Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Zatiel flew at an incredible speed to the meeting point he settled with the female Devil Lord, Kita. Every time his wings moved, his momentum grew higher, and the lesser devils beneath him looked at the sky with fear.

Although both Kenner and Kita had teleportation formations capable of connecting their fortress, none of them would allow such a thing to happen.

In a battle, a Devil Lord could use that type of portal to enter the core of the other's territories, or worse, send a destructive device that could decimate everything.

Even the Magi World's organizations did not have that type of teleportation formation built between them.

As the Neo-Demon was getting closer to the female Devil Lord, he analyzed his strength.

'My current battle power is between the 2nd and 3rd Engraving Stage if I go all out. I can handle the Counts, but the Marquises have already established the elementary form of their Sacred Body of Laws. If I encounter one of them, my best chance is to attack their souls and then escape. I have two goals in this mission. One is to gather resources to train my body, and the second is to capture as many Rank 4 Devils as possible. Regarding the technique of the Blood Duke, I couldn't care less.'

No matter how great the Blood Duke's technique was, it could not compare with the ones in Zatiel's mind.

After half an hour of flying, Zatiel finally saw the female Devil Lord. Kita looked like a beautiful elf with two horns, and there was an enchanting aura surrounding her body.

The woman's eyes narrowed when she noticed the changes in the physical appearance of "Kenner". She still greeted him with a smile but raised her guard.

The female Devil Lord tried to hide her suspicions, but she could not trick Zatiel.

'Devils, paranoid garbage, always making things more difficult.' Everything else about the Neo-Demon was the same as Kenner's, but the woman still felt distrust for his wings and eyes.

"My devil bloodline grew stronger." Zatiel offered no more explanation. If he did, it would only make Kita's suspicions grow.

Bloodlines significantly impact a creature's appearance, which was even more true in fiends, so the Neo-Demon's explanation made perfect sense.

"I see. Let's go." Kita did not say anything else, and although she made it seem as if she lowered her guard, Zatiel's eyes showed him how she was mobilizing her energy in secret and was ready to strike.

Although moving through the sky was dangerous since anyone could detect them, they were powerful Rank 5 life forms. Their strength allowed them to ignore whether or not they are spotted.

The duo flew in complete silence for the first thirty minutes before Zatiel opened his mouth.

"I have a piece of information regarding the Blood Fortress that could be useful for you. It is related to an alteration made in the laws of that place."

A flash of interest immediately appeared in the eyes of the female Devil Lord, and she turned to the side, only to see Zatiel staring at her.

"What do you want in exchange?" Kita understood their relationship very well. There was no way Kenner would give her something out of the kindness of his heart.

"I heard that you have a Bone Devil Heart. I want it."

"Impossible!" The female Devil Lord showed a trace of killing intent the moment Zatiel mentioned that object.

A Bone Devil Heart was not an organ but a treasure, a type of plant born in a place where powerful life forms have died and whose vitality has changed the terrain. It purified the bones of a life form and helped the entrance to the 3rd Engraving Stage.

Zatiel did not truly need that treasure since the Law of Rebirth constantly refines his body. He just wanted to bring out a subject that would draw Kita's full attention.

The Neo-Demon did not do anything after seeing the woman's killing intent and limited himself to stare coldly at her.

Kita understood she could not defeat the Devil Lord. While both were at the 2nd Engraving Stage, the woman had entered recently while the blue devil was at the peak. Most of her rage came from the fact Kenner managed to learn a secret from her.

After seeing that she calmed down, Zatiel kept speaking with her, trying by every means to obtain the heart. He offered various treasures, promised help, and made subtle threats.

During the entire conversation, Zatiel made sure they maintained eye contact.

When the Neo-Demon saw that everything was failing and the female Devil Lord was about to end the conversation, he offered something he knew she could not pass.

"I can also give you the technique that helped me increase the power of my devil bloodline."

Kita could not hide the desire in her heart from showing in her face. The bloodline and True Name are the core of most devils' power, at least until they manage to reach Rank 7. No matter how slight, any improvement in either of them was something every fiend strived to obtain.

"I want a sample." Although the Bone Devil Heart was useful for Kita's next advance, improving her bloodline was more important.

Zatiel kept his eyes on the woman as he took a crystal from his ring and began to imprint some information in it. He stayed like that for more than five minutes, and although Kita was getting impatient, she did not look away.

The Neo-Demon had finished in the first minute. He was stalling for time until he finally felt it.

'The connection has been established!.' Zatiel was thrilled but did not show it on his face and handed the crystal to Kita.

The female Devil Lord immediately analyzed the technique, and a look of understanding appeared on her face as she stared at the Devil Lord.

The principle behind the technique Zatiel handed it over was to use your offspring in a cruel ritual, where their life force would be ignited to enhance the bloodline inside them.

They would burn to ashes until only a ball of condensed blood essence remained. After that, the Devil Lord would consume it and improve his bloodline.

Kita believed she had figured out why Kenner's descendants had disappeared all of a sudden.

The cruelty of the Devil Lord did not affect her. On the contrary, she unconsciously lowered her guard a little as she had a better picture of the strange events that happened in Kenner's fortress.

The female Devil Lord immediately agreed to the exchange after seeing the technique.

Zatiel imprinted the entire technique in a crystal and traded it for a rock, the size of a fist, that had veins and was beating.

Kita began to memorize the technique once she had it in her hands.

A cruel smile appeared on her face. If it wasn't for the fact the technique needed a lot of preparations, and she had to take part in the mission, the female Devil Lord would have returned to her fortress and devoured her children.

After she finished learning the technique, Kita stared at Zatiel. She was waiting for the other part of the deal.

The Neo-Demon no longer cared about the woman since she was no a threat after forming the connection, but it was still too early to shred all pretenses.

"The Blood Fortress was affected by the Blood Duke's laws. Our souls and energy will be weakened, so we will have to rely mostly on our bodies to fight."

Kita frowned when she heard that, and envy appeared in her eyes as she focused on Zatiel.

Her battle style focused on illusion and bewitching abilities. Although her body was still strong due to her demonic bloodline and the laws she had engraved in it, it could not compare with Kenner's.

"I guess you got lucky."

Zatiel only glanced at the woman before looking forward. He was not Kenner, and his energy pool and Law Avatar were an essential part of his battle power.

'My illusion and soul invasion spells depend on my Rebirth Eye and unique Mind Force. I hope the laws do not hinder them as well.'

The duo kept flying for another three hours before finally reaching their destination. Two groups have already formed there, and they were both showing pure killing intent.
