The moment Jax vanished from the administrative wing, the pressure lingering across the room disappeared with him.
Space folded seamlessly around his body, reality bending obediently beneath his will before reforming once more within the upper levels of the Demon King Palace.
Warm sunlight poured through the towering windows of the royal halls, illuminating the obsidian floors beneath his feet with soft golden reflections.
The atmosphere here was far calmer than the frantic coordination happening within the administrative district below.
All of the servants were just lingering, as they'd completed most of their work, and were now just talking to each-other about various topics.
When they spotted Jax, they nodded respectfully, and made way for him to walk peacefully.
Mana lanterns glowed softly overhead, illuminating his pathway as Jax moved, already having senses exactly where Seraphina was somewhere nearby.
