The Sword of Somplak
Alexandria

Dozens of bule pensively by the lake with despair stared softly at the corpses that were still floating in the middle of the lake. Seeing all that makes Ucup can not stay silent. He then twisted his hands together to form a whirlpool of energy from the wind element and then flicked it into the middle of the lake.

The wuzz!

The wind blew fiercely forming a huge vortex that started rolling over the surface of the lake water which instantly became boisterous and surging, creating waves that bounced off in all directions. However, the corpses in the middle of the lake were not touched by the energy waves hitting it, even the position did not change. 

“Any, why can it be so?” Ucup back made do not believe see it.

Again, the Blood Lake showed its mysterious side after previously being able to make the eyes of the universe unable to find anything in its depths. Ucup began to frustrate him. He could only shake his head with a confused face.

“I had to jump in to know what made the lake so strange and confusing,” he decided.

“Kak, be careful!” the word diamond reminds.

Ucup nodded and said, “You wait here!”

Diamond smiling assures. Ucup then jumped off Feng Ying's back.

Byurs!

Ucup stretches itself carefully into the darkening of the deepening lake. The pale light of the moon glittered within the water, creating mysterious and terrifying silhouettes beneath the surface, as if the world had entered another layer full of mystery and darkness.

As Ucup reached deeper depths, he suddenly witnessed a shocking sight. Thousands of wandering spirits floated in the water, their faces emitting anger and hatred, filling their surroundings with a gripping aura. His empty eyes looked at Ucup with a deep sense of vengeance, as if they were carrying the burden of an unforgettable feeling. The atmosphere in the water grew increasingly gripping, and the inevitable spiritual pressure felt like a heavy burden on Ucup's shoulders.

In this stressful darkness, Ucup feels like he is in the middle of an invisible encounter with the supernatural. He knew that he had to be brave and careful, because these spirits might keep secrets that could help his mission, or even become a serious threat.

“Lord Ucup, maybe this lake is an illusion of magic. Beware!” prince Xiao Li Dan said.

Ucup tries to maintain calmness in the dark lake water, though thousands of spirits wander around him like they want to swallow him alive. 

However, suddenly, in the midst of the crowd of spirits, an unexpected figure appeared. A pale-faced and beautiful girl, wielding a shining red sword with dazzling magic power. The light from the sword was bouncing on the surface of the water, creating a terrifying gleam.

No words came out of the girl's pale lips. Only a heart-wrenching look was visible from the look in the eyes of the girl staring coldly at Ucup in front of her.

The fight broke out, and a dazzling and suspenseful action filled the entire space in the darkness of the lake water. The girl slid towards Ucup with a swift and agile movement, her sword spinning at lightning speed. 

With a cold grin, Ucup served a fight from the pale girl. He used his skills to dodge the girl's sharp attacks, and in an instant, the fight went on with high intensity.

The other spirits joined in this battle, creating a vortex of magic energy that was so huge and extremely pressing.

Ucup felt an inescapable pressure around him, but he had no choice but to fight against the fierce wandering spirit that kept him locked up.

Ucup began to panic and found it difficult to deal with the fight in the stressful water. His movements were hampered by the weight of the water, and the girl's brutal attack left him further cornered. His red sword moved swiftly, slicing through the air viciously, and Ucup struggled desperately to dodge it.

The girl brutally continued to attack, her red sword cutting through the air at lightning speed, while Ucup tried to dodge every strike with great difficulty. The splashes of lake water and the rumbling from their impact created a tension-filled atmosphere.

“Sial, I can't continue to be in a depressed state like this!” furious Ucup who was so overwhelmed faced a brutal attack from the girl.

With a swift and full of energy, Ucup launched a counterattack that shook the surrounding water. The girl's red sword came into contact with Ucup's fist, creating a flash of light that cut through the darkness within the lake water.

At one favorable moment, Ucup managed to lash out a hard blow that hit the girl's head so hard, he said, making the girl instantly float unconscious with a body that twitched in the darkness of the lake water. 

However, when Ucup is on the verge of victory and prepares to destroy the girl's body, he feels an oddity. The radiance of darkness energy suddenly radiated from the girl's body then absorbed into Ucup's body. Ucup also undoes his intention to destroy the body of the girl. He looked at the pale girl's face and touched her and then drained his all-powerful energy.

Shortly after, both of the girls' eyes opened. Ucup looked at him with a look that felt strange without any expression.

“You're a demon, what are you doing here? Then, who are you exactly?” tanya Ucup interrogated him.  

“A .. I'm Alexandria, I'm a demon lord of the Blood Lake. My duty is here to give magic power to all those who sacrifice the soul of mortal man,”.

Ucup chuckled loudly. He was astonished to hear the name of the demon girl who was impressed.

“Great once your name, Miss! Are you a demon from Europe?” 

The girl was silent and did not understand the words that came from Ucup's mouth.

“Ha-ha-ha! How cool!” exclaimed Ucup who then looked coldly at the girl.

“Nona, tell me everything about this lake!” pinta Ucup's.

“Good,” sahut Alexandria and then tell it.

In the story, the Blood Lake is a terrible and sinister place used as a place of magic power exchange rituals with human lives. 

When night fell, the lake was in deep darkness, illuminated only by the faint light of the moon and the stars that shimmered in the sky. The dark, glass-like surface of the water creates a mysterious reflection.

Around the lake, grew towering old trees, casting frightening shadows and giving the impression that this forest was a place forgotten by time. These trees seem to hold an ancient secret that has lasted for centuries.

The water in this Blood Lake has a dark red color reminiscent of blood, giving the impression that this lake has been a witness to many life sacrifices throughout its history. A haunted and stressful atmosphere was felt in the air, and an aura of darkness encompassed this place.

This was a place where magic power and darkness met in a terrifying ritual. The Blood Lake was a place that held dark secrets and power, and the presence of those dark sects in the mysterious night added a gripping aura to this place.

On the night of the ritual offering, people from the darkness sect gathered by the lake. They formed a magic circle with ancient markings that illuminated the night. In a sinister atmosphere, the witches and devils followers gathered for a very dangerous ceremony.

The bargain with the devil begins. People who thirst for magic power offer something very valuable in return, and demons who thirst for soul offerings that will determine how much magic power is given in return. It depends on the level of the cultivation realm or the spiritual power of the sacrificed human.

Each victim will be drawn into the center of the magic circle. As the exchange ritual began, a powerful magic energy flowed through the circle, creating a light that filled the night. This energy flowed from the victim that was absorbed by the demons.

After the exchange of lives with magic power was completed, all the members of the darkness sect drew up a magic contract that bound them with demons. This contract contained the requirements that all those who had obtained magic power had to meet, as well as the dire consequences if they were to break it.

All of these were secrets that were strictly maintained by the sects of darkness. They know that these kinds of practices are strictly prohibited in the wider wizarding world, and they do everything they can to become respected cultivators.

The lake itself became a silent witness of these kinds of ceremonies, continuously emitting an aura of darkness and death that had lasted until this very moment.
