Chapter 558: Great Demon Belial

"We are here now, Your Majesty." Zacharite said after he confirmed that they arrived at the right destination, "Ahead, we will see the portal towards the Level 2 Hell. And for sure, there will be enemies waiting for us."

Jin Rou observed the surroundings and expanded his senses. He then could confirm that there were really enemies waiting ahead of them, "Indeed, there were enemies but only one could threaten you."

"It's probably Belial." Zacharite spoke, "It's always him who guards the portal here."

Great Demon Belial might be the weakest great demon in the rankings, but his strength couldn't be underestimated. Remember, he was still a great demon no matter what. Furthermore, he was feared here in the Level 1 Hell.

"Let's go. We have to face him." Jin Rou moved forward without hesitation.

Zacharite nodded solemnly and followed suit. He knew that he couldn't avoid a direct confrontation with Great Demon Belial. After all, this was the only way leading to Level 2 Hell.

After walking for five minutes, Jin Rou and Zacharite reached the end of the place. There, a demon with a red dobe and red hair was standing by the portal. He appeared dignified as he looked at the two like they were already dead.

Great Demon Belial. His name could make anyone in Level 1 Hell shake in fear. He was not only vicious, he was also merciless towards his enemies. It wasn't an exaggeration to call him 'King of Level 1 Hell' here.

"It's been a long time, and looks like you bave greatly weakened, Zacharite." Great Demon Belial smirked as he observed Zacharite. With his eyes, he could see that Zacharite wasn't as strong as before in the past, "What sort of guts have you eaten to return here and even bring a human with you?"

"It's none of your business." Zacharite said filled with cold tone, "Open the portal and you will be spared. This will be your first and last opportunity to live."

He was telling the truth. If ever Great Demon Belial really opened the portal, Jin Rou would spare him but if he insisted on being hard headed, death was only the thing awaiting him in the end. Of course, it was impossible to have him do the former.

"Threats will not work on me, especially with your level." Great Demon Belial said and looked at Jin Rou, "Human, you will be escorted to our prison because of entering Great Hell without permission."

"Who are you to decide His Majesty's destination?!" Zacharite was enraged.

"His Majesty?" Great Demon Belial sneered as he looked at Zacharite in disdain, "You are showing such a great amount of respect towards this human? You have gone low, for real."

Zacharite wanted to say more. But Jin Rou gave him a glance and understood what he was trying to say. In the end, he closed his mouth. Jin Rou was about to make his move.

"Great Demon Belial, is it?" Jin Rou looked at the great demon with keen observation, "You are quite talented. You might be the youngest demon to become a great demon here in Great Hell."

Hearing praises, Great Demon Belial was elated and proud, "That's right. That is me. At least, you have good eyes."

"Unfortunately, that's not enough to dictate where should I go." Jin Rou shook his head in disappointment, "Great demons or demon lords, you can come at me anytime."

Great Demon Belial was stupefied by Jin Rou's remarks and said, "Audacious!"

"Shut your mouth. Kneel." Jin Rou's tone was colder than the coldest ice.

"Thump!" All of a sudden, an unknown force pushed the great demon on his knees. The force was greater than carrying two worlds at once.

"How?" Great Demon Belial was surprised. It was the first time he felt this power. Even Great Demon Baal couldn't make him feel this way! It was like a monster of the old era, accumulated large amounts of power of the world and it was ready to destroy everything. The feeling was suffocating enough to make him helpless.

"For a great demon, you are not that bad." Jin Rou said, "But compared to the others, you far lack so many things."

Jin Rou circled around the kneeling great demon and said, "Before I kill you, let me tell you something."

"You will dare to kill me?" Albeit afraid, Great Demon Belial still managed to say at an aggressive tone. He also ordered the army hiding in the shadows to stay still and wait for his orders.

"No one is threatening enough for me not to dare kill." Jin Rou smiled. He looked like a devil who enjoyed seeing his prey suffer and said, "I am the strongest. Even your Great Demon Baal will be below my feet."

"Presumptuous! To say such things, you deserve many deaths!" Great Demon Belial took pride in Great Demon Baal. He was the pride and tower that Belial wanted to climb over. So no one should dare to mock his tower.

"Slap!" Jin Rou slapped the great demon with might which made the great demon's teeth fall off to the ground. He looked coldly at him and said, "For a weakling of a great demon, you sure talk too much. Next time that you speak things without permission, you will be dead."

Great Demon Belial closed his mouth shut. He knew that Jin Rou wasn't kidding and would actually kill him if he pushed his luck. His only chance was the formation he tasked the demon army by the shadows.

"Zacharite, this demon has debt to be paid on you, right?" Jin Rou activated his chains and binded the great demon, "Now, you can do what you want with him."

"No! What the heck are you doing? Untie me!" The great demon tried to break these chains but even after using all his strength, it was rendered useless. The fear he was feeling was getting larger and larger in his chest.

"I'm just giving you a chance to pay your debt." Jin Rou smirked. He looked like sadist right now who enjoyed seeing people suffer like this.
