The endless Abyss
A place where chaos and destruction can be classified as the norm of the day
However, at this moment, mere words could not describe the current situation.
A week after the meeting of the princes, blood had begun to flow like a surging river filled with vitality
screams and shouts resounded throughout the sky, from the highest floors to the lowest floors
Be it a minion, duke, or prince, in the midst of war, none could truly be safe
However, even in this situation, twelve huge figures sat at a round table calmly observing the current situation
Characterised by their ever-changing images, and immense aura, just looking at any one of them would be enough to cause the strongest prince to fall into a coma
Yet, the twelve of them who can be said to have stood tall for all eternity had gathered together with serious expressions on their faces
Obviously, something which could trouble such powerful people was currently taking place
*Bang!*
"Lucifer! What's going on with death valley, are you trying to repeat what happened last time"
"No! Even if you are, I'll cut off those damn horns and shove it down your throat!"
Banging the table, a huge five-meter-tall figure completely made of flames made his anger clearly be known
As he spoke, the heat emitted from his flames seemed to increase at any moment,
The temperature even became so hot that the surrounding space began to distort and a few cracks appeared because of it
However, even at that, neither the figure who stood up angrily, nor the eleven others did something
Obviously, something like creating a small space crack was not something that could gain their attention since most of them could do such by blinking
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo for them to act out because of such a thing would be totally impossible.
Now a few seconds had passed, and watching the furious figure who was wrapped in flames continued to rant
The person 'Lucifer' who he accused, slowly spoke
"The first barlog"
"The lord of flames"
"The eternal fire"
"And the Abyss Demon lord of wrath"
With a smooth light coloured skin, a human physique, and long silk hair reaching up to his waist
If it wasn't for his deep red eyes, and purple lines stretching from his bottom eyelids all the way to his chin
Almost no one would be able to see through his identity if he chose to disguise himself as a human.
How with this same human looks and elegance, Lucifer completely disregarded the balrogs words and continued speaking
"Welcome fellow abyss demons, I am Lucifer the abyss demon lord of pride"
"And I accept your thanks for gracing you with my presence"
Hearing him say this, although many demons wanted to refute it
Unfortunately, Lucifer wasn't only known as the abyss demon lord of pride
Rather, thanks to his achievements during his lifetime, Lucifer had earned two titles
'The one closest to transcending' and the strongest abyss demon God
Yes, the strongest!
Although twelve of them were abyss demons Gods representing the pinnacle of the abyss
However, even at that, differences in their strengths existed thus creating the current ranking for the twelve of them
Lucifer The Demon god of pride
Mammon The Demon god of greed
Beelzebub The Demon god of envy
Asmodeus The Demon god of lust
Satan The Demon god of wrath
Abbadon The Demon god of sloth
Belphegor The Demon god of gluttony
Pymon The Demon god of time and travellers
Azazel The Demon god of the west
Azarel The Demon god of east
Oriens The Demon god of north
Samael The Demon god of south
Ranked from top to bottom, the difference between each can be said to be almost negligible
It is even rumoured that during the years before, rankings would change almost every fifty years as their strength constantly fluctuated
However, all that changed when he arrived
Lucifer!
A former angel of the ancestral God of light and one of the first acquired beings to set foot on Elias
He could be said to be completely different from others from as far back as day one
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOr better yet, he was built differently!
Fast forward a few years into the creation of Elias, and Lucifer had unexpectedly launched a rebellion against his Creator
Unfortunately, due to the disparity of their strength, Lucifer was easily beaten back by the ancestral God of light without any chance to fight back
And the same gid of light, out of his unwillingness to destroy his greatest creation
He used his immense strength to tear open a portal to the abyss and throw the dying Lucifer there to rot away for eternity
Unfortunately for him, his plans didn't work right well
Spending hundreds and thousands of years in the abyss, Lucifer had unknowingly transformed himself
From being the first angel to the first fallen angel
And with his immense transformation, lucifers strength had reached an unexpected height
With his continuous slaughter, the once-holy Lucifer became a symbol of evil who brought terror when he passed
However, what happened next, was what made Lucifer who he is today.
And that was none other than becoming the demon god of pride
It can be rumoured that Lucifer had become almost close to a conceptual being
Hence the title 'the one closest to transcending'
Filled with pride, Lucifer had reached the realm of 'whatever I say is true is true'
It wasn't as simple as 'seeing is believing for him'
Rather Lucifer had changed it to 'only when I see it, can others believe it'
'If I say something doesn't exist, then it doesn't exist'
Reaching the level where his powers had begun to reach a conceptual level, among the Demon gods Lucifer had unknowingly gotten the leader position
However, even while knowing his strength, it isn't all abyss demons who fear Lucifer
Especially the top four right under him on the ranking list
After all, they too had begun to reach conceptual-level abilities!
