"So, explain to me your reason? You must have a big reason to dare to enter this city? Even breaking a promise you made with Parthe?" Aliyah took off her arms for Oana, holding onto her shoulders and looking deeply into Oana's eyes.
At least the hug became a welcome message to Oana after a long time not meeting with Aliyah as well as to comfort Oana who was still sad over the death of Parthe, who was still sad, he was also the closest person to her since she was a child.
"Curl.." Oana who was slightly carried away by the feeling of wiping away her tears. "I'm here to see you." It was clear to answer Aliyah's question.
"What do you need? Don't tell me you dared to break your promise because you just wanted to say that Parthe has died to me!? If it's true, then it's completely unnecessary." Aliyah.
"No.. I'm looking for someone and I don't know where else to go but with your help." Oana.
Aliyah walked away, she headed towards her desk while staring at some scribbles of paper she had made before. "Heehhhhhhhh.. Oana, you shouldn't have to get into this place. How important is that guy you're looking for until you break your promise to Parthe?" Aliyah said as she tidied up some scribbled papers she held on her desk.
"Very important.. Because finding this person was also the last request that Madame Parthe had asked me.. And I have to grant her last wish no matter what." Clearly Oana while looking down.
Aliyah who had glanced and noticed some papers on her desk turned back to Oana. "alright.. That's an important thing. Then why did you decide to meet me? What's with this guy you're looking for? Why is it so hard for you to find him. I thought, a talented magician like you wouldn't be that hard to find someone."
"Yes.. If that person is still alive. The problem is that the man died a year ago." Oana.
"Huh!? Died, so you're saying the man you're looking for is dead. Who is that guy?" The curious Aliyah approached towards Oana.
"One of the holy knights.. Ignis." Oana.
"Ah.. I heard the rumor, Holy knight Ignis.. I think everyone knows that the holy knight Ignis has long since died under the rubble. It's weird that Parthe told you to look for her." Said Aliyah frowning while glancing towards the right.
Aliyah thought, she held her chin with her right hand. "Yes, there's one more thing.. I also heard that knight ignis was involved in the case before.. Bawdy knights.. Aren't you? Haha. I think I want to meet him." Said Aliyah while laughing at the thing she said herself.
"Yes.. Thas right. It's not just a rumor, the guy named Richard is perverted. Even his vile deeds were self-dismantled by other holy knights." Said Oana with a flat face. "But still, I have to meet him.. Please help me Miss Aliyah!" Oana held onto Aliyah's arm who was currently searching for a book on the bookshelves in her study.
"alright.. With what can I help you?" Ask Aliyah who is confused.
"I want to borrow the magic item you have.. Magic balls.." Oana Strictly.
"Ahhhh! Alright but maybe we have a little problem" Aliyah looked at Oana with a smile.
The confused Oana just fell silent with Aliyah's facial expression. "It was in the storage shed, but.. Hehe, you will need some time to find it since there are thousands of Items piling up in that room. Youknew.. I love creating Magic Items here.. Hehe." Clearly Aliyah while smiling wryly.
"No papa, I'll look for him, madam. I think that magic item will be very useful to find the knight Ignis. Even if only the body I can find, then it's okay. That's enough for me to fulfill Miss Parthe's last request." Oana Strictly.
Aliyah with her mole body looked at Oana. "Hey, stop calling me madam, look.. I look even sexier than you.. Haha." Oana who heard the curse could only smile wryly while scratching her head.
"All right, come with me to the next room. I kept a lot of magic items in the room. But remember, no one can know where you are in this place but me." Firmly Aliyah, then walked towards the door while reminding Oana to step slowly and not make a rowdy.
The two of them then walked out of Aliyah's study, currently the atmosphere of the hall connecting the several rooms seemed quiet. Understand it because the day is still dark even though it has not left its highest point but has not seen the sunlight that wants to rise from the east.
The two of them walked through several rooms, while walking behind Aliyah. Oana thought of something and spontaneously said. "Mrs.. Did you make me faint just a moment ago?"
"Yeah.." Aliyah.
"Mrs.. Who're they?" Ask Oana once again who looks curious.
"They?" Aliyah seemed to not understand the question.
"They, the two people wearing magic knight robes and attacked me. They say, that's an order from the magic chancellor?" Oana becomes increasingly curious, because all this time she does not understand the past and why she can be forbidden to come back to the city of Lockdown even though according to the story of the Parthe, the, Oana set foot in this town when she was a child.
"I don't know, for sure I only remember when Parthe took you away from this place and made you promise not to set foot in this town again." Aliyah was clear and concise.
"I still do not understand, even though in this place there is the best magic school. Why did he even forbid me to come here!?" Oana muttered to herself.
