Chapter 371: 370: King Of Demons.

Everyone was gathered in the meeting room and sat on the giant square table. Jeanne, Lillith, Edith, Nagy, Brynhilde, Manna, Gunnar, Rozan, Sven, Vincze, Gerrard, Lexus, Nexus, and Euros were sitting on the left side of the table. Beldathiel, Glasya, Vixelleth, Zherlthsh, Nefarath, Sapphira, Nephilim, Deviatris, Frigna, Kiersha, Lilith, Agnez, and Luciel were sitting on the right side of the table.

Mykel was the one who brought all of them there, and the room was silent as the two sides of the table stared at each other. The longer they were there, the heavier the atmosphere and the heat raised as Jeanne and Luciel stared at each other.

"Why are we all gathered here again?" Rozan quietly asked Gunnar.

"Maybe the same as before, we just have to wait and see until the boss is back," Gunnar answered.

"Wait? They're going to kill us all if he's not back any time soon," Rozan looked at Jeanne and Luciel back and forth.

(An hour ago)

Mykel and Lucifer landed on the nine divinity island after knowing Beldathiel had managed to persuade Luciel. Both Beldathiel and Luciel were petrified when they saw Lucifer walking behind Mykel, and it gave them chills down their spines.

"Don't be scared, he's not really alive. It's only his apparition," Mykel answered. "So? Have you decided?" Mykel looked at Luciel who still couldn't believe to see her father again.

After seeing Lucifer, Luciel started to have a change of heart.

"Don't look at me. You have taken this path, and it's your responsibility to deal with all the consequences of your actions. You're the one who's responsible for both Gehenna and Empyrean, and everything in them now," Lucifer said with a serious expression.

Luciel nodded her head with understanding, and then she looked up and created a whirlpool cloud. It was a portal to connect Gehenna and Empyrean to summon all the Demon Kings.

One by one, all the Demon Kings came out of the portals and went straight down to the island. Each one of them immediately bowed their head as they were on their knees. They didn't care who was in front of them, but as long as Lucifer was there, they would bow down until they were ordered to rise.

It was Mykel's plan to take over the demons, but seeing how things were going, he gave that responsibility to Luciel. She seems to be determined by it as well, and it wasn't a bad idea since it would be easier that way.

"Raise your head," Lucifer said as he glared down at them.

All the Demon Kings slowly stood tall, and they all immediately glanced at Mykel who was standing on the side. He was playing with Angra and didn't bother with the gazes at all.

"My king, you're still alive?" Asmodeus asked.

"I'm no longer your king," Lucifer said as he walked toward Luciel. All the Demon Kings were dumbfounded and looked at Lucifer with their eyes wide open. "My daughter will take my place instead," Lucifer continued as he stood next to Luciel. "Anyone who's against it, I will erase your existence," Lucifer glared at with his sharp and bright yellow eyes.

The first to bow down was Belphegor who showed his loyalty to Luciel. The other Demon Kings were surprised by how easy it was for him to pledge his loyalty. Of course, they couldn't do anything but obey Lucifer's words, but they all hesitated.

"Forgive my rudeness, my king. Isn't she the one who betrayed you?" A very tall skinny demon with messy long hair that covered his face, and wrapped his two horns above his ears. His red eyes barely could be seen in between his black hair. He had a very long black tail whipping the ground.

"She did that to prevent my mistakes from getting worse. The mistake I made when I made a deal with her, Satan," Lucifer answered as he stared at Satan from the corner of his eyes.

"But that was all because of him," A demon with a light brown hair covered the right side of his face. A hornless demon with nothing to cover his chest, a black long gown covered his waist down to his feet. A gold bracelet on his upper arms, a pair of wings like a falcon, and a sword sheathed behind his waist.

"Yes, everything that happened was all because of him," Lucifer answered. "But it's still the mistake I made, Azazel," Lucifer continued.

"And now, even my king knows, my king still decide to give your throne?" A man with a hood that covered his face and his shiny blue hair. A pair of wings that looked like goldfish fins with emerald blue color. Six arms were hidden underneath the long robe.

