Erebos, with a swift and decisive movement, shook off the chains that had bound him. As they clattered to the ground, they disintegrated, fading into nothing but wisps of energy. He then proceeded to dust off his suit with an air of nonchalance. "I have many friends in far places," he remarked, his voice steady and confident.
Placing a comforting hand around the old Yami King, who appeared somewhat disheveled, Erebos conveyed both support and camaraderie.
"It's a pleasure to meet you again, my lord," he said, bringing a hand over his chest in a gesture of respect. His eyes held a glint of relief and triumph as he continued, "I didn't expect to actually make it out alive of that mess. But, in the end, it went just like you predicted."
Meanwhile, the Demon King, overwhelmed by frustration and disbelief, cursed under his breath. In a sudden movement driven by emotion, he brought both hands above his chest, clenching them tightly. The tension in his voice was palpable as he turned to Mr. Dracula, "You saw that liquid, right?"
Dracula, with a tone of deep understanding mixed with a hint of mystery, responded to the query. "Yes, I'm well aware of it. But, I'm not entirely certain how he managed to even sign a contract, Mr. K."
He then reflected on the situation further, "This is probably related to his mother's demise. He's been on a descent ever since then, but I never would have guessed it would lead him here."
Who even is that weak man in front of Erebos right now? Dracula requested
The Vampire King reacted with remarkable speed, quickly producing a silver object and uttering the word "Rejoice!" As the liquid approached, it splattered against an invisible wall and swiftly faded into nothingness, thwarted by the Vampire King's quick thinking and mysterious artifact.
Meanwhile, Erebos, ever composed, turned his attention to the man in the white suit. "And who may you be?" he inquired, his curiosity piqued by this unexpected intruder.
The man in the white suit, exuding a mix of annoyance and resolve, responded while loosening his tie. "I was supposed to be on vacation on the beach, but I woke up here and was assigned door duty. I've dealt with bastards like you before," he declared, his glasses slipping slightly, revealing his light blue eyes. He closed the distance with Erebos effortlessly, launching a swing at him.
Erebos, quick on his feet, jumped over the man, attempting to touch his back with the black liquid. However, the man in the white suit was equally agile, countering with a backward swing of his metal bar that connected with Erebos' head, creating a loud 'ding' sound. Erebos, unfazed and smiling, acknowledged the man's skill. "You've got some talent, huh?"
Erebos, demonstrating his agility and command over his powers, recoiled into the air. With a swift motion, he swiped his hand, launching a bullet of black liquid towards the man in the white suit at an astonishing speed. The man, realizing the imminent danger, cursed under his breath. "Shit, I can't dodge this in time. I have to wait for her to get here though!" he thought, bracing for the impact.
However, in a sudden turn of events, the Demon King appeared in front of the man, exuding an aura of power and control. With a casual but precise swipe of his hand, he effortlessly dispelled the liquid attack. "Good job holding him off for 10 seconds. Take care of yourself now!" he said, acknowledging the man's effort.
At that moment, the Vampire King emerged from a portal directly behind Erebos. In a decisive and swift action, he plunged his hand into Erebos's back. "I never thought I would have to kill you, but you left me no other choice, EREBOS!" he declared, his voice laden with a mix of regret and resolve.
