Chapter 266: Public humiliation, villain mentality collapses!
"B-Belphegor-dono, you're really alive again!"
"Earlier you suddenly exploded and your limbs scattered. That boy did it!"
"Even if you're a representative of the Moderate Faction, killing the Council leader is an unforgivable crime! Belphegor-dono, let's kill–"
"You guys, shut up!"
Belphegor unleashed his dark and terrifying aura; not only to silence his followers, but also to intimidate everyone, especially the young man standing right in front of him!
The atmosphere in front of the castle door became tense and tense, the soldiers guarding the castle did not even dare to make a sound. Only Balflear was silent because he wanted to confirm something by observing the confrontation that would occur between the two.
"I know you. The young man who killed Zolgear, your name is Eiji Seiya, right? You... You who killed and brought me back to life?" Not only his aura, but Belphegor's voice also sounded sinister as he said that.
This was the first time he was treated like this and felt humiliated of course.
Still, if Eiji Seiya really had the ability to bring someone back to life.
That kind of person...
"That's right, I did it. You didn't hear the reason because you died before I said it. But let me say it again."
"Belphegor, right?" Eiji walked closer and closer, even though Belphegor was tall, over 200 cm. Every step he took made an extremely heavy pressure press on Belphegor's body ? making the old demon who had long led the Demon Council for thousands of years kneel in front of the young man who was of the Moderate Faction ? and it was still witnessed by many people!
...! G-Gravity magic? No, it's just ordinary pressure, but this power...! Kill, this guy is too dangerous, he must be killed...!
The expression behind Belphegor's skull mask was extremely ugly and slightly flushed because this humiliation was too much! Even after he tried to bring out all his demonic aura to counter the pressure Eiji was releasing, Belphegor was still incapable of being able to do so.
Belphegor's followers wanted to help Belphegor of course, the soldiers of the Demon Lord Faction also wanted to stop the two. Except for the girls in Eiji's group, the pressure Eiji exuded made it difficult for them to move!
Raising his head as his hands and knees touched the floor that looked broken like cobwebs, Belphegor saw Eiji looking down on him with his hands in his pockets.
This posture added more humiliation to Belphegor.
"You... Stop, do you know who I am? I am Belphegor, the leader of the Demon Council who assists His Majesty Leohart in the politics of the Demon Realm! If you attack me like this?"
Again, in front of everyone's eyes, before Belphegor could say anything... His body exploded into a mist of blood.
"Fool." Eiji said and casually snapped his fingers.
Instantly, Belphegor came to life again. He stared at Eiji with horror, anger, and every other negative emotion that made him roar.
"Eiji Seiya! I said stop! Aren't you worried about your actions getting the Moderate Faction into trouble?!... It's not too late for you to apologize before I?"
"You don't seem to understand the difference between me and the others... Do you think I seem to care about your threats? You piss me off when your dog eyes stare at my woman."
"At first I just wanted to give you a little punishment, but it seems that this punishment is still not enough..."
"Let's add more until you get smart."
"....." Just as Belphegor was about to open his mouth.
*Bang!*
Belphegor exploded into a mist of blood for the third time and came back to life. Although he was relieved to be revived, that didn't mean he didn't feel pain when his body was blown up.
Others except Eiji didn't know, but Belphegor's expression behind his mask was currently distorted as if he was crazy. He was scared, but his anger still blinded him.
"Bastard... Eiji Seiya, you?"
*Bang!*
"Ahh! I'll?"
*Bang!*
"Aghhh! I'm Belphegor, how dare you?"
*Bang!*
"What are you guys looking at? Help me!"
"It's useless. None of them can help you." Eiji said and continued.
*Bang!*
"Fuck! Fuck you!"
*Bang!*
"I-I..."
*Bang!*
"Wait a minute..."
*Bang!*
"How can you keep doing that?!"
"Oh?" Eiji looked at Belphegor with amusement, "You mean this magic? It's called Ingall. With this magic, I can kill people and bring them back to life as long as their death hasn't lasted more than three seconds."