"The damage has been done, my soul has been sold to her. My life is over, and he's the one who saved me. There are things that you won't understand. Something that not a single one of you could comprehend," Lucifer answered, and he raised his voice because he started to get annoyed by all the questions.

All of them bowed their heads and didn't say a single word from their mouths.

"This is the best outcome for me, but not for all of you. I'm putting every one of you in danger because of me and knowing that my existence has been limited, you have nobody else to depend on. That's why I want Luciel to take my position," Lucifer said.

Mykel listened to them from the side, and Lucifer told them about his original plan. The reason he created Luciel and they were speechless was when they saw the powers of Lucifer's siblings and Lucifer's power inside her.

It didn't take long until they all pledged their loyalty to Luciel, and they called their daughters as well to pledge their loyalty to her. They all bowed their heads and were on their knees to serve a new king of the demons. Now that she was burdened by responsibility, she didn't have a choice but to raise her [Authority] level.

(Back to the present)

"Jeanne, is it?" Luciel asked.

Mykel entered the room and felt the tension in the room where Luciel was being stared at by Jeanne and the others.

"You haven't said anything?" Mykel asked Luciel.

"I don't think they would listen to my words if you're not around. Their gazes are enough to tell me that," Luciel answered as she kept staring at Jeanne with his arms and legs crossed. Her strand of hair covered her left eye. "But since you're here, I should start to apologize to them," Luciel said as she stood up and shocked the other sisters.

"I'm sorry, for what I did and the lives that I took back there," Luciel said as she looked at Jeanne and Brynhilde. They both were mildly shocked by it, and they saw the sincerity in her words. "If you want to know, the lives of the Empyreanian that I took, they all live happily in the Empyrean. Mykel and Beldathiel can vouch for my words since they both have seen them up there," Luciel said.

Jeanne and Brynhilde looked at Mykel, and then Mykel nodded his head.

"It was just an act, but it was necessary to fool my father, Lucifer. I can't bring them back to life, but I know for sure they're enjoying their new place in heaven," Luciel said.

"Of course, I came here not just for that. There's something I want everyone to hear," Luciel said.

Luciel started explaining about her becoming the new king of the demons, replacing Lucifer's position. She then started telling them about the game where Mortals were fighting against demons when the Gods were watching and enjoying the game. She expressed her hatred and anger toward the Gods, especially Mara because, in the end, both the demons and the mortals were the victims of their pleasure.

They knew it was Mara and Lucifer who started it, and Luciel admitted to it that she and the other Demon Lords took part in it. But they didn't ask for it, and they were being used like how the mortals were being used by the Gods as their Recipients and becoming Awakeners.

"What I'm trying to say is not every demon and God wanted this, but they have no other choice other than to participate. I can't stop this, I can't stop the demons from invading the existing worlds since the game is still running until one of the sides lose, and you have no other choice but to defend yourself and fight the demons because of it. If we want to end this, we have to get rid of the one who started it. Now that one of them is gone, there's one left to go," Luciel explained seriously.

"You know who she is," Luciel said as she looked at Jeanne.

"And what you're going to propose?" Jeanne asked.

"I need the power to stand among the Constellations, and I need Recipients so I can fight side by side with Mykel to fight her," Luciel answered. "I know it sounds ironic after explaining all that, but this is the only way, by putting myself in the game, among the Gods," Luciel said.

"And what do we get in return?" Jeanne asked.

"Right now, the only thing that I can think of is no more breakouts. We will not invade any world. You're free to free the worlds that we conquered without any interference. Of course, that's a must since I will be your Benefactor," Luciel answered.

Jeanne and the others looked at each other, and they didn't know what to decide. Nobody wanted to decide, but knowing Jeanne was the strongest and Agnez took a side with the demons, she was the only one that should do it.

"Okay, and I want you to keep your word," Jeanne said.

"I will, and if I go back with my words, Mykel will punish me for it. Isn't that right, Mykel?" Luciel asked and stared Mykel in the eye.

"Definitely," Mykel answered with a smile.
