“What did you say? M-Mephisto???”
After receiving Berial’s report, Julia and Benia, the two mistresses, were stunned for a while.
In the Abyss, there were trillions of demons living, but only a dozen of them could stand at the top of the demon pyramid. In addition to the earliest batch of the Deadly Sin Demon Kings representing the Seven Deadly Sins and the Red Sea Queen Lilith, there were actually a few second-generation demon kings in the Abyss.
Unlike Roy, a demon king who had just ascended, the second-generation demon kings had existed in the Abyss for a very, very long time. This long time was calculated in units of at least ten thousand years. During this long time, these second-generation demon kings had naturally made a name for themselves in the Infinite Worlds. Their resounding names had not only spread throughout the Abyss but also in the human worlds and Heaven.
The angels of the high-level Heaven wanted to kill these demon kings all the time. But unfortunately, in the same long Eternal War, both sides had won and lost, and they could only maintain a delicate balance.
As time passed, the achievements of the second-generation demon kings gave them new titles.
Hatred, lies, torture, anguish, fear, evil, and destruction, these titles named after negative emotions represented the highest honor of the Abyss. These seven second-generation demon kings were also the ‘New Seven Sins Demon Kings’ in the hearts of the Abyss demons!
Among the seven new demon kings, the King of Hatred Mephisto, the King of Destruction Baal, and the King of Fear Diablo were the most famous!
Among the thirteen publicly recognized demon kings of the Abyss, the three of them occupied three seats. As for King of Lies Belial, Andariel, and the others, they were more controversial…
However, in the past few thousand years, it had been difficult to see the figures of these New Seven Sins Demon Kings in the Abyss. In the news circulated among the demons, these new demon kings seemed to have fallen into an ultra -high-level world, and they had been unable to escape and were directly trapped…
At the demon king level, souls were almost eternal and difficult to kill. But being difficult to kill did not mean that they could not be sealed. If the demon kings encountered powerful Archangel-level enemies, they might also fail. In the Abyss, there had been cases of demon kings being sealed for tens of thousands of years. So even though it was difficult to see traces of the activities of the new demon kings in the Abyss, the demons did not think much of it. After all, they still had to live their own lives.
When Roy encountered Rodin in the Devil May Cry world, he called himself Mephisto. Since he dared to call himself this, it meant that Rodin was a clone of Mephisto. But this matter was spoken of when only Roy and Rodin were around. Roy had not mentioned it to Julia and the others afterward, so when they suddenly heard this name, Julia and Benia were so shocked.
In order to welcome the arrival of the veteran demon king Mephisto, Frostfire City immediately mobilized. The four demon lords, Julia, and Benia brought many demons to welcome Mephisto.
At the same time, they got Sareth to call Roy quickly back from his seclusion.
“Hmm, not bad!” When he arrived at the city gates of Frostfire City, Mephisto held a can in his hand, looking very gentlemanly. He held the cane with both hands and stopped to size up Frostfire City, nodding and praising it continuously.
“Your Majesty Mephisto, welcome…” Julia and Benia knelt on one knee and said respectfully to Mephisto with everyone. “May I know why you’re here…?”
The human-looking Mephisto looked at Julia, and a golden-red light flashed in his eyes. He seemed to have used some kind of power to observe Julia, and then he said in surprise, “So, it’s you… Child, your strength has gone one step further. It seems that you have digested most of Archangel Jubelius’s soul! ”
Julia was stunned. She did not know how Mephisto knew about this, but she was smart and did not say anything.
“It seems like I really came to the right place this time…” Mephisto said to himself before continuing to walk into the city with his cane. While walking, he said to Julia and Benia, who were following behind him, “I’m here to find your new king, Osiris. I wonder if he has the time to come and see me, this old man?”
“Of… of course. We’ve already sent someone to inform him to come…” Benia replied softly.
“Hmm, you’re not bad as a lilim!” Mephisto looked back at Benia and nodded approvingly.
Lilim was another form of address for succubi, which meant daughter of Lilith.
The entire race of succubi had this name, but this name was rare nowadays. Only the older demons still maintained the tradition of calling them lilim. Benia immediately realized that Mephisto might really be an old monster of the Abyss…
After entering Frostfire City, Mephisto did not stand on ceremony. He looked around and then sat down beside the throne in the castle hall. He placed the cane carefully beside him and tidied his meticulously groomed hair, looking as though he was preparing for the meeting.
