"Boss Aillé, you tricked me!"
Of course, I wouldn't doubt Aillé at all. He had already sacrificed everything for the sake of this plan. But now, I already knew who had leaked the secret of the Hades.
"Ilmisya! You actually dared to betray me? "
I was filled with regret, but there was no medicine for regret. Perhaps I had trusted Aillé's abilities too much, but I never expected that Aillé would make such a mistake one day. The Devil Lords weren't actually united, and there was actually a traitor among Aillé's old companions. After all, even without Aillé's guarantee, the other Devil Lords had already shown their sincerity.
Of the four most ancient Devil Lords, three had already used their actions to prove their sincerity. Two of the Devil Lords had already transformed into demons of the Hades, becoming the guardians of the new Cycle of Reincarnation and Hades. This meant that they would forever be bound to the Hades in the future, making it impossible for them to betray me.
The Lord of Despair, who was still active in the outside world, had used Lady Storm as a sign of his loyalty. This was also the equivalent of having a falling out with the Chaos Faction. Aillé had also given him a series of major missions in the world of Aichy. It was evident that Aillé was trustworthy. The three Devil Lords' sincerity and Aillé's trust in me made me overlook that something was wrong with the last Devil Lord.
Just now, I had thought that the current Hades aura wasn't enough to complete Ilmisya's transformation. I never expected that the truth was that Ilmisya was intentionally delaying the transformation. In that case, Ilmisya's stance was suspicious from the very start.
But looking at it from a different angle, it was impossible for Ilmisya to be a loyal supporter of the Chaos Faction. After all, as long as she leaked our "grand plan" to the will of the Chaos Abyss, it would have been impossible for our plan to succeed. From the moment that Ilmisya knew about our plan but didn't report it, she had already betrayed the Chaos Faction.
"Benefits? Faction? Just which side is she on? Or is she on one side? "
Unlike the maniacal and chaotic demons, sly devils were all the best liars and schemers. The only possible reason for her to simultaneously betray Aillé and the Chaos Faction was a sufficiently large benefit for her. She wasn't a Main God, so the benefits she could obtain would be limited. She would definitely need a powerful backer, and someone who could provide her with sufficient benefits and support would definitely be a powerful Main God … As I watched the two of them kissing, I understood everything.
"Cavendish! How dare you trick me! Ilmisya belongs to you! "
Unknowingly, Cavendish, who had reverted to his normal size, popped his head out from the domineering woman's chest. First, he proudly gave my clone a thumbs up, as though he was saying, "Aren't you envious, you old bachelor?" Then, the thumb turned into a middle finger and the clone instantly exploded. My vision returned to pitch black.
"… I was tricked by a single cell! I was actually deceived by this pig head! "
His mind was already filled with anger, but his heart was calmer. Looking at Cavendish's proud and boastful appearance, it was obvious that all of this was planned by this guy.
"What does he intend to do? Isn't he on Cynthia's side? What can he possibly gain from betraying her? "
Ilmisya knew about Ilmisya's betrayal and didn't report it to the will of the Chaos Abyss. Of course, Cavendish knew about Ilmisya's betrayal and didn't report it to the will of the Chaos Abyss. I didn't even dare to look at the Chaos Abyss Prince betraying the will of the Chaos Abyss … There was far too much information and possibilities in my mind, making it difficult for me to grasp them all. However, there was one thing that was quite clear.
"No matter what he does, we absolutely can't let him succeed!"
It was now meaningless to send another clone. It would be impossible not to use a sufficient amount of power against a Devil Lord and a Demon Main God. And right now, the Lord of Putrefaction was still bothering me, so he actually lost enough strategic value and wasn't that important anymore.
"Omar, use chain mode. We don't have much time. Let's overload and stomp this scared insect to death. "
Indeed, in my eyes, the current Ladvioka was nothing at all. Perhaps he still had the power level of a Main God, but he was no longer the valiant and decisive general he had been on the battlefield. The Immemorial Inferno Demon who had been so powerful in the Holy War had lost his ambition to return to the battlefield and was now focusing on raising his own army. This was the equivalent of denying everything in the past and starting all over again.
Perhaps Ladvioka believed that this would allow him to have his own army's combat strength while also making up for his lack of personal power as a commander. But for me, this was the equivalent of splitting his energy in half, with half of it being something completely unrelated to his natural talents. Perhaps he had enough power and time to obtain benefits, but if he walked a path that conflicted with his own natural talents and personality, he would definitely end up spending twice the effort for half the result.
It would be meaningless to judge another person's path. The elves who were used to cultivating both magic and martial arts would still be able to easily defeat ordinary human warriors and mages with their natural talents and lifespans. But now, Ladvioka was no longer connected to the multiple dimensions that he controlled, and his army was trapped by the Mountain Inferno's traps and the Hades' dimensional laws of death. Ladvioka had indeed become the weakest Main God in all of the Hades, a breakthrough point for us!
