Archdemon

Slater in Malsham.

Originally, he was resting when he suddenly noticed a group of demons coming outside. Judging from their attire, they were the guards and attendants of Asmodeus.

Slater's heart tightened and he quickly opened the door.

"Mr. Marquis, His Majesty summoned you. Please follow us..." The attendant demon was a viscount, and his face was calm.

Slater nodded, and then quietly handed over some local specialties: "Your Majesty... did you say what it was?"

The demon viscount put away the local specialties and said with a smile: "I don't know the specific situation, but it's such a sudden summons, and we are here to invite you, it must be a good thing!"

Slater's hanging heart was directly put down by more than half, as long as it's a good thing!

Slater followed the attendant demon, passed through layers of guards, and came to the palace of Malsham again.

After a period of waiting, he saw Asmodeus.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Slater saluted quickly.

Asmodeus waited for Slater to finish his ceremony, and then slowly said: "Avernus cannot be without a master for a day!"

"I have decided to confer the title of Lord of Avernus on Horing!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"I thank Your Majesty on behalf of my master!" Slater was overjoyed.

Asmodeus nodded slightly, and then ordered the attendant beside him to fetch a scroll with powerful magical fluctuations.

Asmodeus spread out the scroll, and then began to exude a powerful aura. At this moment, Slater felt like a small boat in the turbulent waves.

It seemed that under this powerful force, it would capsize if it was not careful.

"Imperial Decree: Horing... is the Lord of Avernus!"

"This order... takes effect immediately!"

The grand and majestic voice echoed in the palace, and the infinite power of rules was stirring in the sky.

Along with the dazzling light and shadow, a ray of light on the scroll shot up into the sky.

When the pressure in the hall gradually dissipated, Asmodeus handed the scroll to the devil attendant beside him.

The devil attendant handed the scroll to Slater.

Asmodeus said: "Okay, give this scroll to Huo Ling when you go back."

Slater looked at the scroll in his hand and wondered, is it that simple?

But he still saluted respectfully and said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Asmodeus left, Slater also put the scroll away and started his return journey.

In the floating city of the Bronze Fortress.

Huo Ling was originally practicing, and suddenly realized that there was a new change in the authority of his Lord Avernus.

A light and shadow fell from the sea of ​​rules of Avernus and fell into Huo Ling's hands.

"Decree: Huo Ling is the Lord of Avernus..."

Asmodeus's grand and majestic voice, with the help of Avernus's Sea of ​​Rules, echoed throughout the bronze fortress.

At this moment, no matter what these demons were doing, they could hear this sentence clearly.

Many demons immediately cheered and roared excitedly. Among these demons, there were soldiers who had once been in the demon army, and there were also garrison troops.

There were even big demons cheering, because they also admired Huo Ling who had achieved such a result in the bloody battle.

It was not just the bronze fortress. This voice began to spread from the center of the bronze fortress to the entire Avernus Purgatory and spread to each demon territory.

One by one, the demon dukes, earl lords, and the demons under their rule heard the voice this time.

Huo Ling stood on the top of the mage and overlooked the entire bronze fortress from the floating city. His eyes extended to the distance, as if he was looking at the entire Avernus Purgatory.

Huo Ling put the crown of Avernus on his head again. At this moment, he found that the crown seemed to be in a perfect state.

At this time, Huo Ling truly became the legitimate monarch of Avernus, instead of being a temporary monarch for hundreds of years like Bayer before.

Huo Ling's eyes slowly retracted and fell on a place in the bronze fortress.

This is Zariel's temporary residence. During this period, she disguised herself as a deep hell demon and fought demons here to save money.

Before she left the bronze fortress, Asmodeus had already completed the enthronement.

Huo Ling pondered. It seems that Asmodeus's intelligence and strength are much stronger than Huo Ling had guessed.

In Zariel's temporary residence, she felt Huo Ling's gaze and heard Asmodeus' words.

Zariel raised his head, as if looking at Huo Ling. After a while, Zariel retracted his gaze.Come back and continue to lie on the bed.

She is now lying on the bed to recover from the injuries left by the battle with the demons during this period.

During this period, she did kill a lot of demons, but in the bronze fortress, no one can say that they will not be injured when facing the attacks of demons.

At this moment, there are many deep and shallow scars on her body, and there are still the rules and power left by the demons.

In the past, such injuries were really a piece of cake for Zariel, and he could recover completely with just some magic potion.

But now, Zariel is so poor that he wants to break a disaster coin into two halves to spend. This kind of injury that can be slowly healed by himself, Zariel is reluctant to spend money now.

Zariel, lying on the bed, sighed after a long time.

Although when he saw Huo Ling in the cell, he knew that the position of Lord Avernus was no longer his fate.

But when Asmodeus truly recognized and conferred the title of Lord of Avernus on Horing, Zariel still felt some pain in his heart.

"Woo~~~"

Outside the city, new demons marched out from the Abyss Plains and began to attack the Bronze Fortress.

Zariel, who was lying down, activated her disguise again, changing from her original appearance to the appearance of a hellish demon.

She picked up a rough weapon, which was the weapon of a demon who died in her hands some time ago.

After Zariel was released, she had nothing on her body. In the first battle, she directly relied on her hands to tear the enemy apart.

The situation is much better now. She has put on simple armor and picked up rough weapons without enchantment.

Zariel's injuries have not healed yet. If it were in the past, she would definitely have to recover completely before going to the battlefield again.

But she was in a bad mood, and just at this moment, a demon came to her door.

Zariel didn't care about the injuries on her body, and rushed up directly, waving her weapons and fighting with the demons.

Only by burning the hellfire all over her body and fighting with the demons could she release her inner depression.
