Chapter 446: Very possessive
The arrogant smile on Abyss Trinity's face froze when he heard what Eiji said.
He was a little offended.
"So obvious? I'm the Magic King! Although my current power is incomplete. My theme is a nightmare for you mages."
His words sounded arrogant but it was a fact.
Compared to the Magic Kings from the other archives. Crimson Magic King, the otherworldly Abyss Trinity had a combination of Archives and themes that could be considered perfect and deadly.
Long ago before he was summoned by the Spriggan to the Sky Library as a weapon to kill this world's future Magic King, Arata.
Arata didn't know this but his and Lilith's arrival here had been known for a long time by Abyss Trinity. All this time, the Abyss Trinity had only been patiently waiting for them to come to the Sky Library.
The purpose was the same as Lilith had said. But to be clear, his actual purpose was similar to what Hijiri wanted to do.
Abyss Trinity wanted to destroy the Magic King System and to do so he killed his Trinity Seven and even destroyed his own world.
However, it didn't end there. Abyss Trinity also wanted to destroy other worlds that had Magic Kings. For that, when Lilith was born and was still a baby, she was sent to an alternate world which is basically the world she lives in now.
Lilith was an important key to connecting this world with Abyss Trinity's world so that the man could recover his full power.
Eiji knew all this and although he had told the heroines, especially Lilith in the past about this through his inner voice.
He explained in more detail about it in his inner voice and now Lilith was staring at her father complicatedly.
Hijiri who was listening from inside the necklace was surprised. After all, unlike Lilith and the other heroine, she only knew about Abyss Trinity's background and purpose similar to her now.
If it was her before meeting Eiji and hearing his inner voice. Hijiri wanted to invite Abyss Trinity to her group, Iscariot. But now?
Despite her good impression of Arata that was declining. She still wanted to destroy the Magic King System. But she wanted to recover her body with Eiji's help and after that...
It might not be bad to follow Eiji who knew a lot about the future of the world because as long as there was him. Hijiri doubted Arata could destroy the world.
Eiji didn't know what Hijiri was thinking. However, he received a positive level notification from Leme.
[Hijiri +2]
It's really strange.
Sometimes Eiji didn't know how the heroines' brains worked.
For now, he took out Judecca from his inventory and released a small portion of Varvatos' magic.
*Boom!*
At this moment, in everyone's eyes, crimson magic erupted from Eiji's body. The man's hair turned snow-white and golden cross pupils appeared in his eyes.
He looked even more handsome which left the women at the scene dazed. But in the eyes of Abyss Trinity and Arata, Eiji looked terrifying.
The oppression from his body shrunk their Magic King Element.
Abyss Trinity felt a chill in his heart as if he had been confronted by an Evil God or something. Now, he realized that he had underestimated his daughter's boyfriend too much!
He did not hesitate to take out his own sword, Caina. It was a Magic King Weapon similar in appearance to a serrated sword like Judecca but crimson in color.
Arata who saw the two of them having a Magic King Weapon in their respective hands felt envious as he didn't have one at all.
"Father-in-law, you don't seem to have noticed the first point I previously mentioned. Unlike other mages you are now dealing with me."
Eiji smiled slightly. He was now in Varvatos' form. This was not his full form otherwise the women around him would feel even more terrifying terror from him.
Just to deal with his father-in-law.
He thought this form was more than enough.
"Interesting. But did you not hear anything I said earlier? Eiji, I admit that the magic power you show exceeds my current self. But now I have also taken out my weapon, Caina."
"With this I-"
Abyss Trinity was still confident in the defense given by his theme. He wanted to say that with Caina in his hands, he could control nothingness more efficiently and more powerfully than before.
However, Eiji didn't care and directly attacked him.
"Judecca, I will use my magic spell. Giga Flame."
[I understand what you want to do, Master. Magic synchronization activated!]
Instantly, Judecca was enveloped by red flames with terrifying magic fluctuations. It was one of Varvatos' magic spells, Giga Flame which could release a giant fireball. But now it turned into a flame that coated the blade of a sword with no weaker power.
The fire was so hot that Lilith and the others began to feel an increase in temperature in the ruins that were originally cold because they were above the cloudy sky.
Those around Eiji could be burned. Fortunately Eiji was moving so fast that even Lugh's eyes that could see the speed of light were unable to follow his movements.
Eiji suddenly appeared in front of Abyss Trinity as if teleporting with Judecca raised high into the sky and his flames began to grow like a giant pillar of fire.
He performed a vertical slash.
Abyss Trinity could barely react if not for his instinct to make the snake that was the manifestation of his theme, Vanitas move to envelop his entire body.
He also luckily managed to lift Caina in front of his body.
