'World quest: The Demonic Island

The long lost floating city of the ancient angels has been discovered and revived. Due to the control of two powerful sin demons, it has risen again to go to battle. Due to the influence of the demon lord demon king, the island has been corrupted by an unknown demonic mana. Many undead, corrupted monsters, and other soldiers have arisen there. 

Requirement: 

First: hunt the demonic island and purify it. 

Second: defeat and purify the sin demons.

Third: defeat and purify the demon lord while uncovering the truth.

Reward: ??????????????????'

The entire quest did not come the same way that Walker was used to. He felt that it was a scream through his mind. Something that made him want to run toward that island. A mana and desire that shouted that he could do nothing but focus on the trouble ahead. 

"That is nothing good at all." Remey clenched her fists after reading the world quest. She knew very well that there was much more to this than what they were seeing. But the world had given them a lot of information when it came to the island and what was going on in front of them. 

"That was the first shaking feeling we felt. That wasn't the elder at all. Was it?" Gil spoke with nervousness. He knew that what they were seeing was a massive trial to them and the others of the world. He also knew that anything on that island was the same, if not stronger than what the other angel cities were capable of. 

"It's against all of mana." Alice could see the light mana bending away from the entire island. It was being repelled. Her sharp senses when it came to light elemental mana told her that the island was the bane of mana as a whole. As if everything the island was made for had been forced to the opposite. That this place would snuff out the light that was one with her. 

"Yes it is. Even the shadows around it are not darkness mana. They aren't even the real demonic mana that a demon gets when it becomes a monster. I looked in to that when we were in the demon lands." Mordant seemed incredibly hostile while speaking. He felt that the darkness mana was calling out to him to right this wrong. 

In the time that the group had been in the demon lands, they had been fully aware that there were demons who let their instincts go too far. Who gave up their sanity and became monsters. This was possible for every single race, not just demons. However, it happened often with demons. 

Because of that, it was knowledgeable for every demon to know that their mana could become different. That it would shift to an odd form that was called demonic mana. But it had nothing to do with demons. It was the rejection of the world that made it that way. Yet, that was what everyone saw now. A corruption and rejection of the world and mana as a whole. 

'Corrupt undead wyvern king

Forcefully raised from its eternal slumber and bombarded with corrupt mana, this undead monster is forcefully made much more powerful. It is able to reform its body partially while still fighting. It can cause corruption in other beings that it kills and bring them back to life as a fellow corroded undead. 

This is a monster controlled directly by the demon lord. 

The devastation that this monster brings is considered greater than any force of nature. It can devastate great expanses of land while also creating more of its own kind. It will hunt any living thing that follows the flow of existence. The only way to survive it is to defeat it totally. Purify every bit of corrupted mana. 

the …'

Walker didn't even feel like reading the rest of the all around appraisal he got from the massive red and black scaled wyvern that he could see. The corrupted undead wyvern king was a monster brought back to bring death and destruction. Intentionally made just to destroy everything that was possible. 

"That city has a guard too." Current growled out as he saw the body of the wyvern king turned in to that. The wyvern queen they had met may have been doing the best for her children and future. But the dead wyvern king had been dead. Gone to rest for all eternity until whatever was left became one with the earth. The fact that it was risen again made Current and Mordant extremely angry. 

The wyverns may have finally gained their own race. Their own bloodline. They had risked it all for that. Found a way out of their own monster like instincts and seen light. But that wyvern head died. The king had died with some dragon blood still in it. Its body had not changed. That little bit of dragon blood sang out as it was corrupted. Every single being with dragon blood in them felt that there was a great affront to their kind in existence. 

"I can feel it too. That thing is a monster unlike any we have seen. But there are angels all around that palace too. In the sky. The armor looks like older armor that both empires wore too." Su's gaze was better than before as she was accepting more and more of the dragon instincts that came with her binds with Midnight. She could see much further and clearer than earlier. 

The armors that the corrupted undead angels wore were old. Definitely from when the two empires battled over this city. Before it had fallen the first time. It was a city island that had floated above with extreme power. Now, it had been taken and altered by the demon lord. The very target that the party was after and had believed would be causing such danger here. 

Walker could feel himself shake slightly. He had rarely felt a deep fear like this. The massive amount of corrupted mana that was coming from the footing demonic island was enough to pressure the entire world. Just the existence of so much corrupted mana shook the foundations of the world as a whole. He could feel it deep within him.

As the floating demonic island began to move, the party was finally able to move as well. The floating corrupted island was moving toward the opposite ocean. But there was nothing to tell them that this was where it was going. The party had no idea.

"We need to get back to that embassy now. Then we need to see how we are going to gather every able bodied soldier, healer, and whoever else can fight. We are going to complete this quest." Walker spoke with a deep confidence. It can from more than just him. 

This entire desire to rescue the very world he lived in wasn't just because of a hero title or his loved ones. It was a deep desire right down to his soul that told him to right the wrongs and allow everything to become as it should be in balance. 

"Then why the hell are we standing here? Mordant, Current, let's go. The echidna here are safe enough and the others said that they would see us again. We can trust them so we already know they are Allie's." Remey's outburst snapped everyone to attention. Sometimes blunt and forward we're exactly the traits needed to make a move.

"I could care less about saving some mana. I will be using my shadows to-"

"No, Mordant, I will take you all. You are able to use mana to appear anywhere after than I can. I can take you all. It will be slower but all of you must maintain your strength. I can recover the mana I use easily compared to the toll it takes to travel in shadows." 

Current knew the dangers that Mordant faced by delving partially in to the darkness plane to move through shadows at such a level. It was better to be safe than sorry here. 

"Good, I need Mordant to make sure we can get to Genesis if the worst happens. Everyone there should know what's going on already." Gil saw the potential that Mordant had to bring them to Genesis in the worst case. While brutal, it was an option if Mordant was capable of such a distant journey.

Current didn't waste any time. He leaped in to the sky taking his full dragon form. He used care when grabbing the group in his claws. A few of the echidna warriors jumped and held on. They were clearly guided by their own path to follow the party and Current allowed them the space to join the party before he flapped his powerful wings.
