Leo traveled across the devil realm and slaughtered any creature he ca across until he t one who offered him a deal. ’’Stop killing our kind and we’ll make you the owner of Valoria Demon King.’’
He didn’t respond right away, and the devil, sensing his hesitation, pressed on. ’’You have a long life ahead of you, thousands of years, where your won will grow old and fade away, leaving you behind. You could have everything we offer, the best of eternity. Why settle for them?’’
Its words echoed in his mind, but as Leo listened, images of Roxy’s beautiful smile, Luna’s soft laughter, Bella’s warmth, and the faces of the other won filled his thoughts. He shook his head, a sense of peace washing over him despite the temptation.
’’I’ll grow old with them,’’ Leo said firmly. ’’I’ll let my body age alongside theirs. When the ti cos, I’ll leave this world with them—together. We’ll return to nothingness as one because that’s all that matters to .’’
’’Foolish human!’’ the devil exclaid.
Leo laughed before dismissing his helt as he replied. ’’Maybe, but that’s what we humans do best, I guess.’’
Following that, he quickly attacked the Devil General and butchered it, only to feel the experience pour into his body while thinking with a smile. ’You’re changing Leo. I wonder what grandfather would say if he saw you now.’
’He would be a proud old man, my love,’ the goddess’s voice whispered in his mind. ’You’ve changed so much since coming here. Instead of becoming a tyrant, you’ve opened yourself up—to be the man he always dread you could be, the man he still hopes you’ll beco.’
As her words settled in his heart, the air shifted, and before him stood the dark-haired woman, her smile both comforting. But it wasn’t just her that made his breath catch, it was the figure standing beside her.
’’Grandfather,’’ he muttered.
Although ti weathered his features, they were still unmistakable. The old man’s eyes sparkled with pride as he stepped forward, his voice thick with emotion. ’You’re becoming more human, my boy,’ he said, his voice cracking slightly. ’I’m so proud of you. I always knew you had it in you.’
Tears stung Leo’s eyes, a weight he hadn’t realized he was carrying lifting from his chest. He’d longed for approval from the very man who now stood before him. The old man reached out, his hands trembling slightly, but his eyes unwavering.
’You’ve beco everything I hoped for and more,’ he said with the smile Leo rembered from his childhood. ’You’ve beco a proper man, unlike , who never grew up.’
Before he could speak, the old man continued. ’Return to your won and win the war so you can enjoy your life, my boy.’’
Leo nodded with a smile. ’’That’s the plan, grandfather, but the goddess brought you here,’’ he answered.
’’Forgive for not giving you a heads-up, my love,’’ the goddess murmured. ’’I located his soul and managed to pull it free, but the universe will reclaim him in re monts.’’
Afterward, he watched them vanish into nothingness, which left him smiling before checking his gains from all the fighting.

’An enormous boost which will help against the devil king,’ he thought with an excited smile.
Following that, Leo continued traveling through the devil’s realm while wiping out hordes of enemies, thanks to his overpowered magic. The flas and electricity washed over the creatures and horrifying humanoids.
Explosions erupted all around as he continued attacking. Days passed like this until he ca across a fortress that was guarding his path forward. Leo was standing there as an army of monsters rushed toward him.
Howls, screeches, and hisses echoed out from all around him, but he raised his hand while casting Fireball. The spell grew larger and more powerful before he threw it at the monsters, causing a massive eruption of mana.
Leo basked in the wave of experience that poured into his body, and sothing clicked as the Demon King’s armor started morphing. Spikes grew on the outside to make him look more vicious and his red eyes glead so brightly it lit up his surroundings.
More devils charged at him, but he dodged the attacks so quickly before countering with several California Smashes that destroyed the enemies with ease. He followed this up by casting Thunderbolt at so Hellhounds that tried to bite him.