Abyss Trinity was slightly relieved but the expression turned to horror because at this moment Eiji's attack penetrated the defense he was proud of.
**Boom!!**
An even bigger explosion occurred. A strong wind blew so that Lilith and the others had to close their eyes for a while to prevent dust from entering their eyes.
After they opened their eyes. They were dumbfounded when they saw ruins, castles in the distance and even mountains burning in a straight line.
The sight was like the gates of hell had just opened.
They would be even more dumbfounded if they found out that the slash created a 100km-long crater.
It exceeded the size of the Sky Library so that the clouds at their height were also slashed in a straight line.
People on the ground within a 100km radius could see the dark clouds split with trails of red fire.
The sight made people who saw it shudder. The mages who saw it wondered who the person who unleashed the attack was?
Was it the Trinity Seven? Paladins? Or perhaps the reborn Magic King? Whoever it was. They did not dare to provoke him.
Abyss Trinity grinned, he was about to do something but Eiji hurriedly asked because he remembered something.
"Wait a minute, father-in-law."
"What?"
Honestly why could they talk like this even though they were enemies?
Even so, none of them wondered because in the world of Trinity Seven conversations in battle were commonplace.
Especially in the original work, Eiji remembered Arata often joking with his opponents in battle.
"I just want to ask... Do you know who destroyed the town below this place?"
"...!" Akio was surprised, she didn't expect Eiji to ask what she wanted to ask.
She was actually suspicious of Lilith's father. Don't tell me that guy is...
At this moment, Eiji's inner voice was also heard.
[This is what has been making Akio uneasy, right? Although I already know who destroyed that woman's hometown but at this point it's better to let her hear it from the person who did it directly.]
[After that I don't mind helping Akio to beat up my father-in-law again hard as long as it doesn't kill him because I have promised Lilith.]
Abyss Trinity held his chin as if trying to remember things that happened in the past.
He could sense the killing intent from Akio which made him look at her.
Abyss Trinity was amused and said while lifting Caina, "Ah... It's not my future son-in-law who wants to know. But you're the one who actually wanted to ask that, right? Spriggan."
While Lilith blushed at what her father said, and Eiji was happy that his father-in-law admitted it.
Akio who already knew the answer from Eiji's inner voice clenched her fist. That woman's expression now made Arata a little scared.
Only Lugh was watching the drama in front of her flatly.
"It's you, right? Why did you do it? Even though in the past we Spriggan protected you in this place, you..." Akio asked with a coldness that worried Lilith.
"You guessed it right. It was indeed me who did it. As for the reason... I was bored and interested in testing the Magic King Weapon in this world."
"Just because of that?"
"Yes, what else? Blowing up an entire town with people in it is quite interesting."
*Boom!*
Wasn't Akio or even Eiji who attacked Abyss Trinity after he finished speaking.
It was Lilith who shot her own father with dozens of anti-tank rifles floating in the air.
Shot after shot rained down on Abyss Trinity.
"You destroyed Akio's hometown and killed her mother. I don't have a father like you, you trash!"
Lilith insulted her own father and with anger and sadness on her face.
Akio who was about to cry was stunned to see this, she didn't expect Lilith to attack her own father for her.
Of course, Abyss Trinity was able to block all of Lilith's attacks with the nothingness in his body. What exploded was the ground around him.
Hearing what his daughter said, Abyss Trinity laughed.
"Hahahaha! I'm not a good person and a bad father. I am the Magic King! My existence only exists to destroy the world and make people suffer!"
"Lilith, I don't care what you think of me. Since you've defied me so far, I'll just force you by awakening your true self!"
"You are the key to my awakening."
Right after Abyss Trinity said that, he raised one of his arms. An enormous magic circle that actually covered the entire landscape of the Sky Library appeared.
At this moment, Lilith felt the Magic King Element within her react violently. An overwhelming force exploded from her body that made Arata and Akio panic.
"Lilith!"
However, Eiji was so calm that Abyss Trinity frowned. He wondered if that boy really liked his daughter? Why didn't he look worried at all?
What he had just done was activate the key inside Lilith's body! Once that was activated, Lilith...
No, Aeshma would appear and put Lilith's consciousness to sleep. She would become a tool that only listened to her father.
Sure enough, after Lilith was devoured by the Magic King Element and was seen again in everyone's eyes.
Eiji suddenly hit Arata's neck from behind until the boy fell to the ground and fainted.
"W-What are you doing to my master?" Sora who saw what Eiji did asked nervously.
"I just knocked him out. There's no way I'm letting any man other than me see Lilith's appearance right now."
Hearing what Eiji said. They were confused but then their gazes returned to Lilith and they finally understood.
Eiji was very possessive.
Still, what about Abyss Trinity? He was also a man even though he was Lilith's father... Is he not counted?
