The so-called true name was not only possessed by demons. In fact, angels also had true names, and dragons also had true names. All races that relied on soul memories to inherit would have true names.
And the reason why these races with true names would try their best to conceal their true names was naturally because of the existence of the power of the 'spirit of words' in mysticism.
It had to be known that true names were inherited in soul memories, so they were naturally linked to the souls of living beings. When an enemy knew your true name, they could theoretically touch your soul through the power of the spirit of words and directly cause tremendous damage to your soul. This damage could not even be defended against …
Of course, Sparda knew Mundus's true name. Of course, he did not know all of it, only part of it. How should he put it? This part of Mundus's true name was not deliberately discovered by Sparda, but it was inadvertently exposed by Mundus himself.
After unifying the Demon World, Mundus became more and more arrogant and began to regard himself as a god, trying to make all creatures worship and believe in him.
Listen to the titles he gave himself: Emperor of the Demon World, Eternal Supreme, Creator of the Demon World, Holy Father of demons, Great Creator, Emperor Mundus. When he made statues for himself, he even portrayed his image like a god … During this process, a portion of his true name was inevitably exposed.
Although it was only a portion, it was enough for him to obtain a huge advantage when fighting Mundus.
In game terms, if the enemy knew all of the true names of demons, then the enemy could deal 100% true damage that ignored defense to him. Although Sparda only knew part of Mundus's true name and could not reach 100%, there was always at least 30% or 40%.
Sparda himself was one of the Chosen of the Abyss. Although no one really knew what these so-called 'Chosen of the Abyss' were, there was no doubt that they were demons with excellent talent and could grow rapidly. It was not a coincidence that Sparda was chosen. Not only was he proficient in sword skills, but he was also very good at dark sealing magic. It could be said that although there was still a gap between Sparda and Mundus, the gap was not big.
Thus, during the battle with Mundus, Sparda found an opportunity and directly sealed Mundus!
With the power of a demon lord, defeating a demon who was about to become a demon king was truly inconceivable, but Sparda had indeed done it.
Of course, he could only seal Mundus but could not truly kill him. After plundering and absorbing the Ouroboros Marks of all the demons in the Demon World, Mundus's soul was already an immortal existence. At this level, let alone Sparda, even Archangels like Gabriel and Michael would not be able to completely purify Mundus's soul.
Demon Kings could only be sealed, but they could not die. This had always been a saying in the Abyss.
Although he had successfully sealed Mundus, the name of Sparda as a traitor could not be washed away. In addition, he had indeed committed an act of insubordination, so all the demons in the Demon World regarded him as an enemy, and there was no place for Sparda in the Demon World.
As a last resort, Sparda could only go to the human world.
Interestingly, no one knew where the news came from. At that time, when the humans in the human world heard about the upheaval in the Demon World, they really thought that Sparda had betrayed his compatriots to protect them, so they regarded Sparda as their savior, praised him for having a noble soul, and worshipped him endlessly.
After losing Mundus's rule, the demons of the Demon World no longer had any restraints. They once again became scattered sand and fought their own battles, so they naturally could not invade the human world on a large scale. From this point of view, Sparda had really saved the human world once, allowing the humans of this world to obtain a chance to recuperate and develop civilization.
The power that Sparda used to seal Mundus would weaken over time, but this seal lasted for two thousand years. During these two thousand years, Sparda spent most of his time in the human world, allowing him to observe humans better and more carefully.
Perhaps because he had observed for too long, Sparda was gradually influenced by humans. Not only did he create a human incarnation for himself, but he also had human-like feelings. So one day two thousand years later, he fell in love with a human woman, Eva, and thus Dante and Vergil were born.
However, the flag of returning to his hometown to get married was like some kind of curse. Not only was it effective on humans, but it was also effective on demons. Not long after Sparda got married and had children, Mundus of the Demon World broke through the seal, and Sparda's family immediately fell apart …
His wife died tragically, and his children were separated. Sparda was in great pain at that time, and he realized that as long as Mundus was still alive, it was impossible for him and his family to have a peaceful life. So not long after the tragedy, Sparda quietly sneaked back into the Demon World and wanted to find a way to seal Mundus again.
However, when he returned to the Demon World, he found that Mundus had not done nothing during the two thousand years he had been sealed. Even though he had been sleeping in the seal most of the time, he would occasionally be awake for a period of time. It was during this period that Mundus could contact his demon subordinates and order them to do things.
Through investigation, Sparda found that Mundus had been plotting an enormous conspiracy, and it seemed to be about to succeed.
Therefore, under the urgency of the situation, Sparda could not care so much. He gave up the opportunity to challenge Mundus for revenge again and chose to use himself as the sealing medium to stop Mundus's conspiracy …
Sparda's description of the situation to Roy was not so detailed. Roy deduced the cause and effect based on Sparda's description and what he knew.
