After Julia uses the fallen angel sword to open Hajar Aswad's spatial gate once again, Roy and Julia return to the main world.
Due to the different speed of time flow, although Roy and Julia had stayed in Hajar Aswad for several hours, only an hour had passed in the main world.
They flew out from the crater of the volcano and flew into the air. When they returned, Julia said to Roy, “What should we do about the mission that Mother Lilith gave us ..?”
Lilith had asked Roy to go to the Charcoal Council to find the so-called Red Sea Egg, but in reality, she had said this to Roy and Julia and handed over her mission to them. Although Roy and Julia did not show anything unusual, Lilith, as a succubus, could easily smell a mixed smell on them, so naturally, she understood their relationship.
Hearing Julia's question, Roy smiled helplessly. After becoming a high-level demon, even though it was a good thing to increase their strength, it seemed that this demon king and demon lord were starting to like assigning missions to high-level demons.
Of course, from another point of view, this is also proof that Roy's strength has entered the eyes of the big players. In the human world, this was a tribute from his superior. But the problem is that great people don't seem to like to consider whether Roy has the ability to complete this mission when they assign it.
Hollow's ruler was like this before, and so is Lilith now. They seemed to measure the difficulty of the mission based on their own strength. But as a result, when it came to Roy, this mission was clearly beyond his reach.
For example, knowledge that some teachers consider very simple, but when they teach students and find that students cannot learn it, they will scold students. Why are you so stupid? Don't you know how to solve such a simple question?
Now, Roy is facing a problem like this. Lord of the Hollows wanted him to deal with Demon Lord Abraxis, and now, Lilith wanted Roy to go to the Charred Council to steal some Red Sea Eggs. These things are very hard to achieve, okay?
Roy can still fool the Hollow Sovereign, this former demon council member, but Lilith is troublesome.
As Julia recalled Samael's sealed situation, Lilith's expression did not change, and she did not look surprised. This means Roy's guess is correct. Lilith may be one of the masterminds, and she and Samael plan a massive chess game together. At first, it might be the Horseman of the Apocalypse who had entered the game and become a pawn. But after Lilith gave Roy a mission, it meant he had become one of the pawns on the board.
However, this time was different from when he was in the world of the Hero of Strength and Magic. Without the restraints of the demon contract, Roy is not enslaved by Lilith, and it doesn't matter if she uses him as a pawn. After all, Lilith would reward him. This can be considered a transaction. The key is how Roy should plan for profit in this process.
Roy could not guess what Lilith wanted to use it for, and it was also possible that Lilith just gave him this mission casually. It was naturally better for Roy to finish, but even if he failed, it was no problem for Lilith. But there was no doubt that he would divert some of his attention to his actions. Roy could only think of a way to do this to the best of his ability, and at least he should not delay for too long.
After thinking about it, Roy said to Julia, “When Lilith first started, she always talked about Charcoal Council. He even told us that the Charcoal Council would likely be corrupted by the Damages of this world, just like an ancient god that was corrupted by the power of the Void. Logically speaking, saying this to two high-level demons was useless. Even if it's completely broken, it's not something we can stop. So, what's the point of saying this? ”
“Tell others? The Horsemen of the Apocalypse? Indeed, we know Fury. And since we helped him deal with the Seven Deadly Sins, we should have a certain level of credibility in his eyes! ” Roy nods in agreement with Julia's words. “Chared Council has been broken. If Lilith had personally told the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, they would definitely not have believed her. The name Mad Queen Lilith had its own impression in the eyes of the world. If a demon like him said it, others would doubt it as soon as they heard it.. ”“ Not only Anger but also Death! ” Says Julia. “You know, Death only goes to Hajar Aswad in front of us. Lilith definitely did not say this to death. Otherwise, even if Death did not believe him, he might have returned to the Charred Council to verify it.. “
Roy nodded. “Now after you mention it, I might have to add two other Doomsday Horsemen. Don't forget that War is still imprisoned by the Charred Council at the moment, and he wants us to go to the Charred Council Space. As for the last Horsemen, Strife, though we don't know where he is now, he said, Lilith might think that we might as well meet her. ”.
