.Trivia of the day #20: Lilith is the only character in the main cast who has their hair fashioned with drills

_______________

Asmodeus's eyes landed on the tall and bulky man, his muscles were as hard and as durable as the strongest metal on the planet.

However, his stat and lineage prove to show how insanely strong he was.

[Unique Brawler]

[A+ rank Fable]

[Race: Demi-God]

[Hercules]

"No way, is this Hercules?"

Asmodeus said to himself as he watch the man bow before him and Ophis.

Hercules looks at Ophis and then at Asmodeus, as he began talking in a dignified tone, and introduces himself.

"Greetings lord Asmodeus, please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Hercules, son of Zeus hero of the weak, and champion of Olympus."

Asmodeus look at Hercules confused as to why a Fable is here, he wanted to know why he was here, to begin with, but Lilith answer as such.

『I will answer that question later』

"Very well then, I await your response after the introduction is finished."

But before he could even greet Hercules, Ophis began to speak.

"Bulky pervert what do you want, can't you see I am busy!"

『Bulky pervert... I'm not a pervert, your words hurt me my queen』

"Whatever Bulky pervert, so answer me, why do you disturb me?"

『Achilles, Says he finish the task you set him out to do』

At these words, Asmodeus wants an answer now, first a greek hero, now a legend of Troy, and also a war hero whose name will never be forgotten."

"Interesting, very interesting, first got my attention now you have my curiosity."

"These fables' powers are truly exceptional."

Asmodeus said out loud as he glared at Hercules and thinks about the myth and legend Achilles."

Although one thing was for sure, he has a knight card, and now he wants to summon his fable servant to quench his curiosity.

Meanwhile, Hercules responds to Asmodeus.

"Your words are wasted on me, Lord Asmodeus."

Although yet again Asmodeus didn't get a chance to respond as Ophis said.

"I see so the Masochist returned with the thing I ask him to retrieve."

"Yes, my queen."

"Good I shall meet him soon, go and tell the masochist I am coming."

"As you wish my queen."

With those words said Hercules leaves the room and goes to meet Achilles, meanwhile, Ophis turn to Asmodeus as she said.

"Well, I am going as well, I hope you recover soon, bye-bye."

And like that Ophis also left the room.

However, Asmodeus was left in suspense to the introduction of the fables, but he still felt weak, and Nero's soft and plump body coated his entire body, as she used him as a body pillow just made him lose all motivation to move anywhere as the sensation was bliss, and a great method of healing for him.

So he said to himself.

"Well, im still recovering, I might as well, relax my mind further, anyways im going back to sleep."

And like that Asmodeus went back to sleep as he indulged in the comfort of Nero's soft body, however, he got up hours later, and decide to walk in the garden.

-- 6 hours later--

-- Rize garden--

"Finally some alone time, now then Lilith, I have a lot of questions, that I need answers to."

Spoke Asmodeus as he takes a walk outside, with Shublavara's brain still stationed in the container, he woke up in a room that had bright lights, however currently speaking it was nighttime.

Seeing that a beautiful lunar light shines beautifully on the surrounding area, Asmodeus enter Rize's extremely massive garden.

It had many flowers, some of which he has never heard of nor seen before, but then again this was a different dimension, so it was safe to say, expect the unexpected.

He took a long walk across the garden till he saw a white bench, he didn't waste any more time and decided to take a seat.

As he repeats himself once more.

"So are we going to discuss what happened?"

『Yes, I am well aware of that, so tell me what would you like me to explain first my liege』

Lilith asks in a happy voice seeing that her information and knowledge were needed once more especially since Asmodeus was in a weak state due to the effect of imori remnants that was still flowing within his body.

Asmodeus sighed slightly as he expresses his concerns and spoke to Lilith honestly.

"Normally Lilith as you should have already known, I would just siphon the information, directly from your mind, and process it, into my mind, however, my powers are still severely weakened for some reason, and just doing something as simple as mind-reading feels tiring, so can you tell me what is happening to my body?"

Ask Asmodeus as that was the first thing he wants to know about himself.

Lilith didn't waste any time as she respond to her lord's question without fail, as she says with an apologetic tone.