Belphegor was relieved that Eiji gave him time to breathe, he did not expect the young man to be willing to explain how his magic worked. But still, hearing the explanation of his magic...
Isn't that too cheating?
What kind of crazy magic is that?! This is the first time all the demons including the demons who have lived for thousands of years have heard of this kind of magic!
The girls in the group were amazed and looked at Eiji who was bullying Belphegor proudly. It was like seeing a husband defending his wife. After all Eiji did it for their sake because Belphegor dared to stare at them with such a look, from his gaze, they knew the old man wanted their bodies.
This was not just a lustful gaze, but had the intention of plotting against them!
[Rias: Disgusting! If Eiji doesn't make a move, I actually want to kill the person named Belphegor with my own hands.]
[Sona: Although I know it will create problems, why not? It's not like we can't conquer the entire Demon Realm with our group.]
[Akeno: Fufu, this tournament is unnecessary. This Belphegor says he's the leader of the Demon Council, now I understand why Eiji is so disgusted whenever talking about this group.]
[Akeno: They really need to be eliminated from the Demon Realm~]
[Tsubaki: +1]
[Kurumi: +1]
[Maria: +1]
[Mio: I... +1]
[Utaha: I don't know what happened, but +1]
[Mai: +1]
[Asia: Don't kill innocent people, but if they're guilty +1]
[Lala ?: Me too~! +1]
[Sheila: ...What's going on? Wait a minute! All of you, please calm down!]
The group chat was going crazy at the moment. Sheila was trying to calm down the girls who wanted to dominate Demon Realm with violence.
Sheila had no doubt the girls in the chat group could do it or not, but with Eiji behind them. She knew it was just a matter of opening her mouth and pleading sweetly with Eiji!
That damn Belphegor, he almost dragged everyone living in Demon Realm because of his dick!
"I can also do it as many times as I want. In short, no limit." Eiji said to Belphegor who was still kneeling in front of him. There was a faint smile on his face as he explained about his terrifying magic.
"....."
"So Belphegor-kun, have you learned to be smart?"
"....." Belphegor was silent. But it didn't take long for him to bow his head to Eiji in front of everyone. His hands were clenched with several veins protruding ? obviously, he was reluctant to do this, but still did it because of more than this. If he continued to fight Eiji here, he would get even more humiliation in front of everyone watching.
What's more - they were at the entrance of Leohart's castle!
A little blood flowed from Belphegor's mouth, he was actually vomiting blood... Not because of the wounds on his body as he was 100% healed every time Eiji revived him, but because of his emotions which were currently very turbulent, causing blood to rise up his throat.
"Eiji-dono, forgive my rudeness earlier. I was completely blind, I didn't know those girls were your women..."
"And?" Eiji asked as if he wanted Belphegor to humble himself more. If not, you know what happens next... Eiji could do it all day and Belphegor did not want to test this.
Isn't it just a face? Belphegor before meeting Eiji must have never thought of thinking about this.
"This matter is also entirely my fault. I was the one who provoked the Moderate Faction representative with my impoliteness. So there is no need to magnify this matter, I hope Eiji-dono is willing to forgive me..."
The face behind Belphegor's mask turned pale after saying all that. Belphegor's followers gulped, they originally wanted to make this matter bigger because it was a good opportunity to attack the Moderate Faction. ?But their own leader said this, what can they do?
Balflear who saw the incredible scene where Belphegor knelt down and apologized for his mistake could not help but smile. He clenched his fists, and tried to hold back his laughter. By the way, he could hear the laughter of Leohart who seemed to be watching the scene from inside the castle.
Balflear could hear it because he had good hearing. But for a demon of Belphegor's level, how could he not also hear Leohart's laughter from inside? More blood dripped from behind Belphegor's skull.
He was vomiting blood again.
