Demiurge/Death Knight - Heat Resist

It was a world whose air seemed aglow with red light.

Crimson lava flowed like river, with numerous bubbles in these currents bursting as they reached the surface.

There should have been a fire-elemental damage field effect in place here, but since that effect had been temporarily suspended, the area was merely hot instead. However, despite the word “merely”, this was not a place where the living could easily survive. The scorching air would easily strip throats and skin of their moisture in seconds.

Even freshly beaded sweat would instantly vaporize into steam, causing a steady accumulation of fatigue.

This place, which was thoroughly inimical to the living, perfectly fitted the description of a “hell world”. Even so, many creatures lived here, part of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

For instance, demons.

Many demons were resistant to fire. Even hazardous environments like these would have no effect on them. Indeed, one could already see the outlines of several demons in the smoke clouds that hung low and heavy in the air.

—There was the meandering flow of a river of lava. The Death Knight was following its course, walking along the path that ran over a dam. Every now and then, he turned his gaze toward the lava.

And among them were the forms of demons that were far, far superior to the Death Knight.

They were the Evil Lords, demons that were around level 80.

***

Demiurge was immune to fire, yet sweat drops began forming on his forehead. Although the Death Knight was freed from the burden of answering, it was not as though he could have answered in the first place. In the end, the muttering and murmuring Demiurge finally exhaled at the end of his ruminations.
