Chapter 549: New Transaction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Auriel lay on Roy’s right shoulder, he could clearly feel a sense of despair continuously emanating from her soul. Through her contact with him, his divine spark absorbed this despair, causing the power of his authority to increase slowly.

During this process, Auriel also absorbed the Chaos power in Roy to suppress her Void power and prevent her remaining upper body from completely undergoing Voidization.

Roy could feel that Auriel’s despair was mainly for her companions and the High Heavens, not for her life. Although her mind was already blurry, the instinctive disgust and hostility of the creatures of the material world toward the Void gave her the instinct to survive.

This was why Lilith had suggested that he sign a symbiotic contract with Auriel. Auriel needed Roy’s Chaos power, and Roy needed Auriel’s despair. A wonderful cycle formed between them.

To Roy, Auriel was equivalent to a pendant on him. This pendant on his shoulder felt like an eagle pet. Although this eagle’s wings were a little big and strange, it didn’t affect his activities, so he felt that it was nothing after getting used to it.

What Roy was most curious about was why Auriel’s wings had become like this. Every feather had an eye. Even for a fallen angel, this situation was a little beyond his imagination.

Lilith saw his doubt and explained without waiting for him to ask, “I think this should be the truest portrayal of her heart during the transformation. After staying in the dark environment of the Void for nearly ten thousand years, she probably yearns for eyes that can see things…”

“Indeed. So not only did her wings mutate, but even her face has a compound eye structure…” Roy said. “Although I know that this is a mutation caused by the influence of Void power, it’s really… I wonder what Tyrael’s expression will be when he sees her like this.”

“Okay, these are my rewards for obtaining Chaos power from you. Are you satisfied?” Lilith asked.

Roy nodded. How could he not be satisfied with controllable Void power and an angel of despair pendant that could enhance the power of his authority?

The Red Sea Egg returned to its seed state under Lilith’s control, and she flipped her hand and stored it in an alternate space. “You still have Tyrael imprisoned. What do you plan to do with him?

“Can’t you see his situation in the River of Time?” Roy asked curiously.

“Of course I can, but you seem to have several ideas about how to deal with him, and the probability of each is the same!” Lilith said. “So I can’t be sure of your final plan.”

“So, which one is the best outcome in the future situations you saw?” Roy asked.

“Leave him in this world and let him protect the nephalem. This should be the best outcome for you!” Lilith didn’t hide anything and spoke directly. “If you bring him out of this world, there’s a high chance that he’ll escape in the future. At that time, he will return to Eden and attract stronger enemies for you… On the contrary, if you leave him in this world, with his feelings for the nephalem, he can very well replace Trag’Oul’s position and become the guardian of this world. You can rest assured and leave your Dark Messiah child here for him to take care of…’

‘ Roy didn’t say anything but looked at Lilith speechlessly.

As mentioned earlier, talking to a seer was sometimes very painful. If the seer chose not to tell you anything in order not to affect the future and spoke mystifyingly, it would be a very constipating feeling. Similarly, if the seer told you everything, you would feel as though they had seen through everything about you.

Roy hadn’t told anyone about his plans for Sareth, including Julia and Benia. But with Lilith, she could see everything he wanted to do through observing the River of Time.

Perhaps it was precisely because she saw his plan to retain Sanctuary in the future that she had no hostility toward him. As the mother of the nephalem, she also didn’t want to see Sanctuary destroyed. On this point, Lilith and Roy had the same goal.

Roy wasn’t too sure about this before, but he had confirmed it now.

He was actually a little glad that he and Lilith were not enemies. Otherwise, it would have been quite a headache to fight against such a seer.

“This is the return on our transaction for the time being!” Lilith said. “Next, I will begin to counterattack the Burning Hells. Although the seven demon kings joined forces to sneak attack me and severely injured me once, I also took this opportunity to plant Void contamination on them. This Void contamination can be dispelled because it has no source, but it will take some time. In other words, the seven demon kings can only stay in their territories in the Burning Hells and focus on dispelling the Void contamination. This is the best opportunity to eliminate them.”

“Now, you have two choices!” Lilith raised a finger. “The first choice is to remain neutral and not appear. Even if Mephisto and the others seek help from you, pretend that you don’t hear them. I’ll do the matter of conquering the Burning Hells alone.”