『My liege, if I may, please allow me to sincerely apologize for not being by your side when you needed me the most, during this time of conflict and defeat that you experienced, this entire situation is my fault, if I was just online I could have stopped you from fighting the greatest witch hunter in the age of the Gods, but I never took account that someone as prideful as the huntress Goddess would be here of all places』

"You talk as if you know Ekhidnanta."

"No, it would make sense, if I am correct you have served all other existing Demon Kings of Lust till now, haven't you Lilith?"

『Yes, you are indeed correct, that monster is a super-engineered human from the age of the Gods, she was born, raised, and trained in the Zenobia empire to be a super weapon created to exterminate witches and warlocks, her code name is the Anti one, Aka the Anti witch, a witch that exists to destroy its kind, rank 2nd in the Zenobia 10, and rank 2nd for the strongest which hunter to exist』

"Zenobia 10, who or what are the Zenobia 10?"

『As I said earlier, the Zenobia-10, or the Z10 for short are special units that were trained to exterminate monsters from the Excel race』

"In layman's terms, they are an elite version of your typical monster hunters?"

『Yes, that is correct』

"Very well, I understand."

『Of course, although you were just unlucky enough to have Ekhidnanta as your first enemy, that woman is truly different from the rest not only is she the second strongest, but her anti-magic, pairs up with the power her singularity name Imori also makes her extremely dangerous』

"Yeah, I have experienced it first hand."

『Most definitely, although the reason you are so weak is that she hit you with her Imori most powerful ability, known as Eden, it is a skill that all her to pour and duplicate all her anti-magic into her spores, and once it enters your body, it cuts off all your ability, and not only does it suck away all away your life force till you perish, it also traps you in a false reality that feels so real it's almost impossible to break out off without outside interference』

"..."

It was at these words that Asmodeus, that Asmodeus began to feel the same tingly sensation of an immaculate amount of comfort paired with his immense hate for the one called Ekhidnanta.

He grits his teeth, as his aura spikes up a bit, and said.

"So the bitch not only sealed me she also mind fuck me, she made me feel and think that I love humans, how dare her, this... this... this is an unforgivable and unforgettable violation, I swear when I get my hands on her I'm going to return the favor and place her through immense suffering that can even mind break a Demon lord, or a deity a thousand times over, no! A million times over, because death is too good for her, she needs to suffer!"

『And suffer she will, I also want to return the favor』

"Then it settles we need to become a lot stronger before we cross paths again, now with that out of the way, can you tell me why sorrow, comes to me."

『Akashina nature influence power might not work within Imori rose fields, however, it has one absolute condition no one can stop, whenever you are in danger, it will summon fort all Demon kings to assist you out of the situation, if that is not enough fables will be summoned fort as replacements』

"I see so that's why Hercules and Achilles appear, so did Ophis manage to win?"

『No, she didn't win, in the end, she had to run away, if it wasn't for Achilles being a good fable shield, and her ability to control plants, because it comes naturally to her, she would have lost, it's because of this that we manage to get Shublavara brain, from her, because when no one was looking I use Rize magic, to suck within this dimension』

"But how did you get everyone here without being noticed?"

『Luckily for you, Imori Eden was classified as something that was killing you, placing you between life and death, making Adaptive immortality, kick in, and counter the threat, your body adapted oddly』

"How oddly?"

『Human has an immune system, you now have a negation filtering system, in short, your body is slowly filtering the effects of Ekhidnanta powers』

"So I'm now immune to her negation effect."

『Something like that』

"Well it's better than nothing, but this information doesn't answer my question."

『Well, it's simple, with the effect of your new immunity, due to your new Nf-system, I took over your body, use my mana, instead of yours, and forcefully brought everyone here to this dimension, she is Rize home by the way, right after the body couldn't take the strain, due to being in a weak state, and so it collapses, and you being unconscious for six-day, you still have 2 more days before you reach back to full health』

"I see, well I must thank you, Lilith."

『I simply live to serve my liege』

"Well I still want to thank you, although I don't know how to thank you, either way, I will think of a proper reward soon, enough I think it's about time, I keep my end of the bargain and release Shublavara from her prison."

To be continued.
