Chapter 2 - Demon Realm

"Mortal you have now entered the Demon Realm. Introduce yourself!"

The deep voice spoke to Aden. At first Aden got scared but he introduced himself. 'I am Aden Gray, who have entered the Demon Realm to pass the trial.'

"Gray... You say, So are you the son of the renowned warrior Wolf Gray?" The voice mentioned Aden's father, Aden got a bit surprised.

"Wait, you know my father? I didn't expected that he was that famous."

"Your father Wolf Gray was the most fearsome person at his time. By listening to his name even high class gods and demons starts to tremble." The voice continued. 'Well, I see. He truly was a great person I guess.' Aden spoke to the voice.

"Enough talk mortal. Now let's proceed the trial, your physical abilities will be tested now and from that your powers will be decided." As the voice said this a black coloured mist slowly came down from the sky and covered Aden's body in it.

"What is this thing?" Aden thought in his mind.

A few moments later the black coloured thing disappeared, like it has dissolved in the air.

"Your physical condition is pretty nice, maybe this is because of your father's genetics. So mortal your physical condition is now evaluated to semi high class according to your age. Your power is 'Illusionist'. The description will be provided to you when you will wake up. Good luck."

As the mysterious voice said this, Aden's vision started to get blurry and eventually he got unconscious and when he woke up he founded himself in a house. 'How did I got here?' Aden came out of the house and the atmosphere was still like the previous one a place where was no sunlight only darkness and eerie atmosphere.

Aden look around the house, checking that is there any danger or not. 'Ah... Man I think I am trapped here for a long time until I finish this shitty trial. Huh.' Aden spoke to himself. Around the house he didn't founded anything so he entered the house once again and when he was about to take a nap he saw a small diary on the table that was in the house.

He picked up the diary and opened it, "Power explanation, Illusionist." He read. 'So is this a guide of my powers I guess. That voice also told me something before I got unconscious it sounded like the Illusionist.'

Aden continued to read, "Illusionist is a sub type in the mage category. To use the powers the user should speak the chants to use. To make your clone, 'Double' is the chant. To make illusions, 'Illusion' is the chant. The Illusionist mainly focuses on hand to hand combat and illusions. Beginners may need to use chants as for the professionals they can use their power without the chant and have access to many more attacks."

"Hm... Interesting, so this is how I can use my powers." Aden thought. 'Okay, so let's give it a shot.' Aden stepped back a bit and the spoke the chant.

"Double"

As Aden spoke the chant a black aura started to form around his feets, the black aura slowly started to expand and make a circle leaving Aden's feets and the a black figure started to came out of the circle as it was acting like a portal and the figure was coming out of it.

The figure came out and was almost same in looks as Aden, the difference was only that the figure didn't had many colours it was only surrounded by the black aura. Aden looked at the diary and read the description of the 'Double' chant.

"'Double' can provide a beginner Illusionist to make 2 copies of them. Each one is as strong as the original user and has no draw backs." Aden read, 'Hm... So a power without any drawbacks.' Aden thought. As Aden read this he saw the the second chant 'Illusion' and read the description, "'Illusion' provides user to make an illusion that will exist in a different dimension, it will not in the original dimension, it will be an alternate dimension just for that. Draw back, needs more dark energy, users who are capable of using dark energy are able to do it. Illusionist may be able to use it after their awakening."

'Hm... This one's interesting with a drawback. And how to do awakening?', Aden continued to read the book, "An Illusionist will go through an awakening when he is near the death moment but refusez to give up and fight back. At the certain criteria user will go through an awakening and the illusion will be automatically used during the awakening."

'Hm.. so I can know that I have went through awakening, because the illusion will automatically start. Interesting.' Aden read the main points and kept the diary with him for some help for future.

The time was now passing and Aden thought to start the trial the next day as it was started to get even more dark. As Aden was about to sleep, he heard some noises coming outside from the house. He peek from the window and saw an entire army of monsters gathering around the house, and in the sky there was a crimson red moon shining brighter than the original moon.

The monsters were slowly heading towards the house and one of them knocked the door. Aden's heart started to get heavy, "What the hell is going on?!" Aden thought in his mind.