"Either.. Maybe he doesn't want to be away from you, Oana.. And he wants to pass down his magic knowledge to you." Reply Aliyah while glancing at Oana. That short answer also made Oana silent and slightly dispelled her curiosity.
After walking and passing through several rooms, they finally arrived at one door. Behind the door is stored many magic items that have been developed by Aliyah and her team during her time as one of the teachers and researchers of magic at the Hogward school of magic.
"This is the place!" Said Aliyah while holding the doorknob. When he opened the doorknob, Aliyah was surprised because she found another stranger in the room.
Meanwhile, it's still in town.
A secret room not far from the magic chancellor's residence.
"It seems like it's time we end it." The Chancellor of magic. "Sekromentus..!" The magic chancellor turned to look at his loyal aide who was standing right behind him. An old man with a beard and white mustache who was quite sturdy and had great strength. The figure whom the holy knights thought to be the Chancellor of magic.
"Ready orders!" The reply.
While the others turned to look towards the right, just where Sakromentus was walking towards the front of the girl who was tied to a pole with her body only covered in a thin cloth. The girl was covered in wounds, her skin was dry and wrinkled, her blank eyes seemed to be a sign that she wanted to die soon rather than be in these misleading shackles. I don't know how long he's been tied up like a helpless slave who's been the victim of an abomination.
When Sakromentus was right in front of the shabby girl who was tied up. He held the girl's forehead while chanting a magic spell. At that very moment the girl then opened her eyes wide and began to rebel because of the pain that she could not bear. She screamed as if death had called her, the girl screamed but she did not shed her tears. Not because it held back the crying, but because her tears were already dry and nothing else could be removed except blood.
"After the woman died.. I'm reminding her that her replacement will soon be down to this place tomorrow!" Firmly Chancellor of magic. "Immediately secure the next subject, however we still need sacrifices for the well-being of this city." The magic chancellor saw the girl's scream in front of him.
Shortly after, a magic emblem was created from the floor. The magic line was in a circle with the screaming girl who became the axis, the light was getting brighter and at the same time the girl even more screaming in pain. He asked for help, not to stop the spell uttered by Sakromentus, but he shouted and asked to be killed immediately.
While the bloody ritual was taking place, the sound of shouting and waves of extremely Fierce fighting were also taking place outside the city, he said, things that cannot be felt by those who are currently still asleep comfortably and safely in the city.
The fight is still going on, to this day. Lockdown City still maintained its reputation as a city with a powerful defense system by not allowing a single monster or demon to successfully break through their defenses.
What's more, there have been no casualties on the part of the magic knights who survived because the protective dome protecting the city worked as it should. They were safe while continuing to attack from within using long-range magic towards the monsters and demons that had kept coming to this day.
In the southern city of Lockdown. A place that has been destroyed by the great fight that is happening.
"Hey, look at that..!" Rebecca pointed forward, right in the direction of the smoldering flames that were flying towards Bellzebub.
The holy knights saw a fiercely burning alien figure gliding like a meteor. "That guy!?" Said Pege who knew him.
Rumbling sounds rang out filling the sky as a result of the wind friction with the flames from Richard's body coming at the speed of sound towards Bellzebub.
From afar, the group that had survived the massacre saw a fairly bright light from the sky in the south direction. "Huh! What'sthat?" Asked the Dwarf Grandfather who saw the flaming scene. Nora who was also in the group turned around, she saw a blazing fire while holding her hands on her chest as if praying.
Then at the scene of the crime..
A moment later, a huge explosion occurred above the sky. The light waves caused by the explosion spread widely to cause some monsters to fly and the demons that filled the sky to burn out, the explosion also attracted the attention of the magic knights who were struggling at the south gate.
The explosion occurred as a result of a meeting between fire and also a large enough black lightning struck suddenly. The sound from the black lightning sounded loud, different from the rumbling sound of the sky in general.
Seeing the burst of lightning and the aura that appeared suddenly, Smits frowned and smiled. "Hehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. The revever!" His speech witnessed the collision of two great empires that occurred in the sky.
"Chi.. Why are you in this place? The revever?" Said Bellzebub who was very upset over the appearance of Rever Block the sin of anger.
Is correct..
The black lightning that appears suddenly is a sign of the power of the sin of anger.
The Rever who spread his wings said nothing, currently his gaze only looked downwards. The place where Richard fell due to the impact of a large lightning that resisted and defeated the fire attack.
Richard was pushed far enough away, he fell and hit the ground so hard that it created a big enough hole underneath.