"So, you mean that you want to continue maintaining the seal and hand the task of repelling Mundus to me?" Roy concluded. Then he looked at Sparda with a sneer. "Have you ever thought about what if I refuse?"
Roy supported his chin with one hand and tilted his head to look at Sparda. "Mundus hates you the most, not me! It can even be said that Mundus and I have never even met, so why should I take the risk of fighting a demon king to help you? "
"Hehe!" Sparda let out a deep laugh. "Demon Osiris, because I know you won't refuse. I already know your intentions through the memories in the soul fragment. I can tell you everything I know about the Demon Bible. I also pursued the Demon Bible back then, so I'm sure that I know more than you! Also, the Ouroboros Mark in your souls was snatched away by Mundus when you entered this world. Even if you immediately return to the Abyss, this mark won't be able to return. Moreover, this state of losing the mark will always accompany you. No matter which world you go to next, the mark won't appear again, so if you want to take back the mark, you have to defeat Mundus! "
"You're certain that I'll help you …" Roy sighed. "As expected of an old demon who has lived for nearly ten thousand years!"
After hearing Roy's words, Dante could not help but sneak a glance at his brother, Vergil. Vergil had really inherited his father's deep scheming …
Sparda did not say anything and just looked at Roy. He knew that after he said so much, this Demon Lord Osiris in front of him would definitely give in.
However, what he did not expect was that after Roy stood up, he suddenly grinned sinisterly. "Actually, I have another choice!"
With that, before Sparda could react, Roy suddenly waved his hand and summoned Frostmourne. Powerful magic power quickly condensed on the sword, and then he slashed at the magic power chain tying Sparda to the seal formation!
"No! Don't! "Sparda could not help but shout.
But it was too late. Magic power sparks burst out from Roy's Frostmourne, and the chain was immediately cut off!
Roy used this violent method to directly destroy the seal formation set up by Sparda!
The moment the Mana Chain broke, the ground where the seal was located immediately trembled. The pentagram seal was simply connected one after another. After the seal at this point was destroyed, the seals at the other four points suddenly had a chain reaction, and one after another, they broke one after another.
The ground trembled, and Sparda could not help but roar at Roy, "Damn it! What did you do?! Even if you're unwilling to fight against Mundus, there's no need to destroy the seal formation! "
"I asked you what you were sealing, but you didn't tell me!" Roy calmly inserted Frostmourne into the ground in front of him and smiled. "I'm very curious, so I chose the second option, which is to destroy the seal and release you. This way, won't there be two people who can fight against Mundus?"
"You …" Sparda was about to say something angrily, but at this moment, his body, which was scattered in the other four seal formations, had already appeared beside him and fused with his body. For a moment, he could not care less about condemning Roy.
Yes, to Roy, this second option was the most advantageous for him because he could not really take the huge risk to fight Mundus alone just because of Sparda's words. After so many years, Sparda's mind had long changed. He did not seem to regard himself as a demon anymore, so just like how he could not trust Roy, his compatriot from the Abyss, Roy could not trust him either. Therefore, Roy felt that he should release Sparda, who Mundus hated the most, and let him be the main force of the fight while Roy only needed to support from the side.
With the Legendary demon swordsman Sparda, the success rate of defeating Mundus would greatly increase. As long as he could defeat Mundus, it was only a matter of time before he took back the Ouroboros Mark. As for what Sparda knew about the Demon Bible, Roy also had a way to make him say it … Don't forget, Dante and Vergil were here …
The trembling of the ground became more and more intense, and the altar of the seal formation was gradually collapsing. A vast amount of magic power soared into the sky from the altar, and it was the same for the other four pentagrams. When the five enormous magic powers met in the sky of the Demon World, a pitch-black, incomparably enormous hole appeared in the sky of the Demon World.
"W-what's that?!" Nero looked at the hole with his mouth wide open. Although he could not see it, he could roughly sense it, so he could not help but exclaim.
Sparda had already fused with his body and could not help but sigh. "It's a spatial channel!"
"Spatial channel? Where does it lead to? "Julia asked.
"It leads to a twin world that's very similar to this world!" Sparda could no longer hide it. "This world is an extremely rare twin world in the Infinite Worlds. Although its appearance is wrapped in the Purgatory Space, if you pass through the Purgatory Space, you won't return to the Void but to another extremely similar world!"
"Twin world? That's really rare, but … "Benia asked curiously." Why did you seal this channel? "
"Because the world on that side is the world occupied by the defeated Heaven!" Sparda said. "After they lost the battle with the Demon World, they did not return to Heaven but went to the twin world and stationed there. Now that this channel has opened again, in other words, a new Eternal War will begin, and the two twin worlds will fall into the endless flames of war …"
