Chapter 120: 120: Inner Demons Part 2

[Oi, Eye Demon I know you are watching, why don't we have a talk] communicated Lex within his soul, ready to confront his inner demons.

Lex unknowingly was becoming proficient in the use of his soul, which most people were unsure of its existence.

He not only had the Eye System, but also had a Soul Pet and the Originator Eye Demon all within his soul.

Hearing Lex, the previously dormant and observing Eye Demon, returned to a more active state.

[Why not kid] answered the Eye Demon who was still eager to find another opportunity to take over control of Lex's body.

[System take me to the Eye Prison] ordered Lex, who was unsure of who to get there other than losing control to his emotions and losing consciousness.

{Ding, the host is being taken to the Eye Prison} announced the system as he felt his consciousness being sucked out as he suddenly felt he was within another space.

"We meet again" stated the Eye Demon with his usual evil smile.

"How times have changed" ridiculed Lex as he looked down on the Eye Demon.

The identical figures stood opposite each other in a dark and damp room as they both smiled each other.

Beneath their smile was hate, malicious intent, but also both were reliant on each other and had no way to split away from each other.

Lex was reliant on the Originator Eye Demon for all his Eye Powers and was somehow the fuel of the Eye System, and the Eye Demon was residing within Lex's soul and was sealed within, with no way to escape, relying on Lex's energy for sustenance.

"What are you," asked Lex directly.

"I am you" replied the Eye Demon vaguely as he burst out into laughter.

"What you surprised, you saw me as a monster, well kid I am you" revealed the Eye Demon as he laughed at the shocked expression of Lex.

"That doesn't make sense, how the hell can you be me and why was I chosen" refuted Lex who was baffled and didn't believe what the Eye Demon was telling him.

"I am your...." the Eye Demon stated before being stopped by an unknown force.

"You damned bastard, sealing me and even restricting what I can say" cursed the Eye Demon.

Lex was confused as he stumbled backwards and sat on the ground.

[The Eye Demon is sealed within me and what he can say is restricted by the Eye System, but one thing I do know is that somehow he is connected to me and is a part of me] gathered Lex who was still managing to stay calm.

Standing back up Lex walked over to the Eye Demon and looked deep into his eyes.

However, as he did so he was launched flying back and crashing into the wall of the Eye Prison, as the profound power and evil energy was too much for Lex to handle.

Blood began to leak from Lex's eyes and all his orifices as he strugglingly sat up with his back against the wall.

The form that Lex was in to speak to the Eye Demon, was in excruciating pain almost to the point of shattered as he supported himself against the wall.

"Why do you hold such negativity" uttered Lex through the blood leaking out of his mouth, as he looked over to the Eye Demon who still had the same uncaring expression.

"You are asking me why I have such negativity within me. After everything that has happened to me, you think I can still be deluded and live happily. Look at the state of me and everything I am carrying" he roared as his eyes flashed red and he began to despair on his past.

It was the first time that Lex was noticing that the Eye Demon was just as vulnerable as he was and was bearing an astronomical weight of a long and painful past that was unknown to Lex.

"System, I want to know" stated Lex who had, had enough of not knowing the truth.

{Ding, the host is not yet capable of handling and or comprehending the origin and backstory to the Eye Demon and is still too weak} the system refuted.

The systems words were like a knife to his heart, but he knew that it was true and he still had a long way to go, but he wasn't upset about it in the slightest.

Lex was instead enlightened and seeing the constant pain the Eye Demon was in, no longer felt any animosity towards him and inversely wanted to accept and help hold the burden of sin.

"Kid you are still too weak and even in this reality, you are still only on a small island in the Lower Plains. Even with me sealed within you by that weird entity and with the unlimited potential that you have, you still haven't achieved any footing within the cosmos. What you have witnessed and know of, is merely a speck of dust in the wide and boundless universe" conveyed the Eye Demon.

"Return and leave me be, at least let me rot in peace" muttered the Eye Demon as he slumped against the wall.

His eyes conveyed extreme pain and negativity that was so strong that by merely looking into his eyes, Lex's soul was almost shattered and yet the Eye Demon continued to be enslaved by his negativity.

Outwardly the Eye Demon always seemed to be in a crazed state with the usual evil smile that he always put on and gave him a false image.

However, it became evident to Lex that it was merely a coping mechanism as he weirdly felt pity for the demon that resided within him despite knowing that its origin was infinitesimally more profound than what he knew.

The drive and determination that continued burning within Lex were given more fuel as he stood up using the wall to support his wounded soul form.

"I will return when I am strong enough to accept you as a part of myself and will become your salvation" declared Lex as he left the Eye Prison and returned to his body.

"Ignorant kid, still finding ways to clutch onto positivity, just like in your past lives" chuckled the Eye Demon within the Eye Prison after Lex left, as he returned to his eternal slumber.

Lex saw similarities with him, despite them being on an entirely different level and was nothing compared to the Eye Demon, he could still relate to the need of salvation for all the sin within him and needed to find a way to remove the guilt from his soul.

Returning to his body, Lex didn't feel any pain within his body, but deep down he could feel that his soul was slightly damaged by stupidly peering into the eyes of the Eye Demon.

[System how long has it been] asked Lex, who knew that time worked differently within his mindscape.

{Ding, it has passed 32 hours in reality as the host's injured soul took time to return your consciousness to your body and time works differently compared to reality} the system informed him.

Hearing that, Lex jumped up and hurriedly put on Kano as he left his room and rushed into the Earth Leader's office.

"Where are they" mumbled Lex to himself.

Scouting Eye

Spreading his vision throughout the Earth Leader's mansion which he had been residing in he couldn't see Ella, Angela or the Earth Leader and could hear loud noises of battle in the distance with his sensitive senses.

"They must have begun the extermination of the Voltiac Bases early without me because of some sort of complication" assumed Lex who dashed to the Earth Leader's desk where he saw a note that was nailed into the table.

'To Lex

The Voltiac Guild were alerted about our plans by my disciple Jaydan who is part of the rich and powerful Wilkes Family that had a large footing within the country and were secretly working under the Voltiac Guild and passing on everything they hear and see to the Voltiac Guild and were traitors to the country in order to save their own necks.

It was my mistake for not being careful and not being wary of my disciple but we had to move our plans forwards after we found out that Jaydan had alerted the Voltiac Guild. By the time you read this, it might be too late and we didn't want to interrupt you and cause backlash to you during your levelling.'

Scouring the note rapidly, Lex couldn't help but curse at the timing, and it being Jaydan that was an enemy of his in his past reality, made it even more of a painful revelation.

[System how long have they been battling for and when did they notice Jaydan's traitorous nature] asked Lex as he dashed out of the mansion.

{Ding, the Voltiac Guild were alerted by Jaydan 12 hours ago and prepared to fight and were attacked by the Earth Leader and those with him 6 hours ago who noticed that the Voltiac Guild were prepared for battle} revealed to him the system.

"I still have time" he stated as he launched himself into the air and formed a bow within his hand.
