After listening to Sareth's words, Roy and Sparda were surprised.
"Who is this guy?" Roy asked doubtfully. "How does he know so much about the secret of demon king promotion?"
"I'm also very suspicious. Maybe this guy is also a demon king-level demon. Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why he knows this …" Sparda spread his hands. "It seems like the water in the twin worlds is quite deep …"
Roy stroked his demon horns and said thoughtfully, "Madama Styx and the others know that there's a demon like Rodin. They also said that he used to be an angel, but they don't know anything about why he fell and why. Heaven doesn't seem to have any information about Rodin's past, as though someone deliberately erased his past story."
"Foster Father, can his words be trusted?" Sareth asked.
"It's hard to say …" Roy deliberated over his words. "If Balder is really plotting for Bayonetta's Left Eye of Darkness, then what Rodin said should be true. After all, this matter concerns Bayonetta, and his relationship with her isn't ordinary. He should want to help Bayonetta solve the problem of the Lumen Sage … But the problem is that I don't know how credible his words are. From what you described, it was too easy to obtain this information. Rodin doesn't show the shrewdness that a demon should have at all."
"That's right. He didn't even make any transactions. He spilled everything like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube." Sareth nodded. "This doesn't seem like the behavior of demons …"
"It's hard to say if it's true. After all, this guy used to be an angel, so it's normal for him to not be like ordinary demons …" Sparda pondered. "We only need to consider if there are lies in his words, then what goal does he want to achieve with these lies?"
"The greatest possibility is to trick us into fighting the so-called Goddess of Light, Jubileus, and then let both demons and angels suffer heavy losses …" Roy guessed. "From how he helped Bayonetta deal with the angels, he doesn't have any good impression of the angels. But at the same time, he's plundering demons in the Demon World, indicating that he also hates demons."
Sparda nodded. "Indeed, this is the greatest possibility."
"Foster Father, what should we do next?" Sareth asked blankly.
"Do what you have to do!" Roy grinned sinisterly. "Just attack Heaven directly. If what Rodin said is true, and Balder really wants to resurrect the Goddess of Light, then he has to come to Heaven."
"You think Dante and the others will come up empty?" Silas asked.
Roy nodded. "It's very likely. Now that Heaven and the Demon World are at war, Balder, a Lumen Sage, definitely can't borrow the power of too many angels. He might be confident in dealing with Bayonetta, but with Dante and the other two half-demons, he might not necessarily be able to do so. So as long as he's not stupid, after discovering that Bayonetta, Dante, and the others appeared, he will definitely come to Heaven … Moreover, the body of the Goddess of Light Jubileus is definitely on the side of Heaven.
Logically speaking, he will come here. "Sareth used his fingers to organize his thoughts and finally came to a realization." I understand. Foster Father, you mean that Dante and the others happen to be driving Balder and Mundus to Heaven on the side of the human world. We only need to wait for them. Is that right? "
Roy laughed and reached out to rub Sareth's red hair. "Go and participate in the battle on the battlefield. Such a battle is incomparable to the improvement of your strength and combat experience. You just have to be careful not to face enemies that are too strong."
Sareth nodded, took out Executioner, spread his flame wings, and flew forward. This child was smart. He planned to meet up with Junia first. With her protection, he could kill enemies with peace of mind.
After Sareth left, Sparda said worriedly, "If Balder really intends to synthesize a divine spark, then it'll be a little troublesome. If Dante and the others can't stop the synthesis process, can the many Ouroboros Marks in Mundus' soul still be extracted?"
"We'll see when the time comes. There's no point in thinking about this in advance. We'll talk about it after we really take back Mundus' soul," Roy said.
Sparda sighed. "Okay, anyway, the worst-case scenario is nothing more than Balder's plan succeeding, and the Goddess of Light Jubileus reappears in Heaven … Speaking of which, Osiris, if Jubileus really revives, what do you plan to do? She's an Archangel! There's no existence in the Demon World that can match her … "
"Don't worry. If Jubileus really revives, I'll use my trump card!" Roy grinned sinisterly. "What I'm more curious about now is why Jubileus, the Goddess of Light, fell into a long slumber despite being so powerful. What kind of accident happened to her, and who caused her accident?"
"I'm also very curious. To be honest, when I heard Sareth say that this Goddess of Light was actually the successor of Archangel Aesir in Heaven, I was shocked!" Sparda said. "If Jubileus hadn't fallen into a long slumber at that time, perhaps Heaven would have directly counterattacked the Demon World. Argosax was seriously injured at that time, and he was unable to resist Jubileus at all …"
"Yes, it feels like these two twin worlds form a pattern of Heaven on one side and the Demon World on the other, as though someone is pushing it …" Roy said thoughtfully. "Could it be …"
"Could it be what? Did you think of something? "Sparda asked.
"… No, maybe I'm thinking too much …" Roy shook his head.
Sparda looked at him for a while before finally nodding and not continuing to ask.
Although Roy was expressionless, he was actually a little frightened because a name suddenly flashed in his mind just now.
Samael …
Because of Julia, Roy knew that Samael had come to this world before. But from the mouths of the native demons of the Demon World, Roy found that no demon had noticed that Samael had come. He came and left quietly, only taking away one soul and transforming it into the fallen angel Julia.
Indeed, the ruler of the Demon World at that time was the golden demon Argosax. According to the principle of a king not seeing another king, it seemed reasonable for Samael to leave quietly. But why did Samael not alarm anything else but only take away one soul?
What's so special about this soul?
Previously, Roy had always thought that Samael had picked up Julia's soul when he saw the angels retreating. But now that he suddenly learned that Archangel Jubileus had fallen into a long slumber because of an accident, Roy could not help but begin to imagine.
Could it be … that the soul that Samael took away was Jubileus's?!
Logically speaking, it was very difficult for Samael to obtain the soul of an Archangel like Jubileus. But what if Samael ambushed her when she had just arrived in this world and had yet to gain a stable footing?
Not to mention that it was impossible, the soul of an Archangel was definitely worth Samael taking action!
If that was the case, then Julia's origins were not simple. She was very likely a fallen angel transformed from a portion of the soul of the Goddess of Light Jubileus!
The reason why he said that it was only a portion of her soul was that the strength that Julia displayed was relatively weak. In addition to the fact that her body and soul might not match, it might also be because her soul was incomplete, causing her strength to be greatly affected.
And Jubileus's main body had also fallen into a long slumber because of the sudden loss of most of her soul. It had to be known that having one's soul snatched away was completely different from actively splitting one's soul. Even if Jubileus's soul could recover, it would probably take a long time.
Roy did not know how likely his guess was, but if that was the case, then there was a problem that he had to consider.
That was, how to deal with the souls of Jubileus and Julia …