Eiji nodded, he retracted all the Reiatsu he released into his body. The pressure as heavy as the mountain that was previously on Belphegor disappeared, the same thing, but not as heavy as Belphegor felt happened to the people watching ? they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Belphegor-kun, everyone can make mistakes. I hope you don't upset me again in the future."
Belphegor gritted his teeth, he got up and stood up. But unlike before where there was an arrogant air around him, he stood in front of Eiji with a humble posture.
If they didn't see it for themselves, they couldn't believe this was Lord Belphegor who had been the leader of the Demon Council for thousands of years.
"I understand, Eiji-dono. You don't need to worry. Shall I go then?"
"Go."
Belphegor hurriedly turned around and entered into the castle with his followers, he wanted to go immediately to the room that had been prepared for him.
What he said about not upsetting Eiji again in the future, no one knew if he really did. ?Swallowing all that humiliation.
However, Eiji knew Belphegor would not. He would most likely take revenge. Then why did he let him live? Actually, not really. In the near future, Belphegor would die because of what he had implanted into his body. No one would realize it when he did it. It was his own Reiatsu after all.
Just because in the carriage Eiji had checked the changed future again, he decided to do this because Laila seemed like quite a troublesome woman.
[By the way those girls didn't notice it, right? They didn't see it up close when I blew up Belphegor so many times. Actually, besides having four arms... Belphegor also has two under his crotch.]
[In the original work, this old man has done many disgusting things. I actually prefer to kill him, but there's no need to rush. According to the plot, he will soon die at the hands of others.]
Have what? Wait...
Now that the girls thought about it some more. Belphegor had four arms, he was different from other demons. But not only arms, he also seemed to have two of those things under his crotch?!
Rias and the others shuddered. Putting on expressions of disgust, especially when they were sure Belphegor was a very ugly person behind his mask. A man like this dared to desire their bodies? Just thinking about it was terrifying.
They wondered why Eiji didn't kill Belphegor, but they soon calmed down after hearing that the disgusting man would die at the hands of someone else.
Not knowing who that person was, they didn't care. They were relieved that at least they didn't have to get their hands dirty to kill scum like Belphegor.
After the commotion in front of the castle door was settled. Balflear immediately proceeded to lead Eiji and the others into the castle, he kept the things he was worried about in his heart.
Basara was silent during the journey, even though he had been trained by his father for the past three days and his power had increased greatly. Looking at Eiji who was walking beside him, he sighed...
It seemed that the power gap between them was still very wide.
Eiji didn't care what Basara might think, before Balflear brought them to their room. It seemed he was taking them to meet the Demon Lord first.
In a hall that was grander and larger than the Wildart castle hall with the same red carpet, sitting on the throne ? a brown-skinned youth with long purple hair stared at Eiji and the others. Except for his face, his entire body was covered in black armor with a purple cape behind his back.
There was a faint smile on the young man's face, Leohart was obviously in a good mood after seeing what happened at the door of his castle.
"I'm sure my adjutant, Balflear already said it. But welcome to Lundvall Castle."
"I apologize for what Belphegor did. I didn't greet you right away and just watched as that guy made trouble."
The current Demon Lord was younger than they thought, he even honestly admitted the bad thing he did and apologized.
Eiji knew Leohart was indeed like this in his original work, at least he wasn't as evil as the people from the Demon Council. But still, Leohart was also not a good person because he just watched as Belphegor stopped them at his door.
Eiji even knew this person was laughing as Belphegor was humiliated.
This was Leohart, the younger brother adopted by Laila in the original work.
"I am Leohart, the current Demon Lord. Nice to meet you, Eiji Seiya. That guy's son, Basara Toujou. The girls of the Hero Clan and the others and... Wilbert's daughter, Mio Naruse."
"This is the first time we've met."
Leohart's gaze looked at Eiji seriously because he knew that person possessed terrifying magic. He knew Eiji was powerful based on the strength he showed when humiliating Belphegor. Not sure how strong it was, but Leohart was not afraid and did not lose his confidence.