Monts later, he cast Mana Barrier to block a dozen spells that would have hit him, but his shield was too strong. Leo looked at them with glowing eyes and replied with a nacing smile. ’’My turn.’’
With little effort, Leo unleashed his Supernova Punches, each strike reverberating through the devil’s realm like an earthquake. The sheer force of his blows sent shockwaves tearing through the battlefield, reducing fiends to dust.
Consud by excitent, he lashed out at anything within reach, his mana obliterating enemies before they could even touch him. The horde of monsters and devils fell like dominos.
Step by step, he carved a path of destruction toward the fortress. By the ti he reached its towering gate, a massive armored knight awaited him, gripping a longsword that glead with an ominous power.
’’Another devil general, perhaps?’’ he muttered, eyeing the towering figure before him.
’’No,’’ the armored warrior rumbled. ’’I am a Devil Knight of the King, and I look forward to this battle.’’
Leo’s eyes widened, excitent flashing in his gaze. He cracked his knuckles, then vanished in an instant. A heartbeat later, he reappeared, driving a California Smash into the knight’s chest.
A deafening boom tore through the battlefield as the sheer force of the strike sent the devil hurtling backward, obliterating everything in its path until it crashed into the fortress wall with earth-shaking impact.
’’Not so strong it seems, but I’m surprised you’re still alive,’’ he comnted as his smile grew wider. ’’How many knights are there?’’
’’Twenty, including ,’’ the devil answered, rising to its feet as a surge of mana engulfed its armored form.
In an instant, it shot forward with blistering speed, so fast that even he was surprised. But instead of panic, a chuckle escaped his lips. With effortless precision, he caught the incoming blade mid-swing, stopping it dead in its tracks.
The devil’s eyes widened in shock as Leo grinned. ’’Too slow.’’
Before the knight could react, his fist rocketed forward, slamming into its chest with crushing force. The impact sent the devil hurtling backward once more, crashing into the fortress wall with an even greater explosion of stone and dust.
Leo approached the down knight, who was still alive to his shock, causing him to suggest. ’’Look, I’ll eventually kill you, but why waste your life down here? Why not co to the real world with ? Beco my knights.’’
When the words left his lips, the realm trembled, causing the devil to comnt. ’’Looks like the king is angry that I severed the connection to join you as my new lord.’’
’’Excellent! Now we have to go recruit the rest!’’ he announced just as a notification popped up, which made his smile grow.
[Skill: Knight Realm - Demon King Knights: 1/20 - Loyal subordinates that can be summoned using your mana]
’’Interesting, let’s check out the description,’’ he muttered.
[Knight Realm: Allows the Demon Knights to travel with you by hiding within your shadow]
Without hesitation, Leo extended his hand, unleashing a surge of power that banished the knight into the abyss that would keep them there until he needed them. His eyes flickered with intrigue as he summoned it back.
Monts later, the armored warrior reappeared, bewildered and glancing around in confusion. Before it could speak, Leo’s voice cut through the air with commanding authority. ’’Your na will be Abaddon. You will lead the rest of the knights when they finally join us.’’
When Abaddon heard this, he dropped to one knee while exclaiming in a voice full of respect. ’’Bless the Demon King, this na is powerful and will cause the devils to shake in fear.’’
Leo let out a hearty laugh, his excitent palpable as he gestured toward the wave of approaching monsters.
’’Deal with that, Abaddon,’’ he commanded, a smirk tugging at his lips. ’’Show your power.’’
The newly nad devil knight straightened, his crimson eyes burning with newfound purpose. Without hesitation, he tightened his grip on his blade and stepped forward, ready to unleash havoc upon those foolish enough to stand in their path.
Abaddon strode toward the oncoming horde, his armored boots shaking the ground with every step. The surrounding air crackled with dark energy as he vanished. A shockwave erupted from where he once stood, sending dust and debris flying.
Before the creatures could react, Abaddon was already among them, his massive blade carving through flesh and bone like a scythe through wheat.
