The Demigods though shocked by an existence like the sinister snake, did not understand why it was rebelling against the mohawk devil to protect Wyatt. Belphegor too shared the same concern. He was not surprised that the snake rebelled against him after all, he did kill its previous master it was already surprising that the snake was stuck around and would occasionally come in hand. But what was more surprising was that the sinister snake stood up against him to protect Wyatt. 

This did not make any sense to Belphegor. Since the only time the snake dared to fight against him was when he killed its previous master. But after being brutally beaten it escaped, grew stronger and bigger. Then the sinister snake returned to take revenge but instead of doing that, it stuck around in its master’s old abode. 

“You stupid mutt get out of the way before I get angry,” Belphegor yelled at Baem for rebelling against him but did not dare to attack it. It clearly showed that Belphegor’s Wolrdhog incarnation was not confident about subduing the snake. 

The reason Belphegor called the sinister snake a mutt was that any monster or demon that manages to advance to the devil realm would have the realm-appropriate spirituality however for some unknown reason that did not seem to be true in Baem’s case. Despite growing stronger than regular devils its spirituality remained stunted to that of a six-year-old human child. 

Nonetheless, the snake was very intuitive and a better judge of timing, location, and people than most of the beings Belphegor had known in a lifetime. This was why he did not kill it after killings the previous master and tried to subdue it on numerous occasions but failed as it surprisingly was very loyal to its late master it would rather die than take a new master. However, Belphegor was a crafty devil he not only got the snake to give up on taking revenge for its late master but also occasionally do his bidding.

“Hiss,” Beam did not back down, instead it doubled down on its original stance by threateningly flicking its forked tongue at Belphegor. 

Noticing that the snake would not back down and continued to insist on protecting Wyatt, Belphegor’s fiery brows danced as they grow narrow forming a deep frown on his face. But then his brows eased as an army of demons started to pour out of the portal covering the sky of the city led by a female humanoid devil. 

“Father, I can’t believe you were reduced to such a state in this inferior realm. Even little Beam has lost respect for you,” the 6.5 feet tall female humanoid devil said walking next to the 150-meter tall. 

As soon as the demon army started to pour into the southern capital, even before the demons could descend by the city each of them was shot down by the thousands of cannons on the 250 turrets spread across the city. Belphegor and his daughter did not seem to care about the death of the demons. 

Sensing the terrifying presence of the new humanoid devil the demigods started to panic, handling the mohawk devil was already proving to be difficult now there was another one of them, not to mention they were still not clear whose side the sinister snake stood. Will it continue its rebellion against the Mohawk devil or return to the devil’s side? 

“Chief Captain, the female devil, why does its energy signature give off the signs of a human?” the captain of the 12th team asked the captain of team one as he looked at the voluptuous yet slender red-skinned body of the female body. After ascending to the demigod realm and forming his divinity he thought that he had outgrown the carnal urges of his mortal origin but his body’s reaction to the female devil’s presence proved him wrong. 

He did not understand how could he feel such a way towards a devil, even though she had human features that looked a lot like humans her armored lizard tail, horns, bat wings, and the demonic inscription inscribed on her red skin should be a turn-off but just as he thought these things he felt the urges in his body growing. He wondered if it was just him or if the other demigods felt the same about the female devil as he obsessively ogled her tempting body and inscribed her soul energy signature onto his soul. But then he noticed that the female devil’s soul energy signature resembled very closely to that of a human.

“That devil is called Corpse Devil. So if I were to guess it should have been born using the corpse of a powerful human senior. Usually, they are not much stronger than the SSS-rank corpse puppets, but this one seems different so don’t let your guards down,” the captain of team one explained. Corpse devils were common as devils created them by refining the corpse of fallen powerhouses. However, the rate of successfully refining a corpse devil was slim to none. 

Learning that the female devil was not a true devil but a devil-rank corpse puppet that was fortunate enough to form its spirituality and become a Corpse Devil the captain of team twelve felt disgusted with himself for feeling such way toward a corpse. Then shook his head in dismay feeling that with such a mind he can forget achieving transcendence in this lifetime. 

“Agony, that damned snake has never respected me to begin with, if not for you I would have killed it long ago. Just get it to stop interfering in my hunt,” Belphegor said pointing at Baem who had its huge body coiled into a dome protecting Wyatt in it. 

Listening to her father Agony turned to look at Baem with a frown, as she found her pet snake’s action puzzling. However, she heeded her father’s words and ordered, “Little Baem, don’t be naughty. Don’t interfere with Father’s hunt.”
