Happy Reading~
===========
It's true. I knew it was impossible for the demon inside not to be furious after hearing insult it.
As expected, I was relentlessly forced to listen to its rambling.
If not for that, I would never have decided to cover my ears.
Although, what I did had no effect at all.
On the contrary, I knew the demon within was speaking directly to my subconscious world.
Perhaps that's why it was able to keep scolding without end.
Of course, I also knew its hidden motive—this demon wanted to make the strongest.
But so what? Could I really trust the words of the demon inside ?
Unfortunately, I also knew I couldn't just do whatever I wanted.
Suddenly, I felt my body being pulled by so unknown force.
The mont I opened my eyes, I realized I had been transported to the outside world.
"Are you done? This is the limit from the commander. He said he wants you to return to the residence imdiately."
"I know. Don't worry. I had no intention of staying in that room any longer. Goodbye."
Without wasting ti, I walked out of the room without a second thought.
If I had to describe this place, I knew it was where people ca to train their power.
If I recall correctly, this place was called the Spatial Tower.
Surely, it was a place where others could shorten their training ti.
Whatever the case, I now knew I didn't have much ti left.
If I didn't prepare quickly, I feared Lilith's wedding would proceed.
In just seconds, my clothes looked completely untouched, as if nothing had happened.
Even my hair looked just like it had when I first entered the spatial chamber.
"All right... Lilith, please wait for . Let your prince co and rescue you."
Fyush!
In an instant, I spread my wings and soared into the sky.
As I flew, I could feel several eyes watching .
Fortunately, none of them seed intent on attacking .
Judging from their expressions, I assud they knew who I was.
"Look, Mama! It's the commander's son! What's he doing up there?"
"Shhh~. Don't speak so loudly. Didn't you see him glance at you?"
"I'm sorry…"
If you're wondering where I was going, I intended to head straight for the imperial capital.
If it weren't for my father's intel, I would've never known when Lilith and Asmodeus planned to marry.
I have to hurry! This isn't enough. Demon energy, grant your strength!
In a fraction of a second, my flight speed increased several tis over.
To an average demon's eyes, I was already out of sight.
Bham!
Suddenly, I heard a loud explosion from kiloters away.
"That sound… Did sothing happen at the imperial palace? No. This is really bad…"
As I approached within a few hundred ters of the empire, I could feel a terrifying pressure.
I didn't know why, but I felt this pressure was far worse than that of an Emperor Stage being.
When I focused, I couldn't hide my shock.
Could I have entered the demon imperial capital?
If so, I was grateful—grateful to have reached the heart of demon territory.
And indeed, what I had suspected turned out to be true.
Upon entering the demon capital, I noticed there were no guards stopping .
Deep down, I felt grateful seeing the guards collapsed where they stood.
If not for that, I wasn't sure I could've breached the capital.
For a mont, my gaze was drawn to the clouds above .
"Who are they? And what's with this pressure? Damn! I got distracted again! I better use this chance to get inside the palace."
Indeed, I hadn't expected to get distracted by a battle in the sky.
If not for them, I wouldn't have slowed down.
But now? I was glad they were fighting each other.
This gave a much better chance to rescue Lilith.
Within seconds, a supersonic blast echoed through the imperial banquet hall.
Boom!
And then, I revealed myself to everyone inside the palace.
"Good afternoon~. I'm here to pick up my beloved. I hope none of you plan to stand in my way."
At first, I didn't believe I'd be able to force my way into the imperial palace.
But seeing the chaos, I figured there was no harm in revealing myself.
All right... I had finally broken into the banquet hall.
Now... Lilith, I know you're in there with that damned bastard.
"Eh? S-Sieg!? I told you to leave! Why didn't you listen to ?!"
Even Lilith hadn't expected to co and try to save her.
For so reason, a faint warmth welled up within her.
She didn't know why, but she felt I could never truly abandon her.
Perhaps because of that, a part of her was happy to see co to her rescue.
Unfortunately, her joy didn't last long.
As the daughter of the Demon Emperor, she knew I could never take her away so easily.
"I'm sorry. I just don't want to see you suffer. I don't know if this is really my choice… But one thing is certain: you are one of the most precious people in my life. That's why I can't leave you alone."
"No… You can't… What if my father cos back? Please, go. This isn't a place where you can do as you please!"
"Ha ha ha. You underestimate . Do I need to show you? Isn't that right, Asmodeus? I want a rematch."
This damn kid…
How did he get so strong?
Judging by his power, I'd say he was no different from a high-ranked Noble Demon.
"Arrogant fool! You're just a Noble Demon! You think you can defeat ?! Don't make laugh!"
Slash!
In a split second, a long gash appeared on Asmodeus's side.
At last, his expression turned completely serious.
"A Noble Demon… But you're more like a Greater Demon. Impressive. Good! I want to see what you can really do."
Step— Step— Step—
As Asmodeus and I stepped into the center of the banquet hall, I showed no emotion.
Unexpectedly, I once again recalled the demon's words within .
"Rember, this is your final chance. If you fail, I don't know whether you'll survive or not. Good luck."
Don't worry… I would never waste the technique you gave .
Boom!
Within seconds, waves of shock blasted through the banquet hall.
Even the guests showed disbelief on their faces.
"Huh? Who is this guy? How can he cause such a phenonon? It's impossible…"
Clang!
Still, I couldn't block Asmodeus's sword strikes for long.
That's why I quickly switched to a different combat technique.
For now, I was determined to use my magic.
Within just a few breaths, I could sense Asmodeus's movents.
From what I could tell, his aim was to take off my head.
Magical creation… It's not enough. I can feel my body taking damage. I can't let this continue.
I had to admit, Asmodeus's attacks were beyond what I could endure.
If I hadn't cloaked myself in demonic energy, I wouldn't have remained so calm.
When my attention shifted, I felt several cuts on my arms.
Eventually, I had no choice but to leap backward.
"Your magic is useless against . Why don't you just give up? This is your chance. Leave and don't co back."
"What did you say? I've co this far, and you expect to back down? Are you dreaming?!"
In an instant, I activated my demonic manifestation.
Even Asmodeus was at a loss for words.
From his point of view, he never expected to have been hiding my true power.
