Chapter 228: Jsj
"...….."
Silence…..jj
Hearing Lucifer"s words, Although they didn"t want to admit it, but if this was true, then this wasn"t a joking matter
After all, as demon G.o.ds they too had heard the prophecy given by the world will thanks to their forces attacking the main plane
And while there were some doubts here and there as they wondered if the G.o.ds of Elias had edited or changed anything
However, one sure thing was that the core of the prophecy would be the same since greatly manipulating it would incur punishment
And with this punishment being from no other than the world will itself, at least the demon G.o.ds present felt like no one would take such a risk
Since even a demon G.o.d would be severely injured once dealt with by the will of the world.
So hearing Lucifer"s words, they vaguely remembered the part where the human king seems to be at the centre of the upcoming change
And if the human who just entered the abyss was the human king, and it was this strange power called magic that gave him his strength
Then what would happen if the human king and the power of magic fell into their hands?
Power!
Yes power, welding these two powers, the abyss demon G.o.ds had begun to say dream about leading the upcoming changes
Invading the main world, transcending the demon G.o.d, and becoming truly omniscient and omnipotent
Unfortunately, since they had neither of these two items, their desires could only stop at daydreaming
*Snap!*
Sensing the overflowing greed off their bodies, all the surrounding demons G.o.ds quickly snapped out of it turning to give
Mammon an angry look
"d.a.m.n Mammon! Is this really the time for this!"
Turning their heads toward Mammon, all the demon G.o.ds including Asmodeus couldn"t help but sharpen their gazes.
They couldn"t believe that Mammon took this opportunity to try and harvest the power of greed of them,
However, after calming down and thinking of the general abyss demon behaviour, they suddenly felt it was normal
"Haha everyone calm down, I was just trying to lighten up the mood, don"t take it too seriously"
Said Mammon as he realised he had been caught.
Fortunately, there was still the whole issue with Ginoress and Elric on ground so after giving him a few bad gazes, they quickly retracted their attention
*Ahem*
"Like I was saying, since this human being is so important, then I reckon we should capture him Immediately"
"Unfortunately, the current situation makes it seem impossible"
Gaining everyone"s attention, Lucifer once again projected the screen of where Elric was at the moment
Located in a dark cave-like environment near the centre of the valley, he seemed to be mad as Elric spoke to himself from time to time
Obviously, neither Lucifer nor the other demon G.o.ds could see the existence of Ava
"...."
"Lucifer, what in the abyss are we supposed to see here!?"
"The human talking to himself? If that"s the case then I"m leaving here!"
Said Satan who was already bored of this meeting
In fact, similar to him other abyss demon G.o.ds also thought so as many of them wanted to leave and go capture Elric for themselves
However, considering Lucifer"s suppression, Although they felt like doing so, n.o.body made a move.
"That"s not it, wait for a second."
"Although I"m a bit curious about who that human is currently talking to, that"s not what I wanted to show you."
"This is!" Said Lucifer
Zooming out of Elric"s location, Lucifer showed the projection of the 567th floor as a whole (.)com
However, none of them were surprised as many of them could even look at the whole abyss if they wanted to
It was what happened next that truly left the speechless
*Boom!*
With a huge explosion, the demon G.o.ds seemed to feel the whole abyss shaking, it seemed like something huge was about to take place
And what happened next on the projection completely proved their point.
Looking closer at the projection, the demon G.o.ds noticed a huge arm reaching toward the 567th floor
And judging from its sheer size alone, anyone who saw this would be worried for the floor and its inhabitants from being crushed by its oncoming indomitable figure
However, what happened next completely exceeded anyone"s expectation
*Bang!*
As if blocked by a transparent barrier, the giant arm was locked in a position unable to make any further moves
And if that wasn"t enough, just as the giant arm was blocked, a series of lightning bolts began to descend landing directly on the arm
*Boom!"
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
With three consecutive strikes, Although the skin on the arm didn"t seem to break, the blackened patches seemed to show the attack was at least successful.
"d.a.m.n Lucifer is that what I think it is!?"
Watching this happen in the projection, Asmodeus as well as the other demons G.o.ds couldn"t believe their eyes
And Lucifer, knowing what they were thinking nodded slowly removing the projection screen
"As you can see, it seems like the whole 567th floor is being protected by the abyss will"
"And any attempt to try and break through would incur its wrath, including us demon G.o.ds"
Raising his hand, Lucifer began to show them the burnt patches from the earlier lightning strike
Yes, that giant hand was none other than Lucifer"s
And for an abyss demon G.o.d on the verge of transcendence, like Lucifer to be hurt, one can easily tell just what that lightning bolt was.
"Word destroying lightning" Lucifer murmured
Lightning condensed by the will of the world using its world power as the core capable of wiping out almost all existence
Only something of such a supreme nature was capable of harming someone as powerful as him
In fact, Lucifer knew he was lucky as the abyss will was only warning him as if those earlier bolts had been on full throttle, then losing his arm as a whole would have been the best-case scenario.
Realising this, Although angry at his own weakness, Lucifer further strengthened his determination to capture Elric
