[Demon Continent, Below Ground]

Walking down a huge and wide stairway below surface level, Kaido together with Argos and Fengris not far behind were following Aileene as she led them to their expected destination

For starters right after the fight, Aileene herself led them to one of the mountains and showed them a hidden passage that was quite below ground

Surprisingly the passageway was really well hidden that it might take them few weeks to find it without Aileene's guide

After a awhile of walking down the long and spooky stairway, Aileene herself begun to talk

"Well by the way, the process of conversion really takes awhile so In order for no interruptions, someone must be atleast able to look out for you while you submerge since you will be pretty defenseless by then" said Aileene

"Defenseless... . . Well... . . " Deliberated Argos

"Or we could just do it ourselves, since this will also serve as a catching up moments right?" Suggested Fengris

"... . . I got no problem with that" said Aileene

"Me either" said Argos

After that out of nowhere Kaido asked Aileene

"What will happen if I submerge? Based on your experience, what's your intake on this?"

"My intake? Well you could say that it's horrible to a certain degree" answered Aileene

"....."

"It's like the very darkness itself is ripping through you, it's quite irritating at first but if your not even good at handling malice, you might go out of control, after all facts aside people would always align black to darkness and evil" said Aileene

"I see"

At that the whole place once again descended into silence

******

Sooner than expected they arrived at their destination

Just like what they expect, such place were foretold to be really creepy and eerie

As the pool was huge, with rock pillars protruding out of its surface, this further enhance by the redeeming slight fog above the water surface and the lightning of a torch

If the story were a bit true and all according from Aileene, then this place have been a place where so many corpses and dumped into the water

With that it may be possible that such body of liquid to be quite something, but there's one thing for sure is that no one knows what will happen to you when you dive inside

Since the pool according to Aileene holds a lot of malice, it may be possible for ones individual's personality change thus if it were true then such theory would atleast feasible

As for Aileene's case she in turn somehow manage to regain her old personality while having at times a split of her changed personality, if we're not for Argos intervention from her past then perhaps she would have been a really different person from her current self

"If your going to submerge, I suggest that you take off all of your clothes since by doing so is much more effective than having your clothes on" advised Aileene

"Clothes off? Is that really necessary?" Asked kaido

"Well yes since i too did the same like way back before"

"I see... . . I understood"

With that Kaido proceeded I'm slowly taking off his clothes

As for Fengris and Argos the former seemed to be interested by the black pool as he crouched down at it's edge and slightly tap the surface of the liquid
