"Argox?!" Hearing this, Dante was also shocked and asked, "Is it a hermaphrodite?!"
Otherwise, how could he be said to have the fate of a protagonist? In his life, Dante had fought many powerful demons. Not only was there Mundus, but there was also this Argox that Sparda had mentioned. In his impression, this Argox was a demon composed of golden flames all over his body. His appearance could change between male and female, and he could be said to be the most powerful enemy he had ever encountered (Argox in Devil May Cry 2 had the longest health bar in Devil May Cry history).
After hearing Dante's words, Sparda nodded. "Yes, Argox is a hermaphrodite demon. But when you met him, he should have been sealed, right?"
Dante nodded. This was why he was awesome. Perhaps it was because he was really lucky. Among the powerful demons he had encountered, be it Mundus or Argox, they seemed to be incomplete in a sealed state, so Dante had survived without exception and won …
"I was the one who sealed Argosax!" Sparda said. "But you might not know that when I sealed Argox, his strength might only be less than one percent of his peak!"
"No way? Was he that strong? " Dante was extremely surprised. In order to defeat Argox, he had exhausted all his strength, but Sparda actually said that he only had one percent of his peak strength?
The Spartan glanced at him and said, "That's because Argosax suffered heavy injuries in the battle with Asa! During the Primordial War, he represented the demon side and launched a legendary battle with Aesir on the angel side. After that battle, Archangel Aesir and Argox both suffered heavy injuries. But Argox was luckier. Although his strength plummeted, he was able to survive to recuperate and play some of his remaining power. Aesir, on the other hand, was seriously injured and died. In the end, after the angels went to the other world, he completely perished.
"It is precisely because Argosax's strength plummeted that he was slowly overtaken and replaced by Mundus. It can be said that the battle between Argosax and Arthana is the dividing point in the history of the Eternal War that occurred in this world. After Mundus replaced Argosax as the ruler of the Demon Realm, it was considered another historical period."
Hearing this, Cerberus could not help but interrupt. "This is different from the history we heard. What we heard was that Argox once occupied more than half of the Demon World, and he and Mundus competed for the position of ruler of the Demon World …"
"Hmph! That's a lie made up by Mundus! " Sparda snorted coldly. "The end of the Primordial War was ten thousand years ago, and Mundus came to this world about nine thousand years ago. When he came here, the Primordial War had already ended. The Argox he encountered was a Chaos overlord whose strength had already plummeted. He just took advantage of it."
Seeing that Cerberus still wanted to say something, Roy waved his hand to stop her. "If you have any questions, ask later. Sparda, continue. What happened next?"
"It's said that after Archangel Aesir fell after the war, all her power did not dissipate but condensed into a powerful angelic armament. This angelic armament is a divine artifact known as the Eyes of the World!" Sparda said. "I deduced this history by combining many legends of the two twin worlds. At that time, because Aesir could no longer continue fighting, she only existed as the manager of the other world. But later, she fell, and the Eyes of the World condensed after her fall … Then the Eyes of the World were divided by the angels and became the Left Eye of Darkness and the Right Eye of Light. According to Aesir's last wish, the angels gave them to the People of Light and the People of Darkness to hold together …
"The reason why these two completely different divine artifacts were formed is that Archangel Aesir's power is Chaos power! In the legends of the other world, Aesir is now known as the God of Chaos and has been deified … "
"Chaos power?" Roy heard this sensitive word again and immediately asked, "What kind of power is that? Also, is Argox called the Chaos overlord because he also possesses Chaos power? "
"Yes!" Sparda nodded. "But their level of power isn't something I can see, so I can't describe to you what kind of power 'Chaos' is. Perhaps it's the power of light and darkness at the same time …"
"No, that's not right!" Roy shook his head.
Just having the power of light and darkness at the same time can be called Chaos power? How is this possible? Not to mention light and darkness, Roy now possesses all seven elemental powers, but he has not seen any qualitative breakthrough …
Mundus, the demon king, also possesses the power of light, but he has not become a Chaos demon …
Why did Lilith try so hard to create a Chaos Demon in the first place? If possessing the power of light and darkness can be called a Chaos demon, then the Abyss is so big, and there are countless demons. Could it be that there are not even one or two?
Therefore, Roy felt that Sparda was wrong. Archangel Aesir and Argox might not only have the power of light and darkness.
