At the outskirts of Third Heaven System, thousands of spaceships watched in horror as the planet was suddenly engulfed by sea of flames before exploding. The demons seated inside the spaceships shouted in unison.
Even though they were demons, unable to feel empathy and love, they still had something they treasured there. They still had some sort of feelings. Now, it was all gone.
''I-It must have been the work of those vermins!'' A Demon General shouted from command deck. With enraged expression, he pointed into vast space, and shouted, ''Onwards, the battle is awaiting for us!''
However, not even demon joined with the battlecry. Their gazes were still locked on the windows, with destroyed planet donning the scenery...
...
Beelzebub's trembled fist slowly loosened. All of his regret and anger disappeared like a fleeting wind. Then, his eyes widened as he realized what had happened. He turned to a blank space, where a figure appeared, jogging like he was touring through a city.
''?'' Shiva turned to the strange man who had just appeared. He was innocently smiling as he ran toward them. He had black hair, a beautiful face, and was quite tall. He donned a red robe, which was quite a strange choice since the rest of him looked quite gentle.
''What are you doing here?'' Beelzebub said sharply. ''This is my fight.''
''Easy now.'' The man chuckled. ''We are having a meeting, now.''
''Now?'' Beelzebub frowned. ''Where?''
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt''Here.'' The man pointed below his feet. Then, suddenly, five more figures appeared from thin air. They all possessed endless levels of strength, like they could destroy a celestial universe all by themselves!
Shiva held his throat since he felt like he couldn't breathe. It was something he hadn't felt ever before. It only meant one thing, the final bosses had arrived.
''Ah, we have guest.'' The gentle-looking man turned to Shiva and smiled as he buckled his knees and bowed. ''My name is Belphegor, The Demon King of Sixth Heaven. Sorry for my colleagues' rudeness.''
'As I expected... and these people must be...' Shiva's face turned more pale, making his blue skin look more of a light blue, almost like sky.
''God.'' A short-spoken man hovered in the space. He had a short mustache donning his upper lip, and his skin was light red with unimpressive facial features. He looked like a gangster from 1900s, with short top hat and red suit.
He was Mammon, the Demon King of Seventh Heaven.
''Let him stay, we are going to have more guests.'' A long blue-haired man said with droopy eyes. He smelled like salt water, and his skin was covered in blue hide. His eyes were blue, and he had a cold-looking face and pale lips.
He was Leviathan, the Demon King of Fifth Heaven.
''Ah, I can smell the scent of beauty!'' A man with an inhumanly handsome face said with a grin. He had two short, sharp horns poking through his forehead, and he donned a beautiful crimson robe. His hair was black, tied in a ponytail, and he looked like a cultivator from some ancient tales.
He was Asmodeus, the Demon King of Fourth Heaven.
''Asmodeus, don't act rash. We are just going to talk with them.'' A man with blood-red mask said beside him. He had two razor-sharp horns poking through the mask, spreading fear to everyone who saw them. He donned a dark robes with crimson boots.
He was Satan, the Demon King of Second Heaven.
''Tsk, let's just take everything with force, like we have done before! Right, Lucifer?'' Asmodeus turned to the last man, who had yet to make an appearance on the big stage.
''This isn't the same.'' Lucifer said. He had long black eyelashes, and with his delicate and beautiful face, he looked almost like a woman. However, his masculine features couldn't be hidden. Broad shoulders, well-chiseled jawline, and sharp red eyes. He wore a golden-rimmed crown and donned a golden robes over his body.
He was Lucifer, the Demon King of First Heaven.
The rest of the Demon Kings turned on Lucifer. What did he mean by not the same?
Lucifer showed a discreet smile and said. ''Because, this time, if we go into all-out war, some of us will die.''
The Demon Kings showed varied emotions. There was arrogance, and they thought that his words were only to scare them. However, Beelzebub glanced at Shiva and was on Lucifer's side. There were strong people on their enemies' side.
Lucifer placed his arms behind his back and turned to Shiva with a smile. ''Hello, God of Destruction.''
The rest of the Demon Kings turned to Shiva. Stared by seven, perhaps the strongest creatures in the entire universe, would make anyone faint. However, he managed to stay calm under the tremendous pressure.
''What happened?'' Lucifer said and frowned. He could feel a lot loss of life, mostly in demons side.
''He destroyed my planet.'' Beelzebub said with a neutral tone. His anger had already disappeared after Belphegor used his ability on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm''Oh.'' Lucifer said and stopped caring immediately after. ''Just choose a new one. Not a big deal.''
''Let me choose a thousand humans for slaves before anyone else.''
Lucifer turned to Beelzebub and shrugged his shoulders, ''Fine.''
''Hmm, how did he destroy your planet?'' Asmodeus asked curiously.
''He has power of destruction. He can only wish it for it to happen and it will.'' Beelzebub said with a tired expression.
''Oh, that's dangerous!'' Belphegor said with a giggle.
''I can destroy all the heavens now, if I want to.'' Shiva said with a tiny smile. ''And, I kind of want to.''
''Tsk, tsk.'' Belphegor clicked his tongue and opened his mouth. ''Don't talk.''
''?'' Shiva frowned and tried to talk. However, he couldn't. It was like his lips were glued!
''Can he destroy things by thinking about it?'' Belphegor asked while scratching his head. ''Umm, don't think about destroying.''
Shiva's eyes widened in shock. All the thoughts about destroying their planets disappeared. However, he still had that thought at the back of his mind, but without properly thinking about it, he couldn't destroy them!
Lucifer casually crossed his arms and stared at the gas planet, Jupiter, while waiting. As the first signs of yawning were about to come, he felt the arrival of several presences.
''They are finally here.''
