Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Slaughter and changes in the power hierarchy were something that happened every minute in Abyss. Some were insignificant in the grand scale of things like the death of millions of lesser demons, while others had more profound repercussions like the rise of a new Demon Lord.

The fight in the Blood Rift and the demise of Yuro was important enough to involve the Demon Dukes.

A battle was occurring in The Forgotten Lands, but this one drew much less attention than the one that saw the birth of the Demon Lord known as Evil. 

A fifty thousand meters white dragon with wings made of lightning and fire was fighting in the sky against a Three-Headed Demon Hound, Infernal Hawk, and Flesh Golem.

The three creatures were Rank 4 Demons, and their size did not fall short of the white dragon. Their demonic heritage granted them an enhancement in battle power equal to a King Bloodline, but the fight had started less than a minute ago, and they were all already full of injuries. 

The white dragon was incredibly fast and agile, and even when the demons' attacks landed, they could barely harm the dragon scales.

A cold smile appeared in the white dragon as he focused on the Three-Headed Demon Hound, making terror appear in the heart of this one. The dragon flapped his wings, and he became a lightning bolt, arriving in front of the Rank 4 Demon instantly.

The Three-Headed Demon Hound attempted to dodge, but he was too slow. The white dragon tore one of his heads with his mouth before sending him flying away with a claw strike. 

The Infernal Hawk and Flesh Golem took the opportunity while the white dragon beat their comrade to launch their attacks. 

The claws of the Infernal Hawk were covered in black flames as he flashed to the dragon's back while the Flesh Golem fired his massive fist to his ribs.

The Rank 4 Demons had charged all their energy in those attacks, and the destructive power in them was immense. Unfortunately for the demons, they were too slow.

Before the Infernal Hawk could reach his target, the white dragon's tail transformed into a lightning whip that hit him in the chest, breaking his ribs and making the demon puke blood.

The Flesh Golem managed to land his fist, but although it made the white dragon's body tremble a little, it barely left a mark.

'How can his body be so sturdy? It is like if I am hitting a solid piece of Rank 4 demon metal.' The Rank 4 Demon did not have time to wonder about the white dragon's body's resilience since his instincts began to scream the next instant. 

The white dragon body adopted a serpentine form with wings shaped like tentacles, and he twisted around the Rank 4 Demon, trapping him.

The dragon was too fast, and the Flesh Golem could not free himself no matter how hard he tried. 

The last thing the demon saw was how the white dragon opened his mouth and released dragon breath made of fire and lightning that pulverized his head and True Soul.

After destroying the head, the white dragon swallowed the rest of the Flesh Golem before looking at the other two Rank 4 Demon who did not dare to get close to him.

The duo was burning with rage as they saw the mockery in the eyes of the white dragon.

The Three-Headed Demon Hound was the most furious of all. The white dragon attacked his city. The other two Rank 4 Demon were underlings he paid an immense price to obtain. He was sure they would prevail at first, but it was clear to him by now that the white dragon was too strong.

"Who are you, and why did you attack my city?. I serve under Count Hiro, and if something happens to me, there will be dire consequences."

When the white dragon heard that, instead of fear, what appeared in his eyes was disdain.

"Trying to threaten me with your leader is beyond stupid. After I kill you, I will offer my services to that Count. What do you think his response will be?"

A nasty expression appeared in the Three-Headed Demon Hound since he knew any Demon Lord would be more than happy to have someone as strong as this white dragon under them. As for avenging a fallen soldier. They were demons, and none of them genuinely care for the others. 

"I must say, I am very disappointed. I thought Rank 4 Demons would have more guts and honor their title of chaotic killing machines. However, I only see two cowards in front of me."

When the white dragon saw how his words awoke the chaotic nature of the Infernal Hawk and Three-Headed Demon Hound, a smile appeared on his face. He was having fun testing his new powers and wanted the opponents to fight back, and not just run.

Unfortunately for the white dragon, he heard a robotic voice that spoiled his fun.

"White Flame, enough games. Bring me the city's leader and kill the other."

The origin of that voice was an individual in the center of the Three-Headed Demon Hound's city. A cold blue flame hid that person's body, so it was impossible to distinguish the gender.

The Rank 4 Demons did not have time to inspect that person since the white dragon appeared next to them the instant the person finished speaking, and his energy was almost three times greater. 

The fights lasted less than ten seconds after that. The white dragon devoured the Infernal Hawk and destroyed the Three-Headed Demon Hound's heart before surrounding his body with lightning so the True Soul could not escape.

Kylo returned to his humanoid form after deactivating his Law Avatar. He broke space and returned to the ground, carrying the Rank 4 Demon's broken body before approaching the flaming figure and bowing.

"Sorry for the delay, my Lady. I wanted to have a better sense of the demons' power, but this group was too weak."

The person covered in that cold fire was Sophia. The Neo-Demon had chosen to hide her body since she knew demons were lustful creatures, and if a Demon Lord took fancy of her, it would carry a lot of problems. 

"The trio was weak. None of them had reached the Third Origin Cycle, and they were incapable of working together. Your bloodline and True Doomsday Body put your battle power at the absolute peak of Rank 4, but you should not relax. Like my husband always says, we can never underestimate our enemies, or one day we will pay a great price." 

"I understand, my Lady. I will forever remember those words." Kylo had a solemn expression as he spoke those words. Zatiel's words were sacred for him, just like they were for the rest of the Neo-Demon race.

Sophia nodded and focused on the Rank 4 Demon. She sent her consciousness into the Three-Headed Demon Hound's soul dimension and consumed his True Soul with the Law of Devouring. 

All the Rank 4 Demon's memories appeared in her mind after she finished with him, and she shared that information with Kylo.

"We will make this city our headquarters. You will be the leader, and I will remain in the darkness, hidden from the rest of the world. I will only act when there is a threat you cannot handle. We will have around a week before an emissary from a Demon Lord comes and demands we join them. During that time, we will gather as much knowledge as we can. Do you want to suggest something?" Sophia treated the kobold like a comrade and not a servant. The only reason she took the lead was that she was stronger and had proven her cunning mind.

Kylo shook his head and did not say anything since he felt that Sophia's plan covered everything. 

They were ready to start working when a message reached them through their Chaotic-Cores.

"I have sealed a Demon Count and taken control over a city. My Nether Spirit Avatar is heading to The Forgotten Lands and will remain with you two while I recover. The avatar can express Pseudo-Rank 5 battle power, but it would be best if he doesn't have to fight."

Ezequiel's message ended there, but there was amazement in the eyes of the duo. 

They had entered Abyss together, but while they had just taken control of a small city and defeated a few weak demons, the Supreme Neo-Demon had captured a Rank 5 Demon Lord alive.

"Lord Invictus is as impressive as ever. He is truly worthy of being the Will of the Ancestor." Kylo's eyes shone with respect and admiration.

"Yes, he is. I still remember when he was just a little boy that followed Zatiel everywhere, and now he is a mighty monster. We cannot remain behind. Let's begin to work."
