Chapter 559: That Friendship Ended A While Ago

After his talk with Belzeebub, Thirteen immediately returned to Rocky's Mobile Fortress.

Right now, the three Earth Dragons might be in grave danger, so he prioritized telling them to retreat first before they got entangled with the Monster who was only hiding its true strength.

Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen yet, and the three Earth Dragons received Thirteen's warning in time.

The three of them immediately retreated and regrouped with Rocky, who had already recovered the bolts that Thirteen had fired at the monster during their first battle.

"A Peak Majin King," Rogg frowned. "Zion, this battle might be more difficult than we initially expected."

"I agree," Thirteen replied. "If not for the fact that I received credible information that Orochi had developed the habit of hiding its true Rank when fighting monsters of the same rank, we might have been taken by complete surprise."

"What do we do?" Endi inquired. "Do we still fight it?"

"Let's fight it," Brazzom commented. "Since we were promised that we wouldn't die in this encounter, there is no harm in trying to fight it, no? It's been a while since I fought a strong opponent. Truth be told, I am worried that our strength might have stagnated because of guarding that Gate."

Rogg nodded. "Brazzom is right. Not fighting this battle will be disadvantageous to us. Also, it might allow us to push ourselves to the limit and see the possibility of evolving once more."

Endi and Brazzom looked at their leader with serious expressions on their faces.

The three of them believed that they had reached the end of their line and had no more room for improvement.

But this was indeed an opportunity to see if they could take that step into breaking through to the next Rank, which they initially thought was no longer possible.

Endi was feeling anxious earlier, but now, she regained her composure after realizing that this was also an opportunity.

They already have insurance from the Laplace Demon, who promised that they would be forcefully sent back to Pangea if they were about to receive a killing blow.

"So, what's the plan?" Endi asked Thirteen. "Right now, the Majin King's strength is still unstable. If we give it a few days to recover, we will be at a disadvantage. It's better to strike now while we still have the chance."

"I agree with Endi," Rogg said. "We need to strike now."

Thirteen nodded. "Understood. But give me an hour. When I return, we will confront the Majin King before it regains its full strength."

"We're friends right?!"

"That friendship ended a while ago."

The other members of the Order of the Apocalypse couldn't help but chuckle because they found this drama quite amusing.

They were very interested in seeing how the battle against the Majin King would unfold, so they asked Metatron to let them see it live using his power.

Metatron agreed because he also wanted the members of the Apocalypse to see Thirteen in action.

Perhaps, if they see his qualities, they might open up to him, giving the teenage boy some opportunities to get close to them.

Camazotz wailed and begged, but Thirteen remained indifferent.

When the young man finally left the Domain of the Apocalypse, Camazotz felt as if he had become an abandoned puppy.

"Metatron! Send me there right now!" Camazotz shouted.

"Sure," Metatron replied and kicked the Death Bat's bum, sending it flying toward a dimensional gate, which led directly inside Rocky's Mobile Fortress.

Kamrusepa, who watched the drama from beginning to end, couldn't help but giggle. Everything truly went according to Thirteen's plan.

Metatron then snapped his fingers, creating a projection that was as large as a movie screen, allowing the members of the Order of the Apocalypse to watch everything comfortably.

They all looked at the teenage boy staring down at the Death Bat, who was hugging his leg with disdain.

"This kid sure knows how to act," Beelzebub commented as he drank the wine from his glass.

His gaze focused on the teenage boy, who could even make a Majin Prince like Camazotz beg for forgiveness, which was something that not many could see in their lifetime.

Even Erica, Sherry, Ratatoskr, Zed, and the Three Earth Dragons couldn't help but look at Zion Leventis in shock.

How could they not be shocked when they realized that the Demi-human Bat that was currently hugging the teenage boy's leg was actually a Majin Prince, who could easily pinch the human boy to his death?