“Also, have you forgotten about the Black Hammer Ulthane we met before? The maker may also be a potential listener.. ” Julia said.
The two added one after another and slowly guessed Lilith's intent. Disseminating the statement on the corruption of the Charred Council would definitely severely damage the prestige and pressure it could exert. This further confirms Roy's conjecture that Samael and Lilith's ultimate goal is targeting the Charcoal Council.
Originally, Heaven was the first to start this Final War, but now that the war was going on, Roy felt that Heaven was a true tragedy. It actually fell into a chess game set by two demon kings. In terms of gimmicks and intrigue, the devil is indeed superior …
“However, let's catch the last Seven Deadly Sins first!” Said Roy. “As for Lilith's mission, it's too risky. We have to plan carefully before we act. ”
While flying, Julia hesitated a bit when she asked, “Because Lilith's mother promised to tell you about the nephilim, is it necessary to make a deal with Fury?”
“Of course, it is necessary!” Roy said seriously. “Because if it is not possible, I will give up on going to the Charcoal Board. And so, the deal with Fury will be the only way I can get a nephilim secret. Even if he was only a second-generation nephilim, and the information I could obtain from him might be very limited, it would not make me return empty-handed. ”
“I understand!” Julia nodded. “However, from the information revealed by Mother Lilith, that Red Sea Egg might be something very important. Let's not talk about whether we can get it or not, but even if we can get it, maybe we should return it to Mother Lilith. Without Red Sea Eggs, how would you experiment? Moreover, even if you can use the Red Sea Egg, how will you integrate the power of the Nephilim into yourself? Don't forget. It is said that Mother Lilith created the nephilim from a mixture of angelic and demonic dust. You can't possibly let yourself die once before joining, right? “
“I know what your doubts are. Lilith's experiment created the nephilim instead of the devil. You worry after I use this experiment on me, I will be another ‘orang’! ” Roy turned to look at Julia and smiled. “Do not worry. I already have a preliminary plan for this. Even without the Red Sea Eggs, I can still experiment! “
Roy's not stupid. Of course, he could not destroy his body to conduct this experiment. In fact, since he was a fraud with the system, he had never thought of using Lilith's Red Sea Egg when he first heard of it. To him, he trusted the Father System more.
In fact, at first, Roy wanted to stay on track and go to the end. The fact that his ice demon bloodline could grow to a high level demon showed that he had a rather strong bloodline, and his Dark Cold magic power was also a unique variant magic power. It could be said that if he were to dig deeper into the ice power to its limit, he would have a place in the Abyss. But Roy now realizes that it is very difficult to reach the top with one power, and it is often very easy to be targeted.
For example, the Vulgrim demon rift. Although he was not good at fighting, he was still a high-level demon. If he really went against Roy, it was hard to tell who would win, unless Roy's ice strength was strong enough that it could freeze Vulgrim in 0. 1 second without giving him time to use his magic power. Otherwise, if Vulgrim were to hide in the Purgatory Room, Roy would be instantly confused. It's impossible for him to freeze space as well, isn't it? How much ice power does he need?
There is also a magic world. Roy could create a piece of equipment that resisted elemental damage, but would his enemy not understand that? What if he faced an enemy with ice resistance or freezing immunity in the future?
Now, after becoming a high-level demon, his viscous magic power grew more slowly. In this case, making himself more flexible would be beneficial for him to deal with different battle situations in the future. This was why Roy tirelessly searched for the secrets of the nephilim because only the nephilim, who had combined the lineages of angels and demons, could understand how to use all the forces of the elements simultaneously.
It could be said that it was actually good for Roy to come to the world of Darksiders because if he wanted to meet a race like the nephilim in the future, he would have to go to the world of Diablo… And Roy doesn't know where the entrance to that world is…
