Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World-Novel

Chapter 777 Or to overcome your evil nature through great effort

Ezequiel's eyes narrowed as he saw the lifeless body of Venganza fall to the ground. There was no sign of soul aura or life force, but he could not help but feel that something was off.

However, a heartbeat pushed all those thoughts to the back of his mind. It came from the only living thing other than him and Final Dawn in Dis, the black cocoon where the bloody humanoid entered with the True Soul.

A strange force permeated the Iron City of Dis, one capable of immense power and twisting the laws that formed reality.

Just as Ezequiel was ready to push Final Dawn away and regain his freedom, the black cocoon transformed into dust, showing the figure of a four-meter-tall man. He had white skin, red hair, and yellow eyes.

What shocked Ezequiel the most was the man's similarity with Zatiel's appearance. They were similar yet different, just like one would expect from brothers.

The man stood in the sky of Dis in silence as he looked at his body with confusion. However, it was not long before clarity and enlightenment filled his eyes.

Ezequiel saw how the man turned toward him, making his instincts scream. They were warning of the immense power of that person.

The Supreme Neo-Demon prepared for an attack, but to his surprise, the man waved his hand, sending Final Dawn back to Eternal Nightmare and retrieving the Red Sun of Wrath.

When the heavenly body made of Ira's ego appeared floating around the man's forehead, it began to vibrate, and so did the man.

The man closed his eyes as the Red Sun of Wrath began harmonizing with his existence. Finally, a phantom emerged from the heavenly body and fused with the man, making a red eye appear on his forehead.

Ezequiel saw all that with awe and shock. His soul and perception were powerful enough to understand what happened to the man.

The man's yellow eyes and third red eye unleashed different soul auras. There were two egos inside that same body, yet there was no sign of struggle or conflict.

A serene smile appeared on the man's face as he felt the changes in his existence.

"This fusion level was something I could not even dream of before. Now that I have shed my old self, I can finally embark on my true Path of Power!"

Just as he uttered those words, a golden storm began to manifest above Baator. It was so immense that it swallowed the broken pieces of Avernus!

Ezequiel's eyes narrowed as he saw that storm. There was no way he would forget the phenomenon that less than a few hours ago led to the evolution of his True Will. However, he soon noticed there was something different.

When Ezequiel's True Will attempted to evolve into Rank 9, the Universe Will Storm sought to defeat him, but there was no anger or rage. It was only a trial, and the Supreme Neo-Demon needed to overcome it if he wanted his True Will to become a Concept.

Yet, the Universe Will Storm that emerged above Baator and targeted the man was full of killing intent. It wanted to erase the man's existence, and the disgust and loath were palpable.

The man felt that, but the serene smile on his face did not vanish. There was no anger or rage as he saw the Universe Will Storm, only pride and determination.

"You see my kind as errors, as flaws in your perfect habitat. Even Archfiends and monsters are allowed to thrive, yet we can only exist as long as we stick to our roles." The man spoke calmly, but his voice carried monstrous fighting will that seemed capable of sundering the sky.

"My friend, are you ready to transcend with me?"

As soon as the man said that, the third red eye trembled, and a desire for battle burst.

Of all the things the man said, that was the one that shocked Ezequiel the most. He was almost sure that man was Venganza, but there was something different about him, and the word friend made things clear.

There was sincerity behind that, but it was paradoxical since a Depravita simply could not see others as friends. It was like asking fire to cool you down. However, it happened.

"Hahaha, great." The man laughed as he focused on the Universe Will Storm. "We, Venganza and Ira, are ready to face you!"

A mighty aura full of courage and determination arose from the man, something that you would never expect to feel from a monster that emerged from the Depravita Race.

"BOOM!" A powerful arc of golden lightning emerged from the Universe Will Storm.

.

Venganza smiled as that lightning arc landed on his body, sending him to the ground.

Ezequiel's eyes widened as he saw that arc of lightning. Not only was the attack more than five stronger than the ones he faced at the start of the Universe Will Storm's trial, but it also carried a physical component.

The Universe Will wanted to erase any sign of Venganza and Ira from existence.

"Hahaha." Venganza rose from the ground as he laughed. Blood leaked from the corner of his mouth, but the damage he received could not compare with what he was achieving.

After Venganza chose to embark on this path and finally overcome his nature, his mind achieved a level of freedom that was impossible to describe accurately. It was like all the hate and anger that marked his birth faded away, allowing him to think for himself, to become more than just a monster born out of a crazy desire for revenge.

The only way for that change to be completed was to face those blasts of Universe Will Storm and overcome his nature!

Ezequiel saw how more and more arcs of lightning emerged from the Universe Will Storm, crashing on Venganza. Regardless of his personal feelings, he knew he could not meddle, or else the Universe Will would also target him.

After some consideration, the Supreme Neo-Demon focused his power on mending his wounds and recovering the lost energy. Whatever happened, the best path forward was to regain as much battle strength as possible.

Venganza did not just allow arcs of lighting to clash on him. He unleashed punches and kicks that seemed capable of driving myriad forces. Each encounter made the light on his eyes grow more powerful.

The battle between Venganza and the Universe Will Storm lasted more than half an hour. There were all sorts of wounds on his body, and it was evident by his expression that he was exhausted.

Despite all that, Venganza had never felt happier. He was just a step away from achieving what his existence had thrived for from the moment he was born.

The Universe Will Storm began to condense as it prepared to fire its final attack. It had immense power and killing intent.

Venganza's smile finally vanished as he felt the power of the incoming attack. It was something that could put an end to his life. If he were to escape now, there was a chance the Universe Will would stop, but it would mean regressing to his previous state.

"Better to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Venganza did not expect an answer from anyone else as he made that question to himself.

"We will win and prove our path is the right one!"

The Depravita roared, and the red eye on his forehead burst with power as he was ready to face it.

"Samsara of Sin and Man!" Venganza placed both hands forward, and every iota of power in him fueled a mighty wheel to face the golden cannon fired by the Universe Will Storm.

It had seven realms, all describing a temptation or sin, and in its center, there was a man that endured the burden of all.

The golden cannon collided against the wheel, unleashing waves of destructive power that made the Second Circle of Hell tremble!

Venganza's muscles bulged as he resisted the golden cannon that sought to erase him and Ira. He showed a bloody smile as the light on his eyes reached its zenith.

"CRACK!"

The golden cannon had almost lost all its potency when a crack appeared in the Seven Sins Samsara Wheel.

Venganza's eyes widened as the crack appeared, and before he could do anything, the wheel and golden cannon ended in an explosion that engulfed him.

"BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!" The explosion echoed through all of Baator and shattered a significant part of Dis.

It blinded Ezequiel, and once he regained sight, he saw the Depravita of Revenge standing in Dis' sky.

Venganza's body was severely wounded, but his soul force burst with power, and it kept growing stronger and stronger. It was hard to describe his cultivation accurately, but he had definitely evolved beyond Rank 8!

"HAHAHAHA!" Venganza laughed with so much strength that the sky trembled. He eventually stopped and turned toward the Supreme Neo-Demon.

"Time for round 2."