Roy turned to look at Auriel on his shoulder and asked, “Are you confident?”

“Yes, but my losses will be relatively great!” Lilith nodded. “The nephalem will suffer heavy casualties. Although my Blood Sea can preserve their souls, a considerable portion will still dissipate. I may also be severely injured because of this, and I may even be banished into the Void again.”

Lilith continued, “If you choose this option, then our transaction will end here. As a reward for maintaining your neutrality, I will allow you to keep the Dark

Messiah in this world, but you must be expelled from this world in the end! And you can never return in the future.”

“What’s the second choice?” Roy asked.

“The second choice is naturally to stand on my side and bring your army to attack the Burning Hells with me! Our transaction will continue,” Lilith said. “But this way, you will become the enemy of Mephisto and the others. If they are expelled back to the Abyss, they will fight you forever until one of you dies.”

“What’s the reward for continuing our transaction?” Roy asked after thinking about it.

“The demons of the Burning Hells must be expelled. Similarly, the world-soul titan Trae’Oul hidinz in the cracks must be expelled!” Lilith said. “I can help you find Trag’Oul and let you obtain the soul of a world-soul titan. This is the first reward. As for the second reward..

At this point, a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on Lilith’s face. “The second reward is to tell you about the promotion path to Deadly Sin Demon King… ”

“What?!” Roy was shocked when he heard this, but then he suddenly understood. “You… plan to become a Deadly Sin Demon King after destroying the Burning Hells?”

“To be precise, it’s returning! Returning to the Deadly Sin level!” Lilith said. “I was originally a Deadly Sin-level demon king! ”

“Let me guess. Is it related to your main body?” Roy vaguely understood. “Are you planning to… embark on a journey to the Void?”

But Lilith didn’t answer this question directly. She only said, “How is it? Have you thought about it? Which choice will you make?”

“Is there a need to choose?” Roy shook his head. “I know very well that even if I remain neutral in the war, it’s still a betrayal to Mephisto. After all, he was the one who invited me into this world… But I’m not his puppet, nor am I his brother. What I do is my business, and I choose the side with the greater benefits!”

Lilith nodded approvingly. “Very good. Choosing the side with the greatest benefits suits the character of demons. So, are you choosing the second option?”

“The second option!” Roy nodded with certainty.

“Then, it’s a deal!” Lilith stretched out her hand, shook Roy’s, and made another verbal promise. Because of the first successful transaction with tacit understanding, the two of them didn’t sign any contract this time either.

In fact, between demon kings, they rarely signed clear contracts. After all, they were all experienced players. Who didn’t know that there were loopholes to exploit in contracts? Just like Roy, he didn’t sign any contracts with Mephisto and the others. They were just following their respective interests.

To Roy, if he stood on Mephisto’s side, he could also get Mephisto and the others to help him obtain Trag’Oul’s world-soul. But Lilith had information about the Deadly Sin level, which he could simply not reject.

It was just a verbal promise, so there was naturally the possibility of reneging. Roy couldn’t guarantee that Lilith would definitely fulfill her promise. But compared to Mephisto and the other cunning old fellows, Lilith, this demon who had been pursuing her goal for two hundred million years, made Roy more willing to trust…

After reaching an agreement, Lilith stood on the Blood Sea, and a red light appeared in her palms. She spread her hands and looked down at the Blood Sea under her feet. The powerful blood power condensed into countless blood-red petals and began to dance in the sky above the Blood Sea. Under the agitation of the petals, humanoid bodies made of blood began to emerge from the Blood

Sea one after another.

These were all the nephalem who had died in the explosion earlier. Lilith’s Blood Sea had preserved the souls of most of the nephalem who had died in battle. As their creator, she had reconstructed the bodies of these nephalem with the power of the Blood Sea and injected their souls.

She completed a complete resurrection…

Seeing this scene, Roy was a little shocked. Although he knew that it might be because the nephalem had Lilith’s bloodline that the Blood Sea could resurrect them, he had to say that the nephalem could really become powerful tools of war in her hands.

Lilith probably loved and hated the nephalem, but there might be more love…

After Lilith reconstructed her army, Roy waved his hand and called Rafaro down. At the same time, he opened a portal on the battlefield and fetched Julia and Benia from the Frozen Sea.

Just like that, an army of nephalem and Abyss demons was born, and their next goal was…

The Burning Hells!
