Grey and the others returned to the White Devil settlement without encountering any further incidents.
The flight back was peaceful, giving Grey plenty of time to think about his next steps. By the time they arrived, they had already landed at the palace and made their way to the throne room together.
The White Devil King sat upon his throne, waiting for their report with obvious curiosity. Hearing this, Seraphina stepped forward and bowed respectfully to her father.
"Father, we have returned from the Sacred Mountain of Fate," she announced.
"Did you find anything useful there?" he asked, looking directly at Grey.
Grey shook his head with a disappointed expression.
"There was an immense amount of fate power there, but I can't take it from there nor can I control it for what I need," he lied smoothly. "The mountain seems to be using most of its energy to suppress the Sea of Despair."
Hearing this, the White Devil King sighed.
