When he saw Faendaz's soul being stuffed into the magic sword of Osiris, and the skull's eyes on the jaw of the magic sword lit up with greedy light, Belial, the overlord of the Hell Hell, felt that he was the whole demon city.
Not good.
He thought he was miserable enough before, but he didn't expect that Farndaz would be even worse than him. He managed to save his life, but Farndaz was completely killed.
That idiot, what did he want to do by letting the soul escape? Didn't he think that after losing the Ouroboros mark, the soul would not return to the abyss world if it was exposed?
In any case, Faendaz was a colleague that Beryl and the others had worked with for many years. Now after seeing his complete death, Beryl couldn't help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying like a fox.
Belial also felt the same way as Lady Styx and a group of demon lords. However, even if Osiris, the murderer, was right in front of them, Lady Styx and the others had no intention of avenging Fandaz.
The reason is simple, they don't want to die either.
It has actually been a long time since they lost the Ouroboros mark. From the beginning, they were not used to it, but later it became indifferent. After all, as demon lords, it is difficult for enemies to kill them, but Fandaz
Their death suddenly made them aware of their situation. Without the protection of the Ouroboros mark, they might also perish.
"Whose turn is it next?" Roy was stepping on the huge head of Fandaz's body at this time. He had just completed the killing. At this time, the murderous aura in his body had not subsided, so much so that he took off his mask.
Finally, the smile on his face also looked particularly ferocious, the two rows of neat and sharp teeth seemed to be shining with cold light, and a pair of red five-pointed star eyes stared at everyone with murderous intent.
Seeing Roy's ferocious smile, Mrs. Styx and the others took a step back involuntarily. Then they realized that they seemed a bit rude, so they made eye contact and introduced Mrs. Styx as a representative to negotiate with Roy.
Lady Styx flapped her butterfly wings, took two steps forward lightly, and said: "Osiris, we have no intention of being your enemy. You have proven your strength. It is not impossible to recognize you as the ruler of the demon world.
However, we have a question for you."
"Say!" Roy tilted his chin towards him.
"Mundus has been defeated and escaped. I guess you took his place and wanted to hunt him down, right?" Lady Styx said: "What we want to ask is, are you sure about taking away the Ouroboros from Mundus?
Can you take back the mark? After you take it back, will it be returned to us?"
"Those are two questions!" Roy sneered and said, "It seems that you yourselves actually know that the one who took away your mark is Mundus, right?"
Mrs. Styx nodded: "Of course, we are demon lords. I don't know what happened to those low-level demons, but how could they defeat us? It's just that Mundus is the ruler here, and we have been suppressed by him.
So I can’t resist.”
Sparta was expressionless beside him, but in his heart he was very disdainful of Lady Styx and the others. So many demon lords knew what Mundus had done, but in the end, the only one who really dared to resist was himself. No wonder these guys have since become demons.
After becoming a lord, there is no more progress.
They have lost the courage and enthusiasm to make progress...
But Sparta also knows that this is the norm for demons today. After all, it is too difficult to become a demon king. Many demon lords are unable to get in and can only stay in this class for life. This kind of person has no hope.
This state will naturally dissipate the enterprising ideas of the demon lords.
To be honest, when Sparta served under Mundus, in addition to the fact that Mundus was indeed stronger than him, it was also because Sparta saw hope in Mundus. Mundus had been pursuing to become the Demon King and become a true
God, it was this courage that made Sparta willing to serve him.
It's just a pity that Mundus had no courage, but still went astray. Although seizing the Ouroboros mark allowed him to achieve an immortal soul, it also pushed him to the opposite side of all demons.
Now, this contradiction finally broke out. After he escaped, the first thing that all the demon lords and generals thought of was how to get the lost mark back. No one wanted to be loyal to him. It can be said that
He has completely betrayed Mundus, the ruler of the demon world.
In response to the questions of the demon lords, Roy replied without even thinking: "As long as Mundus' soul can be recovered, I will have a way to separate the mark from his soul. Your mark
I can return it to you, but you have also seen that the space channel has been opened, and the angel army that retreated may appear again. If we do not defeat them, it will be impossible to capture Mundus!"
Lady Styx smiled seductively and said: "This is easy to handle. As long as you, Lord Osiris, are willing to make a devil's contract for the promise you just made, then all the devil armies under our control will be at your disposal. As long as you can bring back Mongolia
Duce’s soul, what’s the big deal about rekindling the eternal war?”
