Dread Sovereign: Monster Girl Harem-Chapter 239 8: Hell’s Hero?

Raven stopped watching before he left the building, his eyes looking at the burning sun and vast red desert that surrounded this small city as his black feathered wings began to expand, lifting him off the ground with a resounding shockwave as he shot into the air and flew towards the edge of the city.

'I want to know what it's really like, what that burning sand feels like.'

His speed increased as he flew across the sky like a bolt of black lightning, approaching the edge of the city where two knights stood guard and bowed the moment they recognised him...

"Lord Raven, welcome to Hell."

"Lord!! Welcome!"

The two females were rather shy, but he didn't mind smiling at the pair as he landed beside them; these two women were constantly battered with red sand, and their small stone guard station showed that they needed to constantly use moisturiser and various magical herbs to help avoid ruining their skin.

"Sorry to bother you, ladies. Are these all needed because of the red sand?" Raven asked, pointing at the cream bottles on the table... the two women nodded with a bitter smile.

"Yes, Lord... this red sand is full of corrosive and toxic mana—if we weren't blessed with demonic energy, our skin would have already melted and become unrecognisable. It seems that our Lord is also blessed as your skin doesn't seem affected at all..."

"Envious... that small flicker of magic the sand causes makes our faces look so bad for two days after guarding, pimples or red spots..."

Raven felt it was nostalgic to listen to women complain like this—they were like Emily and Philis talking about which cream or sap was the best, as Elves and Dryads were both professionals when it came to skincare.

Do they not realise they are so beautiful as it is? Either one of them up top would be hounded by dedicated fans if they sang...

"How about I remove the mana from this sand? I have an idea..." Raven smiled at the two women, who tilted their heads...

"Remove red sand? Hahaha... you are so funny, Lord, it's impossible."

He closed his eyes, feeling inside his body, as the strange changes that happened when he slept with Eva began to swirl... slowly churning and awakening for the first time... he was trying to contact Eva... speak and converse... as a strange power filled his body like a dripping tap slowly filling a bottle while he focused on the small change he wanted to add...

The two female guards looked at Raven with strange eyes as his body began to float a few centimetres off the ground; then, a strange aura began to surround him, and the red sand near his feet began to gather as if it was attracted like a magnet.

Loud crackling sounded as they noticed the sand carrying the toxic mana began to change... the black mana became a brilliant white mana... Raven could feel it; Eva was sleeping, yet her subconscious was with him, wrapping her arms around him as they began to change the sand... only a small amount... the five miles around the city in all directions.... but the dirty mana and toxic chemicals were being devoured... drained... purified using Raven as the medium.

It was painful... the mana was strong and chaotic, forcing Raven to grit his teeth as Eva protected him and helped him change the sand... slowly draining it and turning it into harmless white mana that floated and mixed with the air... but Raven wanted to go further... to make the sand fertile... make it good for the skin rather than negative... blood started to ooze from his nose.... while cuts and tears formed in his skin because Raven wasn't a god... yet their current join work was bordering a gods power.

The man in the sand changed... slowly... Raven collapsed, falling to his knees as Eva woke up and held him tightly... whispering in his ear that it was enough... the sand within 5 miles of the city was now pure white mana... it wouldn't hurt anyone... they could slowly change it... over time... but he felt it... grasping at the tip of a better, bigger change.

"I can... I can do it... Eva... trust me... let me try... this sand... I want it to become fertile... edible... healthy..." Raven whispered, wiping the blood off his nose while Eva looked at him with tearful eyes... she trusted him... nodding gently and kissing his lips...

The man began to move faster... Raven grasped Eva's consciousness tightly as their souls joined and danced in the darkness of space... he could hear it...

Eva hummed a song... a beautiful song... it was a lullaby... a lullaby that helped him understand the mana and the sand... how to make it fertile... how to remove all the toxins and replace them with white mana... how to make Hell fertile and green...

Eva sang... Raven concentrated... their bodies glowed brightly... the two knights covered their eyes as the entire city could see it... the mana changed... the sand colour...texture... for five miles around the entire city... it became dirt... high quality, extremely fertile... soil... dirt.... mud and it rejected and resisted the toxic sand naturally... as if they were meant to co-exist.

Raven had succeeded... as blood poured from his mouth, coughing before he collapsed.

Because their attempt to change everything ended, Eva's spirit was back to her dreams, as the two knights hurriedly tried to help him up... but Raven refused... his legs stood firmly... he wiped the blood off his nose and mouth before walking forward and touching the dirt... feeling it between his fingers and smelling it... it was great quality soil...

"Sorry for the unsightly scene..." He smiled before the two women blushed and shook their heads... looking down, they felt a strange sensation in their chests... He couldn't know that from that moment, Raven would be considered a legend to the guards and knights, and he would garner equal respect to Deva.

Raven flew back to Eva's castle, collapsing on the bed... holding Eva tightly in his arms and closing his eyes... he had used too much of his power... his cultivation had stalled for a while now, but the moment he began to use that strange power... it jolted as if the rock that stopped the locks turning now finally began to crack and break apart allowing him to continue.

He was tired... Eva woke up for a moment... kissing his lips softly... before they both fell asleep in each other's embrace... unaware that Hell had changed forever... Although now it was a mere step... That one step was enough to bring about a revolution that would transform this place into a haven that all would envy.

Raven had created fertile soil five miles around the city and rejected the red sand naturally... what kind of achievement was this? The two love birds sleeping had no idea right now.

However, tomorrow... they would wake up to a massive commotion as Hell celebrated their act of changing the sand to fertile soil...

They would celebrate Raven and Eva, calling them heroes who changed Hell forever...