If someone ignored Mephisto’s current position and said that Mephisto was a true human gentleman, people would definitely believe it…
He waited quietly, but Julia, Benia, and the others were nervous. Mephisto had come alone, so he should not have any ill intentions. But there had always been a saying in the Abyss that kings did not meet kings because it was difficult to guess the thoughts of demons. No one could predict what would happen when two demon kings met…
I hope they don’t fight… We’ve just rebuilt Frostfire City. Ifits destroyed again, it’ll be troublesome… Julia and Benia thought.
The wait was a little long, but Mephisto waited quietly. After some time, he suddenly smiled and stood up. “He’s here. ”
The next second, countless mist appeared from space and finally gathered into Roy’s body.
The volume of mist was so much that after Roy appeared, he was looking down at Mephisto. But Mephisto was not annoyed at all. Instead, he looked up at Roy’s body with interest.
Seeing Mephisto’s human appearance, Roy was a little surprised. When Sareth rushed to find him, he did not explain clearly, so when he saw Mephisto’s human appearance, Roy felt that his eyes were blurry.
“Ha, my friend Osiris, we meet again!” Mephisto opened his arms with a smile, looking forward to hugging.
Roy was silent for a moment before reacting. The mist body shook and shrank before quickly condensing into a human appearance.
He had black hair and black eyes, but his facial features and appearance were strangely a little blurry.
Without a doubt, this was Roy’s appearance when he was a human. During his seclusion, he could finally control his mist body to simulate other images. Now that he saw that Mephisto was also human, he naturally subconsciously simulated his original appearance.
However… because it had been a long time, Roy could not even remember his original appearance, so his facial features were blurry. Only his black hair and black eyes were very clear…
Seeing Roy transform into a human, Mephisto was a little surprised. But then he immediately laughed and said to Roy, “Look, we actually have a lot in common, don’t we?”
“You’ve… obtained Rodin’s memories?” Roy asked Mephisto while adapting to this human body. “Despite being so far away in time and space, can you still contact your clone?”
“That’s right!” Mephisto nodded, but then he sighed. “But it’s only memories. Those clones have already formed their independent personalities over the long years. They are even completely connected to those worlds and are unwilling to return to their main bodies…”
Roy nodded and did not say anything. When he encountered Rodin, he had found that this clone of his already had the power of a demon king. In such a situation, it was really difficult to say who was the clone and who was the main body.
It was the same for Julia. It was right to say that she was a clone of Jubelius, but now that she was gradually fusing with Jubelius’s soul, she had become the main body instead.
There were many openings in the Infinite Worlds, and one needed to be cautious regarding clones. This was a truth that Roy understood. These ancient demons and angels had demonstrated the consequences of doing so over a long period of time. As a later generation, Roy would be a fool if he did not learn from their lessons.
With this thought, Roy walked to the throne in the hall and sat down. He tilted his head and looked at Mephisto, indicating that he should sit as well. Then he said, “No wonder Rodin told me that we would meet again soon. It seems like he shared his memories with you, right? In that case, are you really the main body?”
“Who knows?” Mephisto suddenly revealed a strange grin. Only when this smile appeared did people feel his non-human identity. He smiled. “Perhaps I feel that I’m the main body, but in fact, I’m also a clone…”
Damn it, those who play with clones are all a bunch oflunatics! Looking at Mephisto’s appearance, Roy could not help complaining in his heart. How is this a demon? He’s simply a schizophrenic patient…
The incarnations of Mephisto had many images in the Infinite Worlds, so no one knew what his true body looked like, and Roy could not say for sure if this body in front of him was his true body. Fortunately, Roy did not think too much about it and directly said, “I thought that when Rodin said that we would meet again, it would be a matter of one or two hundred years later. I didn’t expect you to find me so soon. Tell me. What is it?”
“The reason I came this time is firstly to see you, a new demon king. After all, it’s been a long time since a new demon king has been born in the Abyss…” Mephisto said slowly. “Secondly, I want to invite you!”
“Invite me?” Roy looked at him in confusion.
“That’s right. Invite you!” Mephisto nodded, and his tone was already slowly becoming bewitching. “I believe you’ve also discovered that after becoming a demon king, although you have become incomparably powerful, the corresponding restrictions have increased. The worlds you went to in the past are now very difficult to go to via the Gates of the Abyss, right? Then, do you want to not be hindered by this?”
Roy did not answer. Instead, he stared at Mephisto’s persuasive expression for a while before suddenly smiling.. “Of course, I want to go to the Infinite Worlds without any obstruction, but isn’t this very easy to solve? Isn’t it fine as long as I find those high-energy worlds? Why do I need you to invite me?”
