"It truly seem like you do not know a lot. Especially when you have it. After all, you are the Key." The Devil Boss added.
"The Key?" Lenny asked back, "what key?"
"Your Holy Power, the purest I have ever seen, its so bright that even I, without eyes can see it shine clearly. And Yet, you do not know."
Lenny now understood why the Devil Bosses wanted him. Apparently, it was because of his Holy Power. According to this Devil Boss, his Holy Power was the key to leaving the plane at will.
"When It cos to Holy power, I am definitely not the only one that has it. After all, I have seen the Jin of this world. Creatures born of Angel Blood. Surely, they also have what you seek."
"Pufft..." Lenny heard the sound of spitting. "Those abominations? vile trash born of the stupidity of the fallen? They are absolutely rubbish. The Holy Power they possess is perverted. Just the sll of it DISGUST . Besides, it won’t work. Very terrible purity."
Lenny suddenly had an idea, maybe he could use this as an opportunity to see the possibility of negotiating with this Devil Boss. "I see, but you forget one thing. Holy Power, is bane to your kind. Even If I were to hand you my core, you will not even be able to touch it, much less use it.
Also, it is not of the sa magic affinity as yours, aning absorbing it is also not possible. In essence, it is of a wiser move to seek becoming my subordinate. That way, I might even be more inclined to open the door for you to leave the Plane."
lenny had said those words with a cocky smile on his face, as if he had gotten hold of a major weakness that the Devil Bosses had.
However, what greeted him back was a chuckle, "It is true that I do not have the capabilities to absorb your core, but your at will be tasty and your core...hmmm. Lets just say my big brother will handle that part." On saying this, Lenny suddenly felt another wave in the water.
However, this one was different. And instantly, he lost the feel of his own body.
He could not swim, he could not move. He had instantly, lost sensation of all around him.
Lenny tried as hard as he could, but he could not even move his arms.
"My...my..."
"Nerves?...Oh, and your tendons too. I took them." The Boss devil answered.
Lenny on the other hand, was trying to figure what had just happened. Or in fact, how it had happened. Just then, the devil minions swimming around him, swarm towards him.
Two of them took him by the arms, swimming towards a particular direction.
Lenny in his head, struggled as much as he could, but he could not break free.
Lenny was dragged through the depths by two devil minions, their grip like iron as they pulled him toward an ominous glow ahead. The water grew colder and darker, the pressure more intense with each ter they descended.
Ahead, an eerie throne lood, carved from what looked to be ancient stone and adorned with the grinning skulls of those who had t their fate in this forsaken abyss. The eyes of the skulls seed to follow Lenny as he approached, their hollow sockets a constant reminder of the lifelessness that awaited many who entered this domain.
Seated upon the throne was the Devil Boss, of imposing calm and control. Despite having no eyes, he exuded an unsettling awareness, as if every movent, every ripple in the water, was within his grasp.
His presence was both chilling and commanding, an assertion of his dominion over all that transpired in his realm. The Devil Boss’s deanor was one of serene omnipotence, his posture relaxed, a faint smirk playing on his lips as he regarded Lenny with a knowing air.
"You are wondering when, and how right?" The Devil Boss asked.
Lenny’s eyes remained on this fat fishy looking Devil.
The Boss Devil Chuckled. "This Realm. My semi-Arcane domain. its special! You see the fundantal law in this world is... Speech. As long as one can hold a conversation for up to five minutes, I can easily take from them what I desire."
Lenny understood what he ant. This was why this place, although under the water was so habitable. It did not have the usual constraints of actual water. Secondly, the Devil Boss had made him talk as much as he did so that the Law of the world would take effect.
The Devil Boss chuckled as its eyes scanned Lenny, looking at him like he was piece of at that should be gobbled up.
The Devil boss signaled to one of the Devil Minions that had brought Lenny. "Give a hand, all that talking has made quite hungry."
Instantly, the Devil Grabbed Lenny’s arm, Digging its claws into his body. In an aggressive display of raw unbridled strength, it pulled.
Lenny was shocked at its strength. after all, he was a great Demon existence. It ant that these devils were at least Great Devil strength.
*Prraaaatttthhhh!*
His left arm was blood out of its shoulder socket.
Because his nerves had been taken, lenny did not feel the pain, but the thought of what had happened still made him scream.
The devil minion chuckled a little as it swarm towards the Devil Boss with the arm. Lenny’s blood stained the water red and so of the devils around, opened their mouths to take so of it in.
The Devil Boss collected the arm, licking its lips, it brought the arm to its mouth.
Its mouth opened wide like the entrance of a bottomless pit and in one gulp, it threw Lenny’s arm.
A few crunching, bone breaking sounds could be heard as it swallowed deeply. It turned to Lenny, "Delicious, absolutely delicious. If I were you, I would eat myself daily." he gave a smirk.
However, it quickly noticed sothing that just did not seem right.
Apart from the first ti that Lenny scread in horror of his arm being pulled out, he did not seem to be fazed by what was happening. Devils were very sick creatures. one of the joys of the al was to look into Lenny’s eyes, see the fear as he enjoyed his flesh. But this was not so.
In fact, Lenny seed a little too calm.
lenny’s head remained calm, and the Devil Boss signaled to one of the Devil minions to lift it.
And then the Devil Boss saw lenny’s smirk.
"what is so funny, or are you already broken?" The Devil boss asked.
Lenny replied, "Have you ever heard of Sushi?"
The Devil Boss raised a brow. However, Lenny had no plans of letting him answer.
"Its an incredibly delicious dish. I have had quite the variety of it, but this will be the first ti, I taste devil flavor."
On saying this, Lenny’s eye glowed a sharp red as a shadow rune ford within it. "Die for !"
The devil boss suddenly felt uncomfortable as its big belly swelled up abnormally.
*BOOM!*
A Massive Explosion That rippled in the underwater expanse, exploding outward occurred.
The water, every single drop suddenly disappeared. And the familiar look of a dungeon resud. The Devil minions in the dungeon had all been instantly slaugtered by the explosion.
the Semi-Arcane domain had been destroyed.
Lenny pushed the big body of the Devil minion he had used to defend against the blast. on its back was a rune he had drawn in a heist to shield himself from the blast.
Slowly, Lenny stood to his feet. He grunted harshly as he staggard towards the Devil Boss that was now left with only half of a torso.
Lenny felt incredible pain. With the destruction of the Semi-Arcane domain, his nerves and tendons had returned. He was in a world of pain, but it was nothing compared to what the devil Boss was feeling at the mont.
It was a mixture of confusion and pain.
"How? .... How did you do it?" The devil Boss could not help but ask through his continuous spitting and coughing of blood. How did you...?"
Lenny gave a side smile as he fell on his knees over the Devil boss that was obviously at the end of its life.
"Don’t worry, i will tell you...but it will be over your the al that is YOUR flesh!" Lenny brought his face close as he dug his teeth into the side of the Devil’s neck.
Gnawing and crushing sounds could be heard as lenny enjoyed his al. "hmmm... I was right, Devil Sushi is not bad..." Lenny remarked.
As promised, Lenny explained how he did it as he fed off the Devil.
With the first core Lenny had absorbed, Lenny had gotten knowledge about this gluttonous Devil.
He knew that this one was more interested in feeding on him than all the others. And as such, he presented himself as both the al, but also the Trap....