The aura Leohart felt from Basara was weaker than Eiji's, but compared to Eiji whose power limit was mysterious and incapable of being seen by him, Basara could still be slightly seen by him and seemed to be no worse than him. The girls, although Leohart could only sense them vaguely because everyone here did not release their auras, Leohart knew they were not simple.
Especially Wilbert's daughter, Mio Naruse who was rumored not to be that strong was actually staring at him indifferently and not losing her cool in front of the leader who sent people to watch over her in the human world. One of them was Lars who had died mysteriously, and Zest who was previously Zolgear's servant who defected to the Moderate Faction. The latter was also with the group standing in front of him and looked at him calmly.
"Mio Naruse, don't you have anything to say?"
"Say what? Do you want me to do this?" The moment Mio said that, a crimson aura enveloped her body. Unlike in the original work where her aura only slightly affected Leohart. This time?
*Boom!*
The majestic hall with many giant pillars shook and Leohart who was sitting on the throne ? his pupils shrank, he hurriedly released his purple aura to block the terrifying gravitational pressure that could crush his body if he was even a little late!
"Your Majesty!" Balflear panicked, he glared at Mio and Leohart hurriedly raised his hand.
"It's okay Balflear, I'm fine. Mio Naruse, you are indeed Wilbert's daughter. This tournament won't be easy..."
Leohart smiled bitterly, but still looked at Mio with confidence. The girl's power was indeed strong, even now, as long as he retracted his demonic aura, he would be implanted under his own throne. But Leohart himself had yet to show his true power and still had the confidence to win.
Mio was the same, she had only shown a little of the results of her training on Leohart. It wasn't even a quarter of her current power. If Leohart knew this, he would definitely change his mind.
Mio suddenly understood why Eiji liked to pretend, let the enemy think you are strong, but not so strong that they don't lose confidence. Don't be too weak because it will be annoying to let yourself be underestimated. After feeling the awaited moment coming, make them desperate with your true power and that's what is called - Slap Face.
[I feel like Mio is thinking something bad. I don't know where she learned from. But hey... Leohart was lucky not to make that girl angry enough to turn him into Patty Demon Lord before the tournament started.]
The girls looked at Eiji. Didn't Mio learn from you?
Too bad... No mirror here.
Tsubaki considered taking out her Miror Alice... But forget it, she also enjoyed watching Mio cooking.
"Thank you." Mio said and retracted her aura.
That's all you said?
Leohart's lips twitched, he also retracted his aura and turned his gaze to Basara.
"Jin Toujou's son... Where is he? He didn't come with you?"
Basara's identity made Leohart a little worried because Jin might also help the Moderate Faction. If that happened, Leohart thought the chances of his Faction winning were getting slimmer. As for Eiji? Leohart still thought he could still beat him as long as he was serious. Some of the rules he set to the detriment of his own Faction such as the Moderate Faction's three wins being enough to win the match even though it was a seven-game duel also seemed to have to be canceled.
It was better to play fair because the Moderate Faction he saw now could not be underestimated.
"Yes...and no. My father is not planning on participating in this battle."
Basara continued, "I actually don't know what my father is thinking."
[Hahaha! If I don't know the original work, I suspect Basara is joking.]
[But yeah... Jin is a bit strange, or rather he likes to hide things from his son. He definitely hasn't told Basara why he keeps going to random places for no apparent reason is to look for his mother, Sapphire.]
The heroines on the scene fell silent.
"....."
If we didn't hear your inner voice, we also didn't know you were laughing out loud with that face.
Rias and the others shook their heads.
Leohart was relieved to hear Jin would not be participating. He did not show it on his face and just nodded.
"I see, it's a pity I couldn't see God of War and didn't have the chance to clash swords with him."
"....."
Leohart turned his gaze on Eiji who looked bored.
"And you Eiji Seiya. You're strong, I?"
"I'm sorry but can we immediately go to the room that has been prepared?"
Eiji was too lazy with this conversation. To be honest he would rather the tournament be held right away and they stand on the arena to hit each other.
But damn, even after getting here, they still had to wait.
