Reward 2: New skill Demonic Overdrive ]

[ -> Accept/ Reject ]

"Accept…", he mumbled.

'Ding'

[ Congratulation ]

[ You have unlocked the Demon Mode ]

[ Demon Mode -> A mode that allows the host to turn into a demon ]

[ -> Demon arts can be used in this mode ]

[ -> All skills other than the demonic skills and class-specific skills will be locked in this mode ]

'I was right.'

'The demon arts can only be used in that mode…'

'And…'

'The demon mode literally meant becoming a demon!', Jay grinned when he saw that.

But the following texts surprised him a bit.

[ -> All skills other than the demonic skills and class-specific skills will be locked in this mode ]

'Huh?'

'I can't use other skills when I'm in that mode?', he asked himself.

In any case, he was satisfied with that.

There was no need of worrying about the mission at the moment. He finished the mission and learned something new at the same time.

Everything was for his own good, but the learning wasn't over yet.

He had to now master the art which he only memorized.

He was strong enough to control his body with great accuracy. Now he thought that it would be better to practice that.

He would definitely become much stronger than before – it was his gut feeling.

Alon understood what Jay wanted to do. Well, he was surprised to see Jay finish the impossible task in just two hours.

He sat by his side all this time and now finally knew that he wanted to do some practical training.

"Let's go to some other place your highness…", Alon said.

"Alright…", Jay nodded his head and in an instant, both of them teleported away – it was Alon who did it.

In an instant, they vanished from the place and appeared somewhere else.

The place seemed like some barren land with nothing other than huge gigantic rocks!

"…"