Since one of them was called the God of Chaos, and the other was called the Chaos overlord, it could be seen that their powers were very similar. If possible, Roy really wanted to find these two and experience their powers … However, Argox's strength had fallen greatly, and he had even been defeated and sealed by Dante, so Roy could not see him even if he wanted to. On the other hand, the Right Eye of Light and the Left Eye of Darkness left behind by Archangel Aesir in the other world might be able to combine into the Eyes of the World. Perhaps the Eyes of the World even had the information and characteristics of Aesir's former Chaos power …
Thinking of this, Roy could not help but feel his heart palpitate. To be honest, he knew his own situation, and he found that after becoming a demon lord, the ascension channel seemed to have fallen into a bottleneck. He wanted to become a demon king, but he did not know how to start. Currently, he had just made some inferences from the known situation and knew that there were at least two conditions to become a demon king: one was to have an immortal soul, and the other was to have 'authority'.
An immortal soul might be fine. After coming to the Devil May Cry world this time, Mundus had given him an example. Although his method of plundering other people's Ouroboros Marks to become an immortal soul was strange, it was still a path no matter what. But as for 'authority' …
From what he knew about some demon kings, the word 'authority' vaguely revealed the meaning of grasping some kind of rule power and obtaining the power of creation with the power of rule … But Roy was completely clueless about how to grasp this power …
However, after hearing about the situation in the other world from Sparda, Roy suddenly realized that perhaps the power left behind by Archangel Aesir might be the opportunity for him to become a higher level!
If he could obtain the Eyes of the World, not only could he truly experience the power of a demon king, but he might also obtain more revelations about Chaos power …
Just as Roy was thinking this, he heard Dante ask Sparda, "Old man, what you said seems to be going a little too far. What are you trying to say through these things?"
Sparda sighed. "What I want to say is that perhaps Mundus is also coveting the power of the Eyes of the World!"
"Huh?!" Hearing this, Roy suddenly raised his head and looked at Sparda. He now regarded the Eyes of the World as his. Hearing Sparda say that Mundus was also coveting this divine artifact, Roy naturally felt unhappy.
"There's a basis for this guess!" Sparda spread his hands at Roy. "Because Balder is the last Lumen Sage, and he's the wielder of the Right Eye of Light. But now that he's saved Mundus's soul, he's a collaborator. How can I not think of this?"
"What does Mundus want the Eyes of the World for?" Nero asked.
"He wants to become a true demon king!" Benia snorted coldly and revealed Mundus's goal. "He's not a true demon king, but he has already obtained an immortal soul. If he can obtain 'authority' through the power of the Eyes of the World, then he can become a true demon king!"
Dante and Vergil looked at each other. To be honest, in the eyes of ordinary humans, they did not understand the power levels of demons at all, including Dante and the other mixed-blood Children of Taboo. In their impression, demons like Mundus and Argosax were all existences known as demon kings. But now that they heard from Roy and the other true Abyss demons, it seemed that the meaning of the word 'demon king' was different from what humans knew …
Ignoring the doubts of Dante and Vergil, Sparda began to ponder after hearing Benia's guess.
"There's another question!" Julia said. "If Mundus covets the Eyes of the World, then what does Balder covet? He's the wielder of the Right Eye of Light. It's impossible for him to blindly do good things after cooperating with Mundus and offer the Right Eye of Light to achieve Mundus's great cause, right? "
"That's right. I think Balder should have other plans!" Nero nodded in agreement.
Roy suddenly asked Sparda, "After Aesir fell, what level is the power of Heaven in the other world?"
"There should be seraphs at the first level!" Sparda thought for a moment. "Compared to demons, they should be stronger than ordinary demon lords. But I think with your strength, it won't be a problem for you to deal with them, including me …"
"Okay, let's recruit demons!" Roy immediately decided. "Mundus, the ruler, has run away now, and we have the final say in the Demon World. In that case, let's bring the demon army over. After we reach the other side, no matter what Mundus and Balder want to do, we'll soon be able to figure it out!"
"…" Sparda was silent. He could not make a decision now. He had sealed the spatial channels of the two twin worlds to prevent and avoid a new round of the Eternal War. Now that Roy proposed to bring the demon army over, wouldn't it make this war start early?
But if he let Mundus leave, who knew what would happen when he returned? What if it caused the Eternal War to become even more tragic?
After hesitating for a while, Sparda said, "Okay, but I think the number of troops shouldn't be too large. It's best to control it within a local war. As long as we temporarily block Heaven's attack and buy us time to capture or seal Mundus, it'll be fine."
"Okay!" Roy nodded, but he thought that Sparda's plan might fail because after the real war started, it would probably not be so easy to control …
