Looking at Samael laughing out loud, Roy lowered his head, but he was thinking strangely. If he and Julia had used up the black dragon blood that Lilith had given them as soon as they came out, how would Samael have escaped?
Perhaps at that time, he and Julia would have had to go to Lilith's place again? But does Lilith have so much dragon blood?
"Your Excellency Samael, congratulations!" Julia said excitedly as she knelt on one knee.
Samael finally stopped laughing. He looked at Julia and then at Roy beside him. "Julia, you did well. Although there was a small accident and I couldn't contact Lilith after being sealed, I didn't expect you to go to Lilith's place after leaving. Your loyalty is worthy of praise!"
"This is what I should do," Julia said humbly.
"No!" Samael shook his head. "Loyalty must be rewarded. This is the demon law of the Abyss!"
With that, Samael gently waved his sharp claws on Julia's head. A black light flashed, and Julia, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly let out a painful groan. Then the two pairs of fallen angel wings on her back changed.
Black hellfire flames burned and devoured Julia's two pairs of wings. The flames did not dissipate for a long time and finally stabilized. Julia's two pairs of fallen angel wings turned into black flame wings!
Roy looked at the scene in front of him in surprise. He found that after Julia's wings changed, the magic power pressure she emitted suddenly increased by a lot!
Is this … power bestowed by Samael?
That's not right. Samael's own power is being suppressed now, so how can he bestow power to others?
Before Roy could figure it out, Samael said, "Julia, when you and the other personal guards were created, there was a restriction valve in your body. This restriction valve was originally a method to control fallen angels to prevent them from rebelling. But now that you've used your loyalty to prove yourself, I've removed this restriction valve for you and returned the power that originally belonged to you to you!"
Hearing this, Roy came to a sudden realization. No wonder. There are actually such unspoken rules …
Roy was right. This was indeed an unspoken rule of the demon big shots of the Abyss. Although they used various methods to tempt and erode angels into fallen angels, as mentioned before, fallen angels were not the same species as demons after all. The saying that those who were not of the same race must have different hearts was very popular among demons. Demons loved and hated the existence of fallen angels, and the position of fallen angels in the Abyss had once been very awkward. Under such circumstances, the big shots who could create fallen angels would secretly restrict them due to various concerns.
This was also the real reason why most fallen angels had always been at the high-rank demon stage. It was not that they could no longer improve, but that the demon big bosses controlled this method of improvement …
But now, out of some unknown considerations, Samael actually removed this restriction for Julia, causing her strength to increase by a lot in an instant, and she also had the possibility of breaking through in the future.
After hearing Samael's words, Julia did not know what to think, but she still lowered her head. "Thank you for your bestowment, Your Excellency Samael."
Samael turned around and looked at Roy. "Demon Osiris, you did well. I removed the restriction on Julia, which means that she'll be free in the future. Since you've become partners with her, you can take her away!"
Roy nodded. "Thank you for your bestowment, Your Excellency Samael!"
"Okay, since I've appeared in the main world, your mission has been completed!" Samael said. "Leave this place. Otherwise, you might not be able to leave later!"
Julia was alarmed when she heard that. "Your Excellency Samael, what do you mean?"
"The Destroyer Abaddon sealed me and seized the command of the demon army. But he couldn't kill me, so he was worried that I would escape." Samael laughed sinisterly. "He chose four candidates and bestowed them with power to monitor the sealed land here. After obtaining the power of the Destroyer, these four candidates all became demon lord-level existences. Since I've appeared in the main world now, these guys monitoring me will soon notice. At that time, they'll definitely come to check. If you don't want to die, leave quickly!"
Julia wanted to say something, but Roy's heart stirred. He quickly pulled her and stopped her. Then Roy said to Samael, "Understood, Your Excellency Samael. We'll leave now!"
Samael probably saw Roy pulling Julia and looked at Roy playfully.
Roy did not wait for his instructions and pulled Julia away. After Roy and Julia were not far away, Samael said, "By the way, Julia, if there's a chance, you might be able to go back to your original world to take a look!"
"Yes, Your Excellency Samael!" Julia replied.
Julia's original world? The world of Devil May Cry? Is there a deeper meaning behind Samael's words?
Roy's mind raced when he heard this, but he did not stop and hurriedly left the sealed land with Julia.
After they were far away, Julia asked Roy in a low voice, "Why did you stop me from speaking just now?"
"You must want to say something like, if the candidates come, we'll help Samael deal with them, right?" Roy replied in a low voice. "Stop joking. Let's not talk about whether we can deal with the four demon lords. Do you think that with Demon King Samael's pride, he'll let us two high-rank demons help him fight?"
In fact, Roy still had something to say. After hearing the names of the candidates, Roy had already realized that the four candidates would probably be the bargaining chips for the Horseman of the Apocalypse, War, to reach a deal with Samael after he returned in the future. The demon hearts full of magic power of the four candidates were the key to Samael finding his strength.
If Samael and Lilith's plan was to instigate the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, then Samael would absolutely not let others kill these four candidates!
Otherwise, if Samael wanted to break free from the restraints of the seal, why would he not use Roy and Julia, who were connected to Lilith? Even if Roy and Julia were not strong enough to deal with the four demon lords, would Samael let Roy and Julia go to the Black Stone to find Lilith for help?
Therefore, when Samael was in a hurry to expel him and Julia, Roy had already reacted. To Samael, Roy and Julia's mission had indeed been completed. It was to build an altar so that he could appear in the main world. Since the mission was completed, Samael could not let Roy and Julia stay and get in the way, causing variables in his subsequent plans.
All of this was deduced by Roy after combining all sorts of situations, so he was in a hurry to pull Julia away.
However, he was a little curious as to why Samuel and Lilith's plan was so closely linked. What exactly did they rely on to make their judgment of the situation? Were they so confident that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse would betray the Charred Council?
In fact, Samael and Lilith's plan originated from something that happened many years ago when Samael was still in the Black Stone.
At that time, Samael was recuperating alone in the Black Stone, but suddenly, an unexpected person appeared. And this person was Death, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. At first, Samael thought that Death had received orders from the Charred Council to assassinate him, but then he realized that this was not the case. Death's appearance was actually an action without the permission of the Charred Council!
And most importantly, Death came to Samael only for the demon key in his hand.
After the battle with Death, Samael realized that there was something fishy about this, so he readily gave the demon key and let Death leave.
After Death left, Samael pondered for a long time and finally realized that Death's appearance should have come through time. In other words, something major must have happened in the future that forced Death to seek help from Lilith and return to the past to find him through Lilith's time magic!
History affected the future, and the future in turn affected the past. This was the power of time magic. With such a clue, Samael naturally had to do something. He knew that he would probably disappear for a period of time in the future, so when Lilith tempted Abaddon to fall into the Destroyer, he took advantage of the situation when the Destroyer came to seize power and pretended to be defeated and sealed, using this to confirm the future …
It was too complicated, but there was no doubt that Samael and Lilith's plan had succeeded. Be it the angels or the Charred Council, they were all playing in the palm of their hands …
Unknowingly, Roy and Julia had played their roles in this period of history. But next, it was the turn of the big shots and the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. With their current strength, they could not interfere too much in this play.
