I would lie if I said I feel comfortable with having left those five boys fighting against Jihyun alone.

They're not used to this dimension and also our strength. This will be a hard fight for them to even just survive. I don't think they can make it out of here without injuries, that's most unlikely to happen.

After just some seconds I reach the castle, but rather next to it is my goal. I can already see them from the sky, the five cages, four of them filled with one person, the fifth empty. That one was meant for me.

And my friends are in the other four.

There may be a few guards on the ground but I know I'm stronger than them, even the five parallel us could have defeated them. Just as I was about to kill the last two one of them goes on his knees on the ground, bowing down to me.

„Lord Yeonjun, you finally came back."

As he lifts his face from the ground I recognize the demon again, he has been working at the palace for quite a while and I know him pretty well.

„Hyunjin. Can you tell me what happened here since I left?"

„I only know the part from when Jihyun killed the master, our majesty, the devil, your dad. He performed the ritual and took the power to himself. Then there was a big war between all of the demons. Many of us refused to serve under him or listen to him since we know how bad he is but he either just let us be killed or killed us with his own hands. Or his followers killed us. I thought it was best for me to stay in disguise, wait for you to return. He let your friends be captured, he tried hurting them but it didn't work because of your protection spell you did for them, which doesn't allow the current devil to kill them. He would have to kill you first to get to them so he was waiting for you to appear again, keeping your friends alive since he wants to kill you and them with his own hands. Ever since he's the ruler hell has become a complete disaster, I don't know much about the overworld but as far as I know from what I heard it's a complete disaster up there.", he explains, while doing so he goes through the keys he has on his pants, picking four of them before handing them over to me.

„That means we really will have to take care of him.", I say as I wanna take the keys in my hand. But as soon as I touch them they melt down. A spell.

„Oh no, I'm so sorry, I didn't know that! What do we do now, we have to hurry-!", Hyunjin Starts panicking but I pat his shoulder.

„Don't worry, I can do this without too. You better watch out that nobody catches us."

I then walk over to the cages, all four of them are sitting on the ground, their clothes don't look destroyed or anything so I guess they're fine.

„Long Time no seen guys. You all still alive and kicking or not?", I say with a smile on my face as they all react immediately and turn their heads towards me.

„Yeonjun!", they all shout out of joy at once, being really happy to see me.

„Yes, I'm alive, my dad saved me by sending me to a parallel dimension. Now we need to hurry, we can't let our other selves die, they are weaker than we are so this must be done quickly.", I explain in short, they all nod at once, understanding the seriousness of the situation.
