Chapter 620 Archdemon Vessel



-----

(Some Minutes Ago…)

As Blake left Eleanora to take down the two High Ranking Demon Cultists that showed up in their path, he quickly reached the last floor of the Demon Fortress while taking down any Warrior-class Demon he found.

The tribe chiefs of both Demon Tribes unified here were nowhere to be found. They should be as strong as Demon Generals, so it was very weird he hadn't found them anywhere. The Demon Cultists would had surely used them to fight him and stop him from advancing, yet he reached the top of the fortress without finding them…

Until he did.

The two of them were used as sacrifices, as their dead bodies, now dry as mummies were sitting over two demonic magic circles, which connected to an even larger one and a black sphere floating in midair.

Three Demon Cultists were there, smiling and laughing maliciously. Whatever they were conjuring, they managed to pull it out before Blake could reach them.

"Heheheh… W-We did it…!"

"We made it… in time… Ungh…"

"Now fear the burning flames of our hatred…!"

"We shall avenge… our lord, Vampire Emperor, Asmodeus!"

The Demonic Cultists roared as their lives slowly began to fade away. The black sphere in the middle of the air suddenly began emanating an enormous quantity of demonic energy, as the sound of a beating heart within started expanding all around.

BA-DUMP!

BA-DUMP!

BA-DUMP!

"You bastards, what did you summon to this world?!" Blake roared in fury, quickly rushing towards the sphere to stop it from hatching as he decided to create an enormous net using his Blood and Shadows to restrain it!

Crack… crack!

However, the sphere, or more like the "egg" started to crack its shell, and then, a blazing insectoid claw emerged out of it.

CRAAAASH!

"Unngh?!"

Blake quickly felt an enormous, overwhelming demonic presence coming from within the Black Egg, as he stepped back in a hurry while the net he made was burned into nothing.

FLUOOSH!

"HEHEH… HEHAHAHA…!"

CRAASH!

Another insectoid claw destroyed the shell, and then another and another, until the entire floating black egg, a Demonic Abyssal Egg, was shattered and its contents revealed.

It was a monstrous, four-meter-tall insectoid demon, with a big, fly-like head. Its difference compared to every other Insectoid Demon Blake had fought before was its red color and fire-like tattoos covering its body.

And its enormous, overwhelming aura. This thing wasn't even a Demon General, it was beyond that Realm…

"This thing's a Demon Lord? They spent the life of two Demon Generals plus how many sacrificed souls to summon this thing?! Why? Did they… predict I was coming here?" Blake wondered, looking at the monster engulf its entire body on flames.

"Heheheh… It has been a long while, Asmodeus."

However, the voice and the tone that this newborn Demon used against him was… something not normal. It wasn't a newborn demon. If it was, it would simply attack Asmodeus crazily and without restraint, yet this one was still standing there cautiously.

He easily guessed who it was after simply thinking about who he was confronting anyways. Blake wasn't stupid enough to not realize it.

"Beelzebub, I can't believe you're so desperate to get back on me that you would possess a small and pathetic vessel such as this." Blake laughed. "Were your pathetic minions not capable of creating something better for you?"

"Heh, as foulmouthed as ever!" Laughed Beelzebub. "Yet… Now, you're nothing but a pathetic little boy. Long is gone the tyrannical Vampire Emperor that once sealed us all before fighting Lucifer! This is my perfect opportunity to KILL you once and for all. I won't even let you reincarnate. I will devour and consume your soul and then all of these children! Ahh, I am so hungry already I could eat them all right now!"

Blake quickly began readying his weapons and items, sweating a bit due to the immense amount of heat that Beelzebub was producing.

"So you've been doing this just to get to me?!" Blake asked.

"Not really, I originally planned to monopolize this world all for myself and win the invasion race against the other Archdemons buuut, YOU just had to show up and slowly begin to ruin my plans." Beelzebub laughed, suddenly conjuring a dozen fireballs around him. "You know? I am still sealed after all of this damn time, and it has been a real pain in the ass to get this all done for you to begin showing up and ruining everything… How about you just disappear? [Maximus Infernos]"

FLUOOOOSH!

The fireballs converged into a massive spiraling infernal tornado of demon flames of incredibly high power and quality, consuming Blake, and everything around him! The entire Demonic Fortress started burning right after that!

BOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!

"Hoh? Did that do it? Hey, are you there?" Laughed Beelzebub. "I know that flames are usually my kin's weakness, so I decided to specifically make a powerful Insectoid body that was immune to fire and that could wield it wonderfully. I am also aware Vampires are weak to fire."

"Oh, yeah?"

"Huh?!"

Beelzebub was surprised when he heard Blake's voice, and when he saw his body was just fine, just slightly burned here and there, yet he was more than alright, he was excellent.

"W-What…?! How come you became immune to fire?!" Beelzebub panicked.

"Just like the last time I beat you; I am simply one step ahead of you." Blake dropped a bottle into the floor, as it shattered into pieces. "And I've got some amazing sponsors here that just happen to hate you to death."

[You have consumed the [Elixir of Flames (Mythic Grade)]!]

[Your body is now overflowing with the power of Fire-Attribute Divine Spiritual Energy, Fire Attribute Ki, and Fire Attribute Mana!]

[Your entire body has been strengthened; all of your stats have increased.]

[Your Fire Attribute Runes have increased by over a thousand.]

[Additionally, for the next 10 Minutes, you can absorb 50% of the Fire Attribute Damage you take as HP and MP and resist the damage of another 20% of it.]

[The [Holy Spirit of Fire] praises you for your patience, as you've finally found the perfect timing for the item he has gifted to you!]

"W-What?!" Beelzebub was perplexed. "Hah! No matter, I'll have to just punch you and burn you harder! RAAAAAAHHHH!!!"

"Come!" Blake provoked the Archdemon, as both clashed, generating enormous shockwaves all around the skies!

CLAAAAAAASH!!!
