Chapter 334: Lucifer, The Absolute Evil Incarnate
...….
"So, any last words?" Azmodeus asked.
"Wait just a minute! Can you not at least give me the opportunity to run away!?"
SHING!
Moving at a speed verging on hyper-insanity, Azmodeus moved and reappeared back in the spot he was just at. "Those were some unusual last words, but whatevs. If that is what you wish to say, then I fulfilled your wish." Mumbling to himself, Azmodeus turned his face away from the frozen Demonstar and walked toward the mountain of corpses.
After sitting down and leisurely placing his fist against his chin, he watched as the damage finally registered for Belanghor. Starting from his head to his torso, and then to his lower body and legs—he was dissected in every way imaginable.
Spurt! Spurt!
With his blood splattering the surroundings, a couple of system notifications arrived for Azmodeus.
BLING!
[Ding! You have killed thousands of 3rd Order High-Multiversal Realm Immortal Demonspawn. The reward is 500 Quadrillion Multiversal Evolution Essence!]
[Ding! You have killed an Immortal Demonspawn Demonstar, going by the name of Belanghor. With your kill being in the Half-Step Realm that separates the High-Multiversal Realm and the Half-Immortal Realm, your reward has been multiplied!]
[The reward is 100 Quintillion Multiversal Evolution Essence!]
[Ding! You have obtained 93 Quintillion Multiversal Power, meaning that you now contain within your fists the power of 93 Quintillion Multiverses.]
[Ding! You have received a ridiculous number of Physiques and Traits, all ranging from the Mortal Rank to the Half-Step Half-Immortal Realm. This has caused both your Singularity Physique and Singularity Trait to transcend all limits and reach the maximum 'A-Bomb Rank'. There is only one level in this rank, and to progress further, you will need to completely alter your existence.]
[Ding! You have automatically converted the Loot Essence of the beings you killed. As a result, your Loot God Nourishment Rate has achieved a rate of '99.99%']
[Ding! Your Singularity Technique (Scythe Slash) has also reached the A-bomb Rank! It is recommended that the host go through with a major metamorphic change before upgrading any further.]
[Ding! Having increased all your High-Star Law Comprehensions to the absolute limit of Level 5, all you need in order to achieve Immortal Coalescence is the energy gathered from an ascension. You will learn of the 30,000th High-Star Law after beginning your ascension!]
[Ding! With your current Multiversal Evolution Essence amount, you can use up 99% of it and advance your Race to the 2nd Order Loot God Realm. In this 99%, you can also upgrade the rest of your aspects of existence and reach a level where a complete reboot will occur. From the Infinite World to your stats to your skills, clones, and parameters—everything will be reset, improved, and then simplified.]
[Ding! It is recommended that the host officially go through with the ascension process before going through with the metaphysical alteration of your entire existence.]
"Hmm… It looks like I have been maxed out in everything but my Battle Power and Cultivation Realm. One is lingering in the 2nd Order High-Multiversal Realm, while the other is around the Late stages of that middle realm between Great Major Realms."
While looking over everything in retrospect, Azmodeus realized that he was very close to maxing his stats in the beginner area, which meant that he needed to rebirth and go to a higher-level area.
"Welp, I still have a few breakthroughs to make, and I also need to kill the rest of the Immortal Demonstars and the Immortal Demon Vanquisher Faction itself."
Azmodeus had already set up Mirror Mirages and Primordial Essence Clones in every inch of the Immortal Vanquisher HQ, and all they were waiting for was the go-ahead from their main body. Only then could he commence the true final objective of his 'visit' to Hell's Paradise.
With his plan at the forefront of his mind, he vanished from his spot and blitzed through time and space, attempting to find the trail of a rabid demon.
…
After a few hours of playing some games of hide, seek, and then murder everything in sight, Azmodeus ultimately found and killed 11 of the 12 Demonstars, including Malakar.
He died with many grievances, but giving absolutely no f*cks, Azmodeus used him and a few of his buddies to achieve a Battle Power at the absolute peak of the Half-Step Half-Immortal Realm. After which, he and the final Demonstar, Lucifer, faced each other with equally menacing presences.
The air crackled and the tension was palpable, but in the midst of such a spine-tingling atmosphere, two monsters stared at each other with inexplicable emotions present in their apathetic expressions.
"..."
Being the first one to speak, Lucifer's ancient jaw moved for the first time in eons. Making eerie noises as it went up and down, he said, "Your existence… You are the True Enigma of this generation? The one who came after those two anomalies… Very well… Since they are the ones who birthed you, I shall allow you the honor of joining them in the afterlife."
RUMBLE!
Possessing a figure larger than a universe and a face equally as looming, Lucifer whipped around his massive, spiked tail. While causing the wind to whistle and crack, the tail suddenly stopped its arbitrary swinging and shot out at the tiny humanoid frame standing on the enormous plateau opposite the one he was on.
Deciding to have their grand battle on the 'Abyssal Plateaus', they chose the location with one of the highest populations in all of Hell's Paradise.
With every step they took, many civilizations crumbled underneath their soles, almost as if they were giants standing inside an ant pile in a sandbox…
CRACKLE!!!
A savage streak of dark yellow lighting fell from the heavens, controlled by Lucifer in order to give his tail a trace aspect of the energy from the Immortal Realm.
"Over time, only two people have acquired the ability to move around trace amounts of the Immortal Energy that seeps into Hell's Paradise from the true Immortal Realm. Those two people are the Head Chairman of the Immortal Demon Vanquisher Faction and…"
CRACKA—BOOOOM!!!
"Me."