"No matter the cost, no matter the consequences, let's kill him!"
My order surprised Omar, but he didn't hesitate as he directly joined the bone giants.
"Slaughter! Break … I've never felt so strong before. "
The bone giants with Marsolit as the core were only capable of maintaining the most basic of combat ideals. But when Marsolit poured all of his power into creating his organs, Omar took over his thoughts, and the entire bone giant was reborn.
Omar was the emperor of the undead to begin with. All the undead connected to him would become a part of him. His calculation abilities were also far superior to Marsolit's. To use an inappropriate analogy, if all of the Seven Original Sins were to be compared to a single person, Marsolit would be the spinal cord and nerves that connected him, while Omar would be the brain that directed the entire body's actions.
Omar's barely pieced together body would only be able to move based on instinct, while the physical body controlled by the brain would be capable of exquisite slaughter. Perhaps Omar's personal abilities weren't strong enough to support such a powerful physical body, but his natural talent of "the more undead he ruled over, the stronger he would become" made him the strongest CPU and stabilizer.
But just this alone wouldn't be enough. It wouldn't be enough to kill a Main God. If I wanted to win, I needed to be even stronger!
Against such an opponent, there was no time for me to be distracted. After I cast aside all distracting thoughts, I lowered my head and touched the ground I was standing on — the bone giant's skull.
"Envy."
"Pride."
"I almost forgot, Sloth …"
A tremendous amount of Hades's divine power transformed into actual Concepts. Purple, green, and blue. These three colors represented three different types of soul light, representing the three sides of my soul. Yet, all of them were poured into the bone giant.
The bone giant's entire body was twisting and changing. Thick bone spikes began growing out of his four limbs. His right fist became abnormally sharp, and his lower limbs began to lighten. His tailbone lengthened, and wings extended from his back. Unlike the monster that had been pieced together purely based on instinct, the bone giant was now actively improving his physical body, or rather, evolving it!
As mentioned before, power levels represented the level at which a person could develop their own potential. Saint rank was a clear definition of one's own path and "perfect future," which represented a Soul World. And the next step, "Myth rank", was a projection of one's own Concepts, transforming them into actual objects that would further perfect one's own path in reality.
This was incredibly difficult. The great majority of swordsmen would choose to pour their own Concepts into their personal weapons. Not only would this increase their combat strength, it would also allow them to continuously improve their understanding of Concepts in the future. The end result would be the creation of a large number of divine weapons, or so-called Myth-ranked weapons. And as the master's power level improved, these weapons could even evolve into SemiGod Equipment.
Of course, this wasn't the only option. Some Myth-ranked individuals would even pour their Concepts into their own physical bodies in order to strengthen their physical bodies and improve their supernatural abilities. Some would fuse their Concepts with their own Soul Worlds, greatly increasing their power level. But, the publicly acknowledged option with the least side effects and the least chance of making a mistake was still a personal weapon … The main reason was that if you made a mistake, you could always start over again.
I had once reached SemiGod rank. At Myth rank, the Concepts I was most skilled in were "Death" and "Soul." That was how the widely known "Yongye Darkness War" came into being. And this time, I had once again reached this level, or even higher. Among the Hades, the Seven Original Sins became my first choice of Concepts.
"Pouring my Concepts into my personal weapons? That's such a waste. Just look at my children. They are the best vessels for my power. My children, I bestow upon you the blessings of 'Envy', 'Sloth', and 'Pride.' Evolve! Surpass the limits of this world! "
The undead creations of the Seven Original Sins combined with the Concepts of the Seven Original Sins. What better combination could there be? Envy, Pride, and Sloth. The power of the three Original Sins began to strengthen and distort the bone giant's body. The bone giant wasn't satisfied with the overly high speed of evolution, and the bone giant's abnormal bones actually started pulling out bone tendrils. The bone giant transformed into a demonic egg and took another great step forward in evolution.
Ladvioka didn't have the habit of just sitting around and watching his enemy finish their preparations for battle. He once again attacked with his greatsword and Inferno Whip. However, a large hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his Inferno Whip. His greatsword didn't even have the time to break through the bone armor's outer layer. Ladvioka felt a mysterious sense of fear when he saw the broken bone egg staring at him with a single red eye. He felt as if his end had arrived.
With a whip, a fling, and a smack, the gigantic Ladvioka was flung to the ground like a clumsy hen before he could even let go of the Inferno Demon Whip.
"Envy shall grant you the ability to contain all types of energy and biological structures. There shall be no path to your growth. You are destined to become the top of the food chain. You shall toss the so-called theory of evolution into the trash!"