Now this semi-permanent residential area has been flattened with land, which looks only a very wide expanse of land. The surrounding buildings and trees were already uprooted and flattened to the ground. It was the result of a fight that had occurred since a few hours ago.
To this day..
It seemed like the fight had yet to reach its peak, what else after another powerful demon had resurfaced itself.
"Chi... Oi Rever, who told you to come to this place huh?" Bellzebub grumbled while Rever calmly continued to look towards Richard who had fallen far below him.
On the other hand, the holy knights trembled a little when they found out that the demons who had defeated them 2 times had already come out. The demon looked different, there were a few scars and most striking one of the demon's arms had been severed as a result of a big fight.
"Oio.. Although it had not met for a long time but that demonic aura still bothered me!" Smits spoke spontaneously as he sensed the overwhelming aura of the Rever.
"About who managed to make such a powerful Devil lose his arm! Hm.. I wish I could meet that guy." Rebecca said, squinting her eyes while raising her hand to her forehead, she misfocused and continued to look at the burns on Rever's body.
Rever Block, after a fierce fight that occurred some time ago again looks fitter and stronger. The aura that came out of his body became a sign that at this moment he no longer underestimated the Richard that he had kicked with full force at the beginning of his appearance.
In fact, the upper level demons could have regrowed their injured or severed body parts but because the flames released by Richard were different from ordinary flames, that makes the Rever body part unable to regenerate completely.
The flame that burned Rever's body a few days ago was the fire that Richard had obtained from the results of surviving for a year inside a labyrinth filled with powerful monsters. The fire grew hotter as Richard's fight after battle progressed to the peak of his power development when he gained a power equal to his empire. He inherited the power of one of the pillars of Hell named Ifrit, which made Richard's fire empire stronger without him noticing.
And that was also what made him rise unharmed at this moment, despite having obtained a fatal strike from the sizable black lightning that belonged to the Rever Block the sin of anger.
"Oi, step aside that guy is my dinner!" Bellzebub holds Rever's shoulder.
All of a sudden.. Rever's face out. It was a sign that he was starting to get angry and his empire was again increasing drastically.
"Reeeeddddddddd...." Shouted Rever loudly from above as he watched Richard rise.
Hearing that, Richard lifted his face and looked at Rever with glowing red eyes. The fire that had been extinguished in his body again lit up slowly, indicating that he was gathering the empire because he felt the extraordinary killing air of the Rever. Slowly he got up and started to straighten his body while staring at Rever who was above the sky.
Meanwhile, the other holy knights could only gawk when they saw the clash of aura from the front. The clash of auras was from Rever as well as a stranger they were unfamiliar with. At least for now, they could no longer recognize Richard whose appearance had changed. Not only the appearance, but also the aura of the empire they had known from Richard had been different.
"That guy!? Said Pege stunned.
"God!" Ivy looked at Richard from afar, feeling that the person who was currently issuing the great empire was no stranger. Ivy felt that she knew the person who was currently staring at Rever fearlessly
"Reeeddd... We meet again huh!?" Rever said loudly.
From another direction. "Red!?" Ivy murmured who heard Rever's words.
Richard did not respond, he remained standing without lowering his level of vigilance against the powerful enemy currently hovering above him.
"Haha... Look what you did to me Reddd, I really underestimated you back then." Rever continued, still speaking loudly. His voice echoed amidst the magic booms that occurred due to the fight of the magic knights and demon troops.
"Chi.. You're interrupting my dinner!"
"SILENCE!!!!" Rever on Bellzebub. "I'm here on the orders of the Demon King, I'm here to stop your stupid behavior.." He told Bellzebub.
"Chi.." Bellzebub was quite upset by what Rever said to him.
In general, the power between the demons of great sin is not much different. Bellzebub couldn't resist what Rever said not because Rever was stronger or not because Rever was his superior. It was just that to the demons, the orders from their king were absolute. Rever's words about the order of the demon king were enough to make Bellzebub unable to resist what Rever was doing at this time.
"Stay with the original plan of Bellzebub.. Immediately contact your subordinates who are currently already inside Lockdown city. Remember the demon lord is eager for your success..." Resolute Rever. Although the one he spoke to was Bellzebub but his eyes never escaped the figure that had made him dying a few days ago. The figure also still continued to stare at him, those flaming eyes continued to stare unblinkingly at him.
"Chi... Without you reminding me I will still give victory to my king. Tonight, tonight's chaos is just an appetizer for my hungry subordinates.. The real victory will be won tomorrow, when the sun begins to set. Chichichichichis.. Tomorrow is the ultimate meal, just as Smellow manages to shut down Lockdown's city's defense system from the inside.. Chichichichichi" Bellzebub said with great confidence.
