~No one's POV~

After those brief moments in which you could witness the possible beings that were in that incandescent place, eyes began to appear from the cracks, observing the duo who was unable to use their magic, once they were noticed you could hear how several screams were made noticeable throughout the place, being very strong and heartbreaking along with the echo caused by the walls, until several figures on fire began to come out, which turned out to be beautiful birds that did not stop singing a powerful, very beautiful and sharp singing, due to this they began to try to protect themselves from the great powerful heat that emanated with their mere presence.

Momon: "Phoenix birds here? That's weird, they're supposed to be on the surface."

The birds did not stop flapping around them until they continued down the path of the cave.

Momon: 'Well, we already have those birds in Nazarick, so I don't think it's necessary to worry about them.'

He peeked through some cracks from where they came out to see the large amount of lava that flowed, the distance from which the lava fell was very deep.

Momon: "It is what I feared, we are near an underground volcano, we will have to be more careful."

After making sure that Evileye was okay, he helped her to stay on her feet, so they both picked up the makeshift torch while Momon began to collect all the necessary items before taking a turn back to the path where they came from, when picking up certain materials that they found before, he began to try to remember what the procedure for making energy was like, meditating for a few seconds before remembering, when he did, he also remembered the importance of a switch, so that by turning from one side to the other he managed to find what was necessary while Evileye only watched.

Momon: "Could you do me the favor of enlightening me a bit?"

Evileye: "Of course."

She brought the torch closer while it began to release a few sparks, being careful that the sparks were not going to ignite something else like the sulfur dust from before, until Momon managed to finish after a few minutes, letting out a ready and showing a new object that was created, before flipping the switch and showing that it started to release a light to illuminate in the dark.

Momon: "These lanterns that I made can help us light up without having to risk fire, I made 1 for you and another for me."

Evileye: 'Wow, that's so Impressive' "T-thank you."

She was still uncomfortable because of everything she had said before, for what she just wanted to let out of her as soon as possible, feeling that she was no longer capable of being in the same presence as him, while Momon tried to take advantage of the situation despite seeming somewhat uncomfortable.

Momon: "Well, we better turn off the torch, it's no longer necessary... ehm, how should I put it? I really don't care if you're curious, honestly I'm a little flattered, although as you know, there are things I prefer to keep secret."

Evileye: "I'm so sorry for being naive, please...! for me-"

Momon: "No no, I'm not scolding you or anything, I'm just saying...." *Cough* "I'm just saying that I really don't care, for example, the item that I offered you comes from an ancient ruin that a long time ago used to be inhabited by some people who prayed to their god before a dark force devastated them."