Roy glanced at Mrs. Styx and the others silently, then nodded: "Okay!"
As a result, a demon contract appeared out of thin air in mid-air, listing the terms agreed upon by both parties. After reading the terms and feeling that there were no loopholes, a group of demon lords including the Hell Overlord Belial, Lady Styx, and others started to sign one by one.
The earth left its own devilish name on the contract.
And after Roy also left his name as a devil, the contract was established!
All the demon lords bowed and saluted, declaring their allegiance to the demon lord Osiris.
I have to say that the demons are very clear about class. If there was a real demon king here, Belial and Lady Styx would probably bow down and worship him without saying a word.
But Roy is in the same class as them, so even if they obey Roy's orders and serve Roy, they still have to fight for the benefits they should fight for.
This model feels vaguely familiar to Roy, just like Cabeles and his group of demon lords in the Ashan world. When they were trapped in prison, everyone was equal, but if anyone
If you can get out of trouble, then whoever is the ruler of the entire demon camp will be deemed to be the ruler, and the rest of the people must provide support.
For Roy, this is fine. If the demon lords cannot be consistent with him in terms of level, then it is okay to make them consistent with him through such a contract.
As for how to separate the mark after recapturing Mundus' soul, Roy was not worried at all. This time he gained a large number of souls in the demon world. Although they all came from demons,
It can also be used. As long as the system is used to create an item such as a separation device in a targeted manner, the mark of Mundus fusion can be separated. As for how many souls are needed to create this item, we will see later.
chant.
"Okay!" After the contract was established, Roy said to Mrs. Styx and the others: "Now, go back to your respective territories, gather all your troops, and then come to the Demon King's City to assemble!"
"As you command, Your Majesty Osiris!" Lady Styx and the others bent down and saluted, then spread out their demon wings and flew away. Meanwhile, Belial, the overlord of Hell, who had broken off a demon horn, spread his hooves.
Run wildly into the distance.
After the demon lords left, the densely packed low-level demons in the distance cautiously approached and offered their knees to Roy, the newly promoted ruler of the demon world.
"War... is coming again..." Sparta looked at this scene and sighed.
"Isn't this a normal thing for demons?" Roy glanced at him and asked curiously: "Why do you show so much resistance to war?"
"You don't understand..." Sparta looked back at Roy and said, "Osiris, you are very powerful. The most rare thing is that you seem to be very young. I don't know how old you are, but if
If you live to my age, you will understand what I mean..."
Roy then remembered that although Sparta only had two sons, he was actually a thousand-year-old demon...
"War is indeed normal for demons. If you are asked to fight with angels for a hundred or two hundred years, you may think it is nothing..." Sparta sighed: "But if you are asked to fight for a thousand years,
, two thousand years, even five thousand years, six thousand years? Day after day, year after year, the body is always on the edge of life and death, and blood is always seen in the eyes. At that time, will you still feel
Is this normal?"
Roy thought about it and suddenly felt a little speechless.
"Eternal war, this term sounds great and glorious, but in fact this kind of never-ending war with no end in sight has made many demons and angels tired of it!" Sparta said: "
In the nearly ten thousand years since I came to this world, I have seen many demons choose to end themselves because they could no longer endure this endless battle. The same is true for angels. I have met many demons.
Angels can obviously compete with the enemy on the battlefield, but in the end they choose to be killed by their opponents..."
Hearing Sparta's emotion, Julie couldn't help but nodded. It was indeed the case. When she was in the world of Darksiders, she also witnessed a long and eternal battle with heaven under Samael.
War, at that time there were demons who chose to end themselves. I guess they couldn’t stand this kind of war that could never be won or lost...
"So, I chose to seal the space channel before because I didn't want the eternal war to continue..." Sparta put away the magic sword and said to Roy: "But the matter of Mundus makes me unable to make a choice.
Now I only hope that you, His Majesty Osiris, can allow me to seal this passage again after capturing Mundus, then I will be grateful."
"Okay, I promise you!" Roy nodded.
Listening to the conversation between Sparta and Roy, Dante, Virgil, and Nero couldn't help but look at each other.
At this moment, they suddenly felt that it was better to be human beings, at least for a few decades of human lifespan, without having to worry and think about things thousands of years later, and without having to endure the mental torture caused by a long time...