What sort of monster was this that had revealed its bone egg? Its entire body was composed of bone. However, the bone wings on its left resembled those of Dragons, while the bone wings on its right resembled those of demons. The horn on its tiger-shaped skull was currently gathering frightening energy. The flames in its eyes were a forbidden spell capable of stealing souls. One of its increasingly deformed arms was a heavy hammer, while the other was a dragon's head that desired to tear apart flesh and blood. If it wasn't for the gigantic dragon's tail that roamed the mountains, it was likely that it wouldn't have been able to maintain its center of gravity.
"Pride shall grant you the most stable of souls and physical bodies. You are the amalgamation of countless souls and physical bodies. Only the will of the highest level will be able to unite all those countless souls, allowing a monster like you that can't possibly exist to act under a single will. Omar! My Undead Prince, I've already given you a stage to show off. Show me and prove that you're my most outstanding child! "
Soulfire lit up in the gigantic beast's eyes. This gigantic beast was as nimble as a kung fu kid. With a single step, he approached his prey. The next instant, he raised the heavy hammer on his arm and smashed it down heavily at the Demon King who had fallen to the ground.
"Ahhh! Damn it! "
The venerated Demon King showed off how a ball rolled. The heavy hammer didn't hit its target. It only grazed Ladvioka's right hand as he howled in pain. Ladvioka lost his right hand. And this was only the beginning.
"Sloth shall grant you the memories and soul of merciless slaughter. You shall become the purest slaughterer and judge."
A silver Holy Light landed on the gigantic beast's body. With a single point, silver chains bound Ladvioka who was constantly trying to escape. As the judge of Law, the gigantic beast was using the power of Law to judge this evil invader from the Chaos Abyss.
"Thou art guilty!"
The power level of the silver chains had already surpassed that of a so-called Main God. Ladvioka kept howling in pain when he discovered that he was actually unable to fight back.
"I shall name you … the Beast of Apocalypse!"
A name represented power. A true name represented the universe and the mortal plane's acknowledgement of its existence. At this moment, the Beast of Apocalypse completed another leap in strength. Its frightening aura actually created a power level difference that locked Ladvioka in place.
The Beast of Apocalypse, who brought about the Twilight of the Gods, roared terrifyingly, causing the entire mortal plane to tremble in fear.
He was no longer a hastily assembled product. His explosive power was even more destructive. All of his organs had been created for combat. No, the most foundational change was that he had just been a hastily assembled machine. Now that he had a true body, he was like a powerful individual with flesh, blood, and soul!
"Originally, it was 578 seconds. Now, there's 167 seconds left. Has the collapse actually sped up …? Still, a mass-produced machine is completely different from a custom-made machine. This investment was worth it!"
The countdown that Ladvioka had just calculated was the Beast of Apocalypse's collapse. The time limit for the Beast of Apocalypse's collapse was actually less than three minutes. Ladvioka didn't intend to waste any more seconds. Since the Beast of Apocalypse was about to completely collapse, it was more than enough to take down a Main God level demon with it!
Ladvioka still didn't give up even though he was in dire straits. However, the approaching Beast of Apocalypse had already begun enjoying its feast …
At 124 seconds, Ladvioka lost his second arm. The Beast of Apocalypse swallowed his beheader sword in one gulp.
At 79 seconds, Ladvioka's head was twisted 180 degrees for the second time. This time, it was too late to regenerate. Ladvioka was now in dire straits.
At 46 seconds, Ladvioka's gigantic body was directly split into 16 pieces. It was now impossible to put them back together again.
At 37 seconds, Ladvioka's final Inferno Explosion ignited the entire Mountain Inferno. The entire mortal plane was reborn, and the Chaos Faction finally welcomed its first Main God to perish!
Countless meteors streaked through the various planes. Ladvioka's final screams of pain caused countless dimensional rulers to tremble in fear. The other supreme existences of the Seven Hells were also at a loss as to what to do as they faced a new opponent.
Perhaps Ladvioka still had a backup plan. Perhaps another Little Demon had appeared somewhere else, but at the very least, Ladvioka's soul hadn't appeared in the Hades or the River Styx. Even if Ladvioka could be revived, he was destined to be absent from this final Holy War.
Meanwhile, in the Hell of the Heartless, Cavendish was laughing and flirting with a female demon as he headed straight for the Tower of Ice. Ladvioka's final screams didn't even make him turn around. However, an unfamiliar yet familiar figure appeared in front of him, blocking his path.
"The Flame Sea Marchioness? I don't believe that Ladvioka, who's so soft-hearted to his own people, would allow you to enter the Hades, nor do I believe that you'll be able to stop us … Fine, don't glare at me. Sister-in-law Eliza, I was right. My older brother has gone too far, hasn't he? "
The "mortal girl" in maid attire lightly shook her head, lifted her skirt, and smiled as she bowed.
"This is my personal choice. This time, I shall stand by his side forever."
