Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

"World End. Meteorite of Earth and Light!" 

All the light in a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers gathered in a sphere above Yuro.

This sphere absorbed threads of blood from the Demon Lord along with his life force.

Less than a second after Yuro voiced his spell, a bloody meteorite, packed with golden light that behaved like flames, was formed.

Words could not describe the meteorite's size or the crushing pressure and might that released in every direction. 

Even those lesser demons in the city could see it from the ground, despite the immense distance to the battlefield. 

Fear appeared in the paralyzed Rank 4 Demons' eyes when they noticed their lord's most devastating attack. They had seen it before and knew that Yuro would lose control over it once launched.

The meteorite will eventually touch the ground, and the destructive power in it could level a considerable part of a continent, and the Rank 4 Demons were in the blast range.

Yuro no longer cared about the consequences of his action, and with eyes full of madness, he released a pulse from his palms and fired the meteorite.

Ezequiel saw a projectile the size of a small moon heading his way and felt how the spell had transformed the light around him into a viscous matter, making it impossible to escape. 

The only thing that appeared in the Neo-Demon eyes as he saw an attack that could destroy his body and soul right about to collide with him was killing intent.

"ROOOAAAARRR!" Ezequiel roared as he made his bloodline burst with all its power. His voice filled the Blood Rift's sky with lightning and thunder.

Cracks formed in the space around the Neo-Demon, and the light hindering his movement was obliterated.

That was the roar of a Primordial and even the laws had to back down in front of it.

The Neo-Demon activated his unique bloodline ability that combined the Law of Inner Force and Law of Strength.

"Nine Primordial Steps."

Ezequiel took a step forward and appeared less than a meter away from the moon size meteorite. Instantly, his body, soul, energy, and the amount of World Strength he was channeling, doubled in power.

His white eyes were bleeding as he pushed them to the limit to perceive the flaws in the spell. Then with every ounce of strength he had, he struck the meteorite with his six arms.

The meteorite that was moving hundreds of times faster than the speed of sound froze the moment those fists collided with it. 

Silence reigned for a second, and then an explosion that made the ears of lesser demons bleed was heard. It indeed sounded like the end of the world.

Complete and utter disbelief filled the soul of Yuro as he saw the colossal indentation that Ezequiel's fists created in his attack.

The Supreme Neo-Demon was not over yet, and he took another step forward that once again pushed every part of his existence to a higher level. His veins bulged, and many of them broke due to the immense pressure his body was withstanding. 

Ezequiel fired six more punches to the flaws in the meteorite and managed to pierce half of it. 

If he just had the Primordial Bloodline, the second step would have been the limit his body could resist, but he was a Neo-Demon with an Apocalypse Star made from a Tier 2 star and had Astral Origin that strengthened his flesh and bones.

He took another step and felt his muscles tearing apart and bones breaking. The pain was excruciating, but that did not matter to Ezequiel, and he just fired all of his power forward.

Yuro felt absolute terror as he saw his meteorite break in half and the Neo-Demon rise from it.

The two pieces began to crack, and soon, the world-end meteorite shattered into thousands of small fragments. 

Now that he was in the open, Yuro could see the majestic figure of the Neo-Demon. Ezequiel had so much energy and Abyss' World Strength inside him that he appeared a dark red evil sun in the sky, illuminating the Blood Rift.

'I need to run.' Yuro was terrified. The only thought in his mind right now was to run as fast as possible and never again get near the monster known as Evil.

Unfortunately for the Demon Lord, he was too hurt and had used all of his energy in that last attack. Yuro could not react to Ezequiel, who arrived in front of him like lightning and destroyed his chest and extremities with a single strike.

The only thing that remained from the Demon Lord's body was his head, and before the True Soul could escape the soul dimension, Ezequiel put a Sealing Rune in it. 

The Neo-Demon could hear screams of rage and despair from inside the Demon Lord's head, but he did not care and stored it into his spatial ring.

Only now, after defeating the Demon Count, did Ezequiel deactivated his Law Avatar and Doomsday Incarnation and analyzed the condition of his body.

'Other than my hearts, brain, and spinal cord, in whom I gathered most of my plasma to protect them, the rest of my vital organs, bones, and muscles are severely injured. I have almost no Astral Origin or Soul Origin left. The only good thing is that I can still draw World Strength and the energies from the surrounding into my body, which will help me recover faster. Remaining in the Blood Rift will be very dangerous, but another Demon Lord will take this city if I leave.'

Ezequiel thought for some time how to proceed, and in the end, he made the Nether Spirit Avatar leave his body and disappear into the sky.

The Neo-Demon lost a third of his strength, but the Nether Spirit Avatar's camouflage abilities were impressive due to his spiritual nature. Even the consciousness of a Rank 5 life form would find it hard to detect it.

'With this, I can remain in the city and take control of it until an emissary of a Demon Duke arrives without worrying about my life.'

Ezequiel broke the space near him and returned to the ground. The moment he landed, his body trembled, and he began to cough blood without control for almost twenty seconds.

Once he regained control over his body, he stared at the Fiendish Cyclop, who was looking at him from a distance, and spoke. 

"Come here."

Pilo was surprised by that order. Usually, when a demon was injured so severely, they would not allow anyone to get near them, but the monster told him to get closer. 

The Rank 4 Demon did not dare to disobey and ran until he was in front of Ezequiel.

'He is so severely wounded that he can barely control his body. Why do I still feel like I will die any second when I am in his presence?.' Pilo did not dare to look directly into the Neo-Demon eyes and lowered his head.

Ezequiel did not care about the thoughts in the demon's mind and just jumped to his shoulder.

"Go to the city."

The Fiendish Cyclop obeyed and immediately began to run forward. It only took a couple of minutes until they were both in the city's gates.

Ezequiel used the energy from his surroundings and World Strength to support his body, and he flew to the center of the city before opening his mouth.

The Law of Swallowing that was part of the Tier 2 star he sealed in his stomach formed a black hole in front of the Neo-Demon's mouth.

Swallowing force filled every corner of the city, and the lesser demons were pulled into the sky. They screamed, roared, and some even attempted to fight back, but it was hopeless, and in the end, they all ended up inside Ezequiel's stomach. 

After swallowing more than four thousand and three hundred lesser demons, Ezequiel felt his condition improved significantly, but it was not enough. 

He also devoured two of the paralyzed Rank 4 Demons, the ones with the better bloodline. 

'With this, I can stabilize my condition in less than a week and be able to display eighty percent of my strength. I should have recovered in half a month.' 

With his initial treatment over, Ezequiel turned to Pilo.

"You are now the second in command in this city. Tell the other Rank 4 Demons who their new lord is, and search for lesser demons to replenish the ones lost." Ezequiel did not bother with the demon response and headed to a grand castle in the center of the city.

The Fiendish Cyclop understood very well that he was insignificant for the monster known as Evil. The only reason for his title was that the new Demon Lord did not want to waste time speaking with the other Rank 4 Demons. 

Pilo could only sigh now that he was once again under the ruling of a Demon Lord. The next second he shook his head and started the task given to him.
