A Demon's Journey

The Demon King Black Hurricane's face appeared to be similar to a Vulture. He had large purple wings as he slowly appeared out of the summoning circle.

There was an emotionless expression with a hint of annoyance present on his face. He stared at his human counterpart to ask him about this situation.

The Black Hurricane in the 4th Prince's body immediately narrated the entire situation to his true body.

The Demon King immediately focused on Azaroth. With a cold harumph, he launched several invisible blades at Azaroth.

Those were Spatial Blades, possessing the power of Spatial Element. Even a 6 Star Warrior would be cautious of this attack.

Azaroth remained calm as he saw those Spatial Blades attack him. Dodging these blades was impossible, so he remained at his position.

When they entered within 50 meters area around him, the Spatial Blades suddenly disintegrated.

The Demon King frowned as he couldn't understand why his Spatial Blades dispersed like that. He spoke with a superior tone, "You should have run away while you had the chance."

"Spatial Barrier!"

Suddenly, Spatial Energy leaked out of the Demon King's body, and it expanded up to 10 miles around him. This was a dome-like barrier that prevented warriors from entering this space.

Even the energy fluctuations inside it couldn't be sensed from outside this Spatial Barrier.

In certain terms, this was another dimension. Though a dimension that existed in the main world.

'During the summoning, much of his Demonic Ardor was leaked. Many warriors have been alerted, and the humans are probably sending their own experts to this area. This guy wants to prevent the humans from figuring out his exact location and leave after dealing with me.'

"Perhaps. But if I did run away, I wouldn't have found out about this trump card of yours. I never thought that you only used a bit of your spirit to take over the 4th Prince's body. Even your subordinates aren't aware of this fact," Azaroth spoke with a smirk.

The Demon King didn't seem scared as he responded with a snort, "So what if you know of it? You cannot leave now."

"Demonic Waves!" The Demon King unleashed a wide-ranged demonic beam attack at Azaroth.

"Now, that's dangerous," Azaroth commented as he saw the huge amount of Demonic Ardor in that attack.

It was easy to deal with the Spatial Attacks since Azaroth had created a Spatial Shield ahead of him that dispersed those Spatial Blades.

The Demonic Waves wouldn't be so easily dispelled.

"Tyrannical Asura Devil God Bloodline Activate, Suppression," Azaroth whispered as pure killing intent was released from his body.

Azaroth knew he couldn't fight against a 6 Star Warrior. He would lose without a doubt. However, that was the case if the opponent wasn't a demon. If the opponent was a demon, his Demon God Bloodline could greatly suppress his opponent's power.

An oppressive demonic aura was released from Azaroth's body that overwhelmed the Demonic Ardor in his surroundings.

The Demonic Ardor was so greatly overwhelmed that the Demon King who had just appeared felt like the laws around him had changed. The laws had somehow gotten weaker.

Azaroth released Hell Flames at the incoming Demonic Waves attack and burned it. Since it was a Demonic Attack, his Bloodline had suppressed it to the point that it wouldn't affect him.

Both forms of Black Hurricane continued to stare at Azaroth with shock visible in their eyes.

The Demon King form felt as if the suppression over his body was gradually increasing. Suddenly, the strength in his knees collapsed as he kneeled in front of Azaroth.

The same thing occurred to the human form of the Black Hurricane. However, he could still try to resist the Bloodline Pressure from Azaroth since he was currently a pure human, unlike his true form.

"I have a couple of questions for you. Why did you take over the 4th Prince's Body here? What is your plan in this kingdom?" Azaroth asked with a serious look.

The Demon King responded with a question of his own, "…Who are you? I fail to recognize your noble existence. The bloodline you possess must be highly regarded in Purgatory!"

The Demon King merely wanted to figure out Azaroth's identity through his bloodline.

"It's nothing worth mentioning. Just remember that it belongs to a being far stronger than you," Azaroth responded.

'E-Even a Demon Emperor's Bloodline can't overpower me to such extent. That means… This is the Bloodline of a Demon G-God?!'

When that realization dawned upon the Demon King, he immediately showed a respectful look.

Since this opponent possessed the Bloodline of a Demon God, the Black Hurricane's true body had no chance of resisting.

"Now… Answer my question!" Azaroth stated with his voice releasing killing intent.

"…I took over the body of this human because he possesses a Royal Bloodline of these humans," The Demon King began to talk.

"A Royal Bloodline is useful for you? How so? From what I saw, it doesn't appear to be anything too exceptional." Azaroth spoke.

"The Bloodline itself is naturally nothing impressive. However, a Royal Bloodline of these humans possesses Fate Energy that protects them from life-threatening situations. They also possess the power to steal energy from nature and combine it with their Ardor," The Demon King gave his primary reason for taking over the fourth prince's body.

"I see…" Azaroth whispered while deeply thinking about what he had just heard.

'Fate Energy? That's the first time I heard of this kind of energy. Even this thing exists, huh… Moreover, this Fate Energy appears to be much more impressive than even my powers as a Demon God, or else I could have seen through it using my Mystic Eyes of Perception.'

"What is your ultimate goal?" Azaroth asked the Demon King with a commanding tone.

"…My goal has been to take over the throne of this Glerian Kingdom. I would be able to receive a massive boost in my fate energy. Moreover, after becoming the king, I would receive the Fate Dragon of this Kingdom as well. After combining with it, I can surely reach the Demon Emperor Rank. This was what I had been planning."

The Demon King revealed his true plan.

'A Fate Dragon? What sort of existence is that? I can't ask much about Fate Energy from this Demon King, or else he will figure out that I don't know anything about it. He might burn his life-essence and try to attack me. The Bloodline Pressure won't be able to deal with such an attack.'

A Bloodline Pressure would weaken an opponent's strength by oppressing his energy. However, a full-powered attack from a Demon King was bound to be stronger than what his Bloodline Ability could handle. Even after being suppressed, the attack would possess enough power to kill him.

'I need to make him believe that the entire situation had been under my control.'

Azaroth then smirked and responded to the Demon King, "Very well, you can continue to act how you want. It seems that you won't get in my way. That is a good thing for you."

"You can return now. I am sure you can't stay here for long, or else the 6 Star Warriors of the Glerian Kingdom will appear and attack you."

The Demon King was thankful that Azaroth didn't intend to kill him. In reality, Azaroth saw no benefit in slaying this Demon King.

Now that Azaroth knew about this Demon King's motive, he knew that this guy would sooner or later be at goods with other members of Royalty or even the King himself.

'I need a detailed plan to control the situation.'

Currently, Azaroth was flying in Zena's direction.

The Demon King was talking to his human counterpart, "Never ever provoke this guy. But still, create a countermeasure for him as well. Use those 'brothers' of yours. Only the combined fate energy can protect you from this guy."

"I was planning the same. You should clear the Demonic Energy from my spirit now," Black Hurricane told his Demon King counterpart.

Just a second later, the Demon King's spiritual aura swept over his human counterpart and then absorbed all the demonic residual particles.

Once all traces of the demonic particles vanished from his human counterpart's spirit, the Demon King immediately entered the Spatial Array through which he had arrived.

The Demon King gave him one last instruction just as he was about to disappear, "Don't call out for me for the next 3 months."

"I know."
